I know that there will be chairs and other things you can build, but will you be able to use them? Adding an animation or two for each kind of furniture would give interior decorating more purpose. Otherwise, I think just having things in the house without being able to use them would be a waste.
I personally am not, but I think having chairs without the ability to sit in them would be a little ridiculous. Although if it helps others roleplay, then that's fine too.
I would like furniture to actually serve a purpose as well, not just there for an aesthetics. Instead of going to bed and watching the screen fade to black, I want to see my character get into bed, and then watch the screen fade out (this was an example)
