It's no wonder you hit item cap, your decorating itch just coated the walls with furnishings, much more than the average player would put down. I in my eyes have a fully decorated Sleek Creek and even then I still didn't hit my cap.

The walls coverings didn't take up many items at all though, just an item per wall in most cases, apart from the two walls in which I used tables, which totaled 6 slots... I used about 16 slots to cover walls, I wasn't going to be able to decorate the areas I had to cut off with 16 items.
Sleek Creek is also a normal sized 400 item limit home, not a large home with that same limit...
Sure, I could remove every little detail I added (Even though I wasn't able to add many anyway) and then I could have decorated the rest of the place to match how bland, empty and creatively devoid the areas I did decorate would have been.
400 slots is a limit set for medium sized homes. This is not a medium sized home. This is a large home, badly disguised as a medium home.
I just looked and I actually used 21 items to cover walls, not 16, still not enough to decorate a large garden, a balcony, two hallways and another entire room.
Same disaster strategy that they pulled of with Frostvault Chasm. Impossible to properly do anything in that home without cutting edges or neglecting some parts.
I will never understand their thought process behind creating those homes.
Do they roll a dice for the slot limit sometimes, do they get carryed away while building those giant homes that we are supposed to fill with 700 slots after paying debatable prices for them in the first place ?
The housing team seems so far away from their community in so much ways its not even funny anymore.
I love housing and its pretty much the only reason i keep playing this game. I try out other stuff from time to time but for everything else the game offer theres way better alternatives on the market. Sorry to say that. If it werent for the base system of how housing works in eso compared to other games and the nice community and the great people i have met in that community there would be no reason to login anymore...
Sometimes it just feels like they treat the housing community like cattle thats only there to be milked dry. No other aspect of the game is as expensive as housing, set aside the mad grind for ingame plans and stuff. Its ridiculous. And yet we still dont have basic items that should have been implemented ages ago or any great update or addition or an anniversary to look forward too.
Step your game up ZOS. Your team is absolutely failing in this department.

You, took my phrasing literally there. I just meant you put down a ton of assets in order to make such a detailed Inn. I was actually giving you a compliment disguised as a reason you hit item cap so easily.
Wow that's amazing looking. Reminds me of some homes modders would do in Fallout and Elder Scrolls...
I've said my piece on this in other threads. But when builders like Elara and D3AKUs and others on many discord chats and guilds are saying they really can't decorate this house with 400 slots...
Frostvault was tough but I managed something. Heck, I built a whole house from scratch in Boulder Tree, but I spent a few hours on this on the PTS and I tell you, 400 slots is not enough here.
We're not asking ZOS to exceed the 700 limit here. This is a chance to give us a house with the size that we wanted but with the slot size that works
Lovely build, and a great illustration of the item slot issue
I know some people would say that 'the furnishing slots are fine if you don't overclutter your houses' but that's just not true. Entire sections of the house blocked off, empty corridors, a whole bar counter area with only three items on it, dining tables with nothing but a single candle each, a very sparse kitchen with barely any supplies or produce or cookware, no knick-knacks other than a single potted plant or a single gaming item per tea table. Your dressing table was the most 'cluttered' I think and that was still only a couple of brushes and cosmetics while the nightstands next to it only had one and two items respectively.
This isn't a cluttered or overly busy build by any means, and many parts of the house still look quite empty as you said, which is precisely the problem. I really hope ZOS increase the item limit on this. Otherwise we just traded a giant unfurnishable barren house for a smaller unfunishable barren house It seems the furnishing limits are always going to bite us in the backside, no matter what, lol. Anyway, great job with the build, and especially incorporating the Stockades as the headboard of the bed. Very risqué
For each home:
If you are a bigger hero/explorer, you should unlock more item spaces.
If you're just a monk, then the lower limits should work.
But as you progress through the zone (complete more achievements, collect more skyshards, collect more furniture recipes etc), then your alotted slots should increase.

Because really guys - that's the only thing they're going to hear. Don't spend the money (gold, crowns, or otherwise) on houses that don't even live up to the TESO low standard of items limits.
If you buy it and then complain - you'll get nowhere. You bought it. That's all they care about.
So for me, this just makes it easier to rule it out in favor of all the other homes where I can get the "better value for the coin" as it were.

I do think the way u decorated might not be what ZoS imagined (initially) when deciding item limits.
Thus, u hitting the item cap so fast.
I dont mind higher item limits though (for Inn rooms i really want a higher limit).
However, as long as that doesnt mean the house will become more expensive.
(By re-classifying a Medium house to Large for example)
As for the size of Lucky Cat
I was comparing the size of Lucky Cat to Velothi Reveri, more or less.
Wich is a Medium house, however i do think Velothi Reveri is the biggest Medium house.
And also comparable to the few smaller/smallest Large houses.
If Lucky Cat gets changed to a Large house class.
Lucky u, for getting a higher item limit.
Unlucky me, for the house getting more expensive.
