I had to fence off all of my villagers because they were constantly getting in the way
I might replace the free diy area at my entrance with the cycle hire.
@obsidian oar this is my most current map after about 6 weeks playing, it's way harder than most other maps I've seen but I wouldn't change it for anything! Hope it inspires you š
i customized my house for the first time and I'm in love! (this is not where my house is staying btw) š
Ugh it's not loading gimme a sec
tiara doesn't like it
love it! @grim cosmos
UmU tbh we need ppl whomst make beach houses
If the beaches were bigger maybe
There she is
i would gladly live on the beach if there was more natural sand
Mostly like the servers in your region are being poopy. Open them in browser and they should be fine
i wish i was half as creative as all of you guys
i probably will make a second account and put a house on my beach
@worldly notch thank you, i love it!! if youād be willing, iād love to visit sometime to see how you designed things!
@astral summit same
Anyone have advice for my island? Im struggling how to structure my entrance with Resident Services so close to the airport....š° currently struggling with Terraforming/designing my villager neighborhood pls dont judge my island š¬
Any ideas welcome!
i mean this is my layout it pales in comparison
this is my map atm x.x working on terraforming the left side, no inspiration
I havent started my entrance yet cause my villagers were in the way so i had to fence them off somewhere else
@obsidian oar of course! I'm in the middle of a huge terraforming project rn and I don't time travel to skip building times but I'll send you a friend req on discord
I have too many dupes now, itās getting out of hand
Ooo i need
Does anyone have good Garden Ideas>
@versed wadi you should see my house lol
WHAT'S IN THERE
Im tryna spice up my neighborhood
Brick flooring, brick walls next to a brick house. Too much right? Maybe wood floors instead?
its stupid u cant put them in storage
@lost vector For the residential area you could try pushing the top of the circular river back a bit, smooth it out and have houses around both the inside and outside of the river
Me toooo omg my whole basement is diys
Its stupid villagers still give me diys even if i know it already
Y'all I sold so many DIYs here the other day, it rejuvenated me lollll it's so nice not having them everywhere anymore
@rotund creek mine's spread to my bathroom š
Cyan park!
Like what even is a house in this game
A storage unit
i have some that are nice and i feel guilty tossing them if someone could use them
For real
but selling is so stressful
I prefer the term, alternative inventory
I have tooooo many dupes and they arenāt even good
Ohhh here's a real question, does anyone have a designated turnip area outside? Like making it an actual part of your island instead of filling your whole house with them lol
I want to
@dapper thicket what are the dupes of
i did til isabelle yelled at me
I wanna make a little farm with soil for them
Iām working on my island but my huge roadblock is that Iām not island leader.
So I cannot make overriding decisions and the approval of, of all people, my whiny little sister actually matters. .-.
i need an opinion on how i should place my neighborhood? do you guys like how they are laid out in this map i made?
i buy and sell my turnips in the same day
@woven drift like log benches and other junk
Iām going to move this cycle hire section to the entrance
I would do torps outside but then tours would be a pain
I had daisy mae today but she was selling for 110
People will literally steal anything that's not nailed down lmao
i only buy em when im close to broke lol
I don't tt but I wish I could get rid of them sooner lol
is it possible to place items on the 3rd level
i'm worried about opening for tours and people jacking my flowers š i guess i could just tt them back
the petals? why would they steal those lol
or do you mean trampling
you'd be surprised bubbles
oof
I fence EVERYTHING when i let strangers in
i need an opinion on how i should place my neighborhood? do you guys like how they are laid out in this map i made?
@versed wadi I like the idea of the bikes at the front. Itās like I can hop on and explore
If you close the game without saving, would they just revert to how they were before you opened the island?
i haven't fenced anything so far and i've picked more of my own flowers by accident than anyone has on purpose
Fk someone help. I am at such a loss
@scenic blaze I let someone in today and they did not stop until every one of those white hyacinth had been beheaded.
so maybe I'M the problem
let me visit @scenic blaze i promise not to jack ur flowers lol
I've had TWO randos ask to shake my bell trees which are clearly a part of my display lol
yeah but i wouldn't be following them everywhere during a tour so i wouldn't notice til after
But I mean at least they ask
white hyacinths????????? lmao what why
i need desperate help with my island. i have zero creativity and i would love it if someone helped me out lmao
people are so stupid
because he has that whole field
Omg the effort
React if you wouldnt trample mothras flowers š„ŗ
@fervent aspen lmao when i open for tours you're allowed in
HAHAHA
thank you tiara lmaoo that gave me a good laugh
Hey does anyone know, how wide does water have to be for it to spawn fish? And does it differ for ponds and rivers?
why is my house not centered ugh
Lmao npnp
When people are cataloging items from me i block off the exit until they drop the items
when ur terraforming and a baloon floats by
anyone want to help me design my island? or just a couple of tips?
I hate seeing a rare bug then missing the catch and then the net breaks
New gym floor
You should charge your switch
Lmao
Itās charging I swear
me atm @rotund creek
š«š«š«
Lolol
also i love star fragments and wanna decorate with them but ppl will steal cuz they suck
@scenic blaze im working on it, but i cant get it to look decent on the map or NOT super clunky...
Ive only wished on 2 stars
i have fragments scatter on my beach on soot sprites xD
WHAT
uh pls help me thanks :)
also i love star fragments and wanna decorate with them but ppl will steal cuz they suck
@grim cosmos why not craft them to star clocks? Theyāre small and they canāt be picked up
anyone have any ideas on how to make this festival more... bustling and stuff? It looks rly empty and sad :/
what're star clocks
only friends visit tho
@barren karma it looks good!! don't worry about map view really, it'll come together with pathing and stuff
@ripe sentinel clutter it more
are you sure? is the right really clunky?
star clocks are the poor man's nova light
What am i doing wrong?? i just want both sides to be equal?
idk what to clutter it with
xD stoppp
which i know because i have star clocks and no nova lights
Campsite
I want to decorate with large frags but that ish is expensive
which i know because i have star clocks and no nova lights
@scenic blaze Iām weakkkkk
Does someone want to design my island for me
It was a stellar effort. Thereās at least 200 of them in āStock photo for renewable energyā bay.
@faint path what the fuck that is cute.
wait wtf star clocks legit have hands though how would that work
@versed wadi they're worth so little money lollll
How many stars make a star clock? Nova lights are only 5 right
turn them around and they don't have hands
ahhh
It was a stellar effort. Thereās at least 200 of them in āStock photo for renewable energyā bay.
@versed wadi all I can think about is the HASSLE to dig all of this up when you wanna change your layout
i need
That's so creative wot
@timid stream tyy
mothra, is it too clunky on the right? im gonna cry idk ;+;
mcgibbon do you have the white lighthouse
ahh sorry to retype this but what do you guys think about a layout like this for my neighborhood?
in ur nook thing
Very tight
@versed wadi what made you choose white hyacinths
@scenic blaze but they look so pretty
Gives a lot of space for other things
how come my house is not centered? like i want three on each side?
Yeah get star clocks, turn them around! š theyāre like 3 star frags and 1 iron nugget to make
holy shit every time i see my house i'm like how.
@lethal thunder house is odd numberd
how come my house is not centered? like i want three on each side?
@lethal thunder add one more cliff with terra forming
Itās BC your incline isnāt
Hey I have a question for any good design people out there.
So Iām trying to make this incline, does anyone have any ideas, hereās what Iāve come up with so far
how come my house is not centered? like i want three on each side?
@lethal thunder a house is 5 spaces I think
Your house is. Incline isnāt.
it wouldn't let me center the incline???
Iām rotfl still at āstock photo for renewable energyā
@barren karma trust your gut and have confidence in yourself, if you're worried it's too clunky, chip away at it! i think it looks fine but it's YOUR island
@glass oriole the bottom is better imo
White lighthouse, white windmills, white flowers
House is odd spaces wide you can't directly center it
@glass oriole i like the first one
@glass oriole that looks nice! I think the second pic is better tho
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE
Correct a house takes up 5 blocks. So you have to either have two inclines or a three spaced path for centered house
any ideas what to do with the circle and squared areas?? itās empty atm, X is where the museum will move
ahh sorry to retype this but what do you guys think about a layout like this for my neighborhood? if anyone could give me feedback or advice it would be amazingg
@glass oriole second
guys i want the gray lighthouse who has it we can trade lighthouses
It is cramped
@rotund creek any ideas on how to space it out more?
@desert kite too tight, give minimun 3 spaces,
@zealous mortar Park, cafe, hiking trail, graveyard, occult summoning grounds, rest area, garden, amusement park, headquarters of the nook cartel, library, restaurant, altar to meme turtle
can someone please help me with my island???? iām already really unhappy with it and i just started rebuilding. can someone give me some tips/ideas or even come to my island and look around and tell me where to put things????
can i center the incline or no?
@patent sky that list is growing š
I just love taking pictures in this game ngl
yuck i have the red and white light house in my nook stop :(((
@patent sky my whole island is an alter to meme turtle
No one can tell you where exactly to put things but you because placement is dependent on everything else around it lol
I keep seeing the same 2 islands
@faint path me too, itās half the fun of designing
@scenic blaze I know and I love them all
Just finished my ārooftop gardenā area š
adorable
i just want to center my incline but idk if it will let me?
@zealous mortar Park, cafe, hiking trail, graveyard, occult summoning grounds, rest area, garden, amusement park, headquarters of the nook cartel, library, restaurant, altar to meme turtle
@patent sky wow!! thanks a lot for the idea bomb!! i'll definitely think about some of those C:
thats soo cute š„ŗ
Just finished my ārooftop gardenā area š
@long forum love the Rajah model
how do you guys make circle ponds ;v;
@bitter inlet @scenic blaze @pure nimbus @patent sky
Thanks for the input
i dont have even one plant
@versed mural itās so much fun š„ŗ
oh my god its 8 ball pool
I just love taking pictures in this game ngl
@faint path wtf can you like. Teach me how to properly do islands?
@versed wadi I try to switch it up š
time to go demolish this incline and try to center it
@timid stream trust me I donāt Know what im doing lol
Obviously you do bro
can i come to someoneās island, iām struggling a lot rn while renovating
Tfw you're outta custom design slots
Imma give up 0.0 I have 0 design skills
Messed up and didnāt realize you canāt move town hall, now I need to move my house and campsite. Any good campsite pictures for inspiring or general recommendations?
i hate how if you want to move a building just a couple units forward or back, you need to place it in a completely different spot THEN place it back
fr, we need more custom design slots
uhm. can someone please tell me how to make heart ponds or circle ponds
idk if im gonna be able to center this incline??? I couldn't center the museum on either.
Yes we NEED more custom design slots
i feel so out of place here š¦
is there any steampunk themed furniture??
