How close is too close? 
Thank you!!
Enough too ruin the entrance I wanted (very close)😭
Not mine but I thought this was a super cute idea so I thought I'd share it for anyone who needs inspiration..
That’s cool!
I’ve like carved a small path all the way through the cliff, but this idea is cute
Thank you 😊
Making a little neighborhood on the left side of my island
Finally decorated my campsite!
First time actually decorating my island started small but I’m proud of it !
thoughts on this island plan? i wanted some idea of something to put on that blank area next to the museum
These are some cool ideas
built my dark fantasy Fable inspired entrance. if you’d like to see the process it’s on yt: inkycrossing 💞
A little historical park on my island
I have the coffee shop idea down, I have about five of them at the moment 😂
I always build tree farms until I think of things so I have resources when I think of things
I love how cute this is!
Aww thank you!!!
Any ideas on wtf to do in this area of my map? I'm trying to make a plan for redesigning my whole island but this part can't be changed and its so small that i have no idea what to do with it
i always like putting a little cafe/restaurant seating! Also a spa could be fun 
Hmm.. what do you mean? I don't know how I'd fit a cafe in that small area
let me find you some inspo pics, but i like to use those 1 tile tables with 2 chairs and then make a fake building:
one sec lol
theyre only small anyway! maybe keep the seating to the side closer to your island then
Somehow that gave me an idea - maybe i could make a little ocean viewing spot there? Like a pathway leading up to it and then some seating facing the ocean or smth? Idk
Thank u for the ideas tho!! 
Beautiful
stardew valley players help me out please 🙏
im making a stardew valley themed island and im making a list of villagers that will be replacements for pelican town residents. so far j have stitches as victor, beardo as gus, dobie as george, and nana as evelyn. im making pierres shop nooks cranny, and emily/haleys house as the able sisters. i already have a seitch profile for linus, i just need help on villager recommendations for marnie, leah, willy, robin, jas, and abigail. please DM or reply to this message if you can help!!
does anyone have good beach decor ideas for cottagecore/magical islands? this is the last thing i need for my dream adress please someone save me😭
try putting some excess seaweed by the coast, maybe some turtle prints hnder shell stools, someone put a little bar in the shore, i’d also try doing like a ferry or a boat if that helps at all
on my last island i set up like a concert venue on the beach
it could very well be a fishing spot too
ur a lifesaver 🙏 ty
Fauna/Beau/Audie for robin maybe
Rosie/Cherry for Abigail
Maybe maple/bea for Leah?
(Going mostly of looks except Abigail’s recommendation)
i just thought of this but
what if there was in island with ONLY food themed villagers
villagers like Ketchup and the orange cat that looks like a orange
weird question but
im using a website to help plan my island
am i crazy or should i be able to put a hedge behind the house like i added on the left? (had to draw a line where i meant)
is it perhaps bc this website doesnt have hedges so im using bushes and bushes can't be placed there?
Ok no bushes can be placed there too
So why is the website not allowing me to? Is the website wrong or am i wrong?
sorry if this is too complicated lmao
sorry the pic is sideways as well
I think i found the issue
Apparently villager houses are 4x4 but from this it looks like its 3 down, not 4 down, since i can place hedges on the first and fifth hole
What is happening
Nvm i figured it out myself
i don;t get how people can get good photos of builds ;-;

My little cosy castle area 🙂
in game filters/other filters, camera angle, zoom, composition of the build itself 
something about this is so pleasing to the eye to me
Recently flattened my entire island and redesigned the whole thing on the happy island designer, now to spend hours rebuilding cliffs I’ve just destroyed 
How did you get the trees to stay little?!
plant a fruit behind it 
Thank you!!! 
anyone able to help me with ideas to use for the big bald spot in my island? i cant come up with any.. 
These are some cool ideas!
How am i supposed to tell if this is a good spot when i only have this view 😭😭😭
what builds should I have on Japanese city core islands
Current island plan. How long we betting this will take me? Considering my island is f l a t, I’m betting a week
Need to put some more flowers in this color theme but then im done
a small start to my island :)
how do you make a plan like that?
It’s a website called Happy Island Designer! I recommend using a computer or an iPad, it’s a little hard to navigate on the phone 
okay thank u smm!
This makes me wanna restart
what kind of areas do you have on your island already? are you thinking more terraforming or actual areas?
im thinking of more terraforming and maybe some space to make areas too but just mainly terraforming for now
Just got terriforming and struggling where to start
maybe you can try this? itll look really good starting from your secret beach! i gave something similar a go on my island, took up a lot of space if thats what youre aiming for! 
That's actually really close to what I'm looking for design wise my question is do I flatten the whole thing first
I'm going for like a cottage core/ studio ghibli theme
whenever i start a new island, i just flatten everything first!
you can start to plan that way, is this your first time terraforming?
yeah
theres a lot of tutorials on youtube to help with natural looking terraforming, i think that'll suit your island theme more 
thamk you for the tip😊 I love this game but terriforiming ive found to be intimidating 😅
no worries! remember to take some breaks between playing so you dont get burnt out, happy building 
thank you! ill be sure to try that idea 
some random shots from my island 🏝️ 💫
happy building! 
I posted this in #game-help-questions❓ but I realized people here might know more, I'm trying to make a rock garden but the last 3 won't spawn and I can't even find where on my island they are??
If there are objects, trees, fences etc close sometimes they don't spawn. It's better to leave at least 3 spaces free until they spawn.
I'll try that, Ty!
Wow I love the river, that's so beautiful! Do you by chance have the map? I'm thinking of doing something similar 🩷
laughing evily like im a witch making an evil potion 🗣️
When im on AC again i will show my map
Current map. (Some parts W.i.p)
Audibly gasped. The flower custom patterns and showing a consistent palette with the items and the greenery placement has so much charm!
I am trying to make a castle centered on the museum and my back wall and side walls link together perfectly, but my front wall does not connect. I’m pretty sure it’s because the gates are 3 wide instead of 2 wide, but I wanted to do a double stair leading up to it. Is there any way I can make the walls connect? Please say yes… 
i think youd have to move it 1 tile across so the left side touches and then add an extra wall on the right
goodluck!!
Palace creation is hard
The only issue is it’s currently centered on the entrance of the museum, that tower in the middle is directly in line with the doorway of the museum, if I move everything over to the left it won’t line up

