had a little photo shoot
Cowdiaale it would look pretty if you put a path from the incline and a swing bench with flowers and a coffee table facing the path
Should I keep this area between my shops
So with everything I showed, I don't know what to put on the sides and the top. The second house and the guy with grey hair (waiter) is a second account I made, so I could make a little restaurant.
Jazzy you could make it look like a yard sale and put dupes there for visitors?
What’s the ideal island layout as far as rivers and resident services goes?
@woven drift it’s subjective
What bridge would look good here.(ignore the log bridge imma demolish it. Also ignore the skulls)
Stone if you use that path
@calm granite stepping stones
Ok lemme see how that looks
@fossil kiln ooh! where in your map is that located? 🙂
tysm! @brittle crescent
@fallen hare cute thank you for sharing! hehe
@fossil kiln ooh! where in your map is that located? 🙂
@lone flint The restaurant? Above the Resident service, other side of the river

Very pretty!
does this pathing look good or too much?
anyone got tips on how to decorate this fountain area?
Can anyone help my with terraforming? I wanna make a residential area but I don't know how
https://turnip.exchange/island/f61650dd if anyone wants to visit an island for inspo or just to chill. (this is an old map but its similar)
Plant market. Decent? I wish it was better but don’t have any inspiration to do much else with this amount of space.
This is my little restaurant right now, it's not much..
does anyone have any japanese inspired residential areas i can use for inspo? ^^
my arcade/ diner area is finally done! it took so long finding all the machiness 
to those who’s river mouths are at F2 and F6, could you show me how your map looks like please? trying to think of ideas on where to place everything 🥺
How do you take videos on ac?? Only know how to take pics
@distant nimbus this is dope

ic
Guys I just got Judy and I’m gonna make a good exterior for her do y’all have any idea what I should put?
I wanna give my campsite an isolated-ish vibe, does this look like an ok place to put it?
does anyone wanna help me design my island? i need help lol
@viscid mango i have judy's house beside a pastel carnival area
@summer fjord holding the button will record the last 30 seconds of gameplay. You’ll see it in ur switch gallery. To get that to ur phone u can post it directly to twitter from ur switch and save it
Anyone else feels like their map looks really boring, like I really like how my island looks when strolling around but on the map it’s just not as spicy yknow
Midlife are you looking for someone to visit and look around? That'd be fun and I love decorating ideas!
anyone have some cool dig sites???
Thank you!
I wish we had more custom designs I’m almost out of slots
@brittle crescent gotcha thank you!
anyone have any entrance inspo for islands where the airport is close to/off center from resident services?
where do you guys suggest to place a mini village for your villagers? what part of the map? 🙂
I made my small village near the resident services. Though it's mostly surrounded by bodies of water with a small bridge of land acting like wooden plank bridges.
I could show an example rn.
@fringe heron oh yes please! hehe thank you so much
@fringe heron that sounds so cuteee please show uss
Just a moment, taking screenshots!
@woven drift my residence is to the left and 7 steps away, so I made a detour that makes someone travel to the right, and then into res if that makes sense
What should I put here? Not a cafe or a band area
Anyone wanna help me with my rock garden? I can’t find where my last rock spawned. (Reward offered.) DM me.
@wise heron Porta potty‘s
Yasssss
library, pizza stalls, popcorn stands or cotton candy, plant garden @wise heron
@cedar pike I love it😍
oo ty thats a good idea
bike rental rack or even scooters, maybe climbing walls too.
np!! ty guys
I need simple panels tho for a porta potty
My magic rose forest and my museum are done 😄
arent there porta potties in game or am i thinking of something else?
It’s a bidet I think
@lone flint @gleaming hare

Anybody got fancy outdoor restaurant inspiration?
Hi ^^ I really need help and ideas for my museum area ;^; It's the only part of my island that I have no ideas for and have barely done anything on.
how do y’all get your terraforming to look natural because i’m STRUGGLING 😭 any tips are appreciated!!
@kindred gorge When in doubt add flowers.
^
a lot of curves and rounded edges!! no symmetry @kindred gorge
thank you guys! i’m mostly struggling with getting the edges of cliffs to look not so rough and blocky
go nuts, make sure waterfalls have a source and pond/river to pour into
If i am putting a neighbourhood down the bottom right hand side how would i do it pls help dm me
some of my waterfalls dont have anything 😂
Still looks pretty regardless!
hehe thanks, it used to be just a flat spot so , slowly getting better
the most important thing is that they have a place to pour into, which you do have!!
oh that’s so pretty!! i’m trying to go for a fairycore kind of aesthetic so i’ll definitely be adding plenty of lil rivers and waterfalls
@knotty meteor I Iike to put garden lanterns and shrubs up there.
i also have this lil waterfall with no source, but where it ends up is important for a natural look
Underground rivers are a thing.
My Cat-Walk for Fashion Shows 🤩
if anyone missed it.. i worked on this last night - inspo from cloudy
idk if this is possible since the bridges are close to each other, but here's entrance inspo for anyone whose entrance is like mine
im probably not going to do this because im looking for something more urban
All these shooting star pictures lately are goals. 😍
my area for fashion shows 🥳
rip cloudy - gone but never forgotten
woah
@frosty spruce amazing
rip... 😭 @manic lantern
What does everyone think of my rose forest 🙂
my favorite thing to do when detailing is to square buildings/flower patches with one-block wide rivers
@vital veldt bravo!
Dm me ideas just got terraforming and not a clue what to do
Thank you 🙂 I couldn’t figure out a good color scheme at first
@vital veldt I get wonderland vibes
Hey I need to inspiration for my star gazing area... my island looks like this so I’d love some help designing it! I can pay 10 nmt to help me
https://twitter.com/033miimii/status/1265802397122609152?s=21
I keep nitpicking this area, what am. I doing wronnng
That was my end goal with the mushrooms @austere heath 🍄
hedges are your best friend
How do u het hedges?
uhhh i forget but they're a type of fence
Ok thanks
Nook miles store, right? Can't remember...
probably
Earth day
Have all of yous got good islands
That is very subjective. What is "good"?
Like terraforming everywhere
I am trying to create a magical island but I don’t know what to put for my entrance! The airport doesn’t line up! Any advice??
That is very subjective. What is "good"?
@austere heath
Porportionate, but its not always up to ourselves
5 stars took me 400+ hours and I’m okay at terraforming
Cause i just got it and i have no clue for any ideas
Any ideas? i really need a instrumental music in the beach with cafe??? pretty please. send me a pict
i’ve had the game since release and am just now starting to terraform lmao, my island looks exactly like a starter island atm
Stars are useless.
Its a cool achievement but it doesnt reflect your island at all.
See this is my island but i dont know where to start
What is good to one may be trash to another. I think if you put your heart into it, then that's good enough.
