I already have
ty!! @/ babiismol is my twitter i occasionally post some stuff like tht incase ur interested
FUCK IT I'm embracing the city theme full on. i have enough space to make it work.
wht panels?
you could line up a waterfall with a door right
the one that says please walk on it
oh sure. you'd have to provide materials tho
yeah, what's the recipe?
dm me
okay
does someone here wanna share his/her orchard? i need inspiration😖
Making pool of $emp
Does this make it look more I guess natural
Been reworking my museum layout, still haven't touched the second layer much.
Try to offset the cliffs from each other so they don’t line up so much, I think that’ll really help
That was for bigbungy
best road + sidewalk you guys have seen?
don't know if anyone else watches It's Always Sunny in here, but for some reason as I'm about to enter Redds boat for the first time I'm getting vibes from Dennis Reynolds, that I won't say no to buying his art due to the "implications"
she cant refuse
she's on a boat with a guy she barely knows, what's she gonna do, say no?
i’d put two spaces from the waterfall then make more waterfalls that’s how long the steps are, so it would add more to look at! @wispy pond
Does anyone have a Japanese Like Island entrance?
awwh :(( i kinda would want that theme- the lanterns and zen garden- i’m busy looking for anyone who had i think it’s called blossom lanterns? i didn’t get the recipe :((
I think you’re getting there with those cliffs!
@fallow tusk where are your stone paths from?
I have the cherry blossom lantern recipe, if you supply mats I can craft for you
can we link 2nd level ground over water with bridges ? or the water needs to be on the same level for the bridge to be built?
oooo! what does it need??
welp here I go trying to discern real from fake art, wonder if I'll be qualified for a job at an art museum by the time I'm done with this game
6 cherry petals 4 hardwood
ahhh i’ll go get some materials!
DM me your dodo code when you’re ready and I’ll stop over!
alright! :D** **
i wish you could still buy the fake art, after buying a piece from Redd. I really want to decorate my island with counterfeit art
@scenic blaze could u craft some cherry blossom lanterns for me?
make my island a copyright black hole per say
@granite hemlock sure once I’m done crafting them for zak, set up a dodo code and I’ll come over
okay :))
Alright I’ll go to ava’s first ty for letting me know
i’ll need to try get more cherry blossoms too- do you get the recipe at a certain amount?
No it’s random from balloons
oooooh! alright- i’ll see if i can get it on my own, if not i’ll get back to you!🥰
@arctic gate found it in the path qr section
Does anyone have some really cool farm layouts they can show me? I need inspiration.
I want to put something on top, but i dont know what. Already thought of a moon but not sure. Does anyone have any suggestions to decorate this? I also might add some more cliff land to the right
Do you guys think Tom Nook has a million toolbars installed on his laptop like a boomer would?
just clicks yes and installs everythign that pops up
yes
@topaz pivot what kind of aesthetic are you going for in this area?
@sterile stratus do you mean moving it two spaces down? I would do that but it would cut into my river.
could anyone sell me murshroom lamps and cherry blossom lanterns? i'll pay 1 NMT per item :)) (i know it's the wrong server but i know people on here use them to decorate)
@scenic blaze not sure yet, i think a bit faery/ethereal but I'm also fine with some more natural looks
any of yall know how much space inclines take
can anyone send me their island map? i need inspiration for mine @.@
two spaces across
@topaz pivot hmm you can marry the two with some blue hydrangea bushes, hyacinth lamp diy, and maybe the mossy or tall stone diy. It’s not as much of a centerpiece as the moon though
@ebon vine it’s 3x2 on the bottom and you also need 1x2 on the top
I decided to add this little island in the pond I was wondering if it looks good or not.
I like it!
Thanks!
@wispy pond looks awesome! How would people sit though
Maybe a fossil would look cooler
You can jump over gaps 1 or 2 blocks wide.
Oh! LOL I didn’t know that 😂
Check out my baseball field y’all
It's all good! @frail geyser
Hmm thanks, I'll try some stuff out and otherwise do the moon anyway. Its chillin like this now @scenic blaze
if only the balls were still movable objects
Hmm thanks, I'll try some stuff out and otherwise do the moon anyway. Its chillin like this now @scenic blaze
@topaz pivot Where did you get her from&
@peak kettle you can make the moon with a celeste diy!
oh, welp, thx!
idea for my island
@shy finch what did u use to make that map? it looks really great btw!
happy island designer
how do y’all display or show off your hybrids?
https://eugeneration.github.io/HappyIslandDesigner/
@frosty sleet
its a website
ooh thanks
gonna take ages to make in game tho lol
nah just weeks
Eh if you time traveled it wouldn’t be an issue
i consider that cheating
different for everyone
too bad it doesn’t matter because people are gonna enjoy the game the way they want to
im not saying you shouldnt
I time traveled back and forth like ten times so I could set up my resident area, I’m super proud of it
Cost me hella bells though
im just saying that thats something i really dont want to do
ok
i want to experience the game in real time
ok
I'm fine with time travel for specific stuff like making bridges and stuff since it takes months if you want to do it normally. Skipping to like December or something is usually a no go for me.
Same^^
tbh
not sure in what direction to go with terraforming, mostly stuck on rivers, any advice
any foresty/cottagecore entrance ideas?
I don’t see the point of waiting nearly two weeks just to move all my houses
Reggie knows what's up
any foresty/cottagecore entrance ideas?
@granite hemlock don't place trees with any symmetry
But I don’t want to spoil the wonder of going into a new season and finding new fish
@peak kettle okay!
what do you guys think of my island entrance?
@granite hemlock loads of stepping stones!
@granite hemlock I have a cottage-core theme for my island too:) I'll post a couple of pics
how do ppl even manage to plant 100+ trees for 5 stars omg..
@spiral marsh add some more lights and its awesome
@scenic veldt thanks!
Very pretty! I love the flower combos
@granite hemlock loads of stepping stones!
@scenic veldt oh yeah, some custom paths would looks awesome!
@buoyant gate please doo :))
omg thats so cute
gotcha. I'm purchasing more garden lamps :) ty
@buoyant gate what's the id for the stepping stones u used?
how do y’all display your hybrids?