Ah I think I found out, the platform is not quite even, there’s 8 tiles to the left of the museum but 9 to the right
The only issue is if I add an extra column on the left, my back wall won’t line up anymore
I at least mostly fixed it… it’s not perfect though 
so..... replacing patterns of custom designs changes it in the world? so i have to only have a certain number of custom designs saved that work? i can't use more custom designs than they allow? this is some bs man
How do i fix this 
How should I fix this area
Hi all, does anyone have any ideas on what i could do with my island? I’m redesigning it and terraforming it later tonight and thought i’d ask for some ideas! I’m happy if its from online or your own island, it’s for ideas only, i’m not aiming to copy paste any part of islands into mines. I’m thinking fruit / veg gardens, shopping space or strip only not sure how i could put those ideas together. Thank you!!
You need to have one villager house that’s off in a remote corner of your island. Everyone needs a loner.
Hahaha valid, i’ll see what i can come up with and who to put up in a wee corner, thank you!
OMG! I've been wanting to redo my orchard and figure out to do with all my extra flowers and this is perfect! I'm so happy I could cry! I hope you get money rock island 3 days in a row 
https://pin.it/5yqXHzaVt
Can someone help me identify the items in this picture?
Crescent-Moon chair, brown-sugar cupcakes, stone stool, pink balloon
So Im gonna restart my Island and idk which theme I should go for?
Any ideas?
Multicore
Like a multi season?
Several different areas with different themes
Okey
That's what I did because I couldn't decide
I was thinking about a splitted season Island but not sure yet
Sounds good
any ideas on how to make this island layout work? or any similar layouts, feel like my town hall is very close to the river mouth
This is absolutely great!!
Do you perhaps still have the code for those simple panels?
my first fake building!!
whale signs - 0028 - 3214 - 9031 i hope that's the right ones
i love orcas
same, wish there was an orca in the game i could make a model out of
something i had saved ^ _ ^ lol
love this! adorable
Which one should i go for? I think the raised bridge looks better but i dont like how the camera pans a bit when i walk over it... but maybe I'll get used to it? Idk which one i should ultimately choose
Cuz im very used to the log flat bridge since ive had them so long - so the panning of the camera feels so weird
I think the raised bridge looks better!
I‘d go with the raised one!
Found this on pinterest and want to see it in-game, does anyone know the DA for this or another island where the villagers are placed on a tiered set-up?
Does anyone who's more creative than I am (very very low bar lol) want to come over and help with island designs? I'm finally ready to start decorating but I'm so lost
question jus flattened my island do i put pathing down now or reshape the river
I'd say reshape the river
than you
hii does anyone have a good video or tips on how to make a town/citycore-ish island? not really for the aesthetic but more for the structure/roads and things. thank you!! 

hihi, been planning on making a 2000s type of island (like the ones from k-dramas (twenty one twenty five kinda)) but i rlly dont know how 😭
im not familiar with the show, but maybe you could replicate the city/setting on your island? If you can show me some reference photos id be happy to help! 
maybe you could even match villagers with ones that remind you from characters from the show?
I need some help making my island a mix of urban japanese and a hiking trail
Hiii! Does anyone have this pergola & these stools?😇
Rock yard in work
hiii so this is my first time posting! i also only started playing in december 🙈 i want to have a sort of magical forestcore island and my first build is the museum area. i think i might’ve terraformed too close to the beach and river and now i don’t have ideas for the areas down by the stairs or how the river should go. any thoughts and tips for this build? worst case scenario i can shorten the entrance part but i’m DEFINITELY not moving the museum lol
i took these photos to share in another server, but i thought id share here as well !!
preview of honeywell 🐝
anyone interested in sending their money tree area feel free to! im looking for some inspiration for mine
I'm a big fan of leaning into the surrounding terra. It looks great so far
Just thought I'd share my island, its a work in progress but I'm pretty happy with it so far! ≥ᴗ≤
i love the barrels and foliage!!
The terraforming looks very natural too
time to decorate
Did a flower garden/shop build for my island! :))
I think it’s okay to ask here, so, is there anyway to get these corners to go flush against the cliff edges or nah?
Unfortunately no, cause there is the elevated part on top;
Even if it's corners are smoothed on, it still counts as if occupying the entire block
Ahhh okay okay, Ty!
Abandoned bike area 😛
my best bet would be try to fill the space on the ground level between the two circled and smooth that one out instead🧐
and even on the right of the right circle too, whatever you think looks better
You can try to make it look smoother, by making diagonal corners in the river on the spaces below the cliffs. It's not flush with the cliff, but it makes it look smoother, imo. You can do this by putting down two spots of water on different rows first, and then connecting them in the middle to make a diagonal
dont know if this is the right channel, but does anyone have the campsite sign up for trade?
thanks! didnt have that channel lol
if ur able to maybe put some stuff on top of there to blend it in a bit more?
idk if a bush or soemthing would fit there but it would look nice
I really want a medieval island but could someone get me a bush standee
what do I do if my resident services is really close to the airport but I don’t wanna restart cus it’s my second time restarting (,:
I don’t know what’s going on, I was working on a water boarder for my villagers homes but the water wouldn’t let me place on the boarders? It was working before but now it’s not…
If you want to make boarders you need to be a square behind where you want it to be, then click, it should work
Ok thank you!
It still won’t work… I had taken away the paths, I thought that was the problem but the water boarder won’t work, I had already tried before putting the path ways on my island
I am doing a no-terraforming island this time, and it is harder than i thought.
I usually put my villager houses in a nice neighborhood, but i don't have one space big enough to do that. anyone have ideas about smaller villager house groupings and how to decorate the areas nearby?
In my town, I have a main area “downtown” where there are more dense houses, and then a few “loner” houses for those who want a more quiet place to live.
I have an outdoor space by each house for each villager, like a yard, and a lot of activities for the villagers in the main area by my plaza.
Ooh! Do you have a dream code?
Currently as my island is new, I have an area where I densely plant trees for materials where nobody lives
Not yet, I started march 1, it’s not much to show yet
I'm pretty sure you need to be on the top part
I guess my related question is "how much space do you give your villager houses for yards"
Are you sure you're placing the water on the correct level? If you're trying to make a waterfall (in the video you posted above) you have to be on the level above, not the level you're standing on
like i have 2 blocks on one side and 4 on the other but it feels cramped
Right noww, most houses have a small garden and a place to sit / a table. Enough to fill a screen, about?
My priority is cool photo spots, though…
Pretty 
cool photo spots is a great idea
Does anyone have inspo pics for a hangout area behind nook’s cranny like for Timmy and Tommy to handout at, for a norm core island?
If u want to make a waterfall like that one behind you, u have to be above the cliff, not bellow
this is how my old island used to look like over a year ago, it wasn’t finished tho so maybe i will finish it in this one, i made a new one tho now, how do you guys like this one? i’m thinking to do something similar
omg,what is the name of that types of fences 😭
sorry english is not my first language 
It's called "fence" :))))
thank you so much
@devout gulch
Working on redoing my island
Small little apple orchard :D I'll definitely flesh it out more in the future but for rn I think it's cute 
I think it looks cute!
I am in the middle of putting together a potential layout for my island, I am not 100% sure what theme I want, I’m considering a Japanese countryside theme.
I would love some ideas, suggestions and visitors to come offer maybe tips, tricks and pointers
Does anyone have a good suggestion on how to “hide” this tile? (I cant place custom designs or items there)
Maybe sit a barrel there, or a stalll, it depends on the aesthetic you’re going for, maybe a stone stool
So adorable!
Yeah I'd put a barrel with maybe decorative bottles on top
Thank you so much!!
I’ll try that, thanks!
This little path on my island has been neglected for a while because I have no clue what to put on it. I feel like I need to put something behind the well and some more things on the path. This part of my island is forest/cottage core themed.
Can some people maybe come to my island and help me figure out how to design it? Idk how people do this and I’m struggling
Fake building 😛
Hii what is the best brick tile design on animal crossing??
I’m trying to do a mix of rural and forestry design, does anyone have examples or a direction they can point me in?
i know the japanese rural town is a popular theme. loads of tours of those on youtube
or farmcore if you dont want the japanese element
or maybe a town thats become overgrown so you get the rural element
That’s a good idea
A cluttered tropical entrance! 🌴🍹🌺
Thankyou so much @cosmic pike for inviting me to visit their island in a dream 💭 here are some of my favorite moments there
Omg is it Wizard of Oz Themed?!?!
Other players can’t help you terraform on your island, if that’s what you’re asking
Just ( kinda ) finished an area of my shopping street !
this is so unique! Do you have any photos of it? Im curious 
How do i fix this alignment??? Do i have to make the crops 3x3 as well? Cuz i liked how they look like this....
I want the space in front of the trees so i can put a little logo of all the trees in front of them
But with the crops like id rather them be right at the edge of the cliff
So im like wtf do i do
Yeah! I think i have photos of the inside!
Y'all have anyone in boxes?
I don’t understand what are you trying to fix?
Thoughts?
The path lines - it goes from the crops to boom middle of a tree instead of the areas around the tree? Idk how else to explain it
Oh yeah, you can’t do that. You can only plant trees on dirt and grass paths.
What..? I dont think u understand
I would want the paths between the trees to be aligned with the red here
But they are aligned with the yellow
And i cant figure out a way to fix it without making my crops into a 3x3 as well and then shifting the whole thing around
At this point i think that that is the only option
Bc even if i move the bottom tree down to the crop patch theres still one square left that would make it not aligned
Idk if im making sense lol
Actually i just figured out a solution
I can just move it so that the crops extend to the side instead
Started on my train station! I want to continue decorating but it’s getting late

