With 1 digspace in betwen? :o
Flowers!
@safe field zen walls are my favorite
Star, i love it!
yeah its one digspace in between any trees
Woo! Ty :)
So close
just as long as nothing is in any of the 8 blocks immediately surrounding it
Y’all I’m so excited I get full size trees in my orchard tomorrow so I can finally do all my fencing in it
Woot
Also, do you guys think orange and yellow hyacinths would look good with a little secret pond?
I flattened my whole island for a clean start :,))) It took me two ish days??
orange hyacinths look very much like cattails so i say yes
pashmina is the best
It’s right below my orchard which has yellow ones (which are sorta there to look like more crops) so I think it will fit.
And I’m excited for what it will look like in autumn
terraforming takes so much time... props to you for doing a clean start. i dont have that kind of patience LOL @shut snow
considering my layout, where do you gouts think the best place to put a marketplace is? i’m thinking to the far right past the river
Yea terraforming takes so long but in the end its worth it
I use hyacinths maybe too much just think they work best with a lot of my landscaping
Whoever wants to help design my island please dm me my island needs serious help
i love the canyons
I'm baaaaaack! This is my wip plaza area. The starts between the shrubs are azaleas in a pattern. I need to add more furniture as well as probably get rid of that shrub area in front of Resident Services. Thoughts, suggestions, comments?
Ty!
Any feedback with this? I’m trying out landscaping rn and wanted to go for a rustic sort of feel
been working on a peaceful area today
yall are so creative.. im jelly
my town sucks
@bold mirage yes! Hyacinths are the prettiest flowers
cosmos say otherwise
...rose...
i looooove cosmos esp the white ones
@bleak sigil double south ftw!
everything about tulips and pansies suck. change my mind.
@primal quest what abt behind nooks? There’s an island! The right side looks narrow
Cosmos too they are the cutest! @topaz shale
pansies are my native flower... im only using them sparingly
My natives are pansies too 🥵
@barren swift you’re mind is changed about pansies, yellow at least
i don’t like that extra color in the center. they’re my natives and i just don’t like them too much
i love cosmos but they arent any of my flowers or sister flowers i had to travel to someone to get cosmos seed
true! thanks for the suggestion
I got lucky my native is cosmos
I don’t like cosmos unless it’s in a wild setting. Too much stem for me. They’re my main flower.
Sister flower is tulips which I loved but overused and now I’m sick of them
pls trade me i hate pansies theyre too wide
I dislike mums the most, so messing looking
This is what I'm considering for my entranceway, but I've used natural inclines everywhere else, should I use wood or possibly a more expensive incline you think?
noooo mums are cute they look fluffy
I think mums look bad but the hybrids are good
also pansies are too much of another color to be their color
I want mums for the green.
I don’t get why people like green mums
Euck I hate how they look, though my mom put herself in charge of the flowers
like whats up with a red pansy being mostly dark blue
@vernal widget They’re the only green flower
They ugly
i think cause theyre the only green flower
I don’t like the look but I gotta have a flower rainbow somewhere
I probably wasted days and millions of bells to make streets and move houses and now im probably gonna move everything now :/
Ya fair
it be like that sometimes dumbo
They’re also nice for like an unblossomed flower in a garden
@bleak sigil thank you 😊
My favorite flower is still the orange roses
Purple mums are cute
I'm baaaaaack! This is my wip plaza area. The starts between the shrubs are azaleas in a pattern. I need to add more furniture as well as probably get rid of that shrub area in front of Resident Services. Thoughts, suggestions, comments?
I think I like lillies the best
Black flowers are the cleanest looking
No windflowers love?
Or whatever they called
anybody know the 5star eval system really well willing to take a tour of my island and recommend what I should add to most effectively boost my rating? I get the basics of how the eval works I’m just trying toavoid spamming furniture and flowers and keep things more minimal.. but still on 4star due to lack of “appealing scenery” I have some basic ideas of what I could do like more fencing and park benches but really don’t what will be effective. here’s map dm if you want code. If you just want to come and explore that’s okay too(shops closed)
Windflowers are up in my favorites. Hyacinths, lillies, windflowers
U just need a shit ton of decor lol @rustic flare
and a ton of bushes
5* doesn’t mean your island looks good it just means it’s fleshed out
appealing scenery suggest adding flowers and trees so do a ton of those
was stuck on 4 for ages and bushes gave me 5
Got to 4 stars recently and don’t know quite how. Guess I had lots of furniture outside and I’ve got flowers.
Uhhh
I got to 5* placing lots of small lil decor
more bushes I could do
Like mini cactus, succulent plant
you need to have a certain amount of DIY items placed down
I have a lot with my cafe and smooth jazz rock
i havent checked cause i know its going to be low because im obviously not done but i probably have like 2 stars bcause i have all my stuff outside cause i dont have space in my house
if you talk to isabelle she tells you what youre missing
I also got to 4 stars last week lol idk why I didn't change much. Maybe my outdoor venue helped because there were 9 pieces of furniture per table...
she just says decorate more
if when im done doing everything and i go check, and it says like 3 stars, ill be devastated
Usually it’s decor
I’m going to try filling out some benches and stuff
The requirement is A LOT
Diy good idea
Like hundreds
Argh Isabelle annoys me so much
i heard but its not confirmed because obviously everyone is guessing but it might be to have 60 diy items outside as a requirement for 5 stars
if you wanna cheese it, use hay beds
SIXTY
But, I did it naturally with like tables and chairs
I’d say I only have around 20-30 or so
shell tell you if you need more flowers. I think you should just work on one goal at a time. Start with DIY
I JUST got 5 stars today. They aren’t kidding when they say you need a LOT of items throughout your town.