Love the mix of darker and lighter colors! @buoyant gate
Pretty sure it's just the wooden one in game
@granite hemlock hold up lemme find it:)
okayy
@wispy pond tyy
@granite hemlock I couldn't find the exact one but here's the creator code for a very similar one: MA-0863-5489-9880
@buoyant gate thanks so muchh
@granite hemlock np:)
Nice camping area personally I would add a bit more dark dirt. Other then that really good! Love the use of the campsite sign! @wanton void
@wispy pond thankss I’ll add more dirt;)
Are we allowed to ask Qs about layout stuff here, or is it only for showing off designs?
Anyone have a small picnic/ gathering area?
I think you can if it's like constructive criticism and stuff like that yea @woven drift
@woven drift ask away tbh, this channel is pretty chill
@sonic compass
Ill delete if not allowed, but i cant figure out how to fix this T-shape when trying to build a fence corner right against a wall like this
which paths?
shall i leave a space for the hedge, or shall i put the houses right at the back and make the front yard bigger?
Ty
@granite hemlock theyre both good for different uses, hut im more inclined for stone
so i didn't realise you can have FOUR not three levels of terraforming? and i've already come pretty far... i'm so demotivated now omg
yes, but you cant access the fourth level
So its just for like, admiring a tall peak?
@lapis pond you cant climb them though
@woven drift if you build it from the side it'll make it straight instead of that T end piece
island boner
really? you can't build an incline or anything to it?
@lapis pond nope if you try using the ladder it says its too dangerous
any chance future updates will change that? or is it definitive
No idea
@thick tendon well id like it to be a corner piece, but not this t shaped corner piece
oh fair enough! @mystic gazelle thanks for clarifying, makes me feel a little better about not knowing ;-;
Has anybody seen any cool ideas for how to make a hybrid flower garden look good?
Here is my dinosaur Jurassic Park themed island. Some features so far, kaiju foot print lakes, Rex shaped river, a digpit and a dino info table near museum
@woven drift the only way to get a corner is by actually making a corner
@woven drift you can only have a corner piece if it connects to a another piece say behind the house
@frail palm AHHH ITS INCREDIBLEDDD
Oh poo that stinks, but thanks for the help guys!
sorry to post it again, but should i leave a space behind the houses for the hedges, or shall i put it right at the back and give room for extra front yard space
@pearl cedar either section it off by color or random distribution for a more natural look
Nice paw prints on the path
either would be fine @barren karma i would personally push up against the edge though
@barren karma id put it at the back
@frail palm cool flag too
gotcha! so no space for the hedges?
nope, try have the hedges hit the house flat and see how that looks
should i keep the hedges at the side, then?
@barren karma yes:)
Y’all have watched me build this entrance for three days but I think it’s finally done. I posted pictures to my Twitter if you’d like to see the full area 🙂 https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1254063189702004737?s=21
Omg nice!!
Thats awesome
sorry for the horrible quality, can you tell if the houses are against the edge here, or if they left a space? its what im using as inspo
hii,, I need some inspiration for river layouts,, I have two south starting rivers and idk where to go w/ them!!
better quality here
Oh wow, so many great pictures here 😍
They are at the edge from what it seems
@craggy bluff what do they look like rn? :)
this is them rn,, I haven’t really touched the rivers at all - I plan to move RC, the stores & museum around but any help is appreciated!
I feel stuck with my island. I try to add a lot of detail, but it also feels cramped together compared to islands I have visited. Half of my island is, and will remain, 'mountainous'. I may be in need of a second opinion.
I don't know where and how to best build my flower area, etc. That part is a bit of a mess.
I'm trying to keep the original layout of the island as much as possible.
tbh that’s how I felt but I just terraformed everything and started again! my island is a mess rn and inspiration is lowww
@craggy bluff imo it might look kinda cool if you added a river going in between the museum and that X path up to your house to make a waterfall unless theres something in those spaces?
I might ty that out ty!
Oh yes, I think that would seem a nice place for a waterfall
wild question but how often do you guys move your houses when decorating your island? I'm trying to move the least possible times
ive moved each of my houses at least 3 times by this point
because im stupid and indecisive
holy shit
haha same here, probably my 4th time now (thanks hedges)
at least 4 times and im mad about it
all those bells youll never get back
the bridges/inclines are the worst lol
I struck gold on turnips this week so bells aren’t really an issue
I moved only once. Originally I intended to move to the island in the middle of the river, but I decided to put the museum there, as I liked having a house close to the beach.
luckily, i minimize the damage by layouting it first and all. but yeah, thanks to the stalk market, bells aren't really an issue.
but just think, thats like 1.5million bells that couldve been used on literally anything else
Is there a fast way to get rid of flowers besides moving builds on them?
yea like 10 kitchen islands @frozen axle or 2000 magazines
the possibilities are endless
only a few items cost over 100K at nook's
look at all these nintendo switches i have
@solemn spruce you could pay a couple people to help you dig em up 🤷♀️
hey ill dig em up if youre tryhing to get rid of roses
wanna start breeding those out soon
tfw flowers are like weeds but worse because you have to dig them up
if you start a bridge/incline project is it possible to cancel it? i started one but i changed my mind about it
yes you can
It's a little bit of everything lol, and they everywhere
but if you've donated alread, you won't get a refund
it’s only possible if you haven’t placed it i think
I’m currently digging up all of my flowers to redesign my island an it’s killing me
oh nvm haha
They need to make it so bridges don’t have to be over just a river
Lawnmower update when
Bruh hahaha @woven drift do you want help?
fire update when
flamethrower when
forget lawnmower I want one of those farmer tract things that farm up entire fields
@timid stream would you? I’d pay you a million bells
HAHAHAHA you don’t have to pay me 😛 if you wanna come help me clean up my island feel free :3
I like the fire idea
If not idc 😛
Sure that sounds like a deal
Sick 😄
yea "burn your whole island down along with Raymond" update when?
