floral topaz
#

brittle isle

swift depot
#

@brittle isle i think the stepping stones give it that extra touch

woven drift
#

💥

#

Like it’s like mini stars

dapper sedge

r the little stepping stones to create lil stars a good idea or do they ruin it

#

Their island is just so..

#

Pretty 🥺🥺

brittle isle
#

@brittle isle omg... u fixed it without touching it... teach me...
@dapper sedge ashdg idk what im doing most of the time tbh

fossil night
#

I was gonna design my island to look like Pennywise's face- but I decided I was too lazy. So I went with a garden instead.

swift depot
#

@brittle isle did the pattern i sent you help a bit?

woven drift
#

Just follow your heart mate and do whatever makes you happy that what matters when making your island

brittle isle
#

y'all flatter me too much </3 the terraforming is alright but i'm gonna ruin my entire island bc i'm so bad at decorating

kindred yarrow
#

@floral topaz saying its a waste isn't necessarily true depending on their layout. its nice imo.

obsidian tinsel
#

r the little stepping stones to create lil stars a good idea or do they ruin it
@brittle isle that's amazing! the extra stepping stones do look good

dapper sedge
#

@dapper sedge ashdg idk what im doing most of the time tbh
@brittle isle now i need a new purpose in life walks away with thought bubble

surreal sparrow
#

funny enough the most fun i've had in making things on my island so far was from me not having a plan

kindred yarrow
#

yeah fr fuck planning haha. just do what you think looks good. if it doesnt remove it.

woven drift
#

Big brain moment, making beach towels the same color as the picnic towel so you can lay together 😳

surreal sparrow
#

it's all experimental and temporary lol, thats my outlook

fossil night
#

I wiped my whole island clean last week 😩 it was a pain but I love what I have now

floral topaz
#

@kindred yarrow its an opinion and we only have 8 they onlt need two w/o a ladder if you think about it and it looks good just we literally only get 8

kindred yarrow
#

yeah that sucks i wish we could have more.

floral topaz
#

but the limit allows more creativity

tardy fern
#

Here’s some random outdoorsy areas from my island if anyone needs inspo

fossil night
#

What if we..laid together on the picnic blanket and held hands 😳 haha just kidding...unless

oblique vapor
#

@fossil night I am doing the same and I am feeling so good about it to! Completely worth it!

surreal sparrow
woven drift
#

@surreal sparrow i was extremely inspired by that

deep dove
woven drift
#

I was like “wait.. what if I..”

#

Epic 😳😳

floral topaz
#

what did they use to lay on for that

surreal sparrow
#

i'm thinking of doing that for my stargazing area

woven drift
#

Wait what anime is that from

fossil night

shell tiger
#

@woven drift I have the saaaaame ❤️

surreal sparrow
#

that reminds me that my main goal is to cleanup my island lol

woven drift
#

It’s a very small area tho

#

Like just a telescope and some like... some zodiac stuff

fossil night
#

I needed balloons for my carnival area but im so sad the only two balloons you can make are just so ugly.

surreal sparrow
#

it's literally just me fighting the fact i have my house, museum, and a handful of villager houses oddly placed

#

why are moving expenses so costly jesus christ

floral topaz
#

egg day items🥴

woven drift
#

@fossil night well we got three years of updates

#

So I’m sure they will make something nice

brittle isle
#

can’t u customize the egg day items ? i forgot

woven drift
#

I don’t think so

fossil night
#

This is true. Im hoping they'll bring back more balloons like they had in previous games.

surreal sparrow
#

even if you could (or can) they'd still be ugly

floral topaz
#

wow 3 years of this game

woven drift
#

Oop- ngl the egg day stuff could be better

floral topaz
#

egg day stuff is sb

shell tiger
#

I have sold all my eggday items, got quite some bells for that

Fang is such an old man but that’s why we love him

fossil night

Before I redid my island Wisp used to only appear on my second layer but now that I have so many trees on it he just strolls down my streets now.