I think chairs tables and benchs will be my first step and more bushes, does fencing and hedges make much difference?
you need to have X amount of decor, x amount of DIY, and X amount of flowers
DIY is hardest for me
Do you get the golden watering can diy as soon as you hit 5 stars?
I’m pretty sure I’m good for flowers I have quiet a lot
Between 4* and 5* I had like 3 full inventories of decor
Is anyone looking for inspiration for a 5 star town? DM me if you want to check mine out. No fees.
Also, make sure to have nook miles items too
Mostly DIY cos it takes too Long to order via catalogue
What if I bury pitfall seeds everywhere does that help for diy items? 😅
youll be mad when you run into one on accident lol
I have a good amount of nook miles items 3 windmills 2 solar lighthouse
My life is a pitfall seed
cut my life into pieces
U Shld just work on it organically
When you make hedges do they come in ten or just one
Don’t spam random decor jus to get 5*
10
So this is what I went off of
Around 20 Nook Miles furnishings
Around 50 DIY furnishings
Around 40 store-bought furnishings
Around 50 fence segments
Around 110 trees and 10 bamboo thickets
Around 250 flowers must be bloomed, not sprouting or budding
7 bridges
6 ramps
Yeah I got to four stars just by starting some projects
they come in 10
I also got tiny library diy yesterday gonna put a bunch of those around hopefully helps no books to craft rn though 😆
All it does is give u golden watering can recipe and the lily of the valley
i dont even have that many flowers but managed 5*
And Golden roses
tons of bush tho
Anyone know why this happens? Some grow and some don’t. They’re all spaced apart the same
Yea I think making your island look good is independent of star rating
Yea I’ll definitely add more bushes that’s easy
does anyone have a street qr code? im so new at this so help is appreciated thanks!
U need 2 empty spaces on all sides @fierce ginkgo
I heard somewhere you can only have a certain number of fruit trees
How big is ur guys house areas? Like square wise
@upper pivot I don’t have nearly that many bridges and I only have like 10 nook store furnishings and I have 5 star
It should work with just one space
No
No
They grow with 2 empty spaces
I agree I would like to find a way to hold it at 5star I feel like it’s close
When fully grown it would only need one empty space all around
@tulip mica I bet if you have more of one item, and less of others it balances.
Of course they're seperate, the game has no way of checking what it actually looks like. Also that's subjective
Mine are growing with just one space between them
Needs 2 no other trees within 2 spaces in at least one direction
i've grown some with just one space
@upper pivot true, I have a lot of nook mile items
Ah I see. I have two spaces in one but only one in the other direction
I had a nursery area when I was first growing my orchard
When the trees were fully grown I’d move them in
@indigo sierra That makes sense...I’ll have to do that then. I guess the spaces the are growing I’ll just put those in the ones that aren’t growing. Would hate to dig them I’ll up and no where to put them.
Hey! Can anyone give me some pointers on how to go about making one of my areas into a Japanese city?
They do need the two spaces when you first plant them, but after the first stage when they grow you can move them back to a space inbetween
I saw a cool video on twt of a Japanese player who made their island into a city
And honestly for the japanese city, id look at actual japanese city photos foe reference and then just have fun with it
mine is turning into Hogwarts slowly
made a little starbucks venue
thats so cute hshs
@fierce ginkgo any tree surrounded on all four sides, won’t grow to be specific. The trees that are growing have space on the outside so that’s why they grow
Not that there’s anything wrong with it, but does anyone else find it weird seeing alot of Americans make their Islands “Japanese theme”? I mean the items and stuff are in the game for a reason I just find it interesting
Why is that villager home isolated on the other side of the map lmaoooo
because
I’ll just have to move the ones that grow backwards and the nursery ones forward in the spaces that do grow. Thanks for the help.
Right? Its mostly American teenagers doing it pfft
lmaoo
Np dude^^
@indigo sierra oh he’s a mouse that hates everyone
Rippp
how should I design a tiny island within a bigger island with my house at the middle?
split into 5 parts
anyone else have an ugly map but cute island?
@indigo sierra he’s my pfp he looks like a drunk man
yes @kindred yarrow
I have literally flattened my island and started over twice now lol
HE LIKES TO PARTY WITH RENEIGH @indigo sierra
BAHAHAHA
and omg dragon ball
lmao
that is a good idea
would can I get your guys opinion on my island if I sent posted some snippets
do it
sorry my English was terrible LOL
whenever he’s crafting he says my old age is getting in the way of me crafting
sure and anyone wanna come see my wip island? im at 5 stars but its ugly
like my place is fairly normal but there is this island in the middle the has some sort of mysterious vibe
Making a second level for my resort here, inclines will be on each side of the brick road here. Should I put them sideways or straight up?
and I want to decorate it
make it like a cabin in the woods
maybe 
or like an enchanted forest vibe
ooooh!
