Can i see some photos? I love horror islands they r hella underrated
a squirtle with no shel-
My island just looks so average yenno, I want to make it out of the box
thats cool
@woven drift I’ve just started my island still looks very average
Ohh i see
Hey average is good too haha
Im looking forward to the end result!
I’m getting all the villagers first
My island isnt the greatest either 😂
average is great but idk seeing themed islands is really nice
LOL they’re pretty tho
their** oop
I’m going for a black horror theme
3 for 3!
With the villagers
I’m thinking about restarting my island and flattening it
can yall post pictures of your favorite villager house exteriors and note who they belong to? i'm trying to get a plan together for the rest of my villagers and i'd like some cool houses
not sure if i like this
i mainly dont like the centre seating area but idk what else to do
This is my neighborhood area @scenic blaze
Yeah i restarted two days ago
And i got terraforming and the nooks cranny the first day i reset
does anyone know how far a bridge has to be from the airport dock?
@shadow flume is this version ok?
If u want to know how u can ask me!:)
@round compass oh thanks! i just mean the houses themselves lol. i just wanna see what villagers have houses that look neat. like how ankah's house is bright yellow
I reset because i felt like i was too far into it and like i just didnt like it so i wanted a fresh start
Oh 💀💀 my bad
Im really happy that i reset though
try to have a plan before flattening
yep
how wide are your guys paths? starting to design my island out and wondering what most people go with
i kind of shift between my path widths
I'm trying to consistently do 2 wide paths
@steep socket i think you're getting somewhere! maybe another log bench on the edge of the blanket on the right, and put another cushion on one of the log benches
yeah i guess two paths r the way to go most of the time
@ember kestrel same for the most part
i've been experimenting with 1-wide lately and enjoying it though
i was gonna put a cushion on the bench but have to wait for it to arrive lol
well just a reminder to myself and everyone here, dont overthink it your island is beautiful okay😤👌🏽
Got my three stars ✨
congrats💞
yay!!!
My latest project is pretty much done but no “official” pics yet bc I’m waiting for the bushes to grow in
Can anyone send me garden inspo 😋
Thats so cute
a break room for the bois
I love natural islands
@scenic blaze love it!
@unkempt badger flower garden?
Psssh, get those guys back to work. At most they make like 5 sales a day!
it looks great at night so when i do have official pics i'll try to get them in the dark lol
Anyone have inspo for a rainbow flower field? Im thinking of making one
@versed wadi they're babies! child labor violation
anyone inspi for entrance?
@manic lantern no more like the lil turnip gardens
late as heck response @scenic blaze but tangy has a cute house!
@boreal solstice oooooo
I love tangy sm
i've never paid attention to tangy tbh but i love that color scheme
Her and fang flirt all the time on my island
thats so precious 🥺 i never really liked nor disliked her but she showed up at my campsite the other day
shes really cute! you’ll love her
Trying to create Godzilla vs Mothra. whew
I come here for inspo, but end up dying inside from how garbage my island is
is anyone able to craft me a bonsai shelf lol
@steep socket i have the recipe but no way to craft the pine bonsai lol
I have the pine bonsai recipe oof
The only thing that keeps me from restarting is my bank ACC and marshal
does anyone have zen or japanese area inspo?
when i reset i had 9 of my dreamies
had a surprise birthday part for my friend last night and made a small picnic area to celebrate
I sold all of them and bought my dreamies for cheap
So like i bought bob for 40, lucky for 50, etc etc
i have pine bonsai tree but no pinecones lol @scenic blaze
@candid plover my whole island is zen/asian themed if you wanna visit for inspo
s t o n k s
@normal walrus could u send photos? Im doing a japanese island too and im lacking inspo
does anyone have a non-asian themed island?
like a cool viking theme, european village theme, etc
japanese/korean theme is so overdone at this point
hey all, does the left side or right side look better?
left
right
anyone has a nice entrance inspiration
Nothing is wrong with islands being overdone oof
I come here for inspo, but end up dying inside from how garbage my island is
@trim tapir i think that all the time but when i have ppl over they say its rly nice 😭 its still trash tho
@acoustic leaf keep both embrace the asymmetrical
ANYONE GOT PINECONES YA GIRL NEED A BONSAI SHELF
one vote for left and one for right and one for both...um
It kind of annoys me when people say that asian islands r overdone but its an asian game so like...
most of the furniture is asian stuff
@normal walrus same here man I need inspiration
Exactly
One of the only things I actually did work on
@acoustic leaf right🙏
Cute!
If I’m making a ruins what fencing should I use? I currently have zen fencing but I’m thinking of swapping it for iron-and-stone
Iron and stone would be great imo
Yea I’m gonna try that ty
Np
My campsite is the best part of my island
I started with a 3 star so I can't really help :/ I don't know what I did
@woven drift see what isabel says you need to do,, add a lot of furniture too!
70 fencing, 100 flowers, scatter a bunch of furniture
Thank you
And weed all the weeds too’ glad to help
Did the house thing send? My internet is always so wack
@trim tapir that looks great. What is the big cauldron/bbq up front?
i just bought 79 mush lamps 😳
I’m convinced weeds don’t matter
It's called the kettle bathtub
Omg do want all those mush lamps😳
Im in south hemi so eventually ill get the recipe😌✨
@granite hemlock you know if you don’t want those mush lamps...👀👀
If u guys want me to craft any mushroom items for free lmk
Meee
You can just tell I did no terraforming except for the museum
@rotund gorge if i have spares u can have em
Yesss ty
It kind of annoys me when people say that asian islands r overdone but its an asian game so like...
@woven drift it's made in asia but that doesn't really make it an "asian" game when it's made for everyone now does it?
Are there mushroom items that are just mushrooms?
Its an asian game so ofc theres gonna be lots of asian islands when the majority of players are from asia lmao
is the internet white since it was made by a group of white men?
what a stupid thing to say lmfao
nothing on the internet should be non-european culturally since it was made by white people
how is an island overdone?💀
Its literally just an idea
Also the internet is different compared to a game sir
Respect others ideas. People can do what they want. Nothing is overdone
Technically it's an Asian game, but they did make it for Americans and such too, so now it's both
ppl can do what they want
yea thats what im saying
so don’t be saying oh this is overdone cause it doesnt really matter
i just think people should have the island have more of an identity than being the "japanese island"
people dont have to do that tho??
