@zealous pendant I think it's because those type of edges mean I've made a mistake and saved an image in the wrong format at work.
@hazy girder What's new? Do we have a backlog of inspiration to indulge in?
@versed wadi I hate making custom pathing -or custom anything it’s so tedious
Kobe
I like those butt fruit trees
Issa peach
LOL
It’s a peach ?!? I didn’t know 🤷🏻♀️ @elder wagon
The booty fruit
can i get some tips? idk what to do anymoree
I’ve always called it butt fruit
Bless the Peach 🙌 🍑
late night ren
can i get some tips? idk what to do anymoree
@molten swallow BBQ area, maybe some poolside beds? add some coconut juices
Bless father Ren
Add some drip
@molten swallow you can add coconut juice
thanks guys!!
Or like a stall with the shaved ice
i like that!
@molten swallow add the stall here
5 AM is best hour
5PM has the best music tho
I really do tho 😳
is it just me or are diagonal bridges the hardest to place
That’s not mine !! It’s from the girl whose name we shall not speak from the island which we will not name
5am the best music
its me too charlie
I wish to become as great as @zealous pendant
I'm basing my island off 5pm jams
she's my idol
@manic lantern i’m struggling to place this lmao
wip thoughts/suggestions? still need to add some lights
I'm basing my island off 5pm jams
@elder wagon yeah 5pm is really great too,
nah Time for me to go hit the hay
Can someone come to my island and help me where to put my rivers for my city lol I'm struggling
love you long time
@west marsh Every one of those magical island has had hundreds of hours poured into it. Won't be surprised to see 1000 hours on some islands soon.
If you keep at it, what's saying you can't be as good, if not better? :)
@woven drift Appreciate the words and encouragement!
I would love to see some photo of jurassic park theme! Thanks
Thanks everyone! :)
yw
I will try some things
I like find the normal ground easier to decorate?
Dont know why
cliffs same idea just less items
more guiding and supporting ground level design
I gotta search for nice wooden plank designs
so flowers to match the pallette and trees to guide the eyes
has anyone made any beach house sorta areas?
Thanks!
Can i get opinions on my market please?
Not really em but i did make a campfire with some wooden seatings around it
RS is upgraded! man it's just so pleasing walking up to it and seeing it correctly in the right tiles with the airport.. 
Get g n o m e d
@manic lantern i think rhe ambiance is nice
@meager warren You mean where a house is actually on the beach?
Thank you guys I try my best 🙂
@manic lantern I love it ! You’re improving
Diamonds on my fist, no disk
Is it possible to get the same island on different switches?
Big oops
I would love to see some photo of jurassic park theme! Thanks
@woven drift I did a dig site themed on that bit at the beginning.
Come to my big stepper no stilts big tilt mansion
the rug is awkwardly large, the overall market is a bit incoherent design wise. I think if youre gonna do a market stick with a general theme for it so all the designs and items go together.
No negativity Ishtar 🥴
@shell tiger kinda, I have a house on the beach but I mean more the decoration around it
There's no such thing as a large rug m8
@grim cosmos sheesh always coming at me LMAO
what! I'm helping
Make your market 100% rug
thank you ❤️
Nothing else
some people cant keep themselves from hating I guess 🤷♂️
alright
@elder wagon these are the recommendations im here for!
I don’t think that was hate , she just wanted to help ;/
^
Exactly
do y’all know why i can’t place this?
I like designs that aren't normal
thanks 🙂
Constructive criticism is still crisiticism ,🤡
Lmao I'm just here to propogate arguments don't mind me 😂
Make some real weird shit and I'll love it
Luv u all
Like you know being “ unique” and not copy anyone else’s style/ island
Anyone have any really awesome island designs that are also somewhat simple at the same time
aight so apparently my brain doesnt want me to sleep so i guess im pulling an all nighter
Isn’t that why we are here for ? 😭
Anyone have any really awesome island designs that are also somewhat simple at the same time
@pseudo viper What do you mean with simple?
Im always gassed up lmao makes it funnier
Chids youre too good to us 😩
I like the rug keep the rug @manic lantern
@shell tiger like nothing too crazy I guess, just like a regular island with a really nice design... ik I'm not too good at explaining 
Should I make the rug bigger?
Yes
hmm
bigger and maybe add 2 more rugs
@pseudo viper I really want to help you, just Im not quite sure what you mean hahaha
I want a weed plantation
Maybe add 10 different rugs @manic lantern
Maybe put some items on the wood bench at the left stall too? @manic lantern
@shell tiger I guess like an island with no general theme. Just like a simple island where everything is neat and it all looks nice. Sorry!!! Its okay if you cant help
Do ya’ll feel like this is good enough or should it have more furniture and items?
It’s always nice to have things in front of you stall , especially on things like boxes , benches or tables
@west marsh definitely more items , but I like it so far!
I want a banana plantation
Bananas should be a new fruit in the next update 
I want a channel for arguments
About what
Fruit
who can design my island
@clever minnow I want grapes lmao - give me a grape tree or give me death
LOL
well what i dont want to
Lol
Then don't lmao @woven drift
No ones gonna do it for you
lmao this clown
You?
if you get me 1k Raymond fleas ill do it
you bought a game for $60 and don't wanna play it 😩
I heard it through the grape vine
I accidentally gifted marshal his fleas and now he got them sitting in his house... 
Lmfao
LOL
wow lol
Please be nice to each other guys 😅
They need to add lemon trees again
I love almost everyone here ❤️
Anyone have pics of good uses for the Giant Robo? My friend gifted me one but don't really know what to do with it lol
ALMOST?!
