but it depends on your town theme of course, if you have like an urban city theme then overgrown paths wouldn’t really work
i wanna do that now but i already arranged my villager houses
I try too hard to make thing symmetrical, I gotta just let go.
mine has roads n such so i dunno
i want it to be cozy, cottage like haha that's what im trying to do :)
Opinions on my layout so far
Finished my entrance revamp today
I’m satisfied with my island layout. I don’t have “room” to spread them out more
@thin mirage wtf that's so cute
@west marsh I love the Kh reference.
I'm losing my mind over how cute this is
Also I didn't know log chair whatever can have pillows
omg i would literally pay you to design my island to look like that lmaoo
Me either!!! Until I went in to customise it and saw it has a goddamn customisable pillow option
Looks amazing
It’s the same for the log sofa and chairs! They all have pillow options🥺
corner of my town hall decorated
has anyone developed a website yet that lets you simulate how something looks in-game before you commit to terraforming and buying all the inclines/bridges for it lmaoo
Yeah I saw something about that recently
Matching one I have up on a cliff, has the little pillows ^
Brb swapping all furniture with log
Rattan > Ironwood for me, dont hate me pls
your island is so cute im literally crying
My diner and outdoor are of my house
my wicker man reference next to the grave yard
tom nooks and able in a small wooded area
My island is chaotic cute. There’s flowers and trees just EVERYWHERE. With these little chill out areas nestled in there... I had to signpost everything because people get lost😭
"My island isn't horror"
omg I’ve been looking for a blood splatter qr code to put next to my trash bags as well
i-

working on my cemetery, right now there’s an oven in the back of the cemetery with trash bags next to it
If you don’t pay Nook, ya get shook
see if u can spot something wrong with the pick of my town hall lol
is that blood and bones behind the tree in your town hall pic lol?
Did you mean

Survival of the fittest
Wait they can go in sand?
Yes
Not beach sand. Tile sand
My photo sent so slow fk
anyone else feel like they suck at terraforming
Yes that’s why I did almost none
paging doctor tortol
yo @heavy summit did you make the blood qr codes yourself?
I basically stole @patent sky layout
Has anyone completely flattened their island? I was curious how it would look/feel.
@fiery geyser i used a picture to qr code converter and used real images of blood splatter
Nani?
simply genius
I don't care I just wanna see :0
I saw your layout and it looked clean so I'm doing something similar ish
mmm organic blood splatter
just hit the convert button and upload any pic
Its not done yet, my island is covered in fences atm LMAO
I decide to manipulate the rock spawns before i commited to the redo
The most I did to my island was get rid of a river that kinda cut through the only large space I had
Props to everyone who manipulates rock spawn, I just pray
How does it feel knowing you have someones actual blood splatter as a pattern on your island?
i dont manipulate my rock spawn but gee everything is so decorated that it spawns in my flower garden

Omg
Omg I wish
Zen garden inc
Imagine accidentally breaking one

I’m working on a “dig site” behind my museum
@obsidian elbow its png specific, so its probably faked
I tried to do it
And they get popping up in ever worse places
Like right where I was gonna build and stuff
ah, ok.
So I gave up
I just realized you you display patterns in your house omg...
looks more cutesy/natural to me
Pictures of your island are like "Where's Waldo" but Waldo is actually blood.
wait is there blood i’m not seeing in those pics
I recommend a Vinh tour always
cause my island isnt horror, its zen
no its art
Woah
if u display it in a museum
abstract art
All in the name of convenience
i took art history in college, i know
Lets hope this is the last reset
Can I get tips on how to improve my map?
does anyone have a pink picnic planet qr
im going to hate this in a week. but WIP\
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/681277827244621855/701967495267090482/unknown.png
which one looks better?
ledster is the grey on the left grey path? i really like yours how it is
first one
Thanks to the advice from people here I finally started to get the hang of decorating.
Apple is in my campsite!!!
can anyone else give input on my question?
i said first one
Need some spooky inspiration
i agree w first one
ic
It’s so far from being done but it’s come so far

fits w trees better
the 2nd one fence ur using is too high like ur trying to make a highway in the middle of the woods
thx for the answers, i'm kinda not vibing with the country fence walls everywhere but ehh, ill work with it
@chrome slate the multiple mini islands r really cool 0:
Thank you waterscaping is so janky and soul breaking I needed to finally share a wip here
whats the dimension of a villager house?
its in pinned !
anyone have natural looking streams they can show me? :o
if anyone wants to visit my 5 star island its 3vc8j ima mostly be afk and playing with my cat. shops closed
we love spending over a week on terraforming your island, buying bridges/inclines and then realizing you want to do something completely different so you start tearing everything down 🤪
thanks but i mean in game lol
For real though, sometimes I google stuff like that for inspiration :3
I'm not the best at natural looking streams/rivers, so it helps.
oo
@lilac glade is that a DR2 reference?
Or is Jabberwock just a random name and I’m stupid
Can anyone show me what they have near their museum? I’m looking for inspiration!
lol wait if thats a dr2 reference thats actually such a good idea
for all the natural islands out there, here's a little mini guide on what weeds grow into what 😄
I was GOING to try that, but I decided against it
Couldn’t really figure out how I could make it similar tbh. I’m sure someone can but it’s not me hahaha
Cursed images
lmaoo
There are different species of weeds!? My god my whole island is gonna be weeds.
i think if you pick them up and plant them again it picks a random one
The weeds change with the season
I learned that the hard way, trying to reset my island for weeds..
ooh i was wondering why i couldnt find the last 2 on my island
@balmy pond heres my museum! its more on the natural side
@balmy pond heres my museum! its more on the natural side
@vast crystal i like the telescope!
oh I like it though! It’s cute!
thanks!! im kinda making it an observatory
Can I get some feedback on how to improve my planned island?