I’m stuck what should I do for my entrance if it’s so close to resident services
https://twitter.com/033miimii/status/1265802397122609152?s=21
I keep nitpicking this part so bad, does it look okay?
@last ferry thats the same with me
@last ferry make a path ways straight to resident service with hedges.
@woven drift I wish we could Move It 😭
@last ferry i know i will dm u what i done
There are roughly 500 hours between those pictures, not only the kimono stayed with me 😊
@last ferry if you're going for an island theme, you can plant coconut trees instead of hedges as a path liner. I'm not a fan of straight lines, so I would have the path curve around a water feature or something. But, you do you.
Does anyone have any cute shop areas that I could look at for inspiration? I kinda made a giant town center by just combining my Able Sisters, Nooks Cranny, Residents Center, and Museum all in one area
I’m trying to create a magical island but don’t know how to do the entrance! I have no clue what to put, any advice ??
@warm vigil#https://twitter.com/033miimii/status/1265802397122609152?s=21
Pretty much my entrance
Does anyone have ideas for what to do with alot of black flowers? I have so many in an effort to make a witchy feeling island, but I found pansies and pines really did it for me 🤡😞
Hi guys! I was hoping to get some advice on this area. It’s to the side of my fruit orchard and I just decided to throw some mush items around it. Does it look bad? Does anyone see it being anything better? 🙂
Ain’t much but I think it looks nice
@willow gate I am using them in a villager garden for Tasha ✌️
Heres an update on my lookout, anything else I should add??
@torn wagon aaa cute,,, ty qwq
hey!! im looking for beach inspiration, anyone wanna help me? im adding rattan chairs and tables to make a hotel inspired resort thingi lol
@granite forge you should add plants to make it look more alive
@warm vigil try a sideways entrance and it can loop over to RS
@woven drift noted
@granite forge :)
Heres some beach inspo for u
Need waterfall entrance ideas plx
@heavy summit rip gulliver
So I'm looking for people to come give honest, DETAILED feedback on my mostly natural 5 star island. (What you like and dislike, both.) You wont hurt my feelings. I'll pay you, msg to work something out.
Just gonna drop this here if anyone wants inspo from my island
So you know, I'm a villain, I'm trying to make an evil island, but I don't think I'm about that life anymore after seeing this amazing place.

anybody have some nice looking diagonal bridge path connections?
Any thoughts?
anyone know what i shld put on this empty stall
Any critiques? I just got my switch today, but this is where I intend to go with my island!
@radiant root u cant move the town hall from the ground it goes on
Oof u picked a hard map
I’m grouping villager houses in groups of 2 or 3. How many spaces should I put in between them for plants, furniture, etc - 2 spaces or 3 spaces?
So I’m making a personalized place for each of my villager but I have NO IDEA to do for Coco. Does anyone have an idea?
@quiet haven some gyr- oh...
If only gyroid existed in the game 😩
Here’s some inspo! Rlly liked the idea!
I knoww ):
@radiant root u cant move the town hall from the ground it goes on
@tawdry sierra Yep that's where my resident hall is naturally, its also not on a cliff
@quiet haven I just gave Coco a cute little bamboo forest to live in right next to the beach
She’s a goth type of gal
I need villager garden ideas
Sizes
Styles (generic or NPC suited?)
Fences
Layout
@radiant root if you just started today, I might look into restarting your island. Having RS so close to the airport has caused a lot headache for a lot of people
@tawdry sierra Yep that's where my resident hall is naturally, its also not on a cliff
@radiant root ah ok well i love the idea!
@river cypress I love that flooring around the house - do you have a code for it?
Campsite area ft lolly
Should I add something? I feel it a little empty bellow the campsite and the table
Maybe just for the memes do a coco painting next to her house like the cover of the Disney movie
How many spaces should I put between villager houses, 2 or 3?
@river cypress I love that flooring around the house - do you have a code for it?
@long bridge no 😔
Why can’t they just let us move a house like a cm away if we want to like what?
@woven drift maybe try putting some flowers and weeds around to make it more 'foresty'
@thin tartan def 3. That way you can put something in the middle... like a tree or idk
Don’t think This will make sense to anyone , just a picture of what I want to achieve
My island rn
Hello welcome to my happy place 🤣
instead of using a white board try using those island designer apps online they’ll make things easier to map out
Question, do you guys think I should add more hills around the entrance or closer to the plaza?
what should i put on this small area? it’s right next to my airport entrance
@radiant root if you just started today, I might look into restarting your island. Having RS so close to the airport has caused a lot headache for a lot of people
@woven drift That's a good point, sadly I got a prized villager so I'm worried about resetting again. I'll have to look into other people's close RS for inspiration. Thanks for pointing that out!

@median salmon can I actually plan buildings and items too ?
I’m currently making a little forest picnic area for Fauna right in the north-western part of my island.
I want to make it so the area of land her house is on connects to the path to it, but I also wanted a river to flow by and connect to a couple of waterfalls I built. Not to mention, to have it connect to the secret beach
I’m considering putting two bridges here and I just wanted to get some opinions and suggestions
do you guys have any ideas of what i can add to judys lawn?
Is there a way you can set signs? (I'm trying to mark my forest)
yes, signs are a diy
anyone have any entrance ideas? i have restarted my entrance so many times, and i just want something that will stay
@median salmon can I actually plan buildings and items too ?
@low stag well you can place down where u would want your villagers and shops to go and edit where u would want to make mountains etc and u can just add those things (items) yourself, i didn’t use one i’m just doing everything as i think of it
@fierce flax Thanks!
@proper kelp you can customise most crafted signs using the customisation feature by a DIY table
@torn geode I must appear so stupid, but how do you access that?
I need nooks cranny and able sisters area inspo
@pure nimbus saaaaame
@proper kelp has Tom Nook given you a tutorial on customising items yet?
He offered me a workshop a while ago, that must be it
ideas for that tbd section on the beach? (bottom right ish)
Please, I need help with laying out my entrance! Residenr services is so close to the airport ): can't do much
He offered me a workshop a while ago, that must be it
@proper kelp
Yeah, once you do that, you should be able to customise freely
@light breach whats your map like?
@torn geode @fierce flax Thank you guys so much!
Please, I need help with laying out my entrance! Residenr services is so close to the airport ): can't do much
@light breach this is mine, it’s about 10 spaces in front but more to the left 🙂
entrance ideas anyone?
@median salmon oh thats lovely
thank you!
@light breach if it makes you feel any better this is my RS
Finally got 5 stars today!
Lf cute ideas for nooks cranny and able sisters!
Here is my map @fierce flax
@sharp hull That is super sad (No offense)
@light breach if it makes you feel any better this is my RS
@sharp hull and i thought mine was close!!
