@paper coyote K, last question I promise. Are they customizable, or if I wanted all the colors would I need to buy all the colors? (because I don't know what color I would want yet)
U have to buy them all
@bitter helm not customizable unfortunately
Alright thanks. Off to furnature trade and cataloging!
@bitter helm there’s so many colors! Good luck!
could i see how some people decorated around the resident services area 🥺 im going for a more overgrown and natural theme for my island btw
I like how this is turning out 🥰
Only 8, but yeah, I am sure it is going to cost me -_-@paper coyote
@bitter helm I have a buuuunch if purple/pink ones I don’t use anymore if you’d like them!
goodness i still have a ton to do the only thing i’ve really done is my secret beach 🥺
some screenshots of tonight!
@flat pollen i completely covered my RS in cliffs 😂. I have a super close to rs entrance
Okay my plant observatory and my husband
Lazy afternoons 🌇
lovely job everyone!
im practially redoing my town
its gonna be a like, mushroom
hopefully like place,,, and its like half covered in cliff
and ive gone past the place of no retreats
and oh no i hope it doesnt look bad
My waterfall area. Thinking of adding mossy rocks and flowers and maybe trees on the cliffs?
i also removed lik ehalf the trees off my island
Does anyone know how to do this without grass on the sides?
Why are entrances so tough? My res services is literally 5 squares away from my airport bridge
@soft shore there shouldn't be grass on the side since it's not a transparent pattern
Would looooove to see some entrance ideas !! Just starting to set my island up and can’t think of what to do here !
@solar nacelle ^ :0
@flat pollen i completely covered my RS in cliffs 😂. I have a super close to rs entrance
@zealous pendant ah that’s so smart! it looks so cute!!
@ember kestrel this is what mine looks like but I don't know why there's grass
Any ideas that would look good next to nooks cranny? Preferably not a parking lot or a gas station
Need more inspo pics for entrances fairly close to RS
Need more inspo pics for entrances fairly close to RS
@north sun
@soft shore add some fence to cover it up
Just reached 5 starts today
I really need help decorating, when I started the game, I had a bunch of ideas and they didn’t work out well..
before and after😅
posted this before, and i’m pretty proud of it, but i haven’t gotten much feedback😌
@frail elm Congrats!!!! I could only imagine how youre feeling. Your map looks insane and it is well deserved ❤️
@woven drift I think that looks absolutely amazing. 10x better than ebfore
Someone help me out
@oblique summit how can we help you?
I don’t know what to do anymore
hmm okay
@soft shore do those patterns on the side have a bit that is transparent where the grass can show?
I’m freaking out
I hate that my residents services is so close to the beach 😔
well what exactly do you mean?
It seems like there’s so many stuff missing in my island
I’m out of ideas, I feel lost
Honestly same
thats okay thats normal
@ember kestrel they shouldn't because I got them from the creator code
no need to get overwhelmed
I thought if I got rid of all the cliffs and have a flat island it would make decorating is but it seems like I’m stuck in a never ending flat surface
I hate it...
@oblique summit oh gosh that's such a struggle! I was super proud of my first ideas but as we continue playing we can completely change our minds lol!! I recommend maybe twitter or pinterest for inspo?
Yeah flattening your island is not the way to go BUT its okay
The only thing i have to say is dont reset
@oblique summit Have you finished your entrance yet?
It’s 50% done
And eventually i broke out of my funk
I’ll show you
@manic lantern thanks its been alot of hours but goad we mafe it😝
You can start working on small sections of your island and slowly it would come together
@frail elm but dont get too comfortable it's only the beginning 🙂
Something is missing😓😓
Okay guys, what do we think of my entrance? This was today's project 😊
😫 The entrance is the hardest part for me; I have tiny sections I like but the entrance is killing me
same
My island is so bad I’m not even going to share it
@oblique summit well what do you enjoy doing the most
:(((
@forest creek amazinggggg!!
I used to feel this frustrated guys :((((((
@soft shore I'm not sure since I don't know what that pattern that's on the side looks like but I'm guessing there's a bit of transparency on the edge and that's why the grass is showing? sorry if I'm not being helpful 😕
@manic lantern what did you mean?
I don't mean to be bothersome but I think the wood looks better I want a bit of an Inn like feeling or hell maybe I could make a full on inn
I need some neighborhood inspirations. Can anyone help? Maybe an island visit.
@forest creek such a gorgeous vibe!
Why can’t me island be like that
Still need the white iron garden benches and hedges, but we're getting there
@oblique summit like you as a person do you enjoy parks? playing basketball? working out? use these an inspos and create it
Not the best that I’ve seen, but I hope that this will give some inspiration to some of you guys 
@north sun @woven drift want me to show you my entrance if ur stuck
I’ll go on someone’s island and get ideas
Everyone has amazing islands and I get shit
And btw has anyone created a beach side bar
Parks
Man my island is shit @prime dew
@woven drift don't worry about it being the best. that spot is still a solid 11/10 ❤️
I need inspo for yards for Apollo zucker bob sherb and fauna
Man my island is shit @prime dew
@sudden spear
@sudden spear yeah I think the wood is better!
Sure send pics apple
Does this look okay guys? Is it too messy ?
@ember kestrel thx
I wish the lighting mechanics were stronger in game at night
np!
You know what, I’m gonna stop it, I’ll work harder, I’ll start with an enterance because this isn’t Minecraft I can’t layout then fix
Any neighborhood ideas?
@sinful drift it's not too messy! it looks great 😃 and I completely agree about the lighting, it's a letdown for me
@rugged egret make it like a suburban area maybe
Well your islands are certainly more impressive then mine 😒
any infrastructure ideas??
Thank you all, and @manic lantern for the idea
Also the person that recommended Pinterest
@prime dew your islands prolly better great!
@oblique summit yeah you dont want to end up not enjoying the game because youre so tunneled in on building the perfect island
My marketplace and house area and entrance to redds boat so far!
@rugged egret this is mine but it takes up a lot of space https://twitter.com/TrinityAcnh/status/1261482910051262465?s=19
What the fuck that's incredible @snow seal
Thank you! And yes, i wish street lamps actually gave off some light, its incredibly dark at night
@snow seal That's beyond amazing
@oak mason
I’ll come back after I’m completely done with my enterance ☺️
Old pic but I hope it helps!
thx @ember kestrel
Just finished my bee garden!
@snow seal honestly 1 to 1 to the actual movie. it brings me back to the scene when chihiro's parents became pigs
Yes! That’s what I tried to recreate! 🥺
I heard negativity
Bruh I'm mad doe cus it had to go and ruin my vibing paths
Thank you guys! Ily
@snow seal That is so amazing and makes my island seem 1 stars!
@slow dagger gooooddaaang that is inspirational
Ik i post this often but i love my musuem
i need inspiration for how to do my yard for my house
I have lucky in my campsite, Is it worth getting him?
Yessss
Goldie*
Hey, I'm asking this here too but can anyone send their entrance for inspiration?
I really don't like the one I made + my airport is super close to the RS
I have goldie , I mean
@ember kestrel I figured it out it needs to be on a cliff
Goldie and lucky are both precious
i need inspiration for where to put my house at and what my yard can look like
Ok ill snatch her then.
This is what I have for my enterance
Hey, I'm asking this here too but can anyone send their entrance for inspiration?

for my girl whitney
I was wondering if anyone has an idea on what I should add to this section it kinda feels a bit empty
@clever nighttry condensing it, it seems way to big for what space your using imo
thinking of changing these white windflowers, any suggestions?
do yall think they'll ever update custom paths to have proper footstep sounds T_T
do yall think they'll ever update custom paths to have proper footstep sounds T_T
@stuck crescent this bothers me so much too
Any outdoor cafe ideas??
ty!
@obsidian tinsel right? honestly avoiding custom paths mostly bc of it but theyre so good looking....
Has anyone made a beach side bar/surfboard rental place
@red canopy
Has anyone made a beach side bar/surfboard rental place
@sudden spear @versed wadi has a bike rental
Can someone pick a theme for my island Cuzz I just unlocked terraforming and idk wht to do 😔
How can I centralize this and make it look good?
yall audie just moved in and i need some beach house inspo
Pick your own theme! Do what you think expresses you the best @halcyon mural
make it a single path, then move it to the left so it's centered over the single path
Has anyone made a beach side bar/surfboard rental place
@sudden spear and this is @ivory salmon 's Cranny. Honestly my favorite use of bikes and surfboards!
yall audie just moved in and i need some beach house inspo
@floral topaz someone definitely had beach house inspo with Marina I think. you could try searching
Kinda random but I took a photo with my islanders and I think it’s pretty cute
how in heck do you all get them together? i've been spending too much time designing obvs that i haven't tried that yet
Guys, I got the flowers thing out of the way, But bow she is saying that Things arent in the right ppace
@obsidian tinsel harvs island
@obsidian tinsel harvs island
@pure nimbus ahh thank you!
Np! I suggest trying it out for yourself! It’s really fun
be honest. how many bells has everyone wasted re-customizing things? me, probably half a million 
Oh, gosh. I don't even know. Too much.
@obsidian tinsel ive moved all 10 houses + my own + museum and all the shops + moved another house 2 more times
should I add I dont time travel
Does anyone wanna come to my island it’s natural themed I need some critiques on what to do with some of the open space
@obsidian tinsel ive moved all 10 houses + my own + museum and all the shops + moved another house 2 more times
@somber swallow ugh, i hate moving houses and buildings! so nerve wracking. i haven't moved houses as much as that, but i have customized the same stall probably 10 times now
and i know i can overwrite the design but i'm scared i'll forget where to re-download them
@woven drift that's great 😀 pretty sure this is the wrong channel though #happy-home-designs
it's ok!!
I need help!! I can't align the entrance of the museum to the stairs 😭
What would be a good item to even this out?
I sorta wanna build a surfboard rental area combined with a beach side bar
maybe a T-Rex on the side? lmao
Like a made one with like bamboo lattice fences and stalls and stuff
i feel it looks so boring, any tips?
weeds, basic flowers, custom patterns, dirt, camping tools, sleeping bags, you name it
the skies the limit
more flowers too?
so should i extend the trees space? to have more space
@royal ridge look in the wood crafting section. Tons of things there to help liven it up, and don’t forget to customize
@royal ridge I can make you a bonfire or log tables and log benches if you need
looks like plenty of space as is imo @royal ridge
@crude berry T. rex is 6x2
this area of my island gets laggy whenever i run through it lol
I think i have a mum breeding problem
@viscid dagger rip frame rate lmao
@crude berry I haven't placed those down before so I can't say 😓
plus i need to even this now lol
@viscid dagger love the colours 
things aren't usually even in nature 🙂
I wish we could do curved paths in different ways
woulf it be like cute if i put audie house on the edge pf the beach so he yard is like the beach
I went for a dual staircase layout for my museum since you can't center them with the door
@gaunt fog love the flower choice and white items!
finished pottery area and washing area!
@humble echo nice
Does anyone have any natural cafe designs
Does anyone have any neighborhood ideas? I’m seriously struggling
Tyy
@humble echo very nicely done!! such a very creative and unique idea in such a gorgeous area
I'm imagining like a more wooden tropical beach rental inside a bar maybe I'm dumb
Im scared it won't look good
been working on my entrance!! i just emptied out my entire map
talent
Periodt
Wish i was creative lol😔
i’m stealing that waterfall thing for the left half of my entrance, no cap
I need cafe designs omg
not sure what I can do here
Yall my entrance be awesome but it's in the way of my path and idk what to do lmao
island plans : )
@gaunt fog what’s that path around her house?
@gaunt fog what a cute picture!
thoughts on ember island theatre?
@sly cape maybe you could make some shops or a trading center left and right or a natural cliff and waterfall entrance
I was going to post but woah urs are so cool
i want to redo everything suddenly
made a Cemetery for Lucky’s House
If you don’t like your island change it
@reef jetty I have shops to the left, I’ll try the waterfall idea
That’s what I did
i like my island just fine lol
Ok awesome
especially compared to what it was before
since we’re sharing entrances lol
made this area during the day and didn't know what it would look like at night and god do I love it !
entrance checkkkk
xeinno i love itt
xeinmo
SORRY I WAS LITERALLY EDITING IT HAHA
Periodt
😂
I don't have a set entrance yet. It still needs put together.
beside that, on the left to that area I have a river and i really don't know what to do with it, any ideas ?
This is my fave part
i forgot it was bunny day
Lmaoo
pls map inspo I feel so unsure where to start with thissss, resident services is lower middle, lower left is airport !!
Entrance ideas for a island that has there residents service close but not extremely close??
I really want water falls but how?
can we drop messy map pics instead of nice ones
@humble echo lovethat so much
I’ll drop mine !! :3

Suree

Not messy just boring
@coarse jewel I gotchu.
Not messy just boring
@candid oriole mine btw
@dark echo i love your island name
@hybrid sable here is mine it has some waterfall s
I over terraformed now I’m stuck ):
@zealous pendant sheeeshh😍 that map
lmao animal crossing used to be relaxing, now, it just gives everyone anxiety
can anyone send me pictures of their entrance areas or disco/club areas for inspiration? please and thank you!!
anyone willing to @ me some nice tropical flower pallets? I've got palm trees everywhere just having a hard time figuring out what flowers go nicely together!
orange roses are also a great pick imo
I rather have a complete flat island but this chat is not letting me
the fact i can't think of a design is starting to ignore me
(:
oo im waiting for ankhas amiibo to come in the mail
completely redid my island theme, i'm still crying
But u need lord stringfish
Current map
@gaunt fog hehehe ty! I love hunter x hunter so much
completely redid my island theme, i'm still crying
@oblique raptor aww dont worry just go with the flow
My island theme is "lulu" don't get caught up on theme
waiting for maple, ankha, and cocos amiibos to come in 🥺
@candid oriole hahah you're right~!~ I was doing a vaporwave theme but then I was like..... I just want things that make me happy? so now it's like a confused Japanese town that has witchy elements and lots of plants LMAO. but hey, at least I won't want to just impulsively change it
Y’all should know what my them is already cause you know I’ve spammed it numerous of times 😂
I am modeling my island after the Kanto region from Gen 1 Pokémon. Here is my take on Pewter City:
https://twitter.com/mfgloom3/status/1261506871195648001?s=21
JESUS TAKES THE WHEEL
@gaunt fog omg no way!! Mine is eden from neon genesis evangelion
Ever just have a plan for your island then come here and change ALL of it
yes same @merry inlet
Like I had a whole layout then I was like nah nah nah
@candid oriole hahah you're right~!~ I was doing a vaporwave theme but then I was like..... I just want things that make me happy? so now it's like a confused Japanese town that has witchy elements and lots of plants LMAO. but hey, at least I won't want to just impulsively change it
@oblique raptor ahh same now mine is like a rural japan just make it unique thats how youll be able to have a clear direction since its whatever you like
i will die for sherb
I need close and off center RS entrance inspo
I got marcie since thats my cats name
oh, I learned the really cool thing today that if you have a bridge in place, there's one tile of path (if you use customs), that you won't be able to get to. So, you have to demolish it
so just a heads up!!
the anteaters should be illegal 😳
Somebody visited and said they loved my villagers except ketchup and vesta... excuse me!? Man had no taste
moon shaped pond? more like moon shaped cliff
Somebody visited and said they loved my villagers except ketchup and vesta... excuse me!? Man had no taste
@patent sky hater that’s what
Thanks for letting us know maxx
Ketchup is a sweetheart
I dont understand bridges, like the 3x4 doesnt work for me
OHHHHH NOOOO
@oblique raptor you can get to all the tiles under the bridge it's just really really really annoying but I did it yesterday
goals
I need that little moon pond design
is anyone gonna give input about what I should put my campsite or no
@patent sky what! how!?
I need that little moon pond design
@humble echo
Me too
I made this island neighborhood idea and decided not to use it so maybe some one will like it
Weird q but whats your favourite set or just single peice of furniture? Mines definitely the type writer
@oblique raptor you kinda have to shuffle around till you get just the right angle from the square in front of it it's annoying
But it is possible
the garden wagon is the cutest item
Yeji i love it is it ok if i send it to my friend since shes getting the game tomorrow
@vague parrot can I see ur map
@candid oriole go ahead :)
Thankss :O
@unreal fiber omg I love that! Been struggling with how to design a place for my villagers
Can anyone help me with explaining bridges, like the placements
what path for my cafe n museum area?
I need entrance inspo
@trim surge if you use it show me! I’d love to see
@tough shoal what exactly do you wanna know?
Lol here's an "inspiring" entrance 😂
So my orchard is 3 tiers and has 2 sets of stairs, it's where my little thing is where I'm standing, but I kinda wanna move it to the bottom left but it would take so. long.
@patent sky like what's the tiles for them? I saw that they can be 3x4 but that doesn't work for me
@vague parrot and u want to know what stuff to put around it?
@tough shoal theyre 2x3 to 2x5 I think there's a thing in the pins
@humble echo mainly where I should move my campsite
Wait 2x3 and 2x5?! There is no way! @patent sky
@merry inlet if you're feeling it there's no use in not trying
@patent sky except for $300000 bells I dont have 😂
Gah I need entrance inspo
@vague parrot you should put it where there is a natural element. Closer to an orchard or forest
I have a weird entrance but i like it so.. ill send it in a minute
I have a four or five tile bridge
@humble echo thank you!
Like it says in pins 4x3, 4x4, and 4x5 but I've done the 4x3 and it's not working not sure what I'm doin wrong
i dont know if anyone has tried this, or if links are allowed haha but i found a website on reddit that allows you to create an idea without wasting a ton of time to realize it doesnt work in game in the end. I dont want to post the link in case it isnt allowed but if you want it you can dm me and i'll give it!
@tough shoal it's picky about edges and cliffs it would help if you were to post a pic
Happy island designer ?
that website is saved in the pins
it's a different one haha, i find it a bit easier and more simple but that one works too!
Oh feel free to post it then
i've been working on my shop! teddy's house is on the other side of the cliff. not sure how else to incorporate houses in my cottagecore attempt of an island smh
should i clear and completely redo my island? i was new and it looks horrible
it warms my heart that lulu likes the pics I took on her island
I wouldn't clear it unless you have a solid plan just work on redoing bits at a time
i cleared my entire island except my river and i dont regret it at all! its time consuming but its so worth it bc its like a blank canvas @severe geyser
Like I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong with the bridge
it's too thin silly
Its 4x3 though
i would but im horrible at decorating and idk what i would do so im looking for inspiration rn
4 long and 3 wide
“You will sing K.K. Bubblegum and you will like it”
@severe geyser suree whats the worse that will happen it might take ages but it could be really amazing :)
Is the bridge going horizontal or vertical here
totally didnt time travel to summer 😳😳😳
summer is just,, too pretty om
Vertical towards the beach
@pure nimbus HE LOOKS LIKE HES CRYING (sorry if its a girl)
Sherb is a he
it's this website https://bobacupcake.itch.io/island-planner at least i couldn't find it in the pins. if i overlooked it my apologies 😄
are the regular paths good or are custom designs better?
Anyone has suggestions for what to do with nooks cranny and able sisters to help fill in all that space
Can anyone give me suggestions? I don’t know what to do I’m stuck at a dead end
I think it's because of the corners make it wider? Tbh I've never seen someone trying to to this
It's bc there's too much land on either side
yeah
So basically it would be easiest to just water scape it all and bridge then just add land to where its needed
yes
yes
Roger roger
finishing up my neighborhood
Also there's no benefit of custom vs stock paths I basically use all stock ones bc I like the tippy tappies and you can curve edges
Except terra-cotta.
Her and I don't speak.
Should I make this into my new shop area? Or should I make it into something else?
Apparently my entryway helped inspire a few people on how to deal with an "off center" resident center so I thought I'd post it here. Hope it helps!
I think that'll be cute
Omg thanks mine is a bit off
What do y’all think of This?
and now im insecure about my terra-cotta neighborhoods 😂
Does anyone have any suggestions for this? It’s been empty for over a week and I have no inspiration 😭
anyone have forest pathings I can look into like an something with alot of trees
What should I add here, I’m thinking a washing area, a star viewing area and a pottery station maybe
Park, cafe, hiking trail, graveyard, occult summoning grounds, rest area, garden, amusement park, headquarters of the nook cartel, library, restaurant, altar to meme turtle
summer is just too good,, i can't—
@real orchid
Occult summoning grounds........ you’re on to something
Can anyone give me inspiration for their campsites ? 🥺
@real orchid like custom patterns or areas in game?
@patent sky just seen one of your photos just up before, was wondering if you have the QR code’s at all for the plant signs? if not then that all good ☺️
@humble echo oh thats nice
@tender sentinel here's my campsite
@patent sky nah not custom patterns just how people do their layouts for trees/bushes and stuff for foresty areas
not unless theyre time traveling
@soft sparrow this?
I love thatt!! @patent sky
@patent sky oo code for the black and white stripped blanket??
Yeah those, do you have them for all of them or just the one? @patent sky ☺️
anyone have codes for good paths?
@real orchid tyy
i'm finally happy with my house area!!!! so so pretty at sunset
Mawu what QR code do you use for uour raised deck
@real orchid I'll try
ooh i like that
@soft sparrow search it by creator code and they'll all come up
Can anyone give me the QR codes to all the villager faces? I saw someone put up plain wooden shop signs of their villager's faces and I really liked that idea
@chrome bobcat #custom-design-help🎨
@patent sky okay, Thankyou lulu @patent sky 😌
Oh thank you!
@round compass
Tyyy
Does anyone have a good a path code to lead from house to house. Also suggestions for all that open land and nooks cranny
There's an entire #path-codes channel
Anyone got a zen area with bamboo, with dark paths?
Not sure what to do in the corner. Any suggestions?
Should I keep this area or add like a upper level?
@rancid lagoon Park, cafe, hiking trail, graveyard, occult summoning grounds, rest area, garden, amusement park, headquarters of the nook cartel, library, restaurant, altar to meme turtle
pls send map inspo !! 💗🌳🍎
Anyone’s able sisters still open
@oblique vapor personally I vote upper level
@round compass #690093605821480980 this is an actual moment where the #690093605821480980 channel applies here 😂
Ohh ok
anyone have good island inspiration?
@dark echo
@patent sky I agree I just needed some one else to agree with me to😂😂
can you put a bridge between two upper level cliffs if its over a river?
If the river is also on the upper level cliffs yes
@turbid fulcrum no the river has to be in the same layer as the bridge
@dark echo
I saw someone with a cool zen area with dark paths but i don’t remember ahhh
@patent sky for the upper area what should I have? I am going for a natural themed island
i need a graveyard on my island tbh
thanks! anyone have a pretty example of a rock garden?