I’m designing my island and I thought this looked nice for the neighborhood area. What do you think?
This is what I got... imma straighten the River going down and do something on the back with maybe a garden or forest or chill spot
I appreciate it!

@vale nymph can you move rocks ? How?
Fill every available spot with cliff tool or fences. 1 fence or single cliff blocks every cell around it
You just break rocks and reset until you get them all together. A caveat us that only three rocks can occupy a grid so you have to build inbetween grid borders if you nwant all six together
And they occupy a 3x3 area
It is very, very tedious
I AM GOING AFK FOR ABIT AND LOOKING FOR TOURISTS CODE:5QVHS YOU MAY SHOP WALK AROUND SEE MY HOUSE BUT PLZ RESPECT MY FLOWERS AND DISPLAYS IS ALL I ASK TY
island layout
Should I flatten my island and start from there? Or would that cause me trouble?
@hexed sundial wow
Depends on what your end goal is
Was about to say the same ^
for me it was easier to work with what I had
Oh okay.
For me I only tweaked my layout rather than completely redoing it
it helped me to take out my rivers first and focus on land
then i redesigned rivers around my buildings and layouy
I might do that
gonna put a big lake here, how should I move those houses
flattening the land is probably beneficial if u want to completely remodel ur whole island
I also only tweaked my layout, removed any bits that didn’t line up with my plan etc
Also think about whether you want a "designed" looked or a more natural look
I’m not the type who can completely plan out everything from the beginning
I need to freehand stuff when I'm planning so I took a picture of my town and drew over it so I'd know the proportions. Very excited to get to work on it now
Thank you for the advice
Tbh Raymond is so overrated
I agree.
@hexed sundial at the moment yeah lol
my island layout is trash oof pepehands
wait i don't understand why is my island trash @livid smelt
Friend made this for me. I just want something outdoorsy so I think it's good. What do ya'll think?
@hexed sundial no not yours! I thought oh we’re asking about mine. Sorry
It looks really good.
in winter it's looks super nice
I bet bro.
Anyone willing to come to my island and tell me what things i can add/change can give some bells
@warped cairn it is :)
hi!! anyone have any ideas on how to make a hiking trail look more natural besides dark paths, cedar trees and weeds? I have signs and destination posts, a well, benches etc but it doesn’t have the natural look I’m going for ):
do you have stumps and log benches
welp i went crazy and did this
near the campsite yeah
the only thing i kept was my fruit grove
looks nice @pearl topaz
add those log benches like the tree was cut down
also add those log stakes and recolor them
i literally don't know what to do with my island
We got em
Entrance to my town any suggestions?
Looking for some inspiration for a very hilly island. Anyone have any pictures I could see?
Horizontal or vertical? I feel like horizontal would be a pain, but I don’t know.
What does everyone have in front of their town square?
I have a lot of flowers
I feel like my townhall is awkwardly placed
I put the pocket camp flags with flowers and lil gardens on each side 🙂
Mine is too, don’t worry. Somehow you will figure out how to make it work.
Every part of my island has something planned out except for the area in front and to the right of my square
What software/template do you use to make a plan for island layouts
Happy Island Designer
good for u i have afew like done stops and still a big blank one that naws at my soul
This is my town square for reference
Took some updated photos of my town entrance, please dont dm for the path codes ♡
This is my path leading up to town square
how are you guys dealing with not having a town hall that lines up w the airport? need inspo :(
What do you use to plan the island layout on
im so sry mine does line up
Super Pretty! Also hope this isn’t a weird request but I’m a 5 star island looking to tour other 5 star islands? We can exchange tours? I just rly like island hopping >_< @hollow dew for me, I made a path going right and then up. Made a fence in between. It was too close and only just a bit off center it super annoyed me
@hollow dew my island looks like this,, lowkey just gotta deal tbh
so from the looks of it i got the shortest end of the stick possible wow
@hollow dew I built a “road” surrounding it, I think entrances are cool and all but it just doesn’t work for my layout so instead visitors will end up on a shopping street for me haha
my airport is so far off of the town hall
Actually isn’t that better? There’s room to make it look better
It’s worse if it’s close
Lmao yeah
true, but i would need to make a path right then up
i'll just deal with it lol
at least the town hall is centered :)
It would balance with the shops on the left
If u made a path straight up, residents on rigght and shops on left
oh i plan on remodeling the whole island, notice how it looks like a starter island
@strong scaffold same I have no room whatsoever to make it look good :[
Anyone with mostly finished islands wanna exchange tours 🥺
CureiLand is one of my favorite islands so far. The island owner is Mattsu. He's going for a modern Asian resort feel. I love that it's super well-organized and pleasing to the eyes~
More island tours to follow! Please consider subscribing to get updated.
bruhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Everything is covered in a path
imagine the minimap
It’s all brown
I need help, tell me where is the best to place the houses
Everything’s still in progress but that’s what o did with mine really far off @hollow dew
can someone give me some advice? I’m trying to go for a city like town but I feel like somethings missing. Here’s my map and what like most intersections look like around the houses
what is the best way to plan out a river?