This definitely would go a lot faster if there are two or more people working on it
Yeah!!! Let me make an extra shovel and head over 🙂
hard to get a good picture of it but I love the back of my museuem
i wouldnt mind leaving elise in a burning housefire
Love that
she needs to damn leave already
thanks Mothra (also my island tune is the Godzilla battle theme thought you'd like that)
What a cool island theme tho
So im currently working on a botanical garden and im slowly understanding i need 400 million stone
lookin for inspo around villager houses plz
Mine is chocobo atm until I figure out something better
holy shit that's so cute @solemn spruce
@woeful thunder thats my city district
i really wish i could be "done" breeding flowers, so much space wasted on large areas of land for flower breeding rn 😦 especially since TT'ing isn't the way I wanna play the game
@thick tendon same dude
i actually enjoy breeding flowers
I use so much fuckin stone
Ty 
Hey guys any ideas for garden furniture ??
it's always fun to come out in the morning to see which of your flowers chose to throw an unwanted color
it rains Everytime I timeskip so I don't even need to breed
For villagers
Wanna do something with this area but don’t know what
And mile islands seem to give way more clay and iron than stone, it’s infuriating
@woeful thunder and thats peggys farm house
@woeful thunder i'm gonna upload a clip of one of my neighborhoods hold on a second
wow you guys have such cute places, and i'm over here just like.... where the heck should i route my river? where should literally anything go? 😂
Can someone help me with some inspiration? I'm currently terraforming and kinda nervous aha
I also just discovered I can't put trees on the beach 
should i change my pathway to a road
@solemn spruce you don't want palm trees? the coconuts work
aAAAA
i think i might keep it normal but just add a sidewalk
I think a good place to start is to think about what items you have. like say you have a swings slides and picnic stuffs. you can make a park @worn zodiac
Idk if this will help anyone but I made a layout so?? maybe someone can gain some inspo from it im excited to build it !
I do, I'm just trying to move stuff around for terraforming
when you have locations to work on. your terraforming works around that
debating replacing all hardwood trees with cedar trees hmmm
your map is so symmetrical lol
how do people get shrubs fences
Wanted to try and save a few bell trees and bamboo
@woeful thunder
How do I grow trees that aren’t my native fruit
mystery island or get from other people
The current project "The Nook" a club/bar above the nooks cranny
@heady olive I didnt think you could create more openings to the ocean... is that a thing? you added some
no you can't edit river mouths
that's on the designer
thats not her real map i don't think
@timid cipher You can't create river mouths but ,,, I'm def planning to make more rivers aksdfsdk
@heady olive definitely gonna use this for inspiration, veryyyy cool!
I know this isnt an island showcase, but if you were to get rid of any of these villagers, which ones and how many would u get rid of?
ok that's what I assumed
i regret not picking that map lel
@woven drift which map
what have I unlocked reaching five stars aside from lily of the valley and watering can?
It may not be as fancy as everyone else's islands, but it's my home and I love it
I rerolled for 4 hours to get this lol it's pretty much his layout kinda - this is when I first started
@woven drift
tfw residential building is directly in front of airport 😩
yeah i needed something like that lel
part of my bamboo area, the incline came up today
@terse terrace ikr it's so great!
Like my res services is PERFECTLY in front of the airport let's just say I was ... Happy lol
i made my layout before i knew what i could and couldnt do with terraforming so ill have to adjust some of it adksfks
@heady olive we should low-key work on sketching as island together since we have the same layout tbh and idea
@slow dagger hmu!! my dms are open :3
Done
let's get this amazing island
My current layout, any thoughts or ideas? I have my flowers on the left side, beyond the 'market'. But it is messy. Any ideas on how to make it organized without using fences?
I left the geography largely untouched, the largest change is turning the left-most riversource into a lake/waterfall combo, detached from the main river.
Hi, can I get advice on this entrance? My plan was that people have to walk through a path and then enter the townhall + stores like a plaza. The second level are gonna be a garden-esqe place. I’m having problems because the second level covers the plaza awkwardly and the front looks weird since the original looks like an urban area. Going for cottagecore, haha
what do y'all think? stalls in or out? (will be putting street lamp in the corner)
Out<3
This was the layout I had before, then I felt a sudden need to flatten things out again once bushes dropped
@buoyant gate Any ideas for what I could use that walkway space for? or would it be better to just have it open
So I was messing around with terraforming and I made this floral thing I can’t tell if I like it or not I need opinions pls
Yoo that's pretty neat
@green whale idk to be honest but it's a pretty big space so I think you should fill it with something. Maybe atleast some benches
So I was messing around with terraforming and I made this floral thing I can’t tell if I like it or not I need opinions pls
@digital oyster looks sick
I'll test around with benches and maybe boxes with items on top or something
Idk if this will help anyone but I made a layout so?? maybe someone can gain some inspo from it im excited to build it !
@heady olive that is HOT
Does anyone have ideas or examples for how to organize flower beds? I feel like flower breeding has taken over my island lol
It looks great
Cinéma tonight ? 🙂
@dense belfry what film
@dense belfry that’s amazing
I don't know how I feel about this area. I'm going for a cottage-core vibe. What are your opinions or tips?
how do make a pathway appear on the map?
Daniela I finished my entryway!!
@finite cargo aw ok thank youuu
how far apart do you guys normally leave between your houses in order to give them a front garden?
omg it looks so good!!! @scenic blaze
RESPECT THE CHAIR
@woven drift lol I put all of my villagers houses too close and now I can't do anything cute with their yards cause I'm too poor to move their houses😔
I put my villagers in 6x6 plots but I wish I gave them a bit more room
thats what i want to avoid!, i dont know exactly where i want to put my residential area and want to make sure i've got enough space to make the front gardens all individualised
@woven drift lol I put all of my villagers houses too close and now I can't do anything cute with their yards cause I'm too poor to move their houses😔
@buoyant gate you can meve them eventually
I DID IT
Grats!
Congrats!!!
congrats!!
Grats~
Good job!
da iawn (well done in welsh)
I wish in the next update, they add Cliff bridges
Cliff bridges would be incredible
Does anyone have a nice nooks cranny/ able sisters area? I'm looking for ideas
also, cliffs where you don’t need a one space gap of the level below it on the edge, I want a 2 level tall cliff with no ledge lollll
is there a single 'critter limit' or do bugs and fish have their own
And the ability to do something with the fourth level of cliffs. You don't have to place buildings on it. But the ability to get up there, and place plants, or things like windmills would be nice
@faint charm my apparel shop is hidden in a cove. It took about 1.5 acres squared of land
its an acre one square on the map? like A1?
i need flick to come already so i can tank my island rating
is there a single 'critter limit' or do bugs and fish have their own
@frozen axle idk but its 4 fish and 4 bugs on nook mile islands
this is mine, my whole island is a national park with trails type of vibe so idk how well that would fit on your island 😂😂😂
@finite cargo the acre is the square thing
@finite cargo the acre is the square thing
@errant radish looks epic
Ok yes that's what I thought!
5 o’clock music just started yay it’s my fav
What kind of ramps do you guys have leading up to your museum??
My private beach in the making 🌸🏄🏻🌸
hello people
@glass crane yessss I love that!
ankha
So cute!
I want Ankha gone LOL
your villager looks like annette from fe3h
My shopping district as of last night (I moved nooks and haven’t redone it yet so don’t have a new video to provide) https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1253830921792319488?s=21
changing this layout tonight so memorializing with a video :( #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch https://t.co/FYffSCwSqn
the only thing that has made me even think about time travelling is to get annalise gone
My museum area is unfinished but I’m using a stone ramp bc I use those all over my island lolll
@scenic blaze your terraforming looks like a lot of fun to explore
guys finally Naomi is going to move out, i finally get to trade for pekoe
Looks really clean I never even thought about making the cliffs extruded paths
@raven hearth beautiful museum entrance
@burnt minnow it’s sooo much fun but also really fiddly, the reason I moved nooks was bc I couldn’t see behind it once it upgraded. I’m constantly tweaking the terraforming because the behind view is really tough to manage lol
Haha I feel ya! My island is gonna be a never ending project at the rate I change my mind on terraforming haha
At least it’ll give us something to do for a long time lol
The only part of my island I’m actually proud of LOLL
that's incredible
So pretty!!
@glass crane amazing
That looks really pretty!
tfw you need to wait a day to continue terraforming because some randos house is in the way
Meanwhile I slapped down a mountain lake
Mood
Anyone got an enhanced forest that I can visit
Mine will soon be an enchanted forest vibe once I get an unnecessary amount of mushroom lamps LOL
Same
That’s the direction mine is headed too 😂
How many hours has everyone got?
Does anyone want help cleaning thier island. I’ll do it for free
i have 245 Hrs @junior burrow
I’m at 385 😬
350
85 WHAT
120
I have an average of 11.9 hours per day
180 🤷♀️
310 and 33 days
Lol
that’s nearly all of my waking hours
I'm at 405 hours.....
I know someone at 550 hours..
everyone take your hours and divide it by how many days you’ve had the game, that’ll tell you your average amount per day
my average is 11.9 hours LOL
That’s not the average tho bc sometimes I play 24 hours LOL
You think i know when i start playing? xD
I only have a average of 2.41 hours a day
lol
Are you all 5 stars?
I am yes
ok guys so at 2AM i thought of a cool decoration idea, its gonna be a Robot hero roped off like a display and its gonna have a Neon Genesis Evangelion Qr pattern displaying it. its gonna be so cool
I got 5 stars today LOL
This is my layout rn but I rlly wanna repplace everything cuz this is a mess, any ideas where I could put all the villager homes , shops or my house? I would even terraform for new spaces but i rlly have no ideas
And roughly how long did it take to get there.. (hours)
I really like that layout actually. I love the idea of the villagers being scattered all over the island
This is my layout rn but I rlly wanna repplace everything cuz this is a mess, any ideas where I could put all the villager homes , shops or my house? I would even terraform for new spaces but i rlly have no ideas
@void dirge nice, what the top square on the top left?
It’s crazy cus 90 hours for any other games is a LOT but for this game just seems like so little time xD
I’ve had the game for 23 days and I have 275 hours sooo that’s how long it took my to get 5 stars 😂😂😂
A playground but i‘m not rlly happy with the spot @junior burrow
around 2.5 hrs per day on average
I‘m not rlly happy with anything tbh, wish I was more creative
wow I am a psycho
I really like that layout actually. I love the idea of the villagers being scattered all over the island
@scenic blaze I agree, there isn’t much to put everywhere, so with the houses together it often looks tooo empty and there is only a certain amount of cafes and diners you can have.
A playground but i‘m not rlly happy with the spot @junior burrow
@void dirge nice
My island naturally has a circle in the middle with lakes around and it’s on two levels there are a bit close but I think it’s fine
Also f in the chat for Redd’s ship being right behind my house LOL
@glass crane I have bones too!
I'll be spreading my villagers out too. Right now, I am focusing on the town square. Which is basically The marketplace and townsquare. Along with Atypical ammenities. No park, no bamboo garden. But there's a decorative pond, and a courtyard for the townhall.
make sure to lock your door with Redd around. being the closest target and all.
Don't worry. He's no longer Crazy Redd. So he's not going to be crazy enough break into your home
Just got three stars on my wreck of an island...
Afterall... you might have a room full of 'rantulas
HAHAHAHAH
@errant swift Wtf is going on with that house clustering
My very bad ability to space my stuff right
LOL
I want to create some statue themed area next to the museum.not sure what to put around or in between.any ideas?
for sable 🤍-inspired from post on reddit
I gotta find some angel statues, and just... surround a phone booth with it in some hidden alcove
I obviously have the best flower layout...
I have the same river spots as her, wondering if I should also do what she did and just forget about a free running river
What do you guys think of my layout? (:
so symmetrical and stright
@brisk vapor looks really good
@glass crane imo the spreadout look is way better than the cluttered together neighborhood vibe
Thanks! Spent 200 hours
@junior wedge this looks kinda messy to me tbh.its not bad.but not ideal
I got you beat, I am farming the s*** out of blue
If youre going for wreck of an island, im beating u in that department dana
Haha
does anyone have any natural forest themed island inspiration pics/tours?? looking to make more of a rural woodland theme
Heres my flower spot, and look at my minimap to see my expert skills
i got the perfect thing for you @woeful minnow !
