Since dwarves are not going to eat in it, there is no need to build tables or chairs to accommodate them. As such, there is plenty of room to put in all sorts of {{L|quality|valuable}} {{L|furniture}}, which can give your dwarves {{L|Thought#Happy_Thoughts|happy thoughts}}, and happy dwarves are hard-working dwarves. As well, since only a statue is required, it is easy to create a Sculpture garden outside. This is very useful to prevent {{L|cave adaptation}} and can double as a {{L|defense design|early warning system}} against {{L|thief|thieves and snatchers}}. |

− | + | Unlike Dining halls, Sculpture gardens do not double as Meeting Halls, though it is possible to designate an overlapping {{L|Activity_zone#Meeting_Area|Meeting area}}. As well, dwarves tend to throw a lot of parties at Scuplture gardens. While this can be an effective way for dwarves to make {{L|friend|friends}}, it also wastes valuable labor time. Thankfully, ending the party is as simple as {{k|q}}uerying the statue and {{k|f}}reeing the room, though it does mean the room needs to be assigned again. | |