I wish I could put trees on custom design paths 😭
First bit of decorated island! Back to the game after a few years, gonna try and decorate the entire place :)
Seriously? I wanna put something on my island but I’m not good at terraforming
Anyone got any paths like this?
#custom-design-help🎨 might have some!
I think it is under this code MA-9479-1672-3546
Update!
Very talented !
You all have such cute islands omg. Mine is so basic 
Today's progress on my fairy garden 
I love how the train has to jump over the planks xD 
(I assume the rails are continuing between them)
Just pretend the planks go up when the train comes 
That makes sense too 
Any ideas for this empy space on my island? (I also included pictures of my island for ideas i what i have)
Any ideas in how to improve this? The first two images are apart of a Aster Breeding method for blue flowers and the last one is an image of a WIP backwards method project.
I'm looking for ways to improve the area
This pond was boring and needed extra
I've filled up every corner of my island, and these last 3 rocks still haven't spawned in
Had a zone with flowers and weeds laying around and cleared it off and did a small star watching place :-) can’t wait for the meteor showers!! (peep my fit..)
What do you do if you run out of space in custom designs, can you upgrade to more?
Which of these looks better:
Or:
Just for clarification, the dirt patch is going to be a flowerbed in the future, I just don’t have the right flowers rn
This one
heyyy guys what do u think of this little café area i built? I feel its missing something tho idk what (plz ignore ugly Tia sitting there)
Any ideas on what I can do here?
Maybe add some of the plank paths or the stone ones !!
and some fencing !
perhaps some street lights
Hi
Hello everyone
Paths
I think some benches and bins would work there
Against the trees :3
does this look good or should I add more stuff to it??
I would add more stuff to it like flowers
ok ty
Yw!
guys I need help I don't know what to put here does anyone have ideas
Farmers market / orchard with apple pie stands (stalls)
i like that i think i will do that
What Could i build on These spaces (already have a Park, picnic area, Star gazing area, Play ground, amusement park)
u coukd try doing a flea market maybe? like some clotheslines, stalls, stuff like that! Flower Market... Cafe...
outdoor library
my waterfall is rlly coming along <3
That looks so cool!!
thank u !! :D
Does anyone have any like archeology/paleontology/fossil themed spots on thier Island they wouldn't mind sharing? trying to come up with ideas
anyone know any items that will help this table look more like a sunflower?
Don't know of any items, but as a last resort you could try custom pathways.
Hmm I'll probably end up doing that 🥲
found this path for you
New ruined/mossy park
THANK U SO MUCH !!!!
Super excited to see how this turns out for you!!
np!
whats youre theme if you have one?
um my island theme? I guess it's springcore/natural
same-ish, i thought you were doing meadow core so i thought i could give you flower codes
some updates to Dew 🤍🩷
my island entrance so far
paying homage to the original games i see! i love it
thank you!! yours is actually sooo stunning I love it! obsessed with the cherry blossom pic 
What fencing would go well with blue & white flowers and an ocean/beach themed island??
im working on a city island theme would love some help if anyone has any ideas dm me ty!
I just start my new island (forest theme)
wedding fence customised to blue would be a cute option
and any wooden ones customised to white
The rope fence also fits a beach theme really well!
can someone help me with my island design? i’m really struggling with filling up my island. this is some of the things i’ve finished and the vibe im going for. does anyone have ideas or can maybe visit my island to see what they’d do?
or just know the style name so i can look up inspo haha
I’m currently doing forest core
Maybe try that?
This is so cute!! 🩷
hello~ I was on here previously before i moved accounts buttt
i am looking for help theming my island after Welcome Home :] i have the color schemes and a few patterns (i've made some welcome home patterns myself) but any paths/item ideas and like house placements would be sososo helpful! Feel free to dm me!
Below i've put an image of the island i have! I'm about to start covering up the rivers right now.
Tysm!!
I’ve decided to go with white lattice for the main area (plaza and my house) but I’ll keep all your ideas in mind!!
I need some help / ideas for my island if anyone has any 😭 I want to do a rural city / forest vibe and idk what to add to it or how to make it look good
I was decorating and she was just so cute
Made a small street food era🫶 tryna figure out what more I can add, it’s too open space
I love how it turned out!!
Looks so cute
Got these 2 spaces that are empty and need some ideas for what to put there😭🙏 my island is city themed and very fish related
What if you get a couple fish models from flick and set up an area that looks like it’s teaching about fish
im having so much fun with custom designs hehe
Ohh it looks so good !!
add a fish hatchery and a fish market
I'm trying to make a hidden pathway on my island that leads to like a secret spot? Is there a way to terraform this to look natural and hidden?
Making a gothic island and not sure to what to do with these gaps anyone have ideas?? (The first one ima add more cliff obv but it seems so small idk)
I updated my entrance
Please visit my dream and give me recommendations! I will reward you up to 10 million+ bells if you recommend something!
Here are my first 2 builds for my entrance!
( yes I started a new island)
How bout a carnival?
thank you! you will get your reward tomorrow
Yay!
Anyone got any dark or spooky decorations I could have?
You could build a really great farmer's market here! It would give you a place for trees and a small garden, and then a bunch of stalls with cooked items, cash register, etc.
thank you! You will get your reward in 5 hours
@wary notch @valid vortex dm me!
Hi. It looks so great, where did you get the Japanese tables from?
Got from trading !
bump + pictures (color pallette, custom designs, etc)!