Honestly I’m okay with it, I don’t mind the simple entrance
@median salmon this is mine, as you can see RS is super close too
it looks very good tho!! @sharp hull
Dang, I had no idea I was actually pretty fortunate with my resident services
Tysm! I don’t mind not being able to make a flashy entrance as long as what I have looks nice
Lf cute ideas for nooks cranny and able sisters!
@gentle bear
have yall ever seen like. a massive crescent moon lake? im trying to figure out how to make one but every time i look it up i just get the tiny ones
i wish we could do more in the plaza area of resident services
@median salmon this is mine, as you can see RS is super close too
@cloud surge wow that’s is super nice!!
https://twitter.com/Beartasticpants/status/1265821233922207744?s=20 This is mine, it's also really close on the right of my airport. I been trying to figure it out for days and I think I finally got s omewhere, just need to decorate it. I just did like mirror cliffs and I got a zen bridge being built
@kindred gorge My theme really would do with an item placed at the plaza but i can't, so I'm on yer side
This is my entrance, the stairs go up to an area overlooking the town hall
Can you guys show off your maps 🥺👉👈 I’m stuck and need ideas
Built this area in front of my shop
Also I should ask, what colors should I do at my entrance I posted?? It's japanese/forest themed isle
@regal echo wow i love that idea tbh. i alr have an entrance but since i have a huge designs surrounding my rs i might change it up to something similar
ive begun sectioning off my island, any suggestions for all this space?
This is my entrance, the stairs go up to an area overlooking the town hall
@regal echo looks great!
I need nooks cranny and able sisters areas
@burnt sparrow Is that the umbrellas? I might have to steal that idea for my front xD
have yall ever seen like. a massive crescent moon lake? im trying to figure out how to make one but every time i look it up i just get the tiny ones
@robust mist I found this one which I think looks super pretty, not sure if it's what you're looking for though
@burnt sparrow Is that the umbrellas? I might have to steal that idea for my front xD
@vivid oasis Yes they are! Glad you like it
@astral trail this is mine ! it's not yet done though
Also I know someone posted their map where they did a crescent shaped lake
oh @robust mist i guess mine fits with that as well
Okay now I am kinda jealous of people who have more than 5 tiles between their RS and airport
Mines halfway done, looks kinda basic imo
@small patrol I think your top layer to the left would be a cute flower field to propagate, and you can put your resident houses in a cute town by RS. I also like to add a lot of waterfalls and second layers sporadically to put orchards and my rock garden. hope this helps!
@sharp hull I didn't know when I picked my map either, and I didnt think I would get so heavily into ACNH, so I hate it now xD
@sharp hull i wish you could have multiple islands because i'd so want to try it out tbh. it seems like a fun challenge. my rs is small cuz of my design but if i rlly wanted to i could just go bigger
This is my layout, as you can see I barely ever terraform
does anyone have any ideas for judys lawn? or should i keep it as is
Just needs purple and blue hyacinths @desert kite
@regal echo that's not basic that's pretty </3
Wait, how do you have the small nova lights? Are those the items themselves?
oooo omg i should add that tmxsm
This is my map, it's still being worked on!
anyone have maps for natural islands?
@sharp hull Star clock turned backward
This is my island layout and i flattened everything and i regret it so much 😭
i saw it on tik tok they rnt nova lights its the star clock flipped over it looks rlly cute and takes up less star frags
My museum entrance
Wrong tag I’m a buffoon
This is my island layout and i flattened everything and i regret it so much 😭
@vital field im jealous of ur star omg </3 i think u should round out ur cliffs a bit more and put more dimension
@vital field that’s really cute!! You can just add random cliff in empty plots and make that 2nd tier less squareish
@cloud surge ooh thank you! those are great ideas!
really random but if anyone has a harry potter island i need to see it
@desert kite @zealous pendant !
Also got myself trapped earlier. It dawned on me the very moment I confirmed to build the incline there 😂😅
OMG IS HER ISLAND HARRY POTTER?? sorry abt all caps im excited
yes ! search for her and then her images
@desert kite lol yea :p I do have a HP themed island that I’m working on . This is diagon alley
Bacon is the GOAT
Do you guys know the bamboo dimensions? Is it just 1 square around like other trees? I'm gonna die trying to plant my bamboo 
@scenic blaze the pig*
bearpants yes
@desert kite lol yea :p I do have a HP themed island that I’m working on . This is diagon alley
@zealous pendant when ur done please please please let me visit </3
About to flatten my island. If anyone has any maps of this island, that'd be cool! Ideally looking to do cute housing village for my villagers
@quasi adder we have the same rivers exits
Oh nice! 😄
What theme are you going for?
I need nooks and able sisters inspo
I'm not sure at the moment! I'm not very creative 
@brittle isle if I’m ever DONE lol
this chat is so bland where is everyone
@quasi adder hhh there's a lot of inspo going around here so i guess stick around for a bit or look back at images ppl shared ?
my map currently since i’m moving my residence houses to the top left corner :)) it’s not the most appealing lol
@brittle isle gotcha! will do ty!
big project
I need some big brains for this one! I flattened my island and I need someone to help me design a lay out !! I will pay you bells !! I’ll send you inspiration and ideas I have and you’ll create me a basic island layout based of what ideas I have !! Hmu if interested! Please !
@brittle isle if I’m ever DONE lol
@zealous pendant felt that omg i'm so indecisive </3
does anyone know how big the island is? like dimensions
i want to plan my map out on paper but i don’t know how big to make it
I was wondering if I can see layouts of what y’all did with your museums? I need some inspiration😅
or does anyone what the dimensions of one square are
@brittle isle I’m trying to decorate 6 houses 😂😂😂
each acre is 16x16 i beleive,someone else confirm
@balmy jetty How long did it take you to flatten it? I was thinking about getting rid of the cliffs too...
Does anyone have the outside of Bobs house decorated? His house colours are chaotic af, I’m struggling 🥺
My museum is boring lol
I’m taking a break today-
Tryna decide.. I just reset the island but I honestly don’t know what theme I’m going for. What are some good ones?
@zealous pendant the dedication you have </3
when you reset your island.. what happens
@balmy jetty How long did it take you to flatten it? I was thinking about getting rid of the cliffs too...
@woven drift
I didn’t have much! So maybe like two days max
Tryna decide.. I just reset the island but I honestly don’t know what theme I’m going for. What are some good ones?
@woven drift it all depends on what u like tbh. some ppl are more into natural and foresty islands while others like urban and symmetrical ones
@patent sky not boring attt alll and you know this ❤️. Simplicity is best
@soft plaza is each acre like one of those squares
@woven drift
I didn’t have much! So maybe like two days max
@balmy jetty Oh ok... I have a TON of trees on the top level- started making an orchard, but I think I am going to move them all and flatten it
@patent sky where’s the other museum tho that ones amazing
@untold lynx not much tbh you delete your save data and then you get the tommy and timmy thing again
@scenic blaze oh you're right idk what to put here 
my island consists of a lot of pink and white and my island is kind of natural what theme is that called??