@noble vigil thereās wall cogs
Yes @noble vigil gears. Copper and golden gears
yea thats bout the only thing i could find
Thatās the only thing Iāve seen
@strange edge š
why are we so blessed with ppl
@noble vigil not necessarily steampunk but maybe some items i use here can help inspire you? https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1259552726611922944
Type writers?
Someone earlier posted a sick photo of a train made out of a brick oven and customized stalls
@faint path very cute! š
Is there something horror themed I could put at the end of the bloody path
@scenic blaze thats already the theme im going for! i just wanted stuff that was actually steampunk, thanks anyways :D
is centering inclines a thing??
Forestpunk
Leave it as cliffs. Fear of the unknown is the most powerful.
ooo interesting okay
@lethal thunder inclines are two spaces wide so you can only center them on buildings that are also even spaces wide
Hey if you're doing a horror island I have some austrailopithicus skulls
theres no way to download designs when the able sisters' store is closed right?
Three finished areas for my villagers : goldies library, mollys and lollyās food and singing area and beaus beer garden
the Glowing Painting is from right before Victoria's reign
Perfect
Also I just love JWM Turner paintings and I'm glad this is in the game
@noble vigil u can probably use QR codeās but other then that no
i wish i had the level of talent yāall have for my island omg-
@noble vigil u can probably use QR codeās but other then that no
@woven drift i see, thanks
No true like my island is literal Crapp
everything is spaced out so badly on mine itās not even funny aCK,,
You could do cloud flooring for steam. And cover it up with rugs like I did with bamboo rugs. @noble vigil
@scenic blaze wise words
bruh i'll never get cloud flooring i had saharah here like 12 times
omgg cloud flooring is so cool i need to get it from saharah at some point
Ishtar and sydney I'm so sorry I gave away 3 spares
I need some inspiration for museum area's ! Please send some of yours ir ones you saved š
rip
Guys you guys are my favorite people
I like cloud flooring BUT I like my cherry blossom floor more
š
heyy
bc i wanna do an outdoor bath area sometime
ā¤ļø
all good!! ā¤ļø
me too but i get no good bath items
@woven drift they only bloom during certain seasons
hi!!!! i want yalls opinions!!!
Oh ok!
youve come to the right place
Tried to make it look like the clothesline is attached to the trees š
do you have your flowers organized any specific way around your islands? like by colors or types
@worn rock love that
thatās so cool!!
i only have white flowers
@brisk agate Yeah I colour coordinate my areas
@exotic barn i think iām leaning towards that too!!
my flowers are so random atm omg i donāt have all the types and i havenāt even thought ab breeding yet,,
@brisk agate i do it by type amd color sometimes so like sone areas ill have orange flowers and other ares i have all colors of hyacints
Yep I got good flower beds guys. If someone is tired of seeing them I wont psot
like white and only one other color
Please ping me if theres interest
@brisk agate i use different flower colors based on area
omg thatās gORGEOUS
does anyone have any cute pond shapes that is 4 wide, as high as you want?
OMG I LOVE THAT @scenic blaze
i need inspo rly bad
@worn rock I tried to do this with the hammock and failed š great job
My island entrance first project I finished š
wowowowow
I WANNA SHARE FLOWERS TOO BUT YOU GUYS HAVE SEEN THEM ;-;
500+ Hours in to the game and redoing my whole island, I've finally finished recreating my favorite locations in Japan. I hope you all take some inspirations from my island and also enjoy watching!
Sites:
Shinjuku
Shibuya Crossing
Tsukiji Market
Farm Tomita
Fushimi Inari Shri...
Woww so cool
oh my gOSH i need to start making my island look betterā
I need some museum ideas still tho š„ŗ
@brisk agate my flower beds are pretty but I still use them for breeding
My flowers are all over the place but somewhat color blocked lol
I AM STRESSED. I just want my inclines to be equal and I hate it...
can i see them also? @green zenith
Yeah when I get home :P
@woven drift share i havent seen !!
i seriously need pond inspo
i need redd to come back to my island bc itās been a really long time and i want to get 1-2 statues for my museum area omg i donāt even care if theyāre fake
@brisk agate
@versed mural Hammock plus trees would look amazing! š©
i just need help figuring out how to make my island inclines equal
oh my gOD i need to start breeding-
i'll pay anyone 1mil bells to design a map for me
Hammock plus trees would look amazing! š©
@worn rock
I may try it again now that Iām better with the camera
Almost finished this project today.
My favourite place on my island
wow.
the problem w my island is like, i want to have a cottagecore/really natural theme, but it feels so empty and spacey right now
i love all these pics
I only take payment in Raymond's fleas 
yāall are so creative and can so well execute ideas
@scenic blaze your island looks amazing!
Nobody should be making layouts for others
IF YOU COULD hang things on panels GAAAAME OVER BYE
You think Raymond fleas have two diff eye colors?
Lwt them discover the joys doing it
im good at designing. but the whole picture/map is making me rip my hair out.
@long forum thank you ā¤ļø
My island is empty but I want it natural
And like, tiny glasses?