I know it might be frustrating for people to come in and straight up ask for someone to do their island, but please try to be more gentle when telling them to do it themselves. thanks guys

@wispy cairn is it ok if someone comes in here and asks to do their island for irl money and or bells in game? i've seen it a lot and not sure if it's in a grey area or what
oki I b gentle
I'll be real gentle with you.
@wispy cairn is it ok if someone comes in here and asks to do their island for irl and or bells in game? i've seen it a lot and not sure if it's in a grey area or what
@timid kernel if they're looking for design services then try to redirect them to #690093605821480980 , this channel is mainly for discussions and inspiration
🐰
I'll be real gentle with you.
@elder wagon 👀
does the discord support those types of deals though?
@zealous pendant That goes for you as well
imma rabbit
Can I visit someone’s zen/Japanese island? Please dm me!
Hey guys relax I think we're all improving here!
Less bickering, more island flexing
Does anyone have tips on making islands look nice? Please dm me I’m really stuck
@wispy cairn i'm just wondering if we should be reporting people like that (example: I'll give you 100$ if you help me design my island) < if that is allowed or not.
@cold pollen @raw axle has a nice Japanese island
guys i fell asleep during the show
Stop complaining start building ✨🧚🏽💕
hahahah ^^^^
@grim cosmos The band's already left
@wispy cairn i'm just wondering if we should be reporting people like that (example: I'll give you 100$ if you help me design my island) < if that is allowed or not.
@timid kernel if they're offering real money then defs report it, if they're just offering in game currency then just redirect them, but you can send in a report if they keep posting it here
thank you
anyone got any fairy themed islands?
How can i improve this
People keep telling me I need more water. Should we report them 🤔
Less water
Ill show something fun, When I first got terraforming / pathing
Too much
if i hand you a cup of water will you be offended @manic lantern
To my island in progress now
water is important for our health young man 🤡
Highly I might return the game xD
you're on an island, too @manic lantern 😤 don't listen to the haters
@wispy cairn I'm back bb ❤️
eeek!
@manic lantern Do what your heart tells you, though I recommend at least 2l per day
Time to start Pipwyn 2: Pipwyn Harder!
eyyyyy congrats, i love that design! i got mine at walmart @ release xD
I'll also post here looking for feedback/advice once I stop procrastinating and start designing my island 
@versed wadi are you for real?
@wispy cairn What you working on?
Can some people show me their camp sites I am trying to see what would look best with mine
ohhhhh my goodness gibbs!!!
iirc i don't think any mod regularly visits and talks here so you may be the first if you do
(maybe visits but just doesn't talk, idk xP)
Tbh I'm working on starting hahaha.... I'm not sure what direction i wanna go with my island bc i've seen so many different ideas, also half my island is covered in flowers from breeding so i wont be able to start designing until i get rid of them first
I lurk sometimes but don't really have anything to contribute heh
that's smart to do early imo, you may need a lot of a certain flower
Open
You should do what I did make each villager their own unique area
i just wish we had extra storage for stuff like flowers and what not, 1600 slots just fill up so quick
Hey how can i improve this place lol
@shell tiger Do You Do visits? I don’t remember if I asked before! 😳
@tall kindle What do you want it to be? Camp?
Please let me know if you need anything to catalog or any materials! I support pipwyn v.2!
Can some people show me their camp sites I am trying to see what would look best with mine
@modern halo
then your island becomes more and more filled up as you design so less free space for flowers and what not
@tall kindle What do you want it to be? Camp?
@frosty ivy a fishing area
Pipwyn 2 yesss
@rugged rain I might soon 🙂 still doing some reconstructing but ill deff open when thats done
@tall kindle maybe add some cute trees!
@tall kindle Have any tournament stuff? Might be good
@wispy cairn - Use cliffs to your advantage to create zones, then you can easily deviate from a single theme in certain areas when you want to stretch and have a bit of fun.
I need some entrance inspo mine is so rubbish 😭 pls send pics x
Thanks
@sinful mesa lemme holla at ya
That sounds good, there are way too many different things I want to do to fit into a single theme
That looks really nice a big too @shell tiger
what can i add here? really need some tips
I'm toying with not even doing a traditional campsite area, right now it's snug next to my seaside cafe
Entrance
Mine is on it’s on lil cliff
Shameless second upload @sinful mesa
Where I just threw all my camp things on
Should I make a neighborhood or spread out the homes?
The most neglected part of my island
Where should I put the last house?
Going for a nature theme
@trail totem spread emm
New Switch is staying in the box until:
A) I've finished the first island
B) I've bought all the protective stuff - I can't treat this one as badly as my battered up OG one.
what difference should i make here? add something? what? ahh i need help
I don’t know how to spread them but I’ll try 😌
Wait until I sell my xbox ill be joining you. I know the Destiny 2 is highly wanted
@versed wadi Are you gonna do a whole new theme?
@woven drift thank you, i like that idea!
Can anyone tell me where can I place the last house?
Maybe above the top house on the right?
@raven kindle Above the right set of 3, I suppose
on the beach 🙂
I think so, probably something a lot more developed this time round.
@raven kindle Wow the way u placed ur buildings is so similar to my layout!
Oh geez
As if it wasn't developed enough
Roads?!
@clever minnow can I see yours? Haha
My stuff is so random
This is my island so far (ignore villager house placement and the shops I am working on those). Needing advice on flower gardens. I am wanting to make a giant flower garden/forest/picnic area ontop of the "moon" cliff but I am unsure what flowers look best (or how to place them). The lower part of the moon area is my new campsite area.
that kinda developed?!
As in not so natural/rural
Cats and Dogs please
That’s my progress lul , me when I first discovered terraforming and pathing vs when I Improved more vs my map from yesterday:)
@versed wadi If you are going to do roads, I saw this and its some of my fave pathing I have seen for cities
Can i visit anyones aesthetic themed island for ideas?