The roads feel way too narrow to me. At that size I'd probably forgo the vehicle road look.
hmm okay so make the road bigger or leave it! if I were to leave the vehicle road what would you suggest?
Add some bikes or scooters or road signs, cones, bus stop sign via pattern, maybe drink machines
Made a free area for visitors!
Welcome to the Island of Ohana
sooooo cute🥺
Thank you! 400+ hours
@scenic veldt I’d say those roads need to be wider to look like vehicle roads. Maybe you could add some crossings? I’d say try adding in some signs, benches, drinks machines, utility poles, could try and catalog some of the outside fan/generator type things for decor. Maybe some brick fencing?
idk if this will send of not but i think i finished the forest entrance! (:
if you have any tips let me know
trying to plan out my island layout and need advice! i have no idea what to do with rivers and ponds ;w;
its a big wip obviously but yea..
@stark oyster make a canyon in that area between cliff and town hall?
i think you should keep your museum separate from the shops
@thin mirage oooh thank you! I’m trying to make them wider rn and they look a lot better although I need to see how it goes w/ space!! I have a lot of those things too I just wasn’t sure where to put them! I don’t have brick fencing yet but if it’s in the terminal today I’ll give it a go and update!
@wild cave If you have a 5 star island consider placing weeds around to make it feel more "Wild" and lush
smart! i did feel like it was missing something
i used to have a 5star island but now its 4 stars (‘:
@stark oyster I’d put the shops together and Museum a little more spread out from them :3 then you can have more space around the museum for decor and stuff too
As long as you already have the golden watering can 😄
I know I’m never getting the watering can purely bc I have a pretty foresty/flower filled island and I don’t want to change that 
how do you get the watering can?
game the 5 star rating by spamming flowers / DIY furniture etc. outside
add fencing
get nook upgraded
put some bridges and inclines in places
etc.
Any advice? Where could I put my flower breeding area?
help me
anybody have the dimensions of stairs? or are they the same as bridges
Im new to Animal Crossing and Discord ! Does anyone want to catalog ? I need Kitchen stuff ):
please dm me if you have any add-ons/ changes you recommend for my island's layout
@livid smelt maybe have it above the left stairs of your tree area
simple layout but I have big plans!
@queen wraith Hmm, maybe. Thanks for the idea!
amusement park feels too empty, what should I add
Help. Please. I'm trying to make a forest themed island and I cannot decide what to do with the houses. The one in the corner is lucky and that's a graveyard
My house is also going to be moved
@livid smelt np 👍
what are the dimensions of an incline?
For the amusement park I’d say double up on the amusements or maybe add some lights? Like to brighten it up
2x4/5 i think
that made no sense
@full marten easter fencing and balloons
@elfin python remove stairs
Anyone have ideas on how to decorate the campsite area?? Pls help 🥺
I have this patch of area here behind my nooks. Not sure what to do. I already made a cafe area
Made a little turnip area 😁
@ebon tulip the wild log benches around a campfire is nice for a camp imo
Yeah I’m just lost on how to present it
Maybe frame the seating area with some pine trees, and use weeds behind the seating to make it look more wild?
@ebon tulip flowers + stone paths for me
@ebon tulip here are parts of mine! its still a wip and i also used weeds and white hyacinths/tulips
That’s so cute omg
5 star island with some 5 star villagers 👉👈
Luckyy
ty 😄
raymond is over rated
but to each their own
as long as u enjoy ur game that’s all that matters 😖🥺👉🏾👈🏾
He’s overrated but people love him for a reason 😦
he is overrated but i like having things a lot of people want
LOL me
is my island too boxy?
i thought i wanted marshal but i sold him the next day lol
also no! ur island looks great
boxy is good too
I never understood why people hate on "boxy" or grid islands
what's wrong with being organized..
I think it looks very neat
its just preference, some people want a more natural look some dont. neither is right or wrong
it's like 3 layers i guess?
the boxy are my flowers 5x5
preach
my island map looks ugly so i dont even look at it LMAOO
i love looking at my map it calms me down
Mine gives me anxiety
ya same
honestly i flooded the area around my island
because i went for a weathering with you theme
literally she’s not in my town anymore and my hate for her still lingers
hahahaa i booted tf out of greta
it took ME HOURS TO GET RID OF HER
like island in the sky
she was one of my early villagers
hoursssssssssss
she never comes out her house either
literally!
yeah i had mad trouble with greta HAHA
my cuties. replacing lucky with coco
question, you know the way sometimes trees are in the middle of a street with a lil box? Does this look like that or should I just remove the trees that are there like this? Idk if it looks weird
Like back a square or into the grass?
Is it better to put down and official path then a custom path? or does it matter
neither is "better", just depends on what you want
Putting down official and then a custom on top creates paths on the map
Putting down custom makes no paths on the map
So its up to you really.
Hmm true, I was wondering also because there's this custom path I've been using and it's kind of strange because when I place down say 4 horizontally of an official path and then 4 custom on top, 3 of them will show the full design of the custom path but one will be kind of cut off
whats the size of the house, sorry if i'm interrupting.
Your Home: 5x4
Villager Home: 4x4
Museum: 7x4
Shop: 7x4
Tailor: 5x4
Campsite: 4x4
Everything is length by width in tiles. Cost to relocate a building is 50,000 bells. Your home is only 30,000 bells. Each building also has a 3x2 undigable footprint where the door is, in front of the building. Can place a path though. EXCEPT:
Museum: 3x1 door space.
