•́ ‿ ,•̀ saw that @slim ruin

[dapper ginkgo]

@woven drift yes please dm the code🥺

[woven drift]

Okay! Gimme a sec

[slim ruin]

😰

[umbral arch]

first day of terra, went a little overboard and too hardcore

[woven drift]

@dapper ginkgo I hope my internet connection is stable enough for it, otherwise I'll make a vid

[dapper ginkgo]

@woven drift it’s ok! Either is fine

@umbral arch don’t you think everything is squeezed in one place a little?😰 like there’s a campsite right when you come out of the airport

[woven drift]

Maybe he's gonna change that up when terraforming is done ^^

Love the hearts though

[umbral arch]

@dapper ginkgo yeap havent moved anything yet HAHAHAHA just started today 😂 removed ALL THE LEVELS

[round crater]

I'm worried how you're gonna catch all the river fish lol

[umbral arch]

the river still works fine!!

[cerulean belfry]

Anybody know anything that would work well for like a NYC themed neighborhood? I've got the utility pole and a lot of brick fencing and trash cans but thats about it

[umbral arch]

apparently as long as its a loooong stream its still flowing, that stretch has all the river fishes!

[cerulean belfry]

Also phone booth and benches of course

[fringe vessel]

I have this big area here; any ideas on what i could do?

[heavy summit]

paging doctor tortol

[reef lynx]

Kinda hate how the stairs don’t align with the house. Should I remove the bridge and put two stairs instead. Or just keep it how it is

[winter phoenix]

2 stairs is 1/4 of your entire stair allowance

[heavy summit]

ur house will never be aligned with the stairs i think

[winter phoenix]

so is it worth it?

[woven drift]

You could just move it to the right a little or the left and say screw alignment

[floral ruin]

patiently waiting for bridges/inclines to demolish and buildings to move, then create a bunch of grand waterfall inclines (can’t TT)

[dense heart]

i kinda like this pathing

[heavy summit]

look at the door, it will either be on the left stair or right stair, it cant never be in the center

[dense heart]

@floral ruin idk if u know but just incase u can only have max 8 inclines and 8 bridges

[floral ruin]

ooh @dense heart is there a QR code for both the white and the surrounding brown

[dense heart]

it hella screwed me over for my original island layout

yeah!

the same guy made it all i’ll pm

[reef lynx]

Very true will probably be easier to just keep it then. Annoying how they don’t line up

[floral ruin]

ooh i might have to take out one of the grand waterfall inclines bc each require two inclines

and i have 3 planned

[dire coyote]

Im looking for inspiration for an orchard

[patent sky]

Or put the incline horizontally and don't worry about alignment

[dire coyote]

fruit tree farm

[patent sky]

Or do a switch back if you wanna get fancy

Or do what @heavy summit did and put the stairs behind the house

[barren swift]

right so i have this entire chunk of land above my house. west houses fruit trees. east is my museum and campsite. i was thinking a park, but i’m not sure how to transition into it. any ideas?

the path to the left that looks unfinished it basically the end of my fruit trees. the part that is barely going north

[past perch]

How many spaces did you give your villagers' yards? I'm worried that 3 wide X 5 deep is too small

[barren swift]

me?

[woven drift]

Oo not much bc mines all in a small area

[past perch]

Anyone really

[fringe vessel]

I gave my villagers moats

[heavy summit]

imagine giving ur villager space

[past perch]

I like the idea of giving them gardens or trees

[woven drift]

@heavy summit LMAO WHY A JAIL

[heavy summit]

cause its a prison island

[woven drift]

i-

i like your mindset

[heavy summit]

guards were usless so i replaced them

[woven drift]

this is one lil bit on my islandd

[woven drift]

guards-

[barren swift]

that’s how i did my villagers

[woven drift]

god i love your island

[fringe vessel]

What should i do in this area?

[dapper ginkgo]

Didn’t really measure how much space but this is the amount I gave my villagers

[remote lichen]

Maybe a little garden?

[woven drift]

@fringe vessel cafe, hybrid flowers, heart shaped pond, garden

[barren swift]

thank you

[fringe vessel]

Hmm, maybe ill make a garden with a heart shaped pond inside

[past perch]

@dapper ginkgo looks great!

[barren swift]

put an explicit shape pond

[remote lichen]

You’re welcome! I have a toooooon of empty space on my island so I’m here for inspiration haha

[dapper ginkgo]

@past perch thank u c:

[dreamy cliff]

has anyone tried putting houses horizontally like this

will it block the view

[dense heart]

i kinda don’t like it

i feel i just need cuter stuff

[barren swift]

horizontal houses doesn’t seem nice since all doors are forward

[tiny copper]

@harsh plinth So start by getting rid of the back rivers and go from there? And I sort of have an idea of what I want; I defo want an orchard and a themed campgrounds area, the two shops next to eachother, and a movie studio themed spot

[barren swift]

i wish we could turn houses

[pliant hazel]

What flowers look the most tropical?

[remote lichen]

@dense heart maybe a pretty bench? Or arrange some stone stools in a pretty way and see if it looks more complete?

[floral ruin]

any orange!

[past perch]

@dreamy cliff I tried that for a few houses before deciding against it. it does block the view of the houses unless you add like 4-5 blocks of space

[dreamy cliff]

i see

[pliant hazel]

yeah I'm trying to go for orange, pink and yellow

[dense heart]

i do have an imperial bench!

[pliant hazel]

Maybe some red

[dreamy cliff]

thanks guys hmm i gota redesign then

[barren swift]

i was gonna put each type of flower in its 5x5 grid to get the basic hybrids. but i’m not sure if it would look nice. i wanted it to be like central park with tons of stuff around, but i don’t know how to make it flow

[remote lichen]

It looks good so far ☺️

[patent sky]

Jail island is sensory overload, I recommend a visit

[remote lichen]

Maybe look at pictures of Central Park for inspiration?

[past perch]

@dreamy cliff this might inspire you if you like that layout though https://www.reddit.com/r/ac_newhorizons/comments/fuvngx/residential_area_is_done/

[barren swift]

i saw some and i’ve been there. but there’s a limit to what can be done in this game to what the city houses

also @patent sky i hope you didn’t separate villagers’ jail cells by color

[bitter inlet]

does anyone wanna come over and give opinions/ideas for my island

[harsh plinth]

@tiny copper That's just what I did. I think in general it's best to start terraforming furthest away from where your buildings are located, that way your progress isn't halted by moving issues

[patent sky]

@barren swift it's not my island, it's @heavy summit , mine is the natural one with too many waterfalls

[barren swift]

oof my b. too lazy to tag again

[bitter inlet]

the water on the middle right looks like a face

[elfin python]

did this get renamed from map showcase?

[patent sky]

It was unintentional it's actually a 3-wide waterfall park lmao

@elfin python yes

[hidden kindle]

any ideas on fun furniture i can put into my garden?

[regal adder]

@patent sky that looks amazing

[barren swift]

@hidden kindle benches. table and chairs. garden ones

[patent sky]

Im gonna open for tours in a little bit after I fix my pond and make it stop spawning river fish

[harsh plinth]

Garden wagons are always nice too @hidden kindle

[idle dagger]

@hidden kindle maybe some beekeeper hives?

[barren swift]

this set

[woven drift]

@hidden kindle perhaps a flower sign?

[hidden kindle]

the tables and chairs will take up too much room i think. i forgot about the garden wagons!! My villager gave me one on my second day playing, i thought it was a catalog item and sold it. lmao. i haven't been able to find a recipe since 😂
Cloud- I have a little bee hive area right above this

[idle dagger]

@hidden kindle also some garden lanterns and a swinging bench

[hidden kindle]

ooh a sign could be cute too ! i just have so many pattern slots filled already

[patent sky]

The iron garden table and chairs are 1 tile each I believe

[hidden kindle]

omg so many good ideas everyone 😭 thank you

[tiny copper]

@harsh plinth Alrighty, I'll try that, thanks! And if I were to TT to move the houses, the best way would be to just advance the date?

[harsh plinth]

Yes

[elfin python]

i plan on placing my house on an area where its longer in length rather than longer than width. What decoration can I place to fill up the length? (It's long vertically)

[muted tide]

I’m torn between putting fences on pavement or not, any suggestions?

[regal adder]

pavement

[grim ginkgo]

I always prefer pavement

[regal adder]

in my humble opinion

[dense heart]

pavement

[patent sky]

@elfin python garden with a single wide path leading to house?

[dense heart]

it looks better on map too

[muted tide]

Yeah that makes sense, ty!

[patent sky]

It depends on the fence, rope fence looks weird on pavement imo

[barren swift]

anyone wanna visit and give my blank space some suggestions?

really trying to figure out a central park theme

[dense heart]

@barren swift here’s my park, i changed a good amount of stuff since this pic but it’s mostly accurate

[barren swift]

i like that concept

my brain wasn’t using fences

my brain kept thinking it would all just somehow blend and connect

same with no paths kinda

[dense heart]

your island king!! do what makes most sense to you 💛

[regal adder]

Not that spacious. Any suggestions on what I can add here to optimize what I have?

[barren swift]

BIG BRAIN JUST HAPPENED

[woven drift]

Flowers?

Pupblic benches

No

[dense heart]

did some slight clearing for my galaxy diner and i’m content

[woven drift]

omggg that's so gooood

[barren swift]

maybe i’ll connect the top left water and the west waterfalls by the museum. to make it not feel like too much land

[paper coyote]

Just sharing a double rainbow and my bistro

[barren swift]

and so i can have more cliffside fishing

fuck you and your nice island

[woven drift]

omggg that's beautifull

[barren swift]

this is why i hate reddit bc now i think my island looks like crap lmao

[indigo sierra]

Sameeee

[paper coyote]

❤️❤️

[livid smelt]

Mine is crap too, don’t worry.

[pliant hazel]

@barren swift mood

[woven drift]

I finished my kitchen

[barren swift]

oh you’ll love my basement hold on

[dense heart]

lol idk i think there’s something really cute and nice about islands that aren’t 100% full out done

[woven drift]

my island isn't even closeeee

[patent sky]

@dense heart why haven't I been to your island yet?

[dense heart]

djdkdk it’s not done yet!!! i still have to do roalds outdoor gym and beach side cafe

rip whoever tried to send more than 2 images

[barren swift]

[woven drift]

[barren swift]

[regal adder]

same my island is dog trash

[echo sparrow]

[outer pawn]

I'm sorry @barren swift but I can't unsee your meuseum logo as a really....hung....owl

[regal adder]

[harsh plinth]

Blathers is packing I guess

[woven drift]

[outer pawn]

[echo anchor]

Finally, my island doesn't look like trash.

[real vessel]

@woven drift they're hats someone made.

[woven drift]

[indigo sierra]

@real vessel really sorry to be bother but what is that item that the hat cakes are resting on?

[pliant hazel]

That's a 1000 IQ right there @real vessel

[woven drift]

ikr

big brain

[pliant hazel]

It looks like it's just cakes being presented

I can't comprehend tah they're hats omg

[woven drift]

I think it's an iron cupboard

[real vessel]

@indigo sierra They're on an Ironwood Cupboard.
@woven drift I have to find the qrs again let me look.

[woven drift]

okay

[dense heart]

i wanted a diner but didn’t wana copy paste the one i saw so i just mady it space them and killed two birds with one stone

[wanton void]

My villagers homes are kinda spread out right now do u guys think it’s worth it in the long run to move them all to be organized?????

[dense heart]

i’m def wayyy more proud of my house than island rn

[idle dagger]

here’s my garden cafe !

[dreamy cliff]

@past perch oh that looks pretty good

thanks!
it uses so many incline though lol

[woven drift]

omgg that looks amazing

[echo anchor]

Made mine into a semi-amusement park on the side

[past cloud]

is there any tips to make completely clearing out your island easier?

