island-designs

[dusk spoke]

Whoa

[cerulean belfry]

Some people hate TT but these mush were so worth it.

[tawny glacier]

@sturdy girder some people really want a villager, if they are gonna pay im gonna take it. money makes the world in this game go round and im not gonna be a charity worker giving everything out for free

[manic lantern]

Hey guys can I get your guys opinion on my dining section please

[sick egret]

He calls me V-chan

[dusk spoke]

That’s cool as hell @woven drift

Time travel isn’t cheating imo, just a means to an end

[dapper ginkgo]

^^

[little wave]

so animal crossing I get to be a different dude, so I'm a capitalist pig

[tawny glacier]

@sturdy girder economics work the same in a game as real life, thats how its always worked with online trading

[terse terrace]

@sturdy girder dude i have 170 nmt from selling villagers, they stack up and i can get a villager i want
if you do trading with players, even with flowers or diys, you easily get nmt
it is not unreasonable and if you still think its scamming, youre just wrong

[manic lantern]

@woven drift yeah 11/10 that design Is just insanely beautiful

[hidden gyro]

I'm envious of your mushrooms🥺🥺🥺💕💕💕

[woven drift]

Thnx~ !

[sick egret]

Mushrooooms

So cute

[dusk spoke]

This game is a microcosm of real life as far as capitalism is concerned I won’t lie lmao

[tardy wren]

hey how do yall make your islands feel big?? whenever i visit someones island it feels massive compared to mine

[sick egret]

Lmao Tom nook is capitalism

[hidden gyro]

I suck at flowers irl and in game. I wish I was great like you guys. Taking me 2 weeks to hybrid the amount of mums I want

[opal flicker]

play the game how you wanna play it, as long as it doesnt cause damage then there isnt a reason to comment on it

[cerulean belfry]

I’ve decided to not rly use flowers in my island design ^^^^

[tawny glacier]

@hidden gyro alot of us time travel for hybrids

[sturdy girder]

@tawny glacier I understand selling thing that you can actually buy in the game like furniture and stuff, but villagers ? Thats where the whole trading thing get crazy, a villagers, even the cutest one don’t seems worth so much bells/NMT

[hidden gyro]

@tardy wren people are just so great at creating island flow! I feel the same!

[dusk spoke]

Time travel to a rainy day and back again. Then back to the rainy day. Repeat that, they grow real quick.
@hidden gyro

[sturdy girder]

Its all my opinion, not trying to convince, just trying to understand yours

[hidden gyro]

I figured @tawny glacier but it's okay me and my flowers just... chilling... I'll get all the flowers I want in 2 months💀😂

[opal flicker]

@sturdy girder you value at what you want to value at, we will value stuff how we want to value stuff

[cerulean belfry]

Those bush starts on the other hand...

[wicked cloak]

anyone wanna show off their shop areas? i need inspiration idk what to do with my cranny ahh

[opal flicker]

its as simple as that

[dusk spoke]

Ngl I don’t like shrubs

[woven drift]

Cluttered or not?

[silver plover]

@tardy wren i agree, mine feels tiny compared to any others

[hidden gyro]

@dusk spoke jokes on you it's been raining every day on my island for a week💀😂🙃💔

[opal flicker]

@woven drift a tiny bit

[woven drift]

looks perfect @woven drift

Shopping area

[dusk spoke]

@wicked cloak I had a friend turn Nooks Cranny into a gas station.

[sturdy girder]

@opal flicker Of course, not judging, just trying to discuss the subject

[opal flicker]

yea fair enough

people just have different views on everything and its totally fine to spend as much as you want on a villager

[silver plover]

@sturdy girder I agree with you, I don't understand why people charge so much.

[manic lantern]

Attack on Dine-In

[graceful quiver]

@sturdy girder I agree with you, I don't understand why people charge so much.
@silver plover takes time to do

[hidden gyro]

Mushrooms are a seasonal item unless I tt or trade right?

[cerulean belfry]

@hidden gyro Im with you I just grab any flowers I see idc what kind it is. Hence my odd combinations

[wicked cloak]

@dusk spoke thats a pretty cool idea ooh

[woven drift]

Ngl I feel bad for all the people who are starting the game and can't afford anything, so I'm happy this discord now has channels where people can do stuff for free because then it's more fair

[brisk minnow]

:00 pretty

[opal flicker]

i would personally never trade to find a villager, I only like to find them on islands heh. (think this comes from me being a shiny huter in pokemon idk...)

[tawny glacier]

@silver plover the thing is, when you are really into trading 100NMT is not alot, you can get 30NMT for selling a decent DIY lol. but if you dont think people should spend that much on villagers then do wat u want my dude.

[woven drift]

What to add here (I'll close the wall no probs)

[hidden gyro]

Awww that looks cohesive though! @cerulean belfry

[woven drift]

But let's not lie to ourselves the economy is hella inflated 🤣

[potent barn]

Gotta stay healthy on island life!

[sturdy girder]

@opal flicker Probably because this allow way more ways to make money outside of the « game system », like I see people with billions of bells, and most them TT and sells villagers and make entry fees

[cerulean belfry]

Ty @hidden gyro

[graceful quiver]

Ngl I feel bad for all the people who are starting the game and can't afford anything, so I'm happy this discord now has channels where people can do stuff for free because then it's more fair
@woven drift but if ure just starting, u wouldnt be looking to buy stuff w funds u dont have

[opal flicker]

yeah

[sturdy girder]

While I barely have 1 Million because I only sell fruits 😭

[brisk minnow]

yeah,, I like having to find the villagers I want. I don’t wanna just buy them off someone right off the bat- I’ve been looking for pietro for ages lmao

[woven drift]

Stalk market

[terse terrace]

tbh its not bad playing the game without trading with players, some people really do play at their own pace and have fun

[tawny glacier]

@sturdy girder see, if you had entry fees you might have money lol

it helps quite alot

[weary lichen]

☠️

[opal flicker]

this game really turning into a gacha game

[tawny glacier]

Gacha games fire asf ngl

[terse terrace]

☠️

[sturdy girder]

@tawny glacier yeah but I don’t want to do that, I prefer letting people come by

[weary lichen]

🚨

[graceful quiver]

tips are a thing

like u can be open and still make shit off people who have the funds

[tawny glacier]

@sturdy girder stay broke den 🤷‍♂️

[cerulean belfry]

Does anyone else use these stupid raccoons as bartenders?

[silver plover]

@tawny glacier people can do whatever they want, I just personally don't get why they ask for so much

[woven drift]

Optional tipping > mandatory tipping

[sturdy girder]

@tawny glacier not playing for the money, playins for watering my flowers and being happy when I found one cute furniture

[hidden gyro]

@woven drift I can't stop looking at your island!! So beautiful. That's how I'm trying to get one of my areas looking 😭💕

[sturdy girder]

@tawny glacier not trying to be rich dont worry

[woven drift]

People usually tip anyways if it's optional but it's good for people who can't as well

Best of both worlds

[graceful quiver]

Optional tipping > mandatory tipping
@woven drift if tipping is mandatory, then its not tipping, its a fee

[opal flicker]

if you play with friends who havent been introduced to this server they will just give you bells or items like true friends

[tawny glacier]

i gave my friend 300NMT when i reset my old island lol,

[woven drift]

@hidden gyro

True, my friend gave me a katana for free the other day and I was like bruh you can sell this for so much lol

[sturdy girder]

@woven drift Thats right, got a lots of tips that I didnt requested and most them were good stuffs

[dusk spoke]

I mean I’ve charged people to visit a crafting villager, or a villager who was moving out, but never at a price that I wouldn’t have paid myself

[opal flicker]

i only charge on something that is the normallity

[tawny glacier]

@dusk spoke see, i normally dont do the entry fees for crafting or even bother with it at all unless its a really nice DIY i know people will want

[plain lark]

does anyone have good inspo for a shopping plaza area? rearranging my island and having difficulty thinking of anything :')

[sturdy girder]

@dusk spoke yeah not everybody is doing that

[dusk spoke]

I did that with gold screen wall mainly

[opal flicker]

i really wish glass partitions were in this game...

