I would like to see the bio dome style homes in a seasonal setting. Homes that are a step away from the traditional styles of late. More diverse like Neon styled homes, underwater fantasy zones with glass tunnels for vehicle travel, Croft style homes of Scotland in seasonal settings, UFO enviroment styles for us aliens. English Tudor style, outback shacks of Australia, Provence homes of France, Umbria homes of Italy. A new design for the chalets homes. Smaller dinkie sized homes added for us tiny worlders. Especially a hobbit style home that is built into hills, seasonal. Fun homes, that embrace and evoke the diverse and fun atmosphere of sl with Fruit shaped homes, who wouldnt like to live in a giant peach. The seasonal aspect is a great idea and so breaks the monotony of the forever beach sun. More homes spread fairly out for each of the paid for memberships.

Craftsman houses, please! But only if you can build them to have some of the features of a craftsman: built-ins, nice moldings, square column bases on the front porch and maybe a gable across the front. They were on the list last time round!

What about an Australian themed with Queensland homes? It's a huge continent with lots to choose from.

Following on from previous , fruit, cyberpunk unsersea, etc suggestions to new linden home suggestions.
The following suggestions cropped up regularly. Bio dome homes, including creating a themes surrounding a central structure , illustrations kindly supplied by an enthusiastic friend. Proposal was based off using an existing product in world already.
1 - bio dome homes. Utilising the Aspens glass & seasonal landscape. Domes could use the Tiki's for structure. Vary sizes for the 3 memberships, especially the plus 512's. The camper landscape would suit that. The PP could use the Meds landscape & the Premium could use any of the existing landscapes. Magical effect achieved by utilisation of the fantasy theme.
2 - Large central structure, example a suggestion was a large dominant tree extending up skywards, with roads, rail etc along the branches. Communities living in one structure. Although air traffic might be impeded. It would be unique theme to standard land only townships.
Even to a suggestion a tree could be used horizontally, IE a fallen tree, represented below.
Photo concepts included with permission.

Adding the other my other previous suggestions in full in their own posts & images to this. Space/alien, Fruit, Undersea, Cyberpunk, Cat, Hobbit shire & quirky shell house.
All that utilise existing themes & house components & components & with a range to suit all memberships.

I kind of like this concept -- especially since it seems flexible enough to accommodate quite a variety of different homes and environments underneath the domes. You could have a mix of "futuristic" Buck Rogers-esque structures, brass-and-glass "steampunk"-inspired ones, "alien" homes, etc., to further the illusion that each dome is its own environment.

Kester Eddingham They would be very flexible & creativity very much so. Lot of the theme suggestions photos were based initially on in world linden homes, just upping the norm to the... creativity unleashed environments. All down the creative genius of the Moles if the Lindens give the nod to take on such an endeavour & embrace such wilder environments.

Actually, I'd like to make one more suggestion and you might like it. I'm underwater theme for for mermaids i know that's another community that's somewhat overlooked. Not to mention, since it's underwater, I don't know the above SIM could also act as a sailing region as the water could go very deep
Smiler Claus
nathkyo Resident That comes up a lot, I did put a post showing some concept art from a mer wishing a undersea theme would occur, shown also below that was deep ocean based, with glass tunnels for link up roads, train & allowing ships & submersibles to use the waters.

Castles big and small ones

Magical XOXO well damn i just posted my eternal medieval castle idea and just saw your comment!

Seems like several people below have expressed the same thought, so let me add to the chorus:
REAL "Fantasy" homes, please! We need Wizard Towers, Abbot's Retreats, Hobbit Homes... not just "suburban tract house with a few vaguely Elvish-looking bits tacked on", which is currently about all Fantasseria has to offer (and which are in no way ("perfect for residents coming from Elderglen" as the notecard claims). Someone needs to go back and re-watch "Lord of the Rings", "The Dark Crystal", "Willow", "The Neverending Story", "Labyrinth", "Krull", "Ladyhawke", and other high-fantasy films to see what _real_ epic-fantasy-inspired structures look like.

Kester Eddingham Amen to this!!

Kester Eddingham Yes to aiding the community of fantasy folk.

More cats. This is important.
Smiler Claus
Charlemagne Allen Like this , concept art created by a dinky cat herself. Although she said this was more evil kitty town style.
Fauve Aeon
Bigger more ornate Victorians for PP, 2nding Garden Dist, NOLA themes, and something spooky, could be mixed with Shotgun style for 1024 and a Quarter Square for 512. Still stumping for 'light business' - with a limited number of vendors per parcel in some kind of residential/commercial theme.
