Beach houses 
I see! I have problem getting started, because I'm afraid to commit to ideas and over plan lol
@woven drift i think a simple path with flowers on the side can be really nice. i have a similar problem, so i added a tiny pond near the entrance
Looks nice!
@tiny wing I'd do small areas at first. Like a block, or half a block at once. It's much easier to focus on one small space. Like the entrance, path to rs, etc
By block I mean like a1 or b3
can i get someone with a 5 star island to dm me and join my island im unsure what to do with this project im about to start a big terraforming project to add texture to the island and have some questions
if im in the wrong channel for that my bad
guys i need inspo for my neighborhood ๐ฆ can you guys send yours?
You think they will add the cop dogs in as dlc
preferrably 2 layered ones
@foggy haven Ah, that's a good idea~ If I start with the entrance that might just help inspire me ^^
My campsite ๐
Hi! I'd love to see some islander front lawns and how everyone has decorated them! I'm tryna make all my villagers plots cute but I cant think of any cute decor
McGibbon loves flexing on us
he really does
Those 2 are my favourite lawns because they match the villager most ๐
im 100% copying the way they did molly's yard thx so much king
i love that you snagged a pic of molly sniffing the flowers
I feel kinda weird about my layout. Because my neighborhood is right next to the plaza, which from a visitors perspective is a bit open
He is the King of #island-designs
You can customize ducks to get different breeds you know
hi! i was just wondering if you guys had any other ideas i could use for areas on my island?? or if there's anything abt the layout you think i should add or change? <33 i really want to do well and would appreciate any comments!
I love dobie
@swift stag will do <3
Sorry guys incoming barrage of pics!
people need to share their resident services more fr I rarely see inspo of those๐๐
You can customize ducks to get different breeds you know
@drowsy yarrow I didn't think to check!
Thanks
@swift stag here's my plaza so far

Can i get an oppinion on something?
people need to share their resident services more fr I rarely see inspo of those๐๐
@brittle crescent There's not much you can do with it. You can just surround it with stuff
woooah amazing plazaa
@leaden mason OMG the boba thing I NEED THAT I LOVE BOBA
Right
Wow! So much creativity in one area - Youโre killing it ๐ I love all the signs omg @leaden mason
the one on the left imo
Right most definitely!
i think the dark oneโs pretty nice
i like the dark one
Left becuase of the black arms
I think so too! But the left one's frame...
๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ i'll let you guys tour around when im done with the rest of the island
id love to tour anyones island for some inspo rn & ik im not in island visit chat lol
That would be grand! @leaden mason
The dark wood with the black frame would be perfect oml
@leaden mason i rly like the area with the box sofas, i didn't think about using them outside like that but it's really cozy!
Hey giys I'm a little stick with how to decorate around the able sisters shop, any ideas?
adding some flowers is always nice, and if you have a clothing rack i think itโd add to the theme
Little mannequins outside, or a stall with some hats on ๐
if u have a loom and sewing machine those are what i put out there!
I'm so sad thats the only one with dark wood for the bench there
i just got a loom from a balloon this morning and i'm pumped it uses sable patterns to customize
Sounds really nice
I keep forgetting to talk to Sable. I need to do that
How much do you need to talk to her, is it a streak thing?
i love customizing sm its so fun
Morning~
is there a service where i can hire ppl to come terraform and design my island lol, doing it alone is too tiring hahaha
Yes it's a streak thing I believe
@leaden mason your plaza OMGGG ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ amazing
@versed wadi u just have to talk to her everyday and soon she opens up
it took me a couple weeks to start getting patterns from her, and then it was random every day or two until she gave me all of them. there's like 8 pattern sets?
i remember bugging her in every szn of ac
Hi everyone! I want to redecorate my whole island (fairy themed, whereas there was absolutely no theme before) and I have a hard time figuring out how to start since my whole island is decorated. Does anyone have experience redoing a whole island and has any tips? Would be greatly appreciated!
@scenic blaze same here! Then i thought boba shops usually have cozy sofas... Soooo why not try it xD
Hi !! Would rly appreciate someone visiting my island to give critique.. v stuck i have redone my whole island layout but certain areas i feel are impossible to fill :-(
@versed wadi a throne fit for a king
honestly this is so lame to say bc ik its a video game but ive been playing animal crossing since i was in elementary school on my DS playing wild world and just how magical it was and getting so excited for every new drop of animal crossing from that day moving forward. just its so cool now to be alot older and have such a cool community to be apart of ๐
^
Thanks guys! Looks good :)
Anyone want it? It's not really my thing
I just started it all today, does it look ok?
Thanks guys! Looks good :)
@civic geyser I think you made the right choice!
Hey I am looking for ideas on how to make a garden to show off all my hybrids! Does anyone have a picture of something they have done like that? I dont know how to lay it out
I dont have a pic, but i did 5x5 gardens surrounded by fruit trees
Super proud of my triple goddess ๐ฅฐ
Goodmorning guys
hi! i was just wondering if you guys had any other ideas i could use for areas on my island?? or if there's anything abt the layout you think i should add or change? <33 i really want to do well and would appreciate any comments!
Ok took your suggestions and this is what I came up with
oooh does anyone have a cute boardwalk area?
@dry wigeon you might like mine but it's not the pastel version of fairytale style if that matters to you
edit: end of vid has res services https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1257069969797349377
quick walkthrough of my forest leading into the cranny's new landscaping #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch https://t.co/1QBhASpUSX
@candid plover it looks fine, but be sure to extend those areas to the full length of the town, not just in the center areas
Does anyone have tips for laying out villager homes and where cliffs and shops can be? I keep changing up my island but i really dont like how its designed
@candid plover it looks fine, but be sure to extend those areas to the full length of the town, not just in the center areas
@silver sorrel wdym ;o

@errant spindle just mess around honestly try and organize little area or jusr dump items u like together and slowly refine
Looks amazing!
@fringe coyote stunnin
@fringe coyote I like it alot its compact and very detailed. Great use of pathing too
Transformed my pier using Rovers suitcase!
