I rebuild my house this week and made extensive use of gardens and formal gardens. It would be really nice if for example POH trees were as good looking as the trees outside.
It would also be nice if we could somehow build more rooms than the current limit. Also, the graphics look outdated and some rooms look quite empty and sterile even with every hotspot used.
With all those costumes thrown at us it would be nice if there are more storage options for those in the POH.
Being able to move all rooms just like the Menagerie and Costume room would be a nice option.
No matter how careful you plan the lay-out you always end up with doors leading nowhere, would be nice if these can be made invisible and impassable but also be made available later at the players discretion.
Last but not least it would be nice to have some recurring and rewarding activities in a POH. Like a house in RL needs regular maintenance you could have for example weekly gardening, painting or plumbing giving construction related awards. The awards could be even better if those are done in another players POH in order to enhance the social aspect of the game.
Just some thoughts, TIA!

A swimming pool that we have to dig (mining exp), concrete up and fill with water. The emotes used in Oog'loog would be fine for swimming (minor agility exp, hp healing).
In one of the Myreque quests, we had to rebuild Burgh de Root. We should be able to do repairs once a week for construction exp, as a D&D.

construction is easy it just costs a bomb lawl... still its cheaper than prayer, herblore and probably summon. the cost of construction can be halved with stealing creation hammers.
a fairy ring could be put as a centrepiece into the formal gardem and i think thats a great idea. probably never going to happen but id like to have a bank in there.
the only thing i think they can do to make con easier and better is to make it free LOL!

They updated slayer and hunting recently to some extent, not like construction is not on their update list.
Don't worry about it, Jagex will get to that once they have time to.
I'm sure their Ideas to improve the construction skill will be more than we can hope for.

A graphical update is indeed really required. I was very disappointed when I found out the magic trees I bought weren't the fancy new ones but the older not so very appealing trees. I can't imagine that it's such a large job to update those trees, along with some other minor things. These minor changes really would change a lot in a positive way. So please do something about it d: .

I couldn't agree more, It badly needs updating... Being a 99 construction has limited me to virtually nothing.

House parties have near enough died out and there are some annoying things about them, when you get that one person that tries to mess up the fun.

The lack of updates has damaged the skill, but lately there has been many posts requesting it to be updated. Hopefully my question will be answered in the future of RuneScape Livestream Q+A and we will see a few updates.

I can't wait to see an update so I can start hosting House parties again! :)

Might have been said already, didn't read the whole thread, but I think the most pressing thing needed in the construction skill right now is storage for supplies OR access to a bank from your poh. I despise running back and forth for a handful of builds. I want the ability to stay in my house for extended periods working on flatpacks or whatever. As it is, I just don't have the patience for it and I rarely train construction at all.