[woven drift]

Nope lol

[real vessel]

@past cloud turn on some netflix and zone out lol

[woven drift]

Just terraform like there's no tomorrow

[echo anchor]

It looks somewhat decent?

[past cloud]

lmaoo ok

[dense heart]

literally watch netlfix

and dig

[past cloud]

im so bad at terraforming tho i stood there for 5 minutes jsut building and destorying the same cliff lmao

[echo anchor]

UGH lol same, I had to look online for ideas

[brave epoch]

Do you guys put your villagers on flat land or level 1-2 land

[woven drift]

flat boii

[echo anchor]

I put mine on flat land for now

[primal parcel]

My mountain lake island

[brave epoch]

Nice!

[idle dagger]

terraforming is really tough

[past cloud]

how do people make their map look so nice damn

[idle dagger]

lmao right

[pliant hazel]

I wanna restart my whole island seeing that omg @primal parcel

[primal parcel]

step 1: no life 😆

[indigo sierra]

@idle dagger what are those items on the tables called?

[spiral glade]

[dense heart]

once i finish roalds place (bottom left) she will be COMPLETE

[woven drift]

oMl

[idle dagger]

wow that’s such a cool island

[pliant hazel]

Snivy is better

[past cloud]

terraforming is like real life lmao, takes forever, puts you in huge debt, and you end up getting somethin u just end up getting bored of lmao

[woven drift]

MY ISLAND SUCKS 😦

[dense heart]

@pliant hazel now-

[primal parcel]

I just want people to see that you can make some cool stuff with terraforming

[pliant hazel]

xD @dense heart

[novel pebble]

Better than Tepig or whatever his name was @pliant hazel @dense heart

[novel terrace]

Got a 10 x 16 square , want to make a cafe place but don't know what to put in, if anyone got idea i'll take it 🙂

[indigo sierra]

@idle dagger thats so cute! Did you buy them from the nooks?

[pliant hazel]

Snivy is top, hate to break it to ya @novel pebble @dense heart

[indigo gale]

I have no idea what to put in this area. (Marked area) I wanna go for a urban design for my island and 2 level stuff mixed with ground level (Nooks cranny can be moved)

[idle dagger]

@indigo sierra yup! they’re a catalog item and they’re pretty cheap iirc

[novel pebble]

@pliant hazel I agree, however I respect all opinions except for the people who think Tepig is the best. Then again, Tepig IS better than Litten xD

[real vessel]

@primal parcel I love this so much.
I wish I didn't think in squares. I can't make something like this without being like "but it's not symmetrical" lmao.

[oak jungle]

How did you guys measure your spaces? Digging holes?

[pliant hazel]

I'm completely against fire type starters, always overrated, anyways, Oshawott fits to the island because of the water lol

[dense heart]

^^^^

it makes me so happy

[echo anchor]

Oshawott! Very nice reference

[novel pebble]

@pliant hazel Torchic, Cyndaquil, and Chimchar are good imo. Rest fire types are meh. Fuck Litten. Massive disappointment

[primal ginkgo]

Idk what to do with my plaza my goal today is to work on getting it mostly done

[indigo sierra]

@idle dagger Could I buy some from you? If not its totally fine, thanks for sharing the inspo anyway!

[primal parcel]

@real vessel give in to the nature xD

[primal ginkgo]

Litten broke my heart when he evolved into a body builder

[novel pebble]

^^^^

[idle dagger]

@indigo sierra sure! I’ll have to order some from my catalog

[indigo gale]

Nobody answers my question

[indigo sierra]

Litten so cute shudders and then the fire nation was attacked

[novel pebble]

^^^^^

Also @indigo gale do you have an orchid? I personally have a bee farm and an outdoor washing (for clothing lol) area. Maybe that helps?

[dense heart]

@indigo gale

this is a place which i liked the idea of

[indigo gale]

Oooo yeah

[real vessel]

Here's my place. Mostly done but got some spots that need filling.

[indigo gale]

If you guys have anything ground/2th level builds lemme know

[woven drift]

**Why am i making another double waterfall lmfao

[dense heart]

double water falls are cute

[real vessel]

Everyone has a yard on my island.

[woven drift]

i wanna do that

But then I gotta get rid of some land

[primal parcel]

i always reccomend leaving open space

for future updates

[novel pebble]

^^^

[woven drift]

I have some

[dense heart]

only villagers i like

[queen nexus]

i gave them a front yard

[dense heart]

[queen nexus]

[dense heart]

[primal ginkgo]

[novel pebble]

A secret bbq/beach area!!! @woven drift

[woven drift]

oml Xd

ooh i like the idea

IT's like he's the king of the island

[primal parcel]

i love the snow

[woven drift]

i originally had it for genji but swapped them out... the area fit genji so much better haha

[novel pebble]

Raymonds overrated Wait, did you TT for the snow?

[woven drift]

no shit lmao

marshal is gonna have the king of the island spot ^_^ whenever i get around to it ~

yes i did, i wanted to make sure the decor looked ok in snow / all seasons @novel pebble

[patent sky]

@woven drift Are those two diff sizes of nova lights? Also how do you keep people from stealing your large star frags

Looks amazing btw

[novel pebble]

Thats...actually brilliant @woven drift

[woven drift]

those are large star fragments + nova lights, and tbh i just got lucky so far i’m sure eventually some jerk will come over and steal some lol

[spring plume]

i am the king of my island

[woven drift]

just disconnect if u find someone stealing em

[real vessel]

@primal ginkgo Able's

[patent sky]

WHY DO MY VILLAGERS ALWAYS DECIDE TO SIT EXACTLY WHERE I NEED TO TERRAFORM

[spring plume]

[spring plume]

[patent sky]

@harsh plinth yes

[woven drift]

Are nova lights 1x1?
@harsh plinth i believe so, i have them on 1x1 squares

[pliant hazel]

is it a packed Blathers? @woven drift

[harsh plinth]

Alright, ty!

