How to get Workstation and loom blueprints in Crimson Desert

Find Workstation and loom blueprints in Crimson Desert by raising vendor trust, buying outdoor decoration plans across regions, and crafting rugs, carpets, and camp décor efficiently.

QUICK ANSWER
To unlock the 35+ Workstation and loom blueprints for outdoor house decoration in Crimson Desert’s 1.12.00 update, visit dye, furniture, and general-goods vendors spread across the open world, raise each one’s trust to the required level (around 100) by gifting the item they want, then buy their blueprints — the loom (carpets and rugs) lives with the tailor in Heidel, while everything else is crafted at the workstation at your Howling Hill camp or the Timber Camp sawmill.

The 1.12.00 update finally lets you dress up the outside of your house in Crimson Desert, not just the rooms inside it. The catch is that the blueprints for all those new exterior pieces are scattered across open-world vendors, and each one only opens up once you’ve earned enough trust with the seller. This guide walks the full vendor route — no mini-game scores required — so you can collect the lot and start decorating.

What the 1.12.00 update added for house decoration

The update introduced two new crafting stations — the workstation and the loom — that turn blueprints into placeable décor. Reportedly around 58 new house items came with the patch, and the majority of them can be used to decorate the exterior of your home rather than being stuck indoors.

There are a few different ways to get the blueprints. Some are tied to mini-games like the claw machine, the flower basket crafting missions, the Box of Fortunes and the Old Moon, and a separate vendor trades blueprints for pinball tokens. This guide focuses on the cleanest path: the vendors dotted around the open world who’ll simply sell you blueprints once you’ve built up trust, no high scores needed.

Loom and workstation crafting locations

Before you start buying, it helps to know where you’ll actually use these recipes. The loom sits with the tailor in Heidel, and it handles the soft furnishings — the carpets and rugs you pick up as blueprints.

Everything else is built at the workstation. If you’ve unlocked your own Howling Hill camp (also heard as Hidel Hill), there’s a workstation waiting there. If you haven’t set up your own camp yet, you can use the one at the Timber Camp sawmill instead, so you’re never locked out of crafting.

Raising vendor trust to unlock blueprint purchases

Every vendor on this route works the same way: you can’t just walk up and buy. First you have to raise your trust with them, and the way to do that is to gift them the item they want. Different sellers prefer different things — some take any form of hide, others want money pouches, money vouchers, palm leaves or patches.

Keep handing over their preferred item until your trust hits the threshold, which is reported as around 100 (the exact number is a little unclear in places, so treat it as a ballpark rather than a hard figure). Once you’re there, their blueprint stock opens up and you can purchase whatever they sell.

QUICK WIN

Before traveling, stock up on the common trust gifts — hide, money pouches, money vouchers, palm leaves and patches — so you can max a vendor’s trust and buy their blueprint in a single visit instead of backtracking.

Valencia (Crimson Desert) Vendor — gift money pouches Triple guard torch, bright warden street light

That covers the open-world sellers, region by region — well past the 35+ blueprints promised. A couple of things are worth flagging as you work through it. Both Kil’fade and Veluha are gated: Kil’fade is part of the homeland but only opens up once you’ve pushed past chapter six of the main campaign, while Veluha becomes reachable after you complete the Veluha side quests, which themselves unlock through the Harn and main faction questline. The blueprint, vendor, region and town names above are transcribed from in-game audio and a few spellings are provisional — names like awanbic vermilion carpet, errand twilight flower carpet or quiet base crown of thorns may read slightly differently on your screen, so match them against what the vendor actually shows.

One more honest caveat: this list almost certainly isn’t every vendor in the game. There are so many sellers across the map that it’s easy to miss one, so if you stumble onto a blueprint vendor that isn’t here, treat it as a bonus rather than a contradiction.

Mini-game and pinball-token blueprint sources

The vendor route above skips the mini-games entirely, but they’re worth knowing about for a complete picture. The patch confirmed that some house-item rewards come from playing them — specifically the claw machine, the flower basket crafting missions, the Box of Fortunes and the Old Moon mini-game. If you enjoy those, they’re another avenue toward filling out your collection.

There’s also a dedicated pinball-token vendor over in the laser area. Instead of gifting an item for trust, you spend the tokens you earn from pinball, and in return he stocks a handful of pieces — including the VZ0 and Z1 automated toys, the money cat wheel and the clanging little knight. It’s the one seller on this list that runs on tokens rather than trust, so keep your pinball winnings if you’re after those toys.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where exactly are the workstation and the loom located?
The loom is found with the tailor in Heidel and is used to craft carpets and rugs. The workstation, which handles everything else, is at your Howling Hill (Hidel Hill) camp once you’ve unlocked it. If you don’t have your own camp workstation yet, there’s one you can use at the Timber Camp sawmill.
How do I raise a vendor’s trust enough to buy their blueprints?
Gift each vendor the item they prefer — that might be any form of hide, money pouches, money vouchers, palm leaves or patches, depending on the seller. Keep gifting until your trust reaches the threshold, reported as around 100, after which their blueprints become available to purchase.
Can all 58 new house items be placed outside, or only some?
Reportedly around 58 items were added, and the majority of them can be used to decorate the outside of your house — but that count is an estimate and not every single piece is confirmed as exterior-friendly, so a few may be indoor-only.
Are there blueprints I can only get from mini-games like the claw machine or pinball?
Some rewards do come from the claw machine, flower basket crafting missions, the Box of Fortunes and the Old Moon mini-game, and the pinball-token vendor trades a few blueprints (and the automated toys) for tokens. The open-world vendor route, though, lets you collect the bulk of the blueprints without touching any mini-game.
Does this guide list every vendor with blueprints?
Not necessarily. This covers the open-world sellers found while sweeping the map, which is already more than 35 blueprints, but there are so many vendors in the game that some were likely missed. If you find one that isn’t listed here, it’s an extra rather than a correction.