Wisp roams on my beach

brittle isle

brittle isle

woven drift

My friend @random crystal is honestly like a queen at decorating her island

versed wadi
#

@grim cosmos How did you get your character to spread her hands on the piano. My dude acts like he hasn’t learned to play chords yet.

lapis temple
woven drift
#

I get super inspired by her stuff it’s great

grim cosmos
#

I used the "resignation" reaction

brittle isle
#

D: so do i put it one or two tiles lower or keep it like this ? it sucked so much to terraform it but i feel like it would look nicer

random crystal
#

Hi yes I am a goddess

fossil night
#

My biggest issue rn is- my beaches are empty and with a dark themed island I dont know what to do for it

woven drift
#

@brittle isle I think it good as is

versed wadi

Big brain!

woven drift
#

It’s a great statue

random crystal
#

Do you know how long I wait to get butterflies in my shots

woven drift
#

I’m using it too

versed wadi
#

Except it’s not really even a forest island anymore, I got bored and started adding a load of other nonsense

brittle isle
#

i wish you could just command villagers to stop moving when ur taking pictures

grim cosmos
#

i love not having any specific theme. everything ties together but it's not like one continuous vibe

woven drift
#

You can ask kali about how my island is everything but cottage core

shell tiger
#

omg or stop being in the way when terraforming /pathing lol

kindred yarrow
#

i need order lol

versed wadi

@brittle isle I’ve spent hours pushing them about!

clever minnow

Some of my friends are still duping as we speak... D7_pepeshrug

floral topaz
#

i feel like the game lost its fun when ur so rich u can do anything

shell tiger
#

I thought they just patched that?

clever minnow
#

They just don’t download the update

kindred yarrow
#

yeah but some dont update yet

floral topaz
#

thats so dumb to dup

shell tiger
#

Ruins the purpose of the ga,e

floral topaz
#

i hope there game crashes

random crystal
fossil night
#

Im too poor for the stuff my island needs so I make money on crafting fish bait.

clever minnow
#

Nmts will cost like nothing anymore 😭

floral topaz
#

thats why they patched it

fossil night
#

Omg Ruby looks so cute.

shell tiger

I wish like the thing from harry potter would happen and the duplicated items would just keep duplicating everywhere and they cant do anything anymore LOL

clever minnow
kindred yarrow
#

me having a bunch of katanas and lucky cats bc i put effort into it: worth 5 nmt now rip

lapis temple
#

@floral topaz well being poor and cant buy anything make the game boring too

#

@kindred yarrow Stonk

kindred yarrow
#

LMFAO

clever minnow
#

Lucky cats used to be worth like 60-70 nmts, am I right?

floral topaz
#

@lapis temple or finding ways to make money like turnips, shaking trees, ect

kindred yarrow

yuh rip

obsidian tinsel
shell tiger

@obsidian tinsel O MY GOD this looks ridiculous

dapper sedge

Nintendo should just wipe anyone’s inventory/storage if they have over 1000 nmts, ez fix

obsidian tinsel
#

Bianca just looking at the crowns like... wtf

clever minnow
#

@dapper sedge Yes, but people can still dupe if they don’t update the game

floral topaz
#

agreed

stoic bone
#

but what if people earn the 1000+
e.g. from selling villagers

clever minnow
#

They don’t need that much anyway D7_Bark

floral topaz

stoic bone
#

yup

surreal sparrow

#

surreal sparrow
#

I'm trying to do a mix of city and forest atm

random crystal
bleak tulip
#

i have just , really bad placement of my plaza so im trying to work with it

lapis temple
#

full on city theme will make land look flat imo

clever minnow
#

The bottom right side used to be a maze, but I’m currently making something else instead FrogYes

floral topaz
#

i have natural forest theme

surreal sparrow
#

It's hard making it work because I'm really picky with the divide between natural forest and city

median bridge
#

@surreal sparrow yeah my villagers live downtown and with all the shops where my orchard and zen garden are separated cause I really wanted to do both too

shell tiger
#

@surreal sparrow Mine is forest/tropical but made like 1 urabn street next to the beach haha

dapper sedge
#

back on topic pls
@floral topaz really u talk about nmt and people being rich. then preach about topic. come on its just some light banter.... ease up.

clever minnow
civic iron
surreal sparrow
#

i just started working on my island actually, i'm building a boardwalk area rn but everything else is going to be forest