@shell tiger Sometimes I wonder if I'm playing the same game as everyone else lol
Hahahha don't we all
McGibbon is a beta tester
God I want to go back to my city theme
Come on and slam and welcome to Japan
@shell tiger ab your campsite question
not the turtle beach please
The left side of my island looks bad on the map. But is my favourite part of it to walk around
Hahaha Bacon you could always do both, City center and rural outside
You still need ideas for campsite?
I’m medieval themed currently
Same ^
Well bootleg medieval
@versed wadi mind posting posting some pics of your island?
A
You still need ideas for campsite?
@dim knoll I dont think I asked the question, I responded to someone who asked that question
low budget medieval I love it
What should I do with this plz help
my island is all over the place
my island is a reflection of who I am
apparently its dry af x
Its right that designed paths dont show up on the map right
Jup
I feel like I could add more medieval items like what mcgibbon did, but then I’ll have to find room to place them across my island
@dim knoll yup thats why my island is all paths haha
@versed wadi mind posting posting some pics of your island?
@west marsh There's a load on my twitter - http://twitter.com/pipwyn
You can put them on top of normal pathing, but might look weird sometimes
Check this out, random af
Agree @n e wayz
lol
@normal elm nothing for right now . This was how my hybrid farm was lol
Hi strangers 👋
Them eyes tho ✨
@scenic blaze ❤️
MOTHRA OMFG
Half my island was a farm at one point, but tending all those flowers were a pain in the grass
Kinda sad that my resident service is in front of my airport🥴
GM. Im looking for a soccer field patterns. Trying to get my soccer field set up.
my resident services has a wack ass placement too but I embraced it
We bought a house! So I’ve been moving and not online 😢 but I wanted to say hi and lurk for a bit this morn
Can someone help me I don’t know what to do with my island design I’m trying to go for a elven forest sorta theme
Same kind of
GM. Im looking for a soccer field patterns. Trying to get my soccer field set up.

trying to make entrance cool even tho resident service is really close
@tiny oar MA-8080-0801-2835 This person has soccerfields just dont have a pic
@shell tigerThank you! Will try it out.
@scenic blaze congratulations!!!

Anyone have tips on how to spread out houses?
@dim knoll https://streamable.com/evihr5 i like mine bring in front 😄 RS upgraded today and i can't wait until i can customize more
@timid kernel Looks good so far brotha
Anyone have tips on how to spread out houses?
@trail totem Think about where your villagers would want to live, and then build that environment for them.
@manic lantern jesusss man go to sleepppp 😂
@timid kernel after i did terraforming i kinda like it too :)
@manic lantern jesusss man go to sleepppp 😂
Right, I gotta go start painting the shed.
I'm trying not to worry about how my map looks because so far all the areas ive done on my island look atrocious on my map so
Can i visit anyone their island :x
@manic lantern did not expect to catch you at this time hahaha
Back later.
have fun!!!
@versed wadi what colour?
What is sleep
I wont ruin flowers i hate that myself too xhdhdhs
@shell gyro the hustle never stops haha. alright im off
It’s 6:32 am
@versed wadi these questions are important
Kimono Pink
Right, I gotta go start painting the shed.
@versed wadi is this what my life will be like with homeownership now
@manic lantern the irony
I don’t even talk to my residents enough to know what they like 
@versed wadi good choice
I don’t even talk to my residents enough to know what they like
@trail totem start with their exteriors then. Townhouses in a town, log cabins in the woods, shacks on the beach 🙂
i don’t know how to set up my villager house, spread out or in a mini village . can someone help meee
Both can be nice
@trail totem I’m currently trying to get all my villagers’ framed photos but it’s so much talking/gifting 😩
It's actually some sort of light grey, think it's called Pebble.
I prefer to spread them out, personally
@scarlet heath I used to have them liek this in a little area
But rn im spreading them out more 🙂
@shell tiger oooo ty i think i’ll go for something similar
Some together, some apart!
I hate how custom design paths don’t show up on map...
I pair them in groups and spread them out
It's like a travel book lol
@versed wadi
ty everyoneeee
Booty bay
gotta go, or I'm in trouble. Later
@versed wadi your island is incredible omg
Byeee
I will be hosting tours soon on mine! ❤️
This aint get enough love last time I posted so here it is again
Wow it looks great @clever minnow
Far from finishes but mine are spread out like this
@versed wadi bro you have a whole vacation island or sum👀 👀
@slow dagger can we get that pinned?
Gonna have to ask a mod or someone haha but I think we should get it pinned
The dimensions for 7x6 and 7x7 are the same tho
@clever minnow omg i would love to join
@slow dagger Thats so awesome, love how u got everything planned out 
If they post one where they fix it I’d say it’s worth pinning but since it’s wrong right now let’s leave it lol
Yall so talented
@scenic blaze good spot!
Sounds good
Not gonna get fixed tho just just save it on ya device if you wanna use it 😂
@versed wadi go paint!
Are a few people able to show their museum place 🥺 i need ideas
I might use pipwyn 2 to do little guide things like that.
At least at first
I need a capture card, they’re as rare as Raymond fleas in the uk!
That’s the entrance to my museum
That looks cool
@versed wadi maybe one of the best island map layouts I have seen. GG
After having terraforming i have so much island space that i dont even know what to do with it
Looks like a bouncer
I wanted it to be a lil mini guardian version from botw
Please can someone help me out I just unlocked terraforming and I have no idea how to layout my island
My Hobby area I finished yesterday
Josiiiii you’re my queen
@frail estuary i always watch youtube videos
@scenic blaze aww 🥺💕
So you’d recommend that ?
