I'd like to enter please! Mid-tier (large house). I don't expect to win anything, but I had a lot of fun decorating my house and im always happy to show it off!


Svards House, West Eisley Bazaar, Tatooine, 1874, -4827

Decorator: Me! My main is Anstalt, second is Svard.

This is my only house, so it serves as both storage, crafting hub AND personal shop. As you might imagine, I ran into the item limit pretty quickly! This means some of my rooms feel a bit sparse, but I tried to get something into every room.

General theme I was aiming for was a kind of Morocco back-alley underworld vibe. Svard is a smuggler, and so I wanted to sell plenty of spice! Anstalt has some endgame loot to be selling too. So, the main room is kind of what I might imagine a black market dealer's shop would be like - friendly, ostentatious, with tables and chairs for passing out in if u take too much spice!


Anstalts Loot:
Pic below is of my loot vendor for my main. I wanted the big pillars to give the impression of looted statues: they are clearly out of place in this size of home! Some scattering of loot on the table, including crystals, some NS lances and a broken ADK. It was supposed to be bold, over-the-top, ostentatious: perfect for a guy selling loot!
https://i.ibb.co/9hxBWXy/anstalts-loot.png (https://i.ibb.co/9hxBWXy/anstalts-loot.png)

Operations Room
This one's a bit bare, but I wanted a back room where it looked like I could be planning missions, calling allies. Like a command centre. I need to replace the painting in the back corner with one of those big tall consoles, but otherwise it's OK.
https://i.ibb.co/r3yDcG1/svards-planning-room.png (https://i.ibb.co/r3yDcG1/svards-planning-room.png)

Spice Vendor
I wanted this to feel like a stall you might find in a Moroccan bazaar, so the vendor is out front, ready to talk your ear off! Spices on display, bit of decoration etc. I still need a "roof" to the stall, but I've yet to find something that fits well

I'll enter, if for no other reason than to get this going a bit. Just a small generic house where I have my shop:

At the moment there's just crafting stations in the back but I may add to it if I get the chance.

Yes, our fine guild/city would like to participate as well. I do most of the deco and I am very much a minimalist, so my buildings are intentionally not as 'busy' as others. I also like to do things in other areas of the larger buildings, so feel free to explore. Lastly, I do try to drop and easter egg or two here and there.

All structures are in the city center of The Wildlands on Dantooine, just west of the Mining Outpost. Easily shuttled to, or ride the 800m, your call.

Easter eggs abound in Nika, so dont forget to look around. Some are more obvious than others, but all are one degree of separation from Star Wars. You get to figure out how ;) Have fun!!

Designer : Omens
Location : Corellia -454, -5454

Concept : Sine original servers, I like these "Cabinet de Curiosités" houses, showing visitors how rich is SWG with exotic and fun items to decorate house.
I think it is pulling up curiosity and make visitors want to explore quests and planets to find these rarities.
With time these kind of houses tends to transform into small Museums.

Decorator: Blu Fintuna

Holography inside the Blu Hole Lounge is strictly prohibited- it's a feast for the senses that reproductions only serve to cheapen.

Instead, please enjoy this collection of holos taken from the Lounge's exterior. They should convey a sense of its ouvre.

If you haven't been before, I encourage anyone with some free time and a repulsorcraft to pay it a visit.

The plan was to accommodate as many SWG creatures as possible, while creating an interesting living environment for both player and fauna! We ran out of available item count many times, but enjoyed producing the final result.
There is a "Find the Bantha Dolls" starting point in main room if anyone wishes to have a go.

The SWGEmu Events Division


Thank you everyone for your submissions,


This was not easy. While touring every submission, we were amazed by the creativity of our players! From the small detail, to the use of items in new and exciting ways, I want to commend every designer that has put work into these inspiring creations!


However, as this was a contest, we did have to make some difficult choices. After consultation with Mobyus and Natasa, we have come to the following decisions:


For the Small Tier Buildings,


We have decided to award Griwo with a standout showing, where small details and unique decoration ideas set it apart from the others in this category.


For the Mid Tier Buildings,


We have decided to award Blue Fintuna's The Blu Hole Lounge with an exceptional and creative use of items, and recommend everyone give it a visit at some point.


For the Large Tier Buildings,


Though competition for this was toughest, Oddwan's take on a Zoo stood out, and the attention to detail used showed us the time and care that was put into it, which is why we decided to go with him.


For our winners, if you can reach out to me in PM here on the forums, I will get a bit of information from you and we'll get your rewards prepared.


Thank you for all your work, and thank you Mobyus and Natasa for helping with making these decisions!

Misk, despite none of your entries winning, I want to say that they are also extremely well done and worthy of people checking out. If it's any consolation, both your "Stormbucks Cantina" and the cloning facility by you, Janarb, and Vorkin tied for 2nd place and were each only 1 point behind the winner.

Thanks Moby, good to know (for next time, lol). It really was just nice to be able to showcase the work for everyone :) Weve got a “Sea World” in the works as well in the Marketplace and most of the merchant tents are themed as well.

Have a good and safe 4th everyone!