Is there anyway to zoom in on the town map?
then the way you can link it is either normal path or bridge or even skipping stones
I might do that
@wanton kernel take screenshot and zoom in on that. No way in game I believe
That’s so stupid...
@manic furnace If I understand right I think you should put them straight up
Like seriously? It’s a grid.
I thinkt he most annoying thing, is the museum being 7 wide.
I’m tryna position my house properly and that’s gonna drive my OCD nuts.
what kind of decore for the island though
Its nintendo, what to do you expect? Good mechanics? HAH
🙄
how big is your island mudkip
does anyone have inspo pics of an orchard, that would be fantastic
which one? my starting island or my house island?
house
Do people usually put their house on the 2nd or 3rd level?
ive seen 2nd a lot
mines on a 3rd lvl with a fountain in the middle
Yeah same
rich estate vibe
fairly big @deep spear
i usually work off the grid size or try to
another thing you could do mud is make it different lvls
use natural incline and maze it around
I need a tunnel system in this game so bad
that would be useful
im 95% done w my island, its 5 stars and i would be happy to let anyone come and look around for inspiration and to shop!
im thinking of restarting my island is ugly i need more water
Any ideas on how to turn this into like a magic forest-type thing?
@mystic maple some cute forest-y path qr codes would work wonders for that i think
wrong chat mate
??? @agile dawn
put a gnome under the falls
It would be nice is there was a drill tool to destroy cliffs easier...
No it ain’t lol
Anyone wanna visit
Before & After
Dont let your jealousy get in the way of your creativity
Creativity. Is wearing a paper bag lmao
comes in many forms and they dont complain about shit
yep
How do you upload your map to https://eugeneration.github.io/HappyIslandDesigner/ ?
Yessir
scratch that you def can complain, just needs do it
Hey, I wanted to show off some stuff I have been working on:
wow
Can anyone give me some pointers? :3 and also I need help with picking a spot for my campsite! Feel free to give me critique❤️ DM please 😅
@arctic nacelle the lights set it off !
This is my entrance:
any ideas of what I should do here?
If anyone wants to see villager color and house color in one place for #aesthetics,
https://www.reddit.com/r/AnimalCrossing/comments/g9fruu/acnh_list_of_villager_pics_house_pics_for_is_done/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
@arctic nacelle I had a similar idea in mind leading up to my house. Nice job.
i do want the full set of gnomes
does anyone suggest just flattening my island out entirely before terraforming
Some more island progress today!
Anyone wanna visit
picnic time
Cute
“why would you need so many gnomes 🙄” You Wouldn’t Understand
def stone
i like dirt more
going for a woodsy/natural feel
Dirt
Dirt path looks fine, you could try some pebble pathing into it too if you want
stone!
@daring abyss i really like that dirt path look but i also like the stone. maybe try putting leave design overlays on both? to see how they look
@golden igloo or that
Leaves too!!
try scattering this more and it might look more natural
If youre going for a more natural feel make sure to alter the width of your paths and make the shapes more interesting 
ok thanks a lot guys ((: i appreciate it
Here’s my final museum area! I know the quality is bad (no micro SD rip) but I hope you like it. It took me about 5 days with all the terraforming and getting the items for it! :)
Should also mention it’s inspired by LACMA in Los Angeles!
imagine if we could put our houses under bridges
These are my natural paths
it's sand.
The south area is the sandy wasteland area
I feel like if you want natural paths you gotta use custom designs
@woven drift beautiful!
And then up north it leads to the temple ruins
to be fair those paths don't look that natural compared to the straight dirt/stone paths zowee had
i wanna see some pics of someone's natural island!!
you gotta use custom designs yeah ^^
yoo, guys I have question, should I use a road for my housing area or a different costume path?
ya idk if i'ma do that
So what kind of themes are people doing on their islands? I'm curious
Thank you @unique pond also if anyone wants to come look at it my island is open :)
@latent heart Alice in wonderland, space like
what does the road qr look like @wary hemlock ?
Gladys has her own little garden grove 
@latent heart natural/outdoors-y
@woven drift that looks nice! my museum area was inspired by the griffith observatory in los angeles near the hollywood sign!!
same i wanted everything to be symmetrical and city-like but now i decided that looks ugly so i'm goin natural
this is the road one.
@wary hemlock that sounds really cool actually
thats so cool! @vast crystal my island's name is La La Land like the movie so i figured i had to put some LA type thing in there
cool!! :o
can villagers move without your permission
@pastel wasp amiibo glitch I think.
Should I organize my neighborhood or scatter them across the island?
i agree . I prefer organized
sweet thanks! sorry i posted in the wrong channel. I'm currently terraforming and TT-ing back and forth and want to make sure i dont lose anyone ☺ thanks everyone
on WeChat I saw someone with a beautiful Chinese island. don't have any pics though TwT
this is so cute, she's using her yard and its adorable
@mental condor scatter!! Personally for me, scatter them but keep them close
So I just spent all day clearing out and flat landing my whole island....