@marble sapphire thank you 🙂
@frail estuary here's a south/east layout a friend of mine has if this helps at all
What have people done for the front of Able Sisters? Need ideas
just very proud of this, it was 800k bells moving all my houses to where they at (which included my mess ups if it was a square off lol)
800k well spent imo
@frail estuary you always have such nice words for everyone, tysm I really appreciate that!
Love the mini waterfalls
Wow thank you that’s really kind
So do you think I should just start by making all my land flat ?
We do be matching doe 🥺
@slow dagger your friend has a very cool map! i was thinking about doing a design of 3 buildings being inside of a central shape as well but decided against it for now, i'm glad it looks great though inside of it
@odd island Here's mine, put some items and designed an unfinished kimono to put next to it
I love the terracotta pathing oml
@slow dagger @woven drift yea tytyty
@frosty ivy thank you, that looks amazing!
@faint path Haha yeah, it's my fave pathing tbh
@woven drift Thanks! Tried to match it to the colour of the shops
@naive oasis Looks great! I personally would flip the bench round
@frosty ivy will try now!
if anyone has a heavily terraformed island; i'd love to visit!
I really don’t like my current layout. Does anyone have any tips for how I can improve? I have a few things near the plaza that don’t show up btw.
@naive oasis do you have the codes for that path/stones?
@naive oasis im looking for the codes too xd
@frosty ivy this better?
Does anyone have any general island design/layout tips? Please dm me
@slim sandal yes this is it. It isn’t mine
Tysm!
does it look weird that the fence is so... bumpy? what can i change?
@naive oasis I think you sent the same pic
Thanks
@naive oasis wow i love that!
Can someone help me I don’t know what to do with my island design I’m trying to go for a elven forest sorta theme
@molten swallow My kingdom for diagonal fences 😭
@noble gulch that’s very noice
@naive oasis Nice! That feels a bit more natural to me
@frosty ivy brill, ty for the help🤍
@woven drift thats looks so cute especially the colored flowers give it that certain vibe to it
Can’t sleep so I’m taking videos 😴 https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1261611245129527303?s=21
I just ruined my island someone help waa waa
@noble gulch you could try make things between 2 cliffs like more closed, snug
@woven drift i like that idea, i will try to plant some palms and see how that looks! thank youu!
And then those pine trees with colored lights? @noble gulch
Guys help!
@gritty comet
Nothing
Anything you guys would change/add to my park entrance?
Bridges and waterfall areas around the left top corner, anyone
Can anyone send a picture of your instruments area?
@frosty ivy no it looks perfect from my opinion
I picked up a flower
It’s gone 😪
ISHTAR this looks amazing
@Ishtar I thought you said goodnight
@grim cosmos this is so cute!
@grim cosmos omylord thats so guud
My subconscious knew tonight someone would need instrument inspo
good stuff
Agree we are all to addicted to ac and say 1 more minute every time instead of sleeping
Random but here's Melba's and Marina's houses that I've been working on today
🥺 u guys warm my heart
I fought with the idea of putting a fireplace outside but you've used it well @grim cosmos
do it!!
Seeing those pics makes me wanna redo all my paths now 🥺
@raven kindle I hope those pics helped
mothra I was so sad you weren't on when I finished it but yipppeee
Take care of the furry babies
or baby
What’s the best way to make things snug but not cramped? Like everything on my island is surrounded by empty space. Is it bushes? Fences? Trees?
cliffs too I think
cliffs are really good for breaking up the empty spaces
@grim cosmos I’ve tried adding cliffs in areas but it looks really unnatural and forced so I need to make them bigger or sum
I recommend adding cliffs with flowers or waterfalls in empty spaces
Any design ideas for big fishes island?
yes
Tysm
extend cliffs to support areas you're working in
I had this area and it was too open
@pallid arrow Got any pics of it's current condition?
so I pushed in the cliff that the stall was against and made it into this
more cozy feel I think
You condensed it a bit
@frosty ivy this is it
Looks unreal
um ty
@pallid arrow How about the areas you're trying to make more snug, a bit hard to get a sense from the map! Do you have a theme in mind?
I'm still working on my Island can you guys tell me how it looks so far?
@gilded sail it's hard to tell from the map
Oh okay hold on
After some changes and makin sure everything is symmetrical what do people think of my entrance?
Any suggestions? And any examples of how yall did your big flower garden patches would be appreciated for inspo (-: -> I currently have: a little stargazing area near Nook, a reading/library valley. Sand/stone zen garden. Museum plaza with fountain. Cafe behind museum.
Overall theme: oriental/asian
I dont have a pic but the Japanese street market is pretty popular
Finally an Able’s layout I don’t hate 🥳 https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1261618759866830848?s=21
Cosy 😍
I love it!
My unfinished small shopping area, not sure about it 
@versed wadi thanks Gibbs 💕
Hang on
Guys wanna see what I did
gas station, drive in theater and mini pub for stitches and dizzy!
@woven drift that's lovely! Really like the palm trees
@woven drift Looks good! Though your trees block the view of Nooks a bit
@scenic blaze Is that a ukulele?
What can I do here? Don't tell me a cafe area, I have one already
It’s crazy how I’m still seeing new items this far into the game 🙂
Does anyone have their island map to hand? 🥺 Trying to find inspiration for my island layout as I'm beginning to terraform!
Some have been posted not too far back!
Working on a galaxy themed island! Not great at terraforming but I’m pretty proud so far!
Some have been posted not too far back!
@frosty ivy Yupyup!! I've been looking at them~
Mine
Does anyone know the total amount of DIY recipes and general items in the game?