[dusk spoke]

Well yeah, I’m not very wealthy in game so I’m not gonna gouge folks

[hidden gyro]

I joined this discord 2 days ago trying to do an entry fee like my friends are doing and I ended up only taking in one stranger and star gazing with them😬 I am not cut out for the ruthless life

[patent sky]

I'm going crazy because my wATER TOOL WONT HIT WHAT I WANT

[tawny glacier]

@patent sky that gold watering can is OP, you can literally water like 15 plants at once lol

[terse terrace]

mfw i build and destroy the same cliff 5 times

[versed depot]

Lol when you miss and then have to do three other actions to fix it

[silver plover]

But what is the point of getting so many bells? I honestly don't get it...I have my loan paid off, bought the crown, what else am I gonna need millions for? Am I missing something?

[hidden gyro]

Oh that's frustration for sure lol.

[patent sky]

@plain lark

[terse terrace]

when youre relocating houses like 20 times @silver plover

that costs millions

[patent sky]

^^

[scenic blaze]

@patent sky me 100% of my life

[dusk spoke]

Buying cool furniture to make your house cool

Oh true

[patent sky]

ALWAYS USE CUSTOM PATTERN TOOL TO LAY OUT BUILDING POSITION

[tawny glacier]

@silver plover you sound like you are new, when you need to start decorating and dont have furniture and need to catalog others furniture you will understand

[heady dew]

Anyone have any ideas for a black/dark themed island?

[tawny glacier]

buying a Kimono stand off of Nook shopping costs 200k for one kimono

[sturdy girder]

@silver plover depends your playthrough, some people want a ton of furnitures and some doesnt

[tawny glacier]

an arcade machine costs 50k bells each

[versed depot]

If you don't time travel money is not an issue.

[bold mirage]

I got a kimono stand from a balloon.

[plain lark]

very pretty!! thanks a bunch

[sturdy girder]

Seems like all the japanese furnitures cost a lot

[bold vale]

anyone have some beach inspo?

[opal flicker]

god elaborate kimono stands

[patent sky]

@tawny glacier ikr I hoard gold solely for the watering can

[sturdy girder]

Thanks god I dont want them

[opal flicker]

so annoying to get all of them, people charger 5mil each

[woven drift]

I Need to put flowers more but where

[dusk spoke]

Elaborate kimono stands are overrated send tweet

[silver plover]

I like to try to complete my catalog and all but I don't rush to do it

[opal flicker]

i have the wisteria one bc it was in my shop so I was glad

[silver plover]

I got a kimono stand from a balloon, didn't realize it's that valuable haha

[sturdy girder]

@silver plover same, played for many years on New Leaf before completing everyhting

[tawny glacier]

Alot of furniture in this game is super expensive, so by the time you go to decorate and you dont have any cool furniture, you are gonna want to catalog. and boom. you have no NMT to spend and you get no furniture. (based on a true story)

[opal flicker]

is it an "elaborate kimono stand"

[dusk spoke]

@bold vale put palm tree lamps on your beach

[woven drift]

Why are you guys talking about anything but layouts

I cataloged them all but I don't know where I should put them

!

[opal flicker]

if its just a kimono stand its not worth much

[tawny glacier]

im talking the elaborate ones

[sturdy girder]

200k is pretty easy to get

[terse terrace]

because were a cool group of players who are laidback

[patent sky]

@woven drift welcome to map chat on weekends lol

[scenic blaze]

reeeee

[woven drift]

I came here for layouts I stayed for the convo

I can order 5 220k elaborate kimonos. I git all colors. I ask for lots of stone stacks in return

[sturdy girder]

You basically got 2 millions bells each weeks with a full turnip inventory

[cerulean belfry]

@bold vale just do this but in real sand 😅

[opal flicker]

bc this is where the cool kids are 😎

[terse terrace]

soemtimes talking about layouts enrages me
i keep that to myself

[tawny glacier]

yeah, but you are gonna need tons of furniture to get a 5 star and plenty of it is expensive, and if you are selling only fruit and giving everything for free you wont be able to afford much

[brisk minnow]

same lmao,, I was looking for ideas 10 minutes ago

[woven drift]

My perfect layout is mess...

Dude I barely spent anything making it to 5 stars

Currently I'm spending about 1000 stones a week though fml

[cerulean belfry]

That’s cause you have a ton of flowers

[hidden gyro]

Me too!!!

[opal flicker]

if anyone wants ideas they can come to my island, its 5 star but not complete at all

[tawny glacier]

thats if you plant tons of flowers and slap furniture everywhere

[woven drift]

No man it's not just the flowers

[opal flicker]

5 Star is easy tbh

[sturdy girder]

@tawny glacier We have forever to do that, and it dont unlock so much to complete that no ?

[woven drift]

Yep 5 stars was easy

[terse terrace]

i think its mainly the furniture

[silver plover]

@sturdy girder exactly

[woven drift]

I'm not going to lie I'm still salty that certain shrubs only bloom in certain seasons... Well they all do that

[opal flicker]

i have done around 1/8th of my island? and its already 5 star

[cerulean belfry]

Well if it was easy everyone would have it

[woven drift]

Just furnish everything

[hidden gyro]

I got 5 stars without trying. It was the 3 stars that I panic threw furniture lol

[woven drift]

It takes time

[scenic blaze]

i got five stars with only about 40% of my island decorated at all

[graceful quiver]

Just furnish everything
@woven drift god that looks soooo nice

[patent sky]

5* means nothing as to whether the design is "good" or "bad" lol

[cerulean belfry]

I’m literally regressing

[scenic blaze]

you jsut have to obey isabelle's every command

[terse terrace]

ill suck her toes

[cerulean belfry]

I’m back down to 2

[woven drift]

Anyone else wish that the paths wouldn't show up on the map? It makes my map look so ugly 😦

[sturdy girder]

@hidden gyro Yeah basically everybody will have a 5 stars island, trying or not

[patent sky]

Tho Isabelle up in here about to tell me I have too many trees again tho

[regal finch]

Can I move more than one building at the same time? Like can I move my museum and nooks cranny in the same day?

[eager prawn]

Nice

[graceful quiver]

Can I move more than one building at the same time? Like can I move my museum and nooks cranny in the same day?
@regal finch no

[woven drift]

I'm gonna reintroduce the topic of layout

[hidden gyro]

Yeah my island is 5 stars but I would not consider it perfect myself. Still a lot I want to do

[regal finch]

why won't nintendo let me have any fun ;w;

[scenic blaze]

isabelle can heck off with her "too much trees" nonsense

[woven drift]

How to improve

[regal finch]

@scenic blaze AGREED

[cerulean belfry]

I have like 1 tree left on my island

[hidden gyro]

@regal finch sadly no

[terse terrace]

so much for earth day huh

[brisk minnow]

I love how your island is exclusively cats

[cerulean belfry]

Lmao I can’t collect any acorns or mushrooms cause I have no natural areas anymore fml

[eager prawn]

Meow meow

[woven drift]

Okay but post pictures of your favourite part of your island

[regal finch]

@scenic blaze my islanders can suck it up, our economy is RUN ON FRUIT if they want stocked shops they will have to tolerate the trees.

[kind escarp]

My entrance!

[cerulean belfry]

My favorite place?

[eager prawn]

Nice

[woven drift]

Flatten it out

@woven drift

[sturdy girder]

@regal finch Villagers dont like forest 😭😭😭😭

[woven drift]

Lovely, I wish I had more than one colour of drink machine

[cerulean belfry]

Probably my hockey stadium

[hidden gyro]

I'm going to log on soon and show y'all something small but proud I did earlier😂

[woven drift]

@woven drift

[sturdy girder]

They are lost in them stupids animals

[terse terrace]

@cerulean belfry thats so cute

[cerulean belfry]

It’s the raccoon mutants versus the green bears

[cerulean belfry]

Ty @terse terrace

[rocky siren]

Adorable, i really like it ! @woven drift

[regal finch]

@sturdy girder I think I heard that they only complain if the trees are placed too close together. I had mine in rows of 1 space horizontally and 3 spaces vertically. If I had given them 2 or 3 spaces horizontally they probably wouldn't have complained

[patent sky]

The game is literally called animal FOREST come on Isabelle

[cerulean belfry]

Mine should be animal DEforest

[patent sky]

I am once again asking for flyover camera when terraforming

[cerulean belfry]

-ation

[terse terrace]

the only thing i dont like about the trees are the spacing

[patent sky]

I'm doing almost an entire half acre as waterfalls I keep having to climb up and down to check angles and build and tear down land bridges

[woven drift]

Please... All I ask is that you let me put cliffs directly next to trees... Please...

[sturdy girder]

Let me put my tree at the edge of a cliff pleaaase

[woven drift]

Lol

[sturdy girder]

Please Nintendo

[rocky siren]

I add bushes everywhere instead of trees

[silver plover]

Do you all clear everything off before you terraform? What's the best way to make major changes?

[rocky siren]

Yeah @silver plover

[silver plover]

I really don't like my default layout and feel like I need to just start from scratch

[woven drift]

I dont

[rocky siren]

takes ages but it’s better to clear everything

[terse terrace]

i dont do that because its time consuming, i work on a specific part of the island and make my way out @silver plover

[woven drift]

Sams

Same

[sturdy girder]

@silver plover Work little parts by little part

[cyan cedar]

@silver plover i cleared out my whole island lol

[scenic blaze]

i'm tryna rip out an area to sick a big lake in it and it is SENDING ME-

[kind escarp]

I work on areas one by one so I don't overwhelm myself, but then the arrangement and spacing between the areas stresses me out 😅

[woven drift]

I had a whole island layout, then when bushes were announced I stripped my island down to absolutely nothing and started over

[wicked cloak]

i tried to terraform based on my island name,, its still a wip because im not sure if its a dumb idea or not HA should i abort the mission now

[woven drift]

What I easily added bushes everywhere

[hidden gyro]

OH one my friends mentioned people naming their islands Corona because of the tangled village and I think a lake with lanterns in the middle would be beautiful

[woven drift]

If you cant with your current layout it may not be versatile enough

I must have added 250+

[cyan cedar]

@wicked cloak it looks like a spider sorry-

[chrome slate]

I’m done,,,I’m finally finally done with terraforming and pathing

[woven drift]

No it's not that I couldn't, I had plenty of places where they would be perfect. I just have too many ideas and wanted to start over because now that I had a good scope of the various items and stuff I knew how I wanted my island to be... Better?

[terse terrace]

@chrome slate thats really cute

[rocky siren]

I love the houses

[hidden gyro]

Nice!

[sturdy girder]

@chrome slate Love that island with all the houses !

[woven drift]

And since it was a big update I figured now was a good time

[scenic blaze]

omg xana i think i've seen you post before wherein i begged to see your village area

[chrome slate]

Thank you! Now to decorate it all

[scenic blaze]

pls give me pictures

[wicked cloak]

@cyan cedar fitting bc it is spider island right now haha but good to know

[iron plinth]

Does anyone have pictures of their residential/villager homes areas, I’m looking for some inspiration 🙂

[chrome slate]

I’m nowhere NEAR done but I’ll try to get pics today

[woven drift]

WHY DOES NOBODY KNOW HOW TO IMPROVE MY LAYOUT ;-;

I get only cat comments ;-;

[rocky siren]

@iron plinth yeah !

[scenic blaze]

YAY GIVE ME PICTURES ❤️

[royal dock]

BECAUSE ITS BEAUTIFUL

[sturdy girder]

@woven drift seems pretty solid design here !

[kind escarp]

Because there's no complaints 😂

[hidden gyro]

It looks nice to me which is why I have no suggestions

[chrome slate]

ITS CAUSE ITS PERFECT TF

[woven drift]

But there should be

I've been changing things every single day

[royal dock]

no you win the game

[terse terrace]

@woven drift i cant say anything because its not my type of island, i just dont prefer that personally

[sturdy girder]

@woven drift What is bothering you ?

[woven drift]

Well frick

[royal dock]

lol

[woven drift]

I want more water

[opal flicker]

ur layout is fine tf

[kind escarp]

With how developed your island is, the only one who knows what to improve is you, since the island is meant to make you happy after all :0

[woven drift]

But cant fit it in

[hidden gyro]

... you have a lot of water lol

[woven drift]

Not enough

[violet needle]

Any ideas on what I should do with my river mouth that has no river?

[woven drift]

They gave us one of the largest spaces to work with yet and yet still, it's not enough. Never enough space for all the ideas I have.

[hidden gyro]

😂😭💀 what's in the space next to town hall?

[terse terrace]

irrigation maybe? @violet needle

[woven drift]

Cant add more water herev

;-;

[sturdy girder]

@violet needle Make a little cliff with a waterfall ?

[hidden gyro]

@violet needle we have the same river exits and I'm having that exact sane problem lolll I have no solution right now

[violet needle]

@hidden gyro if ur talking to me, the space to the left of town hall was too tiny for houses so I put a bamboo spa thing there

[mystic anvil]

is the expanded museum still the same size as the old one?

[harsh plinth]

@violet needle

[worthy tendon]

anyone have orchard inspo?

[hidden gyro]

Sorry that comment was for @woven drift

@violet needle but I totally love bamboo spa things

[sturdy girder]

Exactly what I thought @harsh plinth

[tropic night]

is the expanded museum still the same size as the old one?
@mystic anvil Yes, just has some new banners

[chrome slate]

My orchard is fugly lmao

[woven drift]

I wouldnt mind more water here

[mystic anvil]

@tropic night thank you!

[woven drift]

An extra canal

[violet needle]

That’s smart.. might move my heart lake to where the moon lake currently is and put that pyramid fountain there

[woven drift]

Being in southern hemisphere is suffering, no young spring bamboo items can be made, no cherry blossom items either... What's the point

[hidden gyro]

That's what I was thinking @woven drift that area to the right of town hall!

[woven drift]

Yay

[woven drift]

But let's see it in person;-;

[hidden gyro]

I can help make bamboo items🥺

[brisk agate]

anyone have museum inspiration 🤩🤩🤩

[terse terrace]

@regal cairn hes kinda handsome tho 👀

[woven drift]

I have a Japanese themed town so living in the southern hemi is pure suffering!!

[mystic anvil]

would love some residential area inspo

[sturdy girder]

@regal cairn cant stand the bears too

[harsh plinth]

I'm on the verge of selling my entire zen area's furniture in a bundle to replace the area with something different

[indigo trellis]

So I already made a second house on my island and got it upgraded a bit to serve as a sorta inn/resort situation, I'm considering adding a couple more accounts to my switch to add a pair of tents to my campground to flesh out that area a bit more. thoughts on that idea?

[woven drift]

And so many people are like bring your own materials and I'll craft it for you but I don't have cherry blossom petals or young spring bamboo aaaa

i jus had cashmere move in 🤮

@brisk agate me

[regal cairn]

@brisk agate I have this

[brisk agate]

i really like the 2 ramps idea!!! mine is off centered and driving me crazy

[sturdy girder]

@woven drift dont trashtalk my baby avocada sheep 🥰🥰🥰

[thick tendon]

@brisk agate

[woven drift]

no

[violet needle]

I’m in love w this common area (first pic) that I made... any ideas to make the area in the second pic more organized like the first one? It feels so messy when they’re compared ....

[regal cairn]

@brisk agate I was having the same problem

[astral rock]

Does anybody have an island where peacock butterflies can spawn

[hidden gyro]

My newest area that I love

@woven drift omg i love it

@woven drift I might use that kotatsu idea

[violet needle]

Anyone have any pool area design inspo ?

[woven drift]

Museum

Inclines

[plucky summit]

can I get some feedback on my potential island layout? I'm going for a spacious type feel, but I honestly have no idea what could be improved ;-;

[hasty spruce]

i think it looks amazing

[hidden gyro]

You can only have 8 bridges and inclines🙃💔

[scenic blaze]

@plucky summit you're missing a pond!

[hasty spruce]

i thought it was 10

[lapis thicket]

dang I didn’t know that

[plucky summit]

I thought it was 8 bridges total and 8 inclines total

[harsh plinth]

It is. You're fine

[restive willow]

It’s 8

[ember sand]

8 each

[terse terrace]

shucks my plan of making an island entirely made out of bridges is ruined

[cerulean belfry]

@violet needle it’s probably because you’re using a bunch of different paths

[plucky summit]

oh hmm I am missing a pond, maybe up at the top right could be a pond instead of a double waterfall

[hasty spruce]

you can also make cool stepping stones through water

[cyan cedar]

Does the base my entrance look ok? ( ill add more stuff to it later on )

[woven drift]

I think the water falls are a bit tacky :O and artificial looking or the gnome is. Hmm

If you're not going for a natural theme thatfine then

[cyan cedar]

Okie

[woven drift]

does anyone have a idea for a villager house area? (like a whole bunch of houses like a neighborhood)

[terse terrace]

i think the waterfalls are fine

[hidden gyro]

Hmm I guess it is 8 and 8. Good to know! I thought it was 8 total. Just looked at some of your maps. Thanks😊

[terse terrace]

dont see it as being tacky unless you make waterfalls everywhere on the sides

[subtle osprey]

Sushi anyone? haha

[woven drift]

They're so round

[terse kiln]

Good Afternoon!

[woven drift]

But thats just my opinion

[last bay]

I built a little Zen Bathhouse!

[woven drift]

what are round

The waterfall edges

[patent sky]

I also like to throw hard diagonals in there

[bold vale]

anyone have any natural beach inspo?

[subtle osprey]

@woven drift I have this little community area

ooh, ok! thanks for the ideas.

Anyone got any backyard ideas w a pool?

[tight hawk]

[hidden gyro]

Suggestions on decorating my newest villagers outside? Second photo is one of my favorite villagers for ideas 🤔

[scenic blaze]

i like to base it on the villager themselves in addition to the house exterior, who lives there?

[harsh plinth]

@tight hawk I have a courtyard thing but it's definitely not a frontyard LOL

[tight hawk]

HAHA its good Im looking more for a coutyard lol

I need inspo

[harsh plinth]

I'll take a short video, it's like my house and then some inclines leading down to the courtyard

[patent sky]

@dapper ginkgo I think you've seen mine already but if you search my name in this channel it should pop up again

[tight hawk]

haha thanks so much, appreciate it

[sharp stump]

Does anyone have any outdoor space area? Like displaying of moon,rocker and UFO and stuff?

[versed wadi]

I'm tearing up my Able Sisters area for the 4th time today

@scenic blaze... it's barold...😂 I made him kick out olaf. I couldn't stand him

[rugged tree]

Someone give me ideas of what to do my house is on the bottom and I’m looking to move it somewhere on the right any ideas?

[vestal crown]

Someone asked for a plaza area with books and ables: here’s mine

[rugged tree]

@vestal crown what is that bench called?

[still drift]

Help! I’m debating on moving my entire museum to the right because Redd is rude and decided to park his ship right behind my waterfall. Should I pull the plug or make it work since he’ll move in eventually?

[outer coral]

has anyone combined an orchard with a flower field / garden? i don't have a lot of spare room so i might have to put both fruit trees and flowers together. looking for some inspiration. 🤗

[vestal crown]

@rugged tree it’s the garden bench diy

[harsh plinth]

@tight hawk Here you go, sorry about the no pants.. LOL

[woven drift]

@tight hawk Here you go, sorry about the no pants.. LOL
@harsh plinth WTH IS RHAT STATUE

[rugged tree]

Any ideas of where to put my house on the left

[harsh plinth]

LOL

[patent sky]

@rugged tree wtf we had really similar starter layouts. I put mine in the middle back by the secret beach

But I also don't use neighborhoods so

[woven drift]

so many hackers 😂😂 jk

[plain lark]

@rugged tree maybe on the second level, right next to the third level? then you could do two waterfalls on either side, it could be cute!

[woven drift]

where is that from ?

[harsh plinth]

It's from Redd

[plain lark]

also @woven drift i think that's a statue you can get from redd? idr the name tho lol

[woven drift]

whaaaa

[harsh plinth]

It's called "gallant statue"

[woven drift]

it just shows up on his shop ?

[harsh plinth]

Yeah

[woven drift]

nice !

[worthy tendon]

vertical or horizontal rows of trees for an orchard?

[woven drift]

is his pecker showing or lmaooo

[harsh plinth]

It is. Don't judge him, he's doing his best..

[woven drift]

😂😂😂

[tight hawk]

HAHA

[sharp stump]

Does anyone have any outdoor stargazing idea layouts?

[tight hawk]

but damn that looks incredible

[graceful quiver]

don't know what to do w my island. any suggestions? open to anything really

[tight hawk]

lol that white theme is going strong

[patent sky]

@plain lark shopping plaza, sorry my trim on the video is a little rough lol

[harsh plinth]

@worthy tendon If you have a path leading to the orchard, I'd just go with the same direction as the path. If not, then probably vertical?

[regal finch]

what hashtag would I use on twitter to see pictures of island layouts?

[plain lark]

@patent sky super pretty!! thank you :D

[patent sky]

My island is not what you'd call flashy aha

But glad it was helpful

[tawdry topaz]

too much water? XD

[terse terrace]

yes

but hey if you like it 🤷

[woven drift]

@patent sky ooh that is really nice layout, and the little mud path at the end looks cool too

[floral topaz]

pls dm me im willing to give big gifts if someone helps me terraform yes ik u cant in game just dm me for more info

[patent sky]

@tawdry topaz there's no such thing

[prime sail]

My favorite corner of the orchard I finished today

[woven drift]

That's very cute

[ember plume]

How have people designed where their shop and Able sisters go?

[dire hamlet]

does anyone have any suggestions regarding what to add to a fishing area

[woven drift]

@tawdry topaz that's a nice square, maybe you could add some benches though, the garden one, maybe

[tawdry topaz]

yea

im adding more details

[woven drift]

👌 it's looking good

[tawdry topaz]

was building hills and stuff mostly

[versed wadi]

My favorite corner of the orchard I finished today
@prime sail Love this

[patent sky]

@woven drift Ty! It goes to the little boardwalk area

[woven drift]

Aa that's really sweet!

[bitter mantle]

guuyys can someone helps me

[woven drift]

@patent sky did you design the blanket? It's 😍

Would go with my picnic basket / pink rose area so nicely haha

[bitter mantle]

can someone help me design my map 🙂 plz

[dapper ginkgo]

@patent sky where is this sign from? .3.

or anyone

[terse terrace]

we can only help design it if you ask specific questions

[patent sky]

@dapper ginkgo it's called "menu chalkboard"

[dapper ginkgo]

thanks

[last creek]

@dapper ginkgo I believe I have an extra one of those

[versed wadi]

@patent sky does the chalkboard come with variants?

[patent sky]

Yeah there's the blue, then a white, brown, and red

[gritty ember]

@versed wadi yeah like 5 of them

[dapper ginkgo]

@last creek ooo mind helping someone out then 🥺

[rugged tree]

What should I do with the left side of the island

[woven drift]

Where should I place my villagers? I want them all grouped together

[harsh plinth]

Btw @graceful quiver What have you done with the left side of your island so far? Is that where you have gardens/orchards?

[gritty ember]

are the starting maps always the same 3?

because mine was identical to @rugged tree rivers when i started

[graceful quiver]

Btw @graceful quiver What have you done with the left side of your island so far? Is that where you have gardens/orchards?
@harsh plinth used to have an orchard. most the land on the left is empty. ive been thinking of a flower farm but idk

[rugged tree]

@gritty ember idk

[harsh plinth]

Yeah, gardens/orchards are good for filling up empty space and they look great on natural islands

[graceful quiver]

i just get super overwhelmed w people's islands that i feel like mine idnt doing well

[harsh plinth]

Especially with the new bushes and hedges that are out

[frail belfry]

Has anybody in this discord made a 2nd character for custom design space?

[harsh plinth]

No, but I didn't think of doing that

My gf has been complaining about not having enough custom design space so I'll be sure to recommend she does that now LOL

[dapper ginkgo]

wait holy shit that’s a good idea

[woven drift]

This is stressful idk what to do with all these trees..

[carmine orbit]

I have four characters...

[versed depot]

Can’t you have 8?

[carmine orbit]

I gave them little stories

[woven drift]

Since when did this game become a beauty competition smh

any ideas ?

[harsh plinth]

That's only what it is if you make it that way ):

[frail belfry]

@carmine orbit how does getting custom designs work when it comes to switch online for secondary characters?

[modern ember]

you can have 8 human houses, only 4 can play at the same time though

[carmine orbit]

All characters on the island share the same custom design space

[frail belfry]

Oh dang seriously?

[scenic blaze]

yep

[neon schooner]

Does anyone have any ideas of what I should put here?

[versed depot]

Someone in this chat yesterday said the exact opposite thing lol

[dapper ginkgo]

ive been struggling with space all this time

[terse terrace]

ur mum

[woven drift]

Someone help with my island

[modern ember]

yes, there's 8 switch profiles so you can have 8 houses

[carmine orbit]

So like my main character made flower art, the other characters can see/use but can't change it (without deleting it)

[viral coral]

@neon schooner maybe a waterfall or park area?

[woven drift]

what should i do in these two spaces

[bitter mantle]

What do you think guys what should I do it looks awful

[viral coral]

@bitter mantle add some waterfalls, flower gardens and stuff

[toxic palm]

You should make the buildings look equal

[polar dagger]

@bitter mantle it doesn't look rounded or natural

[toxic palm]

Including the houses

[bitter mantle]

my island sucks T_T

THANKS

[dapper ginkgo]

dont rush, we’ve all been there

[woven drift]

@woven drift i made a cafe and a diner

[tight hawk]

what did you guys do for the entrance to that secret beach?

[woven drift]

Make it my camp site area

[carmine orbit]

Wow you're right you can have 8 human houses HOW DOES ANYONE HAVE THAT MUCH SPACE

[vast cradle]

My house is right in front of that beach but on the 3rd height, so I am doing a little side path from a different part

[quiet galleon]

Just a little thing I did today I was pretty happy with, a sweet little dumpling stand

[carmine orbit]

also it should be noted you can't go online with the other characters without a paid Nintendo account for that profile

[indigo berry]

Ugh, I feel like just tearing my entire island down and redoing it

[carmine orbit]

@indigo berry nooooo why??

[violet needle]

^ i feel that

[tight hawk]

ahh alright thanks guys

[frail belfry]

@woven drift This looks like an excellent use of cliffs and 3d space. I'd love to see more of your island

[woven drift]

@indigo berry dewit.
I tore down my island 7 times and rebuilt it. It's fun. Lotta work. But your get more ideals

@frail belfry would you like to visit.

[violet needle]

I wish I picked a layout w different river mouths 😠 but I’m happy w where the city hall is at least

[quiet galleon]

Me too, but just remember that every island is special and unique in its own way. No two islands are the same, and that makes your island something really nice in its own right :) @indigo berry

[frail belfry]

@woven drift Yes absolutely!

[vestal crown]

What we thinking about it folks? Do I need more water or what?

[indigo berry]

I wish you could have resident services temporarily remove all the buildings on the island

This is what my layout is like right now and the island just feels tiny

[viral coral]

@indigo berry sammmeeee

[paper magnet]

What do you guys think I should do? I have so many options... I think I want to start with deciding how the hills and houses should be organized.

[violet needle]

What we thinking about it folks? Do I need more water or what?
@vestal crown I LOVE that river sm omg

[vestal crown]

thank you it’s gone through a lot of different iterations ^^

[fading anvil]

Hmst

[vast cradle]

Do you guys think I need a pond or something to be the source for this water? I like the waterfalls where they are, but idk if this looks good rn (ignore the turnips they are temporary obviously)

[spring bison]

Is there any way to get a white wood floor design in the graphic style of the airport dock?

[violet needle]

Ladies and gents. Pls vote. Should I move all the buildings onto the beach to change around my rivers n stuff?

[hasty crescent]

Probably is, but as a custom

[patent sky]

@fading anvil I love this, how do you get down to the museum tho haha, it's like an infinity pool

[quiet galleon]

What should I add to my ritual circle? It’s right next to my dumpling stand

[cobalt fox]

anyone have any zen garden ideas?

[quiet galleon]

The well is where the blood is held

Blood from the turnips

[patent sky]

@violet needle if you're already asking yourself this question, then yes

[violet needle]

Thank u bless u. I’m keeping the able sisters there for sure but everything else idk

[wintry vortex]

Does anyone have a cool outdoor cafe?

[patent sky]

Lololol omg

[viral coral]

@quiet galleon add candles or lanterns

[fading anvil]

@patent sky thank u! it was originally on a second level, just moved it down to the ground

[quiet galleon]

Ooh yesss

[viral coral]

lmaooo

[patent sky]

Omg senpai noticed me

I kid.... mostly

[vestal crown]

@violet needle the only thing I would really change is trying to connect those rivers to your outlets

[proper swift]

Still in the process of moving the houses.. planning on having Marshall and Raymond next to my house and two little cafés for them to manage

[wintry vortex]

Need few ideas for a cool outdoor cafe, if someone of u have one 😄

[violet needle]

@violet needle the only thing I would really change is trying to connect those rivers to your outlets
@vestal crown that def needs help but I kinda wanna completely redo all my rivers anyways

[viral coral]

@proper swift omg your island is so organized i lovvveee it

[vast cradle]

@cobalt fox I kind of have a zen garden thing. Tbh I don’t think it looks that good, but I think there are some decent ideas there

[proper swift]

@viral coral thank you so much 😭 it took hours and hours but i'm getting to a point where i'm starting to feel like it paid off

[tight hawk]

what are the dimensions of the players house?

[proper swift]

especially now that i've started decorating

[indigo berry]

I'm kind of considering time traveling just to move all my buildings after I sell my turnips this week, I don't really want to spend 15 days moving building just to move em again 🙁

[proper swift]

5x4 i believe @tight hawk

[tight hawk]

alright thanks thanks @proper swift

[proper swift]

npp

[patent sky]

TIL you can plant bamboo on sand path :0

[viral coral]

@indigo berry thats what i did and it was sooo much easier to move everything

[indigo berry]

You can do palm trees on sand path too

[frosty spruce]

does anyone have country fence recipe in their nook’s atm??

[buoyant gate]

I need opinions on this area. It's a small turnip farm in a tropical setting near the campsite

[patent sky]

Ya have those, had no idea about the bamboo tho that's so cool

[woven drift]

This is my island entrance so far. A lot to do still, but Coco decided to not let me leave

[fierce mesa]

i have a little 6x2 area on both sides in the front! what should i put there??

[proper swift]

looks nice! @woven drift

[runic valve]

Anyone know a good dimension for a 3rd level museum? 🙂

[versed depot]

Anybody have any transitions between town/forest I can look at?