[woven drift]

Wdym?

[spring plume]

why are you all not bowing down to me

[pliant hazel]

nvm

[spring plume]

i mad now

[patent sky]

Why don't villagers sit in the BENCHES and not in front of them? Nintendo AI team pls

[orchid glacier]

I wanna have my house be in the middle like its own island in an island thing. Should i do a heart or star shape?

[pliant hazel]

bows down

[woven drift]

i have to move all of my fricken villagers houses

[spring plume]

@pliant hazel yess !!! i like that ! you get a suprise

[woven drift]

I HATE MY LIFE

[pliant hazel]

yesss omg xD

[woven drift]

AND IM GOING TO HAVE TO BUILD 10 STAIRS

[edgy grove]

Me too

[woven drift]

WHAT DID I DO TO MYSELF

[pliant hazel]

@woven driftyou can't lol

[woven drift]

OH, WELL 2 THEN

[pliant hazel]

8 is the limit

Okay that went down really fast lmao

[woven drift]

yeah lol, i was gonna have stairs for every villager

[pliant hazel]

Oohhh okay

[woven drift]

but now im just gonna have 2 rows

[spring plume]

@pliant hazel tell your villagers to bow down to you

[burnt forum]

guys I need some help. I have one pathway going straight up to my museum and I realized that no matter if I move the museum to the left or right itll be uneven with the door way. How should I fix this cause it bothers me slightly?

[heavy summit]

make the pathway bigger

[vague thicket]

anyone have any ideas on how to organize fruit trees

[heavy summit]

or go up the side

[woven drift]

Welp, im going to have something to do over spring break now

[pliant hazel]

how? I'm not worth of being treated as godly as you are @spring plume

[heady umbra]

I hate when it doesn’t align right in the middle 😤

[woven drift]

Do ya'll use custom paths

[pliant hazel]

The museum is 7 blocks wide @burnt forum

make a doublestair entrance

[burnt forum]

Yeah cause I have stairs since its on the 3rd level so if I do a wider pathway it wont be even with the stairs

[woven drift]

Guys, how big is each villager house

[pliant hazel]

check pinned messages @woven drift

[woven drift]

oh k

[primal wyvern]

I think 5x5

[woven drift]

4x4

[burnt forum]

Hmm so doublestair like together or on each side?

[woven drift]

Okay, that's fine.

[primal wyvern]

And the store is 7x5

[pliant hazel]

lemme show you

I've done it like that

[burnt forum]

Oooh okay

[patent sky]

@woven drift I use them really sparingly because they don't make footfall noises and it personally freaks me out

[pale thorn]

I would love to see the outside of everyone’s museums... i am struggling with designing what i want it to look like. I know a lot of people put it on the third tier, but I have mine on the second with small waterfalls coming down on either side

[burnt forum]

Ugh I used the expensive ones like the stone ; v ; So I could mess around with terraforming

How far apart are your stairs with the museum?

[pliant hazel]

Do you mean between the stairs or between museum and stairs?

[burnt forum]

between the stairs

Since u said the museum is 7

[pliant hazel]

5 blocks then

[burnt forum]

okay so...

[real vessel]

I am the 1 in 10 who didn't put his museum on a hill @pale thorn lol

[pliant hazel]

Okay I'm gonna redesign my whole museum now xD

[burnt forum]

So u placed them on the first and last hole?

[pliant hazel]

jk jk

[desert tiger]

should i move them farther apart?

[burnt forum]

wow so gooood

[pliant hazel]

I made 5 in the middle and place the 2 stairs on the side

so one block of each fair is in front of the museum

[patent sky]

@pale thorn

[dreamy fox]

I need... THE EGYPT THING

[burnt forum]

I thought your legs were something else

[pale thorn]

@real vessel I like it! I think i like the second tier, because like you did, you can put stuff up above and i looks nice. My original idea was to put a stargazing area on the tier above and right behind the museum. i guess I’m hesitant because the little terraforming I’ve done so far has left me unhappy with my choices

[burnt forum]

but hmm okay okay

[patent sky]

LMAO sorry I'm curled up and didn't wanna move

Mine is also on first story, my entire town is lowkey and natural so I didn't want to do a grand entrance

[burnt forum]

Youre good I was just like is that a booty then I was like nah legs and I really like yours. I tried to kinda do a bit grand on the third story but have simple design

[pale thorn]

@patent sky your entire map looks really well designed!

[woven drift]

guys i wanna change so much but no idea how to arrange my villager houses🥺

[patent sky]

Yeah I really like my scalloped path, I think it fits into the rest of the atmosphere well without looking out of place

@pale thorn ty! I might open for tours after audie gets her butt off the last square of this pond I need to finish

[burnt forum]

Im now debating if I destroy my stairs and slowly make money for them again now or teraform a lot and buy more >:I This is hard when youre broke

[sand yarrow]

is there any way to get custom paths to make the clack clack sound

[real vessel]

custom paths have no sound. it's why i don't use them lol

[idle dagger]

haven’t made the last incline yet bc I need money lol

[pale thorn]

@idle dagger love the two bridges facing each other!

[woven drift]

@real vessel same!!

[patent sky]

I heard if the paths are transparent they'll make sound if overlaid on a game path but idk

[modern sierra]

Hi all, I'm very very bad at designing things. Can anyone suggest where I could start with this? I'm currently paralysed by choice.

[brazen horizon]

is there anyway i could see where some of you guys placed your shops? need inspiration ''

[real vessel]

they don't, sadly. @patent sky

[idle dagger]

@pale thorn thank you!! I did that because I wanted to take up as little space as possible on the first tier

[woven drift]

i need inspiration for a residential area 🥺

[severe parcel]

Any entrance ideas when you’re plaza is like RIGHT by the airport? Idk what to put there and it’s honestly stressing me out lol

[burnt forum]

thats how I did mine

[sand yarrow]

same!!! @severe parcel

[patent sky]

@modern sierra put your houses in the hills but that's just me that personally hates neighborhoods lol

[idle dagger]

same @severe parcel my airport is one tile off from being centered with my plaza and they’re both too close to each other to hide it

[brazen horizon]

i want to finally start decorating, unsure where to start. any suggestions?