One of the biggest problems i have though is space, i want to give each of my villagers big yards that dont all look the same
juno birch voice its stunning
that's actually a really good idea for the dock, hadn't thought about that before
Oh that's what his suit case looks like lol
hi! i was just wondering if you guys had any other ideas i could use for areas on my island?? or if there's anything abt the layout you think i should add or change? <33 i really want to do well and would appreciate any comments!
@candid plover
This looks so amazing
my villagers' yards are decently sized, they don't need to be anything too large, i was able to put in lots of furniture
M@silver sorrel I love how you did your villagers neighborhood
Is this pond big enough for fish to spawn?
yes becks
yeah the pond looks big enough
Fab ty. Was worried lol
now i just need to figure out how to decorate avery's yard
according to the wiki, he's a western themed, wannabe professor that looks like a totem pole
hahah yeah i have a clifftop river that size and fish spawn so i can catch golden trout lol
i may be a bit stumped
Would anyone like an island tour for inspo
mE pls ๐ฅบ
not sure if this is the place for this, but does anyone have any ideas for my plaza area, i'm not very creative, id like to keep the instruments at the very least
please dm me photos of the outsides of your houses, i need some inspiration as i'm designing my house! <3
benches around the fountain, stalls, ur fav items , flowers, or even something that makes u laugh @shrewd cosmos
Current layout, i want to have the villagers spread out across the whole island, but for now anything i should change?
hi!! does anyone have ideas for my island? ty in advance!
@random galleon inspo from honeycrossing on twitter
@shrewd cosmos i like to think of it as im creating little scenes for like photos and such and then it blends together
im just looking for the outside of homes because i have some fencing but i dont know how to use it outside of my house and the villagers homes
@woven drift hahahaha love the name
@frosty spruce the quality of that TV is amazing Haha. But your island looks amazing as always!
Total madlad
im now contemplating how im actually going to do it but i still want to try do something like this ( its unova from pokemon lol )
OH for the person who wanted the fairytale themed ideas: i have a romantic wishing well area in my island surrounded by flowers and fruit trees with the pearlescent shell fountain
im still in the flattening process
hahah thatโs like the third complement iโve gotten on my tv, the colors put my undocked switch to shame for my island haha @manic lantern
This is how I decorated some of my villagers homes if it helps
This is what my island currently looks like. How can I improve it?
@hybrid gyro oh can i see that!
Would anyone like to participate in a fishing tournament
@frosty spruce yeah gimme a sec to take a pic! also the trees and bushes arent fully grown in yet cause i just made it hehe
audie
Current layout, what can i do to improve it?
@pure nimbus omg can i have fuchsia when you get rid of her ๐ฅบ
bob > raymond
@woven drift facts
Uchis can go to hell
literally every other villager > fuKing r๐ ฐ๏ธymonD
i got phoebe for my uchi and she's sick!!
1 large 7 small!
I donโt like jock villagers that much they have a weird muscle FeTis h
jock used to be my favorite, now they kinda flanderized it
i'm obsessed with ribbot for a jock villager though. idk, mayb hes just grown on me lol
@silver sorrel ty for saying this.
๐ค ๐
tbf tho, i got tank for my jock, and he perfectly matches the jock personality so i guess for me it's fine lol
If I were to have every archetype then Iโd have to get rid of some of my other villagers
Honestly my favorite are the "normal" and "cranky" characters, the cranky get so nice and warm up to you and it's so adorable
I have 3 peppy and I need to get rid of one :/
@frosty spruce
i can't even imagine the pain of having 3 peppy lmao
@frosty spruce
i can barely handle 1
i have 1 peppy and im in pain are you kidding?
@frosty spruce
so pretty!
@silver sorrel they say the same thing as each other all the time ugh
@frosty spruce haha its not much but i like it and ty!!
its the same pain as having 4 normals-
I love Flora and Bianca though...I think Tammi needs to take a hike
just droppin a lil update on my bridge!
this is my island layout so far
funnily enough i have two normal and two lazy, and they say different stuff. Papi talks about bugs, beau talks about food lol
LAZY IS BEST ARCHETYPE DONT @ ME
@ivory seal that looks soooo good. Can I visit your island later!
goldie and annalisa too but they're not really quotable
My island layout! That top right corner looks a little too straight so im gonna curve the cliff a bit and my campsite is NOT done at all but im almost done
Does anyone know how to create those surprise bags haha
I think there are actually different sub-categories for villager personalities, cus some peppy villagers want to be pop stars and others dont
Nooks
like i said. 4 normals is a pain
Alright cool. Thanks love
@manic lantern Thanks so much! and sure DM me ๐
Thereโs so many good normals tho
I like the snooty type
I had 3 normals at one point, but June moved out yesterday
Lazy is the best
then Snooty
then Smug
THEN Normal
now i have 1 of each except for the extra lazy and normal
@swift stag did you get fauna and maple yet
June lily merengue fauna GAAH
I really love how you can get a view of the magical forest ๐
I have like 6 normals....
i have goldie and annalisa for my normals
normals are like, cute as heck
I have fauna and merengue
lmao i have 3 normals in my dreamy list i think
but dialogue man-
got goldie with rng btw
I want rabbit villagers
@frosty spruce who
I used to have 3 smugs and they would say the same exact things...
Can i pls get like 3 stacks of stone from someone I will give 100K bells or more upon request
Yo I need more lady ones ngl
fauna, chevre, and nan
Lazy
Im moving out Maple for Julian because, Unicorn....
1 more!
beau and erik are the best lazies
so i'll have 2 smugs, 3 normals, 2 lazies, a cranky a snooty and a peppy
and sherb ๐
Beau and Erik are my BOIS
I thought Erik is a normal ?
beau is a big dumb baby but i still love him
@frosty spruce I respect your deer and goat obsession
and they dont say the same things which is weird but i love it
My island is under some serious terraforming construction atm so donโt judge!!! ๐ but these are my villagers
lmaoo my wishlist is half goats and half deer
I legit saw him on the mystery island and went "aight let's see what the hype is about"
have y'all seen the dioluge where they sound self-aware?
PASHMINAAA @vapid rapids
Erik's definitely a lazy ๐
he just vibes and honestly i dig it
I could never get rid of my 3 lazy bois. Bob zucker and sherb
Um I Need him then
Zucker is just like Erik
@frosty spruce Iโm obsessed with her!!!! She was a random campsite visitor!
my wishlist is 3 lazies, 3 normal, 2 uchi and 1 smug
but beau and erik are nothing alike which makes NO SENSE
Like they both like bugs, and thats it
honestly compared to my new leaf town my villager lineup in this game is a lot better
I've got Sherb and Raymond and am DYING to get Kid Cat ๐ฆ
I have 2 smugs 3 lazies and 2 normals
I always thought heโs a normal and I have 6 NORMALS I canโt take the dialogues anymore
Nah normals are all females
omg!!! so lucky! i got erik as my first NMT tour and was so happy him and beau were my neighbors in new leaf haha
in nl i had Jambette, Elise, Stinky, Hazel and Ed in the same town LOL
Um I Need him then
@faint path If he ever decided to leave I'll send him your way
@faint path only girls are normals!
tbf I loved all of them
yall think i should keep this as a small park or make it a plaza?
i think lazy is the equivalent to a female normal right?
@floral topaz good looking out i like it better already
Erik and beau are so adorable
My island is Full of Girls , except for beau because heโs ja BABY
i gave beau a dress too
@versed wadi that would be so nice ty!
my NL town was... Kiki Coco Genji Kabuki Skye Fauna Beau Erik Julian and Lolly
@shrewd cosmos juno birch voice oh its stunning
can anyone give me ideas of an outdoor restraunt or diner area?
@frosty spruce Iโd say cranky is normal. Aside from their very recognizable voices
so... 4 normals, again ..>
Omg the Power of the villagers together @severe cosmos
I have a villager at my campsite letโs see who it is
i had maddie yesterday
I have Colton at mine rn
cranky went from the "get out of my way I hate you" personality
to the "are ya winnin' son?" personality
I have all girls except for marshal because hes the best ahaha
Whoever is interested I'll be opening my gates in 30 mins
much luck on the campsite visitor
Yes the power @faint path
don't take dom ITS A TRAP
<shivers> dom
Whoever is interested I'll be opening my gates in 30 mins
@manic lantern Wtf is this? ha ha. I love it
What's wrong with Dom?
i love dommmm nooo
Should I take him for the nmt value?
I had dom for a bit.
nothing is wrong with dom
I had all of the new ones at some point
Baby dom

@versed wadi Thank you ๐๐ญ
hahah ig i said a word i cant say here too lol @severe cosmos
it may seem weird to say this, but I actually like Zipper. he's not creepy to me.
i called maddie a h o e
I have a question! How do some of yall leave diys and stuff out in a large capacity, but not pull down you island rating.
My friend drew him as a very buff boi and now im scared
NOOO MADDIE IS THE BEST GORL HOW DARE YOU
@manic lantern can I go ?? :)
just cuz she wanted to kick nan
@dreamy pike i can change your mind
who is my GIRL
Even if i cant stand he-
@severe cosmos just say the word like t h I s or ThiS
Been working in a setup for a take an item leave and item for days and it's not panning out
WRONG CHANNEL ban
@viral cloak wrong chat
dudes, I deleted, relax
@dull palm you either trade them with friends or sell them, or else it's just balanced out by how good your island is
lol
@silver sorrel no you can't.
NOOO
Iโm leaving him lol
@lone plaza yeah absolutely. I'll be getting everything set and creating special surprise goodie bags for those that are visiting
I honestly liked the bunny day stuff but that's just me
like i didn't really need to fish too often so i enountered an appropriate amount of eggs
@night fjord surely there is some kind of placemat or platter you can drop them on or something. That keeps them on a placed item but doesnt impede traffic. I swear I've seen that.
Did yโall ever see the island of the dude who made the breath of the wild map
@silver sorrel says the guy with the insane zipper shrine haha
I bow every time i'm in that shrine lmao
Zipper is the leader of an egg cult
this was my tribute to the King
I think I might be DONE with the cliff builder tool. ugh that was dull.
lol

@scenic blaze wonderful outfit
I'd love some simple villager house layouts if anyone could recommend, trying to plan a better area is stressing me out
you haven't terraformed enough until the sound of cliffbreaking echoes in your ears while you sleep
@scenic blaze we stan someone who supports the King
Trying to find a pirate plank path is hard
Thanks for bringing my nightmares back haha @scenic blaze
He low key had the shittiest job ngl
@silver sorrel More like the sound of rounding off paths you didn't intend to round off.. ๐ฉ
๐ฆ
What is zipper
Heโs a crappy basement dweller in a bunny costume that tells you to โlook for his eggsโ
Is he a human
LOL i feel that
them squares thoooooooooooooooo!!!
what if zipper is TOM NOOK WE NEVER SEE THEM TOGETHER SO WE CANT SAY ITS NOT TRUE
Aight imma go John me up some fish
Bruh I got no water lol
i like it
Who should I replace fuschia with ?
i hate that damn bunny

@rich steeple same lol
So original villagers
guys is there anything that looks like a ferris wheel
@pure nimbus roald
Tryna boot ketchup for ankah so I can make a snootyville area for Diana judy and ankah lol
@dreamy pike I saw that it perfectly represents bunny day
@pure nimbus beau or erik
YES
this is the entrance to my museum currently(in progress) what should i add?
yall think the water pump looks good in an artificial town?
i love the path! @woven drift
thank youu
@agile mantle yeah, maybe experiment with customizing it, i'd put it in a yard or garden
Push up 3 months instead of 3 days whilst distracted eating pretzels and this happens lmao
ill try that ty
Any idea what I can even do with my villagers housing area? Every design I think of is just squashed super close
@swift stag still looks good though lmao
Redd is the best character in the animal crossing games
Over 400 hours and Iโm still not happy itโs my island ๐๐
Snow looks dope af in this game tho
@frosty spruce I have 3 lazies already
@finite stratus i think it looks good, what's wrong with it?
it looks really organized
Be honest what archetype would be bottom tier
Jock
I only like one jock in this game and itโs my son roald
Why all those trees are not growing?