Rio would honestly be the PERFECT villager for the bird

Can anyone give me some good island design ideas?
the end of my haunted walkthrough area
Something like a cafe or bakery maybe?
thank you! you will get your reward in a few days
(I have exams)
almost finished with my eeveelution inspired flowers 
THE SYMMETRY 🤌
If anyone has the time to check out my island, I would love to hear the feedback on what I can improve on!
Here’s my Dream Address:
DA- 6586-9092-9680
My Car wash is done
Thank you!
Then Vs now. I suck at making buildings this is my first proper go at city 🥺🙈
THATS SO CUTEE!! Could I use that as inspiration on my own island ?
That’s so well done OmG love it

Thank you 🥺🥺 it's the first time I've tried actually making buildings!!
will do but Im sick atm but I will get to it once Im atleast home again and have my Switch:3
Some areas I would need feedback on are
- What do you think of the entrance?
- Anything I can do to improve the ice area?
- How to give it a more natural look. I was thinking of fixing the right hand side of the map.
- Any suggestions on how to improve the design around the Town Hall area?
I hope you get better!
I visited your island and what I would say is first wow it's amazing, but I found it a little hard to move around on the island near the water it was very well developed though.
Delete if not allowed, but am I allowed to ask for inspo pictures?
Particularly for small tucked away pond ideas? I’m trying to pick the game back up after a 2y+ break. And when I quit, I was flattening so I’ve come back to quite the mess. Any ideas or favourite spots anyone can share with me.
(I will be scrolling through previous posts here as well, also let me know if there’s any other channels for inspo or anything I’m new to this server)
Thank you! What part of the water was it crowded?
There was a lot of trial and error and I kept playing around with the ideas until it worked as I was working on the sections.
Right side near the back and left side at the front
The airport welcoming area is really nice
I did find the floring on the beach a little odd but it is also neat but the beach may just be a little crowded in general
When you say “left side at the front”, are you referring to this part.
The right side near the back, you’re talking about the pink sections, along with the three towers and red apples on the stone chair?
No I mean yhe part that has the white wood logs along the water
Anything you suggest I should keep or get rid of?
I think it was just hard to get into the area I would say make more space to access the beach
Ya
711 build
Is that on nintendo? 😮
Yes
I updated the island since last night. I took some feedback from @silk wedge to make the beaches feel less "busy".
The feedback I want to hear is the ice section and if there's any suggestions I can do to improve on it. Right now, it's a work in progress and would love to hear what you guys have to say!
The Dream Address is 6586-9092-9680.
I semi-followed a guide on Pinterest to create this little red farmhouse with a pumpkin patch out in front of it.
I may move it somewhere more spacious after summer in game, but for now, I'm happy with it.
A little Easter build since spring has come!
That looks so cute!
Omg thank you!
loving how bright my island is starting to look 
Aww it makes me excited for summer
help i cant decide if i like the lighter or darker brick
im rockin w the lighter brick but if you want a more moody darker forest vibe, id def go for the darker
Villager house designs for goldie and wendy/vesta on my island!!
I agree. Gonna attempt to get her/him soon :)
My map 
SO CUTEE
Why are there holes in this custom designnnnn
It's because if you make like a full custom path with no transparency, it won't wrap around the default paths!
Both these custom paths have a dirt tile underneath them, but the green has a pixel of transparency in the corner so it's wrapping around the dirt path underneath
I dont get it lol
Basically those lil holes let that custom design go around the shape of a default path well
How do i get rid of them
You can't, it was put there by the owner 
Ugh
if you put a default path underneath, such as a sand or dirt path, then put the custom path on top of it, it shouldn't have the holes
TY
Theres still like 6 brown dots if u zoom in
this is so adorable!!
Thank you!
Anyone got any headstones and skeletons?
It's unfortunately unavoidable
the creator included them so you could overlay them with default paths like that. If you put sand path under them, they will probably be the least visible, as sand path is the lightest option
Wdym by overlay with the default paths? Cause in that image i put either dirt or brick or wood path under the custom path i don't remember which
Yes I mean exactly that - the way in which it assumes the shape of the dirt/etc. path, having the same edges as it does. If the transparent pixel wasn't there, the custom design would stick out over the dirt/etc. path's edges, and would have that sharp, square edge like in your initial picture. You can try it by placing a custom design with no transparent pixels on top of a dirt/etc. path, if you wish ^^
I see, so with this custom path its destined to always have a hole in it?
So should i try to find one without a transparent pixel?
If it bothers you, yes, then you unfortunately need to find a new one; there's no way to remove the transparent pixel from this one. Feel free to ask for replacement suggestions in #custom-design-help🎨 if you wish ^^
Ic tyy
you cannot layer custom designs over default paths unless they have that one transparent pixel. i know it's weird but it will not layer and will just be a regular square design on the floor. that transparent pixel is put there on purpose
I see! That is weird yeah lol
I dont really care if the custom designs are over a path for me i just dont want holes in them so yea i have to search for one without the transparent pixel i think
I never thought it's hard to do a greek mythology style island cuz I don't know where to get greek items stuff on treasure island
the lack of greek inspired items makes it hard to be honest, but we can't advise anyone on how to use treasure islands as it's against the server's rules
Okay thank you @restive river
Im trying to figure out what other things i can do at this entrance to make it just. Bit better
Slight other angle
how do you all organize your neighborhoods? how do you make them look pretty? mine look a mess and it’s the only part of my island that i hate!
you could add a little stone drinking fountain or a bug/butterfly model, a pile of leaves, a bicycle up against a tree
Some mushroom designs would be cute here. Maybe some wooden stakes on the sides of the path for an old fence look
I would choose the upper right.
I would say the one your pointer is on
It not big space
