Can we get some building materials?

We desperately need the ability to build our own things down the the posts and boards. We currently have a single plank which is a 2x4 board. We need 4x4 boards and maybe even 4x6 and similar studs. We could also use walls and floors similar to murkmire wall, stone and alinor ballroom floor, timeworn. We could also use more skeleton types of furnishings that can be pieced together, but that’s for a different post. There has been many posts asking for such materials. Can we please be given access to the materials? Pretty please?
Thank you,

    Bricks and brick walls in various thicknesses and stone types/colors would be nice too. I'd like to use a brick wall as a floor to make a second floor in some houses, the wood looks crappy as it ends up being a ceiling also. As for the wood planks, can we have other colors/types of wood?

    I second this. As a custom build lover I would like to see more of basic structural components. Being a bit more sensible with platform thickness (I look at you Alinor floor) would be nice.
    Following this thought, I would love to see more "clean slab" houses like Coldharbour Surreal Estate - tall and flat enough to accomodate any type of build

    Breton walls that Match houses, and Stone castles would be nice, wood flooring too.
    Same with Redguard, and High Elf builds.
    Walls, Flooring, Doors, Archways, and Stairs.

    Off topic, and a long stretch, But while we're here... Beds, specifically canopies... could the canopies be slightly raised so character can walk into them at least. It's a little annoying the canopy is too low for most tall characters.

    I'd like floors that actually behave like floors for the purpose of player skills and dueling arenas.

    Yes! More variety would be nice, with walls, planks, and all that with cultural variations from the different provinces of Tamriel.

    What would be very interesting is for them to add a ton more building materials and then make more clean slate homes, or even ones with "ruins" that we can build upon. I'd love that.

    These are all great ideas. Let’s just hope we can convince the devs or whomever is in charge.

    It would be very awesome if we could have uniform shaped things that can placed together in a seemless fashion that is both form and functional. Take the Alinor and Murkmire (Stone) walls and floors and reskin them with various styles like Breton or Imperial or whatever. In fact, there could be a re-skinning of all the stone/rock conservatory items. Trying to find that same toned stone to a fixed stone isnide one of the larger homes is tough. At this point I’m just rambling, so I will stop for now.

    Yeah, the lack/inflexibility of structural materials, combined with the furnishing limits, puts me off building at all.

    This just shows that there is a demand for building materials and such. Please give us what we desire *holds out hand with a wstack of cash* please take it.