@woeful minnow Look up further in this chat. There were some pictures last night. I am currently working on a rural theme, myself
@woeful minnow this is my fave forest island https://youtu.be/b1e-OskUdpQ
This 5 Star Island in Animal Crossing New Horizons, has been switch news lately, as one of the best new animal crossing islands and most beautiful! Zach has an Animal Crossing Island Tour for this 5 Star Island in New Horizons along with some of the Animal Crossing Tips and t...
ok will do!! and 👀, i'll definitely check it out ty!
Well... small town anyways. One big area for trading with other players and to act as my vestibule, so it's not ugly. That area is like a country town's town square. And then everything else is rural and forest
ok will do!! and 👀, i'll definitely check it out ty!
@woeful minnow i got 90% of my ideas from that island lmao
Can someone send me their garden layouts for inspiration? like with all 8 flowers and colours or something along those lines ! I keep going back and forth with mine and giving myself a headache
Oooh
@woven drift ty but i didnt ask for suggestions or opinions lmao 😭
I wish there was more fountains, in NL there was a few. They should add topiaires too it would be nice for gardens
PSA: fences can also make good little gates for protecting your flowers. that is all
PSA: fences can also make good little gates for protecting your flowers. that is all
@light pumice thats a nice detail there!gj
My design skills are too good
I wish we had the flower clock
Anyone have any advice? I knocked down all my cliffs, rivers, etc and started fresh and now my rivers and cliffs look stupid. Also any advice for optimal/aesthetic placement of villager houses? I like them being in small groups of 2-3 with cute yards. Don't know if my question really makes much sense but I'm just at a loss here. (Basically asking about how to make cliffs and rivers look better and how to find good spots for small neighborhood-esque houses.)
anyone have suggestions on how to make my river less boring? It’s only like that because of the river mouths
Bobville 
@severe parcel make the corners less edgy if you know what I mean y that
@heady olive what did you use to make that layout??
Yeah I getcha, my island is like a grid because of the river I was never good at making pathways
My rule for myself for rivers is to never have a harsh edge
and to make the width vary
Anybody need a self esteem boost about their island skills
same willow
but it really depends if you want a natural looking river or one that would be in a city like the LA river or something lollll
There’s not 1 creative cell in my head
i just copy other people's ideas and mash them together
@brisk vapor your island looks like an exact rip off of Katyv4's island Eldia on youtube.
I just make my ideal home
Update #2 would finally say I’m 50% done with layout, getting the entire left side to the 2nd layer was annoying but now that it’s done I’m ready to make the residential area
Epic neighborhood featuring violet the prisoner
Opinions?
i need some opinions on choosing a new island. ok i need ya opinion. i think i like the top right since it lines up with the airport, the bottom right because it has a looping lake and the bottom left since it also lines up with the airport and looks cool
@nimble flax yes exactly, i’m copying everything from furniture to villager.
Can I see your outdoor diner/cafe areas please? I need some new inspiration 
that sucks all of the res services are close to the airport
I’d 100% do top right, looks like you could make some sick layouts with it
I'd do bottom right
i like bottom left
what bridge should i place here :<
I’d do bottom left
Finished setting this up last night. I’ve got another group of 4 at the top but I have to move one for the secret beach :/
Stone bridge
bottom left looks nice :)
There’s also normally a fountain there
Im an expert of placement and somehow i have a 3 star
I made this area last night, something feels unbalanced/off but idk what it is
bottom left it is. thank you all. my previous island was one hell of a hot mess
The straight line river?
Thank you!!
Does anyone have a cafe layout in their island to give me a little inspiration? 🙈
@patent sky Probably because the path is only one wide, and is solid despite going through what looks like a chaotic and irregular environment
@reef timber the bottom right was the island I chose 😂😂😂😂
@patent sky the shape of the lake kind of imitates the shape of the empty space, I might fill the land in on the bottom left of the lake and swoop it a few block closer to the path on the bottom right instead
Progress on my house area,, kinda happy with how its turning out, a lot to place still but yeah
Does this look like a good start to a town hall area? (ignore the river I'll change it)
I must make it look more flashy like im bill gates
It'd be really cute if instead of just waving at each other, you could hear villagers talking to each other omg
Hi does anyone have any zelda related thing on their island? I need help aha I want to build a triforce pond but I'm not sure how thatll turn out
There's a dude that made hyrule of link to the past
@frail saffron where would you put the last two villager houses in this layout?
When you decerate your island island the way you like it and Isabelle says it lacks appealing scenery
Everyone else seems to have a little bit of a ton of themes on their islands but mine is gonna be 100% mountain woodsy themed
@coral cloak yeah, I wanted to make something like links awakening or wind waker but I just wanted to make my own little island
is happy island designer working rn
@scenic blaze I'm replacing all the hardwood trees in my main shops area with cedars so hopefully it looks good!
Phlat
@finite cargo oooo have fun
I'm making my layout rn aaaa kinda spooked
Hey where do you guys put fencing? I have a 4 star island and Isabelle says I need more fencing. I already have gardens that are fenced off and I'm not really sure where do put more fences. I put some along the paths I've made but I hate how it looks. And I don't really want fences around my neighbors houses either.
@scenic blaze I think you're right about the shape of the water, it's actually supposed to be like a natural onsen but you can't see it super well from the angle, but yeah now I see that it could stand being moved a bit
Elias I might move the housing up further if I were you, that seems pretty cramped
okay ill check that out ty!
Also - if I remove fencing after achieving 5 stars will my rating go down?