How do I keep my villagers contained to one section of my island so they dont roam around?
rivers
so how do i line up the houses correctly? i dont have terraforming het since i started over
and fences
If someone could provide an example that would be so helpful
@plucky veldt reddit.
@plucky veldt maybe try fences
It's not your typical double waterfall entrance but here's mine ❤
@mental condor just place the houses where ever, and then build around them. My first two houses i plotted are in the same spot
okee
and should i place the shops beside the plaza?
or space them out but nearby
@plucky veldt villagers don't always walk, btw. They can "teleport" into buildings
@vast crystal wait, can you spread out a rug on the ground outside?
damn
no thats a pattern
@tranquil rivet Is that Hyrule from LTTP?
how tf did you move the airport.
Can’t move airport lol
@arctic nacelle haha no, I just built from scratch
oh lol.
@tranquil rivet Oh, I thought you put your house on the Master Sword
Sorta weird. All the layouts I've seen have the airport in the middle of the bottom.
Now that you mention that, yeah...that is weird lmao
@manic lantern How did you get those present lights? 😮
@wanton kernel it's a December or January reciepe or decoration
@wanton kernel Christmas event
Started working on my forest path!!
My little urban village ✨ 💫
was about to ask the same thing
those cars look so cute
Nova Lights
@hollow dew i think you mean those sexy racecar beds
@woven drift They’re called Nova Lights! You can craft them using star fragments ^_^
oh wait they're beds lool
Lmaoo
Those racecar beds turn on when you lay on them 😂
bed drive me
It’s hilarious
Anyone wanna visit
@humble urchin I like the forest path btw!
oh Jesus sakes
@still mango nty lol, i dont feel like having an aneurysm trying to find the nooks cranny
Looks like an actual maze wow 😳
Just bring a ladder
the paths and detail
It is a maze lol
j e e z
I stand corrected 😂
Ankha matches my work in progress gardens lol
"hizz it's mine"
No matter what I do my island just feels tiny
Just wondering, whats the dimension for villagers house because I wanna do some terraforming
Anyone tryna show off their entrances?
anybody wanna tour? DM me
guys i just sold 12 mom items for 60NMT earlier, i guess i just found my new business practice
I've completely changed the entire map maybe 3 times now
LOL
selling my poor moms gifts, sorry mom. money makes the world go round LMAO
@vocal forum oof lets see a map
Finished my little hybrid farm/workshop/apiary!
Raymond takes the 🎂 tho
judy is the only villager worth her hype, raymond is trash. his house is butt ugly, and all he has going for him is his eyes.
You got points
nice! @viral geyser
i dont understand why everyone likes him, the only reason i would ever take him is to sell him for a quick 1000NMT
Raymond is business, but he is also..
I like the vibe @viral geyser
@still mango i would love to see ur island
Haha Judy came to my island, after I spent 30nmt and quit mystery island
T H I C K
@tawny glacier same lol Raymond is boring to me
@silver sorrel @zinc isle Thanks so much!!
W e e b s
@slow dagger i normally pick villagers based on their houses, but judy is an exception i think shes cute. but raymond is average cuteness. and his house is absolutely HORRENDOUS. like honest to god its the worst thing ive ever seen.
Judy is so sweet
Judy's a bear right?
Yep
Yes, of death
Stitches is the best bear 😌
it looks ok besides the green door
Unpopular opinion: I enjoy Raymonds house
bear x 2 calculation x xe plus carr j plus y k="-
@tranquil rivet this is why people call you useless Aqua
i didnt realize villagers had different houses
Lmaoooo
I love Skye the most cus we share birthdays
im not speaking English am i
kabuki best cranky boi
But Wolfgang 🥴
AYE
Coco has an amazing house
Dose anyone want her if so dm me
I'm scared to see which villager im related to
@graceful vortex wrong channel
Aqua isn’t useless
What should I add to my park
Benches
QR hopscotch pattern?
swinging bench @woven drift
@woven drift Toyboxes and little springy horses
A slide @woven drift
@woven drift Zipper toy
ominous snake
Thanks for the great ideas
Ima extend the park over to the side to have more space
and im the villager ursala
quick question: if you would be a villager who would you be?: Coco, Apollo, Raymond, or Tia
Can you use QR paths to fill in diagonals?
coco
Of those 4, Raymond
Realistically, Raymond
Raymond's real personality: Smug, lazy, watches computer and works all day
there is no ugly villager
aka stan barold
people can have preferences but you don’t need to put down other people’s opinions jeez
@woven drift That’s a big fat lie. Rocket exists.
@wanton kernel whatever clown, i dont really care lol
Bob
I highkey really want bob lmao
Ok but imagine having an opinion and being told to shut up.
my bff has bob
golly imagine that
okay, on a side note, Raymond visited my island in the campsite,, I’m so happy 🥺🥺
haha no @woven drift she got bob in campsite so NO she is not lucky
@brisk minnow I got him from my campsite too! 🖤
Uh
hey soulsip ik the artist your pfp is lol
Same! Love his style
round 2
amity's a guy
LMAO
if you would be a villager: who would you be Bob Judy Hazel or Raymond
campsite
Raymond
can yall keep this outta here its not really related
dude I got a cute ostrich when I thought it was gonna be raymond
@wary hemlock Who?
b somethin
@manic lantern them deers oml so excited to get em in winter
Blanche?