Whats special??
thats kinda my point??
@versed wadi I don’t know how big they are though - I haven’t crafted one yet
okay but like whats special??
i made this ‘stage’ area for my pop star villagers!! any ideas of what do add :/
Who really cares what other themes people decide to follow
Exactly
literally anything to make it ur own or unique, just no need to label it as a "japanese" island
its not rocket science, i think??
WHAT LMFAO
can i pls see everyone’s island entrance from the airport !! need inspo
Do you just find wild mushrooms out in the wild during fall? And can you place them back down
@versed wadi You can place them anywhere once picked up on your island 🙂
The main thing is that it’s just easy to make a Japanese themed island
Awesome!!! I can’t wait
Like there’s a lot of diy and furniture that makes it possible to execute
@versed wadi They’re spawn every where randomly 🙊
True
my forest game is gonna be ON POINT in the fall
holy heck im dumb
Hello, I know about that game only because of Doom: Eternal meme. Is it good?
So what did y’all think of the island design
there. ignore the empty space in the back ty https://twitter.com/lil_octoling/status/1256734800267755520
@warm sinew I like the game but ur going to get only positive answers here
Hello, I know about that game only because of Doom: Eternal meme. Is it good?
@warm sinew great game. i'm in tons of debt but like... great game.
it's also not the place to ask this question but in summary. the game is a "take it slow and enjoy the small moments" simulator
there's a lot of weird UI things that could be improved but I won't go into specifics
@boreal solstice i like it but move the grave stone to the middle or to the top and put down some paths there and it will look better
who says u have to take it slow the game is a do whatever u wanna do simulator
i dont even know where to start when it comes to terraforming
U should def plan it out
Can anyone design me an island? 😭
i meant the game is wholesome. I tt lol @zenith oriole
Just watch a bunch of youtube videos and see what you want to incorporate into your island most
yeah but when it comes to spacing and symmetry
@versed wadi I have mush partition if you need it
Dw you can fix the uncentered parts
@woven drift so true
I'm going to be grinding for fall recipes and ill provide crafting services If you guys are interested
I've seen a lot of videos and I thought I knew how I wanted my residential area to look and be laid out, but I changed my mind today cause with the way I did it it just takes up so much space
It doesnt have to be perfectly centred tbh, theres many beautiful islands where the rs isnt centred with the entrance but they managed to fix it
oki ty
And also don’t focus on it too much!:)
i will keep that in mind
Can somebody share what their floral garden looks like? I have tons of flowers and I dunno how to arrange them
sure ill send a vid
how big are villager houses
Uhh lemme see
the more i stare at my map the more i hate my island
6x6 i think
its on the pinned post, 4x4
how big are villager houses
@fringe carbon
4x4
do yall think its better for all your villagers to be in one area
@small geyser
I try to keep my villagers kind of close to each other
mine are spread outish lmfaooooooooooooooooo
Not necessarily all in a row but at least easily accessible because I look for their DIYs daily and it’s easier when I don’t run around my entire island. But that’s for me
i saw this a while back and i really want to do this w my island's entrance.. but my airport isn't in the center of my island so it'd look weird. should i reset my island just for this ,,
i hate it
Love this tour and how it brings joy to its visitors. The island representative was also very welcoming. We weren't able to tour his house as it's not yet done, but the island has it all~
🌟 Let's tour your 5-star island! DM me here: htt...
@manic lantern oh wow haha wow
WAITT CELESICA
ahhh i want to but im not creative enough sdhfshdf
like i wanna split my island into half rural + half urban
just try!
@ivory salmon is this your island
@ivory salmon i love your island tours sm
@manic lantern Nope, I do island tours ^_^ and share them here for ideas
I like that diner beside the falls
ohh okay I was about to say I like the intro haha
My island is destroyed haha
I was watching your stream earlier lmao
i was curious because all of you have such cool islands and i wanted to work on it (itll take hours whxhdidbd!), what order did you guys go in to terraform?
what theme are u going to be going for this time?
maybe you could visit my island once its finished xD
like did you flatten everything or did you remove all lakes orr
@dawn plaza i kind of switched between cliffs and rivers
But it's on my channel too, if you wanna check @manic lantern
@dawn plaza I removed rivers that were annoying first
maybe you could visit my island once its finished xD
@manic lantern Yes of course! Just send me a DM~
@dawn plaza most people who flatten their islands really regret it. my recommendation is to start small and work on one area at a time
Ya
Is this channel the best spot for decorating questions?
Yee
my friend sent me their layout to base mine off of loosely because its theirs, so idk how to go about this ahdhdjd
what theme are u going to be going for this time?
@woven drift oh cool, i'm going for something that I don't know if possible haha
oo i see
Oh that’s a cool layout
this map fr pissing me off
Anyone have entrance ideas? I need a lot of help! Path codes, flowers, terraforming, anything!
yeah! im just super stressed bc i havent even decorated outside well i mean i put a toilet by the beach but thats about it so im a novice at cool towns
@dawn plaza it's beautiful but personally i think it would be a pain to use, you don't have enough inclines for all those cliffs so basic navigating would require a ladder all the time
this map fr pissing me off
@sly stream that looks great bro wtf
it’s like... why would i spread my houses out like that
Just terraformed 2/3s of the island and it was well worth it with the space now.
this map fr pissing me off
@sly stream this is nice !
@idle sierra omg i love that
lmfaooo thank you guys i’m just getting kinda frustrated w it
@scenic blaze can you share with us more cliffs inspo lol
my friend sent me their layout to base mine off of loosely because its theirs, so idk how to go about this ahdhdjd
@dawn plaza tbh i had the same issue and i just followed it pIXEL BY PIXEL
or whats your twitter again
how would i go about planning my island ? i’m super uninspired and also i’m so new to the game
Its so hard making layouts accurately
true its very incline heavy so i was considering having all the houses in a neighborhood fashion to avoid that trouble or smth..
thank you for the advice yall i might pop in here a few times
Just got back from a hike, and I have loads of ideas now. Time to get to work.