@woven drift #datamined-info night have that
Ty!
@scenic blaze What's the left watery area for? 🤩
@frosty ivy it’s a swamp/ruins area lol
May I have a peek?
Oeeeh do you do visits @scenic blaze
how do you guys even feel satisfied because i always see something rly cool and i wanna redo mine
Mandy is a very courteous visitor 🙂
If you’re on mobile click it, there’s three pics https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1258075185200001025?s=21
@slow obsidian I don’t think I’m EVER satisfied with my island lol
@scenic blaze Ohhh very nice
idk where to put all my villagers housesss
This makes me so happy
@kind escarp The colours 😍
@rugged rain I plan to soon but it’s not ready yet 😦 sorry
@slow obsidian I don’t think I’m EVER satisfied with my island lol
@woven drift It's so hard to stick to one thing ;A;
@slow obsidian there’s always something I want to tweak. I’ve got a to-do list on my phone of all the thinks I want to fix 🙂
@slow obsidian Build, redo, rinse and repeat until satisfaction is achieved. Haha
@woven drift 593 DIYs, 3483 furniture (not including variants), 555 wallpapers/floors/rugs, 4647 clothing (not including variants)
That's so much! ty @balmy pond
what kind of areas should i make?
going for a rustic/cottage theme all I've got is a cafe, but i dont have the furniture yet
@brazen horizon Maybe some kind of cultivation area?
Noob question, but I cant get this right for the life of it 😦
Or a lumberyard
ill see what i can do :0
i think i need to redo my entire island now and just make the rivers and such hahaha
@mild lance try making it one tile narrower?
@mild lance can you take a picture of it without the text in the way? And overhead view?
@mild lance https://www.gamerevolution.com/guides/642684-how-do-i-make-an-animal-crossing-diagonal-bridge this helped me when I made mine
@scenic blaze I put the ‘finishing touches’ to the north west side of the island this morning https://twitter.com/pipwyn/status/1261537048478904322?s=21
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
decorated my rock garden a little, and i gotta say although it took hours to actually get the rocks in the places i wanted, its made the daily rock hitting SO much easier
@versed wadi wow!! It looks so different from last time I saw it!
@mild lance Watch this
https://youtu.be/amjgIgCLnu8
This is Episode 2 of Terraforming Tips and Tricks! A series where I cover all that I know about Terraforming in an easy-to-learn way! I will go through everything I have learnt and pass on the best methods on terraforming in Animal Crossing New Horizons!
About Animal Crossin...
Diagonal bridges are fun once you figure it out
@peak plover Nice! I know that takes a lot of time and patience
@versed wadi Your island flows together so naturally 🥰
do my rivers look weird ? they look fine when running around my island, its just when i look at my map i go :/
@mild sedge The main thing is that it looks nice when running around. Many people make use of perspective which isn't always reflected nicely on the map
@mild sedge in my opinion the map doesn’t matter as much as in-game. I understand if it matters to you though! In that case I think the one on the left would look more natural on the map if it ended in “pools” that are wider than the river is
alright thanks !
The nicest looking parts of my map are not the nicest looking areas of in-game by a long shot!
If you look at an urban island the map probably looks super flat and basic, haha
I just found a rlly old pic of my island before I terraformmed. So here’s a before & after transformation!
@frosty ivy yeah that’s true , maps do not define how it really looks in game
@clever minnow Must have taken a lot of work and dedication! Superb
@frosty ivy Ye, almost 200 hrs haha 😂
@clever minnow really nice and thought out
I’m so stuck for ideas for my entrance because my airport is kinda close to resident services but I want waterfalls would someone be able to help me with ideas to fill the small space? Idk
@clever minnow I'd love to get a tour some time
@kind escarp how did you get star trees? They look so cool
This is my progress
@frosty ivy Sure! I will start hosting tours tomorrow 🙂
I love progress pics
Same @scenic blaze
@faint path Amazing, those paths are insane!
@clever minnow tysm!
this is my plan for now, it’s meh, but i’d like to know how you guys would change it
i love these progress pics sooo much... high key wanna tour every single island
I'm actually in a similar situation with my RS so trying to think of an idea for an entrance
Despite what I was just saying... Josi’s map is the best looking map I’ve seen 🙂
my RS is really close to my airport too ! this is what i settled with at the end :))
@mild sedge Looks really nice!
I frickin love josi’s map
Can anyone suggest a light source that would go well here
Looks nice but I'd say that's still a decent distance haha@mild sedge
I need to redo this again. The bikes are a bit overpowering now.
Oh that's clever 🤩
Do you think this works? The cliffside is going to be part of my museum area, and the rest is going to be a zen/bamboo area
I like the bikes! I can see how they take up a lot of space though
Need a bit of help. Im thinking of putting my shop here, however unsure what to put around it. As it’s the edge of the cliff side, any ideas would be helpful. Thanks
@pseudo briar looooove
@pseudo briar please can us see those paths in the back centre
the tiny stones?
@marble ocean I decorated my nooks with red, orange, and yellow flowers
The mixture of big and small stepping stones looks cool
@marble ocean I decorated my nooks with red, orange, and yellow flowers
@scenic blaze thank you! I was thinking lots of flowers, I wanted a couple of trees however I won’t be able to unless I expand the cliff side ☺️
?
My Nook’s has a picnic bench and busking area nearby. More functional than pretty, inspiration hasn’t hit for this bit yet.
here you go!!!!
@pseudo briar sorrry I meant, how does that area look in-game 🙂
oh!

@versed wadi
Followed!
early development pics
@clever minnow i love before and afters! very cool 🙂
@timid kernel Ty! 
