Build From a Word

📖 The story

"Lighthouse." "Greenhouse." "Spite." A random word lands on your screen, and somehow you have to turn it into a house someone could live in. The stranger the prompt, the better the build.

💝 The goal

Generate a **random word** and design a complete, livable home themed entirely around it.

🎀 Packs required

🏡 Setup

🚀 Getting started

• Pull a random word (a generator, a dictionary stab, a friend's suggestion), then build to it.
• Get your random word *before* you start building.

⌨️ Cheats to type

📋 General rules

• The word is random and binding — no re-rolling for an easier one.
• The whole home expresses the word.
• It still has to be livable.

✨ Specific rules

• The theme must be legible — someone should guess the word from the build.
• Cover all the basics of a functional home within the theme.
• Commit fully to the concept.

✅ What you can do

• Use a random word generator; theme the whole home around the word; use `bb.moveobjects` and a build budget.

⛔ What you can't do

• Don't ignore or soften the word — the theme must read clearly.
• The home must still be livable.

💡 Strategy tips

• Interpret the word broadly — "storm" can be palette, mood, a weathered exterior, dramatic lighting, not just literal rain.
• Pick a few signature "theme anchors" (a colour, a material, a key object) and repeat them so the concept reads clearly.
• Don't sacrifice livability for theme — the best entries do both.

🔥 Want it harder?

• Build to **three** random words at once in one cohesive home.
• Add a budget cap on top of the theme.
