First of, been playing Subnautica for a while now. Great game and love it. I understand the creators are very busy and are putting their best effort in it.
I don't ahve any real mayor idea's but some that could help with the base building and maybe some other idea's.
Outside lights: It would be great if there where some small outside lights that can be placed upon a surface. Since it would be difficult to power them with cables and such how about making bioluminecent lights instead? As a recipy we could use an already available bioluminecent source such as Creepvine Seeds and hardened glass. It could serve as a means to make a base perimiter or to mark a specific spot in the deep nothingness.
Colorcoded compartments: Now I like the current grey/blue compartments. But what about an optional colorstrip on the inside of the walkways and rooms? Basic colors like red, blue, yellow and green. People with larger bases could then mark those area's using colors. That way a place with bioreactors and reactors gets more 'official due to the colocoding. Think of it as examples in real life, Navy is blue, Marines are Green etc. etc. Its a minor tweak with nothing but a stylish feel to it but worth considering.
Octopoit Biodome: Imaginge a creature that is half plant, half octopus like that is covering the entire surface of a huge area. Tentacle-like growth over the floor and big eyes all around. Now, the surface would be harmless, but pretty freightning to look at. Image swimming at 180 meters depth with below you a massive tentacle like surface and big eyes. Hidden in the surface could be tentaclelike enemies with simular resemblings like the tiger plant and deep caves that are entirely covered with tentacles and eyes. Dangerous to explore and maybe high rewards to do so?

Have you tried the Floodligts, spotlights or light sticks? Each is different, I only wish the floodlight could be base powered(it uses batteries), when only the spotlight can be. The Spotlight follows near-by predators around tho.
For the colour coding, you can colour the wall signs I believe, as well as add your own text. I don't use them, so can't be certain of the features. Might be similar to what you're wanting.
Octopoit sounds freeky!