;___;
@tall echo i had a fairy garden by my house (restarting now) and it was cottage core too but more full with custom designs
yeah!! iāve been trying to add more trees and bamboo, iām j failing bc iām bad at spacing things properly!!
deadass
i really need someone to post cute ponds or inspo
our islands all started out empty, just work a little area at a time and i'll come together
gorgeous omg
I'll pay 2mill to make me a really cool island will supply help and items
I didnt design mine ahead of time
@exotic barn work one section at a time
iāoh my thatās beautiful-
I am so jealous of how skilled everyone here is
me too
i wish it would be cloudy and foggy all the time in ac
Sometimes I feel like Iām not creative enough to play this game lol
Nobody is skilled we just spend a lot of time!
thanks for the tips!!
i just wanted to say everyones islands look so beautifulš hopefully I can get mine that good one day!
the only good thing on my island rn is my entrance and thatās SADā
I got 550 hours of real play I think 700 hours including afk times
looking for cute ideas for the outside of a museum 
So theres a lot of time
Has anyone done an atoll / sea themed island? I don't wanna do one I just want to know one exists
@unique marlin 8 could show
i've seen a pirate themed island going around on reddit
im gonna DiE
I just give everyone the advice to take your own time and be happy with what you have. Constant comparisons donāt matter your island is amazing 
@unique marlin an idea is use your duplicate or extra fossils to make a mini dinosaur outside the museum
istg ive cried over this island
yeah, i want to do a garden-y area in front of my museum w statues but redd literally disappeared and hasnāt come back in so long š¤”
Thatās so pretty
when school isnāt really giving me much work so animal crossing has become my education and life,,
My island seems to make a LOT of Juramaia so I decorate with them
Which?
i am going to tear my hair out if i dont think of a pond shape soon
The ones next to your zen bridge in the bottom pic
For a very few gold nuggets I'll provide my own stones and make stone lion statues or tall lanterns
Stone lions? I may do it for free if you cant give gold. I've made 20 watering cans for people so I ran out
Of gold ;-;
iām trying to do my island one section at a time, the only problem with that is that everything seems to be in its own like, area if you know what i mean? like it doesnāt flow, itās choppy and spacey
Currently in the process of redoing my island! I need some inspiration for my museum area. I want it to have a nice entrance to it
does anyone have any good ideas for a market or something? I have a few stalls but Idk how to make it look pretty
https://twitter.com/KiittenACNH/status/1259628248188588033?s=20 the only thing im proud of tbh
Whats ur take on using cedar trees vs regular
im trying to make the entryway into my house equal and i hat it it's stressing me out
i hate regular trees LOL
i definitely use cedar more but thatās j my preference
I hate that Isabelle says I have too many trees when I love using them
heck isabelle
I prefer money trees over regular trees
Isabelle tells me I need more flowers all the time when I currently have too many
the way i laid my island out might be the reason iām having issues w spacing and flow i j realized-
not going to lie iām pretty sure flattening this island has given me RSI
my wrists are on fire
This is my hogwarts island layout
I will be making this when I unlock the terraforming tool
Hope you all like it
i put all my houses in one corner
can someone help with this incline
SOMEONE SAID MUSEUM this is mine it's really boring as you can see
I just started putting my museum in a specific place
I just need a bunch of museum inspo
wait till i get a david butt it'll be much better
I just did a basic move with a bench some bushes and signs
@wanton sorrel I like to keep some regular trees for seasonal ambiance
Sometimes less is more for me
oh my god i WISH-
everyone's island's are so much more advance than mine
i have some organized like this so far
can someone please give me some pond ideas? please i am. so stressed
what tilts me the most is making cute islands
hold on i need to load up my game to taste the sweet taste of failure brb
i seriously want that orange tree to be replaced with a a david butt
This used to be my entrance but I can do better lmao
i tried and i immediately stopped loool
Heart pond or moon pond?
Ignore the fan lol
here is my museum!!
HEART POND
my entrance sucks
idk if i have enough room nicky ;v;
MICKEY MOUSE POND
and idk how to make one
does anyone have redd on their island with a gallant statue
double heart is the anseer
my layout so far 
i think my problem w my residential villager area is that i put the houses too close together
Iāve not seen redd for a week haha
ignore all the squares in the corner 
i never see him
bc now i canāt give them cool front yards
whos redd
Iāve had him twice thatās it
lol jk
the creepy fox dude

My little crafting garden š¼ šØ I plan on having candles pretty much everywhere. What to y'all think?
Looking for theme ideas for islands.

@exotic ferry
Would anyone be interested in visiting my island and giving some feedback ? :^) https://twitter.com/kitanoarrow/status/1257834818139643904?s=20
its not 4 wide tho
i have to have something 4 wide maximum at the bottom
i only really like my house area and entrance aCK,,
im re-doing my house entrance area, then the museum entrance, cause my island is poo poo
I am so super lost trying to come up with a good island layout. I've seen a couple Japan-inspired urban layouts, but looking for some more inspiration. Anyone able to help? š
I need to redo my entrance, the resident services is right behind it though ;-;
iām going to send a picture of my map so you guys can see what i mean ab how empty it is-
i need to redo my whole island lol
Iām redoing my entire island
I was going to buy thatās way too much effort now
I put two waterfalls in front of my entrance and planted all pink flowers
I had the same problem when I put all my houses in one area, but putting them across the island made it fill up more @tall echo
iām so broke atm itās gonna take me a while to be able to move them all again sadly lol
iāll be able to at some point tho!
My entrance is in such a bad spot so I wasnāt left with much to do
does this look ok?
looks gorgeous
awesome!
