Housing Grid

Housing Grid

Housing Grid is a lightweight building and alignment tool designed for World of Warcraft Housing.

It adds a customizable visual grid to the Housing editor, making it easier to align decorations, create symmetrical layouts, divide spaces evenly, and keep your builds organized.

Whether you're creating a perfectly centered room, arranging furniture symmetrically, or working on more complex builds, Housing Grid gives you a clear visual reference directly inside the Housing editor.

Why use Housing Grid?

World of Warcraft's Housing tools are great for freeform decoration, but precise alignment can be difficult when working by eye.

Housing Grid is designed to provide the missing visual references needed for:

• Symmetrical builds
• Centering objects
• Equal spacing
• Circular arrangements
• Straight furniture lines
• Room planning
• Repeating patterns
• More precise decoration placement

The addon does not automate decoration placement. It simply provides a visual building aid that works alongside the normal WoW Housing tools.

Commands

Use:

/hgrid

Additional commands are available for changing grid shape, size, opacity, divisions, rings, orientation, and display behavior.

Built for WoW Retail Housing.

More grid tools and building features are planned as the Housing system continues to evolve.
