Schmuu's House is the current residence of getplayerhead.sh?thepinkschmuu&16.png thepinkschmuu (aka "Schmuu") (joined MCO October 3rd, 2018) and was his second building project and third completed build. It is located in Titanville. The house is loosely based off of Frank Lloyd Wright's famous Fallingwater in Mill Run, Pennsylvania. As a building tactic, Schmuu allowed himself one good look at an image of Fallingwater before building his house and then prohibited himself from looking at any more pictures of it once he began building so as to create a building reminiscent of, but not a direct copy of, the real thing. Its clean, modern architecture contrasts significantly with the majority of Titanville's buildings, as most of them are significantly smaller than the house and follow a nearly universal oak wood and oak log block palette. Schmuu's House follows a somewhat strict block palette of stone bricks, spruce wood, smooth sandstone, and glass and includes many balconies and large windows and skylights allowing for a very "open," "outdoors-y" atmosphere throughout the house. Fallingwater is known for taking similar aspects into account.

Schmuu built the house for looks and aesthetic over functionality or practicality, as the house has much more space than is necessary to live decently. The house features a large living room, a foyer, a bedroom, a patio, a rooftop pool, a large wall of furnaces, and a storage room which are all private to Schmuu. The house also features an XP grinder (with automatic collector chests), an enchanting room, an anvil, and a potion brewing station which are open to all Titanville residents. The section of the house that holds these resources is separated from the private part of the house by doors that can only be opened from the private section, giving Schmuu easy access to them but not allowing others utilizing them to explore the private section of the house.