One little mistake and so many changes could happen and you have to restart the area all over again
yes mcgibbon please share with us
@woven drift thank you! It's definitely a wip but it took probably 19hrs to terraform the whole back map to three tier haha
i wish there was a faster way to terraform i tried with my river last night and i felt dead inside because it took years to do a super small section. yall are the most powerful people on the server i swear
i just like force myself to do it
@manic lantern https://twitter.com/sedumisland
cause i think about the end result and think it will be worth it in the end tbh
Alright, so I plan on having most of my houses somewhat close together to create as much as a costal town feel as possible. Does anyone have tips for making a good town environment and actually detailing it, or any images I can use for reference? I’ve finally moved my villager houses away from the area and now I’m ready to set it up.
my recent stuff is all WIP so i don't have a ton of new stuff there rn
Turns out the woods near my house is basically an IRL version of my island 
ooo
i tried at 4 am so OOF maybe thats why i felt so numb and grumpy doing it.
i was considering a blue theme tho..
@versed wadi does most of your ideas come from your surroundings?
I feel like a clown, I terraformed my island 3 times now and I hate it every time
Aw dw you’ll get there
Which is a shock, because I thought I lived in suburbia.
this is from mayor-mayumi on tumblr but i do love this aesthetic so much
Fairy core is cute
should i restart my island. i’m terraforming for ages now and still just doesn’t look natural and stuff and my villagers are just rly bad ahahaha
its so gorgeous and soft looking!
@quartz flame did u try decorating when u terraform? I terraform and decorate and terraform a bit when I decorate.
when you just terraform it looks bad
Im probably going to make a fairy area in my island just because ive always wanted to do it. Its really pretty
I feel like I’d regret restarting
I reset and tbh it feels great
Was doing a construction and coco all of a sudden just sing 🥺
i love the whole witchcore and fairycore aesthetic thats making a rise now, i remember it back in wild world and how difficult it was to do it and now we’re here
fresh start, also its simple to get terraforming in a day so if u need tips lmk
But that’s also BC I spent 200 hrs already and i dont TT
i love the whole witchcore and fairycore aesthetic thats making a rise now, i remember it back in wild world and how difficult it was to do it and now we’re here
@dawn plaza omg same fr fr
@quartz flame did u try decorating when u terraform? I terraform and decorate and terraform a bit when I decorate.

@terse terrace I actually haven't used my decorations now that you mention it
my friend sent me their layout to base mine off of loosely because its theirs, so idk how to go about this ahdhdjd
@dawn plaza this island can't be realized I think, Because max number of inclines allowed is 8
awesome. I hope that changes some things then :)
@versed wadi does most of your ideas come from your surroundings?
@woven drift I like to go camping/hiking, so it's kinda based on where I want to be, not necessiarly where I am right now 😆
I have this habit of terraforming first then decorating, I haven't tried decorating halfway
tom nook voice yesyes
i planned on loosely basing it off of it so i dont have to have as many inclines and stuff, but i love the overall feel of it
Ive never been camping so animal crossing helps me cope with that lmao
it makes me more terrified i mean imagine the scorpion sprinting at u...no thank u
omg that reminds me
has anyone made a music festival? , my music scene is good but the rest is a mess i need tips
I saw a tarantula and it was like running into a wall, i pulled out my net it turned around and it made me faint bruh
is there a limited amount of bridges and inclines?
Im so glad i can finally farm tarantulas man yall north hemi people get the best stuff first😔
yes, 8 each
so 8 bridges and 8 inclines
right?
i haven't seen a scorpion yet i can't wait
my island is so freaking busy though i don't think i'll find it until it's too late
yes @woven drift
does anyone know a place where i can plan out my island, because i kinda wanna change the whole layout and its gonna take weeks to finish
I haven't seen a spooky bug since I started building.
I saw a scorpion the other night but it was up against a wall so my net hit the wall and I just—
👉👈 idk how to improve...... idk if the white even fits.........
hey can anyone with this same island layout give me some ideas on what to do with the main part of my island? the airport is so close to my resident services and it’s off center and it just looks weird
and yh forgot to ask what should i do with free space that i have on my island
@barren karma make the bench face the fountain also add lights
Can i see your guys' entrances for ideas 😅
does the white scheme look weird with the brick??
i just dont wanna use stone, the brick is so much more of a cheery vibe
Any good garden ideas for breeding flowers?
Need help! Any ideas how to make the end of my stream not look weird
round it off into a pond, maybe
there isnt much you can do without a river mouth sadly
Does anyone have orchard layouts? I’m looking for inspiration
I’m looking for pictures of town areas for ideas, where can I find good ones?
@untold patrol i agree that a good option is to round it off into a pond. if you don't want to do that, you could also put something large in front (a house or a tree or something) to hide it
@cerulean nimbus mine isnt anything special, but theres a little water pump and grid and some leaf piles
I’m looking for pictures of town areas for ideas, where can I find good ones?
@upbeat nexus What sort of town area? residential? shopping?
my orchard is purely non-native fruit divided into four sections
Residential, I’m probably going to go for something hilly
I was complaining about how small my island is and I just demolished my MUSEUM area and bro I don’t know how to use space properly 😭 look at all this land 😭😭
Does anyone have an somewhat urban neighborhood they can share ahh
@polar iris here’s my entrance!
@barren karma I would turn the benches towards the fountain. The white looks good. Lanterns on each end of bench. Then more flowers on the corner perimeters. Adding more flowers will help soften the red brick and blend in the benches.
@swift stag cheese and rice! my jaw just hit the floor!
@swift stag you have such a good eye for the lil details
@barren karma why not make the hearts white or purple?
Hey guys! what would you put on the overlooking cliff and on this small island? would love opinions
I’m really just looking for a place to find cool decorations in general
ah.... maybe, if I find a cute brick design!! thank you both!!!
uhm, although the purple parts you marked summs
how would i go about placing flowers there if theres brick-
I mean you can just use a white/purple custom to put over the already made heart
Will pay 15 nmt to make my island better
Can you do diagonal waterfalls?
mmh, that's what I mean! sorry sorry
@gray lake nope
what can i do here ? i really dont know what to do in this 2 place
its just in front of my house
@barren karma white brick hearts would be so sweet
@low drift if you post asking for specific advice we will give you plenty for free
im scared itll contrast too much, but I'll try it!! tysm guys!