I should've planned for it before I started placing houses 😩
It's just built hard into the cliff so I'll have to play w it today, the area is also an intersection of sorts so it's kinda awkward in general lol
your rating can go down again yes. just depends what you do
I just kind of put fencing everywhere LOL
@sick beacon you can always move them
yea I'm planning on it but its p costly to move them all 😭
also you could maybe put fencing around a café area or like a part or smth? If you have any !
just sell NMT i think they are going for 100k per
@glass crane do you have pics for inspiration or anything? Idk I guess I'm not a big fan of putting up fences around anything except flower gardens haha
finally got kk on my island so focusing on making it nice and pretty now all of your guys' islands are awesome
Yeah I put fences around the big park that I made & like 5 different flower gardens but noooo that's not enough for Isabelle LOL and I put some around my outdoor crafting area...smh
@coral cloak the path has to be solid unfortunately to avoid complete and utter flower chaos 😂
@sick beacon or trading your native fruit for other people's native fruit so you can make a profit
@patent sky Try using a custom path then with transparency 😛
@sick beacon if you need help I could buy your NMTs for 125k ea just let me know 🙂
Pretzel fence
@woven drift I add random fences here and there, this is an example:
Also... does anyone know what song Freya has in her house? I can't get to the stereo.
Love those waterfalls
you can put fences behind your cliffs so you don’t see them!
that looks nice! @scenic blaze @glass crane tysm I'll use your pics as motivation. I think I don't like how my fences are placed because I put them all in an order...I think if I space it out and make it seems a little more natural I can make it look the way I want
thats really cute 😳
Wow thats gorgeous willow 🥺
More stone fence ft. KK LOL
OMG @glass grove that's genius I'll put fencing on the cliff where redd's boat is HAHA
thanks guys 🥺🥺🥺🥰
man long pathways really give off such a nice vibe
@woven drift sure!! Here’s another example with the stone fence (top level) that fits nicely with a natural theme
Does anyone have some Museum with waterfalls ideas?
ty guys <3<£
mothra that’s so cute
thats adorable!
Anyone with campsite area ideas ? 🙂
can someone help me pick a flower to use along these log stakes 😔 the pink roses are too pink but the pink on the hyacinths doesn’t seem to match
also for a more tropical vibe these fences are good
the pink roses seem too pink so idk if i should just do whites or something
I forget what they’re called lol
Thank you!! I have more pics of this area in this tweet, it’s my airport entrance https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1254063189702004737?s=21
my campsite just looks super natural
man yall make me wanna redo my entire island
gotta stick to that cottagecore vibe doe ughh i love tropical islands too tho😔
dude i swear to god, the person who is the lead designer of this game had some damn screws loose, WHY THE HELL CAN I SWEEP OFF CUSTOM PATHS WHEN NOT IN DESIGNER MODE HOLY CRAP!\
Ronan 😍
@woven drift I like the pink roses! maybe if you add more pink stuff it’ll balance out better
thanks so much! love the way that the random fencing looks (i didn't think i would!)
LOL TENDO I FELT THAT IN MY SOUL
honest to god
i literally try to pick something off the ground and i sweep my asphalt away and have to turn on designer mode
i love pink hyacinths
Idk why but pretzel fence is hilarious to me 😂😂
idk just like pink decor furniture stuff LOL
like was this dude on a crack binge when he made these design decisions?
THEY’RE ALL PASTEL PINK ALWMWKWLKEFE
I do like the pink hyacinths but I get how they’re a different shade of pink compared to the bushes
Yes pastel pinks r great
you dont have to turn on designer mode, you can put down the custom path through the nook phone custom designs app
i used tree stumps as decorations for my campsite, is it like too much orrr
Except pink tulips i hate pink tulips
I digged them all out cuz they’re so ugly
literally don’t know wtf to do with the flowers here
@north saddle im saying the fact that you can accidentally sweep your pattern away off the ground when not in designer mode
nothing seems to MATCH
@tawny glacier They need to add an update that makes the custom paths used in the designer permanent, but others placed down be able to be kicked away
I like it!! @livid pilot maybe mix both the tree stumps and wood stools to give it some variety
Agreed
cute! My villagers love to sit on tree stumps 😄
yeah that one is annoying considering i dont use any of the actual paths as well
@steel junco honestly, i hate how the custom path saves work, its so limiting. you save over an old pattern and it replaces the pattern
@woven drift maybe try mixing the flower type. white roses and pink hyacinths?
yess
@steel junco honestly, i hate how the custom path saves work, its so limiting. you save over an old pattern and it replaces the pattern
@tawny glacier unfortunately I don’t think that much will ever change. Maybe the next game
I need a ton of different flower hybrids all I have are tulips and cosmos lol
wait are those just full on shrubs and not the hedges
should i do white pink white pink or keep it jow i have
in 20 years @steel junco
More fence ideas just make a garden 😂😂😂😂
I wana get some opinions as ive just earned 5 stars and wanna make my island worth that. I dont wanna flood this with a bunch of images, so if anyone wants to help can you DM me?
lmao that looks expensive
Tendo you dont need to go back into designer mode you can just place the path down from the designs app
i used tree stumps as decorations for my campsite, is it like too much orrr
@livid pilot alternate cedar and pine tree stumps?
@trim tapir still doesn't make it any less annoying
u right
why is that an option in the first place anyway
yes I agree tendo
i question alot of the dumb designs in this game
it’s annoying
Anyone know any good flowers to match a kind of warm/cottagecore themed island? 😌
the good additions are heavily outweighed by the bad
ughhhhh
turnips
I want cliffs that don’t require a one square gap edge
well its animal crossing, being scuffed is part of the name
i feel the pain, i made a whole basketball court design from scratch and i try to pick up the basketball and i just remove part of it
or actually making terraforming fun
Slushie i use cosmos, tulips and hyacinths mainly, i mainly cover it in white but add in yellows and pinks
@glass crane same
that would be a killer design change
i have this part of my island btw, its rlly nothing but i mean it took a long time
ty train!