I think the one you're currently pointing at is decent for space. Remember you can always terraform in the future, but for the most space in the beginning, I say the third one
I beed more space
Which
The one im pointing at?
Ty cause idk much about map layout
So i needes help
I reseted my island last night yesterday
Eventually, once you finish the main quest youll be able to remove rivers and flatten land with the terraforming app so i would mostly chose the dock layout and river placement imo
so big space shouldnt be much of an issue as you can create that later 
oh k
so the map i choose is perfect?
I think that'll be good for you, the third one. It gives you a lot of space for the beginning, while not losing other space. Like 1., top left for example. It gives a shit ton of space for the beginning, but you lose so much space because of how the rivers are. On the left and right of your island, it's all squished!
i need more space for it
yep
The one i choose on bottom left
Heck yeah, good luck with it man!
Ty dude
Good luck!
Ty :))
The on choose on the bottom left?
of the four you sent?
That ones nice yes, if you visualise the river gone or just differently you get a lot of space, same with the mountain/hill
So if half river gone then that the perfect map?
I cant tell you if it will be the perfect map, any map could be the perfect map, but i would chose that one out of the 4 because it has most potential in my opinion
The south map layout not that good cause gives small space i heard
Which on the top left or top right?
i like top left but the rivers on the bottom might not be your style
then chose that one! It will look great
Yep
Btw it can be any island map layout you like to choose?
Wdym?
It could be any island map layout you like?
^
Sorry, im a bit slow today, but if you mean that any island map you choose will look great, then id say yes it just depends on how you tackle your island designing lol
Yep
A rainy day and Burrow finally has an organised farm 
Omg that is SO nice
Cutee I love that
if you don't mind me asking, what's the creator code for the path ? it's cute :3
Yes, yessss of course!!! This is the creator code, it’s two sets of pathing so you’ll need a lot of room in your design app! It’s very worth it though, I’ve used it throughout my island (as much as I prefer the footsteps of the actual paths)
If i wanna have the fences as the same type, which one do u guys think looks better?
Swapped
Wooden, the metal give more of a business/inner city feel.
So I guess it depends what kind of mood you're going for.
idk
i kinda went with the metal cuz it matches the cobblestone lol
i could try swapping the cobblestone with a brown color flooring tho
that would take a while tho
take a dream to seaside🌊🌙🍄 Ive been working on this island since 2021 and completed it today! id appreciate if you messaged me and let me know what you think of it🥰 If you have anything you think i should design differently also let me know!
dream address: 1799-9533-2891
Omg what item are those frog guys? Are they from a collab event or a recipe I can eventually get? Thanks and your island’s atmosphere is so chill and lovely ^^
I am in the process of rearranging how my museum looks on the outside, and would really like to get a few opinions on the build and if it fits with the rest of the island - only the bits with similar items.
Can I ask that here (don't want to spam the chat with pictures) or would anyone be so kind and have a little bit of time for that via private messaging, please?
thanks.
those are from the sanrio set!
Feel free to post pics here! It's basically what the channel is for 
If you have a bunch Discord will bundle them up nicely if you post all at once, too, so it will not clutter
Thank you.
this is what my museum currently looks like and wherever else I used a similar style.
Thought that might be the case. Are they and other Sanrio items still purchasable through ppl’s ATM boxes if they played during the collab times? I got into the game just this past year so I missed my chance with the pocketcamp things
this is the new plan, but it is much lighter then the pillars at the entrance or the pond.
they should be, yes 🙂
for the Sanrio items specifically, if you can find the NFC cards, you can still have the items added to your own atm catalogue.
The only thing it is sadly really too late for, for new starters or resets, are the pocket camp items. as far as I am aware.
will the lighter model clash with the tad more aged ones I used elsewhere?
and does the museum give of Greek vibes? thanks.
What are NFC cards? I also chatted with someone who said they would be willing to purchase the Pocket Camp items I wanted to send to me once I buy nintendo online again.
amiibo cards 🙂 they work with nfc.
And what is NFC 😅
Near Field Communication (NFC) technology allows users to make secure transactions, exchange digital content, and connect electronic devices with a touch.
it's how the cards (or coins, or amiibo's) can communicate with your switch or in some cases 3ds device 🙂
In my opinion the vine pillars fit well with the castle props. In terms of it giving a “Greek” vibe I think less so because of the castle architecture style but I also don’t know a lot about Greek things. Also those statues are like an African king of gold? Or maybe I’m getting confused by another figure.
if you check the trade section here, I am sure you can find some of the items for trade against ingame items/currency or even for free, if you're lucky 🙂
Yeah I will try :)
thank you.
I was aiming for Mykonos (without the labyrinth). 🙂
Those items were the closest I could find that might fit the style. - That, or I am lacking imagination. 😄
The Statue doesn't come in other colors, sadly. but the Greeks loved colorfully painted statues back then ^^ they weren't as marble white as they appear today. - as far as I am informed.
It'll be a pitty to loose the bench, however the view from this particular one wasn't picturesque anyway. 😄
i dont know what the fuck to do with my island anymore after visiting such cool dream addresses lmao
they're all so complex and have so much stuff
that's so cute omg
very lively, it looks amazing 🙂
tysm!! 2x
rn im trying to gt 3 stars T-T
Anyone want to come to my island? I’m lonely 😭
Omd I need to visit when your finished 
i’ll come to your island when i’m off work!!
ill be posting a da ^_^
When u off work?
i’m off at 4 today
Heya! wondering if anyone could help me with my (purple flat witchcore island)
What do you need help with
I would love an island consultant to help me design some future spaces and maybe re layout some areas. I’m going for a zen/japanesse/natural forest approach. I just unlocked terraforming and it’s been overwhelming and a learning curve to make pretty aesthetically pleasing areas!
Happy to pay 1-5mil bells depending on amount of help and ideas provided!
Currently getting nooks cranny rn, but i need stuff for the entrance
my abandoned cemetery area