@versed wadi You’re the best!! 🤗
@barren karma it looks like there’s space for you to add a few grass squares and still have red brick walkway around it
@scenic blaze Thank you so much! It’s sometimes a bad thing, altering non stop 🤣
it doesnt work that way @low drift
Anyone do an outdoors arcade?
@hot monolith how
It was too foggy on my island before I was struggling to see so I had to TT 🤣
I'm gonna need to go on a hunt for all the different fruit boxes.
Love the park I made (downloading others custom designs) but it’s very frustrating having no custom slots left!!
dont know what to fix
dont know what type of island you want
etc
@versed wadi I can drop them off whenever you need them 🙂
maybe these would look cute for the hearts? or something simpler, or i could use them as my main paths. raaaah i cant decide
@versed wadi You can catalogue them 🙂
What fence should I use
genji & pekoe lil zen neighborhood...
Anyone have any collections of town decorations for inspiration? Really anything will help, I’m trying to do a small-town residential area focused in a small space and don’t know where to start
@scenic blaze what if i make a bridge there?
@woven drift That is gorgeous!
@woven drift oooo! i really like the themed neighborhood!
@swift stag Thank you, I'll grab them when our play-times finally align. I can't get on the switch this evening. 😞
ty!!!! my whole island is very woodsy n natural but i figured those two deserve smthn a lil more oriental so i made them an area!!! (adding a lake behind the houses and theres a zen garden before the neighbourhood)
@versed wadi Is it possible to send them to you via card attached? I can add you on switch
i’m probably just going to have a big neighborhood, but i really liked the themed ones
Any gardens I can see for some inspiration?
There's some nonsense about one having to visit anothers Island first I think before you can send post?
does anyone have a carnival area that can see for inspiration?
@untold patrol you'll have to make the river wider to add a bridge
@versed wadi I’m sure that may have been the case. I just wasn’t 100% sure, but definitely whenever we’re on at the same time
For those of you with super foresty towns, how do you block that out? Do you just build it up in game rather than with a map planner?
The northern half of my island is just going to be a densely wooded village with all of my houses but I have no idea where to start.
genji & pekoe lil zen neighborhood...
@woven drift love that mini neighbourhood 🙂
a new view of my new nookfront
Little plant shop
love that
woah! i love the plant shop!
@scenic blaze way too good!
that’s a really neat way to use panels
@scenic blaze I keep putting off doing something fun with the Nooks shop. That looks amazing though.
@versed wadi as soon as i realized it would be a good place to dump a bunch of my unused orange flowers it all came together lol
@molten sable Thank you 👏
@swift stag you make me want to get more into custom designs 😭 it's crazy how creative you can get
i'm trying to hold off til my main structures are finished though so i can keep my custom slots empty for as long as possible
Those log stepping stones are 🔥
i'm trying to hold off til my main structures are finished though so i can keep my custom slots empty for as long as possible
@scenic blaze 100% this.
I want to do a final detail pass when I think I'm 95% done.
Let me know if you both like any of the custom designs I have used. I have them saved and ready to share @scenic blaze @versed wadi
but then I think it's going to be a final 5% takes 50% of the time.
@swift stag what other custom designs do you have?
What was the name of this book ...
@molten sable I actually don’t use many, I have about 5 main ones I use around my island 🙂
y’all are so creative i feel so bad about my island rn 😔. time to demolish it
@vital shard noooooooooooooooooooooo
@buoyant garden I need those book shelves! 😍😍😍😍😍
let it inspire instead of make you feel bad about yourself
everyone decorates at their own pace and with their own style
anyone got any good park ideas with satll markets
lulu right on time
hey guys, how much space on your island did you leave for your flowers + fruit orchard, if you have them? (preferably tell me the space in tile units)
Lulu is always ready to spread positivity!
i really wanna be able to breed all the flower hybrids but i have no clue how much space im gonna need for that :((
@buoyant garden I need those book shelves! 😍😍😍😍😍
@swift stag I can craft as many as you want, I finally got the DIY this morning
the zen area is pekoe approved , we did it bois
at least one square on the entire map @clear python
im doing the same thing too
i regret leaving pekoe on an island during week one 😭
anyone has a wedding spot? please dm me a photo of it🥺
@terse terrace ooh okay - is that just for flowers?
yep
alright, thank you! good luck with yours <3
thank you! you too
@golden zodiac this vid has one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sezjCZEKUEc&t=1829s

thanks! @clear python
to repost an earlier question i had - can yall send pics of your favorite villager house exteriors? like the house themselves not the decorations. i'm trying to base who i want on my island on how their houses look!
@versed wadi We going to have a big trade of items!! 🤪
For those with really woodsy islands where do you put all your houses?
I'm afraid to go
@scenic blaze there's a shared google drive with them all in
oooo
2 secs
@buoyant garden That’s adorable!!
you're the bomb
@scenic blaze in #tour-guide there is a Link to a shared Google doc of the house exterior
@scenic blaze I love beau's so much, sorry for old pic
thank you i love you all
so i saw smth ( i think on facebook ) that you need a certain amount of non fruit trees in order to get the 5 wasps, 7 bells, & 2 furniture items so i’m assuming you need 14 non fruit trees? or am i wrong?
also… I've kinda started glitching the exteriors. I've got Lolly living in Bianca's house 🙂
@buoyant garden That’s adorable!!
@swift stag Thank youuuu
i think my cafe is pretty good? lots of inspiration from a certain someone but i think it turned out pretty good 🙂
@buoyant garden thats actually smart use of the moon
Does anyone have any inspiration for a flower breeding garden? I can’t seem to get mine looking good 😔
btw i’m jk my island has been flat for like 3 days cos i’m trying to take inspiration and prefer a clean canvas hehe 😌
but for y’all have beautiful islands
Does anyone have any inspiration for a flower breeding garden? I can’t seem to get mine looking good 😔
@kind stream
I have something but it's not great
Anyone have ideas for an entrance of an island
@kind stream you could put a bunch of cedar trees around the flowers
I’m starting to work on a residential area? Is this looking good so far?
