I'm trying to make my house and some of my exhibit rooms follow (or loosely follow) a medieval theme, since I'm trying to base the layout of some of my rooms on some rooms in the Dragon Age series and use furniture that looks close to what the ones look like in the game or ones that I think would go well with the "theme" (even if it looks nothing like what I've seen in the game). I was surprised with how much of ACNL's furniture I could utilize to help achieve the layout and appearance that I want the rooms to eventually look like; however, there are still some things I wish there were in the game such as: more customization options as well as more of a variety and selections of each type of furniture. I like how there are different themes for each furniture and furniture set and I also like how each one is unique in their own way. What I would have liked to see in the game (since I ended up following through the idea of basing more than the flag and name of my town on Dragon Age concepts/designs/etc.), is not for the items be exactly like the ones in the games--that wouldn't make really any sense at all. What I'd like is that there being more desk type objects, different type of material that they're made out of, different and more color choices to customize them, maybe different/more shapes and maybe more sizes for the furniture. While I've found plenty (but not quite as much as I'd like) of furniture that would make the rooms look like the way I want them too, the limited choices of color and material for some furniture makes each furniture from a different set or different color stand out a lot and not in a good way.

For example, look at the ranch and modern wood furniture and the color choices you have. My rooms will be using a lot of modern wood furniture; I will also use some ranch furniture because the shape of the items seem to look close enough to what I need for the room. Take a look at my screenshots:

In the first screenshot, I'm trying to make it look like this. In the second screenshot, I'm trying to make it look like:

I can't find a good wallpaper for the room in the second screenshot (of my rooms in ACNL); and I wish I could change the color of the floor in it to grey.

The cabana chair is the closest I could find to match the red chair with the wooden border; the modern wooden lamp is temporary so ignore that; the cabin wardrobe and the plant is temporary (not sure about the mannequin). None of the colors that I could choose to customize the ranch bookcases go well with any of the darker color wood furniture.

Right now, I'm struggling to find a desk that could be used for a room like this and a long (and not round or square wooden table) wooden table.

There are other types of furniture I'd also like to see, but I'll save that for a another post. :P I've already said too much for one post.

I'd like to hear what everyone else would like an improvement on in customization, or in the types of furniture in ACNL. In other words: what types of furniture do you wish ACNL had, and customization options?
 
oh man. there's a lot of items in New Leaf that can't be refurbished, but I wish they could. the partition screen, for example. would like to put fabric on that. the dollhouse would be cute if it could be refurbished. would also like to be able to refurbish the different computer desks. I wish more of the food items could be changed too. why can't we change what's in the mixer? >: maybe some different option for the afternoon tea set too.
and I wish Gracie furniture could be refurbished! I'd love to be able to change the colors of the sweets and princess furniture...

OH! and more ore customization, please.

Being able to choose your recolor options would be nice. But as for another set I'd have liked to see...more wicker furniture. Like the cabana stuff, but more elegant. With cushions you could use custom patterns on, and customized the wood to white especially.
 
does it count that i wish i could customize my office area in the town hall? like, with a goldfish and the stationary set from the Post Office?
 
It would be nice to be able to refurbish the wallpaper and carpet of the refurbishable furniture sets, so the colours would match.
More colour options, new furniture sets and more house customization options (for the exterior).

I agree with this!


Also one thing I have wanted since City Folk is a backyard/patio area to decorate. Or a sunroom!


I want more toys to decorate with. And they need a generic kitchen counter.

I agree! I think some of the wallpapers colors clashed with my furniture that were all part of the same set as the wallpaper; and then, there were some wallpaper or flooring that I'd like if only they were in a different color.

I really like everyone's ideas and would like to see them all in the game if it were possible :P.

I was actually disappointed that after I remodeled town hall, nothing inside changed; but, even if it did, I think it'd be more fun like buzzing suggested, to be able to customize your office area. :)

I'd like to see more "food and drink" furniture. I have an exhibit room that I'm trying to make look a little like this, which is a tavern. I'd like to have more objects that were shaped like a type of beverage like a wine bottle, beer mugs (I understand there would probably be issues about this concept though, at least in the US :p); and also items that'd already have the beverages on them like how the alpine shelf has the plates on it, maybe something like that?
 
I can't customize the punching bags!! The tiny one, I can understand, but the larger one? I want to put Marshal's face on it!!
 
I wish I could customize the cardboard box; I'd want to make a design that resembles the one found on some of the cardboard boxes in the Metal Gear Solid series. :P
 
I wish wallpaper and flooring were customizeable. Some would just look better in a different color.
 
But anyway, I wish I could customize the outside of your home. Maybe a backyard or even more exterior designs? A jingle themed one would be really cute, I think. ^^

absolutely...

I think it's a bit silly of Nintendo having limits on the number of items you can refurbish, either you can or you can't...
why should players be confined in their creativity ?
 
^I agree. Also, I'd like to have the same color choices to customize a piece of furniture; it annoys me that some furniture I can't refurbish with red, with brown wood because either the color isn't available or the wood isn't customizable. Also, it'd be cool to have some different material options for each furniture, not just one certain set. I'd really like a rococo chair that's red and not pink. <.<
 
I wish for a set like the sloppy set (or in general) that we could use pants for the clothing fabric (and the clothing that's on the sloppy furniture be shaped like a skirt or pants ~ your choice). :P I'm customizing some sloppy furniture right now for a villager and it's irking me a little what I can and can't do. :P
 
I definitely thought of customizing the colors of walls and floors too :)

Oh, and they should totally have a Blanca doll where you can customize their face xD
 
I want to be able to change the cloth pattern on the rococo set, because I love the white set but wish it was all white instead of pink.

I want to change the wood color of the minimalist set. My house uses a lot of dark browns, but my kitchen is very light because I used some of the minimalist and alpine sets and I needed the wood of the alpine set to match that of the minimalist pieces. I'd like my kitchen more if it matched the rest of my house.

Speaking of kitchens I'd like to be able to change the colour of the kitchen cabinets, I forget what they're called, but everyone uses them and most kitchens look the same because of it.

100000% agree! It would be so much better. Major Gabi is gonna have a fancy frame with a butt in it cx