[modern sierra]

@severe parcel I'm the same! Look at the screenshot I just posted, I'm considering restarting tbh

[idle dagger]

i still don’t know what to do about it hhhh

[pale thorn]

I screwed up my residential area and want to redo the whole thing, so don’t ask me about that part lol

@idle dagger I saw someone do a cool thing with a dock that opened to the left which was the main path to town hall

[modern sierra]

my airport is 6 squares from the Plaza

[idle dagger]

@patent sky oh that’s sounds interesting! do you know where I can find a video or picture of this by any chance?

[woven drift]

I had such a nice map but now destroyed it,, on the right i want the residential area to be aaaand my shops are gonna go on top (from the museum until the place where the camping place still is) aaand wanna make the river look more natural again

[sand yarrow]

i have literally been trying to figure out what entrance to do all day bc of how close my airport and plaza are but at least other ppl know the struggle lol

[pale thorn]

I have the two rivers that empty into the bottom if the map and regret my choice of it every day

[primal shoal]

Hi can anyone who has their house on a cliff share a pic? Need some inspiration

[main plume]

What have y’all done with your secret beach?

[modern sierra]

@sand yarrow I hate my entrance, I hate it so much

6 squares is all I have to work with

[sand yarrow]

i am so sorry thats a couple less than mine and im dying so

its sososo hard

[severe parcel]

Stupid airport is slightly off and I have a lot of empty spaces I don’t know what to do with. I need to move my house too since there isn’t enough room to put trees around the moat like I thought

[burnt forum]

Oooh I like that

I made ideas like a small cafe area near my shops

[idle dagger]

the struggle is real

[burnt forum]

Ive seen people do arcades

[heavy summit]

class has started

[hidden kindle]

going to do one small tour if anyone wants to stop by my mountain island! lots of WIP areas but maybe you will get inspired for your island 🙂 also very open to feedback on some of my weird/blank areas haha

[patent sky]

@idle dagger it might be from Raj's island idk why I can't tag him rn

[idle dagger]

@heavy summit lmao if you wanna catalog a homework set for the desks I can give you one

@patent sky ah okay

[heavy summit]

I accidentally trapped Ankha once

[severe parcel]

I was making a huge cliff area and Diana was walking around. I was about to trap her bc it was so annoying lol

[arctic dock]

took a look at my actual map and realized... different path patterns don’t show as different patterns :/ it looks awful from the map view

[heavy summit]

yep lol

[hidden kindle]

@severe parcel I have a cliff shop area if you want to stop by and see how it impacts the area behind it

[fierce mulch]

Does someone know anything i can put in this area? (No cafe pls xd)

[pliant hazel]

a cafe

[next cypress]

I just ignore the map view tbh, a lot of things that look good ingame look bad on the map and vice-versa

[pliant hazel]

xD

[still junco]

a cafe

[heavy summit]

anyone wanna visit my island while i go afk and play with my cat, rosie is crafting small cardboard boxes diy, while my store is selling cardboard boxes

[burnt forum]

[fierce mulch]

[severe parcel]

@hidden kindle yes! I really want to put it in a cliff but everything gets in the way of each other aaaa

[burnt forum]

[primal shoal]

Looking for cliff house ideas plsss

[idle dagger]

does anyone have any birthday party layout ideas? my friend’s birthday is coming up and we can’t celebrate it in person, so I wanna make a little area on my island for her instead

[pliant hazel]

I've thought about a personalized garden yk?

[arctic dock]

ideas? (i already have 2 breeding gardens and 1 normal garden, a pool area, cafe area, playground and small hangout areas ;-; )

[fierce mulch]

yeah i dont have a garden thats actually a nice idea

[remote lichen]

Make a shrine

[still junco]

I built a shopping district with little stalls to take up lots of empty room

[remote lichen]

To... something

[idle dagger]

@arctic dock maybe make a little stall selling fruit?

[arctic dock]

i wanted to place a graveyard somewhere but not sure where.. this seems a little too close to villager houses to have a graveyard 😂

i do have a shopping area already sadly

[severe parcel]

I want to do that too!

[idle dagger]

ah I see

maybe a duck pond or just a pond in general?

[arctic dock]

should i move marshals house to the empty section and place the graveyard here?

[severe parcel]

This channel is so helpful omg

[arctic dock]

this is right by my orchard ^^

[pliant hazel]

Finally I know what to do around Cocos and Lucky's houses lol @arctic dock

[idle dagger]

I think that’s a good idea @arctic dock

[modest mural]

finally finished the robot hero set of 8 yesterday

[hidden kindle]

@modest mural how do you display them? they take up so much room haha

[modest mural]

i have a huge area next to my entrance

[arctic dock]

@pliant hazel i gave my dreamie (wart jr) an entire little hangout 😂 he’s always sitting out here reading and looking into the river

[woven drift]

how wide is an incline

[idle dagger]

that’s so gorgeous

an incline is 2 wide and 4 long

it will take up one tile on the upper tier I believe

[woven drift]

kk ty

[elfin python]

Behind my house that opened fence area is an incline leading up, should I center my house like this or something else? Give me opinions please!

[pliant hazel]

Oh gosh that's cute @arctic dock

[modest mural]

@elfin python i have a similar set up for my house and i centered it

[pliant hazel]

I've wanted to do a cafe for my snooty ones like Astrid and Diana, and a playground for walker and Beau

[modest mural]

and then put stone pathing everywhere inside the fence to create a plaza

[still junco]

I like centering things so it all stays symmetrical

[pliant hazel]

And ofc a gym for Pierce

[elfin python]

Ohh okay ty!

