Creating a Multipurpose Room in Subnautica: Maximize Your Underwater Base with Functional Design

Creating a multipurpose room in Subnautica is an essential milestone for any player seeking to build a functional and expansive underwater base. The multipurpose room acts as the foundation for growth, providing space for storage, farming, crafting, and more. To unlock this module, explore the game world and scan enough fragments typically found in the Grassy Plateaus, Jellyshroom Cave, and Mushroom Forest biomes. Once unlocked, gather six Titanium using the Habitat Builder to construct the room. It is usually best to place the room near your base's entrance, then connect it with corridors or other modules. The beauty of the multipurpose room lies in its versatility—it can become a greenhouse for plant beds, a storage hub with lockers, or an operations center with fabricators and battery chargers. As a designer, I always recommend thinking about expansion: cluster multipurpose rooms vertically or horizontally for scalability and consider natural light by aligning with exterior windows. This modular approach to aquatic architecture mirrors the spatial planning found in real-world interiors, giving both beauty and utility to every underwater sanctuary. If you want to see how actual designers plan interior spaces and optimize layouts, exploring a specialized room planner can boost your inspiration for both Subnautica and your real-life projects.

Tips 1:

Maximize the utility of your multipurpose room by adding wall-mounted storage and growbeds. Personalize your space with decorative elements you discover throughout your play, and don’t forget to monitor hull integrity as you expand—reinforcements might be necessary to prevent leaks.