I made this cool waterfall area and I like coming up the area just to get a good view on the area, spying on villagers seeing them do their own thing is so cool
yep
:00 pretty
Also every time I think "I couldn't add more water" I add more water
I gave my villagers halos 😇
This brick bridge is one of my favorites 🖤
u h
woahh that’s sick
lmaooo one time I found marina looking at the pants in the tailor shop
But the trick is how do you get the villagers to actually wear the Halo lol
hyperion really killin his villagers
do I see a body in that layout or is it just me @patent sky
They wear it occasionally
oh you just give it to them and they’ll put it on right away
?
Yeah
like a body in your island layout
I want them to wear the Halo all the time like when Isaac took over the city in Castlevania
@slow dagger God bless Harv
Hopefully someone gets the reference
the head; the nose, the whole enchilada
They put it on as soon as you give it to them. But not every day
Lol where?
@patent sky your rivers kinda look like a messed up person lol i like it
literally your whole island
shit I’m starting to see it
My island barely has any rivers lmaoo
Rivers are life!
._.
i dont have judy but i have robin and she's beautiful
I think you meant Skye
Isn't Robin a boy
Anyone wanna visit
@slow dagger no honey i mean robin
woah is your island a maze??
Robin is a boy
sick dude
Thankssss
😍
The gang’s all here 😳
i thought robin was a flamboyant gay male until this game
@zinc isle they have cookouts???
Wrong channel @agile yarrow
I have the best villagers

barbeque on main plaza 
@marsh ferry You bet they do 🥴💕
@zinc isle howd you get a barbecue into the plaza?
That’s sooo cool
Rasher and Cookie are listening to Gayle sing my heart
They're sitting looking up at her
@barren swift You don’t, some villagers have frequent cookouts
i love everyone in my island except elise 🤢🤢
badass
@brisk minnow yeah she definitely stands out lmao

Count me in 😤
We flexin now

Melba is so underrated :(
Just need spike and zucker, cheri, out with Audie and Diana and we are good
TANGY

Pleasure!
@still mango over my dead body
I never knew that
@still mango look, bashing others preferences wont make yours better

@woven drift no ones bashing. It’s all fun, chill out
@woven drift I LOVE ALFONSO I had him and he’s adorable
boi don't make me come for you
Alfonsooo my guy
I’ve never seen him before, he’s so cute omg-
Alfonso is super underrated
I beat up Tank everyday till he left
What does the inside of Judy's house look like?
sAME- I was never a fan of the jock characters
Stitches is so cute
diner
Anyone know any good chairs for a beach club??
wip
@marsh ferry thank you 😌
Ngl I kinda want Chrissy gone... ;(

Anyone know any good chairs for a beach club??
@whole seal There’s poolside chairs I believe
So Is Zucker. I love the octopi

Molly is my ride or die 🥺
@woven drift Dont bash their preference
Melba deserves everything
here’s my favorite section in my island! we really out here repping squidward’s bold and brash
Melba is so cute 🥺🥺
@still mango now youre bein petty lmao stay mad
@woven drift the hardest choices require the strongest wills
I got melbas amiibo and I was indifferent about her but she’s honestly my fav now
@woven drift wait who’s mad 🤣🤣
rawr!
@pure nimbus 😔 if i could get 11 villagers id snag dobie in a HEARTBEAT love that man
@zinc isle could not find them
11 villagers would be perfect
@whole seal I’ll dm you the trick
@woven drift lol if you end up kicking someone he’s all yours!
Hey guyssss I need help with my island!
I miss Starbucks, so I made my own.
I need a new idea to fill space on my island ;( I feel like I have everything
@zinc isle tysm
I have these annoying gaps of space and don't know what to fill them with
I’d spend the highest amount of nmts I could possibly pay just to get pietro lmao
You guys are so creative omg
@pure nimbus i cant kick my homies out after all we've been thru im sorry
@woven drift who you got
@coarse arch that’s cool
@still mango thanks!
Ninja bunny
my god roll villager roster would just be Judy
my headcanon is kyle cyd and static are in a band
and only Judy
@woven drift great lineup
also i didnt buy raymond, i found him randomly after 3 nmt trying to find a jock lol
Okay but I want more than just 10 villagers
^
ive seen raymond like 3 times already rat keeps coming back
soon enough they might upgrade it idk
same but also, wheres the space 4 that on my map 
hoping
@zinc isle I would love 2 more villagers
@woven drift I found Raymond after 50 tickets worth of island hopping! Also my boy snake is underrated
I’m really out here about to spend all my nmts just to find pietro on a mystery island
I need like at least 20 more so I cant do anything to my island
Snake is so cool looking. I love unique villagers
i got snake after using my final 8th ticket, i couldve gotten lucky but risked it
so happy i did
@woven drift snake was one of my OG two
BROOO JEALOUS
my friends really hate snake for some reason, he’s so cool looking-
Someone give me ideas please I'm at a loss!
@dry haven no harm in adding a sports court
I don't have one of those! That's a good option!
@dry haven That area can be really cool as a Reading Nook/ Area with Bookshelves, warm fireplaces, plants, etc
@dry haven maybe an outdoor cafe if you don’t have one
i have a park on my left side
Maybe a reading area cafe combo?
Sounds cool!
its a tradition for ever visitor to take a pic with the robot hero
@woven drift that’s so DOPE
@dry haven yeah kinda like a coffee shop where people can just chill and read with a hot beverage
I need waterfall entrance ideas..
I have a little park area near my resident areas with vending machines and all that, but no cafe
@dry haven ty! im changing it season by season, last was spring so im planning for summer haha
wow the colors really make it pop, that’s honestly so gorgeous-
So creative and well put together.
yeah im super stoked for fall to arrive
does anyone have pics of how they decorated around residential services? in need of inspo
My entrance // I added a picture of me and my boyfriend & ngl is acc adorable // also ft cookie and melba singing bubblegum kk in the back
The in game filters really be hittin different thooo
The film filter slaps
@zinc isle PERIOD, i love the film one the most tbh
AGREED
Otsusuki welcoming you to Destiny Island
I got some Qr's from reddit and made these as well, the tailor shop will be moved by tomorrow
Okay I need these
Real or fake?
planning to open my island to yall once i complete EVERYTHING
Would anyone eat ramen or sushi and also read in the same place??
@pure nimbus real
@dry haven id do that anywhere lol
the fake one is smiling
Might wanna replace Zucker! But Idk who to replace him with, any ideas? :< also my dream team is finally coming into place I'm so happy T^T
@dry haven 100%
@pure nimbus that ones real!!
Yee I think I'm going to do it, will post one day when I finally find the bookshelf recipe
@solid sentinel with your aesthetic id keep him ngl him june(?) the brown bear and the brown squirrel look awesome but if you had to, try whitney
Y’all make my island look like trash lmao
@woven drift I'm not into the wolves!! T^T but thank you! i love them T^T
@solid sentinel it b like that, maybe dotty?
@solid sentinel Julian? His house is GORGEOUS
i'd probably go with another bunny, chipmunk, or cat lol since you have three cubs and two of the others
:00 I have dotty! she’s so cute but her eyes sometimes turn red and it freaks me out lmao
@zinc isle I HAF HIM HE WAS TOO SASSY FOR ME!!!
@brisk minnow she's got a bad side
HE WAS GORGEOUS THO
maybe ruby?
BRING THE SASS BACK 😂
ruby is cute, maybe someone like blanche would be cute there and matches the palette
Marshall is already too sassy for me sometimes I want to choke him HAHA
lmaoo
just didn't think a different species would work too well for what they already have lol
@solid sentinel Diana?
I thought Lopez was going to be too sassy for me but tbh I adore him now
@still mango ohhh shes a cutie
I have her
@woven drift oh she is very pretty!!
i have blanche 😄 and i decorated her yard with more kimonos
This is what I’m most proud of in my island uwu
@solid sentinel and if you dont like her outfit you could akways give her a white kimono
i only want one of any villager species so it was super tough choosing between her and phoebe, whom i already had when i found blanche on a mystery island
@random fern #happy-home-designs
thankfully my bf is willing to take phoebe so i can still visit her whenever i want 
@random fern looks pretty
@random fern I love your asthetic
i gotta take more photos lol
Those Raccoon figurines 😍
back onto new horizons i go lol
@woven drift thanks! lool sorry for keeping ya up the entrance just looks nice
@solid sentinel I made this list of villager pics with houses so you can see the colors all in one place!
area im currently working on
@smoky flint omg tysm!!
@woven drift Wait what is that statue called oml
@solid sentinel yeh!! I just finished it so I'm trying to get it out there lol. The files are big tho
i gotta know the statue name
@woven drift it looks beautiful!
Time to shop on Nookazon
@woven drift tbh I always liked the bat wings of the fake better
what makes it fake?
what fae said, it has bat wings instead of angel/bird wings
@hollow dew it's not the real design of the irl one, has bat wings (in new leaf). This one is just mirrored
the entrance from my airport:D not too saucy but i still like it 
that makes it cooler tho
Simple makes everything cooler tbh
@hollow dew redd sells you fake imitation knockoffs that can't go into the museum, their tell is something visually off. That one is more obvious than some! I got my first buy wrong and I thought I was right 😭
Anyone wanna visit
@still mango is missing no there
What
Pokemon joke
I don’t get it 😫 sorry I’m slow
missingno, the glitch pokemon found in cinnabar
i like the maze everywhere
Yes
😱
I could put hedges on top to make it a little harder to see
Visit my island I am lonely, 4FWD3
bro most of my island is done but i am STRUGGLING with the airport entrance!!
I’m trying to make my rivers kind of curve and I don’t know how to achieve that
^
much more work to do but god does it look nice at night
technically that wasnt the entrance, this is, theres a small island that connects the 2 @hollow dew
to the left of the well is static,, raymond, and alfonso's houses, to the left is the bridge to robin's house, my OC's house and an incline that goes up to see patty's kyle's, snake's, and fauna's houses.
@patent sky thank you
ignore the flick photobombs lol
@rancid veldt it looks good to me
It’s rare to get resident building in a good spot but that seems fine
it looks good!!!
i’m doing a fantasy/magic themed island, u all got any suggestions?
@woven drift the island looks nice, really
mine is abnormally close to the dodo airport so no cool entrance aloud :(
@hollow dew its alright i just worked with the base terrain i got lol
the star lamps are so good
You'll need the ladder no matter what for redd right?
How should I connect these 3 paths? I dunno how I should make it look nice
unless your north shore is exposed
Copy
that kinda hurts to look at lol
@smoky dove just make them diagonal, soften the edges, and make a big circle in the middle and add a fountain
@smoky dove you could put a fountain where you're standing and wrap the paths around it
making a sort of plaza thing before you go to res services
^^
Ok
even add benches an stuff!
@hollow dew nice name
of course
lets gooo
Something like this? ignore the sea bass in bottom left
@smoky dove maybe try to find a custom path to go around the bottom of the fountain? something like a stone foundation, that could make it look nice
@smoky dove you can do aarrow shapes with alternating patterns or create a diagonal pattern yourself. stepping stones might work too
https://twitter.com/horizon0ann/status/1255010801187827712?s=12
i just did this waterfall i love it. good idea for scereny
Are there any 4 block wide arches that can be passable?
Raymond is starting his resolution early
can yall send me south double outlet layouts with terraform. i need advice on my map and ill take any advice 😂
@elfin dawn you can open up the private beach
@smoky dove Somethinf like this could work
Ok, I’ll try something like that
can someone help me with my island design 😔
How can I keep a natural looking river and still have an amazing island? It seems like all the really put together islands with symmetry and perfect spacing have made their rivers all straight.
any tips on whT to do with this area?? pls help 😩
I won’t have too much space to put it since this is right next to my ocean but I can try to make a smaller version
this hurts my eyes
@sinful turtle I ended up capping off one of my river mouths.
Why so much blue I’m confused
What do you all think of putting a neighborhood on the left side? I am STRUGGLING lol been staring at my map for 40 minutes 😭 want to keep the neighborhood more i don’t know town-y and woodsy
It’s because my camera
@earnest wigeon any island design you make can be amazing with your natural rivers 😄
@earnest wigeon i left all my rivers the way they came. i think theyre a fun part of figuring out where to plave everything and once you can make paths you can connect it all to make sense
@earnest wigeon embrace the asymmetry if you’re wanting to keep things natural 🙂
I dunno why it’s making everything so blue
It’s also frustrating that the paths can’t be diagonal
True
@versed wadi im shakin over how good this map is
MAKE PATHS ABLE TO BE DIAGONAL!!!
how about
make bridges able to be built over cliffs
@crimson bramble i think a neighborhood would be really nice on the bottom right side! and near the campsite and museum area could be really woodsy
everyone has such a nice looking map while mine is just all over the place lol. im struggling to make it look nice
the grass is greener on the other side, we all struggle lol
@earnest wigeon there’s a couple of tricks you can do to make your paths curve be diagonal
@versed wadi i literally gaaped oml beauty
ooo those are pretty
mind if i save these as inspo?
my island feels so basic compared to all of this fjskgknsh
samee
mind if i save these as inspo?
@woven drift that’s why I shared 🙂
i mean it literally is since i copied a layout from pinterest
im pretty sure it’s the same size!
Ok, so 4x4?
yeah
Ok thanks!
no problem!
Dimensions for all buildings are pinned
Damn when I see other people’s creations I wanna tear mine down 😭
I hear that a lot, I don’t know what it means
it's so nice! it gives a modern woodsy feel (if that makes any sense) @crimson bramble
@woven drift your house is 5x4 other villagers are 4x4
@visual venture yesss Thank you 😊
oh yeah, i just realized it’s 5x4, (like mcgibbon) sorry! @woven drift
Tada, new museum gardens
Hey guys which eyes should I go for LOL
@patent sky I love it!!
the first eyes!
Thank guys! Just read the pinned messages haah
the kawaii one it is haha
yess haha
i want to have my museum area like a fairy woods type of thing but idk how to do it
i usually look at other people’s creations that are similar to that idea, & island tours on YouTube to find inspiration
i wish something like this was possible in this game
you could have a woods area around the museum maybe!
it would suit my islands style so much
ooo yeah
thats nice!!
@versed wadi ty! Here's a WIP of the ripped up downtown, there's@more to the right but it's a mess
@visual venture star stuff + mushroom lamp + cedar trees + white/pink/yellow flowers. go crazy
You’ve been busy!
ooo fuck i completely forgot about star stuff
even just putting down the star fragments look nice
the problem would be visitors stealing them
im too scared of people stealing them
@patent sky that looks so cute!
Anyone have the picture or link of how to make a natural bridge from terraforming and making it look like a stone bridge kinda?
i hope they add a dream suite thing again soon, it'd be so cool to have people visit ur island without worrying about grief
thats actually insane
How does everyone have their villagers set up? I’m trying to do a lil neighborhood but not exactly sure how I want it.
