The color purple is quite a bold choice for outdoor structures. In the real world, it’s rare to find buildings featuring purple elements. When it comes to full painting, that’s something truly out of the ordinary. Players of Minecraft are not afraid to experiment with unusual colors and materials, but there’s another challenge here. To obtain a purple block, one must venture into the End and search for it there, which can be quite difficult and pointless in some cases.
This is a 19th-century wooden house located in New Orleans (Louisiana, United States). Perhaps this charming little house will inspire someone among you to build it in Minecraft.
If you decide to create a similar structure, you’ll likely need not only purple blocks but also terracotta. Mixing materials is a fantastic way to add variety to your build, especially since gathering enough purple blocks for such a large project can be quite challenging.
However, if your supply of purple blocks is very limited, it might be wise to consider something smaller. For instance, incorporating painted wool or terracotta tiles into your design could be beneficial. The differences in shades and textures will enhance the appearance of the purple block significantly.
As additional shades, you can experiment with blue tones. This time, we will again utilize wool, as it offers a wide range of colors in various hues, from pastel to dark (like lapis lazuli). Any unconventional combination will help your build stand out against the backdrop of gray, typical structures. Darker colors, such as charcoal, are another option for enhancing the design; polished diorite blocks can also be used for both interior and exterior finishes.
For achieving maximum contrast, gold is an excellent choice. However, a build made entirely of purple and gold blocks can become quite expensive, so sandstone could serve as a more budget-friendly alternative. This approach has been adopted by builders in Minecraft Bedrock:
