There are limitless ways to build and create
in Minecraft, and houses are no exception.
We'll cover a few creative ideas to build your home.
Use the clickable sections
to skip to specific steps in the process.
First, find a spot you'd like to start your build at.
A good way to start
is to plot out the size of your house
using the corner pillars.
We're going to use simple blocks for this build,
so we'll use spruce logs for the pillars.
Now let's add a foundation made of cobblestone.
It's nice to use as many different blocks as possible
to vary your build.
Let's switch to oak planks and build our walls.
And now we can add our front door
and put in some windows using glass panes.
Now we can start on the floor.
With the floor in place, let's make the roof.
A common way of making roofs
or any other slanted object in Minecraft
is to use stairs.
Now that the shell of the house is complete,
you can add more detail, like a chimney and fireplace.
You can use a campfire for a permanently burning flame.
The next step is the bedroom.
Since this house has a high ceiling,
we're going to make a loft.
We'll use oak for the loft floor
and spruce fence for the supports.
Then place a ladder to reach the room.
Plot down a bed, books, and other details
and add some lighting.
Let's move to the kitchen.
We can make a simple fridge
by stacking a dispenser on any block,
adding an iron door, and finally a button.
We can also use a cauldron as a sink
and use a couple of rails as a stove top.
Let's go back outside now
and add some oak leaves, lanterns, and a path.
Finish up the interior any way you like,
and you've got yourself a new Minecraft home.