@swift stag the tree stumps are so cute!! are they custom?
need ideas for this area, already have a restaurant, garden + zen garden, music area, bee honey place (?), campsite, stargazing area, library, and workplace. pls help ;-;
Might actually rework it into a forest kinda thing hm
Wedding spot 🤪
@stray hound Yes they sure are. I will forward the code to you in a few minutes ❤️
@crude juniper a little fishing area in a foresty would look nice
@ionic dock that looks gorgeous! Wow.
can resident houses be built at the edge of a cliff? like so:
@clear python One spacing away from edge
aa okay
Entrance to the museum
@mortal marlin love that idea so much, ty!! huge help < 3
Ideal path width?
@mortal marlin love that idea so much, ty!! huge help < 3
@crude juniper i only got that idea because i need to fix mine glad i could help lol
bushes aren’t fully grown but whatever lol
that looks really good
@strong trench damn, what an art!
@swift stag thank you haha
cemetery path
Random inspo, not mine.
Blue roses are selling well ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Random inspo, not mine.
@boreal patrol
It's just wonderful !!
wish you could rotate buildings in this game
that’s so cute!
Tysm!~
guys does anyone have any black garden lanterns? i’m drying rn nobody will trade w me
I have created a “theme park” that transitions to an orchard/park but I would love any ideas. Thank you. Btw sorry my hand is kinda shaken 😅
@woven drift aww looks great! good use of the lattice fencing
also you guys r all so talented i’m embarrassed abt my island now
same honestly
Ty! I only have the main part of my island done right now, but I'm super proud of it! @scenic blaze
i havent unlocked terraforming yet
Respect to those who have a theme. My theme is "island"
Here's some more areas!
my box fort gonna be epic tho

Get da fort
Hi can someone post picture of your islanders neighborhood. I want some space around the houses . But i need some inspiration 🙂 ty 🙂
@late ruin @tribal jackal this is my neighborhood area, this video is old so many of the decorations have changed and all my fencing is hedge fencing now. but you can get an idea for what it looks like https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1251605634421673984
I'm still tweaking decor, but I wanted to give a tour of my cozy and personalized residential area :) #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch https://t.co/hkU24fTwrS
wow!!
@patent sky you caught me stealing your role 
Hahahaha pls spread positivity
So cute 🙂
@scenic blaze so cute!! i like the idea of an incline & making some of the houses higher!
Animal crossing is not a competition lol
Entrance inspiration?? Please help
Extra style or no?
does anyone have mushroom items and are not charging a kidney for it 😭😂
I shall redesign my whole island. And want them on lvl 2 or 3 maybe in the back . And i don’t know it i should put my houses diagonal or vertical 🙂
do y’all think you can have too much water on an island or is that just personal preference??
Also thank you for the help!!
Y...yes?
Personal preference^ you do you boo
Yes 🙂
a lot of water is nice imh but i like skinny rivers 😍
@native plaza there is no such thing as too much water
lulu is the queen of water
Skinny thicc river
I wish I saved the reddit post where the dude's island was 95% water hahaha
yes. @swift stag
I'd like to say no animals were harmed in the making of this video.. But emotionally, they definitely, definitely were.
So while everyone is enjoying the newly released Animal Crossing New Horizons, I took it upon myself to flood my island.. Just to see what happens, and just...
thank u guys !! since i don’t have access to the diy recipes for the design i originally wanted i kinda wanna do a lot of water with paths & stepping stones leading everywhere & then plots of land for trees & flowers !!
He had everyone in like an 18 x 18 space
the.
How much space do you guyes use outside the villagers house if u have a fence ?
hawaii part ii : Reverie Isle
my fences in that video are 7x7 @tribal jackal

@tribal jackal

@mortal marlin what's bad about that?
My café in progress!
I need to change the color on the stand to something a bit darker
@versed wadi i don’t know its just my opinion
@past jetty maybe add a second stall for desserts?
Maybe, if it'll fit. I have a mom's homemade cake that I was going to use here so
I have a 4 star
Me but stars don't matter
@past jetty here’s how mine came out, I do really like yours though
Oh I love those chairs, I wanted to use them but I don't have the tables to match yet
i'm tempted to do a second island of dogs vs cats. split it in half and have a load of propaganda posters against the oposing faction on each side.
Omg PLEASE DO THAT
great big wall down the middle
omg I love that idea
how long does it take to build an actual decent lookin island
@mortal marlin sorry if this is annoying it how did you get the big sign😳
i’m on 200 hours and i’ve barely started
@lime bane if you get a simple planel then customize it
ooo ty
im bad at spelling lol
i just recently got the game its been like 5 days
Anyone got any campsite inspo they could share? Feeling a little stuck for ideas atm
I have created a “theme park” that transitions to an orchard/park but I would love any ideas. Thank you. Btw sorry my hand is kinda shaky 😅
@delicate scroll here's mine as of yesterday https://twitter.com/pipwyn/status/1256579044197445633
i cant decide what to do with my entrance, any ideas?
@delicate scroll here's mine as of yesterday https://twitter.com/pipwyn/status/1256579044197445633
@versed wadi ty!!
Do you guys think the rock fences look like stone fence or hedges???
Hedge or stone fence?
my zen area atm, i know it's small and i don't like it but i feel like this small area could fit a zen garden
@granite granite I like the idea of hedges, but that’s just my opinion!
@chrome prairie could you extend past and keep the brick?
@plucky sapphire thats really cute lol
does anyone have some pictures of residence areas? in desperate need of inspo
Thanks :DD
Person who provides me with the best layout that I can apply to my island will get 10 NMT, want something creative and good looking thag doesn’t require INTENSIVE terraforming
@mortal marlin i came up with an idea to make an open fence zen garden that will have access to the part of the junction of the rivers
make your own island that’s the point of animal crossing...
@chrome prairie what do you plan to build to the right of the garden
no idea
Completely tore my island apart a couple of days ago, here’s my new favourite part.. Panda forest! 💖
i want to build a kid playground, a musical section with seats and instruments
@bronze lagoon i centered five of my hosues around a fountain
when you try to buy some stuff for part of your island and someone asks for 80nmt for it 😭
here, did little tweaks atm, so that it will be clearer to see inside
berlin wall but its animal crossing
@frosty spruce what are you trying to buy lol?