@woven drift i think a little pond on the highest level would help it look a little more natural but other than that it looks great
You can probably add some more flowers
@woven drift i think a little pond on the highest level would help it look a little more natural but other than that it looks great
@turbid bough on the bottom level as well imo
And I thought my rs was close
@woven drift ooh i made a similar thing
i shouldnāt have moved all my houses to where they are now, itās gonna take a lot of money and time to re-move all of them aCK,,
guuuys I'm tryna grow bushes but they wont grow the flowers 
im tryna make a natural area on my city island
@unique marlin they are seasonal
@unique marlin bush flowers are seasonal
@unique marlin has to be correct season
i hate my island sm
thought this was a pretty picture, its simple but ehh
honestly the smallest details can spark your creativity and allow you to start building your island up. start with a theme and a color scheme. start looking for custom paths and create a palette for your island! then use inspo from islands you like to start building off of
i love it
^^
And donāt compare to other people just do what you are happy with
Itās important to find the balance of what you like more than what others think
like literally just changing the colors of the flowers i used made me excited about my island. small details help
thanks for the hearts!!
even if i did want to move of all of these houses i think my top levels take up too much space so i have nowhere really to put them
@green zenith So there is hope for my town yet. Mine is SEVEN!!
All these people have all these fancy designs but on my island i have stuff like flamingos with lawnmowers and godzilla statues wattering a rose lmao
tried to cope with the fact that my airport is so close to residential services by putting a waterfall in the way- thoughts on the design so far? itās quite simple but i like the colours
hi! this is my flower garden !! do you prefer to see the marble or brick with border paths ? cant decide :((
i recently got the log stairs for my island and i am thinking making the area where i connects to an camp themed area and i have made slow progress
cool
@frigid stream these photos are messing me up, it looks like youre walking on a wall
@frigid stream brick with paths- ironically i actually use exactly that on my island!
the brick! it seems very flowery and garden like!
Captain, I think we have a problem...
Plus you may randomly get a diy recipe that blows your world wide open
@stoic bone maybe some bushes in front of the waterfall to add some dimension? but it looks good so far!
@stoic bone I love the seating area
ooo could be nice- thanks!
@woven drift sorryy :((
Iām just currently struggling with where to move things and such. I am gonna terraform and change things tho
my campsite .~.
can i see some peopleās resident services areas? rn mines surrounded by rivers and idk what to do!
@stoic bone thanks!
orange and purple i never knew would be my fav flower colors
does anyone else have lots of ideas for their island design but no clue how well everything will fit in and where?
i really need help trying to do that- at the moment i have a rough idea of what i want to go next to where but iām very conscious that areas can be larger or smaller than i expect...
@woven drift thanks!
Maybe put a bridge over to the rs? @dry eagle
i havenāt even started breeding flowers yet-
pink and white hyacinths are underrated
how do u breed flowers lol
donāt worry, i didnāt either until about a week ago xD
pink and white hyacinths are underrated
@stoic bone
I agree with this statement
i'm not breeding my flowers, i really thought i was gonna be that person but now i just buy flowers or trade stuff for them or have nice ppl bring me them
process, it aint good since i dont have rlly nice stuff :(
i asked earlier but i didnāt get a clear answer. what should i put in this area? should i add trees and make it in to a forest, or put on of my villagers houses here?
I breed flowers a lot cause I love the pink color especially pink lilies
yeah iāve thought about that @tame bloom since itās surrounded tho i wouldnāt want like 4 bridges so maybe just one āgrandā bridge?
@frigid stream huh? why did u tag me
@frigid stream huh? why did u tag me
@woven drift we are two of the same name
im in love with the pink flowers
pink hyacinths and lilies are my top fav
Ye, put it right in front if you have the space
@stoic bone https://eugeneration.github.io/HappyIslandDesigner/ you could try messing around with this to get a general idea of where to place things
imposter?
sorry wrong Jad
this is my entrance .~.
which flowers should I put with my pink hyacinths here?
white lillies
ty
@woven drift i am not an imposter! but we have beef now š¤
š
You're comparing yourself to me? Ha! You're not even good enough to be my fake!
iāve tried but i really want to make the best of my space and havenāt fully committed to the happy island designed website yet...
does anyone know if the trees/buildings on the website are to scale? if they are that would really help
or windflowers
(this is a quote just in case)

this is my entrance... not really grand but it works
jad omg! ILL MAKE YOU EAT THOSE WORDS
why would i need to compare myself when i am your superior
Anyone with a mountain type island design?
I keep erasing the custom designs trying to pick the weeds ;-;
those signs are so cute!
š¦
š„“š„“
i am very protective of my flowers and trees
Will new rocks spawn if u break some?
does anyone have any ideas for things to put in empty spaces besides a market or cafe?
@tame bloom mooddddd whenever i pick anything up i always accidentally remove the design
@fringe carbon white windflowers since they're like lavender purple
@woven drift yes
@woven drift yup, they do! one will spawn each day as far as i know
@tall echo stands for some of the items
and an outdoor tables and chairs
@tall echo I built a little gym in a small area near my jock's house
ooh good ideas!!
aaawww i got the cutest train set from a balloon š pink and purple tree things
i really like this channel
i got sidetracked. frickin Jad. what do i put here?
awwww!
that sketch is nice!
i wish i could move my houses again bc theyāre in tight little rows which sucks bc i canāt do front yards
oh there's a tiny lending library that you can use to make a reading nook
does anyone else always randomly buy something from nooks cranny just because you think it fits your islandās aesthetic and then never use it?
yes
all the TIME @stoic bone
@tall echo you can just drop 50k per house to rearrange them
i only have like 3 sections of my island: a downtown district, a campsite and a flower garden
I just buy everything even thought I know ill NEVER use it
I made my entire town a cliff town like in New leaf and now regret it because certain river fish don't spawn on higher ground/water
i know, iām probably going to run out of money though haha @green zenith
also iām so annoyed because on my island i accidentally placed maples house one block out of line from the rest and now i have to spend another 50k to move it back a tiny bit xd
bro i love my mainstreet USA vibe
spooky area! @dim copper
ooo niceeee!
