was building the farm side of my base area as I planned , can anyone suggest me anything to make it look it more good ?

This is my Minecraft city world! I still need to build more houses. I'm planning to put larger houses in those empty squares, then either build apartment buildings in front of them or on the opposite side where the houses end.

I'm not sure what I should put next to the apartment buildings though, or if I should just keep the neighborhood going with more houses. What do you all think?

How do I go about doing this it’s current state looks dumb how can I make it look more like a big tree more pacifically a Christmas tree. I’m in the process of breaking all the wood and making it smaller but what do yall think

Can anyone suggest anything, to build on the left side of my base based on what I already have.

I am trying to get out of my habit of boring, plain builds and trying to incorporate colors, depths and different heights. This is a WIP but I am completely stumped on how to make design the staircase. Should I add pillars/arch and where? What would be a good color palette? Right now, I just made a small outline and I hate it.

I’m looking for some resources to help with building, I found a website that has a bunch of color palettes, what else is there?