that’s a cute idea, i’d live to see it!
on my old island, i had a smiley face pond
Well this island is an island where I promised I’d try new things..
and I haven’t seen a fish/seashell pond ANYWHERE
I believe it's super possible, the fish I know is doable. But the seashell you would have to get it a certain size to show the cresents
Give me a sec
See I'm not sure if the bottom part of the clam is possible since(the umbo). Since terraforming is wierd
OOHH I’ll try this ty!!
Do u think you could draw up a (preferably diagonal but normal works too) fish pond?
Boop
SO CUTE TY
Look so niceee
I love this may I take inspiration?
Oh this is beautiful
Thank you
I’m very lost on ideas to do, any suggestions?
guys does someone have like a cool inspo for a nice view/landscape i could do on my island? (natural and pretty)
City core under way
Flower field with the bushes
Sunken lake
Agree
I fixed my Arcade area
Should I change my purple flowers out for pink ones for cherry blossom days?
can anyone help me
Thank you!
What do you need?
personally I like the purple flowers with the cherry blossoms
hi does anyone have easy ideas for decorating ur island
What neighborhood layout would work best with the little area on the left of resident services?
I kind of made a list of things I wanted on my island and worked on it one project at a time
Built a dedication to Fushimi Inari Taisha (Great Shrine).
Made a cute little ✨area✨
Does anyone know the measurements of this neighborhood layout?
I found it on Pinterest
Hey is their anyone who's able to make me a layout? I rly need an idea cus I domt know what im doing. ( ill send a photo of my map in dms!)
Guys is my path too crazy at the end or not ?
Look at how pretty this is! I was getting tired of having to whip out my ladder to get to Redd's dock area so I started terraforming for an incline, and ended up with this after 2 hours lol (yes I time traveled to tomorrow)
kinda nice entrance i say
Very Nice!!
nah i think it looks great!!
I mean at the start vs at the end
yee thats wat i mean
hmmm i do suggest maybe widening the path just a bit at the start
hey very off-topic but, how do I get that hairstyle? :0
Its a piece of clothing called wig with ribbon i thnk!
(Not mine)
Its actually a hat item it uses your hair color in game and just adds different bows
A few from Moonacre! Not finished the island but quite happy with these areas so far 🌙
map n pietro’s area!! also js random area i did
I LIBEIT
so good omg
I LOOOVEEE ITTTTTTRT
ITS SO YUMMY
This is so cute!!! I think a good item for this would be the bamboo grass
i used it so much on my old island that its scary to use now skucish /hj
Really struggling with layout, I want my island to be inspired by this book map. Anyone have any ideas?
hiii - can i see some neighborhood setups, please?
alternatively, could someone help me set up a design?
re doing my island once again but this time i decided I'd base it off my new leaf town :—) (small town + sort of run down town core, very minimal)
i have the same paths for my railway, very beautiful !
thank you:—)
sorry for such a terrible photo, but homes so far:D hate that u can only move one a day:(
cherry blossom season on bleeeeck (=´ω`=)♪
trying to make a market area. as you can see I put a cliff, added a simple wooden panel with a custom design and added another custom design on the ground on top of the cliff to make it look somewhat like a building. I don’t know if there are better alternatives lol.
Have you tried the Store Front? Also medieval building side and and retro bus stop are pretty common for fake buildings
thank you! :D.
island design so far since i unlocked terraforming last week:D
trust there’s a lot more but farms don’t show up on the map!
the paw prints are so cute
right!!! the ref was so hard to follow but here it is:D
Maybe connect the water outlets so it looks sort of like the one in the book. I thought nooks cranny could be like the meat market or business district. Five roses could be like able sisters. Museum could be like the old square. And then just put the houses around to fill the space and for the roads, just gotta put a lot of brick down instead of custom design on grass that way can see it when you look at the map.
got some new spots on my island :]
now I gotta go update my dream address 🚶
That's awesome!! May I ask what wall that is? I'm trying to find stone walls that could be used for a half 'Over the Garden Wall' inspired island.
Anyone have any Japanese themed islands I can visit and get ispo from??. Please pm me with dream code
Just gonna ask that
Who has Japanese codes, and what inspo for Japanese
And also furniture that’s themed like it
Hey there trying to have someone help my island design needs some finishing touches and ideas
Also is there a way to connect the pathes for the stairs/main area
This guys…I need some major help with my island! Can anyone give me a hand please?
hey
It's the castle wall and castle gate ! You can either buy it at nooks cranny or at the happy home paradise shop. I love over the garden wall btw 🥹
Anyone got themed yard design ideas for Cookie
Thank you! I don't have hhp, so I'll just have to wait for nooks cranny!
if you have a fairycore/kidcore island, how did you decorate your beach? I have one part of my beach undecorated and I have no idea what to do
i just put flowers all over my beach
fair enough
I was gna do that but whenever i run through the flowers and it breaks I have to replace it with a new one because it doesn't grow back
Thats a lot like mine when I was starting out on my final island : D
I recommend adding more high areas in the lower sections of the island. The more verticality the better in my opinion (but at the end of the day it's whatever makes you most happy)
I wish someone can help me design my island haha I'm suck at designing 😭 I want like a kingdom type of island with lots of waterfall and have my villagers like a small village
Meanwhile my island is like random stuff go burrr
I plan to remove the whole 3rd layer, anybody got ideas for my island, i dont really have a theme
Keep the height, the 3rd layer can really... Elevate, your island.
Also make a nice big park area is always fun.
Like a nature park.
Thanks
If you have online I could also give you some so could buy them in the townhall
No no, it's fine. I'll wait for them to appear. I wouldn't wanna bother you
can someone tell me why they won't let me put a bridge here I feel like I'm going crazy
Rate my museum area
The tiny bit beside the mountain
Right now 4/10, possible potential 9/10
I mostly decorated the mountain area :3 the museum part was ehh just an after thought
OMG, WHAT ARE THOSE HANGING BLUE THINGS?! They look AWESOME!!
At 0:17?
These’re pengolas
May I ask where you get them from, if you know?
I think it's miles.
As in the currency.
I could be wrong, I'll have to check when I'm on later
it is c:
tysm!!
I think it’s because of that little triangle piece by your waterfall. If you can’t break it, maybe try move the flowers over a bit to make space over there for the bridge
it's ok, i ended up making more space on the side. thank you!
Ohhh okay! Glad you got it fixed. Just from that picture alone, your island looks super cool! I’m not the best with terraforming
this is what it looks like right now, just need to add the finishing touches
normally if I don't know what to do with an area I just do rounded edges with a bunch of waterfalls😭
so far that's worked pretty well, until I forget to finish decorating and weeds/flowers grow all over
Oooh!! Thanks for the idea! There’s this whole section in the back of my island that is just empty space. I made a cute elevated campsite area and a park but other than that I was at a loss as to what to do next
Lol! I know what you mean. I have an idea in my head and then I forget about it or it’s not exactly how I envisioned so I stop and go back to it later and there’s so much weeds to pull!
what I've seen alot of people do is completely elevate their island, and have "sunken" areas with waterfalls or even buildings and stuff. if you've ever seen those on pinterest, which I found super cool
but I'm almost done with my island so I probably wouldn't restart to do that lol
do you have a theme going on for your island?
gosh i really really love those vine tree thingies
they're so cool!! gives like a mystical foresty vibe
Sort of. But really only for my villagers living area. They live in like a city/suburb area; some have “apartments” while others have a house with a yard. And the two shops and the museum are close to there along with resident services
But then when you cross the bridge, it’s just grass lol
aw that sounds cute
Well, i managed to get all the furniture and whatnot i need for a segment of my island. And i do believe i know what to make next. A shop area next to my residence service.
HOW do you get the mushrroooms?? i love iiit
there is a mushroom season depending which hemisphere you're in, and you can get recipes from balloons/message bottles during that time!
the pink mushroom at the top is from the super mario bros collection
Wait, what season is mushroom season for Northern?
November
Wow. Nice!
LF: someone to decorate my whole island to fit an alt/goth/punk aesthetic! can be inspired in berlin's streets, suburban kind of city!
FT: nyp in bells!
Our themed are kinda alike
some of my fav parts of my island 
A build I made today does anybody have any ideas for the free space infront able sisters?
How do you decorate small areas? Ideas would be appreciated (cottage/fairycore)
Im slightly annoyed that one of the rocks spawned in with a very different design, does it bother anyone else much? Im not really willing to spend another few days on getting it to look uniform, that wasnt my intention from the start, but now its just the bottom right one that looks totally different by coincidence 😭
Can someone please give me build ideas for the areas marked in the picture?
Here is the list of builds I already have on my island:
- Butterfly sanctuary
- Souvenir shop
- Farm
- Farmers market
- Orange orchard
- Maze
- 2 Micro neighbourhoods
- Coffee shop
- yard sale area
- Dig site
- laundromat
maybe at the bottom little islands that you can hop across
between them flowing a little river
What about an ice cream shop?
Do u possibly have inspo pics?
I’ve thought about it but all I can come up with are very small builds
No sorry
But I’m sure you can find it it’s popular to like place little grass stones and terraform so it’s just small areas and then a river around it
Ouu that'd also my theme u could make little villager Jobs or gyroid neighborhood
Gyroids never thought of that thank you
Ofc your welcome
How bout a outdoor theater?
hi
fairycore is goated, used to have a kidcore theme so some of my areas are still a bit kidcore
but blends very well together (because I'm lazy to remove all of it haha)
there is a YouTube video from luna rosebelle(?) where she did these mini garden ponds for her secret beach
oh they called it fairy ponds, but one youtube search and it's the first one. there are also other really popular ponds like a spiral pond or a crescent moon pond

