Types of Houses?

Has there been much released on what housing will be like?

I saw a couple tidbits here and there, and I've visited a couple of the house locations in-game and wandered around. I believe, though I could be wrong, that we will be able to craft furniture?

What I am really curious about, however, is the types/styles of houses. I imagine that house styles will be within the setting where they are, so the house in Alik'r desert will be of Redguard style. So you wont find a Dunmer house in the middle of Glenumbra. But what about more non-conventional homes? Ships? Caves? Tents? I don't suppose there is any possibility of those?

Does anyone know of any links that have more information on what housing will be like?

    Here are the houses that are in the game.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    i need my home to be 1 room hole in the ground hidden in the bushes so is a bit more discrete, and not out in the open.
    i live in secret and work for dark brotherhood and thieves guild type lifestyle.
    i dont have alot of gold so, something like this for about $100,000 Gold is just what i need.
    here below i show an image of the door to the home i am looking for.

    From what I can see its going to be a tough decision. Some are in zones I don't like but the majority are very nice locales.

    My decision will come down to if we have fast travel to our homes or not. If we don't, then I think Rawl is the place I will live. I'm not sure I've seen another house that's closer to a wayshrine.

    I can't find the Argonian House at Alren Corimont for the life of me. If anyone has more detailed location information than somewhere around there, I would appreciate it greatly.

    Oh I want a ship. One of those ornate carved ones found in Hew's Bane would be preferred but any big ship would do.....

    Or a cave. That could be awesome. Something similar to the TG hideaways.

    @Abeille - read the link - ta - have had a look at some, now may go & check out others later - wondering then which would be crown store & which in game gold (if in the damn crates there will be a riot....).

    It’s all utterly ridiculous.

    ZOS said housing will be gold-based, not crown-based :)

    Small apartment (inn rooms, I think?) available for free through a quest.

    Not that they won't add Crown stuff later, but these that will be (I assume) available at release will be sold for gold.

    Thanks for the link. There's a lot of nice looking houses. When it's time, I'm going to have a hard time deciding...