Requesting pics of tight villager houses 🥰
thank you!!!
@versed wadi What if you would flip it, but put the tree like half in front of the bikes? dont mind my photoshopping LOL
im super happy with it
Robin’s photo editing strikes again
@scenic blaze Ssst, they havent seen the other photoshop skills hahaha
i need some terraforming tips as i have reached this point in the game. I don't what to do and where to terraform for a decent layout/design.
i have so much free space and have no idea what to do
It makes it so much easier then explaining lol
Give me another reason not to do the spa
i have so much free space and have no idea what to do
so any ideas would really be appreciated
It makes logical sense for there to be a spa there... but I don’t really want one.

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated ^^
@cunning pollen it’s better to give the shops more room around them for decoration. Also the bridge being right on the corner of the RS may be tight
i kinda don’t like this area, but the path is nice😌
I could do a more cafe like restaurant and use merengue
Or maybe do the seafood restaurant that side and find a villager that would work for that
so any ideas would really be appreciated
my island theme is inspired by a movie i loved when i was a child
@cunning pollen Hey! What sort of theme are you going for? :)
@woven drift honestly anything symmetrical i suppose
my island is inspired
by a volcano, and my islanders live around the remains of it
:D
cooo
@cunning pollen it’s better to give the shops more room around them for decoration. Also the bridge being right on the corner of the RS may be tight
@bitter inlet that's how my current island is like ingame
cool*
jade mine is also tropical if u wanna come by for ideas?
i can dm you a code! when you free?
in 2 minutes
so i’ve got 4 inclines and 2 bridges that lead to the beach and to the museum
@cunning pollen Okay, so from personally seeing people who do urban areas. I've personally taken in that people like less of the rounded edges, Straighter rivers etc.
If you want a rural area. There is a great link I can show you which can give you pointers for more of a natural looking feel. Honestly. I'm not shrugging you aside sending you a link. It's genuinely just the best worded guide I've seen to date for terraforming
@woven drift sure send it my way. i haven't begun terraforming yet
@woven drift This is a small part of mine
I’m gonna try and do bendy river plus urban. Think it could be fun. I mean just look at London!
red, orange, yellow, and blue flowers look nice for tropical themes
what do you guys do once you’re done with your island?
i have a whole part for red and orange anemones
what do you guys do once you’re done with your island?
complete the museum
@woven drift Work on ur house 
Do it again? @woven drift
what do you guys do once you’re done with your island?
@woven drift Redo island again, because I keep not being satisfied lol
or quit acnh
@woven drift Work on ur house :D7_Bark:
@clever minnow This lol
and start a new file for animal crossing population growing
i was contemplating that tbh @woven drift
i completed the fossils in acpg
i’m about to do so here too but i want to get all the fish and bugs
Idk I enjoy having a certain area for a week and then I want to try something new, I went from more city to Rural, who knows maybe ill try something else after
is is bad that i’m scared to spend my money to move buildings?😣
❤️ hahah ty
i’m paying off my house today yays
Who’s a nautical villager that could run a fish restaurant?
zucker
Zucker, octavian and Marina
my house is a mess and i want the cute set but it’s sold for way to expensive here
and every other ac server so
Those are the octopuses
i have marina
Octopi 🐙
Ocatavian is the best suited imo
Maybe it’s bc I’m a vegetarian but the thought of an octopus running a fish restaurant makes me 🤢
Big fish eat small fish
has anyone eaten an octopus
Many times
Looked like Zucker
I wish I could get Kapp’n as a villager now he seems to have retired
Bears eat a lot of fish too
I’ll take a look at penguin houses in a bit 🙂
Zucker’s a no. He’s already been evicted
Zucker's too lazy and would probably eat the stock 👀
I need entrance inspo
Hi guys. Pls send help. Where is the best place to for ables and nooks? Im planning to put my house on the top part of my residential area. I just finish my entrance and i have no idea where to put museum ables and nooks :(
@woven drift I have some cute furniture, we could touch trade if you want!
Thoughts? My RS is in a weird spot and there’s a house to the right of the waterfall that I don’t want to move. The waterfall is what I just added to sort of hide the houses. Would it be better to fill in the heart pond I worked so hard on to move the houses or does it look fine as is?

@ashen vapor
I reccomend:
Museum in a recreational area
Shops near entrance and easily accessible as possible
Where do I put my campsite? It's in an awful spot right now :/
Hi all. I would like to ask if possible to move a house and destroy a bridge at the same time? Thanks

@tidal igloo thanks a lot :)
@tidal igloo thank yoy
LMAO
I try to make my island look realistic with its rivers and stuff
and the map is so developed
my island is really underveloped and i somehow have 3 stars
So guys
Need some inspiration for around residential services 🙂
Okay I think I’m gonna bite the bullet and fill in the pond so I can move houses because I’m kinda getting an idea in my head. RIP an hour + work
@blissful smelt I think it looks fine!
@pseudo briar could you send a picture of your map? :D
@pseudo briar Ohhh can I visit you aswell?
Party at @pseudo briar's island xf
HOW DOES SHE-
XD*
HOW EVEN LMAO
Please could somebody give me ideas on where to put my campsite?
Lol sorry I don't wanna be annoying/spammy
@pseudo briar that is stunning omg
i need 2 become a tour guide full time
Please could somebody give me ideas on where to put my campsite?
@uncut spindle
What is that large checkered thing un the corner?
@pseudo briar Holy moly
@tidal igloo in the top left? That's my orchard, I also use it to give myself reference of size on the map
@ everyone whos comin
LF: Anyone to help me build a Zen\ oriental garden
Will pay 50K bells
we got a few ppl comin so please wait until i close the session to leave!!!