Campsite: 2x1 door space
my home being 5x4 PISSED me off
I feel that the oath right next to the lake is a bit odd do you guys have any ideas what I can put between them?
Path*
like u can’t tell in this image but it’s not centered
thanks!
The struggle
AHAHA yea I ran into that same issue before so I decided im not gonna do that
it bothered me way too much
it was tooooo late
My town plaza is 1 square off of being centered with my airport
so i just made sure everything else was super fucking cute
so it offset it eisisofog
same @turbid sparrow
that’s SO FAR
that square
bruh
this is what I mean by like part of the custom design being cutoff
that’s illegal
when I put it on top of the official, i want paths on my map but this is bothering me LOL
Have so much space on my island. Any ideas on what i should make?
bruh I wanna make changes to my town but idk where to start and what I want it to look like 😔
I wonder why
dnsjsjsjskkdd
I just got terraforming yesterday and he was so happy with his Night Club lol 😭 I'm just creating a waterfall island 🏝
https://vm.tiktok.com/7Y3aRJ/
What are your two favorite flowers to put next to each other? I'm putting flowers next to town hall (I have all the colors)
hyacinths and lilies look nice imo!!
Anyone know the name of the sort of outdoor beach chairs used in alot of islands. Im trying to find the item but u dont know the name
Theyre like a sunbed
The poolside bed @ionic coral
@kind escarp tysm!
Working hard on my island design!
I like the kitty
How does that look at ground level?
😌
anyone ever notice this ladder, meaning theres a second story upgrade coming!
ooooh, I hope so!
honestly that makes sense that they'd put it in a later update so people didn't datamine everything right away
i think theyre gonna put the garden shop up top
Hiii~ Here's something unique for y'all if you're looking for more inspiration. I toured @heavy summit 's island, and this is it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HF_0th5hdI4
A Prison Island! This island is managed by officer Vinh. Before you go in, you gotta change into your jumpsuit. Love how unique this island looks.
Comment your thoughts, give it a like, and subscribe for more Animal Crossing: New Horizon island tours!
Working super hard and feel like my island is underwhelming lol
yeah I dunno how people get so creative. I think the hardest part is knowing where to start
ooh ive always been curious to see all of vinhs island lol i always see it in the chat
I made a GIANT usa flag in hyacinth flowers, that's about my only accomplishment so far.. working on an Alaska flag now but it's going to take forever. Already spent 3-4 million bells just on blue hyacinth flowers
whoa
awesome !!!
love the pink palms
also @woven drift i think it looks fine w/o the dark path but im not sure what else to put ? r u going for a dark theme
literally took like 5 years to do but im so happy with the outcome, ty guys 🥺👉🏼👈🏼🌸
yeah henteai that's crazy. I just sent it to my sisters and said "she's not f'in around" hahah
@crimson light not really a dark theme but i love these black flowers and i only have 6 (3 roses 3 lilies) and i like them near my house, but i feel like it don’t really fit and i have empty spaces but idk what to put here
my creativity was flowing hahaha 😂 but TYSMMM 😭
I recently toured someone yesterday as well, and I'll be uploading the video tomorrow, but here's the tease~
omfg
ikr? hahaha
omg i love the pyramids
her island is so crazy, i didn't want to go home lol
Shouldn’t there be an option to house design your island
like, this is the entrance
Make life easier
The Island of Ohana
@dense heart weren’t u asleep? Lol
My little fishing spot
My favorite spot on my island is my Twilight Star Garden
How sad
still looking for a shopping center/district inspo cause im so stuck 😢😔
Here’s mine
Its a bit different now but thats my center
tysm! that cart, is it a DIY? i’ve been looking for it
@wild cave you get it from playing pocket camp. Download it on the game through your phone
damnnn i dont have the app. can it be cataloged
@wild cave No but you can buy it off of someone
....i just unlocked terraforming and now i have no idea what to do with my island
@dense heart you lied to me lol
go crazy ahhh go stupid
My Fashion District
you should have known i’m an insomniac
@dense heart I don’t know you like that lol
i just reached 5 stars today so heres my map ! i still have a lot to do but i have the rating atleast lmo
Nice layout
the main curver river was an absolute pain...
that’s what she said
i flattened my entire island so all cliffs and rivers are hand done 😔
hehe
oop
The curve is awesome though.
Future Plans for when i get around to it. ☺️
My map is shit
Cherry Blossom Zen Garden!
I'm debating putting museum here, but I'm also considering moving it to the right so that it's up against the fence, and using the extra space on the left for tables or an outdoor museum display. Thoughts?
Future Plans for when i get around to it. ☺️
@plain lance this is super lovely, bear in mind that the default paths are terrible and cannot be laid diagonally in a nice way
oh i know, that was just for marking out. im probably gonna use custom ones
Some park and beach side scenery
wait yall i found an old picture of my map vs now. the progress....
Looking good
@dreamy fox I love how important features remained the same but were changed in terms of location. Like the heart pond and the wired ring lake.
ty ! they were things i still wanted but my island needed major rearrsgement for my goals ahhh
could anyone help me with island layout/ideas? i'm having horrible creative block rn
Lovely island @dreamy fox must have taken you ages!
this is my layout so far?? I'll fix the rivers, I'm sure that's where I want the house to be
I'm just worried about the inclines because I hope it's in the center
wait yall i found an old picture of my map vs now. the progress....
