Great stuff. Now if only zos would give us triangles in each style to infill the point of roofs!

[@JDog_Unchained]

ESO housing is top notch. Definitely the true endgame

[@Sam-pb8ym]

That was a great showcase, thanks for the good ideas! Love your furnishing tips and the music selection, thanks for sharing!

[@MarinaMercy021]

Awesome !! You are truly inspiring and very informative, thank you so much !

[@tammywilliams2035]

Thank you for the stream. You forgot about the Fargrave structural elements too.

[@BBRocker75]

I LIKE YOUR DESIGN STYLE! Tx u, i got many new ideas to work in my houses. Specially those greeny stones to use like plaftform floor. My respect!

[@stimuluss]

I like how you show each style & it's potential, gives me more ideas to work with. Amazing, keep 'em coming! 👍

[@Kalam0n]

Thank you! Will do!

[@kieranb7747]

you sound like wendell@@Kalam0n

[@mistyriennett5902]

Great ideas, thank you for sharing.

[@timothypridell357]

Very well done. Ty

[@RavenStarrsEpicExplores]

Love watching how others build I could literally sit through a 5 hour tutorial easily lol😅 gives me ideas not only in eso but in No mans sky & Fallout 76 on different styles. Great vid! New subscriber!

[@Kalam0n]

10 hour version coming soon! lol

[@dancincoolkid]

Just found your channel! Been bingeing your building/decorating videos, love your style! I don't even play ESO but I play other TES games (Oblivion, Skyrim and Daggerfall mostly, although I do still play Blades from time to time). Your builds make me wanna try it out though! Hopefully I can catch stream sometime.

[@Kalam0n]

That's awesome! ESO was sort of my introduction to TES, I never really got into the single player games, but I've thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Tamriel.

[@WompWompNootNoot]

I love that they add more and more structures with every patch. I hope we'll eventually get some empty plots of land we could buy to build our own house. Similarly to Doomchar Plateau that has the big empty platforms.

[@Kalam0n]

For sure! Something like Moon Sugar Meadow but that's not crown store exclusive would be ideal. Coldharbor Real Estate is okay, but I don't really love the vibe.

[@davidhurcombe6505]

Some nice little rooms there. One tip I'd give is if you're making a structure with the same wall section next to or directly above the first one you placed, place a second, third etc on top then precision edit up or to the side and it will stay in line or be at the same height as the initial one. You may need to shunt it a fraction to line up perfectly but it does save time especially when making larger structures.

[@Kalam0n]

Great tip!

[@gabrielmaytin3513]

I love your videos! Can you do a series where you furnish some more manors you may have? I take a lot of inspo from your videos in my ESO housing.

[@Kalam0n]

I've been working on Stillwaters Retreat for a couple months now - should be ready to share soon! I don't normally go for premium homes, but I had to make an exception for this one.

[@amdteng]

Thx for the awesome guide and insight. Nice selection of structures and samples of housing designs. I unfortunately have to skip high isles for now due to not having the xpac. Now...the only thing that have been wanted by the housing community yet zos still do not want to give are straight ladders that we see in those libraries and certain npc houses and spiral ladders lol. One thing good about the housing structures from elsweyr up till now is that the structure can be mix and match quite easily while not looking awkward and out of place. I'm honestly curious to see necrom's expansion housing structures since that one will definitely look different compared to the previous expansions and how players creatively integrate into the current furnishing structure lineup.

[@Kalam0n]

You can always find stuff on guild traders - perhaps a bit overpriced at the moment due to lower supply though. I would love to see ladders and custom portals even. It would really open up possibilities for interior designs.

[@DS-lk3tx]

This is great. Most of my problem is just not knowing what to look for. Theres so much stuff and half of it will fry the bank. 😂

[@Kalam0n]

We need a furnishing bag ASAP. I love all the new furnishings they've been adding, but I want to fill a vault with dozens of every furnishing, so I have the full palette at my disposal.

[@sw5949]

This is cool. Can you do one for carriages? Redoran canopies and other beds or things being cobbled for fantasy carriages :)

[@Kalam0n]

That sounds like a really cool idea! I've seen other people make them but I haven't tried my hand at it. I'll definitely see what I can do and if I come up with something good I'll be sure to share it!

[@ItsPaosis]

Amazing content! Sadly I can’t go and see them as I play on EU. What roof was it you used for the leyawiin style?

