exotic girder
#

Your guises islands look amazing mine poo compared to these

finite cargo
#

I need bushes to count as flowers bc in order to place bushes where I want, I gotta dig up flowers and that'll destroy my island rating

patent sky
#

I think bushes will count as flowers and the hedges will count as fence

finite cargo
#

I hope you're right lulu!!

patent sky
#

Otherwise it's bad game design imo since they put so much weight into fences

sly stream
#

made a baseball field but after i finished i thought it was missing something so i looked up baseball field and i guess i forgot what they looked like

finite cargo
sly stream
#

@agile yarrow something unique-ish i’ve seen is like putting the stores by the town hall and making it seem like a big farmers market or florist

limber vector
#

@agile yarrow I've seen people surround it with water so it becomes its own little island

woven drift
#

does anybody have a white and pink theme ? or some nice white patterns ? i’m trying to make one and i need inspo lol

proud topaz
#

What are your guys' strategies/methods to come up with a nice island layout ?

finite cargo

trial and error my friend

ivory salmon

Except my villager part is p cute :>

finite cargo
#

my island is covered in more than 60 tree branches rn so I know how many bushes to buy fml

patent sky
#

@quaint drum right now you have a lot of water so not much room for furniture and such?

timid stream
#

@patent sky I like that platform thing. How’d you do that

woven drift
#

@finite cargo the answer is to buy all the bushes

patent sky
#

@finite cargo that's GENIUS

#

@timid stream it's a custom path I'll DM

timid stream
#

You can buy bushes?

woven drift
#

ALL THE SHRUBS

finite cargo
#

@finite cargo that's GENIUS
@patent sky I'm marking where I want to put them but my island will be ugly until the update comes lmfao

woven drift
#

They're coming the end of this week @timid stream

shell tiger
#

@timid stream in 2 days

patent sky
#

I mean you could bury them?

sly stream
#

@timid stream i feel like you could do something with the flowers that are there, and then add a lot more? and then create a lattice fence

#

idk how to explain it but i see it clear in my mind

woven drift
#

You can watch the Nintendo trailer if you want to see what else they're adding

ember kestrel
finite cargo
#

I mean you could bury them?
@patent sky that's more work

timid stream
#

They need to make it so you can edit everything touching the house

patent sky
#

@timid stream you should create a path and block the line of sight towards town hall with trees so it looks larger

timid stream
#

But yes wtf that’s adorable

#

Oooo okay

ember kestrel
#

for sure! would be nice

sly stream
#

yea sunii make them do like a floral garden walkthrough all the way to town hall and to the rest of the island

shell tiger
#

You could also put some water or cliffs next to it, idk I did that I feel like it makes it look nice 🙂 @timid stream

#

depends on what you look for

timid stream
#

Next to what

shell tiger
#

the entrance

sterile peak
#

tbh this channel is making me want to do a ton of layout work for my island but moving buildings is so expensive

wild heron
whole bear
ember kestrel
#

I'm investing in the stalk market so I can put my riches into moving buildings and building inclines

patent sky
finite cargo
#

I'm gonna spend at least 25k bells on bushes lmfao

ember kestrel
#

yessss that path is so nice!! never seen it before @whole bear

proud topaz
#

What do you guys think is better: paths that are 3 tiles wide or 2 tiles wide?

sterile peak
#

omg such pretty flowers

finite cargo
#

I like 2 tiles wid

latent shoal
wild heron
#

2 tiles, blends into stairs and bridges nicely

sterile peak
#

i normally have a main path that's 3 but everything else is 2

proud topaz
#

2 tiles it is

ember kestrel
#

yes main path being 3 is good. better for high foot traffic

woven drift
finite cargo
#

nah my main is 2 and its good

timid stream
#

@patent sky whats the design or your island? Like layout from start?

woven drift
#

I'm really lost 😭 I love symmetry islands but then I see natural messy islands and now I can't choose which I want

timid stream
#

Yo wtf that’s cute

onyx hill
woven drift
#

@ember kestrel same, I got a different colour today! Simple panels got popular as soon as someone turned them into signs or menu signs which was creative

ember kestrel
#

little baby islands add so much depth to the environment from the screenshots I've seen

bitter inlet

ember kestrel

So, I want some thoughts on filling in my island. Layouts for cafés, benches, the works.

woven drift

woven drift
#

@wild heron I love that haven't seen it before!!

patent sky
#

Lololol I'm sorry!!

proud topaz
#

Do you guys like to terraform the actual shape of your island? Or is it best to try to keep the land as natural as possible

finite cargo
cloud pond
#

@finite cargo Yup, we all love this kind of entrances

woven drift
#

The flowers tho

onyx hill
#

my entrance is simple too

finite cargo
#

cloud pond
#

I just have a plain rectangle with a fountain that leads to paths to the rest of my island ;-; Y'all make me feel weak

north yoke
#

I still have to move some houses but do you guys have any ideas for a shopping area/ park? what kinds of spaces do you guys have on your islands?

patent sky
#

@proud topaz I prefer starting from the base not flattening stuff

woven drift
#

@finite cargo nice flex

sinful sundial

frosty spruce
#

hahah yes! i use a lot of her designs and build off of them as wel

willow pollen

@sly stream exactlyyyy planning ur whole island from the very start ends up just getting u stressed

@woven drift terraforming most likely!

You just gotta use all the space and terraform, there's more than you think

iinstead of noving everything to the beach, just terraform a portion of it and then move it to the right loc.?

runic rover
#

having terraforming gives me too much power. I can't handle so many possibilities

plain fox
#

also can you place builidings on the 4th level or no?

winter onyx

@jovial basalt i have villager houses close to each other but its not too fancy

My island's big feature is i lined all the paths with flowers lol

I have 4 stars so far, Isabelle says I just need DIY furniture around

My island layout so far with veeeery minimal terraforming. Need to figure out what to do with the top right area 🤔

does anyone have pictures of their town hall, I need inspiration, I'm not sure how to make the area around it look nice

@hard wing @woven drift Thanks! Yep they're all custom designs. The two on the left I got from Reddit, and the two on the right I created by myself. I'll try to post all four on this chat in a few mins

ooo ok

@wintry junco can you share those design IDs

wind wind
#

I tried to make a town area around the town hall, but I realized that there was no space around the houses to place fences/furniture. Any tips for making a layout that would allow me to do that?

primal ginkgo
#

@wind wind you could move the houses a couple tiles back? As long as it’s not blocking you path it’ll free up some space without forcing you to change much

#

Trying to make those little island areas to the bottom left look natural, any tips to keep them natural but not ugly looking?

wind wind
#

I thought about that, but I could only move it one tile backwards

bright lily
#

Natural is erratic and unplanned, rounded rather than straight

primal ginkgo
#

@sturdy bobcat it might also help to expand the really thin ones to allow you to make it more natural

bright lily
#

You kinda have to go in there, smooth some corners, see what happens when you mix different kinds of stuff to create interesting shapes

#

Nature has all kinds of weird bumps

arctic agate
#

I saw somebody have their houses along a river should I do that too?

sturdy bobcat
#

@primal ginkgo there are some thin lines in until I get more bridges, or do you mean the one on the right?

bright lily
#

Remove a tile of land from here or there, add another elsewhere

@sturdy bobcat right most yeah

adding random curves. and sharp angles can help with making things look more natural. anything to make the rivers and cliff less straight

@quaint drum what are you looking to do? It looks really good so far! Just add some flowers ^^

Villagers don't do much walking, they mostly teleport when you're not looking

So they'll be able to access the area still