#

i might actually add another village with the spare houses on the bottom left

floral topaz
#

@dapper sedge i understand but this is island layouts ur bringing up something now after a we just got back on topic if u have a problem dm me

lapis temple
#

@surreal sparrow i have similar theme

random crystal
#

With a name like “The Hood” you can’t help but think “forest”

clever minnow
#

@civic iron Ur island looks rich af lol

surreal sparrow
#

@random crystal I named my island the hood just because of that haha

shell tiger
#

Was inspired by Melbourne alley cafés haha, could not let Fang or Wolfgang live in the jungle hahaha

floral topaz
#

lapis temple
#

@random crystal true

surreal sparrow

Also so I can tell people to watch their back whenever they come for my catalog parties lol

dapper sedge
#

@dapper sedge i understand but this is island layouts ur bringing up something now after a we just got back on topic if u have a problem dm me

surreal sparrow

#

I’m going for a Tokyo city kinda deal

surreal sparrow
#

for me i'd like to see more color haha

feral swift
#

median bridge
#

@woven drift arcade machines might be cool

woven drift
#

The drabness contrasts with the nature side of my island

#

Arcade machines are a great idea

obsidian tinsel
#

@woven drift Add stools with things stacked on em, like the stone stool. Benches too.

dapper sedge
#

i wish barrels stacked.

woven drift
#

I’m trying to stay away from garden-y things since this area is supposed to be kind of jarring from the rest

median bridge
#

Oh that neon we’re open sign is a big city thing too

woven drift
#

That’s another good one

#

Oh I’ll add servers too!

surreal sparrow
obsidian tinsel
#

I’m trying to stay away from garden-y things since this area is supposed to be kind of jarring from the rest
@woven drift Yeah, that's a good point. You can set stuff on the barrels too. There's some city-like benches in the Redeem nook miles on the nook stop machine too.

surreal sparrow
#

I'm looking for the exact tweet that has that rlly pretty japanese town that uses stalls to mock buildings

Street lamps would be good too!

I was wondering if anyone had any sort of inspo for a multi-level housing area? I'm thinking of doing 3 houses at the top level, 3 middle, 4 at the bottom. Not sure how i'd do ramps and whatever so I'm wondering if anyone's already cobbled it out or has some inspo pics for me to base it on. Would appreciate it greatly!!

Hey everyone! I hope this is the right channel to post in since I couldn’t find one that was closer to what I need. I have a decent amount of time in the game and I really want to start utilizing the rest of my island. I haven’t used much of it because it’s inconvenient and the cliffs (3rd level) are horribly placed. That’s easy enough to solve of course. But my issue is that I’m not sure what I want to do and terraforming isn’t my forte. Any advice?

maybe give the villagers their own environments?

I usually give them a table and chair and whatever I associate them with, personality types may work too

theming the surrounding area to their houses style is kinda fun too

like example: you can put work out stuff for jock villagers

I gave this to Apollo (tho I have never seen him sit on that chair other than one instance lol)

@rancid flower you could have different themes in your island and place villager houses there that you think would belong in that theme

@halcyon lance I believe firmly in the approach too. It helps give your whole island a personality 🙂

Start with who the villager is, what does their house look like and then build the environment to fit.

Need opinions... so I’m trying to build my neighbourhood and I’m going for a more natural theme.. so I’m trying not to use any of the terraform paths I’m just using custom.. and I don’t know if to build my houses on different levels.. I have 2 houses on the ground level so far and I’m not sure if to build level 3 or just keep houses on ground and level 1.. opinions? And should I scatter them around instead of putting them in a straight line, seen as thought I’m trying for a more natural island?

This is the island design I've been working on so far. I've only just got around to starting to terraform and move everything (I took ages to decide, and now I'm paying so much money to move everything). =_=

The north strip of the island houses the player housing. It also features the museum and will have the camping site in the north-east, just west of the right-most player house.

The south-west of the island will be the residential area. It will house six villager houses, with another three more to the very south of the map and one slightly more north.

The middle I am working out. I am wanting to fit in an orchard, a park, gardens, and a music stage.

The south-east will have all the services moved around there in a more orderly fashion, with room for further buildings if Nintendo decides to screw me over in that regard.

I'm just trying to figure out right now whether I want the residential houses as they are, or have the two rows of three more uneven (so for instance the top row being in the gaps between where I've marked).
I've been using the pathways to try and figure out design.

So far, I only really have the very north strip of the island worked on....

