It's time to put your construction hats on!
Nows your chance to have your building appear all over Loka. We will soon be releasing the 4 gathering industries but want to give you guys a chance to design the buildings. For those who missed it here is an explanation on how industries will now work
http://loka.minecraftarium.com/forums/index.php?threads/an-update-to-industries.2243/

We currently already have a building for the logging industry which is pictured bellow. So we will be looking for a Mining, Excavation and Farming Industry building. Please don't make the buildings too big. You should use the current industries on Loka as a guide to size.

Requirements
  • Must have a single input chest for tools and a single output chest where the resources are generated.
  • A blocked in area where an Npc can stand.
  • Needs to be a Norse style of build using mainly, spruce, oak and cobble. However any materials can be used.
  • Dimensions should be no larger than about 17 blocks by 17 blocks and 15 blocks tall.
Mining
  • Either some kind of drill or above ground mineshaft entrance.
  • Requires pics in input chest.
  • Outputs stone and ore.
Excavation
  • Open pit mine?
  • Requires shovels in input chest.
  • Outputs dirt, clay, sand etc.
Farming
  • A greenhouse or farm building?
  • Requires hoes in input chest.
  • Outputs crops such as wheat, carrots

Above are just some ideas on what the building could look like but do feel free to use your own ideas instead. Please remember to upload both the world file and an image of your builds. We cannot use your building if you do not provide us with the world file! (How to upload a world file = http://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/how-to-make-your-world-downloadable/) The initial closing date is midnight Sunday 4th October. Good luck!

Farming industry - small farming plot with 16 spaces to plant, a cart, and some hay bales/melons. Fits all the requirements. Sadly I can't figure out how to upload the world file to the forums, but Crypt/Mag, if you like the idea tell me and I'll give it another shot :)

Is it possible to raise the height? It's kinda hard to build a short windmill that looks decent.
 
Yes those dimensions were just to avoid people building things too large, so yes we will still accept building over the restrictions.

The terraforming industry. Two boxes delivered with dirt and a little bit of sand and clay.
The NPC maintains the place, and accepts new box deliveries, and excavates them to bring us dirt and clay and sand.

Edit: i had the same idea for the mining industry, but if one is already made, then there is no need?
 
This may be a late entry, nonetheless, still and entry. (I actually just didn't want to make a new thread.)

For the Excavation Industry I give you the Quarry!

It's not much right now, but it's a start. Basically it's a tent with a drill handing from the ceiling. There will ideally be a pit at the bottom, where the collection chests would most likely be located. Thoughts?
 
How many industry buildings are still in need of a design? I didn't realize they were still being decided upon.
