Expansion - can we focus on adding new building things?

It would be nice if there was some more love on the building side of ark for each expansion, it has been long overdue for some new additions like new foundation/wall materials (eg. bricks, tiles, slats, marble, sandstone), roof styles (1 foundation width capping, rounded roofing, cladding, sheet metal, arched roof), wall and foundation styles (round foundations, walls) and much more (new window shapes, roof, cloth overhangs, net walls).

I agree 100%.

The last time we received a building tier/set to the core game (not including mods as they are not available outside of PC), was Scorched Earth. 

Since then we have only received a handful of building items. Below are just a few examples; 

• Aberration - Platforms
• Extinction - Tek Bridge
• Genesis - Ocean Platforms

Now technically we did receive the "Homestead Update" which was essentially a heavily watered down version of the Popular and Loved Structures+ Mod which brought us large walls and triangles to the official game mode. (they never fully added it to Primitive Plus properly - only providing the items to the Ark standard items and not the primitive+ varieties. Which seems odd as it is an Ark game mode and therefore seems as though it should be supported fully by Ark... but that is a separate discussion point.) 

I am not saying that the "Homestead Update" wasn't nice. It was. A lot of console/win10 players had a lot of new pieces and parts to build with. Also need to mention the included pick up timer and the inclusion of the unofficial customization of that timer. It was an appreciated addition to the game. 

However since that update, there haven't been any other items added beyond the few and far between that came with the new maps - of which were as previously stated individual items - not full building tiers/sets. 

And there have been many suggestions added on this very topic, though many have come in different formats. I have posted a few I have found and/or commented on that you may want to take a look at and see if any are ones you would like to vote up.

If any include the items you are looking for, adding to the suggestion or up-voting them could increase their notice. 

Either way, the suggestion is one I can support.

Also different shapes like half walls/half foundations or even just better shaped triangle structures so I can use them with the square ones easier qq.

Also, coloured glass/windows pls.

More decoration things like aquariums would also be nice, being able to use the fish basket to fill your aquarium would be really cool.
