I would love to see a house like the one Owen had in EP IV, underground house with the entrance coming out to a square that has steps upleading to the world. with a moisture collector in the middle of the square.

you could make small medium and large houses that way and all take up less space on the outside since you could walk over them and not really know it was there

Actually I would like if they expanded on the existing blueprints, like adding a basement to houses that dont have them, make it so you can furnish your balconies and patios and create a way for architects to create their own house designs. After all, thats what architects in the real world do. Some originality and customization features among architects would really boost the fun for the architect profession.

Don't forget about us Corellian citizens. We've been stuck with Corellia-specific houses that are identical to generic houses.

It would also be great to have houses that have layouts specifically tailored for shops and cantinas. Large open rooms with no subdivisions and a small back room for storage and crafting stations.

Yeah I totally agree that the choices of housing are bland and too simple, and make the world look like one huge business district.

The Owen house is a great idea. I would be a tat medium size. If you have ever gone out to see the burned wreck of that house on tat, you will notice something. It is WAY TOO SMALL. Perhaps adding a player-craftable version will also allow them to repair this obvious problem. Jawas wouldn't live in that thing it is soo small.

Something has to be done to corellian and generic. They are boxy, have none of the room taht tat and naboo houses have, and are jsut plain ugly on the inside (my opinion, but I owned one for a long time in beta and no ammount of furniture could make it look less like a DMV office).

There are a lot of house styles out there that could be adopted. And it cant be horribly hard to make more styles. Perhaps SOE Devs can have a design contest to rework the interiors of existing houses. They suck, as we all know. Whoever designed them had a love of hallways that should be punished.