Every single one of my inclines has been built, destroyed, moved, rebuilt, destroyed again, built at least one more time.

distant moat
#

I have made a severe and continuous lapse of my judgement

frigid stream
#

@distant moat lmao omg if that's not a mood

wet cliff
#

Yup I sold turnips in preparation for my redo

#

I figure it's just how things are gonna go, lots of expensive adjustments, but you can always put things back to how they were if you don't like it

#

Our islands will change and grow over time just like we do. Sometimes you gotta clear out some old to make room for new but it's okay.

Wise words

#

@versed wadi I move at least one a day still

frosty ivy
#

@distant moat I moved a house then moved it 5 spaces to the left the next day lol

distant moat
#

Spitting straight facts

proper grove
#

@frosty ivy I just moved abels back 1 space last night haha

distant moat
#

I've moved Chevre's house 4 times

wet cliff
#

I wanted a house one tile back so had to move it completely away then move it again bc u can't just scoot since the building is there

barren swift
#

should i center my pond with the museum path or center it with the land it’s on and ignore the path

frosty ivy
#

@barren swift How does it look in-game?

wet cliff
#

Center with the nearest path, museum is far enough away it probably won't be easily seen

barren swift
#

the path leads to the museum

wet cliff
#

I think it's nice where it is but are you wanting something to the left of it?

barren swift
#

i’m just not sure if i like it right up against my town’s path

wet cliff
#

Ahh yeah

proper grove
#

@barren swift the big pond in the lower corner? I would center in it's space, its far enough away from the museum

wet cliff
#

You could try making the pond part a tiiiny bit smaller

distant moat
#

I'm still unsure on what to put in the area surrounding the RS. Maybe fill it with water?

barren swift
wet cliff
#

I put cliffs behind mine but fencing also works

zinc mist
#

Need pointers on what to do with river etc. Tryna make it natural

proper grove
#

@barren swift yeah I would move it over or shrink it

reef remnant
#

in my opinion it shouldn't be as straight

wet cliff
#

right up against it
@barren swift see if you can fill in just a tile's width on each side to make space

reef remnant
#

make it flow more and be curvier (?) but if you just want a straight river then i think that's good

proper grove
#

@zinc mist to help it look more natural make it curve more often, and change the width every now and then

wet cliff
#

Wow you have really uniform beaches

versed mural
#

@zinc mist check our pins. The very first one is how to make rivers look natural. They need to wiggle

reef remnant
#

your map is so nice lol

clever minnow
proper grove
#

does anyone have a good example of not having all cliffs in the back? I think I want to use some of those rocky pieces but I'm all cliffs back there right now

#

@clever minnow wheres my boy falador

zinc mist
reef remnant
#

terraforming rivers is so hard when you're trying to create them

clever minnow
#

@stray zenith Top left is the castle D7_lovehearts

reef remnant
#

but maybe it's because i'm not the brightest

wet cliff
#

It's through a cute forest path

stray zenith
wet cliff
#

It's hard to put stuff behind cliffs bc of the lack of visibility

dawn pecan
#

@proper grove I probably can't find it right now as I don't think I bookmarked it, but I did see some very great examples of having parts of the area all the way in the back by Redd's beach on the first level and all sand, kind of making it an extended beach/boardwalk area

proper grove
#

ok that sounds nice!

wet cliff
#

That's a cool idea

dawn pecan
#

When I first started terraforming and making inclines I always thought "go up as you go back" but descending as you head north looks better than you'd think because of the cylindrical world

wet cliff
#

I like using the back rocks and fencing backdrops or using simple panels

proper grove
#

I have a lot of cliffs up front, and back

#

and middle really I guess

willow terrace
#

Will i be able to see everyone entrance designs i need inspo

dawn pecan
wet cliff
#

I just don't know what to put in cliff blind spots

dawn pecan
#

you have to descend to get to my museum and I like the look of it

proper grove
#

@wet cliff I throw hedges down a lot to at least keep myself from walking through them

dawn pecan
#

yeah that's tricky. fencing to take up space and then pathing above that?