@dreamy fox great progress! i love the curved river
@granite hemlock I think a good approach is first identifying the bits you gotta have, campsite, villagers houses, shops. I placed these based on both convenience and aesthetics, then i started themeing areas based on cool furniture etc
I'm also having so much trouble with the river layout. It's a bit hard. I do want more room, but not less river if anyone knows what I mean
Here’s my progress !
Nice
I'm starting on the 'wild' right side of my island tonight
What are you going to do with it
Lost woods
Very cool
I wana see thattt
I liked using windflowers for my wooded/campsite area
Just scattered in amongst trees
I'm going to switch up my entrance as well, as it's tropical atm but i'm going to go single theme and make it more Foresty.
Seeing everyone else's island makes me feel so self-conscious because I don't know what to do and I just want it to be perfect ;-;;
Nah dude
My rocks......... really screw me
It's a fun process, just try out ideas and if you don't like them you can always switch it up
do you guys have some tips on making a good island layout >~<
The waterfalls too???
I like those waterfalls
Me too
I've got a better waterfall layout towards the back
behind my house
2 secs, will record
WAAIT YOU CAN DESTROY YOUR ROCKS AND THEY RESPAWN ELSE WHERE????????????
@autumn pivot yes eat fruit to destroy rocks
One rock respawns per day
I knew you could destroy them
So don’t destroy all at once
I wish I had picked a better start layout. Makes me so mad that my town hall and airport aren't centered
I could destroy them all and be fine
Well, unless you want the resources from them
@versed wadi that is amazing nice work man
Yeah I'm kinda of obsessed lol
but part of this wildlife section will rectify that
Exciting
Love this view when I start each day ☺️
I'm getting lumberjack vibes lol
That's pretty cool Wolfie, not sure what everything is though
I like the central square
Yeah very very rough layout just to get my thoughts down
What's the bottom left about? Are those shops or?
Yeah shops and museum
Nice
I'm going to open the gates if anyone wants to come visit and leave feedback/ideas?
me! @versed wadi
I would love to but I'm supposed to be working 😔
I would love to but I'm supposed to be working 😔
@woven drift Maybe later
can anyone show me there playground i need some inspo 🥺
What kind of aesthetic are you going for? Country fence might look good if you want it cottage-y
Maybe a white simple fence tho
or the stone one?
is there white fence ?
Ah yea I see the stone path
I just kind of assumed you could customise it white lol
Not sure.
really want the stone one but it’s never in my shop lol
i’m going to try to customize it and see
@woven drift I've got stacks of it I can share
I went a bit overboard crafting it when making my village
Probably the only thing I'm proud of right now is my front entrance. Also, don't mind the dead bird-
what do you guys think
@versed wadi that would be super nice ! do you want something in return ? can give you bells or 1 NMT !
looks really good
the dead bird is a little detail, it's supposed to seem cute but there was a murder XD
I would personally move the fence closer to the path but it is cool 👍
Exactly ^^
Hey guys, anyone know the dimensions of a villager house?
4x4
4 wide and 3 deep @frosty urchin
Oh wait sorry
Thx 😊
Does anyone have any extra fence DIY?
I can get stone fence or zen fence
@safe ether it is 4x4 for villager houses
Is the zen black and white? Sorry I’m new to the game
@ebon tulip I dug holes when I was moving all my houses to see what the dimensions were 🤷🏼♀️ lol
@versed wadi that would be super nice ! do you want something in return ? can give you bells or 1 NMT !
@woven drift sure give me 5
@restive locust
Dimensions are in pinned in chat
@restive locust
@safe ether can i buy one from you
I can just bring it to you. Let me get it real quick.
Awh thank you very much. Just dm me when you’re ready
Cute 😊
Can i visit someone? My Store is closed a
I need to buy the Things to Paint furniture
does anyone have a wood platform QR?
I think my amusement park&games beach is coming together idk.... any suggestions ? : ))
Late night in Momonoki
Does anyone have any wilderness type items they'd be willing to part with/trade? Like the Log furnitures
or mushrooms
I want to go all in on the forest section
Hi Guys, I am super stuck on whether to have my shops to the left of the campsite (so it is nearby majority of my villagers) or to have them on the left nearby where they are currently and keep all the houses together.
I am torn 😦
I like the idea of a shopping district and residential district
Looking for orchard layout inspiration.
Google just gives me guides on tree growth, but I care more about the final layout
Anyone wanna weed my island
If you have an orchard, sure (just checking out, no fruit stealing)
Nkay, you’re welcome to see mine ^^
Hit me up with your code
nkay if you have twitter there's a bunch of cool ones ! majority of them are cottagecore aesthetic
Just crafting for someone and I will open it when I get back for you ^^
Warning, it’s not super pretty in Autumn at night time :p but hey
@knotty needle what should I search on twitter to see some inspiration?
on twitter i usually search up 'acnh (whatever)' i usually search for designs so i add designs at the end and in nkay's case it would be orchard
Looks lovely 🙂
thank u sm sin 🧸
@woven drift can I get the design number for the sign?
I love the stall in the coffee shop
I’m trying to make an area just for my museum . Should I move it more to the right? So the edge of the 2 level matches the start of that river?