I just buy everything even thought I know ill NEVER use it
@carmine walrus that's what i used to do til my 1600 house storage got full š
so iām going to have to wait a while
LOOK HOW CUTE
need a gofundme for sydney
@stoic bone actually youll have to pay 100k
iām going for an um- pink aesthetic town vibe?
another area of my island, im struggling with this but im turning nooks into a gas station
i will deadass give sydney 500k right now
woah- thatās so creative!
OH MY GOD NO
@carmine walrus nice
IāD FEEL SO BAD,,
i just dropped 1.2mil on a crown
ooo
i thought sydney was a villager or a hot sec
@scenic blaze I buy it and sell it back to them, im just trying to fill out my catalogue
the gas station look is awesome
i need to find sydney the villager for my island bc we can be name twins-
that looks so pretty!
me w/ Marina on my island
Anyone know who I should kick out ? Either Lyman, Tammy or Midge
thanks! it still looks a bit empty to me but hopefully I'll figure it out @turbid bough
@woven drift looks much nicer props
imagine how cute a villager named martha would be š
spooky area! @dim copper
@fringe carbon that sounds cute! maybe i could add an abandoned rail road? what other kind of spooky items should i put there?
give Midge to someone who appreciates her
i want her even though she doesn't exist
i need to start selling as much random stuff i have laying around as possible so i can afford to move my houses
gonna add some cedar trees
imagine a bear named misha
this is off topic but
i am slowly gathering my dreamies
marshal, marina, maple, and next molly
(yes 6 of them start with āmā)
@fading blade you have 2 uchi so maybe Tammie
i probs have a lot of random bugs in my storage i can sell to get bells LOL
Imagine a cat named Lulu 
mothra, do you have any cute pond inspo to go here? ;v;
LULUUUU š
tarot card set for sure!
Can somebody help me please? :(
@tired totem what with? ^^
oh speaking of tarot i'll show y'all that bit
u could also use those stone table/stools
my switch is hot and hurting my hands help
Why are my trees not growing?
oh and the purple floor lights
I wish we could halt the growth of weeds, they look so nice when they're not overgrown
too close maybe?
not sure- thatās strange, when did you plant them?
I thought it's spaced out enough :(
it is.... they need 3x3 each
@tired totem they are too close saplings need more Space than adults
Well before I sleep I wish you all luck in building and I know all your islands will look amazing ^^
this doesnāt really have to do w layouts but whatās a good way to earn bells fast sorry iām desperate-
i think i might add a summoning circle... something spooky
^^^
@barren karma all my ponds are just blobs, have you tried just hitting the water tool around and seeing where it takes you?
Just plant them somewhere else and move them back
Anyone want Tammy?
i have, sadly
i cant get a decent shape. sobs
u can do like the pentagon
Well the ones on the side were planted the same time as the middle :(
paper lanterns - with custom design
Same distance too
does anyone have any tips on how to make your island seem bigger? iāve seen islands which use space really well and manage to pack in lots of features without being crowded- how do people achieve this the best?
i feel like iām def gonna start to find ways to move all of my houses bc having them tightly together like this doesnāt make my island look v natural
anyone got some spooky/abandoned areas i can use for info?
goldieās house comes first bc i at least have enough to move her and sheās my queen-
hi there melody (:
im gonna make my orchard today so yay
@barren karma i only have two, one on the far left middle and one by campsite and they are legitimately blobs. if it's frustrating you and keeping you from moving forward, just make a blob, call it a day, move on to another area, and come back to it with fresh eyes tomorrow
ty, mothra <3
u have clay too im sorry
Lululake! š
back sorry i was selling a lot of bugs
did someone say summoning circle
I read a lot of drugs
omg nO-
That's how you know you're doing it right @rotund creek
@stoic bone you make a lot of zones. your mind will then just easily classify them into different places and it'll feel large
i feel like iām going to have to clear a lot of my island to make room for places for new houses to go, plus iām going to need to get a lot more money than i have, so are making front yards for your villagers worth it?
Hey everyone, I lurk in this channel a lot but I finally have my first version of terraforming "done" and would like feedback! I'm considering changing my entrance up some what, specifically the raised stone area. Not sure what to do. If anyone has suggestions that would be great! https://twitter.com/justin_acnh/status/1259635860451950592?s=20
I love the neighborhood! I get the point of the entrance but it feels a bit weird
maybe i could use stone tabs for tombstones?
yeah the beginning stone part needs some more decorating or something @quartz schooner
what are the mats for one?
@quartz schooner Maybe remove some of the stone fences and instead add a stall or something that will make it look like a customs office or an airport lounge
Or change it up and continue with the flower/trees like you did in the bottom
^^ or that
jesus christ i donāt have any stone
@green zenith yeah the entrance is bothering me. I can't say what for sure I want to change about it though.