We Stan a design queen
Yasss Lulu
What are you guys doing with your beach areas? Everything on land I like, but my beaches are baren.
@median salmon i guess just natural with a pink and white colour scheme ? ^^
@humble echo YOU NEVER MESSAGED TO GET YOUR TREEEE
@zealous pendant lol it's okay it appeared in my shop the next day which was CRAZYY
The nooklings knows everything 😂
Heya! Does anyone have these same River exits/RS and willing to share your map for inspo? ❤️ wanting to redo a bunch of my island lmao SO OVER IT
@ruby forge I think we have the same map!!
How’s my island entrance look so far
Okay so I extended my entrance
can someone show me what this looks like when it's placed down
Here’s thr first part
need ideas for outdoor spa / hotel spa ... can anyone DM me your design 🥰
@woven drift oooo are the smaller stars, star clocks that are turned around?
Yeah
So I'm reworking a few things. However each of my villagers have a yard and each yard kind of matches what is in their house.. I've got Yuka to do and im at a lose of what to do for her because her style inside is the Antique..
nice very nice
Anyone have an island with lots of alleyways and high elevation pathways I can see?
has anyone by the way made an island that's situated in a meteorite crater ? if i ever do reset that's what i might do tbh
can someone show me what this looks like when it's placed down
@rapid fog
That sunset, tho
@deep dove not entirely sure what ya mean, I do have lots of mountains tho lol
@brittle isle I saw a video of someone’s island like it was on the moon lol
woah meteorite crater sounds really cool
Hi!! I have this skinny long strip on my second level and I have NO idea what to do with it. Any suggestions are welcome, the pathway in first picture leads to redder boat
a lil gardening area would be cute!
This is my map layout from yesterday, I’ve changed it since then but I’m too lazy to take another pic
any feedback on my entrance?
@hidden kindle wow! thank you, also that layout

@zealous pendant ;0 sounds cooll. @rapid fog ive been thinking about it a lot but i also put in so much work in my current layout sjhj. i think it would look so great with all the star items and pretend it has weird sideeffects for example the glowing mush lamps
If anyone would like to visit my 5 star island woodsy / historic village theme.
Still a Work in progress- currently collecting statues + neutral items
DM for Dodo
@humble echo I guess I mean a more city like setting that's got lots of narrow paths
Gonna take out these two stairs bc I need my inclines ;w;
me scrolling thru this chat with my three star island like 👁👄👁
Ohhh ok
Who mentioned me
What things in an island that cause lag, and how can I reduce it? I have a laggy zone in my map that doesn't seem as decorated as other zones with no lag. :<
hey anyone know or have the rest of this persons entrance? I wanna see the rest of it
what do you guys think? my island is natural-like style!
I think I have 4 stars, Because of all my Flowers. Isabelle made me plant like a million flowers
@brittle isle hmmmm i think you could do a small spot in a place you did the least work in, or maybe take a video of your island and enjoy everything then tear it down

And because I like flowers :>
should i put my villager’s houses up on a hill? im considering it
@zealous pendant ok thanks even if I don’t know why
Sorry if I interrupt but does anyone have some suggestions/list of what I should put here in this big spot? Curious to know your suggestions!
(Already made a tulip/flower shop, diner, park and orchard so I can't do those anymore.)
café!
@exotic timber I’m putting mine up on a hill, It looks good with waterfalls 🙂
A Fossil Exhibit?
@exotic timber I did some on a hill and some on the ground. I love the depth/variation it gives the little neighborhood
@brittle isle hmmmm i think you could do a small spot in a place you did the least work in, or maybe take a video of your island and enjoy everything then tear it down
![]()
@rapid fog hhh yup. or i might just combine the two and act like my sun and moon designs are ritual/mystical things like the statues of easter island
Art or pottery class!
Ok
1-10 how is this looking?
If anyone would like to visit my 5 star island woodsy / historic village theme.
Still a Work in progress- currently collecting statues + neutral items
DM for Dodo
if you like the island peep my IG @"crossingpatch"
Thank you for the suggestions. 😄
@woven drift 8.5
ahaha back to the happy island designer someone stop me </333333
wow!! i bet it'll look great! :'D
I need more Lilly’s of the Valley, but don’t want to buy them. Is it worth it to pick up all the diy’s on the floor of my island to get back to 5 stars?
what do i do behind my plaza?
you could put the diys in your bathroom lolo or sell them to nook or people
So i am restarting my land. I mean that im putting everything almost away. Need tips and suggestions on my entrance and ideas on how to make it. I sorta want cottage core vibes and i know there are sooo many talented people here so please send pictures for inspiration
I mean, You can put them in stoarge then put it back after you have enough? @silent storm
what do i do behind my plaza?
@dry warren I have a river and few rows of trees & love how it looks behind it 🙂

@woven drift you cant put diy in storage lol
@ruby forge that could work, ty for the tip :0
Oh, You can’t?
I broke like 8 shovels digging up my tt flowers that were all over my paths
oMg same!!! I kept breaking them because of making them go all over the island and re arranging them, And I just keep buying more.
I’ve broken like 6 shovels digging up my tt flowers that were all over my paths
@calm granite if you make a path that is mostly transparent, you should place it on your paths so then don’t get over grown
i terraformed for two hours yesterday and im just now realizing i wanna go a completely different route with my island
Finally. I’m gonna pee on myself 😍
🥳🥳🥳
My phone is dying quikly, wait nvm. Its been 2 hours
@vestal zenith oh I reached 5 stars today too
Congrats 🎊 it’s the best feeling
i terraformed for two hours yesterday and im just now realizing i wanna go a completely different route with my island
@exotic timber I’ve been terraforming 2+ hours a day for 2 months and still don’t know what to do with half of my island. 🤷♂️
I got 5 stars in 30 days, not tt
Adjjyy hi uhff as if
im so bad at making rivers curvy!! they always look so awk 
Rivers are really hard. My advice is to look up real river shapes. My geology classes from college legit helped me with them lmao. To get good river shapes you really have to do long portions at a time. You can’t change like 10 spaces and make it look right. You need to do a long stretch of river.
I just go wild 🙂 Or make heart rivers
does anyone have those designs that make it look like a deck pls i need it
how much space does each house take up?
@calm granite if you make a path that is mostly transparent, you should place it on your paths so then don’t get over grown
@silent storm that’s what I’ve spent my day doing
can anyone help me designing an island?
@woven drift
how much space does each house take up?
