Minecraft’s default aesthetic is rustic and medieval. The design doesn’t need any early-game materials which makes it a great choice for a showpiece that doesn’t consume all of your time.
5. Cantina
Sci-fi fans will always have a favourite element: why not design an entire space for all aliens? Sci-fi allows you to use any materials and create a room. You can also make use of cooking equipment by using a Furnace/Blast furnace as service droids.

You can also incorporate other build ideas, such as a mini aquarium or fish tank that you can use to store exotic fish that you can look at (or take a bite of). You can also buy sci-fi skins and textures on the internet or through the Minecraft Marketplace if you want to take it a step more.
6. Boat Buffet
Kitchens in the indoors can be suffocating and overcrowded and crowded, so why not take the cooking outdoors? You can even move it to the water for an exotic-themed buffet. To make your cookout more fun, get some boats and fishing rods. You can also add a Jukebox or lanterns to the mix. This waterfront concept can be made more unique by adding breathtaking views.

Create it on the edge of a lake of lava, and forfeit Furnaces for burning Netherrack and glowing Campfires. You can set up an Hoglin farm nearby to collect heaps of Porkchop while you’re doing it.