Guys help me with my japanese island i need a plan its flattened 🥲🥲🥲
I have this open area on my island but I need some ideas on what to do, this is my first time actually trying to design something.

Make the entrance a shrin idk how to spell it I'm srry😭😭
Any inspo ideas or items to use?

Okay thanks so much!
Yall this is what i have for inspo so far can yall help form a map plan
Also my villager lineup is legendary:
Judy
Puddles ( may replace for tangy)
Pietri (may replace)

which one looks better? I already have alot of grand birdwings in my island, no atlas moths. but i can't tell which one matches better
I (personally) really like the birdwing! but yeah if you think you have too many - the moth is still nice :)
thank you!
Hey yall what path would look good here?
This is so gorgeous
i made a little farm thing with like a fruit tree inbetween the crops
This is so cute, love it
Quick dump of my town so far!! :3
wip core
this is SO pretty n cozy 
I think a wooden one because you have wooden fences and wooden trellis. if you use a wood path that is not connecting you can add flowers or decorations on the side if that makes sense
a rock one would also look good but maybe light colored.such a cool fountain tho!
Ok thank you so much!! :DD
Thanks!!
these kind of builds are so cool!!
A natural path would be amazing
Ima also have to stealing some inspo🥲
Ok ok :>
Honestly I'm honored go ahead 

done something small!!
What can I put in these big gaps?
You could do a public gazebo/music area setup, with a standing mic, instruments and topiaries to add some decor to it
I thought about it but there’s 3 villagers on the left, and 3 on the right, I have a picnic park area but i considered putting a custom design for a picnic blanket there and a basket or something
That would be a good idea. There’s a two picnic basket items in the game, the clay pitcher goes well with a picnic too, and picnic blanket designs are very easy to find online
Does anyone have a graveyard on their island?
I’m doing a small memorial/tombstone behind Able Sisters (cuz of their parents) and need ideas as to what else to add besides the two western-style gravestones.
That’s so sad you know…
This game is so cute yet there’s that morbid lore 😂😭
Need DA
whenever i finish it, i'll definitely send it in this server
Blossom seasonnn🌸
Could someone please give me ideas to fill up large spaces on my island? I don’t have many items…but any help would be great. Can’t find anything that isn’t crazy on Pinterest
Make a cafe
What would I need to do a cafe?
What’s your aesthetic
Don’t really have a specific one…maybe like woodsy or Fairycore? I have a like a picnic area, hedge maze…
a shot of a build I made for shino :D
the overuse of bamboo makes it a bit hard to see some of the stuff i put in
i also made a campsite area for the campsite 
imma show a small bit of it, theres more but eh
some of my old designs hehe @full karma
Working on a football stadium! Looking at using some simple panels for the exterior once I see them in my shop! 😅
Cute, dude!
Thank you! 😁
I restarted last week and this heart shaped lake was just there - natural heart lake!
Now that I am at 3 stars I am thinking of maybe making it the campground
That’s crazy a natural heart pond!!
is there anything i can add to this area? it's supposed to be a small picnic area but idk what i can put to fill up the space
a fountain in the middle might look cool! or some custom designs for blankets could help fill the space! a lot of places where you bc an picnic have tables too if u want to add some tables and benches! Not mine but here’s some inspiration i used for an area in my campsite
a little pond in the middle
with an island maybe and a tree / flowers⭐️⭐️
I hope videos are allowed (If not I apologize!) but ty to all that helped me to complete my build 🙂 here's the finished product
Apologies if videos aren't allowed!
My football stadium is getting there slowly! Not much left to do 😅
Any ideas/tips is greatly appreciated!
aww this is so cute!
Thank you!!! 😁
Lean into the vibe and make a hotdog/concession stand, ticket booth, have you thought of a team name and mascot? 
can anyone give me some tips on how to make my paths look... better? i'm trying to branch off the trail near the town hall, but it looks... wrong.
Try vary in different widths ! I find using a mix of the edges together (like you have to make 2/3 wide), as well as the single paths can help with shape. I have a small example from my old island (circled the single part in red!)
Most of the time paths look pretty plain until it’s decorated a little around them though, so maybe add a little around and see if it still feels off!
Do yall have any decorations, items, or even outfit suggestions for a whimsical, twee, or hippie themed island?
anyone have any tips for my terraforming ?
hammocks!
(please ignore how late it is for me)
Where should I move the two houses I circled in red? I was thinking of moving them to the plaza area.
if having enough bells is moving all houses to the beach to be able to terraform with hearts content a good idea?
If you have the bells, absolutely!! Saves you from moving them around constantly out the way
I am struggling so much with layouts, is there a good place to get help?
Great ideas! My plan is to make an entrance at the front with a ticket booth (no idea how I'm going to attempt this yet! 🤣) I'm hoping to make a big plaza around the stadium (in the long run) so adding some concessions + food is a great idea! I've been very boring with the team name and it's literally my island name 🤣 - Strikerton FC! A mascots a great idea! You've given me plenty to think about! Thank you!!! 😁
I was inspired with someone’s fairy village to create a gnome village
depending what theme you're going for it's more natural to have alot of rounded edges. so for the parts where you see a long straight edge, try to extend those/reduce those into multiple rounded edges and you can fill in the "holes" made with items if you'd still like to keep that straight illusion
I cannot for the life of me think of what to put here, any ideas? No specific theme, my island is honestly just whatever:)
Book area? Small Cafe?
Sometimes less is more. A small picnic area or just a bunch can go along way
A picnic area or a little park would be cute
how does everyone decorate/terraform river mouths? I have this one coming in from the south that I have no idea what to do with it - I've done one that goes into a circle pond with loads of little land island (as you can see on the map) so I don't want to do that again! please give me ideas
Scenic two-tier tropical waterfall with palms and hibiscus on the sides?
oooh good idea, thank you! ill look into it :)
Hiii I need help
What do I do in these areas (it’s right in front of resident services and to the right) my resident services is in the middle
Island theme?
Dark forest
I will be set in October-November around 5-8pm
Would any of these work?
(None are mine, just taken for inspiration)
YES !
Glad I could help!!
Is there a website I can use to design my island or do I use have to do it piece by piece?
Island designer is a useful website for planning it out (if I got the name right)
Thank you I’ll check it out
I need terraforming help! I have a 7x5 space I want to fill in naturally! Please leave any images or suggestions of natural fillers!
I just unlocked terraforming a day ago and I'm working on my entrance
Still very unfinished, but what are we thinking so far? Any ideas? The white squares on the ground are blocked out for a bridge whenever I can afford one
if there's a path way variant, some stones scattered would make the pathway really pop! i'm pretty sure i've seen the exact same path way /w a stone scatter variant somewhere...
otherwise looks perfect to me 🙂↕️
I agree! I didn't see any scattered stones from the creator I got this code from, but it would absolutely look lovely with some
Thank you
This is the first time I've messed around with paths and terraforming at all so I am just trying to figure out what to do on the spot lmao
I have some stones, but no idea where I got it from 😭
I finished up the picnic area 
it turned out way better than what i expected, especially since I don't have nintendo online and I don't have many things to work with
so cute!
is this better?
That terraforming is so good!!
what should i put in this spot in front of my resident services? i have a citycore island and a parking lot leading to this area and the front of rs
This is my island so far, what should I add in the small section of the last photo? My theme is fallcore
Do not underestimate a simple bench, light post, telephone booth, etc combo. Sometimes less is more and gives other things around it air to breath and be appreciated.
New vs old.
Can someone send some cute whimsy island layouts please! X
i can’t figure out how to do my entrance
not my pics but i found some on pinterest
Thank you very much 🥰
I think that path is able to be used with a couple others like these
I'm not sure tho, and I might be entirely wrong, but I could've sworn those paths either match, or were made to go together. Could also be mixing a couple of them up
This is helpful, thank you :) The top right one would definitely work with it, regardless of who made it. Seems like it uses the same base path just without the leaves. I've seen it on pinterest before but lost the code by the time I unlocked paths
What should I do in this area??
playground
I created the American flag out of Hyacinth flowers 🇺🇸 🪻
Whats that weird log that like is stripped at the end?
I say this a lot, draw it out on a note pad, make some concept arts of what you want, they don't have to be good, also get some reference images.
Does anybody have any city core entrance ideas where the plaza is close?
Does anyone have any tropicore ideas?
i wish i could draw but also i lack the creativity layout brain like i don’t know where to put things
i can try to find some on pinterest! hold on :))
not my pics (again) but here’s what i found 💞
let me check pinterest for you too!
okay so imagine if some photos where they put other stuff had resident services there instead
Hi! This video includes three entrance speed-builds for various resident services placements. I also show off some extra ideas at the end. Thanks for watching! ヽ(=^・ω・^=)丿
Can you keep track of how many times I say "resident services" in this video? It's a bit excessive lol I am sorry!

