So, in Suikoden you have this bath area. And if you decorate enough of a certain types of items in your bath, your bath changes. Blood pours from the paintings and the dolls placed have their eyes light up with a creepy glow. Knight statues draw their swords, or genies float out of the lamps.
I was thinking something a little similar might be interesting for houses. Each item is assigned a secret, unlisted value.
For example, a Green Slime Chair might have a value of '+5 Sticky, +1 Furniture, +1 Green'. A Red Slime Chair might have '+5 Sticky, +1 Furniture, +1 Red'.
If you place enough items that meet the 'Sticky' requirement in your house and fill it's hidden bar, your house could occasionally drip slime from the roof or you could unlock the 'Slimy Floor' item by accomplishing the 'Sticky Home' achievement. It could be a unique floor that sounds like and behaves like slime trails when walking over it.
Or you could have a 'Spooky Scary Skeleton In Your Closet' home achievement, fill the house with Pumpkin Woods furniture to fill a 'Creepy' bar which makes harmless ghosts appear and vanish at random in your house, giggling as they do. Maybe this unlocks a special scarecrow item that looks like the enemy, but not alive.
Or, for more complicated homes, a 'Feng Shui' achievement. Get equal values of Red, Blue, Green and Yellow past a certain number in your home at the same time for a house option that makes cherryblossom petals drift down through your home. (Optionally, an item that makes cherryblossom petals fall in your character's footsteps like the butterfly item would be immensely cool. )