RIP your stone supplies
named all three on what i have lol 😂
Hey does anyone know what I should put here? It's a path to my museum, I've already got seating right in front of my museum so idk what to put on this little island
Also it's the only way to the museum so I can't fill it up too much
you can add a path with statues
Idk what to put here someone pls help😊
Stick some lights on either side
or artwork or simple panels with info
I don't have any statues, and need them for my museum :/
fake statues not real
my campsite
@arctic agate Park, cafe, hiking trail, graveyard, occult summoning grounds, rest area, garden, amusement park, headquarters of the nook cartel, library, restaurant, altar to meme turtle
u cant donate fakes
Yeah but I gotta get the real ones when Redd shows up lol I have like 2 artworks
Simple panels could work though ty
@patent sky thank you!
what kind of statue would look good here? i want something bigger tbh but let me know what you think
Valiant statue
i already used one, idk if i want to add another
that one looks nice just add some flowers and custom paths
Use all of them
i need more statues lol
valiant statues are so gorgeous, i havent gotten my hands on them but im using my beautiful statue in my garden
@Beanz#5625 that planner looks dope. Gonna give it a go tomorrow
Poor game design
idk if i want a valiant statue there. i’m thinking maybe of adding a gallant or robust?
@woven drift same😩
they better add it in a update
Do robust no one uses it
or i’m gonna go bAnAnAs
Nah it's not that bad, I mean it wouldn't make that much sense to be able to? Idk, I kinda like how they limit a couple of things like that
well nO
I think it's because it won't fit on the beach
now the goal is to find a robust statue from people won’t charge me 5000 nmts
Too big
also why don’t the paths connect with residents services
Although I think they should've changed where exactly it spawns, like why did they make it so it can be 4 spaces away from the airport smh
@dim copper just find a day with redd and tt back and forth till he has it in stock
annoying AC Tingz 😔💅
Well also if you didnt plan before getting your island like me i would want to move RS
That's why I don't plan things lol
The devs didn't anticipate 80% of the player base wanting grand crazy entrances
true
Ya lol
Makes sense
also it’s not symmetrical with the airport
I would hate to have mine straight lined up lol
so my entrance is ugly
I mean my entrance is just an empty area with a river
i wanna reset so bad but i also don’t
Literally just put flowers
Bruh I hate how this looks. Ideas so it doesn’t look as awkward
I hate how resident services is like 3 spaces off the airport entrance for me
@hot lintel sane
Same
@pure nimbus curve the edges?
oops i @ ed the wrong person
@thorny hare ahh ty
Lol rip danielle cohn
can you guys share some museum entrance ideas?
Much better
@crude berry that's what I'm struggling with rn too lol
also i get discouraged when i see these amazing town pics
Does anyone know which channel I would use to commission an artist for a custom design? I wanna see if someone would be willing to help me design a flag for my island
Guys tex is in my camp should i get him ?
the museum is annoying coz it's 7x4!! like it's so hard to center the dang thing
No
i lied. i like the beautiful statue
i wanna reset so my Res Services is in a better spot buts that’s it
@woven drift dont be! your island is an outlet for your own creativity and everyone has different ways and process times to portray it
I want to reset so bad but i a already have 130 hours lol
Finished it
i have the creativity of a walnut
Here's the garden and the lead up to the museum entrance
@patent sky sToP
@patent sky Holy shit the work on those waterfalls
museum entrance you can’t see 😅
omg can y’all please stop
😂
Does anyone have any cute little shop areas😊
i can't get the stairs up to the museum line up with the doors!!
@chrome bobcat ty those took like 5-6 hours and I had to call rescue services four times
i made a spirited away "bridge" on mine but i dont have pictures
@modern halo BROOO thats amazing??
Uhhh I made 8 bit Link with my island name under it
OMG WHATT
@humble echo ty it took a lot of time and I can safely say it’s finished
@arctic agate u cant see it here but this leads up to my nooks cranny near the RS
Thanks a ton!
Felt that XD
@arctic agate heres nooks and ables, I have a market/bazaar also
@modern halo its so unique and different
Love it!
@humble echo I had to Create all the designs
How are u guys getting such clean i@ages
@arctic agate i also have the able shop next to nooks but its on a cliff with the natural incline and some waterfalls
@arctic agate
Post images from switch to twitter or Facebook
Ahhh
my island entrance said 🥴 compared to everyone else’s
What kind incline/bridges would look good with the terracotta paths?
@humble echo apparently that's a banned word but...I see that sign next to the Able Sisters lol
key note here is that i snatched the left side waterfall thingy
Probably the brick TJ
@modern halo u did a damn good job. i wanna see a tour of it
that's pretty cool but fuck must be awful if you trade a lot
@uncut spindle welp 🙇🏽♀️🙇🏽♀️
@humble echo I will open my island in like 20-30 minutes
this is my museum entrance. Way more straight forward because I am not a super creative person.
How does this look?
That’s pretty cool @uncut spindle
Good, but you should put a path there also I think
@uncut spindle good!
@uncut spindle GIVE ME YOUR CREATOR CODE
^
^^^^
Do you guys like this part of my island I think it came out nice😊
Does this place need a platform for sinks? Or does it look okay
Sinks?
@sinful drift i think it look good
Can u drop carpets outside?
You cannot
no
I mean rugs
@dim copper shhdhs my island entrance (not fully seen) is worse than urs.. urs is amazing 🥺 🥺
nope sadly
What about hanging things?