Oh trees would help. I’ll move some and then send update pics.
@woven drift ooh yeah that's a good idea actually, I forgot that I have like nothing there haha. Do you think it'll still look good next to such a huge dense orchard though?
@woven drift true, but I can't really put it in the orchard itself (need those bells lol). I also kinda wanted to use pine trees around the campsite
My orchard area is tiny
Its more like a lil farm area, I have my yellow hyacinths, a few bamboo trees, and custom design path to look like soil. That's where I store my turnips
Mine is 5 X 15 trees I think
@uncut spindle this campsite I saw on insta is super cute and kind of goes with the vibe you wanted
Mine is 4/6
It's a pretty small one as well so something similar could fit nicely next to your orchard
Does anyone have good ideas for island entrances? I hate mine and want it better!
@wooden hearth oooh that looks nice
Took a video tour of my shopping district this morning 🥰 https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1261611245129527303?s=21
Do you think I should teraform that area a bit then? Since it's kinda big
@woven drift I personally like to use cliffs to isolate it a bit
I feel ashamed for sending the same picture twice in like 10 mins sorry y'all hahah
That looks so nice @wooden hearth !!
GUYS IM GETTING A CHILDHOOD MEMORY
That looks nice! The issue is that my air port is at the end of the beach so there isn't enough room for that)):
BYEBYE CHEERERRRRRRRRRRY
My entrance is probably too small to add that much, resident services is pretty close to the airport :(
@woven drift aww thank you!! It’s been weeks of tweaking haha
I'm lucky because my res services is pretty far away
What can I do here?
My entrance
@raven kindle you could put a cafe there maybe?
@raven kindle maybe like a little marketplace with clothing displays or something?
Mimi looks nice!!!!
@woven drift I personally like to use cliffs to isolate it a bit
@wooden hearth
chefs kiss
👌
Ohhh I like that Mimi!!! So is the airport directly in front of the incline?
@sinful drift your entrance is stunning omg
@sinful drift Lovely 🤗
I think the incline right there was a great idea lol
Teehee
Yeah it is a good idea!! Its beautiful
I need to do that lol
My Resident Services is slightly to the left of the airport so I didn't know what to do with the entrance, but that really looks great
why cant we relocate resident services?!?!
my res services is so far lmao
@wooden hearth I feel your pain
@wooden hearth I'm jealous
ignore all the buildings on the beaches lmao I'm rearranging
I hate my river mouths though
They are both on the bottom it's so annoying
Mine is so close
My brothers res services is one space off center from the airport and it's really tragic
@frosty ivy same, but mine is further to the right, so I really can't do much with the entrance lol
Yeah mine is like 3 off
@strange topaz cute!
@wooden hearth using a more natural Kind od mixed stone path, you can pretty easily shift one tile to the side along the way and it won’t be super noticeable
@proper grove my brother doesn't care about how his island looks it's kinda sad
Which is the reason I bought my own switch lmao
Well I guess that sad layout went to the right person at least? Haha wouldn’t it be the worst if you got that and he got a good one and didn’t even care to use it right?
@woven drift thanks! Ahaha I know what you meant. I’m just glad I’ve settled on something that doesn’t make me have to uproot a fifth of my houses
I have to move ALL of mine a few tiles over 😵
My plans are big and my work ethic is tiny
I got ketchup on my island today and now my duck pond area feels so complete because her house is there
I pick them more on there personalities
Mine are all normal, lazy and snooty lmaoo ( and 1 peppy apparently)
@tidal igloo If you need help with your plans don't be afraid to (omg I'm so sorry)
axolotl questions
@woven drift
Okay!!!!!!!@!
This is what my entrance looks like but it's likely to change when I get some inspo
Okay my island is kind of a mess rn since I'm moving buildings and stuff
So ignore that xD
omg same
But this whole middle area is planned to be the residential area
my island is all over the place rn
@frosty ivy ooh the black garden lanterns look so cool. The only ones I’ve had are white but that works on my island
(My idea is to have the river as divisions, and have them loook like natural rivers)
@woven drift I gotta acknowledge a good dad joke lol
that sounds really nice @tidal igloo
The middle section will be residential
hi all, would a lakehouse/cabin concept be better on:
- the lowest level, bottom left corner of the map, or
- the second level, top left corner of the map?

@unique pond
1
2
My island still looks bad because I only recently unlocked terraforming
I feel like it would be better at the back of the map
THANKS FOR COMIN EVERYONE!
have a lake. and have rivers connect to it and have those rivers run off into waterfalls@unique pond
phew!!
@blissful smelt I'm happy to trade you a black one for a white one
@terse terrace that sounds beautiful!! i'll try to work based on this! thank you all for your opinion 😄
@unique pond I think two. Seems like it would be more secluded
don't get scammed 👀
Redd hasn’t been back to my island since the museum expanded. I am 🧂
Is anybody else going for a theme with what villagers they have?
@tidal igloo yeah, before I started I went through and picked the few species I liked them the individual villagers - then narrowed it down to compatible personalities. I’m too extra 😂
I only got him twice since the first time he visited
Hes trying to sell me a quaint painting
We have a town winner! My god, that was sooooo gooooood @pseudo briar
@tidal igloo yeah, before I started I went through and picked the few species I liked them the individual villagers - then narrowed it down to compatible personalities. I’m too extra 😂
@primal cedar
I'm going g for a food and magical theme
@tidal igloo The first one is always OK iirc
;o;
@frosty ivy ooh I might have to take you up on that! Can you dm me so I don’t forget? About to go to the store. After I convince myself to get out of bed.
sorry if some of you guys got lost LOL
I'm pretty happy with my villagers... I kind of want to get rid of Julia though
i would love to see everyone else's islands when i have the time!!