@silver sorrel I just want to add more but canโt decide where to put stuff, I have a graveyard, a zen garden, an orchard, a little waterfall resting area just want to add more
Cranky is my least favorite
Too close
lazy/normal is top tier
You need 2 spaces between until theyโre fully grown you can move them back to the placement theyโre now after
Oh god
S Tier
Normal
Lazy
A Tier
Uchi
Snooty
Cranky
B Tier
Smug
C Tier
Peppy
Jock
@frosty spruce COULDNT agree more
Snooty and smug are my fave
Any rating? Ideas to make it feel more like a dojo?
@silver sorrel uchi should be down
@finite stratus maybe i could visit later and help you come up with some ideas
I like uchi honestly, phoebe is lit
LOL cranky villagers are the best
Is there a hash tag or database just of people's map layouts? I really wana see villager house placements
They bring so much shade
tell me this isn't accurate
Hey guys can I see how yโall have set your villages on the island?
All of my cranky villagers have been creeps and boomers so far LOL
@swift stag when they're fully grown, can I put them together without any space between each other?
@faint path snooty brings more shade
Apollo is a GOD
@raven kindle 1 space only
like i had gaston who was an anime obsessed loner in nl, grizzly was just the exact same (minus the anime)
S tier
Lazy
Normal
A tier
Uchi
Snooty
Smug
B tier
Peppy
C tier
Jock
Cranky
@silver sorrel Apollo is a god tho
The jocks are the worst
Apollo is p good, Avery looks cool too im hyped to have him in my town
@frosty spruce HOW DARE YOU PUT CRANKY SO LIW
Maple the best villager yes ? Or yes?
Cranky should just be renamed to "Boomer" cus that's literally what it's become
To you
@jolly wigeon maybe add some bamboo partitions
Another campsite villager
Same, I have Julia and Apollo. Like the pair of them
normal smug > lazy snooty > everything else > peppy last
But in the other ac games they were lowkey so shady
@swift stag look the picture I sent and look the apple's part...no trees growing and so many space there
so here's what I learned, some smug villagers are all obsessed with being movie stars etc, others aren't
Can anyone show me pictures of their Mable shop area for inspiration please?
finished Keaton's beachfront house, thought it looked super cute
@jolly wigeon maybe add shell stools
like mine is, but i've seen others that aren't like that
peppy is 10x better than jock and cranky, savannah is a sweet heart
@molten vessel that's such a relaxing design
I just hate peppy in general lol
peppy r too annoying 4 my island of normals n lazies
savannah is a normal tho
oh mb i swore she was a peppy
I like peppy villagers
Audie the only peppy I stan.
she acts peppy
@silver sorrel that would be awesome thank you
I say normal lazy are the best
Just finished the entrance to my town Moon River. Needed something that fit the name ๐
Iโve been trying to boot ketchup out forever and sheโs peppy
Poor Ketchup : (
Not growing this trees...some of them are more than 2 spaces between each other but not growing...anyone knows why?
@steady gale I LOVE THIS
๐Island Tour๐
To all who are looking to get a little inspired. I will be opening my gates in the next 20 mins.
I will be offering complimentary Goodie Bags which will include a hyacinth lamp. So if you're interested. Just DM me ๐
best smug is Kidd donโt @ me - marshal just ainโt it
I have cookie but she's super cute so she gets a pass
What u guys think about this corner for Robot Hero
S TIER
Lazy
Normal
A TIER
Snooty
Smug
B TIER
Uchi
Cranky
C TIER
Peppy
Jock
Not growing this trees...some of them are more than 2 spaces between each other but not growing...anyone knows why?
@raven kindle because they need 2 spaces on ALL sides
@frosty spruce i had Kidd in new leaf and i can vouch
I had Truffles before though
@pure nimbus I totally agree
Ok but Kidd gets like half naked
h
I've had Kidd, Ed and Jacques for my smug villagers so far, they're all really good tbh
@raven kindle They need 2 spaces between each one. Your best option is to grow them in another area with proper spacing between them then move them back after theyโre fully grown..... after theyโre grown you can have a one space gap between them
They canโt
Unless you move them there from a previous spot lol
No
Face palm
For that reason I don't understand
@raven kindle it's kinda complicated, trees can grow with 1 space in between, but not TOO many of them. Like if you have a chain of like 10 trees then some will fail
Ohh that makes sense
Just move them lol
I'd try to section your orchard by fruit type, so like have a two space gap between fruits
AAAAAAAAAAAA
also @manic lantern ill literally pay you to craft me some lamps lol
To those that DM me I appreciate you reaching out! And I will be getting everything set up. I will be inviting people 1 by 1 and we will wait by the entrance for everyone to arrive.
Thank you again for choosing Destiny Island โค๐
@manic lantern you are a paid actor from tom nook arenโt you ?
Or just plant them somewhere else and move them once they are grown
@silver sorrel you dont have to pay me bro just provide the mats ๐
@manic lantern shall I send you DM
that's the issue tho i don't have purple hyacinths lol
I'll provide the hyacinths just provide the clay
senpai u lowkey flexing on us just saying
oh okay that works thank you
How many people are you at?
i'll do it later though im in a zoom class rn LOL
Uh idk have to count ๐
this is a channel of flexing islands tbh
Your not wrong
so many good looking setups
It's THE best channel
true
Fr
i say one of the best just bc some people might have diff opinions
SAME omg
same
Does someone has ideas for a Star Themed Island? Wanted to do a Big moon Pond, Bur idk what Else to add
Everyone is so supportive and stuff
unless I'm panic selling turnips and none of my friends have great prices
So wholesome
You guys... Iโm so proud of myself for finishing this project. Take a look! https://www.reddit.com/r/AnimalCrossing/comments/ge08p1/my_esports_arena_almost_went_insane_ordering_all/
I use Reddit too tbh..
i posted my campsite on reddit and blew someones mind lmao
i need some help deciding what to add here. this is right next to my village (its like a little plaza for them where they can fish and sit down)
i feel like its too bland
did someone ping everyone
Like a little seating area , provide them some snacks & like fishing rods nh stuff
@egg If you're doing a fishing area I'd definitely place a fishing rod as a little decoration/indicator
oo good idea @faint path
@fresh chasm you can search mentions of your name in the search bar if you have a ping from this channel
should i add trees by the left for privacy?
Yes I would do that
ok thanks (:
@woven drift I've added a public chess board to a similar area on my island. You could also add small things like a football laying around or drinking fountains with some benches
that's actually a smart idea. I'd never thought of a big chessboard
don't suppose there are big chess pieces in the game to go with it?
