There are a few unknowns as you go on a new quest in Minecraft. Will you enjoy the seed of the world? Do you build close to the spawn place or away from it? Where would be the ideal location for a base? Either way, as you try to establish your base, you will have to make a lot of judgments.
You won’t have much available to you when you initially start out. Although it would take you hours to gather rare materials for a high-end wizard tower, you can actually make some really cool beginnings (and other catchy creations) with just the basics.
Updated on December 29, 2021, by Matthew Pentleton: The Caves and Cliffs Update Part II, also known as Minecraft 1.18, was released in November 2021 and included a number of new features, the most prominent of which was the addition of new biomes, all of which were ripe with ideas for interesting and practical structures to construct.
Look no further if you’re looking for some straightforward yet elegant builds to help you get comfortable in these unfamiliar settings! To provide you with all the construction inspiration and ideas you need to come up with some awesome things to create in survival Minecraft, this list has been updated with new items.
10 The Simple Survival House
Building this gorgeous wooden house isn’t too hard because all you really need is stone and any kind of wood you desire, which are both readily available. Zaypixel, a YouTube user, created an amazing original design that surpasses most other builds in appearance.
You can view the entire video here, which walks through the exact steps you need to take. It might be wise to migrate to a forest or try a different build if you happen to spawn in a desert or a snowy tundra.
9 Redstone Farm
Establishing a farm close to your base is the greatest method to ensure a consistent and pleasant supply of food in Minecraft. To do this, players have devised the most elaborate constructions that take advantage of Redstone’s features. They are highly innovative.

These tasks can occasionally be challenging and time-consuming. Fortunately, Zaypixel made a video that shows how to get amazing effects with very little Redstone and effort. This build’s greatest feature is that it will enable you to gather all of your crops in a hurry.
8 The Farmhouse
Maybe you could include your farms within your house itself if you feel that establishing a separate farm is too much work for you? Including the farms in front, like this stunning build By JUNS MAB provides the house with a quaint, rustic look that significantly enhances its homey feeling.
It’s also useful because, in the early game, the crop (or combination of crops; it could be nice to dedicate each tier to a different produce) you select to grow will be a vital source of sustenance.
7 Quick And Easy Desert Home
You can actually make the most of the sand surrounding you if you do get up in a large desert with limited supplies. Even in difficult survival, YouTuber Meg Rae shows you exactly what you need to accomplish this design, which is surprisingly quick to finish.
She provides an extremely easy-to-follow instruction, so you won’t have any trouble figuring out what kind of blocks to use or where to put them. If you wish to accomplish the same thing, do carry some forest wood.
6 Fast Winter Cabin
It’s difficult to find anything this straightforward and yet organic, but this construction, from YouTuber FenX Builds, is quick and reasonably priced. The entire design blends in perfectly with the spruce forest that surrounds it. You can always return to this biome and use it as a hunting house if you decide later on that you’d prefer to build a larger residence in a different one.
This Minecraft guide on YouTube is straightforward to follow, just like most of others. The greatest part about this build is how adaptable it is—you can use it practically anyplace without super rare blocks..
5 Overhaul Your Outdoor Area
In survival environments, creating the ideal base is a difficult enough undertaking that frequently requires several long days of labor. When you finally get to see your creation finished, you may notice that, in contrast to the extremely complex build you just accomplished, the surroundings appear a little empty.

in this video, YouTube user Typface demonstrates how to liven up your garden, yard, or even just the exterior of your home. Although this tutorial is lengthy, it does include a number of smaller projects that you can work on on your own, at your own leisure.
4 Make Your Sleeping Look Cool
A bed is definitely something that every player needs to create. Yes, you could just get a basic white one and call it a day, but if you want to add some flair to your furniture or home décor, watch this Typface video.
Did you know that barrels and trapdoors may be used to create some really accurate bunk beds? In survival mode, typefaces are inventive by combining fascinating block combinations that are simple to find. Typface’s movie covers little known facts that are surprisingly easy to achieve.

3 Immersive Horse Stable

You’ll probably want to travel thousands of blocks at a time to visit all the new biomes in Minecraft with the 1.18 update, and riding a horse is the best way to accomplish that. But to protect it from rioters, you would want to provide your faithful steed with a decent stable to remain in back home.

All you need for an amazing outcome is some hay and wood, according to Typface’s quick video guide. In terms of time investment and resource usage, this is one of the greatest choices if you have five minutes to spare while playing and don’t yet have a stable.
2 Add A Fountain To Your Town (Or Garden)

This lovely water feature, which was created by YouTuber Minecraft Sekai and showcased in this video, is a great addition to most constructions that are settlement-focused, particularly those with expansive towns.
While making anything entirely out of stone and water is a refreshing change of pace from needing to acquire a variety of resources, undertakings of this kind can prove to be incredibly laborious.
1 Secret Storage Basement

Creating a secret refuge in Minecraft to store your most valuable possessions is one of the nicest things you can do. However, some talent and specific materials are needed for this. You will be able to create more costly block kinds to augment your base as you go through survival.
Spending money on this Zaypixel-designed survival basement (complete with a hidden passageway) is a great use of your limited resources. Although quite large, this endeavor is not insurmountably doable. You can create the framework for it and design the decorations yourself.