[woven drift]

Picnic benches with flowers around, or maybe A border of bushes surrounding a tree? @fierce mesa

[violet needle]

@fierce mesa sidewalk!

[vast cradle]

how does my little playground area look? (I wanted to make it bigger, but I don’t really have space)

[indigo berry]

Oh that's adorable

[gentle spindle]

I recreated the Royal Award ceremony from Star Was 😁 I’m not sure what else to add any ideas?

[indigo berry]

Maybe a little iron fence around it?

[polar dagger]

THATS AMAZING

[fierce mesa]

@woven drift that would be so cute 🥺🥺 i hope i can make it work in such a small space

[wintry vortex]

Does no one have a outdoor cafe? 🙂

[indigo berry]

I do!

[patent sky]

@wintry vortex

[indigo berry]

I need to resize it, but I'm working on it

[wintry vortex]

Ty ❤️ atleast few cool ideas for mine. thx mates ❤️

[fierce mesa]

what did y’all do with the little peninsula shaped things on your islands?

[indigo berry]

Btw, Is there a smaller board I could display my roost design on?

[vast cradle]

I put a lighthouse on mine @fierce mesa

[proper swift]

same

[devout trellis]

what are the dimensions of villagers houses??

[indigo berry]

4x4

[devout trellis]

okie thank you!! ❤️

[indigo berry]

The front row of the 4x4 is their steps

[devout trellis]

but the house itself is 3x4?

[indigo berry]

Yes

[vast cradle]

can you place inclines backwards?

[devout trellis]

ok perfect!! thank you

[indigo berry]

Yeah you can

[humble prawn]

You have to be facing the way you want it

[vast cradle]

ok 🙂

[runic valve]

Looking for elevated museum for inspiration 😄

[true burrow]

would anyone maybe be down to visit my island and give me tips on what to do ? i hate my whole island and i have no idea what i want to do going forward or just in general lol

[inland glen]

And ideas or tipps for my island entrance? I am happy for every tipps and help!

[random lagoon]

Hello~ anyone have a completed park? I need some inspiration!

[vivid crow]

What do you guys think of my little cemetery?

[viral coral]

omg 😭 the shovel lmaooooo @vivid crow

[uneven tulip]

its really pretty

[crude torrent]

^

[tidal lodge]

cool

[vivid crow]

Thanks! I wanted an effect of a fresh burial

[ornate mortar]

@vivid crow im freaking love your cemetery!!!

i cant wait to get the gravestones those are so cool

[lofty vine]

@patent sky love u

[vivid crow]

Btw, in polish the letters on the sign next to the grave spell " RIP yo mama"

[ornate mortar]

😆 😭

[tame thunder]

even people who placed 250 cardboard boxes for 5 stars?

[tawny glacier]

anyone have any idea what else i can put here?

[vast cradle]

I saw a pic of a cemetery someone made and there was a sign that said rip tortimer lmao

[vivid crow]

Some blossom lanterns maybe

[ornate mortar]

he was bound to go eventually

[languid sparrow]

Behold! The amazing psychic turtle!

[indigo berry]

Speaking of cemeteries, has anyone made the kakariko village cemetery?

[tawny glacier]

@languid sparrow my man tortimer just vibin

[zealous lodge]

@tawny glacier put a gong or monster statue

[tawny glacier]

@zealous lodge tyvm, ill see how those look

[tame thunder]

everyone on tortimer island got wiped out

[uneven tulip]

@tawny glacier maybe a bamboo tree to the right, and a little «garden lantern» right in front. you could also do the fences just one more like in front on each side, i think that would be cute! on outside of the fence you could put a tiny table and a chair or two

[vast cradle]

Its so frustrating to me that nooks cranny and able sisters are not the same size

[tawny glacier]

@uneven tulip ty all

[indigo berry]

I don't mind it tbh

[ornate mortar]

but isnt he a tortoise? their lifespans are loooonggg, he would outlive us all lol

[tame thunder]

what size is able sisters again? ik cranny is 7x4

[indigo berry]

If I'm being honest I kind of like them being different sizes

[formal falcon]

Does anyone know which other villagers have exteriors similar to Tia's? I love the blue colors of it. It fits with my theme but I'm letting her move away.

[late lynx]

im looking at all of your islands and it makes mine look like garbage

[tawny glacier]

5x4 i think is nooks cranny size right

[vast cradle]

I wish they were at least the same depth

[tame thunder]

cranny is 7x4 @tawny glacier

[vast cradle]

able sisters is 6x3 I think

[tawny glacier]

i meant able sisters oops

[tame thunder]

ah ok lol

[proper swift]

Bluebear! @formal falcon

I think

[tawny glacier]

nooks cranny a damn UNIT

[formal falcon]

Thank you!

[uneven tulip]

what theme is yall’s islands?

[indigo berry]

It is weird the the crannies depth I larger than the museum*

[tame thunder]

i'm trying to make mine a tropical resort but it's very much wip atm

[crisp topaz]

Anyone have cook nook shop layouts?

[proper swift]

im looking at all of your islands and it makes mine look like garbage

@formal falcon Pate

[uneven tulip]

yeah same, mine is tropical but its tricky

[harsh plinth]

@formal falcon Would you like the link to collection someone made that shows every villager house exterior?

[formal falcon]

Oooh yes please

[late lynx]

@proper swift awww ty

[proper swift]

I WOULD love it too @harsh plinth

[formal falcon]

Thank y'all!

[chrome slate]

I don’t have like any flower hybrids or fun furniture so these suck but hey wow parks

[median gyro]

I don't think I have a theme yet. I kind of want to do a cedar/forest/stonework theme

[harsh plinth]

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1QYW4E1M-XxhbtFgE27qGR1stlyeC3bEP Every villager exterior is here I think

[tame thunder]

i decorated a lot near the entrance and put a lot of time into the museum entrance but other than that i'm pretty iffy about my island

[woven drift]

My sunday 😆

[formal falcon]

Also, as far as themes go, I'm going for like a resort/tropical/pastel look. Idk like Key West sorta I guess.

[flint light]

Can inclines be made side by side? Or does it need 1 dig space in between

[indigo berry]

Needs space between them

I found that out the hard way 😔

[proper swift]

sucks

[flint light]

Tysm for answering lol and dang D: lost bells

[vast cradle]

Thankfully inclines can have cliffs on both sides

[novel tiger]

would love some inspo for how/where to put my villagers can you guys send some 😭

[uneven tulip]

any tips on what i can have on a huuuge landarea (my theme is tropical summer ish), i have both water and cliff counstruction

[tame thunder]

on my 2nd island i'm trying to do whatever i want but i'm mainly trying to do a medieval theme mainly because i have knox and ankha there

[chrome slate]

Neighborhood circle layout best layout

[woven drift]

oh this looks so cute @chrome slate

[late lynx]

@chrome slate that looks incredible

[chrome slate]

Thank you I’m bad at decorating as you can see by scrolling up but I like to think I’m good at terraforming

[tame thunder]

i thought it was the same starting island as mine but the grass beach thing and secret beach are in different areas

[minor pivot]

I just got Sherb to move in so I designed the whole beach area for him, I'm gonna put his house just above this new area

[proper kiln]

Nice

[harsh plinth]

I had the same problem @chrome slate So I made my island more structure based and less heavy on decorating LOL

[tame thunder]

sherb's adorable, i have him in my 2nd island

[chrome slate]

My luck is just SO bad with getting good furniture and diys

[minor pivot]

I tried going with a punky/goth theme for my whole island and my villagers but he was too cute so I took him

[tame thunder]

yes he's so cute

[plain lark]

sherb is one of my fave villagers ever, i'm waiting on someone to move out so i can trade for him :') @minor pivot the beach is so cute he deserves it

[indigo berry]

What should I do with corner on the right?