Don't think so, but I did see someone on reddit make one
huh, cool
if im going for a white + purple color scheme with my island, yall think the grey drinking fountain would work?
Can I see some of the layouts you guys have come up with?
@night fjord https://www.reddit.com/r/AnimalCrossing/comments/gaazc8/surprised_my_husband_today_by_building_a_secret/ better example of one
So I built this at my entrance can anybody help me think of stuff that could put in the grass parts
fountains!
That could work
Rocks, statues, some of your favourite items or items that represent your island and it's themes
Any ideas to improve coco's Yard?
statues would be perf @frozen storm
Or the classic, flowers shrubs and trees
Thx for the suggestions Iโll try them out
Just finished my entrance, wanted something that goes with the name Moon River
@steady gale again , I love it!!
a moon
Itโs so well done
Im a sucker for this kind of aesthetic
i wish i could live here in real life
Thanks a lot, my island was a mess until I finally got the diys and flowers I wanted
Woow super cute
I ship these two
Can somebody give me some ideas on how to continue? Iยดm kinda empty right now ^^
@pale thicket order an incline but never build it so she has a fellow gyroid friend ๐ฅฐ
LF:people to help me design my island in a cottagecore/fairycore style :))
@pseudo knot Thats cute Af ๐
Due to the mass amount of people who would like to join in todays tour. I will be doing 2 separate sessions and will be touring for 2 different groups to prevent any lag or any inconvenience during your stay. Currently crafting everyones gift at the moment. The reason why im saying it here is to make it easier to share the message. Thank you again for your patience ๐
dm me pictures of outside your house, i need fencing ideas
@manic lantern if you have any extra room I'd love to come!
@lavish flume Yeah absolutely. Ill put you in group B ๐
I would be down aswell if you still have some room!
Theres plenty of room for everyone xD
@manic lantern i would like to come as well!
I'm going to be making a list for those who are coming and I will personally dm you and hold your spot in que ๐
โค๏ธ โค๏ธ <#
Looking forward to it^^
Yaaaaaaas!!!
@manic lantern just dmโd as well!! ๐ฅบ
to anyone who needs it this is a island planner to test terraforming https://bobacupcake.itch.io/island-planner
i think im finally content with this area
does anyone have cute ideas to fill up empty spaces in a forest?
use wooden stakes if you have them
@clever plank campfire, garden rocks, green mums
they can make small nice walls between the trees
yea i've been using them but it's like this square spot that's pretty empty and filling it with just trees looks wrong
can yall help me figure out what to do w this open space? i already have a zen, cafe, and park area
@scenic blaze i was thinking of a campfire and then i thought omg no it will burn it down LOL
lmao i feel the same way about people making outside libraries - what about the rain???
Becoming more and more content with my island development
ya i had to take out that perspective because it looks so good sometimes but a campfire in a forest is too much for my mind ๐ญ
those books and that pillow must have mold growing by now
oooh it's cute though
Ok help. Would this idea work? I want to round of the second layer to follow the third and line the houses around the cliffs
does anyone have ideas to add in the highlighted areas?
@grim cosmos im sure it would work
Does anybody want to give tips for my island.
the front of my island is like a plaza-theme but now i have a whole empty land in the back that i have no idea what to make of it, i want to terraform but not entirely sure what to do , any ideas ? :โ))
thats actually a really good idea
all i'm worried about are the houses being weird on a corner
@grim cosmos this is a really cute idea! i like it a lot! you MIGHT run out of space on level 3 - my best tip is to plot out where you want your houses to be using the path tool so it shows up on the map, and make sure you have enough room before you start moving
ohhh ok I can try making it bigger
Can someone help me redesign my island?? I'm totally willing to pay you in either nmt or actual money, im just so stuck on how I should teraform and I dont wanna reset my island because I love my villagers..
I suck at typing on my phone xD would i map it with dirt paths?
@vagrant haven maybe try some waterfalls or a pond? looks beautiful so far btw!
For this section should I put 2 bridges or terraform it connected
anyone did those forced perspective thing?
@grim cosmos when I map out houses I use any path that shows up on the map. I donโt think it matters which one
i want to do one but there's no space at abck of island
wonder if anyone did one in middle of island
@ivory seal i was trying a forest, but it just seems so empty, like i feel like my island looks so small compared to everyone else ๐ญ but tysm!! ๐ฅบโค๏ธ
ah okay, and so its like 4x4 squares of path? Is that how the measurements work?
yes, 4x4
@vagrant haven put a star gazing/bench/chill area on the back right or left ๐ its a good use of space. And cliffs are your friends, trust me!
Thank you
what kind of pathing should i use for a small zen garden?
Would you prefer an in game, or a custom?
yall do i put something here or just keep it as a wip flower garden?
in game if one looks good
Iโve yet to see any in game that are very zen unfortunately
Does anybody want to come give island tips?
oh then i could do custom
@agile mantle how about a picnic area?
i have that
@slim zealot
Anyone have a cool waterfall entrance. I need inspiration lol
Bushes in front or bushes in back ?
Should this be bridge connecting the names of a terraform path ?
Thank you again to everyone reaching out. Here is the list of people that will be participating in todays tour. I'm currently crafting the gifts so I apologize for the slow replies. But I will surely get back to you as soon as everything is set. ๐
@slow rose back
@slow rose I like behind
@willow walrus are you going for a more canal look? If so then bridge would work
Not mine but this one is so cool!
Does anyone have any natural themed island! I would really like to get some inspo from one:)
@woven drift this is my entrance
@agile mantle you can make a golden rose cross breed garden
Would it be possible to center the stone arch with the waterfall?
Oh really
@buoyant gate what part of your island are you currently working on?
yeah they're really ugly imo, so i dont use them
I'm making a golden anchor then I'm putting golden Rose's around it
I need to do a whole island revamp. Which means days if work since only 1 house moves per day
@versed wadi I don't really have a certain part I'm working on right now but I kinda need some shopping and neighborhood area inspo
Itโs just more aesthetically pleasing lol
working on my residential areas now uwu
Everyone in this channel tts so join the th gang@woven drift
i just unlocked terraforming (ik so slow) should i move my villagers' houses onto a second cliff or keep it on the first main floor?