@exotic timber 4x3, but technically 4x> does anyone have those designs that make it look like a deck pls i need it
@woven drift
I think real looking river formations like oxbow lakes are a really under explored element of decorating natural islands actually. I think real looking rivers is super under explored in islands that aren’t symmetrical/ urban /pristine
@drifting lake ahh this is bringing me back to 8th grade earth science
that’s pretty helpful!! all my rivers r currently straight so i need to edit
Who else’s island is just no theme at all, and whatever you thin pk looks nice
Hahaha. Harness your earth science knowledge for the ultimate foresty island!
^^^
i only just unlocked terraforming so i have a lot of work to do,,
Shells don’t effect my rating, right?
Shells don’t effect my rating, right?
@silent storm if you don’t touch them I think. I have like 40 shells on the beach that I have never touched and I have a 5nstar
kinda funny bcs i walked in, picked the island i chose out of a hat, and now im just going with what looks nice/what makes me happy. sometimes i feel like people go in to deep in these games? not judging anyone who likes to style their islands or perfect everything, my brother is like that and he gets mad whenever i change somethin heh, but for me animal crossing is abt logging in every day, talking to your villagers and judt vibin
Ahh okay. Still picking diy and watering cans off the ground
Lol
just* hhh
I have 7 bridges on my island
I NEED HELP MAKING A DECISION!! should i put my villager homes on the same “island” as resident services or put them across the river
@drifting lake i tried to use all my knowledge of rivers i learnt in geography to make my river look natural but i'm still not entirely sure if it looks realistic enough </3
can you put “ this symbol on an island name?
@exotic timber the same island
Do you guys think mush lamps look better against hardwood trees or cedar trees?
Cedar
cedar!
I need nooks and able sisters inspo
Cedar
I think the right choice is very clear now thanks!!!
Does anybody have any entrance inspo? I’m changing mine around to have a little fountain bench area in front of my residents services and I need help 🥺
If anyone needs so,e able nook inspo HMU
@wooden patrol woah same
@pure nimbus Woah
@wooden patrol here are two different kinds I had/have
Anybody need shop inspiration
@calm granite yes please show us the inspo!!
STUNNING
This was my entrance a few days ago
idk if this is a good photo since its a lil cut off,, theres usually a fountain where im standing but i took it out since it was a hassle for trades, to the left is a lil touristy park and to the right is the campsite
im not creative enough for this game man
I spent too much time setting this up lol
Same @exotic timber I thought I was creative and then suddenly I just can't think of island ideas when I get the game :C
Villager home & garden layouts
Screenshots pleeease 
My pockets are full don’t mind the clutter on floor. Sry for blurry
I'm kinda regretting where I put everything I have so far because I pretty much only have awkward spaces left
Oh hey chonkerino
hey
I have all these extra hedges. Should I sell them or trash them. I don’t really have anywhere to put them
just keep them in storage
How many and what price?
How much would someone charge for an island design? I made the mistake of checking out folks on twitter and stuff and tore down a huge chunk of my island.... long story short im not a creative person and I dont want to start the game over 😅
My VERY VERY VERY VERY rough plan
It looks very very confusing but I understand it enough
HEY GUYSS looking for inspo on what/how to build around ur plaza
I like the villager houses
anyone with nice almost complete islands wanna come check out each others and get inspiration?
is there anyway to plan an island layout on a website or something? before terraforming and all that
Mine has paths and trees and flowers around it @spring matrix 
@exotic timber There is. let me try to find it for you
https://eugeneration.github.io/HappyIslandDesigner/ @exotic timber
store layout ideas?
THANK U
How’s this look so far
How’s this look so far
@last ferry I love it! It has that tropical hotel entrance vibe
@sudden spear Thanks I hate how my entrance is so close to my resident services
If anyone has a forest/wood themed island and would kindly give me some inspiration that would be so nice!! i’m currently stuck :((
Been working on a new area ^^
Anyone wanna come visit my island? I’m down with my first round edits in a way I’m happy with 🥰 dm me
I'd love to! got a code?
Is anyone wants inspiration check out my video: or u can visit lol
So you know, I'm a villain, I'm trying to make an evil island, but I don't think I'm about that life anymore after seeing this amazing place.

@humble echo your island is iconic and so are you 🙌
@hidden kindle YOU'RE iconic!
my rivers are a mess and idk how to fix them. without messing up the work i’ve done. i like individual part of my island but i feel like ur doesn’t flow together.
my museum is moving to the empty field
Lily’s area any ideas on what to add??
my rivers are a mess and idk how to fix them. without messing up the work i’ve done. i like individual part of my island but i feel like ur doesn’t flow together.
@little quest I honestly really like it! it works together
@cedar acorn a frog model
@exotic timber all I did was go at it, if u want it natural don't plan it out
my campsite! i don’t know why the video came out blurry :((
@vernal widget how do I get one?
Can somebody send me his/hers Island Layout? I'm searching for some inspirations bc I'm to uncreative :/
@cedar acorn you have to catch 3 frogs and give them to flick
@median salmon i love it!! it’s so cute
Ik I might sound stupid but do you buy that big campsite sign at nooks or something cuz I feel like everyone has one but I don’t
@cedar acorn you have to catch 3 frogs and give them to flick
@vernal widget I think you give them to cj not flick
@median salmon i love it!! it’s so cute
@kindred gorge thank you!!
Oops did I say flick
Dose anyone have like a cool little hill with waterfalls with the moon on top of it for inspiration
Ik I might sound stupid but do you buy that big campsite sign at nooks or something cuz I feel like everyone has one but I don’t
@gentle bear you get it through a code from pocket camp and it’ll show up in your nook stop i don’t know how to explain it
Can you explain?
@steady brook I used to, didn't fit my theme though.
I’m working on redoing my island and I’m finished with the bit by the airport. This is what it looks like any feedback on how I could make it better?
@upper pine
@pine musk Tysm
it’s best if you want a video, try searching up “how to get pocket camp items in animal crossing new horizons” if u still have trouble i can let you catalog it for free :)) @gentle bear
wait i don’t think u can catalog it
Ok thank you!
there is NO reason for the entrance of ur island not to line up with resident services,, NO REASON AT ALL!!!!
@exotic timber oh there’s a reason...
It’s to piss people off
finished my little secret cove any ideas on furniture i should place in it?
I ask this every day but like, what should i do with this part of my island? It’s currently a natural/zen theme
Yay back to 5🌟. Yass
@spiral valley honestly looks cool as it is. But I think you should add purple and blue flowers instead of furnature:)
Hi!! I have this weird strip of land on my second level and have NO idea what to do with it. Any ideas are totally welcome!!