[hidden kindle]

@arctic dock i love that!! ive been thinking about getting wart jr lol, hes so weird

@modest mural thats awesome

[arctic dock]

Behind my house that opened fence area is an incline leading up, should I center my house like this or something else? Give me opinions please!
@elfin python if it was me i’d put the house in the corner of the fencing and you could then give yourself a huge yard. flowers, a pond, hangout spot, maybe stepping stones leading up to your door, whatever you’d like

[modest mural]

both styles look great imo

[elfin python]

Okay ty!

[patent sky]

@primal shoal my entire island is basically cliff houses

[severe parcel]

Does anyone have pics of a little market place they made with the stalls? I’m trying to do something like that but I don’t really have any ideas

i hate how u can't split 10 other than 2 and 5

[humble anchor]

thats so soft

[pliant hazel]

Is Apollo cool? I've been thinking of bringing him to my island @patent sky

Usually I dont like Cranky ones

[still junco]

Apollo bullied two of my villagers

[patent sky]

@pliant hazel I cannot live without Apollo to the point where I bought his $40 amiibo card

[woven drift]

Wtf

just buy a fake one for like 2 dollars

[dapper ginkgo]

two types of ppl ^

[woven drift]

it works the same, smh

[pliant hazel]

xD

I'll get him then, I like how eagles look

[patent sky]

@severe parcel

@woven drift I have both types of card (not two apollo tho) but he's a good childhood memory for me so I wanted the real one. Also it shipped faster

[woven drift]

Oh, welp im just saying, don't waste a lot of fourty dollars

[next egret]

Working on a casino. It looks like too empty to me right now but idk what to add, suggestions greatly appreciated

[woven drift]

Maybe add more machines

[patent sky]

I love gambling in animal crossing

[severe parcel]

Thank you! @patent sky

[still junco]

There are pool tables you could use to take up room

[next egret]

Ooh good idea

I didn’t know those were a thing

[still junco]

They added a ton of stuff to this game

[tulip garnet]

I need alot of ideas for my empty island whoever helps me alot i am willing to pay bells for it

[grizzled hinge]

Anybody have some epic ideas for the able sisters shop?

[pliant hazel]

a cafe

xD

[grizzled hinge]

Immediate banger ty luv

[past cloud]

oo wait can u have hills in front of the plaza?

[patent sky]

Is there like a metal table in the game that matches the open frame kitchen?

[past cloud]

or does that mess stuff up

[patent sky]

Like a surgical table type thing

[woven drift]

Yah you can @past cloud

[pliant hazel]

Maybe try to expand the shop to the outside? @grizzled hinge

[modest mural]

@next egret i would add some fences that add to the aesthetic

[pliant hazel]

Like putting some clothes outside and making it look like it's a part of the shop

[modest mural]

and maybe a custom design floor that looks like casino carpeting

[woven drift]

man i wish we could have the limit of 10 stairs

like why did they make it 8

[jade dirge]

Can I visit one of you guys island? 😂 cuz people posting here are people with good islands and I want to see some pretty stuff

[grizzled hinge]

Oooo I like that too @pliant hazel ur a beast

[woven drift]

WHAT IF SOMEONE WANTED TO BUILD STAIRS TO EVERY VILLAGERS HOUSE HMM?

[pliant hazel]

Thanks haha

[woven drift]

HMMM NINTENDO? HMMM?

Okay, that's just my little rant, hope you enjoyed lmfao, or not

[pliant hazel]

I mean you can clump some of them together

[woven drift]

Yeah

[pliant hazel]

Like if you have two jocks, you canbuild one gym

[woven drift]

nO

[idle dagger]

yeah I kinda wish there were 10 inclines instead of 8 because I really love messing with cliffs

[jade dirge]

Please

[woven drift]

I want everyone to have their ownn little backyard

[jade dirge]

😭

[pliant hazel]

Well that sucks then

[woven drift]

ikr

Ugh im just gonna have to put a stair in the middle

of each row

And each villagers house is like 10x5

(including backyard)

[pliant hazel]

Oh damn okay

[woven drift]

mHMM

[novel pebble]

@next egret Sorry I'm late to the party, BUT the items you get from the Pocket Camp app are fantastic for the casino area you're creating

[brisk obsidian]

Starbucks opened up their first location on my island

[woven drift]

omg that's adorablee

[novel pebble]

Caribou is better. That's so cool!!!

[elfin python]

Do you guys think I could fit all the villagers houses in the area I rectangled or would it probably be too squished?

[woven drift]

IF you did 2 rows probs

[modest mural]

that would probably be too squished

[woven drift]

but i think it'd be two squished if only 1

[pliant hazel]

Too squished probably

[wanton void]

Is it worth it in the long run moving all of the villagers houses close by each other because i might do it. Just curious if it’s worth the wait

[modest mural]

just after getting terraforming

and now

[elfin python]

Hmm okay I’m not sure what to put in that area and I actually don’t think I want my house there.

[woven drift]

that's incredible

IT looks nothing alike

[pliant hazel]

Oh damn

[modest mural]

[severe parcel]

I’m glad I’m not the only one with straight rivers

@modest kernel mood

[modest mural]

you just gotta commit lol

[woven drift]

lmao, i try not to look at others, i want mine to be unique but im failing so yah

[prime tusk]

I think what’s good about the game is your island will transform as you think of changes/get new items/updates

[modest kernel]

I feel amazing knowing I’m not the only one struggling so hard

[woven drift]

im not struggling pfft, im failing, get on my level

[pliant hazel]

i love how we all are having the same struggles

[modest kernel]

AHAHAH mooood

[woven drift]

animal crossing is a relaxing game

[pliant hazel]

[severe parcel]

BASICALLY

[modest kernel]

animal crossing is the lego of video games

[woven drift]

tru dat

[severe parcel]

I’m just happy I have enough money to move everything

[modest kernel]

Oh my god don’t even get me started on the hatred you feel when you don’t catch a fish

[woven drift]

Omg this is so cute

[woven drift]

Excuse me

ik the amount of times i had to completely redo a section bc it was one or two tiles off is ridiculous

[still junco]

That’s amazing

[woven drift]

one question: HOW

[still junco]

Just gonna yoink some of your ideas there

[pliant hazel]

why can't we have a dynamite tool that destroys a big area like in minecraft

[severe parcel]

Lol same

[woven drift]

@heady sable ur hacking

IKR

[leaden atlas]

Does anyone know how to build the inclines that look like they are built into the cliff as opposed to jutting out? Saw some tutorials awhile back but now can't find them.

