Ornamentum
by Glitchlabs
Ornamentum is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.1 that adds decorative building blocks in the style of vanilla Minecraft, for builders who need a little more detail than the base game offers.
What it does
Ornamentum expands the building palette with decorative blocks whose textures follow the game's original look. New pieces sit next to existing stone and wood without clashing. Additional stone variants and more decorative block sets are listed as planned for future updates, and community suggestions are part of the plan.
The blocks suit castles, villages, fantasy worlds, interiors, cities, temples and ruins, as well as cozy cottages and large castles. They work in both Survival and Creative. The mod needs NeoForge and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it installed.
Files are published for NeoForge only, currently for 1.21.1 with 1.4.5 as the latest file. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved, and a public source code link is provided.

How it compares
Tinted Grove is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.1 that runs on client and server and is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source here. Blocks Abound is also a NeoForge option for 1.21.1 with the same environment, released under All rights reserved. Ornamentum shares the environment and license of Blocks Abound, so the two can be compared directly by their block selection.