Nope
Outside possible?
nope
nooo :(
@woven drift your entrance is so nice!!
sinks?
aww it’s so cute! part of my now wishes i didn’t do stepping stones but i think they’re cute 🤷🏻♀️
thamku..... i had to work with little space since my market/town area had 4 wide and i wanna do 4 wide for my town hal stuff too 🥺
urs is cuter tho!! the stepping stones r lovely..
yall yall im so excited ima make maple a little honey shack shes gonna be a beekeeper
Aww
her catchphrase is honey she is babie
Meanwhile i forgot to give my villagers a yard 😭
@woven drift your flowers and color scheme are so gorgeous!
Some of my villagers say beanie boo and boppers
Morning
Does anyone have layout tips for someone who doesnt have terraforming yet?
ty ty;;; i wish there was hybrid white flowers!! instead i have to use seed flowers :((
Gibbs!
GIBBBBBSSS
@versed wadi morning
yuh sadly her house is in the wrongish area for it so ima just move it somewhere it'll fit!
@visual mountain grit through the pain and optimize each of your days so that you get terraforming ASAP 😛
yall lucky if your residence services lines up with airport 😦
Anyone build anything good overnight?
@visual mountain if u can sketch it out it will save you literally half a million bells and 2 weeks of moving
That would actually be my worst nightmare
it must be an early morning for gibbs
Is aligned RS with airport
@versed wadi I built a pottery and washing area ^^
Off-center RS's allows for some super creative entryways
Boring and not realistic imho but not a lot of people like my entrance tho so lol
@humble echo ooooh. Show us!
Garden in my first city — is there too much goin on here or does this look alright?
i built a drive in movie theater last night @versed wadi very surprised on how it came out
@versed wadi i already showed two times haha, i dont wanna be annoying 😅😅
Looks good! I would consider adding more flowers tho tbh
id move the rock out and put a craftable rock item
so youre getting all your supplies
I think @grim cosmos is the only one who likes my entrance besides me 😂
@patent sky I like your entrance, its pretty and different
where should i put my villagers houses? i hate where they are now because they don’t have yards
I understand your entrance
I just wanna come home and go in peace
Is there any tutorials for this design?
can’t make it right >.<
because I've seen your whole island and it makes sense
My character is tired and just wants to curl up
Bless
Hit me with some mountainy-forest vibe pics
@humble echo this chat moves fast. Plenty of people lurking ain’t seen 🙂
my callingg
other people just don't get it
@north sun Chief is spoiled
@north sun
I forgot who took that pic I'm sorry!
@north sun
@patent sky great use of the Taurus tub
@versed wadi truee here they are
Is there a way to like, get an entirely new island?
I dont like the placement of my town hall
You can wipe your save but you lose everything
you can go to the settings of the switch and delete save file
youd have to start all the way over
i’m also highly considering cutting out that entire portion of the river because it takes up too much space
Work with your rivers, love them... you can also just narrow them
those rivers do seem pretty big ig. if u want then smaller, go for it!
yall playing the same game as me???
No
wtf
what are u playing
my island looking bland as hell compared to that
Stop flexing your so creative😂😭
Is there like, a way to move your town hall?
a little tour of my market area... still a huge WIP but i’m happy with it so far!
@vestal geyser nice!!
Im really liking my zen area
oo can we see
yayy
I'm late with the entrance post and mine is still a work in progress, but this is how it currently looks. Those stone arches were a labor of love.
((Can someone please come to my island and find out why I cant have 5 stars?)) Dm Me if so.))
can anyone help me figure out where to put all my villager houses? i want them close together or in groups of 3-4 but i just don’t know where they should go
@obsidian oar you should just find a nice opened area, then build all the homes in nice straight set up lines
When laying down the able sisters next to nooks cranny, do you align it with the back of nooks cranny or the front of nooks cranny? Idk if you guys get me but if you do you should say what your preference is
@obsidian tinsel BEAUTIFUL IM SO JEALOUS!! i can’t even make a entrance bc i have no room.
@cedar spoke I didn't really match it up , I just put them in close proximity
@trim finch maybe to the left of RS? or 5 on each side?
yes!!! that would look soo cute
thank you!!
if you wanna see my villager area i can open my gates! @obsidian oar
i’d love that!
ok! i’ll send the code in a bit!
thank you !
i have two questions (:
- can people please send their campsites? need some ideas, i love cottagecore style
- i need some help with the exterior of ketchups house as well
Ik it’s a super small area but any ideas on what to add the top?
@vast tinsel
I'm excited to do my campsite
@vast tinsel i’ll send my campsite! i made it like it was in the middle of the woods with lots of wooden furniture! and maybe for ketchups exterior you can use red items bc she is red!
@humble echo like if they're right next to each other the able sisters will look like they're up 1 tile because of the way their entrance is
@versed wadi oh my word that campsite is amazing
idk when it'll happen but it gonna b cute
@oblique vapor flowers, star items, a waterfall
@vast tinsel
@vast tinsel idk if you've seen this before
Anyone offering tours?
Finished my marketplace!
@timber depot 🙂
I'll take two more for tour DM pls
@cedar spoke oh I see I misunderstood, yea mine aren't even next to eachother
thank you guys ur always so helpful !!!
I'm only gonna do one round lol
The campsite was my eureka moment for the rest of the island.
@oblique vapor I have something similar I put a star gazing area there.
Hey guys
can't wait
1 or 2? (1 is exact tile aligned with nooks cranny and 2 is 1 tile lower than nooks cranny)
Made my first flowery planty market place!
I’m trying to start island designing so what should i do as an entrance from my airport? any suggestions
cute!
:D!
@humble echo I am opening island code is FD65H
@cedar spoke I'm pretty sure 2 is aligned
Yayy
I have a couple other cool areas you could visit too
The angle is ruining it
@grim cosmos I made sure 2 is 1 tile under nooks cranny
anyone who has a neighborhood could you dm me and show it to me? :)
Cause like the entrance of the able sisters makes it look like its 1 tile higher than nooks cranny
Anyone is welcomed to join too my island is still a wip though
I have a few areas done though
I’m trying to start island designing so what should i do as an entrance from my airport? any suggestions
@plucky compass it depends on your goals and how close your resident services is. try searchingin:island-layouts entrancein the search bar
ooof
slowly working on my street market... any suggestions?