like I don’t care if I can’t climb a ladder to the top, I want a 3 tall cliff that is just straight cliff and no ledges
Lmao
@glass crane preach
If I’m gonna make a canyon I want it to FEEL LIKE A CANYON
im CRYINF I CANT FIND ANYTHINGT O MATCH
No
does this even work
It looks great wymm
the pretzel-looking fences are called Country fences and they require 6 hardwood for 10 fences
isnt there white wooden fences, or am i just dreaming
There are unfortunately not Ronan
ur dreaming 😔
if there were white fences it would solve all my problems
@glass crane could you make me some I don’t have the diy recipe yet
I’ll give the mats also
no in the trailer there were white simple wooden fences but there aren't any in the game
idk why white picket fences don’t exist
They would look pretty
yeah i swear i saw white wooden fences somewhere
+1 Dumb design decision
@woven drift i could make u some
They were in a pre-release trailer
LOL
@woven drift willow is gonna make me some
Bruh
oh shit
its still a dream
whaaat
Where tf are they then
hello
bro i-
idk why they cut them from the game
those white fences are so pretty
Omg “pretzel fences” should be a real thing. Make food related furniture and fences! A candy land island would be super cute
hopefully a later update theyll bring em back
THOSE LOOK SO NICE
man good thing i remember those
Tbh the hedge stuff is nice and all but id rather get white fences
Slushie I can't tag you for some reason but I tried to do that outside beau's house w the flowers
I NEED THE MUSHROOMS REEEE
fall
aghhhh I want mushroom lamps so badly they would completely transform my island
people sell them for so much nmt
but i dont want to time travel
I’ve been looking for them everywhere but everyone overprices them
but i managed to get mine for a cheap price
wait for fall
Hi, If we are 2 real players in the island, how many animal inhabitants can I have ?
Uhmmmm
10
i need ideas for decorating around my residential office
Im in south hemi so eventually ill start getting the recipe from the balloons next month
Does anyone have the layout guides?
ANIMAL INHABITANTS DHKSHD
My friend is in SH and time travelled a bit to get the recipe
You can’t trade for them with a Southern Hemisphere person?
@misty lion you still get 10 like everyone else
ah yes, i too have animal inhabitants in my deserted island zoo
Yeah im thinking of time travelling
Can someome let me visit their island to just explore im so bored
Also I'm hoping in the future they'll introduce customization to fences, mayge they're gonna put a dumb mechanic like paint specifically for fences lol
GENERAL KENOBI
Right @patent sky
what’s the fastest way to kick a villager cause the guide they have pinned only works 1/10 tries and im getting mad 
Time travel
okay gay nutblaster @versed crag
STOP SENDING THOSE TENOR GIFS THEY MAKE MY MUSIC STOP PLAYING EVERYTIME I SEE IT bc my phone thinks it has sound and pauses my music
The method i do is time travel 15 days forward
minus amiibo bc im broke and not paying $100 for a laminated card
tt has never worked for me. I've tt'd months ahead and no one moves
LOL
Can u plant a shrub in front of a river
tt has never worked for me. I've tt'd months ahead and no one moves
@finite cargo for REAL
Yes shadow
Ty
sorry but amiibo is the only 100% guaranteed method. All else is rng
Ikr
yo te pue de ler qe stan disciendo
Like whats the point omg...
like lemme make a floating one square island with a singular tree on it smfh
oh my
why aren’t these growing
olvidalo
this game hurts my feelings more everyday
not enough space
how
Art a if you move them, let them grow, then move them back it should be fine
trees have safe space uwu
when trees have a personal space bubble
Hey guys, the museum is 7x4, but the upgraded one is still the same?
Yep
reading this chat makes me realize how flawed the game is
Lol
There are a lot of details that just make me 😡😡😡😡😡
i just accepted it, but to see other people complain about the same stuff brings out something inside of me
@terse terrace PREACH
Lmao
Thank you @glass crane !
Savior kim
so many good design decisions and so many absolutely nonsensical ones
there’s no reason a tree should have social anxiety
@glass crane YOUR ISLAND IS SO PRETTY AGGGG
like pls let me plant where i please
Ywwwww
i was so happy about multiplayer, i was thinking itd be like stardew valley or minecraft where you can build shit with your friends
I wana get some opinions as ive just earned 5 stars and wanna make my island worth that. I dont wanna flood this with a bunch of images, so if anyone wants to help can you DM me?
nah man.... nah
Like even if I could only do it when best friends are over would be better
why isn’t it like new leaf where you could visit mystery island with friends and okay mini games n shit 
AHHHHHHHH!!!!!
LMFAO
like multiplayer is fine ig but there’s not much you can do anymore
Me whenI get 5 stars by filling my island with junk
LMFAOOOOO
SQUARE
IM GONNA HIT SOMEONE
Anyone know what these exact stone paths are? Or if there's more pics to this island?

#.island-layouts more like #i-hate-this-game
the cherry blossom trees def help. i wish they were all year round
^
pink tulips are beautiful how dare you
now pansies, those are ugly
people are raging about getting raymond and were just argueing about flower types
i feel like no person would ever be satisfied with any game no matter how good it is
i hate mums and they’re my native flower
including me lol
they’re hideous
my friend was so lucky. got roses AND peach as her native
im super stuck on what to do! i just don’t know about the rivers because they take up a lot of soace so there isn’t much space to decorate, any ideas? i’m gonna do the thing in the back but i’m gonna make it a little bit smaller but please i need help
WOW
lillies are my native, i miss my old islands native roses
i hate her
Pink tulips r disgusting
🥺👉🏼👈🏼 hi I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out a good island layout
Wheres your river mouths?
i just wanna cover my entire island with hyacinths and mums
@stable temple what anime is that Pfp from., it seems familiar
Bunny smth
bunny senpai
@north saddle I did that already and Deeply regret it it please don’t
hyacinths best pink flower
i think those would look great with my theme though
Use rivers as decoration !
