Mapping question

[Kiory]

You already have your answer.

"I dont want to be repetitive, or illogical."

If you don't want to be, then don't be. Take inspiration from real places, also, carpets are quite important to break up shapes, not to mention to hide ghastly seams!

Lighting is something often neglected in maps, and in Amnesia, the lighting is probably the most important aspect of mapping, study lighting, it's very important.

Furniture is often placed against walls, but that doesn't mean to say that they have to be, have fun with it. Who says pictures have to be on walls too? You could have a room full of them strewn about, your only limitation is your imagination.

Maybe some leakage from the ceiling with a small puddle on the floor? That would look nice, even better, a bucket there too would add even more coherence.

Basically, think about how YOU would decorate your home, how you would arrange things, AND DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE LIGHTING, IT'S IMPORTANT!