Does anyone have any nice neighborhood area for the villagers. Like how did you place your villagers homes in your island? I’m trying to make a community area but not sure if I should place it at the back of my island or near the entrance. Help 😦
@spiral valley maybe some nova lights?
ooo good idea
hey i'm watering flowers & picking weeds! DM me for prices i'm looking for bells
Sandy's treedome be lookin kinda blocky rn but it's coming along
@spiral valley and maybe some crescent moon chairs as well
@young hull I put min in a row at the front of my island
I pick each villager spot individually so they're each prime real estate, mine and my starters all face the south beach, three of my snooty/shy girls under a big wide cliff in the orchard,
i like the idea i just need to get the recipe 😬
Should I put anything else outside June's house? Also, should I give her a shell wreath to put on her door, or would that look weird because of the windows on the door?
@vast cradle omg the clothesline as a net is so smart imma steal that...
@vernal widget Go for it! It took me forever to figure out something that would work
It feels a little empty in my opinion
Does anyone have like a neighborhood on the water design I could look at for inspo? :))
maybe some of the benches as like an audience
a sports uniform on a mannequin as a referee?
what do you guys usually put behind your levels? i feel like they block a lot of the view so i'm stuck
How does my restaurant look like? c: I still need some food to go on the counter top table tho :c
What should I add to or terraform into my front yard? I have a lot of room to work with! Looking for front yard inspiration too!
i need design tips lmao
i'm using paths to connect houses, shops, bridges, airport, etc all together. I'm making the path 2 tiles wide, but house entrance's are odd in tile number so my path looks weird. Anyone has path placement inspo I could check?
I am pretty much done my outdoor bakery!!! just need the flowers to grow c:
i made a compact neighborhood that i honestly love but i don’t really know where to put the rest of the houses, does anyone have any ideas?
@round compass The bright red of the floor is kind of jarring against he dark gray rock, imo
@wheat torrent couldn’t you just expand the two levels to fit all of the houses?
What would look good right here...
Outdoor library ideas? I just decided to create a lil one in my town and I'd love to see other ideas!!
anyone have tips on how to make a japanese rock garden ?
Wishing you all magical dreams and anxiety-free sleep tonight! ♡ 🌌
E hi, Its me Dan Again. back to Go Crazy
anybody got zen garden ideas
@woven drift
This time, not about high school musical
Does the campsite entrance look good? c:
@woven drift
Front yard inspo?
@steady brook I kinda like putting a random trinket that matches the villager's personality there... like a gnome, decoy duck, butter churn.... just random items that give me a giggle.
Ye that’s what I did for the rest of em @austere heath. But I want it to be unique
anybody got zen garden ideas
@abstract magnet this is the start to my zen garden!
@south spear two wide path with one wide house walkway
mmh yea thanks! I feel like the fencing makes it better too
@humble echo Absolutely love this one! Definetely a vibe
@vast cradle I love the table and the table lamp!
does anyone have any cool graveyards? need inspo:))
Also what should I put right here....
There were some cool posts on reddit a long time ago about flower arrangement ideas/color and flower combos. Does anyone have anything like that? I have so many different flower patches and I know I could do better on a few of them. Just looking for some inspiration.
@steady brook maybe a little wooden sign with a picture of the villager who lives there?
@dapper mural I’m not good at that sort of stuff but thanks u have me an idea
I got a higher quality image of my cursed resident services
I HAVE THE SAME CURSE
I didn’t even mind until I saw what other people got and realized how unlucky I was
Bruh rip your resident service
Honestly I can still deal with it, I like my island otherwise, but I hope nobody visiting finds it annoying
Do you think people get bothered by that stuff
@sharp hull it’d probably look better if u used a natural custom design path so it’s not as obvious, like stones
I try to just use the default paths, I like how they have custom sounds
Anybody got inspo for a moon garden with Celeste diys? And like moon stufff?
Still in construction but one of my favorite spots 🖤
idk what to do for my entrance
I mean @woven drift mines a jungle
can u show me
& Bangle posing in my entrance
Absolutely tomorrow but I was gonna go to bed.
The horse race is so cute! You should add a ticket booth to it!
They are there in the bottom
That's perfect! I love it!
That’s genius and adorable
Thanks I came up with it after seeing somebody else doing this concept
Just replaced like half of my custom designs
any woodsy/magical forests? need inspo
What should i do here and here
Working on getting my cats, Raymond, Katt, Tangy, into their new plots. Should I put a decoration or flowers in each plot?
Can I get some inspiration on how you guys decorate the exterior of your villager’s houses?
designed this space for pashmina and maple, i’d appreciate any feedback/criticism to enhance it! also rip that atlas moth 😖
DM ME ON WHAT I SHOULD DO HERE AND HERE
Does anyone have a fountain/ plaza entrance?
how is my natural looking stargazing area looking?
@pure nimbus
This is mine
@rare rock
Thats Pekoe’s ! I just decorate them depending on their styles
Hey does anyone have any ideas for a stargazing area that would fit with the theme of my island? Here’s a pic of the aesthetic for reference
@long hill Ohhh, that reminds me that I should add a Gong outside Gladys’ house
@cloud bane this is extremely unique, my favorite for sure on how to use the Robot Hero’s and Monsters. Upload it on reddit or send it to some IG accounts, people will love it
I just finished designing all of their yards except one
can i build a cliff right on the edge of a river or will it not let me?
each of the acres are 32 x 32, right? or is it 16 x 16? (as in 32 or 16 design squares)
16x16
@vernal widget oof I would put fencing around that tree or bushes like I did. One ladder and someone messes that tree up
Awesome, ty. Trying to finally do my town layout 😩
@steady brook a garden gnome 🙂
any feedback on my natural looking stargazing deck?
@vernal widget oof I would put fencing around that tree or bushes like I did. One ladder and someone messes that tree up
@woeful trout that picture is out dated I put fencing around it :3
brown or white bench?
@dapper flare I like the white
@vernal widget good good lol @rare rock these are just two of my villagers, Raymond who’s a fashion designer as his profession and sprocket who’s a guitarist by profession
here's my mock-up of just a drawn-over screenie. 🤔 the big open area by the museum might be an orchard, with that artificial lake area in the top left being my stargazing spot with some future ramps that i haven't worked out. Any thoughts, criticism? Idkkk just vibe check my idea haha
Raymond’s outfits he designed are actually all of my villagers in order of where they live in the neighborhood. Don’t mind the red in sprockets area. It’s just my “no weeds” custom design, I change it to transparent when people are over
I kinda like the lore you have for them. As far as island lore goes for me, I'm doing a custom-design stall that has the fortune teller table decoration thing for Katrina and others for other non-included (so far) NPCs and then the diner next to resident services. 🤣 otherwise, my lore is so minimal
Nice nice, all my villagers are in charge of something based on who they are, like sprocket is in charge of the club because he’s a musician @pine spruce
I gave all my villagers descriptions of their personalities, interests, and relationships lol
@bitter inlet you know they already have descriptions of stuff like that? Lol besides relationships
yeah I based it off what some of their canon aspirations/hobbies were, aspects of their in-game personality and who I feel they would get along with in certain ways
We should totally have an "island lore" channel because now I'm kinda curious about everyone's like headcanons and lore for their islands and stuff 😳 anyways, I love that club area!! I was thinking of doing an open-air sort of arcade personally but open-air club?? Nice.
