    Ok, here’s what i took from this video:
    1/ Avoid giant flat walls (bc they are harder to fill with decor)
    2/ Try to make each side of the house look a bit different from eachothers (to create visual interest and make the build less monotonous)
    3/ Build struts to make it pop (its like an outline but in 3D)
    4/ Go outside, touch grass, look at houses irl for inspiration (style, color pallet)
    5/ It’s like drawing, go from general basic shapes, to refining those shapes match your vision, and then add details to increase visual interest
    6/ Like in drawing, small additions can make huge impacts on how the build looks, so go easy on the detail work

    I personally find it best to practice with villages. Not actual village homes, but extend the end-points of these villages with additional houses as big as the ones in the village.
    Experiment with different techniques big and small, practical and extravagant, until you’re ready to build the MUCH bigger houses for yourself and your friends.
    Eventually, you‘ll master a unique technique to your style. Even consider various materials and biome locations. The more you experiment, the more impressive your homes look, especially if they stand out or locate in obscure places like mountains, oceans, or even the Nether.

    Most of these tips are okay for most european architectural designs, but they fall short out of that context. For example if you decide to do any feudal era japanese architecture then long sweeping walls, narrow rooms, tall face structures and large mildly decorated cubic designs and small detailed and highly decorated gardens ponds or rivers are actually ideal in many situations.

      @@arcadicus_ezevius haha true. I think the real trick is to build your starter shack first, but then incorporating it into your future build and always keeping in mind that you can add ontop of what you already have (as well as below and sideways). You can always tear down a side of a home and extend it, or build a lookout tower on top etc, and maybe tie in a wall that runs through the side of your house and safekeeps your land behind your house etc for livestock and such. In essence, any build can turn into something new, so there's no reason to abandon what you already have, just because you want to build something of a greater vision.

    I watched this video as someone quite fluent with organic builds, but a little struggling with making interesting buildings. I really enjoyed it, and the tips are really good. I will say however the over-detailing thing you discussed with stairs/slabs/walls can be nice for certain parts of the build, specifically if you've got a stone foundation underneath that is visible, like on a hillside, it makes the foundation look nicer simply because otherwise there wouldn't be much there.

    Shape 0:43
    One big block/ shape ❌ Large sections of walls❌ Different sections and areas/shapes✅
    Shape is the first thing people see, not detail
    Every angle is considered in the roof (some roof on the 1st layer)
    Make random shapes
    Takes a bit of experimenting
    Balconies can be added, too
    Details come *second* to the shape
    Shape is the most important thing in building
    Roofs 11:43
    Staircase, block, staircase, block, etc. *bell curve*
    Slabs only *gradually going up*
    Staircase, 2-3 blocks, staircase, 2-3 blocks *steep*
    Blocks making a staircase *generic*
    Themes 14:22
    You can make a house with one shape and specific details and block choice and make the same thing changing only the details and block choice, but they will look completely different.
    Choose colors that compliment each other, and think about your pallet.
    Extras 17:32
    For people that are done, but not quite happy yet with how it turned out
    Window nestled inside the roof, and chimney make the roof look less bland
    Balcony, or platform, or...
    Garden, or a pathway next to the entrance
    Add an extra piece/story on the top/roof. This, and the first one can really fill the roof, and make it less flat
    Detailing 21:19
    ❌don’t spam slabs to fill.
    staircases to round the right edges
    Potted plants to add color
    Hoppers and cobblestone (looks like a support)
    *lights*
    Staircases and slabs under overhangs
    Don’t have to stop after roof
    ❌Not too crowded
    Add different colors

    On the topic of roofs: Bell-curve roofs tend to be used in colder regions because it's harder for snow to settle on them. Triangular roofs are used in temperate regions because rain deflects and runs off of them easily. Flat rooves are used in dry regions with little rain because it saves on building material. Reflect these in your builds!
    Edit: Yes, modern buildings around the world usually use the standard gable-style (triangular) roof. If you're building in a modern style, go ahead and do this. If you're building in a medieval/fantasy style, I suggest choosing the appropriate roof for your materials, environment and era.