Hyacinths r so pretty i have a lor
i love blue hyacinths. so pretty
Hyacinths r just pretty in general best flower
both of them give of like, a soft fluffy feeling
Speaking of I finally banished the spooky face from my map lol
i like purple roses but have no clue where to put them they don’t match anything on my island
@woven drift I realized the same thing yesterday and I'm heartbroken lol
I have soooooo many cedar trees I can't wait for christmas and snow my island will be so pretty
My native are cosmos
ikr 🥺
That moment when ur in aus so in christmas it will be summer
And after june its gonna be winter for me lmao
imagine if they implement more tree types in the future
my island generated me a lake that looked like a ballsack, im sad i have to erase it
the fact bridges snap to individual squares makes me angry
Make mad tickets selling winter items bc people forget Australia exists
I'd still have all cedars lmao
oh man im gonna have to rip my entire island in half
My meadow is coming together
LMAOO @patent sky
Omg cuteeee
PERFECTLY LINED UP BUT THE BRODGE WOULD BE UNEVEN
Yep artza
SO MAD
f
Omg
i have some problem on my island
throw symmetry out the window
Land bridge ftw
maybe make 2 inclines on the sides instead of one down the middle
I built a diagonal bridge to the museum @woven drift
the bridge wouldn’t fiT
Or one horizontal incline
Movie theater 👻
And move it to to the left or right
And used two inclines at the sides of the entrance with 3 spaces in between it’s just nice
Is this too cluttered? Left with dirt or right without? Accidentally left too little space in between everything 🥺
And 1 row of flowers in the middle makes it impossible to make the rounded entrance to the houses
@spring bison ohhhh thats awesome, i wanted to make a theator but didnt know how to go about it, thank you
This is why I’m happy I made my island more natural nation park vibes bc symmetry doesn’t matter when all ur paths are trail-vibez
@frail geyser I like it! Maybe move each garden lantern one space closer to the house?
Like swap the shrub with the light
hehehehehe ty lolll
ngl symmetrical islands dont look as good
Im thinking of redoing it AGAIN DHSKHDD
HAHAHAHA
Soooo willow when do I get to visit and be jealous
Its finally coming together but
@terse terrace youre welcome, i struggled to figure out ways to make the walls..trees and hedges work perfect though
Nah i wont redo it ill hold back😔
guys i managed to get my hands on pekoe and her house is gonna be dope
The vibez
gonna look sick
I'm about to demolish my markets just bc the frame drop is unreal
thats so cute willow
@kim simple panels for the screen abd curtains
im reading this chat while digging up flowers and weeds from my entire island 
If anyone has any natural islands please let me visit lmao i love them
I'm really struggling with what to do with my town and how to lay it out
Like ??? Why does this cause so much stress to render? I know lamps are a b*tch but this is what happens when you render in times
what typa theme do u like
@train mine is natural but a lot still needs finished
Oo cool
I need help y’all 😔 Anyone have a good design for 5 villagers as neighbors?
I’ve Been wanting to visit ur island too @woven drift
Nature
lemme visit yo island first ma😔✊🏽
ok willows island makes me want to delete everything and start over 
@woven drift have you been to mine yet?
Still working to get my 5* 😦
nah
@patent sky oh shit thats nice
can y’all provide me with some ideas of how to layout my villager houses pls 🥺👉👈
@glass crane do you have the code for the dark wood used on top of the dark dirt?
hey everyone! trying to decide if i should move the river left to have it border the neighborhood or do something with that space
Lulubells that’s so epic
Does anyone know if u can have a house directly next river or cliff?
Does anyone have 5 star island layouts they could show me? I need some ideas
Time to deal with my flower dump 😔
@finite cargo yes I made it lemme upload it to the kiosk LOL
@pearl palm my guy, why not have a nice city right near your town hall, you have the perfect airport and tons of space
@pearl palm If it were my island I’d move it to border the houses.
WHY IS IT DELETING MY MESSAGES
so move it left and use the space i gain on the right side of the river to do stuff? @tawny glacier
PEN
probs saying something banned
can i tour anyones city island? trying to figure out what aesthetic i want to do for my island
@pearl palm you could make a killer city with all that space, no keep the river, and make the right side near your town hall be a city, connect your shops near the town hall and make some nice housing areas
p e n
have the housing on town hall side of the river?
i like your current housing set up personally
@pearl palm yeah keep your town hall where it is , and try and add some better rivers and some mountains in the back
@tame bloom i have the same problem
its very barren
Anyone have a spread for 5 villagers?
🥊🥊😜
can someone give me ideas on what to put on these cliff things
I love those mushrooms sm
yeah it was just a basic plan, not sure what i'm doing with that space yet. i kinda like the idea of a big neighborhood area
for the people asking I made all of the floor custom designs I have on my island (except the tiny pink flowers lol) I’ll send the codes once I can get on the kiosk after people leave 😂
😭😭😭
Like I’m tryna do 4 villagers as neighbors. 5 as neighbors and Goldie will be my next door.
if u can get floor lights add them too!!
@woven drift When in doubt, use flowers.
LMAO
@woven drift robot heros 😎
I put a shit load of clutter on cliffs
anyone available to do a city touring? im looking for inspiration on how to set my island up
yea if you dont have 40 robot heros lined up somewhere, its not good enough
LMFAO
I want MUSH LAMP
kim girl what did u do😭
omg found it on twitter it is so pretty!!! 😅
https://twitter.com/neko10noshima/status/1253982312074625024?s=20
Why doesnt this feel like a city ufufufu...
So I been making signs for when I finally get that signpost DIY. Just for some world building.
Since the museum is in front of Redd’s beach I made a sketchy looking sign that Redd drew over
LOVE THATT
THATS SO CUTE
@woven drift godzilla and robot hahaha
@woven drift imagine them flying into the island, and walking down your entrance only to have them see robots staring down atyour villagers like the inferior beings they are
cUTE
@woven drift imagine them flying into the island, and walking down your entrance only to have them see robots staring down atyour villagers like the inferior beings they are
@tawny glacier you need to be arrested immediately
No
Imagine being rich enough to make Robot Hero
Haha I have a random decoy duck hanging off the cliff not captured
you know its cool
STOP
do you have that stone qr?
Can anyone let me see their town for inspiration???
i bet you are making a robot hero right now because my idea was so cool @woven drift
yea im going to turn my island into that city from evangelion
yes im definitely making a rObOt HeRo
Y’all, what could I add to a nature trail besides trees flowers and weeds?
@woven drift denial is the first step towards acceptance, i understand
im going to make robots go pew pew and on the ground somewhere its shinji bleeding to death with raymond by his side
GO AWAY
ok, well when you come to my island and see my COOL robots, you will be jealous
will i?
yes
word ?
okay bet
