There are currently 5 Tiers in Eco, Tier 0 to Tier 4. Most players start out by building houses out of [[Hewn Logs]] or [[Mortared Stone]], which are Tier 1 materials.

The blocks connecting your wall with the floor or ceiling also count towards the room requirement, even though they can sometimes be fairly hidden. | There are currently 5 Tiers in Eco, Tier 0 to Tier 4.
