Decorative Workstations

Build and decorate freely, without villagers claiming every piece of furniture.

The Problem

You've spent hours perfecting a market alley cluttered with barrels, a cozy tavern lined with comfy beds, or a bustling harbor. And it only took a handful of villagers to instantly turn every aesthetic detail into a claimed workstation or bed, completely ruining the atmosphere you were trying to create.

The Solution: It's Up to You

Keep full functionality wherever you need it, and place copies elsewhere that keep the original block's appearance and small animations, but none of its functions.

The original blocks are never touched. You decide what stays functional and what becomes purely decorative.

What's in the Mod

• A dedicated creative tab, with all decorative versions grouped in one place.
• All 16 bed colors, in decorative form.
• A decorative bell.
• Every vanilla workstation: Barrel, Blast Furnace, Brewing Stand, Cartography Table, Cauldron, Composter, Fletching Table, Grindstone, Lectern, Loom, Smithing Table, Smoker, Stonecutter.
• Simple, reversible survival recipes:
  • Vanilla block + item frame → decorative block
  • Decorative block → vanilla block
• Interactive Animations: Seven decorative blocks respond to right-clicks with pure visual animations (Composter, Smoker, Blast Furnace, Cauldron, Brewing Stand, Bell, and Lectern).
• Multilingual: Fully available in English, German, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese.
• Resource packs natively adapt to all presented blocks.

These blocks reproduce the vanilla experience identically on the visual side, removing only what causes problems.

Kept: appearance, models, collisions, hitboxes, loot tables, and right-click animations for specific blocks. Removed: interfaces, inventories, villager AI, points of interest, and the sleep mechanic.

Inspection Mode and Configuration

• What it does: Inspection mode highlights decorative blocks so you can easily spot them among regular vanilla blocks in a dense build.
• Features: Includes a master switch to turn it on or off easily. Outline thickness is fully adjustable via highlightLineWidth, and options include clear explanations. Wall-through rendering is fully compatible with Iris shaders.
• How to use: Disabled by default. Remember to bind a key in Options → Controls → Key Binds to use it.

Compatibility and Precautions

• Loaders: Available for Fabric (Fabric API required) and NeoForge (Minecraft 26.1.2 & 26.2).
• Compatible with existing worlds and standard resource packs.

Before uninstalling, convert or remove your decorative blocks, otherwise they'll turn into air where they stand. Use the Inspection Mode to spot them all before taking action.