Then yeah gonna take a while, sorry about it lol
@austere nimbus are you playing on scattering houses or keeping them in one area together?
@buoyant gate Mothra was a wicked Nooks with a breakout area for the two raccoon boys. Search for her in here ๐
@zinc hull im planning to keep it about five blocks apart each house
Would me tt to make changes then saving then traveling back work?
As in the changes being there
Yeah
Yeah
Oof then Iโm doing it lol
If you have turnips I'd advise against it
If you want to move all the houses in one go just go back 10 days. Move one, close, ahead one day, repeat
if you were scattering houses I would recommend different tiers. But since they are together, I think it depends on your layout and what works best.
oh okay thank you ๐
Really nothing happens if you tt forward and then back
Just the roaches if you go too far lol
I have a cliff area towards the back where Iโm sure i could fit 10 houses
Can someone please help me with planning out the teraforming for my island? i'd really appreciate it
i cant stop building little waterfalls
Should I change this to terracotta?
but make sure you are doing what you want to do!
the roaches are a bonus tbh
Any cafe area inspiration?
@blissful flax
Iโd say no because of the incline being brick
What yโall think of this
Terracotta fits with the brick though
Oh does it? I donโt use the game paths except dirt and sand
Ooh very nice
Question guys, for the shops would you guys rather it all together in like a courtyard/marketplace area or on like either side of the map or spread out sort of way?
Would just rather future visitors opnions โบ๏ธ
Yeah the incline structure is brick but the steps and path on top are terracotta
As a visitor Iโd prefer them at least semi close together
Which do yall think looks nicer? The iron bench, or wood bench?
I spread all mine out Troy but the other approach is just as valid and can look as good, it's just my preference
Iron
wood
Iron
Iron
haha
@soft sparrow i have my store at the right side of the RS building and the clothing store at the left of it
Maybe change the iron to brown or white?
Or the wood darker. The brick washes out that color wood
i love the cobblestone ans brick together
Back to phase one what kind of pathways does a pirate town have
should i put a flower breeding area in my island, iโm quite new so itโll take a bit of research
I was thinking like square gravel chunks
@craggy hull plenty of guides online and you'll more than likely want the flowers, so I'd say yes
@craggy hull Yeah you definitely should !!! if you have any questions or need any help for flower breeding let me know ๐
thanks:)
Might just stay with the courtyard area I think then. Thankyou though guys ๐
bruh i need to buy more purple flowers
There's some space on my island that I don't know what to do with. The bottom left corner, any ideas? Going for a tourist town kinda feel
Outdoor beachside cafe?
@agile mantle just do a duplication plot instead of buying ๐
Yes a beachside cafe!
A market place?
Because it's funny
im trying to do that but my luck isnt on my side today
Hi all, Iโm considering moving stuff on my island and such and reterraforming it. Any advice on how to start with that?
or maybe put some qr pathing and make it like an outdoor library
Like a walkway filled with stall of different Items?
Or have it like a trade and catalog section
Putting a library in my residential area, the market place could be cute
I could make it vertical like those cities people make
How would I make a pirates bar
@woven drift I personally moved most of my houses and shops to the beach. I only moved them when they got in the way though.
Exactly
yeah you got it
I'll be working on mine today as well so keep me updated would love to see how yours turn out ๐
What are some good ideas to use the moon for? I've got one crafted but their so big haha!
Cool, once I get home I'll work on the terraforming and see what space I have to work with
Place at the top of a waterfall on a third level for a very nice viewing item when you look up
Now that I have 5 stars I don't feel like I have to meet a quota, and I can just add what I want and improve on what I already have. This is really fun
@lavish flume you can put the moon in the middle and infront of a building acting as a fountain ๐ฎ
I LOVE that idea!
I also moved my flowers to the beach and ran out of room so I had to sell a good amount. Mainly pansies though
terraforming is stressing me out so much, my whole island is just one level and i want to create higher places but everytime i do i hate it
Good for entrances to even
OoOoOoOh yall are so clever haha
yuna send us some pics maybe we could help you out
I use to stress about terraforming too
yup. yup
I could make a kind of second plaza with little stores like an ice cream shop or like a vending machine drink place
yeah we can't help without you showing us the situation or describing it
Kinda like a central japanese area?
That could work โบ๏ธ
Yeah that would be fun
Also what type of path would you guys recommend for like a second level shops marketplace/courtyard?
How could I make a bar
Because a pirate themed island always needs a bar
@fathom gazelle That looks really good !!! Excellent use of pathing โค๏ธ
Thank you so much!! ๐ฅบโค๏ธโค๏ธ
this is the current layout of the front side of my island, itโs uneven by one spot which i want to fix but will require lots of patience but idk i am just not content with it at all :/ (donโt mind the grassy spot i was attempting a waterfall entrance lol)
and the way you placed your trees and subtle details of the stumps is very beautiful
@fathom gazelle looove this !! natural + whimsical at the same time
Do you guys have any brick paths that you could use for a plaza type place?
@vagrant haven when i first started terraforming i hated everything i did until i started decorating it, and then it was instantly MUCH better. try doing that before you give up!
Thank youuuu!! ๐ญ๐ญ๐๐
I wanna try moving someone out for sherb but idk who :(
@quiet peak tbh I donโt have any ideas. But you can try and image search in this channel? People are really creative
Who is that under marina? Because I think they should move, idk I just like all of the others better
@spare crater Marina is actually a dreamie of mine if you wanna part with her ๐
@scenic blaze the thing is i want to terraform because my island is only one level, but i have no creativity ๐ญ
Them or Kabuki
We will be opening the gates shortly guys!
terraform anyway! you only get better with practice
Ughhh are you giving visitors hyacinth lamps?
none of us were born terraformers lol
yeah exactly
See thatโs the problem I love all my villagers ;((( but I really wanna get sherb ;(
yeah im giving a lamp to the visitors today ๐
I spend a lot of time terraforming and learning what looks good
Would you like lamp too
Iโd love one, you have no idea!
should i just completely move every house to the corner and destroy the front side? i feel like itll be time consuming and iโll regret it :,)))
@manic lantern wouldnโt mind if I came over to? If thatโs okay? โบ๏ธ
okay DM me ๐
@spare crater maybe move out a personality that you have more than one of? either a peppy or normal..looks like you have 3 normals and 3 lazies
@fringe lark lazy villagers are my fav lmao but maybee zucker should go
Yeah ill put you guys in Group C haha
Cool as ๐
Definitely agree! I was scared to start and had no idea what to do. Then, it started going pretty well and Iโm actually happy with how itโs going. Just keep trying!
