Sometimes the workers just stay around a building site awaiting materials. There is little information about what materials are needed/on the way.
I would expect to see besides the green completion bar info on how many materials are still needed to complete the building. Maybe with a small +1 if a material is on its way already. (like in statistics panel).

Good idea, sometimes building is hidden behind trees or other objects, that you are not sure which materials are there already.

I see no harm in adding some more information to the panel of a house under construction showing how much stone/wood is required and how many have already been delivered. The panel is basically empty now.

I thought of a different layout.. One thing lead to another and here it is:
These are two materials repainted in x10 size:

Krom's one is best I think, more simple. Even if it doesn't realy matter.
But is it me or does the stone look big compared to the text size?

Hmm I like Lewin's image more, in my opinion the stone/timber looks too big.

I defiantly prefer Krom's layout because my one looked a bit odd as it was the only thing aligned left (and it couldn't really be aligned center because of the different lengths of translations). However I agree with The Dark Lord in that Krom's icons look way too big to me. I think Krom's layout with normal sized icons (or maybe slightly bigger) would be best.

On a second look I agree with TDL, icons are a bit too big. Here's how it looks with 30px icons:
P.S. Still it would be nice to find an application to these 200px icons

Looks great, seems it's final version.

Trees won't be disasterous now, never more!

Yes we all agree with TDL even if it's what I said 2 hours earlier.

But yes now it looks better.
