I actually don't think using black and white alternating would be better in most cases, since those colors are a bit too harsh. Having two colors that compliment one another is what I think is better, like the colors used in the screen shot.

It's just all a matter of opinion and preference. No option is correct.

I've tried to get Third to let me deco his empty Luna house for years after I applied Otim's design to it, but Third's a turd.

i dont enter the competitions cos i have all my house plots occupied :<

but i think the best houses are a synthesis of the custom house elements, and the item decoration. hard to do tho cos it means you have to know what you are making before you make it - you gotta have vision, not just wing it, and that's really tough - or at least i find it hard anyway, i tend to evolve things, adding and taking stuff away over time, rather than planning them out first. but if you wanna do it right, you really have to plan it out (like graph paper and all (i dont do that, but that's the proper way))

i cant knock my garden or my back house down, and i need to keep the TP hub.. plus the front house cant be too tall or it'll block the castle

ideas are welcome btw

I really like the one you did at the Makoto moongate. Is that the one you're entering?

I haven't decided if I'm going to enter or not, I have been pretty inactive and doubt I can pull something together by then, lol

it's a nice style, especially because it's consistent throughout, she's just a bit arrogant about it, so i white knight and devils advocate :beathorse:
it's not my style anyway

she didn't even get to my houses :roll:

(also just as an edit addition, there actually is a right way, it's graphic design 101 to use the colours from the pictures you have - or in this case, the placables, so the tapestry and bear rugs, also the wood, the fireplace. it's colour coded which is right. it *is* good design, it's by the book design. i suppose yeah it looks professional. which is good if that's what you want. but that's where your preferences come in. like, it can be good, but you can still dislike it, that's fine, but dont say it's shit. see i use a colour pallet, that's a bit different, it's like painting a picture. some people do monuments, some people do radar art, some people do 3D trippy magic type things which blow my mind.. there's loads)