Connecting the fences up looks weird

[versed depot]

Dig holes

[violet needle]

Anyone have some cool river designs for inspiration?

[versed depot]

They make measuring easy

[indigo berry]

Island designer and paths are good too

[uneven tulip]

any tips on what i could have on this area? my theme is tropical,

[minor pivot]

maybe terraform that corner and add fence

[spark hawk]

@formal falcon The Chrissy in my island has the same blue exterior, just pink roof and door

[indigo sierra]

@woven drift use paths if you have access

[tame thunder]

iirc digging holes doesn't take up durability on your shovel so

[plain lark]

@woven drift lay out patterns on the floor! in the pinned messages (somewhere....probably this channel :'D) show you the exact sizes of each building so you can align it right

[zinc schooner]

Looking for cool graveyard inspiration ^^

[tame thunder]

yeah chrissy has a similar exterior to tia, just replace the white with pink. she's on my 2nd island too so

[civic anvil]

nooks cranny is 6x4 squares, so lay out a 6x4 path or pattern and place it between the space! @woven drift

[indigo berry]

Yeah, I tried terraforming the corner, but the flat front looked wrong

[violet needle]

@uneven tulip u can place coconut trees as long as u put a sand path down. Also put a pool w some beach chairs n stuff that would look cool

[tame thunder]

it's 7x4 peach

[civic anvil]

Oops mb

[formal falcon]

@spark hawk ooh yes ty

[slow dagger]

Someone on Reddit did this 💀

[uneven tulip]

@violet needle thank you so much, i already have 2 pools on my island but never too many pools

[tame thunder]

check the pinned messages for the sizes of each building

[civic anvil]

That’s beautiful

[minor pivot]

omg legendary

[plain lark]

daaamn

[gritty coral]

@slow dagger ohhhh my god 😭

[bold mirage]

Starting a clifftop orchard!!!

[tame thunder]

I’m kinda new to discord and I really only use it for acnh sooo it’ll probably take me some time to find the pinned messages

[tame thunder]

you using mobile or not?

[tawny glacier]

guys so i used 50 NTM on random NMT islands and got no rare villagers

[civic anvil]

I am, but I just found it LMAO but thanks

[tawny glacier]

F

[dry sluice]

Is this okay for a home setup? I will add a couple of bits of furniture tomorrow

[tame thunder]

dang that sucks

[indigo berry]

Oh that is lovely

[tame thunder]

i actually never thought of using hedges for homes

[gritty coral]

@tawny glacier ooof 😩 I been there.

[vast cradle]

Any ideas of what to put in the red and orange areas? also the pink area is gonna change but I haven't had a chance to demolish the bridge yet

[indigo berry]

Great home design, very cozy

[chrome slate]

Matt I love it ;; @dry sluice but u don’t have the duck pond anymore so 0/10

[dry sluice]

That will return 😉

[tame thunder]

for now i'm just putting a ghetto block of villagers near my entrance and am gonna work on individual areas from there

[versed wadi]

Old Able Sisters…

[late lynx]

@dry sluice it would look incredible with some furniture and flowers :)

[indigo berry]

@dry sluice Thanks for the inspo

@cyan cedar I felt that LMAO I’m moving them again after it only being a week since I did it last

[late lynx]

@cyan cedar ive literally moved my villagers so many times

[true burrow]

does anyone have any neighborhood or yard designs ? i want to reset my island and i really need some ideas before i mess it up again lol

[bold mirage]

@versed wadi what are those market stall things in that photo called?

[woven drift]

My luck is just SO bad with getting good furniture and diys
@chrome slate i feel u

[tawny glacier]

how do you guys put little clothing items up like that on your stalls, do you just drop them?

[indigo berry]

The stalls are in the nook miles shop

[plain lark]

yep, you just drop em

[indigo berry]

Like 1000 nm iirc?

[versed wadi]

Menu chalkboard

[tawny glacier]

any of you guys have kimono in ur able sisters rn

[bold mirage]

Oh really? I thought I had to wait for the DIY. My orchard can be finished sooner!

[torpid talon]

anyone have plaza ideas/ inspiration? feeling kinda stuck

[tame thunder]

it really depends on where your airport and plaza are

[trail peak]

Just a few areas of mine

My house is super empty tho and I have a few empty plots of land not sure what to do with them

[tame thunder]

mind showing a map of your island @torpid talon?

[torpid talon]

i hate the placing /:

i still have to fix where the shops are tho

[lyric talon]

I just moved all villager houses and shops on the beach and I will terraform everthing and make fences then move then one by one.

it took me 5 hous and a lot of time travel

[tame thunder]

maybe have a bunch of derailings to go to different places on the way to the plaza?

[uneven tulip]

fences or not?

[vast cradle]

How do you guys make your islands feel so big? mine feels tiny

[indigo berry]

No fences imo

[trail peak]

^

[tame thunder]

i feel like it's all about conserving space

[torpid talon]

@vast cradle chopping down trees helps me

@tame thunder tt!!

[lyric talon]

How do you guys make your islands feel so big? mine feels tiny
@vast cradle trees

[torpid talon]

ty* lol

[tawny glacier]

@uneven tulip maybe some scattered country fences

[trail peak]

I just don’t know where to put flower all mine are in clusters right now

[bold mirage]

@vast cradle I heard somebody say that the more you add the bigger it feels.

[surreal cobalt]

Did a little picnic area.

[indigo berry]

Elevation changes can make it feel smaller as well

[tame thunder]

of course

[uneven tulip]

@tawny glacier yeah maybe, trying for a tropical style

[bold mirage]

@surreal cobalt I love that so much!

[vast cradle]

I think maybe part of my problem is that im using a ton of space for flower breeding rn

[tame thunder]

i might move my flower breeders since they're on an elevation

[torpid talon]

@vast cradle same, it can be overwhelming

i have a hybrid cloning guide if anyone wants it? it’s saved me a lot of space

[woven drift]

Lookie at a funny wip pic XD

[tawny glacier]

@woven drift is that ur island

[bold mirage]

What would you guys add to an orchard? I already have the actually trees and a little market area, and I plan to add turnips.

[chrome slate]

I also love my little garden and so does Zucker ;;

[last haven]

;-; why does my airport not align with my town center

[spare goblet]

I initially had my north beach completely covered and now i have to open it up so its not hard to get to. So now i gotta move houses and structures

[woven drift]

Was my island. I've finished most of it already

[vast cradle]

@torpid talon yeah, can I see the hybrid cloning guide?

[tawny glacier]

@woven drift i didnt know i feared having no rivers until now

[craggy adder]

@chrome slate how do u get the wheelbarrow?

[torpid talon]

@vast cradle

[heady galleon]

you can buy it at nook stop

[woven drift]

No. Here's real fear

XD

[torpid talon]

they grow really fast too!

[tawny glacier]

@woven drift

[craggy adder]

i cant find the wheelbarrow on nookazon

[buoyant gate]

I need opinions on this area. It's a small turnip farm in a tropical setting near the campsite

[tame thunder]

lemme crop that for you so it's easier to read

[buoyant gate]

@craggy adder it's called a handcart

[woven drift]

Just saying. I promote island destruction.
It helps really let your creativity flow and really make the island yours.

[torpid talon]

@buoyant gate maybe more flowers! @tame thunder lol whoops sorry about that 😂

[tame thunder]

it's fine

[craggy adder]

@buoyant gate ah that explains it ty

[buoyant gate]

@craggy adder np:)

[tame thunder]

i'm gonna get rid of my tulip, windflower, and non-pink and blue hyacinth breeders so i have more room for other stuff, maybe also my pansy breeders cuz i dislike pansies

[patent sky]

I did my destruction in small parts lol

[spice rain]

@trail peak almost had the same island name lmao

[versed wadi]

Just saying. I promote island destruction.
It helps really let your creativity flow and really make the island yours.
@woven drift The blank page would give me severe creative paralysis!