[@Kalam0n]

I believe you're looking or the Elsweyr Platform, Stepped - eso.mmo-fashion.com/elsweyr-platform-stepped/

[@ItsPaosis]

Ah correct, thank you! :)

[@Maximusrex4575]

I like that ZOS keeps improving the selection of peices and how they fit together, but also wish they would go back and add that for older styles. Maybe with them now focusing on longer stories again it will give them some room to do that. If players aren't in a hurry for Shimmering Sand, run the heck out of the Elsweyr event when it is up doing the dailies across all alts, you will have hundreds when done. Elsweyr and Summerset both always give their crafting style materials from their dailies, sadly ZOS seems to have moved away from that in Blackwood and High Isle.

[@Kalam0n]

Agreed on the first part for sure. I don't hate how they are kind of adding those pieces through appropriately thematic expansions, but I could also really use some HQ Bosmer furnishings.

[@skeletonbuyingpealts7134]

Odd question here, do you know which of the inn rooms comes with a Hlaalu Canopy Bed in the pre furnished option? It wasn't the penthouse, and I think the bed was raised

[@Kalam0n]

Looks like you might be thinking of the Amaya Lake Lodge according to this site: en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Hlaalu_Bed,_Canopy

[@darkcasthorror]

Out of curiosity where do you actually go to porchase these? Im a new player and i checked multiple home furnishing and achievement furnishing merchants and no luck.

[@Kalam0n]

Most of the structural furnishings are crafted. You can find the recipes by completing daily quests in the related zones, sometimes in containers in the zone, or for sale by other players through Guild Traders. That being said, crafted furnishings are often more expensive because they can require expensive materials to craft. The 'Solitude' set is one of the cheapest because the style material required is very common, whereas something like 'Fargrave' is very expensive due to the recipes requiring a disproportionate number of style mats and those materials being far more rare. All that being said, the easiest way to acquire structural furnishings is through other players or guild traders. If you play on PC you can use us.tamrieltradecentre.com/ to search guild traders for specific pieces and eso.mmo-fashion.com/furnishings/ to peruse the complete catalogue of furnishings. Hope this helps!

[@breezeezz]

do you have any suggestion on which house to buy build a village?

[@Kalam0n]

Moon Sugar Meadow is probably the most common I've seen. Very scenic with plenty of open space and relatively cheap for a crown store exclusive. I used part of the Hall of the Lunar Champion for mine and I've seen some very creative work done there but you have to work around existing structures. Coldharbour Real Estate is good if you don't mind the gloomy vibes. Hunter's Glade is probably the coolest. Which means it's also the most expensive, and crown store exclusive. But the full moon and enchanted forest vibe are really nice. Of course, it's only available for purchase like once every 2 years.

[@TehDynamo]

How do you get coloured lights

[@Kalam0n]

There are a ton of sources, I'd suggest taking a look at the Enchanted Lighting database on ESO Fashion: eso.mmo-fashion.com/category/database/item-type/furnishing/lighting/enchanted-lights/ Some of my personal favorites are available from the Luxury Vendor / are resold on Guild Traders. Glowing Green Flowers: eso.mmo-fashion.com/flower-coda/ Glowing Teal Mushroom: eso.mmo-fashion.com/mushroom-glowing-trumpet/ Glowing Blue Flowers: eso.mmo-fashion.com/wedding-blossoms-blue/

[@TehDynamo]

@@Kalam0n omw the king replied thank you so much!! Il have a watch now

[@TehDynamo]

@@Kalam0n mind me asking where can i buy the deed for the house to make it a guild house i cant find anything on google or youtube

[@Kalam0n]

Sadly there's no such thing as an official guild hall in ESO. Most guilds will have a high ranking member setup their primary home as the 'guildhall' and then mention it in their charter. That way you just look up the member in the list and travel to their primary home. I hope we get a better system someday.

[@TehDynamo]

@@Kalam0n makes sense! I've been teying to get my house to turn into guild house for my guild members to use but cant seem to get it working only way is for them to visit and travel on me thats sucky! But yeah now i know i cant and not to waist my time hehe!

[@JoyOfSnarks-ms9vr]

Wow so if I just fiddle with 5-10 pieces for an hour I can get a box with a stairway! Dude you are so fussy you moved every piece like 50 times!

[@Kalam0n]

Haha, bit of a perfectionist I suppose.