HEY looking to tour people's islands mostly looking for inspiration for Fruit Orchards, will tip some NMT if it has some passion behind it's design :))
your islands are inspiring ❤️
@mystic minnow you're welcome to tour
sounds good! mind if swing by in a bit? just trying to decide where to put something quic
@gaunt turtle terraform madness
guys i need help with my island can someone dm if they can help its about a path im fully stuck on it bc the limit on inclines
Playground area
Anyone got iron stone fences for trade?
Anyone have an idea how I can fill this little area behind my Able Sisters shop? https://i.imgur.com/tjfnqRq.jpg
Maybe some garden tables and chairs
stalls? make it a little clothing market
Or some laundry / clothing stuff as if it was their backyard
ooh, I could put some small stools/seats each side and use one of the raised platform looking patterns and make like a little catwalk..
tearing down my river and rebuilding it from scratch makes me feel so powerful 😈
@ember kestrel I can relate lol. I completely flattened my island too
that's so much effort but it's the right thing to do if you're not interested in relying on the default map. I need to stop letting my default map hold me back, I'm trying to keep my mind open to big changes if they make me happy
all my villagers house are next to each other and i kind of want to make them all a lil garden
This is my map right now. I’m currently working on moving all the houses to the upper part right now. The thing I’m scared of is what I’m going to do with all the space on my island lol. I have a bunch of space that’s empty and I don’t know what to do to get the most potential. Plz help 😭😭😂
I think 20 but I’m not sure
I'm sooo bad at helping people with advice on that sort of thing!!! my only suggestion is we don't know how far off those future updates are with maybe future shopfronts and I plan to have a section of my island open for future ideas
I have a screenshot of coding I saw for future shops
plus a big chunk of the top of my map is just for hybrid breeding and I have no idea how long that's going to stay that way
I’d send it but idk where I can send it lol
Can soomeone dm me for terraforming advice?
update: one square is in fact 16x16 tiles in size
if I showed a screenshot of my current map.. well, it's a big wip
wouldn't look very good
Lol
Will I be able to build an incline where I'm standing?
If it’s two wide probably
The "bridge" leading to the path up to my house so far
Think it needs to be 4 but I could be wrong
Hey y'know how people make cafes or pools? What are some other areas like those I could add. I need some places to add DIY furniture for island evals.
First time posting in here but here’s a cute little coffee shop area I’m making
looks nice
Thank you!
ooo what is that white wooden path qr? ;0;
*code
qrs are so last game smh
I found it on twitter I think!!! I can see if u can fine the code
I’ve been working on my island since yesterday at 10 am... it’s now 5:24 am two days later and I feel like I’ve done nothing
i can relate
ive been working for weeks tho lol
btw how can it be two days later than yesterday ? O_o
haha
im technically done with mine for now but i also hate it and want to restart but cannot justify it to actually act on my hatred
Does anyone have any tips on how to improve an island?
If it’s two wide probably
@past tundra Ok so it only needs to be 2 wide?
Hey y'know how people make cafes or pools? What are some other areas like those I could add. I need some places to add DIY furniture for island evals.
@woven drift something that takes up a lot of space are sports fields, basketball, soccer, baseball. I also thought of doing a movie set area with the dinosaur lol
I think
two wide is all you need, pretty sure
I can’t wait to get Nintendo online 😅 I’m buying it later today and I can finally visit people’s islands and find i n s p i r a t i o n
wow.. good luck with getting to the point of being happy, I considered resetting a couple times but I couldn't do it @past tundra

ikr, I waited awhile to get mine
I restarted cause I got ugly villagers and pears as my starting fruit.. I also chose the worst possible starter island. I kept restarting until I got cherry and apples. It took like 3 hours
I want to move my Nook shops forward approximately 4 squares, but I can’t move it there because it’s going to block the building I’m moving...??
Am I missing something or do I need to move it to some random spot and then move it back
I got lucky, I got oranges and decent villagers after only 5 tries
Moved it away then back

@ivory schooner Unfortunately yes.

@past tundra
What’s the big deal about starting fruit? Am I missing something?
I only wanted to reset if I absolutely hated what I got. but my two starter villagers quickly became the loves of my life lol. I couldn't leave them
@past tundra
What’s the big deal about starting fruit? Am I missing something?
@ivory schooner It was mainly preference and I really wanted apples on my passport
Ahh oki^^
I got apples, I'm happy with it
@ivory schooner Unfortunately yes.
@past tundra
That is super poor design. What a shame.
@ivory schooner i want to move my nooks cranny literally one square to the left
My first two villagers rn are cherry, and stinky 😂 I’m trying to kick stinky out but he doesn’t wanna leave...
I need to do it with Nooks, Ables and my house. So I guess 6 days :/
cherry is a queen
Agreed
I haven’t got much room to dump a 7x4 area easily
mine are Ursala and Samson! I'm moving them in next to my house lol
Very frustrating. Time to clear some trees
Lol
I’m wasting all my nook miles to find one villager and I can’t find them anywhere... I’m trying to fill out all my plots but I don’t want random villagers to move in and nobody is using the campsite for some reason
that sucks! I got daisy the other day in my campsite even though I'm at maximum villagers. thought she was a bit boring though
I could've used her to move out someone like Al but I require having at least one of each personality and he's my only lazy
I was hoping for a dog! but me and my husband both weren't very interested by her
I have al rn and I hate him so much lol... he literally doesn’t ever leave his house
@rapid fractal which villager do you want?
