I'm currently involved in a house war with a couple of people in my guild (who can decorate their house thebest) and i've come up with an idea which might come off just right, but I wanted to get peoples feelings on it......
I've decided to roleplay my house 
The setup is that my char is a neutral rebel sympathiser and he, along with his rebel Bounty Hunterwife (my alt) have set up a smuggling business out of LOST city on naboo. He has joined the RSF so as to gaurentee easy passage to and from the planet...
Imagine a normal generic planetary guildhall, from the outside all that can be seen is an imperial banner and 2 tat tapestries hanging, as you go in the centrepiece of the main hall is a huge brazier (the one with the pipes above it) and in front of that is a protocol droid behind a reception desk. Along the side walls are some seats with more imperial pictures (the vader victory one and the no division onwe) on the wall alongside the lift is an AT-AT suit and helmet and a Tie Suit and Helmet. The centrepiece of the back wall is the giant model gong along with 2 of the bestine paintings (the blue starburst ones). The area behind that is filled with various paintings to make a major art collection for display.
As you stand with your back to the lift to the right is the waiting area and a small office for closing deals, again the set up is very neutral, with the waiting room seats being the yt1300 suite from the new vet rewards climbing the stairs from here we go to the top floor loading baywhich contains various starship parts, a number of storage crates and a Binary Load Lifter, stepping outside we have a landing pad for the ships to land on to dispose/collect cargo. Going through to the other side we have a workshop with an LE repair droid working on a number of broken items, also in here is a small desk with equipment on it for slicing (which can be easily hidden when a passing imperial patrol drop by). Down the steps from this side is a small rec area with a couple of seats and some book cases (where the slice equipment is stored when not needed).
Going downstairs in the lift there is the main bedroom to the left, to the right is the locked rebel war room, the next room up from there is the crafting room, to the left from there is a small prison complex for any undesirables that make it as far as the lift exit. The main room at the back is the operations centre for my enterprise. I have a number of technical consoles in here (including the one with the red panels on it) for monitoring, a few data terminals around the walls, but then I have taken 2 starship crafting stations and positioned them as the main viewers and workstations (complete with another LE repair droid working at it), to one side is a slightly lower data terminal which has an R2 unit working at it (i made this the unit that manages the flight computer for final landing)
Well, that's the layout which I hope will win me the contest, I'd like the opinions of fellow smugglers seeing as this seems to be one of the few professions that people tend to add a little roleplay to. I myself am not a hardcore roleplayer, but this just seemed like something that would be different and would actually stand out.
Oh and for anyone wondering, the current time it has taken to get it 3/4 finish is around 18-19 hours. (i miss my life.....)

The BLL is a craftable droid made by any DE. I simply got a DE in my guild to craft me the chassis (they are animated so no need to do anything more) He charged me 50K for all 5 and had to used my factory to run the parts needed for a BLL. I'm hoping to get some pictures this weekend. However I am looking forward to when they bring out the player events thing, cos im going to try to call the imp shuttle to land on my roof and then get some awsome pics..... I bet that wont work tho