My entrance is very plain but it's a smaller area so I can't really do too much
I think that's neat though
Should I swap out the benches for crescent moon chairs?
Should I swap out the benches for crescent moon chairs?
@heady dew maybe 1?
@heady dew try them in white
Test them out to see if the look nice
And if so swap garden lanterns to white
i wouldnt recommend putting only one, as that could throw off the balance there
does anyone have ideas on what to do with the rest of my space?? or terraforming/waterscape ideas since a bunch of my island is flat
👉👈
Any recommendations I’m not in love with it yet bridges are gonna be on either side
@tender quail id reccomend putting perhaps a national park there, thats what im doing
Gonna add a mini park inside of my garden area... not sure what pavement to choose. Help!
1️⃣ for brick
2️⃣for arched tile
for fun you could also make another account and have a secret library hidden there too!
My nursery is complete
@tender quail mabey a diner or cafe were your standing
@brazen tree have you considered terracotta? Really brightens the island up
@brazen tree ive found that the stone path looks much nicer in garden areas
not the arched stone path, the other one
Does anyone else have problems with this bridge? I can't erase or smooth the corner right next to the bridge! It's just stuck there.
how should i spruce up this area? i want mushroom lamps but don’t wanna spend all my nmts lol
It's too close to the bridge to smooth out
@woven drift i mean if you smoothed it there it wouldn't even be symmetrical
@woven drift i recommend just putting it under the hedge
I can't even erase 😔
The game allowed me to place the path, but not erase it.. it's dumb
can anybody send me pictures of their neighborhood
LF: 5 stars ⭐️ island tour with a friend!
I’ll pay entry fee! 😊
I need juicy ideas 
@dim copper you can use perhaps some bushes and flowers
I had that issue yesterday @woven drift try erasing the ones around it and then redoing it
i like bushes. totally forgot they existed
I regret starting over from scratch, but I crossed the Rubicon
any ideas for entrences? show me you disigns.
do placed weeds reduce island star rating??
@worn fractal is it erasable that way. Like can I completely remove the square. Bc that's what I want to do
Hey, I need some ideas. I have a 3 star island and absolutely no idea what to do. I have 2 homes in this (the second home is completely empty and i wanna decorate it as a shop or something) i need a lot of ideas. i’ve done nothing
@noble vigil I don't believe so
i keep posting this photo and idk why but i’m rlly lovin my entrance. it do be kinda bland
I don't think weeds have a negative impact on island ratit, at least not in small amounts
Awesome, thanks
I like how it looks Jad. I'm going for a rave theme sorta like EDC/Tomorrowland, and that entrance gives me ideas ❤️
so my gf and i graduated today! our ceremony was postponed so we made one!
does anybody have a 5 star town? if so can i visit :)
@woven drift it's because of your hedge, remove that tile of hedge
Cuteeee
Any advice on what flowers might look good (on the dirt paths to the side)?
@patent sky it's not the hedge
Mine was 5 star, don't know if it still is because I removed a lot of items to prep for terraforming
so my gf and i graduated today! our ceremony was postponed so we made one!
@green forge Congratulations!
@inland plinth mind if i come?
FINALLY GOT THE INFAMOUS CLOUDY BRIDGE PIC
Sure! I'll DM you dodo
@green forge Congratulations!
@versed wadi ty!
aaaaaawwwww
Oh still 5 star yay
She’s not here but she’ll never be forgotten
xD
RIP
wait what happened to her
@noble vigil id say some red and yellow roses would work well with the color scheme of the museum
My queen is gone
perhaps also some shrubs like the tea olives
@noble vigil id say some red and yellow roses would work well with the color scheme of the museum
@glass forum oh that sounds really cute i'll try that!!
thanks 
yw! i used yellow and pink for mine in the end, so dont be afraid to experiment with other flowers of the same color!
heres another tip a well, when deciding what flowers to put around a certain building, dont use the central color of the building, use secondary colors. In the museum, i used the red/pinks because of the red banners, and the yellows because of the gold medallion thats above the entrance! using the secondary colors not only helps those colors stand out more, but it makes sure that the main color isnt overused or seem like to much!
@glass forum damn bro you write too much and too poetic
Lmaoooo
Gibbs I worked on my cafe more
@grim cosmos show me!
thats very pretty!
ty
Hey everyone, would love to see how you guys decorate the bridge area
That looks amazing!
hooray!
I like it more in person than in photos
that little library thing is my new fav item though
especially in that color, so darling
I like it more in person than in photos
@grim cosmos most of my island is kinda like that, some stuff just doesn't screenshot well
yeah 😛
maybe!
walking around certain areas
should update my island map at somepoint but lazy lol
or maybe I can get better at pics
when i get screenshots i use my twitter since its linked, then downlad the image and delete the tweet
I posted this before but I don't think anyone responded, does anyone have suggestions for this little island? I feel like it's kinda empty with just these info panels
id sya perhaps add some custom design flowers on the ground
I like palm tree lamps maybe do that and custom flooring
that way real flowers dont cover the bottom half, while still looking like it has more!
And maybe floor lights
i dont think palm tree lamps will fit there
Ooh floor lights sounds good actually
though the floor lights area a great idea
@uncut spindle fences and chairs
Ty guys
Np
perhaps uses a different color for each one
Yeag
like pink for the pink panel, green one for the green panel, etc
i want a tiny library so bad and can’t make one because i don’t have any books
I only have 1 colour of floor light :( but that would be cool
god when nooks sells books you KNOW im buying em out like
i think if you got to cataloguing youll get a good deal
the price to catalogue them has gone down i believe
Idk, I don't really like cataloguing tbh
@glass forum I have 1 you can use for ur catalog!
i mean maybe. i’m not paying 5 nmt to catalogue a book
dw i dont need the floor lights for now!