Check out my new campsite, spend the last couple of evenings designing this! Would appreciate any suggestions / comments š„°
yeah the beginning stone part needs some more decorating or something
I second this @quartz schooner
tyty @tame bloom yeah i think the fencing is what makes it stick out too much
do you guys recommend making furnished front yards for your villager houses?
yes
bc iām considering it but iām torn bc itās gonna be expensive to move my houses
hell yeah its adorable
Ue
yes, but it's not required
it is required
@quartz schooner what about benches with potted plants on the stone part, since itās two wide?
All my villagers have unique and varied yards
that's a good idea @versed mural
mine have teeny yard because they all live in a walkable urban neighborhood
aCK i really want to now omg
Should I get rid of these green lights?
i need to start saving up 500K LOL
@tame bloom yes
@tame bloom yep
do any of you natural island ppl use music on your islands? if so what r ur fav kk slider songs to use
If you're going for natural yeah
Okay thanks
@tame bloom yes, replace them with garden lanterns
@tall echo why do you need so many bells
thanks for the advice guys
@tame bloom I would use those garden lanterns
ooh yes
bc i need to move all of their houses
Lol
Come to my island lol
theyāre too close together
Getting white streetlights from a friend, and trying to decide what else to add. Maybe potted plants? Hmm
wtf are those mum lanters?
@tame bloom if you want green lights, you can change the paper lanterns with a custom design tho š
I need some ideas for layouts, I have my water sources at the bottom of the island pretty uniformly spread out. Any have any dieas?
Mum Cushions
they look like cabbages and i need them for my farm
HOLY SHIT GUYSS
what do they take to craft?
I think the white ones would look good, since majority of the flowers on my island are white
Approximately 8 hours later, my island is flat
iām def gonna do front yards and relocation now, iām going to think of themes for their front yards
Does anybody have any ideas on how to fill in empty space? I have two huge plots near my entrance TwT
I love my tiny yards
How does my camp/nature area look? Anything I should?
@sharp arrow do you want some?
omg š„ŗ
@cedar canopy have fun š¬
lol iāll be having fun tomorrow, its nearly 0130 here
My campsite š
and my wrist hurts like a bitch now
Gorgeous!!
im in the same boat im about to have my island completely flat š
Especially Raymond's house making it look like he waded through the plants
What should I change ?
@woven drift do you have the code to the lantern stand? š®
Make it centered
I canāt ..
Move the right side in one?
can you not push the stuff on the left 1 more to the left?
i'm LITERALLY LISTENING TO KK SLIDER SONGS to decide what should be played where
@woven drift do you have the code to the lantern stand? š®
@obsidian tinsel no sorry !!
Why is there wind turbines and silos but no windmills? I'm so disappointed.
Ack I dunno what to dooo
Hmm, anyone have inspo or good tips for orchard layouts?
Does anybody have garden inspo?
@dawn cave hold up i have a perfect one
@dawn cave there is a brief orchard guide in #tour-guide
He broke my heart now Iām gonna break hjm š¤Ŗ
Btw ignore cookie sheās a dumbo
Me and cookie have beeef
Cookie is levitating
PERIOD
@sharp arrow I did see that one, but I was looking for something more aesthetics-based rather than efficiency haha (I don't actually do much fruit harvesting)
@dawn cave yeah i was gonna say it probably wont inspire you XD
XD ty tho
np np
@green zenith Oooh, I haven't seen one in a sort of cluster before. Thanks!
Where tf are you guys getting wedding stuff
yeah really bells
from hackers
I bought it from someone
@dawn cave you could search āorchard has: image ā in the server and have a look if thereās anything you like?
i canāt wait for the wedding items to be released properly because that floral arch- ITS SO PRETTY
@stoic bone oh duh, i totally forgot about searching images. Thanks!
@dawn cave The dark green spots are trees, the way I have it lain you can shake all of them then just walk down the lines and then weave around the trees to get the ones in the center
any good island designers out there?
People might legit get married in animal crossing these days
@languid bough look up happy island designer
Ikkkkk lolll
thereās also this 3d island designer if you want to spend a longer time trying to get your island right before you do it in AC, but itās still in beta
@agile mantle Iāve hosted one before I did nmt you can do recipes too!
@green zenith Oh niiiiice, thanks! I think I might put two up and try some options. Once there's vegetables I can do a personal farm (for money) and a community garden (for looks) š
People might legit get married in animal crossing these days
@patent sky imma do it
just me and agnes together forever
If you get married In animal crossing do you spilt the bells š¤ .... any bell rich players out there š

Me when I get the wedding set in June ššš
Wow
Wtf how do you come up with these
Rainy dm me!
@rotund creek next time you feel like redoing an entrance come to my island š
Animal crossing and sims are similar in that you are either a builder or a player..... I am not a builder
You guys have some cute islands
@rotund creek this is so extra i love it
Our entrances look similar great minds think alike š
@rotund creek the bushes are good idea though itās a pain when bugs spawn up top might have to consider trading some flowers out
@rotund creek did you see my new nerd zone yet https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1259552726611922944
Very Skyrim
Small portion of my entrance area!!
it took me like two days to do the pathing right lol
i need to suck it up and find some custom paths
this look decent as little as it is?
@humble kraken really cute!! love all the white
@scenic blaze omg I love the medieval idea

Hey guys does anyone have suggestions on what I could so with this space? I've got a WIP bakery next to it, I've got a nice campsite, yoga studio, workout beach, fun zone, and duck pond
someone should dm me so i can show a portion of my island that i need some assistance with!

Oooo nice. I think I might try the coffee shop.