@manic lantern what time are the tours starting? I'm so excited!
Oooh I would like to be added to the tour
Is there any kind of old cups in this game like tankard's for example
@lavish flume Group A will be coming shortly. just need to finish harvesting these hyacinths first
I do have to go to work very soon so I guess Iโll do a different day ๐ญ
there's a clay pitcher Calamity
What I plan on doing with my plaza is to have my entrance and it splits in two, one path going left and another one going up. I will put shrubs and bushes againbst the cliffs, and the stalls will be on the same tiles as the shrubs. There will be an ice cream shop and a cake shop on the first level, and then a clothing shop on the second. Considering moving Able's to this area. You can kinda imagine what I'm going for.
Does anyone have any ideas for a porch outside Lollys house like what should I put there
@manic lantern could I be added to a group if there's still room? ๐
Just finished my Japanese restaurant. What do you guys think?
okay iโm spending the entire day terraforming and destroying my island i have made up my mind ๐ญ๐ญ
Does anybody want to give me tips? If u dm i will give dodo
Oh if group c is far away then I might have to miss out then since itโs currently 3:30am for me, thankyou though @manic lantern! โบ๏ธ
@light tulip nicely spaced and good choice of items
i need more double south inspo
Small bamboo garden i did this afternoon ๐
@queen nexus
@queen nexus one thing I did was make each river mouth into two separate rivers, I didnโt connect them.
i have destroyed my stupid river SEVERAL TIMES. i hate the wide open look
What kind of fences would an outdoor bar have
Also question guys? How do you guys get your photos from your switch to your phones?
Even though itโs not island related
I upload to Twitter and save from there
Can you change river exits?
@quiet peak probably brick
@quiet peak I'd go for latice since they're tall
No
@woven drift unfortunately no
i think i might try something like you have @past jetty
@quiet peak Bamboo Lattice or metal!
it's just. ugh. building and destroying rivers takes SO MUCH TIME
I tend to mix metal, brick, stone, and rope!
but it's worth
Putting time in to create something you love is totally worth it though!
yeah waterscaping is very tedious and can be really annoying
if anyone is proud if their garden can you please share a picture of it? i need help designing mine
Landscaping in general is annoying
Its almost time!
What would be a good tavern table to sit by the bar and get a drink
i really detest the wide connected river look so i wanna try something different but it takes soooooo long
Lmao the hype for your island tour now Senpai
It took me an hour just to complete this area WITHOUT THE TREES AND FURNITURE
my big waterscaping project took me four days
WOAH that looks amazing
do you guys know any websites that help you design?
Actually closer to two because it was one tile off and I had to redo the entire thing
a day to plan, a day to remove rivers, and a day each on the river mouths
Ideas for rivers/waterfalls are driving me crazy. Would it be a dumb idea to try and build my town with no rivers (and possibly no cliffs) and then squeeze in waterways wherever would look good after? Or is that a backwards way to do it? lol
Totes epic rn
@latent heart I think I did it like that
@hollow horizon so do you upload to Twitter from your switch then?
I always find myself coming back to fix something that I thought I finished the day before
Yes ๐
four..... days..... for these lakes
Okay cool, Thankyou then dude โบ๏ธ
mothras island is amazing
@rich steeple Did you already have a plan of what your town will look like though?
I never had a plan I just had an idea
@vagrant haven in the pins there's the happy island designer, a lot of people use that
@scenic blaze do you have an insta for your island?
Ya kinda @latent heart but Iโm still always adding and taking away I donโt think anyoneโs island will ever be complete
@buoyant gate i don't have an insta but i have an AC twitter, https://twitter.com/sedumisland
same, I didnโt plan to the extent of drawing something or using the island designer website. I just had an idea of what I wanted to do
@rich steeple That's the best part about this game. There really is no end
Went go follow you but turn out I already am haha
looool โค๏ธ
@rich steeple ok thanks! and yeah same I can't finish a project without wanting to completely change something. I don't even know what "theme" I want for my island lol
yeah once i "finish" my island the plan is to redo the areas i did when i first got terraforming
they're good enough to stay for now but i've learned sooo much and i want to do a revamp
Exactly dont get me wrong I love my island how it is but im barely getting started
This is only Phase 1
Bruh what??????
@night fjord ahh i was hoping for more of an like 3D view if that makes sense ~_~
Can I have honest feedback on my restaurant ?
hmmm I could imagine that. Not sure there any sites like that though
@latent heart I donโt even have a theme for my island I just throw mushroom lamps and shell fountains at any place that looks nice lol
@scenic blaze thatโs exactly what I want to do
Iโm kinda nervous to start my residential area because I have no idea what to do
@light tulip I love your restaurant and great use of mannequins as well ๐
@light tulip it could use some potted plants
@light tulip maybe brighten it up with some little clutter items and plants
I want to put them on the right side of my map but I donโt want them perfectly lined up
I mean terraforming is just so complex , and I learn new techniques everyday
@zinc hull when i started my residential area i wasn't TTing and it helped a LOT to have literally ten days to plan placement before it was done. i did a section at a time and got to have lots of time for tweaking
My residential area @callistol#0631
Bruh why didn't my ping work
Iโll check it out!
@past jetty looks really nice! I think Iโm going to split them up and put them on all 3 tiers.
"To all who come to this happy place. Welcome Destiny Land is your land." - Walt Disney
I don't have the inclines for that
you're such a dork lol โค๏ธ
who's a dork
u
((((-:
Just doing the best that I can for you guys xD
My favorite areas
i know bb i'm just poking fun
@scenic blaze now that Iโve started time traveling I canโt stop lol. I think Iโll just terraform and map out where I want the houses with paths. Iโve been putting it off since I started redoing my island
can someone visit my island and help me figure out where to move my museum rly quick...