al is controversial af
Mhm
he lives isolated on my beach
he somehow comes all the way to the plaza. not as lazy as I thought lol
I fenced al’s house so I could make him feel isolated
I recently got pietro and Octavian and I was ecstatic. They are my favorite villagers in my island, close behind cherry and audie
I guess I got really lucky because I’ve gotten a bunch of my dream villagers and I’m very happy about it (:
one thing that's really starting to annoy me about this new ac is how it doesn't matter what personality they have? if you have bob the cat, he doesn't have any unique dialogue does he? he talks exactly the same way about bugs and gross stuff and just being weird. unless I'm wrong? so it doesn't make a difference between bob and al. it's all in our heads because of their model, and I don't know how to feel about that
I feel like they do say different stuff? maybe tahts just me
I'm starting to look a bit too deep into it. but people just go so crazy about those top 10 most popular villagers or whatever
that'd be great if they did. I just don't see it so far
I think they are gonna have personality updates because I saw that they were thinking about extending the release date again to make more changes but I’m not sure. I hope they do so they can add more hairstyles and dialogue. Isabelle is getting a bit annoying with always having no news for me 😅😅
my three jocks all have exactly the same dialogue, one that moved in the day prior will say exactly same things as my og Samson
well lets say I have Rolf and Betty, rolf being grumpy and betty being peppy, They were talking to eachcother and Betty was just using weird happy words like the bomb to describe things and rolf did not underestand idk. OR when you get a flee off of them they say different things based on their personality some find it horrible some dont mind they had them
ahhh
Yea well if they have the same personality they do kind of say the same things yea, thats why I prefer all different types
I dislike jocks. At least the personality type because I very much hate sports and I want them all to move away
I just find them boring and don’t talk to them 🤗
they're not too much more than sports talk are they lol! it's just sports and working out 100% of the time
It’s annoying 😂😂
I talk to them cause they're so cute, which is why I'm ok with Leonardo moving out because I don't find him very visually appealing anymore. I do regret inviting him. sorry for going off topic
Also I did wanna show how cute they are sometimes, Stiwtches eating a sandwitch at my cafe
I just wish this game had more depth and more interest. I'm very excited for future updates, new hairs would be awesome
it's true, very cute! my twiggy was doing that the other day
I made him completely isolated and wasted 50k bells on it.. I think I might terraform a wall around his home cause I hate him
hahahahaha o god
did you see the tiktok about him? 😳
Y e s
have you tried when you get a camper to make him leave? If they say a name that is not him close the game without saving and do it till they mention him
I would but I haven’t gotten any campers for the past week
do you have amiibo cards ?
I don’t know why I’m not time skipping and I have open plots
And hah no.. I’m gonna get the nfctags and use those. Cause it’s cheaper
I guess it's just rng
Maybe
does anyone know a way to do diagonal paths
I had a go at it at my new park, but I might change in the future. I'll get on the game
ooohhh.... I forgot to get off my game last night lol
Lol
I never turn it off I just put my switch on sleep mode
It’s almost always docked. Tho
yeah mine as well
Lol
@meager warren Here are these workarounds for diagonal paths I found online
cool!!!!
Do weeds impact your Island rating score?
To some extent, yes
I want to decorate with them in my 'wild' section
I think that may be fine
@meager warren looks funny on the map though
yeah, my island is named skyloft and i wanted to take inspiration from the way skyloft actually looks
theres a lot of diagonal paths and i hate how we cant have smooth edges
instead they go that weird circular lumpy sorta thing
How did the person get a waterfall next to the incline? I’m trying to do the same but it didnt work
Lol I plan on making the lumpy paths and putting the custom design path over it
This is mine
forced perspective?
is the waterfall actually behind it?
dig back two more squares either side
Was the waterfall built before the incline was constructed, maybe?
is there any way to make a completely rounded lake
My Nook's Cranny is gonna be upgrading tomorrow. I'm really gonna miss this market setup I came up with. Doubt it'll work as well with the newer shop...
I think it will still look good (:
thats cool
i wanna do a lake like this but dont know if its actually possible
With this one I had, I could go behind the stalls to access the sell-box & sign. The newer shop probably won't allow for that. Oh well.
you might have to destroy the first row of cliff sticking out then build the waterfall on the row where the end of the incline sits @random sandal
does anyone have an idea for what to build on my island
i already have:
arcade
cafe
gym
bc I just made that waterfall with no tricks
Can everyone please show their island map. I need inspiration and currently I have none.
Got my castle taking shape
Wait so you can move your museum?
Can everyone please show their island map. I need inspiration and currently I have none.
@tribal pelican
@umbral trench ooh! It worked! Thank you!
np
@tribal pelican yes!
super wip, most buildings are being moved
hi could someone show me their museum layouts, I've been trying to figure out how to make it look good on the map
@ember kestrel it looks good so far!!
i dont want to completely finish the island rn because im 99% sure theyre going to add brewesters, redd's and a lot of shops
then i wont have space
ahhhh ty! I'm putting my whole heart into this project lol
I love the seaside cliffs you have going
I need inspiration for my entrace QQ
Can you also move the airport or is that not a thing ?
My map isn't great but I'm getting there
@tribal pelican no you can't and town hall either
yasss I want to cut off the beach from the rest of it and decorate the whole thing
haven't rly worked on my island in a while
I haven't seen people pay much attention to their beaches. I want it to look like popular beaches irl
Lmk what you come up with! I have some issues w my beaches haha
okay np 😭 I appreciate it
I really like this part of my island
Hmm I just put surfplans and beach towels etc, fishing area with the fishing tournament stuff
@mystic crown mine is extremely simple lol
Can people show me their shopping areas?