Tiny library. A DIY craftable
Ah, thank you!!
Hey! I have these weird spots on my island. what should I fill them which? I have an city/urban core island.
Any help & ideas is appreciated 🙂
The sand area could be a playground bit. That's what I imagine
Does anyone have any forestcore/farmcore/fallcore (whilst still looking farm and forest core) entrance ideas? Or ideas in general 🤔
Ahh tysm!!
Fish n chips that I made 💗 referenced off of Pinterest
Does anyone have any whimsy island ideas!

That one looks like a fountain in front of resident services but idk if that works without mods
it could be mods
Thank you very much!
Of course!!
still a wip but making good progress!!
does anyone here have some paths on hand from same and/or different creators that all bind together, so tl;dr versatile paths that have multiple combos (at least 2 variations)? especially natural paths and/or rural, or town paths! : -]
My island is lowkey bright and boring but hopefully I can hatch more ideas
Does anyone have any celestial island ideas or layouts! X
something like these? (not my photos)
Yes thank you so much ❤️
not mine but this is so cool
Has anyone got any ideas on how I can fit the nooks cranny and able sisters into my gothic island theme? So far I planned to have the museum as a grave yard because it kinda looks like a crypt
Anyone got any farmers market inspiration?

I cant decide wether to do a tropical or cottage core island 🥲 ive already kinda started on tropical but ive only really done one little bit, and i have tropical villagers but i also reallllyyyyy like cottage core villagers and the style! Does anyone have advice?

Hi y’all!! I’m having trouble with small spots on my island & how to fill them! I have this area which is in front of a little laundry area then next to the laundry area I have this little space with a DIY & tool shed. What should I do in the front spot & the tool shed area?? Any suggestions??
Going down to the left is a Zen area & to the left is my Apple orchard if that helps with the skinny space in front
Finally done with my Western town.
This is for Zucker im starting to decorate after planning a lot
What do you guys think
i love that wow
I like the dock area.

Does anyone have cool landscaping inspiration I want to start a project
These are a few from my old islands
How long have you been playing to collect all of that?? // how do you get all those cool things???
Ty
Album cover vibes
i havent unocked terraforming yet i only started playing like a few weeks ago but these are two areas ive decorated , what do we thiink?
any advice would be extremely appreciated
I played acnh for 3 years but that was my 8th island, and I use treasure islands
Btw does anyone have any advice, I started a new island yesterday, it’s spring core and the colors are pink and green with hints of white, any builds, or inspiration I can use?
Like these?
Yes!
Anyone have any ideas on how to make this area look nice? Idk what to do here lol...
Was thinking of putting lanterns around the water as well - plus this one square to hop on instead of a bridge
Maybe i should reshape the island thing so its not just a rectangle but idk if that would pose an issue with the rocks
One area left to redesign... I'm not sure if I'm sad or happy.
You can add fences/hedges or trees around the rocks so when you hit them, you dont get pushed back
I just got all my rocks in place but I don’t know how to decorate around it can someone give me ideas please?
I drew in the buildings where I wanna put them
including house there will be terraforming to go along with is!
Did I pick good spots?
I made a cozy bamboo-style area to relax in 🥲 (I'm still starting out, so I used what I could)
yall ur guyss islands are so cute im dyinnnn

Hey everyone! I just started my island last week and I am going to start terraforming soon. Was wondering what your favorite themes are? I can’t decide on a theme. What are the easiest themes to get items for and for a non creative person to design an island with?
I think cottagecore is pretty popular
what ive been working on today
kyles house is supposed to be a workshop
other part is a transition area for the nook store
i think im getting better at taking pictures😭
I look at this and think its too patchy, unless that's what you're going for
Do u guys sketch out plans for ur island before doing them? I have trouble staying on task because i have so many ideas and really need to see it all together before spending bells on it
I still need to learn how to do this
oooh this looks great!! loveee the 2nd pic! 
tysm!! the 2nd is probably my fav pic ive gotten of my island
Does anyone have a tiered neighborhood for the villagers? If so please message me I have questions lol
heres some photos of my ideas if that helps! i just need a layout idea for the entrance really, thank you so much!
these arent the best photos but its all i have saved 
these r stunning!! i love the vibe 
i dont have any inspo pics but maybe an abandoned visitor center?
thank you so much!! and this is a really great idea, i love it!!
definitely gonna make one!
goodluck!! i bet itll look fantastic! ^_^
thanks a bunch!!
💗
anyone have a design for free/giveaway items area?
round the corners a bit, it looks super unnatural
make it yardsale themed! Boxes, random misc items, etc.
layout ideas? i don’t wanna reset but i hatee what ive done so far (only the south area mostly). idk what to dooooo ugh
Farmers market inspo?
I love crazy maps like this!!!
Honestly like this idea
Your island name is so cute
Haha thanks it's my cat's name
Island is awesome. May I ask if I can see what you did outside redds? The little beach and then the little alley of sorts?
You're welcome! Don't hesitate to visit with the dream code if you want to see the whole island 🙂
I'll have to consider. Never visited a dream island before!
It's like visiting with a dodo code but on your own
I'll pop it on my wishlist to do!
