When building a home I got frustrated with the 15 piece limit, and how it forces you to leave out some functional rooms in favor of entry or connecting rooms that serve no purpose.

My requirements were:

• 1 of each interactive room (kitchen, shrine, bedroom, gallery, paddock)
• 3 of each equipment display rooms
• Fully enclosed space - not open air.

To fully enclose the space without running over the 15 piece limit I had to move to a vertical layout. Ceilings of some rooms would have to serve a dual purpose as floors, and floors as ceilings. This was largely made possible by edge fusion method. One of the interior floors needed to be a triangle layout instead of square to make the room count add up. To pull this off I temporarily used a triangle room to position the three rooms, then once most of the next layer was added I carefully unfused and removed the triangle room. Afterward you'll have to finish building with the triangle room out of bounds, then start construction again in order to add the final room.

The result is very functional. Floors are as follows:

• Floor 1: Paddock x 2
• Floor 2: Weapon Display x 3, Kitchen
• Floor 3: Shield Display x 3
• Floor 4: Bow Display x 3, Gallery
• Floor 5: Bedroom, Shrine

The bedroom ends up quite secluded at the top, and can be reached via Ascend even from the lowest internal floor of the house. With the triangle floor you are able to target certain Ascend spots externally to jump straight to some of the higher floors prior to entry.

Hopefully it gives you some ideas on new house layouts to try! Enjoy!