Oof that really cute, at least your is something ahah
I haven’t added anything special to mine, as I don’t have the transforming editor app yet . But the lake is annoying me so much and idk how I’m gonna transform the homes and such.
I dont really have an established shopping area lol
I've been trying to incorporate water a lot, done about 30 hours of terraforming. Would really appreciate an opinion on it
Also did anyone have the exact same map as mine, wouldn’t mind seeing your map now (as it was transformed)
Annotated
awesome. ahhh you have apple
Apple runs the cafe by the sea
I had her in new leaf and every time I saw her I would get so happy 😍
Same
she's just a precious bean u know
I just need to change the parts within the black the rest is basically done 😄
@rich fjord can you show us a pic of your pathing in the village area.
Looks interesting
oh sure 🙂 sec
Ok thank you !!
Could I visit someone? Like Robin or McGibbon
first or second setup for my fruit-market stand? (:
second? it's precious
@rugged rain also sure you can come visit if you like just dm me whenever
@rich fjord can I also get an invite
Ohh I’m available now!
okay thanks! ☺️
This is me walking towards the villagers part with a small part of it
Ill get you guys a code
ooooh, love that big stone table!
Oehhh Thankyou
wow robin! so creative and cute!
what theme should i do for my island? i'm stuck between tropical and like pink and white cutesy
thankyouu 😄
Very Forrestyyy
ava i follow someone on twitter who mixes those two styles, https://twitter.com/samanabayisland
maybe you can get inspo from her feed
@scenic blaze omg thank u
any museum layout idea? I dont know how to design my museum 😦 i dont want to terraform everything lol
ooo both decks are cute but i think i prefer shorter?
shorter gives more room for versatility w outdoor furniture i think ^^
ya that's what i'm thinking although i love the look of longer too
omg thank you I needed to hear that hahah
shorter or longer deck? i can’t decide 🥺
@orchid fractal short
How’d you do that with the deck
omg that cuteeeeeeeeeeee
@steel lotus it’s a custom path that lays on the bottom row of the wood path, makes it look elevated
Ohhh that looks sweet
angled waterfalls arent a thing are they
No
Thats looks cooolll, they r
No
do u have the qr for that ?
@steel lotus it’s a custom path that lays on the bottom row of the wood path, makes it look elevated
@orchid fractal
There has to be one whole block of land next to a waterfall
@raw trellis build a park around it
@versed wadi Thanks for the idea! I just dont know how to incorporate it to my town. My town looks like a Jap suburb hehe 😦
@quasi badger their creator code is MA-2983-6772-8811 🙂
thank uuuuuuu
no worries, enjoy!
Does anyone have any ideas on what i can make here without terraforming anything?
add benches, decoy duck, couple trees, some flowers, lil parklet!
hmm, seems like a cool idea. thanks!
@orchid fractal Can you dm me the codes for the deck?
is there a 'best' island-layout? Or one that's recommended?
So I'm doing a complete island terraform and don't know what to do with trees. I started sectioning them to one area but it takes a lot of time and space. Should I continue or cut them down and replant the ones I want later when I'm done?
@orchid fractal nvm
@plain kindle their creator code is MA-2983-6772-8811, you can lay it on top of the wood path
Oh thanks
oh my g od XD
it's supposed to be relaxing lmao XD
it was relaxing until i got terratransforming 😂
omg that’s so cute
It creeps me out a lil bit
Maybe surround it with cliffs and put wooden floors down and then just have the boards and desks?
Oh ok! Tyyyy~~
omg the menu design is so cute kelp do you have a code for that?
No XD
AHAH RIP
i always feel so bad, cause i lose my codes XD
I wanna make a full on mcdonald’s in my island what items would you guys suggest
it's okayyy
hello! question for people who have flower farms, how many of each flower and colour do you normally place?
omg kelp if you put a cacao plant in the lil dip down from the bench i think that would be perfect
some good menu's on here https://nooksisland.com/designs?search=menu
oh wow thank you so much!!!!
could someone help me with layout/design ideas for my island? my theme is tropical and like pink and white aesthetic (i'm going to use one of those paths or paths like those)
the white pathing would fit in more w your theme imo
^^
i can't think of anything to put in all my peppy villagers yards, and that's like 80% of my villagers lmfao XD
Who have please some school furnitures
there's lots of people selling their lockers on the site
i sold mine so i can't help ):
^^
@woven drift Make them run shops outside their homes, bakery, cafe, sushi restaurant
Like a backyard!
i only have one peppy but she's rocking a flamingo and a cute dress on the mannequin in her yard rn
2x1 stall… decorate with the theme for that villager
My yards
eh, i have wayyy to many stalls in my town

@queen nexus I have waterfalls on my waterfalls
I’m making a little bamboo/zen garden with some Sakura items!
can i see your island layout lmao
my unfinished areas of the island are basically tree and flower dumping zones
felt that
they look horrible and i can't walk in them but i clear them out slowly as i replant stuff
After I finish that and have flick come a few more times I’m gonna make a little outdoor art gallery for flick!
My two main waterfall areas
Also built a little bamboo chilling/vibin area 😍✨
kiki!!!!!! she's my favorite
ooo @versed wadi i need to take some tips from you lmao