It’s alright, I would spend me life on that island haha
2 deer, all my fav goats, my 3 little duckies, and Marshal ❤️
@pseudo briar I'd love to visit yours one day too
I really want people to visit but I want them to visit when it's done
how did you make that? @primal cedar

@terse terrace every time I think I might be done after finishing an area - I run around a find 5 new places I wanna redo

but ill open up again for sure!
YEA EXACTLY. @primal cedar
@pseudo briar Haha not now cause technically I'm "working". Maybe another day

@tidal igloo
An then I have Flurry and Cyd as an extra
(Cyd because I dont have another cranky)
People I have this huge and I mean huge plot of land and I have no idea what to do with it
I kicked ribbot out because his lines didn't make any sense. my man ur a robot. u don't have muscles or sweat
our suggestion is to find some inspiration and pics and work off of that as a start @merry wharf
Good moooooorning to the best channel on this discord 🖤🖤🖤
thank u chids
Ok thank you
My bakery is finally at a place where I’m happy with it (:
Love the bakery
@primal cedar that sign is so cute
such a cute bakery omg
Once I find the barrel DIY, I might add one with a pillow as a bag of flour on top. But that’s about it. I have so many food areas lol
@woven drift Keep us updated!
Hi guys! What should I put in de middle here? Looking for inspiration 🙂
flowers
A statue? Or another stall
@umbral pilot Yellow flowers and beehives
What should I put in this empty spot?
@umbral pilot I vote flowers.
Oh yeah those bee house items
Need inspiration on how to have a flower breeding area 😩 how have you guys done yours?
@umbral pilot yellow flowers with bee keeper box thingy
@timber frost a park maybe?
@uncut spindle maybe
the flowers won't block anything an dtheyll be detailed and colorful enough as a centerpiece. and they'd look nice as a vertical column @umbral pilot
they'll also fit the natural thing going on
Does anyone have any pictures of like a stargazing area? I wanna use my Celeste items but I can’t figure out how to make it look good
Thats’s what’s left of the empty spot haha
@umbral pilot you could put more yellow/black roses then
any ideas of what else to put here?
@random turret I have my cloning gardens on straight cliffs with falls and at the end is a little chill spot
Yeah I might do that
I think you should do other colors to make the garden pop out. like red and white. don't do yellow everywhere
@umbral pilot Personally I think cosmos might be better
Where do you guys put your villager houses?
that bakery is darling aaa
@umbral pilot yellow flowers with bee keeper box thingy
@versed mural
I used pink k and white roses
Does anyone have some campsite inspiration?
@uncut spindle
Wowie
I’m also doing a neighborhood area, does this look okay?
My rustic wooded entrance for my cottagecore island. Hoping to give it a more overgrown feel once all the trees grow in.
@timber frost Oh yeh, I love parallel bridges like that
bridges too close together imo. I think of bridges as utility. try to use them sparingly for now until u finish ur island. @timber frost
lol here is a video of my bakery, across from my cafe. Supposed to feel like a downtown area
@terse terrace I disagree, I like it when people use bridges and inclines close together like that
i have way to much empty spots
Is there someone that has like an after the beach shower and cleaning area?
Don't forgot you can only have 8 bridges and 8 inclines though :)
True, but honestly you don't need that many@wooden hearth
The incline limit killed my original island plan
I had to destroy bridges to use elsewhere. imo it's better to spread out bridges apart so you have more use with each bridge.
I agree with Kim tbh
also it's a huge waste of money to destroy them
I destroyed 3 zen bridges... Saddest day of my life
also it's a huge waste of money to destroy them
@terse terrace
Omg ikr
@wooden hearth holy fucking shit
Just a regular day being Jesus
same
damn boi
that is why I am poor
I had to destroy like 4 things when I first redesigned my island, I’ve been much more cautious when placing them now >_<
I've destroyed most of my original bridges and inclines 
@atomic hedge how'd you do that??
I love destroying four bridges and inclines days after I built them
So I had to move Ankha house
A glitch on this youtubers island haha
@wooden hearth same, I deleted my first 2 bridges and my second incline
@terse terrace ooh yes that's my favourite as well
I’ve kept my very first zen bridge which is nice ☺️
I'm saving the Zen bridge for ankha
@timber frost Mine are a bit further apart but I used a similar idea.
@uncut spindle it really hits different seeing all that money just disappear 😔

I have alot of bells
what bridge?
anyone got a celestial garden I can visit for inspiration?
@woven drift maybe the wooden one? Since you're using wood
@frosty ivy thats gorgeous!!
there’s lots of wood ones
Who wants to tour around for some inspiration? Have castle ruins, a market place, zen garden, a club and jungle area, the full tour takes around 15 minutes. DM me if interested, I'm looking forward to present my island to you!
WOOOOOOOW
Wowie
oooh id love to tour in a bit!
Woah that's incredible
talent
@pseudo briar Coming from you that makes me happy 🤩
Can you send some photos @torn wagon ?
I would love to tour please 🙂
when people do Island tours, do tourists follow a leader or can u just roam?
Depends on the person Kim
Following the leader is better imo, you can experience their vision a bit better
I always want to roam but some people like to tour you around 🙂
what do i do here?
how did you guys come up with the ideas for your island layouts :(
@woven drift Picnic area?
if people can't tell what I've done without me telling them, then I've done that area wrong
@deep tundra I don't, it's called stealing lol
already have one picnic area
—-
@woven drift fountain and a stone sidewalk
I just do something and sometimes it turns out alright haha
isn't kakyoin already Asian wtf @knotty rampart
