Are you dreaming of creating impressive buildings that will be remembered among the players in Minecraft, but do not know where to start? Below you will find tons of ideas and tons of inspiration for realizing your plans, finding the resources you need, and developing your creativity. Just get started from the first step!

Steps

Part 1 of 6: Buildings and structures

1. 1 Build a maze. You can build an underground labyrinth for yourself or people on the server. If you want to make it more scary, launch the Herobrine mod and activate it in the maze. We are not responsible for the result of your fright!
2. 2 Build a Temple named after Yourself. Make a temple to worship yourself! Of course, you can build a temple or church to worship anyone or anything, but it is also interesting to build them for performing rituals for yourself.
3. 3 Build a freeway. Clever Minecraft players have figured out how to use the minecart system to build a highway.Experiment with creating your own scenic highway, or search for such plans in the search engine.
4. 4 Build a castle. Of course, the first thing we build in Minecraft is a hideout ... so what better proof of mastery than building an epic castle? Its construction in hard-to-reach places, for example, on a mountain, will be considered a special chic.
5. 5 Build a farm. Killing mobs for resource extraction is useful, but boring. A more interesting way is to breed mobs. You will find many instructions on how to do this on the internet, so you can choose the option that works for you.
6. 6 Build a celestial fortress. Start taking off and building your epic heavenly home! It may not be just a house, but a whole castle. You don't need any tutorials to build this great building, just creativity and some skill!
7. 7 Build a museum. Building museums is fun and easy. Search the internet for matching pictures or official plans for real museums!
8. 8 Make miniature games. For example, you can create your own version of Five Nights at Freddy's or Clash of Clans!
9. 9 Get into pixel art. Pixel art will help you create your own character or even a video game hero.

Part 2 of 6: Worlds and Environments

1. 1 Adventure Time! Once Bilbo Baggins went on a journey, and now it's your turn. Build a complex world with all the attributes of fantasy, whether it's a haunted forest or mountains full of dangers. When you're done, you can go on your epic hike and write about your adventures.
2. 2 Build a pirate ship and an island. Build a large island with a tavern, a pirate port and a ship sailing across the open sea! You can also build interesting structures on it, for example the Temple of Destiny.
3. 3 Build a spaceship and create the universe itself. Use obsidian blocks in Creative Mode to create a huge black space, then use plugins or codes to generate huge planet-like spheres. You can then create an inhabited spaceship traveling between planets.
   • Fill a glass ball with lava to create a sun!
4. 4 Build a volcano. Make a huge volcano filled with lava. Bonus if you can build yourself a villainous lair inside a volcano. Glass can be used to trap lava and keep light in your hideout.
5. 5 Create large trees with buildings inside. Build trees, as in Avatar or the Sacred Moon, the satellite of the planet Endor in Star Wars, at the largest possible scale, and then fill the roots, trunk and branches with houses and transitions. Then invite your friends to throw an Ewok party!

Part 3 of 6: Utility Models and Inventions

1. 1 Build a train system. You can use the tracks, carts, redstone system, and physics in the game to build a fully automated train system. You can do it in a mine, or even build a real train and train station for people visiting your world.
2. 2 Build an elevator. You can use redstone and command blocks to build an elevator in your buildings. It's surprisingly easy to do, and you'll find many different instructions on the internet.
3. 3 Build a sorter. By using hoppers, you can create systems that sort your things quickly and efficiently. This is useful not only in mines, but also in your hideout. Information on building various types of such systems can be found on the Internet.
4. 4 Build street lights. By using daylight switches with a converter, you can build light-sensitive street lights that turn on when it gets dark. Use this to protect players and important paths from aggressive mobs at night.
5. 5 Build a trap for mobs. Mob traps are often large and cunning devices that trap and automatically kill mobs, usually by drowning them. There are many different designs to suit any budget, so there will be plenty to choose from. Many workshops can be found on YouTube.
6. 6 Build a trap for griefers. Haven't you hit by griefers yet? Let's start building a trap for them! Look for instructions - there are many ways to do it!