Tale of two aesthetics 🤣
any feedback on my natural looking stargazing area?
Does this bar next to ables look weird?
Leaf island update. Gotta curve that one line more but my house is in the way 🙃
@fringe thicket a little?
does this walkway to resident services look weird?
@fringe thicket I would do a stall with clothing or something, food doesn’t really go with a clothing shop, just my opinion though
although its simple im happy how this is turning out
@kind grove decide if it does after you put some trees behind and in front of it, some flowers, I’d also change the hedges to bushes
LF beach and carnival ideas. I’m debating on adding one
Curvey paths for me are making it hard to plan areas
LF Like a shopping main plaza idea.
It’s not super original but I love this movie so I had to! Any other little pieces that would fit well here? I feel like it needs more things... and stuff.
Oh my gooooood. I honestly don't know why I didn't do an Alice in Wonderland isle, it's always been a favorite story of mine. I love it to so much 
wow that looks so good!!
thats so nice 
@vivid oasis me too!! I used to watch it all the timmeeee
@proper grove maybe one of those heart fragments would look good!
Hmmm, I’m not familiar with heart fragments? But it sounds right on brand!
Glady’s house
PLease share more of your isle if it's all alice themed too sometime! 😮
could someone give me feedback on my natural looking stargazing area?
Still looking for outdoor library ideas! Feel free to ping me!
@proper grove
Just this little hidden zone is for now, but I’m o lay like 1/3 of the way done over all? Lol so who knows!
is that a real thing?? wot
If you do more I'll love it ❤️ I'll probably nerd out hahaha
does anyone have a cottagecore island o can visit?
Any ideas what to put here? (Not much to work with & my theme is Japanese island)
big zen garden
Second house 🤷 you could turn it into a zen resturaunt/library too if you wanted, with some sort of theme outside
or outdoor bath/hot springs area
Zen garden it is, ty!😊
me and my homies pull up to the zen garden in the hood @faint shale
Thoughts on my entrance what should I add or what should I do?
Thought I’d share my little museum area (feat. a single rock on a cliff :))
rip rock
Lol
I’m trying to keep my island more natural in design so I’m creating little secluded areas for my shops ☺️
i've been playing around with the idea of a crater island but i've done too much work already so i might adjust the sun and/or moon to make it look like a crater, should i do it ?
i added this. bike area to the left of my entrance but im not sure how i feel abt it. opinions?
I always have one rule when I play any animal crossing game NEVER TIME TRAVELLLLL
it would look something like this then but the second tier would continue
Thanks to ya'll I'm about to wreck my island and start all over again. Isabelle give me strength
@wise heron I only time travel so my bridges and inclines and buildings can be made faster so I can keep terraforming
...ok
terraforming is an addiction I don’t wanna have to wait a day to do more work on it 🥺🥺
Bridges and inclines are so annoying, I don’t TT and when I had to replace two bridges it drove me insane
I’m making my neighborhood and want to make small gaps between the homes. Any advice on what to put?
Little gardens, maybe even with some garden rocks, pond rocks, and an outdoor bath
I’ve never not time travelled before
Anyone else using this online 3D island planner? It's saving my life!
I’m making my neighborhood and want to make small gaps between the homes. Any advice on what to put?
@warm dew some plants, maybe take advantage of weeds as small grass
I need help on what to do with this space it’s an entrance to my garden but it looks so bald any ideas?
@vague hamlet Lol I’m just kind of going for it with my island because I’m too lazy to plan
@vapid arrow same ahahah I’m too indecisive to plan so I’m just making it up as I go along
@azure torrent Rock stools with bug models on them!
I need help on what to do with this space it’s an entrance to my garden but it looks so bald any ideas?
@azure torrent Try benches, maybe a fountain
Great ideas guys thank you! 😭
@sharp hull like this? 😎
im redoing my front entrance and i need some help for ideas and stuff
i've been playing around with the idea of a crater island but i've done too much work already so i might adjust the sun and/or moon to make it look like a crater, should i do it ?
@brittle isle tHATS SOO COOL LOOKING AAAA
@glossy oar ah thank u :c im close to ripping it apart though
lightpost maybe
@woeful trout this just seems like an excuse to brag about that stuff, I love it
@sharp hull gotta flex :p I still need 3 more bug cages for the sides and bushes in between the cages
Just take plenty of pics before you do!!
does anyone hv examples of what they did next to ables
@fringe thicket not the best but it’s a simple concept you could probably turn into something better
Try a stall with a shirt or dress on either side, hats or glasses on the stall @fringe thicket
Hi guys, Just looking for some general advice. I wan to overhaul my island. So I spent the last day flattening the ground and moving all houses to the beaches. I really like this island's design (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPm3yxBiWcU&t=650s). I think the water features and tight pathing are really awesome. I'm wondering if you guys have any tips about pre-planning your own island before I start terra-forming and making it look like crap again lmao.
Jeju is an island that mixes both the Asian landscape with their forest, their waterfall and their river can be found in the authentic villages of Jeju Island with their little house and their paved road.
We can find all the characteristics of Jeju Island from where the name...
don't tell yourself it's going to look like crap lol
i mean not the channel to bring this up but pls dont support Briclyn
@stark kettle use a 3D island planner like I'm doing right now. Saves a ton of time.
@fringe thicket Yes, definitely noted for obvious reasons. Unfortunately she happened to feature the island and i haven't seen any other videos of it 😦
good evening everyone!!
can someone post and tag me in their zen garden/bamboo forest/tranquil spaces?

@stark kettle honestly just start terraforming. begin with the cliffs and then the bodies of water. then do pathing and decorate in sections

@stark kettle get briclyn forest outta here
ya thats fine i was just letting you know in case you didnt
RIP. Guess I shouldn't have even mentioned it.