#

oh good idea with the hedges

wet cliff
#

Haha yeah that's what I do so far

proper grove
#

and if you do happen to catch a glimpse it still just looks like natural scenery

wet cliff
#

Surprise egg fences lol

novel furnace
#

I need thoughts and ideas bc i'm trying to not make it look city-like and do as little terraforming as possible

dawn pecan
#

Should have made a ton of Zipper wobble toys and tossed those in blind spots

proper grove
#

haha put your most wild things in the blindspots

dawn pecan
#

That looks great to me, Penny. Only thing I'd maybe suggest is trying to make some of the houses more offset so they aren't mirror image plots across a vertical street. goes a long way to making it less "developed" or "city like"

novel furnace
#

ok thank youu c:

dawn pecan
#

Winding paths with trees and occasional fencing and bushes and whatnot is very nice to wander through and does not feel grid-like

novel furnace
#

(also for any new players i used happy island designer)

dawn pecan
#

It does look like you allotted the proper amoutn of space for each house, room to design around

#

err.. a good amount of space, "proper" is a weird word there haha

#

the one near the airport in the only one currently already on my island

#

i am very poor >.<

novel furnace
#

c:

#

IDK your overall vibe but a couple trees around/behind the house might be nice? it looks great though

woven drift
#

Good idea

halcyon lance
#

now to actually figure out how to place and decorate it all

woven drift
novel furnace
#

@halcyon lancehttps://eugeneration.github.io/HappyIslandDesigner/

#

the best website i've found

digital rover
#

Anyone got a Shrine area on their island? Need ideas for laying one out on mine

barren swift
dawn pecan
#

It's honestly hard to tell because I imagine putting a bush or something else decorative on either side of where the water is next to path might make it look great

halcyon lance
#

all these planning websites seem really neat, but actually visualizing anything in 2d like that seems impossible, dunno how you guys do it. i need my 3d :v

dawn pecan
#

I fall into that trap often where I make a change and I'm like oh no it's terrible and then I actually decorate it and it looks good

halcyon lance
#

find it a lot easier just having a rough idea in my head and doing it

dawn pecan
#

My inclination would be to avoid having water right next to a path but I'm sure you could make it work and look good

novel furnace
#

yea all of my friends are like that lol

barren swift
#

i could plant stuff in those holes maybe. i wanna be able to fish too

glacial steeple
novel furnace
#

@barren swift maybe like shrubs in those holes?

#

@glacial steeple i love it so cute

dawn pecan
#

right that's what I was thinking @barren swift . Having something planted in those holes might be a nice visual indicator like "hey fish between these two spots"

#

I say try bushes and see what it looks like

peak plover
#

has anyone got any suggestions on what i can put in a relatively small space? I have a little patch between a path and a river, but i'm not sure what to put there

barren swift
#

a combo of ducks and bushes maybe

novel furnace
#

flower field

#

(boosts your rating too)

peak plover
#

i already have many many flower patches xD

#

@novel furnace thank you! It took me forever to think of how to make use of the area behing my villager houses. Blind spots are a pain to work with lol

novel furnace
#

well then

peak plover
#

another wouldnt hurt ;D

novel furnace
#

np shadow c:

peak plover
#

maybe a combination of flowers, bushes and ducks

#

omg i could make like a little nest pattern for the ducks

novel furnace
#

aw that'd be so cute

dawn pecan
#

I had a 3x3 square to fill @peak plover and I just put wood pathing down with a bench and a water fountain and a phone booth. It kind of works?

hollow wedge
#

I need new ideas on where to place my villagers homes. Any advice?

peak plover
#

oo that sounds cute!

#

i think the area i have is like 15 squares or so, its an odd shape though bc of my river and the path next to it

hollow wedge
#

This is what i got but im trying to get all of them close on the same island section so i can use the other branches for parks and such

novel furnace
#

i see a lot of people have neighborhoods where they are all next to each other so they have room for parks and such, idk if thats what you're going for but just my two me's

hollow wedge
#

0w0 that helps

novel furnace
#

np! glad to help

peak plover
#

i made a little neighbourhood and it looks rly cute imo and leaves lots of space for me to decorate the rest of my island!

frosty ivy
#

@peak plover It's a good feeling when things come together

novel furnace
#

wait what do people do after their island is exactly the way they want it, with the best villagers and such?

doesnt the lamp post block the view of the bush? the bush is therefore unnecessary, either remove the lamp, or put the lamp where the bush is, that would give better view and asthetic
