I think it'd be nice to have non-traditional style homes like pyramids and towers. Maybe have semi-translucent houses. I'm sure we can pull in a bunch of real-life architect students to design other possibilities.

/agree - give us something new for architechts to make - other than a few lootable items archi (and most crafting professions )base craftable items lists are WAY too stale

Awesome idea...
Also, I've always, always, always wished that they could come up with a system to allow architects to design completely original homes... Obviously, within a system-restricted template/size of some kind, but if that were ever possible, I'd be an architect in a heartbeat.

The amount of time and energy put into adding something like this to the game would be more than a dozen publishes and possibly the new expansion. There are entire programs out there which are incredibly expensive to cheap ( >.> <.<or free) that do a good/horrible job of what you're asking. To give an idea of the timeframe here: If they where somehow able to incorporate something like punch or, dare I dream it,CAD I'm sure you'd get an immense flocking to the architecture trade however all that code time would result in what? A more diverse landscape and interesting interiors 3% of the population are privy to see? Meanwhile they could have fixed every single bug in game, the bugs caused by fixing those bugs, add a handfull of quests, and reinstate FRS within the same amount of time. There're your pro's and con's.