Jad do you want a book? i have a ton in my house
i dunno how to feel about this
I mean I don't like to time travel so I feel like cataloguing defeats the point of not-time-travelling
you can have it for free, i dont mind
how do books work? you can just go to nook shopping and order them once they’re in the catalogue right?
yup!
Yeah they're just regular furniture
i need your guys' help! should i put a house here, or the able sister's shop?
I think my campsite is finally getting there 🙂
id say ables sincew nooks is so close Licia
what fence would work best with tom's house 😳
perhaps make that a shopping district, add an outdorr cafe nearby
ty volty
I agree with Ultra Voltey@naive patrol
tysm 😊😊
Tigler, i recommend 3, the stone fence, long board fence, or hedges
all depends what your planning on putting around his house
if you’d like to give me a book, i would gladly take it. but the question is, are you looking for anything specifically right now?
@dim copper blue flowers
nah, i got everything i need now!
I'm not really sure how/where I'd put the fences
(There is another house behind it so the right will be a path)
ill dm you my dodo code in a second
thank you so much! (:
Hi everyone! Just joined the server and am looking forward to being a part of the community here. Here's my campsite! Ignore the striped lines -- they are a part of my island's map system.
perhaps you can put them sparingly, so its only on one side of the house
id say the right side would work well
cause then you can make the path go by the river, which would look very pretty
@uncut spindle Where did you find those panel designs?
For those Catalouge/Trading Parties
anyone have any heavily forested and mountainous areas
@boreal thunder I don't know, you're the 3rd person to ask me and I just cannot find the code :C I've been looking for about an hour but I just cannot find it sorry
@blazing burrow just the light dirt path wont cut it. Use circles of stones and dark dirt for a more natural feel
Here are some
I have to go to ur island to get fragments? Hmm
Covering Poppy's shift at the farmers market 🍎
anyone have 5 star island i can visit?
@polar dagger I reserved use of the darker path for the upper levels of my island, which are targeted to be more natural. I sort of like the paths as they are presently on the first island level. Trying to strike the balance of developed and natural!
When did you guys get 5 star islands? Were you even “done” with your island. I’ve heard many people say they were barely starting and already have 5
I got mine when i was halfway done with what i was doing
@glass forum did you have a bunch of furniture and flowers around the island when that happened?
Yes, mainly for stuff like the ourdoor cafe, arcade, black market, and also since most of ym island is covered in custom designs i used lots of nature looking furniture
When did you guys get 5 star islands? Were you even “done” with your island. I’ve heard many people say they were barely starting and already have 5
@warm dew I only had a few areas completed when I got 5 stars. What helped me get 5 star was fencing, flowers, and placing items. I usedabusedthe hedges and country fence a lot
i can grab some images of how mine looked when i got 5 starss if you want
country fence is the best fence. change my mind.
of course not
My island looked like garbage when I hit 5*. I'm finally close to being happy with it and i'm back down to 4 star
That would be cool! Just curious as to what I could work on for sure
Isabelle needs to back off McGibbon and reinstate your 5 stars
i also had stuff like outdoor libraries and stands with stuff like drinks
i can grab some other areas as well if youd like! ill grab the black market and more traditonal village areas
I think I've finished the northwestern rural zone of my island, so did an update dash through to showcase the main areas. https://twitter.com/pipwyn/status/1261537048478904322?s=20
A dash through the fields, farm, stargazing area, museum gardens and old ruins that make up the rural northwest #AnimalCrossing #ACNH https://t.co/LuxIl3kJWh
How do you make that happen!
@grim cosmos Fixing the flow is my current goal for the week.
for personal reasons i’ve decided to pass away. how y’all get yours to look that good😭
I dont know what to do. Any ideas?
I'm curious how it'll turn out! It already flows well to me
so i'm building a staircase and the surrounding paths are stone. Should i just stick with the stone stair case?
Caught him singing during the loading screen 😂
🤔
I'm curious how it'll turn out! It already flows well to me
@grim cosmos It didn't, i've moved like 2 bridges and 3 inclines this week but it's getting there.
I'm excited to see more!
should i go with the stone staircase?
Idk it it's what you're going for but here's a pic of Hyrule my friend made @trail plover
Who?
I go schleep now
@brazen tree have you considered terracotta? Really brightens the island up
@worn fractal I am currently using it in my main plaza area leading up from the airport to the residents center... I was thinking of changing it, so maybe this would be a good spot!
Peace broski @manic lantern
That is one of the best LoZ islands I’ve seen
@grim cosmos did I give you the dark brown menu chalkboard? I've just found one in my inventory.
sry it's so dark but those paths are stone
doh!
baahaha! I didn't want to say anything!
I don't need it, but you said that the brown one is the one you were after.
give me 5 mins
hahahaha alright 🙂
are there any nice naturaly entrances here?
Everything is natural here lol
Thoughts on my castle town?
Not done quite yet. Gotta add the tavern.
https://twitter.com/templesbay/status/1261538698337718272?s=20
any ideas on where to put the shops? the campsite is gonna be behind my house but idk about the shopping area
irdk D:
Ok I know everyone is chill here , what’s a reasonable price for wooden shop sign diy
Free
looking for inspiration for a marketplace!!
Someone tried to say that they were offered 1 mil bells for it
@slow dagger Have a goodnight bro
That's ridiculous
how do you get that diy?
I have no idea but I’m not giving away 1 mil bells for it
uhh I paid 1-2 nmt for the one I got. just keep looking
bottle by the beach, balloon, villager crafting it, or just handing it to you
or #diy-trade