[charred sand]

Anyone have a neighborhood setup they can send me a pic of? Can’t figure out how to start mine out or the dimensions of each neighbors fenced in land

[next egret]

@modest mural it’s kinda hard to see but I have rope fences. Do you think a different kind would be better?

[tulip mauve]

Just a lil som som

[modest kernel]

Omg i Love the villagers idea

[heady sable]

@woven drift I didn’t 😭

[still junco]

I want a residential area like that

[woven drift]

Hey BFFS, anyone got a nice natural layout map :)?

@heady sable i don't believe u

[modest mural]

@next egret yeah i think a solid wall instead of a fence would make the casino seem a lot more enclosed

like the zen walls look really good but im not sure if it fits w the rest of your island

[pliant hazel]

You could use simple panels

[next egret]

I was thinking about the panels

[severe parcel]

I wish I had a waters mouth on the side instead of both being at the bottom

[next egret]

hmmmm

[woven drift]

hmm, who's tutu's best friend

OMG IT'S COOKIE

[heady sable]

Here’s my layout so far, spot the turtle 😝

[woven drift]

omg

so...many...paths

Dang u have the perf villager line up

heheehhee, wait till you see mine

I miss coco :(

[snow hornet]

okay so i have a question and i need yalls opinions

[pliant hazel]

@modest muralfacts

[woven drift]

Yah?

[still junco]

I’m going to say cats are the best only cause of Snake and Genji

[wooden patrol]

Would anybody be willing to come to my island to help me figure out wth to do with it lmaoo

[woven drift]

DOOD @heady sable THAT'S ILLEGAL STOP THAT

[wild sigil]

When you start terraforming and can’t stop 😩 lol

[heady sable]

[woven drift]

oh my good lord

[pliant hazel]

@heady sable THAT WAS YOURS? So you're really hacking I see

[severe parcel]

Ommmgggg @heady sable

[woven drift]

I think thats a bit too much buddy

[heady sable]

I am not hacking omg I got inspired by youtuber hahaha

[snow hornet]

i’m making an area like with the teacup ride and some games and i used a pastel brick path (from custom designs) should i use a stone bridge or zen bridge to go across the water

[compact mist]

How are people decorating their plazas, like with fences or?

[severe parcel]

I’d say zen

[compact mist]

I need inspiration where do you find it 😭

[severe parcel]

here

[modest mural]

i would also say zen

[snow hornet]

stone bridges really only look good w stone paths

LF a 4-5 star island to visit! Will tip bells😊

[woven drift]

damn what r u a youtube channel?

[modest mural]

my island dropped to a 2 star after i took down a ton of trees and flowers for terraforming

[still junco]

Lmao

[pliant hazel]

@modest mural saaaame omg

[woven drift]

my island's a "five star" but it's not. idk how it is

maybe i just bombed it with flowers

[modest mural]

the criteria is really weird

like i feel like having all 8 robot heroes would count for something

[snow hornet]

my island is 4 stars

i fee like it should be 5 by now tho

[compact mist]

@primal shoal my entire island is basically cliff houses
@patent sky ahhh I love this layout!!

[hard kettle]

Ikr? I feel like I'll never get 5

[woven drift]

guy can you show me how you made the area around ur shops?🥺

[still junco]

I added more fencing and it boosted my rating

[woven drift]

okya so what was really weird was, i had a four star, then i time traveled to december and it just became a five star? like whatt????

[wooden patrol]

My island is 4 stars and I don’t even know what to do now

[modest mural]

that's weird you would think it would drop from weeds growing @woven drift

[woven drift]

Yeah ikr

[orchid pebble]

Ohhh I was gna do that but worried how itd look. Now that Ik it can work, I shall be making myself a cute lil salon @heady sable ! Thank you for sharing ^.^

[wooden patrol]

If I sent a picture of my map do you think you guys could try to give me ideas of what to do with the empty space?

[woven drift]

sure

[hard kettle]

Sure!

[woven drift]

you can count on usss👍

[wooden patrol]

The red spaces are basically useless to me rn lmaooo

[woven drift]

why the hecc do i sound so cheesy

[indigo gale]

I’m so out of ideas of what to do to my island...

[woven drift]

You could make a cafe, gym, fishing area, arcade, flower breeding garden

[indigo gale]

I’ve given up on doing anything to my island

[wooden patrol]

I have a breeding area and I’m considering doing a diner and gym

[barren swift]

what i did with the cliff top so far

[brazen horizon]

do a more natural chaotic garden

[woven drift]

I feel like that should fill up a pretty big chunk

[wooden patrol]

But I feel like the fences look really stupid around everything

[woven drift]

Nah

[hard kettle]

Outdoor arcade, flower garden, tiki bar, zen garden, outdoor gym

[indigo gale]

Does anyone have a 5 star island I can bust for inspiration?

[wooden patrol]

But if I don’t have them Isabelle tells me to use more lmao

[barren swift]

measuring diagonal rivers sucks

[woven drift]

oh here we go, another youtube channel (lmao jkjk)

[heady sable]

look at my before hahaha 😭

[woven drift]

damn, and mine looks the exact same

how wonderful

[idle dagger]

omg danielle thank you for the idea

[median charm]

My island is pretty basic, I haven't moved or demolished anything since I started. I did some light waterscaping to make a waterfall pond in B5-6 but other than that, pretty much nothing but paths. I wanna maintain a natural feel to my island (and keep it mostly authentic to the original cliffs/rivers layout) but I have no ideas of how to do that… can anyone help?

