      A few years ago I was building a small town with my cousin and I decided I would spend some hours making the best house I could. I ended up making a mansion of two symmetric giant parts with 5 floors, 8 beds, a heck lot of space and chests and stuff, a "common backyard" with some decorative stuff and more.
      That "minimalistic" house had 100 times the details of my entire mansion.

    9:28 in my opinion. if your gonna build something with a flat roof you should make it a completely different colour. stone usually works best. and add some details like vents, small chimneys or skylights, this design usually works good when building post-war British houses or tower blocks. if you make a bunch of houses that are conjoined into a row of terraces. then you get the top and the sides of the wall that separates each house. make the wall a different colour, preferably a darker colour, then make it stick out from the rest of the building and add a stone or different coloured slab on top. do it to the end of the last house as well as it doesn't look normal if you don't and most houses after the war have a different colour on the end. slightly slanted roofs work well for post-war architecture. make sure that the shape isn't super complicated as most buildings of that time are mostly square with maybe one or two parts of the building sticking out. this goes for most post-war office buildings or flats. I wouldn't doe this kind of building tho if your trying to show off your building skills as it is really simple to do and doesn't have that mush detail as it's mainly curved roofs and unique shapes that make a building look complicated.

    The "defying the laws of physics" thing is a thing in modern architecture. It's called a "cantilever" where the frame extends into the building and the weight of the rest of the building keeps it in place. But yes, a cantilever that big does look odd.

      Personally I make a bunch of boxes on the floor for a basic shape and an idea for how big it's going to be. After that, I will start making my frame (Mostly out of wood logs) and after thats done, step back and look at it, see if it has the potential for extra stories or just leave it a single level house. After you decided and built your frame, start with the outline of the floor and try to work your wall in between the frame and the floor's outline

    Actually overdetailing is similar to organised detailing. The difference is, the normal detailing is mostly symmetrycal, it is concentrated in the corners and edges the max, overdetailing is the same but the detailation is not that symmetrical and is spread almost randomly on the build with no precise manner.

      Yes, Minecraft it's a game about doing whatever you want. But unless you are a 4 year old (no offense indeed) or you are just fooling around, placing blocks just because, you will want to make a design that is pleasant to look at. And to achieve this, you'll have to follow some rules about design. And that's the point of this video.

      I like building with dirt, it can be mined my hand and if you build correctly you can grow grass on each floor and have green carpeting and balcony's with green on them, then throw in vines and 2 thick floors with 1 block of water and you have a vine and whatever you want farm and house all in one, use sand to make walls around the house so if a creeper blows them up, the wall will close the hole automatically. My house is usually symmetrical and square on purpose as it makes setting up red stone circuits easier. :)

      Especially RP servers like the one I'm in. Entire cities spanning 300 blocks high and ungodly amounts of blocks across, lagging you to 3 FPS as soon as it comes within your render distance.
      And god forbid that a fight should break out. True Story: The entire server lagged so hard during a major war in the elven capital (the most overbuilt thing on the server) that most of us couldn't even log in, those that did were standing still and zipping around from lag, and then the SERVER CRASHED. Someone recorded the chaos and I made a GIF of it: imgur.com/0oSt2pd
      Thanks, overly-complex builders.

      Dude, it's SIMPLE, how are you still not getting this?
      You go through the 4x4 vault door, down the stairs, past the skeleton grinder, into the enchanting room, place a torch 3 blocks to your right to trigger the hidden passage behind the bookcase, go down the hidden passage and to the LEFT, cause the right leads to a lava trap, use the slime trampoline to get into the slime farm, go around the outside of that and you'll find a one block hole with a ladder, don't go down there it's full of zombies with enchanted armor and swords, don't ask, put the keycard i gave you earlier into the fish tank left of the ladder hole, and then go down the hidden staircase that opens up, go straight from the bottom of the staircase and make sure you open the 3x3 spiral door not the 3x3 hipster door, cause there's a bunch of hoglins behind that, then past the apiary, and get into the elevator that takes you to the top of the mountain and THAT'S where the bamboo is stored. HOW many times do i need to explain it?