I need help on how to shape my river
I lost 6-7 hours of the day today to terraforming lol
it looks pale and i hate pale
@tawny glacier i can see and i love it
Terraforming is so sloooooow
And then I end up changing it like 5 times lol
did yall know if u have cliffs on the outeredge there are weeds growing back theree 👀
i started terraforming and i found ALL of them
im worried that theres gonna be new shops opening up after i spent WEEKS terraforming
@sinful turtle
Yeah, it’s a pain. Put a path down behind them
Just not the dirt/sand ones
im tearing down the cliffs so that its easy to go to the secret beach
@chrome prairie add little streams going into taller water falls in north west
how are you guys getting your photos btw? every time i wanna upload a pic from my switch i need to post it to my twitter and delete it immediately
am i dumb or is there no better way of doing this
how are you guys getting your photos btw? every time i wanna upload a pic from my switch i need to post it to my twitter and delete it immediately
@woven drift that's the faster way i think. you could extract it from your memory card too i think but that's more of a hassle
@woven drift
I use my iPad take photo of Switch 🤣
ya i don't know how to do it unless there are images
@sharp stump wayy too much work
@compact wolf extremely based. gonna start doing this
Anyone have advice on how to make a neighbor hood plz dm me
paths
If anyone would like to visit DM me !!!
how are you guys getting your photos btw? every time i wanna upload a pic from my switch i need to post it to my twitter and delete it immediately
@woven drift I've been posting to facebook with privacy setting set to 'only me' so I don't spam my family with AC pics lol.
@fresh cliff putting them all on one side next to beach
so i have a shopping/food area in front of my residential services, i’m not sure if i like it, because it feels really empty
any tips?
waiting for the double full moons
or possible ideas
@versed wadi do you need to link your switch acc in order to do that? i dont want my facebook friends finding my switch acc
@versed wadi do you need to link your switch acc in order to do that? i dont want my facebook friends finding my switch acc
@woven drift you have to link it.
@versed wadi do you need to link your switch acc in order to do that? i dont want my facebook friends finding my switch acc
@woven drift You could set up a second AC twitter. I've just done this
if u want get a sd card
save the pics there and then put it in ur laptop and save them
@versed wadi oh wait thats actually a great idea
Does anyone wanna come to my island and help me figure out certain ways to use the rest of my flowers? Landscaping is hard
i love these tall waterfalls
an AC photo album twitter 
@fringe bolt have you given all villargers their own garden? they love it
Weird question, so I’m planning to put villagers on cliffs without inclines, will they be able to get to ground level?
Im trying to make a LA west coast vibe road w the palm trees but it looks off atm any suggestions on how to make it look better?
Oooooo I like that idea @versed wadi
They teleport (or maybe also have a ladder)
@fringe thicket you should add a lot more palm trees!
@tired perchi havent! Ive like nearly completely covered my island in them, but only 1 villager has her own garden! Thanks! :)
LA is literally cluttered with them its crazy
Yeah I stranded 4 of my villagers on a ledge but they've figured out how to get down (and stand right in front of my terraforming tools)
@fringe thicket reverse your stone tiles so the arched is the main pathway
la or hollywood
im putting filbert's house on the highest level becuz i cherish him and he deserves to be in the garden
im making a high garden
hollywood is in LA
@fringe thicket looks sick so far! adding more hills would fit well i think, having palm trees on different levels would fill out the space nicely as well
yeah its different vibes tho
what do you mean?
I guess more hollywood than like larger LA?
I was looking at rodeo drive as an inspiration lol
silicon valley 😍
i'd watch a few eps of bojack for some landscaping inspo lol

ooo if youre doing rodeo drive, invest in a bunch of ground lights!!
Ty u guys r so helpful lol i was so stuck!!
you can put them in between each palm tree! a lot of beverly hills is like that
good luck! surely post some update pics\
making a cute little beach diner. any tips? kinda stuck 😅
put that chalkboard sign next to teh table
or like in front of the walkway
like the menu chalkboard thingy
can you put paths on the rocks?
yeah you can but idk what 🤔
I have a white one I might scatter around the beach, this one:
what are some areas that i should try to include on my island? like a swimming pool area or orchard
oh thatd be super cute! it would tie in nicely with the rest of your beach
tysm!! going for a pink and white beach theme so it all works out :)) <3
Anyone have the picture or link of how to make a natural bridge from terraforming and making it look like a stone bridge kinda?
@molten sable here is mine. i gave it a mini island
if U need any pink or white flowers lmk..... i have way too many
lmao dw I'm in the same boat, took me 2 hours to purge half of my flowers yesterday smh
@merry glade you will just have to paint them with the stone terraform pattern
Ah okay thanks!
does anyone know why i have dark green grass and dark green shrines when i see other islands people have light green grass and shrines ??
depends on the season
any tips on what to do here? its right off a bridge and right next to me fishing shack on the beach
fish market?
a park?
but how 😩 im having design block lol
Add a load of stalls and display fish on them
oooh i like it
aww like a mini aquarium
@hexed pelican i have a massive park lol