[heady sable]

Basically I just look at YouTube and get inspired to do almost the same but of course adding some other cata 🙂

[modest mural]

@median charm i actually like the paths a lot and would probably just plant a ton of evergreen trees along the paths

[woven drift]

hmm i should do that

[pliant hazel]

@heady sable I'm trying to do that but my island is still awful

[modest mural]

to create like a big forest vibe ya know

[polar tiger]

Any 4-5 star island I can visit for some inspiration?

[woven drift]

ahaha samee

@polar tiger whats ur youtube channel called? XD

can u please show ur shops guys?🥺🥺🥺 like what u pit around them and where u put them

[idle dagger]

@median charm you can try making little areas throughout your island that you'd find in a heavily wooded location like a wishing well spot or a picnic area

[woven drift]

oH sHiT

i don't think im gonna have enough space

[woven snow]

Looking for path change suggestions! Key points are to keep it pink/pink undertone

[woven drift]

OH NO.

[paper coyote]

@median charm I’m doing a similar style! Sticking to mostly natural landscapes and very minimal terraforming.

[idle dagger]

i really like the natural style but also the urban chic style so im chopping my island in half to make things work

have no idea how its gonna turn out

[heady sable]

@pliant hazel u need alot of time I spend like almost 5-6 days doing this

[still junco]

I’m gonna make the main part of my island where resident services is more urban and then go natural on the outer parts

[idle dagger]

i wish there were more shop buildings in the game

[pliant hazel]

I don't even have time to start decorating yet I'm still at the cliffs etc aaaaaahhh

[still junco]

You can make accounts on your switch then turn those account houses into little restaurants

[pliant hazel]

i need a pizza

and a hamburger

[idle dagger]

oh good idea @still junco thank you!

@pliant hazel everyone has their own pace!! dont get discouraged

[primal shoal]

Okay anyone have ideas for sporatic stump placement around the island? I want to place some here and there for bug spawns

[woven drift]

how have i spent 170+ in animal crossing and my island looks worse than someone who has spent like 10 hours

[pliant hazel]

im not discouraged, im just hungry

[modest mural]

hahaha

[pliant hazel]

but thanks haha

[idle dagger]

if you have the wild log bench diy recipe you can put it next to a stump to make it look like a fallen log @primal shoal

[still junco]

A picnic area around the stumps would look pretty and serve as bug spawns still

[woven drift]

DOOD HOW DO U COME UP WITH THESE IDEAS

[pliant hazel]

boi I'm at 310+ hours

[woven drift]

skskskkks what

[modest mural]

im at about 200 i think

[primal shoal]

@idle dagger ooooo I don’t but that’s a really good idea so I shall find recipe lol

[idle dagger]

lol i got the idea from reddit im not that original

[woven drift]

oh lol but still

[scenic blaze]

@primal shoal I’m putting log tables by mine to make a really natural picnic area

[indigo gale]

I’m about to quit animal crossing! I have no inspiration for my island or a vision of it. I constantly am changing my view on it and I can’t think of anything

[primal shoal]

@still junco that’s good too thanks guys!!

[woven drift]

@indigo gale jsut go with the flow, don't think too much abt it

[pliant hazel]

[idle dagger]

[primal shoal]

[indigo gale]

[indigo gale]

[tulip cliff]

[vast crystal]

[still junco]

Imperial is the red fence right?

[woven drift]

tysm this is amazing! @dapper ginkgo

[primal shoal]

Coming on here helped me a lot to find inspiration & ideas I liked

[indigo gale]

But I don’t know what to have as a entrance

[hard kettle]

Idk what I'm going to do with this top left area. Bottom left is an orchard and middle left is a robata restaurant.

[primal shoal]

@wooden patrol I like the corral fence

[hard kettle]

Zen fencing and bamboo lattice

[pulsar lotus]

Is it okay if i make a youtube video of my layout?

[wooden patrol]

I’ve been using lattice fences but I’m starting to feel like it looks dumb lol

[woven drift]

turn it into an evil witch meeting area

[indigo gale]

Anyone got pictures of airport entrances?

[idle dagger]

@hard kettle you could make a farm with dirt paths and a silo maybe?

[still junco]

Combining fencing adds depth to most builds

[primal shoal]

I just have a path leading to main plaza with bamboo trees lining it

[hard kettle]

@idle dagger how would I make a farm?

[woven drift]

i think i just piss everyone off that comes to my island to trade cause i make them jump like 4 times lmfao

[idle dagger]

or a magical looking place with worn out stones and an old well if thats what youre into

@hard kettle what i did was i made a rectangle of dirt path and then i put turnips on it, then put a silo next to it, but im probably gonna change the dirt path and switch it to this farmland design i found online

its still very wip rn lol

[still junco]

[still junco]

I’m reseting my island in search of snake

[idle dagger]

@woven drift what do you need help with?

[woven drift]

damn

[hard kettle]

@royal dock post it 😅👍🏻🎉

[woven drift]

@hard kettle @idle dagger I'm struggling heavily with how to use my map properly. I really want this design I'm going to post, and I want help adapting it to my island

[heady sable]

@primal ginkgo I did this

[woven drift]

super gorgeous, but hard. i know the waterfalls cant be like that

oml did u make that?

And yes waterfalls can be like that

deja-vu on reddit

[idle dagger]

thats a really cool graphic

[woven drift]

not me, it's deja vu haha

but i'd really like someone to help me adapt it.

I'd be totally willing to pay NMT or bells for help as well

[golden igloo]

That would be fun if someone else can go on your island and help terraform, but unfortunately can't

[royal dock]

i need to figure out my villager area if anyone knows how to help with that 😅

[idle dagger]

well since you dont have a double south outlet you'll have to rearrange the waterfalls a bit

but i think its still doable!

[woven drift]

@idle dagger any help would be great for making it on happy island designer

Gimme neighborhood names everyone, my island name is Sakura Bay

[hard kettle]

You can't move a river mouth to make the 2nd opening on the bottom middle but its doavle6