@opal veldt that looks really good! thanks
mush furniture 😭
just wait until fall bro
doesn't everyone get the mush rug?
i love mushroom stuff but they’re so expensive i’d rather just wait
i need to go to south hemi islands to catch some fish that comes in fall
I'm having trouble decorating around the museum. Can you give me some advice on how to decorate this place?
any turnip farm inspo?
@ornate compass put some water falls around it and have a bridge bring you into it
Any natural looking entrances?
I wish custom paths showed on the map. I think id have to tear it all up and place it over normal paths over again which is gonna take so long
Oops the pic is upside down LOL
I wish custom paths showed on the map. I think id have to tear it all up and place it over normal paths over again which is gonna take so long
@plucky sapphire when you unlock terraforming. You can use custom design on top of paths, so it shows
Yeah i have terraforming xDD
anyone have pics of cliff side villager houses
I put custom roads everywhere but they dont show sadly and ill have to redo it all
oof
Yeah i have terraforming xDD
@plucky sapphire you have to put it on top of a normal path
Cafe area by the beach ♥️
anyone have pics of cliff side villager houses
@queen nexus on top of cliffs? or in front of?
i guess either
Ill probaby do one street at a time
Ill probaby do one street at a time
@plucky sapphire yeah. Just gotta lay down any regular path, then use the custom path button to put the custom on top of the regular
i got rid of rosie for bob and i dont know how i feel
@versed wadi either is fine
bob is the best
ack
That's baxked up to the edge of a cliff on my island
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EXHEKmKU8AAk6jk?format=jpg&name=large i'ma man with...a plan
Museum entrance ♥️
they're directly in front of one
that shows it better
Hi !
i;m entirely elevating the back part of my map and then i'm going to create a mid walkway that goes <>. put housing tier tier 2 & tier 3 on left
I'm new here and i came for help with terraforming
i've been playing since april 1st and didn't want to touch it cuz...i kinda suck at creation
Can you show me your outdoor shop's decoration?
but i tried today, and i fear i destroyed my island
anyone have any outside cafe/dining area pictures?
Anyone know a way t o change the way vilager homes look?
Anyone have farms that hasn’t been posted yet here?
Anyone know a way t o change the way vilager homes look?
@coral cloak I don’t think you can
@coral cloak outside or inside?
Can you show me your outdoor shop's decoration?
@raven kindle
Caught marshal singing KK Bubblegum lol
outside
I wanted to create a “red rocks”-like venue. I don’t have a drum set or synthesizer to add yet, but does anyone have any suggestions for how I could enhance this section?
Anyone have farms that hasn’t been posted yet here?
@sharp stump it's only possible with amiibos and time travel. and it's a glitch so might get patched
@manic lantern I play this song everywhere and he always sing it haha
@hardy pivot nooo you didn’t! With terraforming there are so many opportunities and a lot of trail and error. Just keep going and you can get it! What theme are you going for?
can yall show me your maps with the river that meets at the south
@manic lantern That's nothing. The clown villager will sing the shit out of that song.
Villager remover. May move it to a more open space.
I have alot of empty space what sound I make it into
@hardy pivot nooo you didn’t! With terraforming there are so many opportunities and a lot of trail and error. Just keep going and you can get it! What theme are you going for?
@zinc hull i wish i coulod go for a EDO-style island, sophisticated and yet natural japanese style
Looking for museum entrances
I can show you mine. But mine's a tad boring, and waiting on shit to grow
can someone please help with this?
What should I make with my empty space?
@coral cloak I hate the clown villager
I have created a “theme park” that transitions to an orchard/park but I would love any ideas. Thank you. Btw sorry my hand is kinda shaky 😅
ahh I don’t have anything I can show for inspiration for that. Maybe ask around for inspiration? I know there are a lot of things on Twitter and such @hardy pivot
it's coming along well!
there's a bamboo speaker behind one of the trees, the most left tree, so it plays KK King
also just trust the process lol
it's coming along well!
@chrome prairie fyi the hearth is designed as an interior item thats why the pot is suspended from thin air
it is supposed to hang down, not that it really matters
oops
I mean, is it ok to just destroy everything ? Problem is i can't picture what the final product will be
v cool item so its kind of a shame:/
hopes it's not disgraceful doing that, if it's very sorry
my fences in that video are 7x7 @tribal jackal
@scenic blaze is it the fence or inside the fence are 7x7?
i destroyed everything and i don’t regret it at all
hopes it's not disgraceful doing that, if it's very sorry
@chrome prairie XD not at all, just wanted to let you know. it looks good 🙂
I’ve heard from a lot of people destroying your whole island is not the way to go. I personally work in sections and move things I have to. I’m working on the layout first and then decorating
and why do you have to pay to move buildings , it's so annoying
but I mean, it really depends on what works best for you
i need 3 young bamboo to craft the noodle slide oof
can someone please help with this? i’m feeling so uninspired
I destroyed everything as well. I need to have an empty canvas to build. I hate it when I got ideas and then there's something in the way. Right now I'm moving all buildings to the beach so I got more space to build.
Smart
@tribal jackal the fences themselves are 7x7 which leaves a 6x6 space for houses inside the fence
Yeah but that idea came way too late. I tried building section by section too but was never satisfied. I always discarded the ideas
@quaint linden if you're doing red rocks why not use terraforming for the seating?
I’m moving buildings and flowers to the beach and chopping down trees. I didn’t flatten my island though, I just worked with what I already had
That's when I figured I just need empty space to try out my ideas if they work together.
just seen this on facebook tempted to try it 🤡🤡🤡
I wish we could have caves
That would be so cool
@ember kestrel because it’s a pain in the ass for climbing and getting down, as well as building the terraformed space for the elevation differences
that's some crazy Photoshop lmao
@burnt pine is that a concept?
