If you want to add some other item(s) that a dwarf prefers to add to their happiness, that would require that much more space - usually no more than a tile or two. Dwarves consider it a bonus if the room is enclosed by 4 walls (or 3 and a door) for privacy. However, to be happy, a dwarf wants their own room with a bed, and a chest and a cabinet to put stuff in. Proximity of the rooms to noise should also be considered.Īs to size, all a dwarf needs to sleep is a 1-tile bed, anywhere. The ability to modify the design to enlarge, improve, or add rooms can be important as well. Simplicity, ease of designating, efficiency, and aesthetics are all important factors in designing dwarven housing. There are many ways to design the layout of bedrooms.
