You’ll have plenty of opportunity to expand and decorate your house, but it’ll take some time, effort, and materials to do so. We’ll show you how to obtain your house, how to add onto it, the different ways you may modify it, and how to expand your housing plots.
How To Obtain A House
After completing the main quests,Learning the RopesandSpiffy It Up, your next quest will beHouse, Sweet House. Kenli, the mayor, will help you get the foundation of your house together.
Use theAdvanced Housing Menu with the “H” key, and place down your Harvest House foundation wherever you’d like, though you may need to clear out some space for it due to its large size.
Interact with the standeein front of the foundation. you’re able to check the materials you’ll need and deposit them as you obtain them or all at once. In total, you’ll need100 Sapwood Planks and 35 Stone Bricksfor your house.
If you haven’t already obtained asmelter and sawmill, you’ll get two additional quests,Plank by PlankandBrick by Brick.
These introduce who to buy the sawmill and smelter from,AshuraandHodari, and how to start making refined materials with them.
The recipes for Sapwood Planks and Stone Bricks will beautomatically unlocked as soon as you obtain the smelter and sawmill.

How To Use Wallpaper And Flooring
Alongside furniture and various decorations, you also canindividuallycustomize the walls and flooring of your home. Your first sets of wallpaper and flooring will likely come from completing the main questHouse, Sweet House,which rewards you with both Natural Wood Paneling and Apothecary Stone Flooring.
First, you’ll need them in youraction bar. From there,scroll onto them and use themlike you would if you were eating a food dish or placing an item.
You’ll enter into a menu similar to when placing and moving furniture, and from there you canindividually paste wallpaper onto each wallof your house, andflooring onto each room’s floor. Wallpaper is alsousable on the outside of your home, and can be put oneach sideof any given housing room addition.
Since you add wallpaper or flooring per surface, you canmix and match different wallpapers and flooring.
Adding wood floors to bedrooms or living rooms and smooth stone flooring types to a kitchen area can really spice up your design. The same applies to wallpapers for different room types!
Where To Purchase Housing Additions
Initially, you have access to a 11x11 room with the Harvest House, but it can get cramped quickly, especially if you enjoycrafting and decorating with furniture. You canadd onto your housewith different sized rooms and sections that you’ll need toprovide the materials for.
Similar to Writs andCrafting Licenses, housing additions arepurchased from the Kilima City Hallfor Gold. All of them have a base cost, butrepeated purchases of the same additionwill have a slightly increased price.

There’s a limit of 15 Housing Additions in your plot, but some items –the Fireplace, Kilima Porch, Kilima Door, Gazebo, and Windmill– do not count towards this limit.
How To Add Rooms And Additions To Your House
Once you’ve purchased any additions, the foundation of them will become available for placement in theAdvanced Housing Menu.
When it comes to room additions, such as the Small Room, Palia works on asystem similar to puzzle pieces.
Each room, other than the Harvest House, hasfour pointsof contact, with one on each side of the structure, and you canconnect rooms togetherby linking them point to point. Empty points of contact are signified by apale orange circle,and when two rooms can properly link together, the circle will thenchange to green.
Housing Additions like the Fireplace and Porch work in the same way: you candrag and connect them to a roomas long as there’s sufficient space. Once a room or addition’s construction is complete, any wall pieces will bereturned to your inventory or storageif they no longer fit on the wall.
For example, you may connect two Porches to two different Large Rooms, and havemultiple entrances to your home. This can give you a more direct access point to a storage room or kitchen.
You can also connectmultiple Hallway Sectionstogether to make a long hallway between rooms, but be careful of the building limit.
How To Modify A Room’s Window Or Doorway Style
As of Patch 0.168, you now have the ability tomodify the style of window or doorway styleof any given room.
From theAdvanced House Menu, you’re able to select the edit button – signified by thewhitesquare and pencil icon– above a room, and you’ll see a radial menu with the available options.
Single or Double
Double, Single, or Open Concept
Hallway
Single or Open Concept.
Like with adding a new room or addition, any wall items that no longer fit will be returned to your storage or inventory.
How To Obtain More Housing Plots
As you add more housing additions, crafters, and soil squares to your plot, you’ll find that you start to run low on space. When that happens, you’ll need toexpand your plot size with Writs.
Writs can bepurchased at Kilima City Hallfrom the cash register sitting on the front counter and each one costs asmall amount of Renown. Initially, Writs start off at 20 Renown, but theprice willgradually increase as you buy themand caps out at 100 Renown by the final purchase.
There are39 Writsavailable to purchase that correspond to the39 additional housing plots you can unlock. You’ll need a total of2,410 Renownfor all of them.
To use them, you’ll need to go to your housing plot and access theAdvanced Housing Menu. Select any locked plot, and you’ll get a prompt asking you if you want to unlock it for one Writ.
