EDIT: I've chatted with alot of people in the comments of this blog, and have come to a conclusion that this idea simply does not fit the nature of Minecraft. This game was built around cubes and squares, and building and making things more accurately detailed is supposedly apart of the "challenge". So, for all those who have thought of my idea or an idea similar to mine, or are interested in a different architectural game / program, here's a list of some recommended by others in the comment section:
-Playing FTB opposed to Vanilla (more materials, finer details with microblocks)
-Use Google Sketchup.
-Play Cube 2: Saurbraten

Thank you all who viewed / are viewing this blog. :)

Welcome to my blog. This blog is all about an idea I came up with due to my experiences with Minecraft and building in this game. There is also a topic version of this on the MinecraftForums.

I've been playing this game for a while now, but only recently got into Modern building. And I'm pretty good at it as well, always making nice greenery, interiors, exterior shapes, etc. I've even chatted with some of the higher up there builders, on places such as the World of Keralis server. But recently, I hit a building block where I'd dislike alot of the things I was building, and I now think the reason behind this is that I feel Minecraft limits you when you build.

There are limited blocks, only square shapes, no curves or proper slants, limited greenery, no small details and overall limited materials for building. My idea is that a gamemode would be created, or a mod would be coded up made for those looking to go deep into the building aspects of this game, a way for them to build with more materials and shapes than in regular Minecraft.

The idea involves the coding of a game where we have more blocks and shapes and greenery, basically cramming ideas of real life archiecture and furnishing into a video game. Commands resembling those of World Edit would be added for builders to make things faster by creating large areas of material, and microblocks and alot of small blocks would be added, like the microblocks in FTB. This would allow for quicker building, easier building, and alot more custom and detailed creations.

This is a very brief description of my idea. I hope to get this idea popular enough that maybe even Mojang themselves would notice this and consider it, if it is a good enough idea. This would benefit any and all people interested heavily in building and architecture.

Please, add your own ideas and opinions below. Spread this idea through the MC community if you believe it would be a very nice addition to Minecraft / mod creation. :)

This is exactly what I've been thinking. Unlimited, but at the same time too many limits. Glad to see someone has the same ideas

Considering using google sketchup now, as of lately I've been slowly losing interest in building ingame. I don't know much about sketchup yet though, so I gotta learn a little bit more.

Same here. I wanna take sketchup to its full potential! But I've only used it twice. If you pick up any cool ideas/techniques with sketchup please pm me and let me know! :D

I just started using it, watching videos online to help me understand the program more so I can start making stuff.