My pizzeria
@zinc hull ikr it's a slippery slope
@past jetty That looks amazing! love the diagonal bridge
Thats dope af
for those with a cafe or diner on their island, can i see yours?
Thanks, I think the wooden bridge is one of the best looking bridges
Might do a winter night time tour later today
I love winter in ac
Fall is my favorite season I just really like warm colors
๐โญ
@crystal swift That looks absolutely amazing, I even love the Nova in the background for that subtle touch. and the way you used the qr pathing couldn't be anymore perfect 11/10
@molten sable
I also really like fall!
I know some people donโt like the trees and such but I personally love it
@zinc hull me too!! im actually playing in fall right now lol
I'm not really enjoying the color of my trees rn
Fall during golden hour is one of the most beautiful things in this game
is this still a good idea? XD iโm just unsure about the housesโ placement. Not that i want it to be symmetrical but i dont want it to be awkward
i just want the cherry blossom trees back ๐
Rate my new booth! Fortune telling
golden hour itself is one of the most beautiful things about this game
@neat gyro That looks really good bro!!
What do yall think of my market??
Is there anyone that has a moon lake on their island and willing to share some tips?๐ ๐
@manic lantern THANK U SO MUCH โค๏ธ
I also love the stormy weather and rain. Especially when the clouds are gray and about to rain
What tinme is golden hour
@grim cosmos i think you placed the plots well! if you like the amount of space they have then go for it
I think itโs because I just like rainy days irl
golden hour is usually 5:30 - 7:00 p.m.
Ty
Northern Hemi
What is golden hour
Didnโt know it had a name
Golden hour is during sunset
Ohhh
As a photographer it is the perfect time to take photos because the sun isnt harsh
Which means less harsh shadows for photographers
Oki. I think I might do 5 on the second level and four on third because I wanna make a small bamboo forest section and have genji live in it when i get him
Damn I let that dude go when I was campsite hopping
You let genji go?!
https://twitter.com/tianika6/status/1257731087012225025?s=21 iโm glad this works out better than i expected
@grim cosmos yes lol
๐ข
I made many sacrifices for that god damn cat
same here
I had to let Kyle go and I felt really bad. I actually really like him
Any tips on this?
can you use the same amiibo many times?
Ya same @zinc hull I let him go
@green canopy yes!
hooooo!!
Iโve gone thru like 50 villagers
@candid finch It looks great so far. I would suggest using a mannequin behind the DIY stalls and also maybe add a little bench along the fence of the right side
Too bad we couldnt adopt Rover as a villager ;-;
I almost have all the ones i want! Just need Genji, Zell, and Raymond
I wanted to so bad
iโm planning an acnh birthday for a friend,, if anyone had any inspo for decor or qr codes for a cake i would rly appreciate it ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ
Should I flatten my entire island? Kinda stuck at the moment
Do u have cupcakes @lost hollow
Do u have cupcakes @lost hollow
@rich steeple
nope, those are a thing in animal crossing ?? :0
oops got kinda off topic my bad
Yes they are indeed @lost hollow you get them when itโs your birthday lol
Can I get some campsite inspiration?
ahh iโd have to time travel then
@undone pasture
campsite on beach is my fav spot
maybe i will consider it
Well if itโs your friends bday today they would get the cupcakes
@undone pasture I placed my campsite on a mini island lol
U get to hit a piรฑata to get them
yis but itโs a surprise
I moved my campsite the other day and I feel like I didnโt give it enough room
@manic lantern what kind of mannequins? Do you have any designs?
Thanks guys!
am i the only one who likes having my house close to the airport and residents service for some reason? lol
@candid finch all my mannqueins are anime characters lol
Or you could google cake hat QR code and just... place it on table lol
I did that for pizza
I just use moms birthday cake tho if I need one and u can customize it to chocolate
oooooo definitely using those, thank u!
๐ฎ i just had a thought. you could make a deep dish pizza hat
yum
ppl on ac can be VERY creative im ๐ ๐๐ฝ
Anybody have some secret island design inspiration?
not mine. But imma do something like this. It's so darling
How does this paths looks in the layout?
anyone wanna plan my island
Should I destroy all of my cliffs and replace them with manmade cliffs? Or should I reshape them? I need suggestions lol ๐๐ณ๐
Anybody have some secret island design inspiration?
Hello! I've been working on my entrance today! And I love it!! I want my whole island like this, or do you think it will be a bit too much?
I made an entrance, but the area is blank
idk what ddo do with mu island
Itโs the perfect amount @distant pawn !
@distant pawn I think its the perfect amount
@distant pawn whats the path code? it looks sooo good
@distant pawn looks really cute, i love it
someone help me please
@unreal lake start with your entrance and go from there
i dont even know
@woven drift
try to find that out first so we have a foundation

Hello! I've been working on my entrance today! And I love it!! I want my whole island like this, or do you think it will be a bit too much?
@emily.janex#8561 this is super nice
Little farming area by my house
i want it to look like a little town with like areas for surten stuff i knida like that but idk hwo to do it
@manic lantern tell me where haha
show us some in game pictures of the area
I think I'd enjoy teraforming if houses didn't take days to moves 1 by 1. This kills it for me :(
i want it to look like a little town with like areas for surten stuff i knida like that but idk hwo to do it
@unreal lake max of 8 inclines only
Would it even let u put those 4 together like that
How's my entrance? Have any feedback?
i like that one idk how tf to do it but yea
I start from the back of my island to the front xD
This are the paths I show you before @manic lantern
Anyone has good ideas for a double south river ?
@unreal lake okay thats a great layout. like people here recommended. Start from the entrance then move forward
@unreal lake Don't worry so much about furniture just build the foundation first
The last thing you want it to feel overwhelmed and stress when making a project
omfgg the museum right in front of my forest is fitting but like...
ok
Captain what are the dirt pathing for
can i see someone's playground? :)
Can i see some layouts for the entrance to your home?
I made a shrine for my lucky cat, feedback?
i reset bc i got bored i am stlling working on getting tarofmorming but i want a plan still
@merry lintel
@neon oar
love
@manic lantern for flowers, to make hybrids
Nice @past jetty
Should I do what I have on the left or the right for each side?