Can I visit someone with 5 stars please
im a 5 star (4 star atm because littering turnips lol)
and my island is a mess atm so i can't invite
not sure from the post they were making out like it was a screenshot but looking at it i think it’s fake
just finished my entryway 
can someone please help with this?
it was a post on reddit where the guy was like "i photoshopped what i wish they would add"
ohhhh
just seen this on facebook tempted to try it 🤡🤡🤡
@burnt pine definitely shopped. Unfortunately cliffs don't work like this in game
nah but caves would be so cool
I’ll pay 1mill bells for someone to make me a blueprint for a@good island
Can I visit a 5 star island please dm me
Did someone else misses some of the projects from new leaf? I want that zen clock on my island 😭
tbh it’s a really neat idea
I made a maze— Dodo Code 1B9R2 if you would like to try!
https://www.reddit.com/r/AnimalCrossing/comments/gbkcvs/i_made_a_maze_that_is_about_13rd_of_my_island/
We definitely need more outside furniture...
Here's where i'm at right now
yeah I figured that was why. I'm just not sure if it can be pulled off unless there was some kind of elevation, it can be an awesome non-red-rocks concert though? whatever you think is best. you do what you think works @quaint linden 🙂
You can see that i began digging on the west side of the island
it would be my house entrance with double waterfall on bopth sides
@hardy pivot are you wanting to have your island be symmetrical or more natural?
can anyone send me some orchid ideas, i have an idea to make the left of my island a huge orchid owned by Coco
I'd prefer symetrical but i think it'll be hard
need some entrance and resident services layout inspiration i’d appreciate it if anybody could post some pics 💕
My problem is that i playing care free from the beginning, now i have to move everything
symmetry is so boring tho
played*
I’m trying to make a cafe, got any ideas for me to use
I’ve honestly learned just to go with it and it will work out. Going into redoing my island I didn’t really have a plan except for what theme I wanted. I just let it flow. But that may not work for everyone, I just found it easier to do it that way
i wish i could move the towns hall
I want to do more with my entrance but I feel like there’s not enough room to make it better
Thank you so much
yw!
aww ty!
you guys are way too creative for me
lmaoo I thought it was funny
don’t know what to do wit my entrance 🥺
the purple roses aren’t actually very purple
I think im gonna get rid of that one from my entrance
@vast cradle i think you have a good start here! space is tough but don't be afraid to extend your cliffs farther on the sides to give you a little more wiggle room
does anyone have any simple/cute island layouts? my layout is one complete level and i’m looking for inspiration xx
oof i’m changing all my paths for the 3rd time
I relate
also - does anyone have any cute orchid layout ideas? xx
@woven drift and that’s on indecisiveness ✊🏼😔
@spark notch i’m struggling myself hahah
i went from arched stone to normal stone and now i’m going for the yellow stone (idk the exact name) and i’ll probably end up with bricks next week haha
@frosty spruce omg really? 🥺 there’s so much to do that i don’t even know where to start
Just finished my campsite area!
@long quest 😻😻😻😻
@spark notch would you like a tour of my island! i’d like some feedback
I need ideas for this large empty spot!
I need to use path overlays more
@woven drift ty!!! 💕💕
@frosty spruce add me on discord! x
Oh @woven drift this is my entrance
@sharp tangle whats the little chairs called?🥺 also is it a diy
I think I have those
@past jetty okayy i like the forest vibe 😻
they’re super cute
@dapper ginkgo its a floor seat!
It isn't a diy
not a diy :(
Yeah I have it if you want to catalogue
really
P sure
very nice terraforming and waterscaping! @long quest
Could anyone give me some tips on how to layout the space outside my museum? I hate what it looks like
Let me find it first I know I have it catalogued
tyty
@frosty spruce ty!! 💕 it’s definitely one of my favorite things to do
Yes!!!
I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but would anyone like to come to my island and give me some suggestions on things I could do with it? I have an idea of the kind of layout i want to go for, but it doesn't exactly have much going on.
I do have it ordered I'll tt to get it for you and then open my island
@past jetty alright, ready when u are
not finished yet but how can i improve
wth did i just do LOL hate how it’s staggered in he middle tho, any way i can fix?
or just have it be land in between and put even more flowers??
unfortunately not without making it bigger! @open arch
damn lol can’t do it tho
I'm blind what is the issue I can't see it
lower level is staggered
staggered ness
Ooohhhh that
instead of curved
You can't fix that? That's odd
So who I got to pay to build me a cute island 😂
no cause it’s like 2 squares wide
I have a similar thing somewhere on my island
anyone got asymetrical tiered waterfall inspo? Trying to build a waterfall near my concierge but it keeps looking ugly
@woven drift perhaps save a couple of the smaller fossils you’ve already donated and decorate with those?
I’m also going to be using these out front of mine 🙂
@hollow horizon thanks i’ll try that :))
looking for some orchard designs for inspo❤️
im gonna try to fix the staggered ness
I’ll pay u with game money if u want 😂
☔️☔️
@open arch i'm late but i think you can fix it if you remove the cliffs, chip off the edges, and build the cliffs back up. it'll be a lot of work though
just in the middle
Hey guys odd request, can someone help me decorate my island I’m willing to pay and provide any items you ask for
Nobody can place furniture on ur island
I know but like they can drop them where I should place them
Oh
I miss the cherry blossoms......
Looking to create an area for ahnka any inspiration? Trying to make each area around each villager house themed around the villager 🙂
Not like I use much hardwood trees anyway but oh well
Finally finishing up my restaurant area!
beautiful!
i've seen some people get gold roses for their islands... are they from leif?
Gold roses are bred through black roses being watered with a gold watering can. Gold can is from 5 star island!
WHAT woah
btw guys why don’t all my bushes grow? the azalea ones are the only ones growing.
I need help with my campsite now - can y’all share pictures of yours
Bushes are seasonal @open arch
oh for real??? then why sell me all of them... LOL
They only grow during their specific season. Azaleas are spring season if you’re in the norther hemisphere.
Yes. That is art.
i saw your post on reddit yesterday and i was like o i know them

Is there anyone who elevated like half of their map?
how long did it take u guys to terraform everything u wanted
whats everyones preferred method of covering up floors on not-meant-to-walk-on cliffs so that fossils dont get buried there... i'm finding paving stone on them to not look that nice, but flowers get way too cluttered
fencing
@cursive wren I made a transparent path and then used the custom pathing tool to place it. I put it around flowers so they don’t breed and get out of control
They can’t grow on the custom paths
Also, it doesn’t show up on the map!
