ESO Housing
A place for everyone who decorates and builds houses in ESO. Show your work, find inspiration, and give your creations the place they deserve.
From One Builder's Portfolio
The Archives started in 2026 as a single page - one creator's portfolio for three ESO houses that had grown too detailed for forum posts and Discord messages. Bastion Sanguinaris needed its own dedicated space - a unique place to invite visitors and present a house with one-of-a-kind design. Abagarlas needed twenty-one illustrated pages just to document what was found inside.
As the lore grew, so did the site itself. New pages kept appearing, each one deeper than the last. And with more and more information came a question - am I really the only one doing this? Researching further, I found that there were surprisingly few places dedicated to ESO housing. Scattered Discord servers, a handful of websites - each doing their own thing, but none of them truly unified. Great houses built by talented people, never seen beyond a single Discord channel. So many builds lost in the noise.
A proper, unified platform - one place where builders could showcase their work with real depth, where every house gets its own page, where lore and construction live side by side.
Not another Discord message or a forum thread that gets lost and disappears after a week. That's where the idea came from - and that's what ESO Housing became.
A gallery where other builders could share their work with the same care. A builder tool that gives every house its own page. A lore archive - a home for stories that have nowhere else to live, where they can finally find their own place. A community that believes decorated houses aren't just furniture placement - they're worldbuilding.
ESO Housing is still growing. New features, new builders, new stories.
Collections
A collection is more than a list of houses. As a builder, you can group your own creations by theme - your Dunmer towers, your hidden-room builds, your best work of the season - and add notes on what makes each one worth seeing. It becomes a gallery within a gallery, shaped by your eye and your story.

Community Gallery
Every house tells a story. The Gallery is where builders across Tamriel share their work - from sprawling vampire citadels to quiet hearthside retreats. Browse by guild, style, or server. Leave a mark on the builds that moved you. This is the heart of the Archives: not one person's vision, but a living record of what this community builds together.

House Builder
Every decorated house deserves more than a screenshot in a Discord channel. The Builder gives your creation a full page - hero images, room-by-room breakdowns, the visit command so anyone can walk through it in-game. Set your interior style, tag your guild, tell the story of why you built it. Because a house that took three months to furnish should live somewhere permanent.

The Houses of Clan Lar
The Archives began as one builder's portfolio - three houses on PC-EU, each with its own written history and in-character lore. Bastion Sanguinaris - a vampire stronghold in Blackreach, where the Crimson Hall knows no dawn and the Scarlet Archive holds texts that resist being read. Abagarlas - an Ayleid ruin with twenty-one illustrated pages of excavation notes, a Sealed Passage carved by unknown hands, and the Veil Chamber, where Coldharbour bleeds through. Creature-From-Beyond - where the line between world and void grows thin. Walk through them, read their stories, and see where the Archives started.

The Crimson Archives
Some houses carry histories that go far deeper than a description can hold. The Crimson Archives preserve the written records behind the builds - excavation reports, personal journals, in-character documents that grew alongside the construction itself. If you've ever wondered why the Veil Chamber in the depths of Abagarlas was sealed from within, or why a vampire lord keeps an empty chair at his feast table in the Crimson Hall - the answer is here, somewhere between the pages.
