There are four ways to make a structure look in some particular way.
There are four ways to make a structure look in some particular way.


The first is the specific arrangement of blocks. Curves can only be implied, but horizontal and vertical straight lines are very easy. Leaving more space suggests roominess, which minimal space will look cramped or busy.

The second is the selection of blocks. Unless they're being removed regularly or need to resist an opposing player, there's little functional difference between most blocks, so the color and texture of the block used is more important. Exceptions include [[Fire|burnable]] blocks near a [[campfire]], [[glass]] (which can let in light), and the ability of [[compost]], dirt, and [[sand]] to grow plants or [[tree]]s. Additionally, [[Reinforced Platform|reinforced platforms]] block the formation of back walls below them (although [[column]]s can be used to allow placing other types of blocks in the same way).