[tame thunder]

creative paralysis sucksss

[full vortex]

hi can i check the length and width of the town hall and the plaza? i really need help

[woven drift]

XD

[terse terrace]

creative coma

[trail peak]

@trail peak almost had the same island name lmao
@spice rain lmaooo I regret it but me and my friends were all being meme-y

Ugh I’m in a creative coma too

I have a few big open spaces

[cyan cedar]

Should i move all my villager houses to a new area bc im not happy with the other one ? 🦧

[spice rain]

@trail peak i vibe w it

[trail peak]

I just can’t think of how to use them

[heady galleon]

how do you move your villagers and your shops?

[torpid talon]

tfw you have so many items dropped all over your island so you can terraform 😣

[latent hatch]

I kinda took my island the way it was and just.... worked from there on. I pretty much only terraformed the third layer and removed it entirely and have so much space on my second layer now I'm not sure what to do with it

[tame thunder]

having roses as my natives will really help me in the long run because i can get island orange roses much more easily

[torpid talon]

@heady galleon you have to speak to tom nook about infrastructure

[spice rain]

@trail peak wedding area, coffee shop, graveyard, basketball court, soccer field

[woven drift]

Thoughts/ideas? Not sure if I’m 100% sold on it

[terse terrace]

im making a whole graveyard dedicated to the villagers i kicked out

[tame thunder]

if any of you want to create a 2nd island i really recommend having roses as your native or sister flowers for easier blue rose breeding

would that work for villagers you traded out @terse terrace?

[vast cradle]

wait do hybrids grow easier on native islands?

[heady galleon]

@torpid talon thanks

[terse terrace]

theyre dead to me too

[trail peak]

The circled areas are my big open spaces I wanna use so far I already have a coffee shop and zen garden and turnip farm but not much else the overall island vibe is zen/traditional Japanese

If the actual cafe is coming I wanna put it by town hall prolly

[tame thunder]

orange flowers found on hybrid islands have different genes than oranges from seed breeding @vast cradle, and the hybrid island oranges allow you to breed blues

[indigo berry]

Does anyone know how to make a large pond look more circular?

[vast cradle]

oh

[heady galleon]

no

[tame thunder]

i can dm you a read on flower genes if you want

[vast cradle]

I might just end up buying flowers lol

[cyan cedar]

Should i take down my villager area or deal with it?

[tame thunder]

is it getting in the way of something you wanna work on?

[trail peak]

In my opinion it feels kinda off having all the villagers together

[cyan cedar]

Not rlly i just think theyre too close

[indigo berry]

Mine is very square

[woven drift]

I DID IT YOU ALL!!!! ALL 6 ROCKS WITHIN ZEN GARDEN

[tame thunder]

i'm keeping them all together for now until i know what i wanna do with their houses

[whole bear]

Posting my vacation seaside home design again ☺

[chrome slate]

Does anyone wanna uhhhh see a video of how I solved my off center airport and plaza 🥺👉👈

[heady galleon]

[topaz shale]

[tame thunder]

[woven drift]

[trail peak]

@whole bear could I get the code for the wooden floor patterns?

[tame thunder]

ooh i like that idea

[viral coral]

can someone tell me how this looks? it took me all day and im pretty proud of it

[heady galleon]

looks pretty good

[proper swift]

nice symmetry

[heady galleon]

better than my island by far

[patent sky]

If Isabelle tells me too many trees again I s2g

[viral coral]

tyy

[trail peak]

SAME

[patent sky]

I'm literally exactly at the tree limit apparently

[woven drift]

I have bamboo legit everywhere

[tame thunder]

chop a hardwood or cedar tree

[woven drift]

Oh and bell trees

[patent sky]

The question then is, do I care about keeping my island 5* lol

[torpid talon]

i’m at the incline limit 😭

[woven drift]

I use bell trees for asthetics

[tame thunder]

oh shoot my island's at 4 stars

[torpid talon]

i took down most of my trees so i know my score went down /:

[tight hawk]

any of you guys got compact designs for an orchard

[trail peak]

I’m stuck at 4*

[last haven]

Does anyone have any examples of pathways etc when the townhall isn’t linear from the airport?

[tame thunder]

i had no idea i was at 4 stars so lol

[versed wadi]

The question then is, do I care about keeping my island 5* lol
@patent sky Nah, I took a screenshot and then started planted weeds and tearing stuff up!

[woven drift]

Bell trees for days

[heady galleon]

interesting

[patent sky]

@last haven this is my entrance

[woven drift]

Here too

[last haven]

Ohhhh so cute

[woven drift]

:D this is a prosperous island

[last haven]

Thank you!

[versed wadi]

@last haven this was my entrance as of last night…

[wispy osprey]

i wanted to give apollo a cupcake but i accidentally gave him a DOLLY SHIRT one that judy gave me, AND HE WORE IT RIGHT AWAY

[torpid talon]

any idea where to place my shops?

[last haven]

Ahhh so pretty i finally got the villagers i wanted (except Judy 😤) so I’m staring my island makeover now lol

[tame thunder]

imagine not getting judy on your 2nd nmt after a villager moves out LUL

sorry for flexing but i'm still super stoked about it lol

[whole bear]

I need more pattern slots 😔

[little wave]

Everyone fawning over Judy and I'm over here like ....Gonzo

[last haven]

Ahaha I’ve gotten every “popular” villager except her and Raymond 😭 i don’t even want raymond but he’s a ticket to Judy lol

[torpid talon]

i have some good villagers (: just need murphy to leave lol

[tame thunder]

dang, i have 3 super popular villagers (marshal, merengue, judy) so you're certainly doing better than me lol

[trail peak]

I searched for sherb and bought 10 nmt ahead of time then got him on my first

[whole bear]

That feeling when all your dreamies were cheap 😍

[torpid talon]

Shari finally left yesterday, i was so happy

[little wave]

^

[tame thunder]

i'm pretty sure i got sherb on my 2nd switch on my 1st nmt after patty left

and i still had another peppy villager (chrissy)

[last haven]

I had hippeux on my island for weeks because he wouldn’t leave

[versed wadi]

My daughter got Merengue, Beau and Rosie back to back. And i'm stuck here with Dunder Mifflin Koala and the Trash Squid!

[last haven]

[whole bear]

I'm glad non of the popular villagers fit my islands theme

[tame thunder]

[torpid talon]

all i get are ugly villagers when i use NMT

[patent sky]

"Dunder mifflin koala" 😂😂😂

[tame thunder]

rip dude

[compact sierra]

Oh man, I just looked up Judy, she's so cute 😭😭

[spring bison]

i hate how you have to set up a plot before using tickets to farm villagers, then if you fail your stuck with a random

[cyan cedar]

I need chops to move out 😭

[tame thunder]

today i got goldie on my 4th but i passed her up because i still had like 29 left, and then 3 later i got skye who is one of my favorite villagers so i gladly took her lol

[patent sky]

That's why you time travel backwards forever lol

[tame thunder]

i see we all have a smug villager problem lmao

[little wave]

I. want Skye to leave my island

[compact sierra]

Omgggg Goldie is one of my faves, I am so jealous

Skye is so cute tho!

[tame thunder]

goldie's great but recently i looked up that the amiibo festival bundle (with a goldie card) is like 11 dollars at cheapest sooo

[torpid talon]

i have Flora, Shep, Tutu, Punchy, Zucker, Miranda, Freckles, Purrl, Julian and Murphy (:

[tame thunder]

plus i passed her up because i thought i might've got her again

[torpid talon]

[compact sierra]

[fathom sonnet]

I would love having all the cool villagers

[unkempt wren]

Any thoughts on People who still have some (not superrr BUnydayish) Bunny day Furniture out? I only have the lamp and baloons mainly (maybe one bed) but I put Egg fences around the flowers at my entereance cuz theyre pastel and matched cx and I put the egg posts around my Money trees....