@cursive wren you could also try transparent design tiles if you like the look of the gras
Can anyone please help a homie out I want a cute Japanese style island and I just suck at it Help
woahhh that’s so cool
Need some ideas for the service center guys 😁
Willing to pay someone to design my island. In either nmt or bells
person who has never tried terraforming: aNImaL CROSSING is ONLY mEANT TO BE PLAYED 30 MINUTES A DAY
upgraded the middle part of the heart haha
how long did the heart take you to make
a day or 2 lol
terraforming is SO time consuming why couldnt they just give u the option to build multiple cliffs or rivers in a row
Hi guys I ended up restarting my island after all haha.
ikr lol it’s painful. took me like a month to do all this tbh, i need a break from the game. @frosty spruce tysm!!! idk i feel like at times, it’s terrible and i want to start over
wow i love your island tho
i tried to keep my super natural and a mix of fairycore and cottagecore!
yeah that sounds amazing
@open arch Holy shoot your map is crazy good! Did you use the island planner first?
nice!! @kindred yarrow
My poor baby
here's my new map design haha, i think i got a decent starter map. im excited to see what i can do. rip to my 300 hours in my island haha
my starter cafe- i think its cute
nice!! @kindred yarrow i’m giving tours if you’d like some inspo !
Orchard is making progress! What else should I add?
of course babe x dm me the dodo
it shouldn't take u long to get to teraforming if you have someone who can give u all the material. got it in two IRL day
@median galleon thank you!! love your island too. i didn’t use anything honestly, i just wanted something big like the heart and then i decided what i wanted around it/little areas. it kinda just happened.
yeah it wont take long dw x
i want to restart but i bought 1000 nmts off ebay haha
My map atm , still not 100 % finished but I’m working on it
All of these look really good!!
does anyone have a map where they have their villagers grouped in neighborhoods that are almost like "step downs"? like two on one height, then steps down to a lower height with homes, then finally some more at your lowest level? im trying to work on it on my island but i would love to see it on a map/how you have been spacing it because i'm struggling with such a lofty idea for my first ever terraforming endeavor
@open arch Thank you! And ohh I see! It took natural talent and hard work for you!
@median galleon thank you :^) it’s actually a simple island, no real theme. hehe
soon i will host tours! possibly...
@pine pagoda im in the middle of doing it, but is this what you mean?
YES @dull cypress like this! i want the space to give them little lawns, but im planning on doing something like this! thank you very much for the inspo
does anyone here have double south rivers??? CAUSE THIS SUCKS
@brazen horizon Yes I do - what’s the matter?
Thank you @swift stag !
Can anyone show me your swimming pool areas?
@pine pagoda lawns are cute, im making a tiny place for some items, then right next to it im planning on having a massive playground area
I feel like,, it's not leaving enough space? I'm not sure how to build the river. @swift stag
@brazen horizon
o o h
I should probably just go with that lmao-
@swift stag too many trees gang rise up 🌲
@brazen horizon
thank you guyss
Hi i need code for this path!!
@steel junco 😭😭
90% of the terraforming is done and iam so happy
barely any trees gang
Fellow water gang rise up
I have like 6 trees
You guys have trees?
Can you send a picture of your swimming pool area?
I have like 6 trees also but because of the terraforming i removed everything every decoration and all the trees and flowers
Almost all of my trees are fruit trees
Jokes on u I'm still tryna make my island a 3 star
But usually i plan putting no more than 12 trees
Looking for some museum area ideas please. Could you please DM so it doesn't get lost in the chat. Thank you 😊
I have too many trees. Plus 6 to 9 of each fruit tree in my orchard
And the palm on the beach they are 8
Yeah I want to make my orchard a bit bigger with more trees
the rest are former money trees and like 1 cedar
Huh thats an interesting airport location, first time ive seen it so far off center
@woven drift My orchard is 1/8 of my island
I have basically as much bamboo as normal trees lol
I do have more bamboo actually too for aesthetic hahah
I keep one tree to shake for furniture every day
I will put bamboos too because i have like “japan area” or idk the name
But u get the idea
Alice’s garden shop 🍃
I want my island to be more nature/country themed. Kind of like a quiet neighborhood rather than a town.
@frozen axle u know u get 2 furniture trees per day right??
I will put bamboos too because i have like “japan area” or idk the name
@woven drift call it Weeb City
Can i see someone’s island map, looking for close-ish knit housing designs.
@frozen axle are you gaurunteed an item from just 1 tree?
Oh what. Time to pl ant a second tree
Call it china town
Any ideas for an area like this? (I have terraforming)
@exotic summit When in doubt plant flowers. Or you could make a little picnic area with a waterfall or something
U have a bad word town im reporting u
@frozen axle impressive


@woven drift @frozen axle I want to visit your islands ;-;
I wonder if its filtered, damnation
My friend is afk on my island so I cant terraform 
Kick them out
@heavy summit Dam-Nation, there is lots of water, it is possible the n does not belong with that same word as the m.
@vast cradle end the session
@woven drift its without any decoration and i tried some paths and now they are everywhere 😂
But holy hell that is a lot of water
@woven drift lol that’s me rn bc I moved houses around
Probably “Dam-Nation”. There’s a ton of water there
I just-
Bugs are pretty annoying too since they only spawn on the isles
Trash bags
Need more inclines but space
@pine pagoda I have all of my villagers in that little area and the top area is separate from the bottom area.
Maybe boxes
@woven drift I have the diy for trash bags you can put or yeah cardboard boxes
if you have a villager you dont like move their house there
Just got to 5 stars if anyone would like to visit
@woven drift I recognize that area from the youtube video
@pure nimbus my whole island is inspired by that video
You’re doing a great job it looks a lot like it
This is the most calm chat in this entire server
Anyone seen any Steven universe themed islands?
@sage hearth agreed I love it here
Also the nicest channel lol
The villager trading one is crazy
Fr and general
villager trading chats are viscious
i used general for like less than a day and haven’t gone there since
I found this big boy the other day
Does anyone have any creepy/dark islands. I’m trying to make a haunted island, but I don’t know what decorations or what to put. I’d love to tour
Sorry i was just flexing 
@sage hearth 
i caught 3 yesterday
bruh only 3? what are you some kind of casual?