Part 4 of 6: Real World Inspiration

1. 1 Build copies of national monuments. Create complex detailed copies of famous landmarks, monuments, and other structures. Set them up so that your players or friends can travel around the world in just a few minutes if they want.
2. 2 Recreate the setting from your favorite TV show. Take inspiration from your favorite TV series and create your own version of the scene. You can, for example, build a school, like in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, or Finn's tree house from Adventure Time.
3. 3 Recreate your city or area. Recreate the area where you grew up. Build your school, local parks, your home, and other places where you spend your time.
4. 4 Recreate the setting from your favorite book. Use your imagination to the fullest and recreate the setting of your favorite books - for example, The Lonely Mountain from The Hobbit or Moomin Dol. Let your imagination know no bounds!
5. 5 Recreate your room. Take one room and recreate it on a large scale. Make one block equal to 5-10 centimeters. As a result, the doors will be as tall as a skyscraper. If you want, you can build yourself a house within these walls and live like Gulliver in the land of giants!

Part 5 of 6: Crazy Stuff

1. 1 Make cannons for mobs. On the internet, you can find many plans for building such a cannon. Explosive objects using redstone and TNT launch sheep directly into the world of Ether! Why don't cows fly?
2. 2 Build a TARDIS. You can use Command Blocks to create the iconic device from Doctor Who, a blue police box that's much larger on the inside than on the outside. You can find helpful guides on YouTube and all over the internet.
3. 3 Build the Titanic. Build yourself a replica of the Titanic, then have fun on board with your friends. You can of course make a regular cruise ship too. It might even be safer!
4. 4 Get some pixel art. You can jump back into the world of 8-bit characters like Mario or Zelda and use Minecraft to create huge pixel art objects! Get creative and create an environment that you and your friends will love. 8-bit music (chiptune) will add a special twist: welcome to the nineties!
5. 5 Make a working game or computer. If you are a truly unique person and are willing to put in a decent amount of time, figure out how to make work computers and other complex mechanical devices. On the Internet you can find examples of 3D printers, working computers and even Pacman games!

Part 6 of 6: Useful Tools

1. 1 Use Minedraft. Minedraft allows you to draw up plans for your buildings and structures before you build them, so the process will be faster and more productive. This is a very useful tool.
2. 2 Use WorldPainter. WorldPainter lets you create huge Minecraft maps as easily as if you were doing it with MS Paint and then import them into your game and use them. This is another great tool!

4. 4 Install the mods you want. There are many Minecraft mods that can be found all over the internet.They are dedicated to a wide variety of topics and will make your game much more beautiful and interesting. A useful tool for building is a new set of textures that can make your structures much more attractive.
5. 5 Watch YouTube. There are many channels on YouTube where talented players upload video tutorials on how to create cool stuff. Find some popular channels and subscribe to the ones you like. Just be careful, otherwise you can spend all your time watching videos!
6. 6 Try Papercraft! Papercraft is like origami on steroids. You can print and then glue all sorts of objects from "Minecraft" and use them as decoration for your home or even real construction of such objects.

Tips

• When constructing high-rise buildings, create one floor at a time so as not to get too confused.
• If you are playing in Survival mode, make sure you have duplicate tools in case one breaks.
• Use wool to decorate and create objects such as a colorful dance floor.
• Don't try to copy someone else's work. Be creative and use your own ideas.
• The material matters: so, for a modern house it is better to take a brick or something white, for a medieval castle - a stone, and so on.
• In front of the structure, you can place traps for mobs so that they do not get inside.
• If you are building a small house, you can combine wood planks, stone and brick.
• Publish your work for players from all over the world to appreciate the result of your efforts.
• Be creative. Any idea can be realized!
• Take your time and be prepared for the construction to take some time.

Warnings

• If you want others to see your structures, upload the video and map to YouTube. Perhaps you will become famous.
• Try not to make huge buildings on a server where several factions are playing, as during your absence someone will be able to attack your territory and disassemble buildings for materials.
• If you are playing on a server, beware of griefers (players trying to ruin the game world) and creepers (mobs that explode near the player). They can destroy or damage your amazing buildings.