I forgot to design a campsite so it just kinda got stuck there
xD

When I was laying out my initial island lol
@scenic blaze exactly what I'm doing now aha
Oh yeah did you guys see the aftermath of smashing panda picnic?
I donāt TT so I feel the ānever doneā sentiment š

āSmashing panda picnicā š

Letās all sweat
I made a cafe on my island

@rotund creek Iām about to turn my island into a big ass graveyard

@patent sky but what about the pandas
like it's been there for ages and i'm always like wtf is this cliff
Hey @zealous pendant i forgot to show you this idk if you remember me
i kinda like how the center has diff tunnels to go through though so idk
I like the tunnels
@dry hound i think you should try this channel #custom-design-helpšØ
Restarted my island and I just made my entrance what do you guys think
i'll keep it then for the lols
@rapid fog thx ill check
np
@hidden kindle they're providing fertilizer for the garden

That or I might make them be shopkeepers
That or I might make them be shopkeepers
@patent sky that would be so cute!
Oooo thatās a great path for a cemetery
i need to do something about that big empty cliff though
idk why that's there either
i kinda just went cliff crazy and put them everywhere
Put a pond up there
What do you guys think about my entrance Iām still working on it but I need some advice
good idea
A pond that spills over
@hidden kindle it's my flyover area so I have clay raccoons as the shopkeepers but considering switching pandas
Lol waterfalls ftw
Anyone have a pool area?
@plucky sapphire that looks soo good š„° itās the opposite of my island šš
i have like 50 waterfalls already
@grim cosmos not enough
xD
all waterfall all the time
when in doubt, waterfall
@agile mantle THIS
@hidden kindle it's my flyover area so I have clay raccoons as the shopkeepers but considering switching pandas
@patent sky theres only enough room for 3 raccoons on old eden, the pandas need to start muscling in on their business
i guess i can put a pond on that cliff idk
@zealous pendant thanks! You gave me the idea for the white music theme š
is there a way to go really far back in the discord chat? im kinda new
scroll up really far
but like faster
you could also search for posts from specific users if you remember who was saying what
@dry hound you can search via date
Not enough waterfalls
xD
@versed mural how do i do that
i need close RS entrance inspo
Old Eden be Old Falls š
With the brick borders (front 2) or without (back 2)?
Would it be easier to restart my game or break everything down š
My cafe
@tame pilot borders
i think imma thin out the cliff
Lulu your falls skills are just.. I...
i need close RS entrance inspo
wip
I.... like waterfalls
With the brick borders (front 2) or without (back 2)?
@tame pilot I like the brick border
I finally found the whole simple panel collection
IRL a whole lot and I also like geology so...
I need inspo for a little community garden if anyone has some~
Domo Arigato mr roboto
@dry hound still need help or you got it?
Finally got somewhat of an aerial view of my entrance! Unfortunately the airport is super close to the resident services š¦
@versed mural is there a way do search for a specific few words
bruh my neighbors in their backyard singing and im going insane i can't close my windows cuz it's so hot
@rich tree how close?
Yeah, after you hit āduringā and specific date, just type the word youāre searching
@rich tree i wish i have that much space š¦
I instinctively want to put my stargazing area to the left back area but I have more space on the right. Where do you all have yours?
The resident services are right across the bridge :āG
Everybody else's island is gonna feel bigger
Anyone have a pool area?
@versed mural wheres during?
Ima dm you
cries in eight incline limit
If anyone needs to catalogue to amp up their island, lmk! I've got full sets of a lot of things, like simple panel, floor lights and so on.
is anyone down for a game of hide and seek on someones island lol
I don't charge btw
from what I counted i only have 9 spaces to work with for an entrance. As well as it being completely off center
What do you guys think of a 3rd story like meteor shower lookout walkway right up the back (so itd be like a 2 way pathway sort of thing with chairs and stuff)
Just want opinions
Yes
OOO I wanna play hide and seek lol
@manic lantern I wish this server had a minigame channel
@soft sparrow make this pls
Tbh I want someoneās help, Iām trying to figure out how to set my island up so if anyone has any tips :ā )
@grand sparrow let me try to gather some people haha
hOW do you fill empty space..???
Work in pieces and just do a bit at a time
We have 4 so far @manic lantern including chilpil
Park, cafe, hiking trail, graveyard, occult summoning grounds, rest area, garden, amusement park, headquarters of the nook cartel, library, restaurant, altar to meme turtle
My entire back part of my island is cliffs and covers the secret beach too so I'm not sure those work for me -- but I think I'll try right side against my instinct lol
This is how close btw! Right across the bridge LOL
@bronze urchin i just randomly plant flowers and trees lmao
@slow dagger who's island are we going to we should TT to night time
Does anyone have any ideas what I can do for the second half of my porch haha
Yea - night time would be dope probably
@stoic orchid I have mine in the back right corner on the little outcropping of land, it's a small space but I don't mind
wait its nightime for me irl
@pure nimbus i trIED that and my island STILL looks like trash ahaha
we should play freeze tag with the nets LMAO
Mmmkay, terraforming the upper right areas now, but I think I like this plan for my house/farm/orchard area?
I will for sure, if only you could customise manhole covers cause I was hoping to make 12 of them across the thing with all the zodiac symbols on them (but I think Iāll just use heap of zodiac stars around there) itāll be right behind my second story shopping district so itāll hopefully be good @patent sky
Shen and I spoke about it and we said everyone donate 1 ticket each and the hide and seek winner wins all the tickets
What do people do with these weird stumpy bits
