Creating a home in the Terraria video game may sound quite a simple and fun task, however, to start this process it is necessary to meet certain requirements for a site to be considered as such.
But this is not everything, since you must also progress in the game and unlock some additional elements, such as the Non Playable Character (NPC) and, so these can reappear in these places and in this way are considered as a Terraria home.
Therefore, this time we are going to tell you everything you need to know to build your house in Terraria so that you can keep the NPCs safe; We also tell you all the plans and what are the requirements to create a home.
What is a house in Terraria and what is it for?
A house in Terraria is nothing more than a structure that is created by the player for the NPCs so that they can inhabit it. I mean, this home will not be for you, but for the NPCs.
The idea of building a home for the NPCs is so that they can live at night and also at events, safely. For each house, there is an NPC to inhabit it. So once they are inside the home, they will be protected from monsters, zombies , demon eyes, and slimes.
Fortunately these NPCs have fairly low standards, so it is not necessary to spend many hours building a large house or palace. They even settle for a mud hut and even an NPC prison .
It should be noted that within a home beds can be used. In addition there may be other structures that are generated naturally and if the player introduces light to them they can become houses and will inadvertently attract NPCs. These structures can be moved through the Home Menu in that inventory of the video game.

Location
You cannot build a house near Crimson or Corruption, otherwise it is considered uninhabitable . In the event that these spread to the home, the NPC inside the house will wander aimlessly until they find a new available home .
In fact, when a home is built close to evil, a score is calculated that is calculated by the number of evil blocks used in a 45-block radius surrounding the house. So you should consider that a valid house should reach approximately 250 or a little less . You should consider that:
- The crimson and ebony stone blocks, ebony and crimson sand and the wicked plant increase the score to 1
- Each sunflower will decrease the score to 5
Minimum measurements
- Excluding ceiling, walls and floor , width and height: 3 x 10, 4 x 8, 5 x 7, 6 x 6, 7 x 5, 8 x 4, 10 x 3, 13 x 2

Remember in the first measures for both exclusion and inclusion it can only be done when the workbench is used and the last measure can only be done when the roof is built of platforms.
The walls
In this case you must consider that any wall is valid, however natural walls are not considered that way , except if they are living wood walls that come from the living tree.
In addition, the walls of the home may have some holes as long as they do not exceed 4 blocks in width and height. However, remember that this increases the possibility of monsters appearing in the house .
Furniture

- Flat Furniture : These are the tables, pianos, captivating table, bookcases, war table, bathtubs, sideboards, alchemy table and workbench
- Seat : benches, chairs, thrones, beds and sofas. The latter are not available in the 3DS version

To start with the construction, the first thing you should do is choose the ideal land where the house will be . Here you must delimit the surface area, make sure it is level so that you can build the house you want.
Next, collect the necessary amount of wood ; To do this, use an ax to cut trees and then create them with the Workbench . By having this element, you must place it in a hole with the following dimensions: 2 x 1. Once this is done, you must go to the location of the hearth and build a rectangular frame , this you will do with the wooden blocks. In this case, you will need at least 150 wooden blocks.

Building a pressure for your NPCs is a good option although it has several cons since this house will trap the NPCs in a way that they will never come out **. Therefore, the jail in Terraria meets the basic requirements to build a home and even more so if you are looking to immobilize people.
To start with this construction, you should form a column that takes up little space on the floor and takes up a little more air . In addition, in this type of house the main body must be a minimum of 9 x 7, with 60 tiles and 2 platforms made of wood in the lower area and around the block.
These platforms and the block will allow you to insert a desk and a chair inside the house, in addition it will allow the NPCs to enter it, but never leave .
An advantage is that if you build the prison above the top of the head the NPCs will be able to interact with other people walking below. However, it is likely that NPCs are not comfortable living forever in prison , which will hurt you; so you should take this into account before deciding to build such a structure.
