Welcome to my Topic. This topic is all about an idea I thought up due to my experiences with Minecraft and building in this game. There is also a blog version of this on Planet Minecraft.
I've been playing this game for a while now, but only recently got into Modern building. And I'm pretty good at it as well, always making nice greenery, interiors, exterior shapes, etc. I've even chatted with some of the higher up there builders, on places such as the World of Keralis server. But recently, I hit a building block where I'd dislike alot of the things I was building, and I now think the reason behind this is that I feel Minecraft limits you when you build.
There are limited blocks, only square shapes, no curves or proper slants, limited greenery, no small details and overall limited materials for building. My idea is that a gamemode would be created, or a mod would be coded up made for those looking to go deep into the building aspects of this game, a way for them to build with more materials and shapes than in regular Minecraft.
The idea involves the coding of a game where we have more blocks and shapes and greenery, basically cramming ideas of real life archiecture and furnishing into a video game. Commands resembling those of World Edit would be added for builders to make things faster by creating large areas of material, and microblocks and alot of small blocks would be added, like the microblocks in FTB. This would allow for quicker building, easier building, and alot more custom and detailed creations.
This is a very brief description of my idea. I hope to get this idea popular enough that maybe even Mojang themselves would notice this and consider it, if it is a good enough idea. This would benefit any and all people interested heavily in building and architecture.
Please, add your own ideas and opinions below. Spread this idea through the MC community if you believe it would be a very nice addition to Minecraft / mod creation.
I like this, but i think there is no way this is included in vanilla minecraft. In a mod, of course!.
The only "architecture stuff" they could add in vanilla minecraft is "Soft" stairs. Like the stairs for wheelchairs, making possible to build "Circular like" things. The other thing they could do is making it possible to place slabs on walls (vertically), and generally moreversatility to those acts. Those are the only things (i think) they could add. But they must be asked and suggested independently and with detail. Not in a general way.
No support!

No support because you believe Mojang would never add it to Vanilla?! :/
Those are nowhere near the only things they could add. More woods, stones, greenery, decor blocks, small blocks (like flower pots), more materials overall should and can be added.
Until my idea is made into a mod or looked at by people who could possibly add it to Vanilla, I'm considering playing and building in FTB. Mainly because of the microblocks, and very wide variety of materials. However, I need a modern texture pack for this, and I think the only one out so far is Soartex, which I dislike. I'd love to have Flow's HD or Moartex for FTB.
This isn't The Sims 3. If you want to go build yourself a little modern white shack in Minecraft, you're best off looking for or making a mod for that. 'Nuff said.