Does this look good so far? I really don’t know if I like it
can i send you guys a picture of my island map currently j for some advice? i feel like my island areas aren’t going to flow seamlessly into each other like i want them to.
i added this. bike area to the left of my entrance but im not sure how i feel abt it. opinions?
pls educate urself on that girl pls
the brick fence might be a bit too concealing, I like rope fences
@stark kettle it's okay ! you could've went with natural island and we would've gotten it i guess but you just wanted to be clear on what you wanted
STOP WATCHING HER PLS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
oooh yeah ill give it a try
@agile nymph
I agree though like just because shes the 'only person' who tours cottagecore island doesnt make a good excuse to support a terrible person
What’s wrong with her 👁👄👁
omg
any ideas for this long strip of land? my RS is really left and there’s just no space here
i have watched some of her videos because the thumbnail enticed me but i just take precautions so my view doesnt countsdjf
Just because you watch a video doesn't mean you're supporting them you guys are funny af
Which fencing would go best with Ribbot’s house? I was thinking stone or iron and stone
probably iron stone
Just because you watch a video doesn't mean you're supporting them you guys are funny af
@manic lantern u got to be kidding me giving someone views is supporting them???? u don’t understand how views work than ???
@manic lantern but watching a vid is 100% supporting the creation of more vids??
supporting the creator of the island not the person uploading the vid lmao
Thoughts on this area near my Resident Services? It’s unfinished because I don’t have the benches yet.
Sorry for the Quality 😔 but I have this little space next to my RS idk what to do with it any ideas? 
@fringe thicket any recommendations on pathing
If you are enabling somebody by watching them but don’t support their views then it doesn’t mean you share their views, it just means you’re a hypocrite
@halcyon mural maybe like a coffee shop or little restaurant? c:
I need ideas to put on this long strip of land next to my RS, I have no idea what to do with it
this is where i'm building my café... but i don't like that you can see my house in the background, any advice?
Does anyone have an outdoor party area? I wanna set up a little birthday surprise for a friend and I have no idea how to decorate, I want it outside so she can pick up some gifts
@manic lantern u got to be kidding me giving someone views is supporting them???? u don’t understand how views work than ???
@floral topaz bruh just make sure it's not a legitimate view. loop, speed forward etc
@halcyon mural maybe like a coffee shop or little restaurant? c:
@sudden tundra tysm I’m going to do that!!
@small sail some nice light posts to go with your future benches
supporting the creator of the island not the person uploading the vid lmao

Probably regular stone and not the arched one? @warm dew
updated island!
Please drop the topic of the video and take it to DMs if you wish to continue - talking about it will just give her more publicity
@fringe thicket thanks!
@vague hamlet Ok, I’ll get a couple of streetlamps for that area.
Ty selina
I wanted to come here and say I finally managed to get a diagonal bridge but there’s more drama 😭
Thanks for understanding 
Yeah peeps, let’s just use our big brains to make our islands unique and amazing
Pathing @rain prawn
@fringe thicket huh?
Oh i thought the drama was pathing for diagonal bridges lmao
Oh lol. No I don’t need paths for this bridge. It did take me like 30 minutes to finally get it tho
building a boba stand 🥺🥺🥺
Boba cake
revolutionary
What’s the grid for the map that shows on bottom right
Okay it’s off to bed for me though. Just wanted to let you all know I conquered the bridge
rosie's flower shop. she babie
anyone here think the cottage core aesthetic is a little bit overrated? i think it’s super cute but i’m seeing it a bit too much >.<
Suggestions on what I can do with this space?
you should make a flower garden or library!!
haha i had cottagecore before it became popular and now i feel its too overrated rippp its ok tho its cute
@daring fiber same hdgj im getting kind of tired of seeing mush lamps
i barely use mush lamps so its a lot less cottagecore and more just small town vibes.
small town vibes is cute though ^^
yeah its a crazy mix between everything. cutesy, vintage, natural etc. i like it
Cottagecore is one of the most natural looking theme tho 🙂
I think a lot of the execution for cottagecores r really similar which makes it a tad boring in my opnion
Cottagecore I think is just the default theme
Like the Japanese theme was super overdone but I felt a lot of the towns were more unique
Animal crossing is a cottagecore themed game is what I mean
What does cottagecore even mean
honestly the more the game ages the more themes will be overrated but it's more so on your approach to it
Being original is hard now 🥺
I mean theres so many people playing this game lol
im more bloomcore tbh, like flowers, gardening nature, etc
finally made a proper entrance!
going to need to start making my own term so it seems original xD
with big vintage vibes as well haha
I really dont think a stall would work well, what could I replace the pink bar with?
I don’t care about being original as long as it looks good y’know
Does this townhall look like it’s in E4 on map grid
thats a d
everything has already been done before with there being 15 million players so does being original even a thing ?
true lmfao
It’s kinda gatekeepy too
Nothing is ever really original
just play your game. simple as that
i made a toilet museum and a display of every knife block 💅💗🧚♀️ but seriously tho taking inspiration ain’t a bad thing!
I'm taking inspiration for a real life location. Recreating my former workplace and tourist destination.
brick or zen bridge
I have my own style, it's tulkacore, I basically copy the best parts of other people's islands and pass it as my own
i feel like people are super mean when they see something similar to what they have without realizing that there are limitations and people can have similar ideas
@civic needle it depends on the area
real-world locations are always gonna be unique so if you want a unique island do that
My beach area. Anything I should add?
Coconut juice!
@silver holly add a tiki bar!!
shell furniture
my theme.. well there is no theme. I just create whatever i like lol
@silver holly maybe some beach tables in between the hammocks
Gonna guess brick bc of the path but it’ll also be very fairy-foresty which makes me wanna do zen idk
Looking for a kiddie park area for some inspiration
FINALLY GOT APOLLO TO GO IN HAGRIDS HUT !!!😭 who I’m renaming buck beak
Beach tables w coconut juice on them works nice - personally use the log stool in birch color as tables
this is my current island it’s not looking the finest. do you guys have any tips on how i can improve it
Was makin a campsite area and made everything 3x2.....can i get an f
i am having major island design block lol, i have been running around and have come up with absolutely nothing, any ideas on a specific theme that wont be too hard to achieve lol
Take a break honestly
poor quality but
ideas or decorations that should go here? it’s to the left of RS and there isn’t a lot of space, plus the space is like rlly long and narrow
visit some other islands?
I took like a couple weeks off AC cos of creative block and it worked wonders, i redid my entire island
wait guys but zen or brick ( see my pic above)
hmm i always worry i will miss something like someone coming to my island or mabye a meteor shower etc.
try taking a hot shower. you'll be surprised of the ideas youll come up with lol
I come up with most of my ideas when I'm in bed
lol i have ideas but i dont know how to properly execute them you get me
Just try it out theres no harm
sometimes your normal villagers literally say “a plan is a fools errand” and I just wing it when I design my island instead of planning everything out
i ended up literally removing every river i had ... now i want them back..
I wing everything
i was told that the museum entrance was 2 spaces wide, but its 3. now it won't work with my setup. what do i do?
i totally agree all my ideas r so square and i feel like it'll look so boring
If youre using stairs instead of having them lead up, use stairs that lead sideways
haha yeah thats been kind of my way of viewing things as well but i always see better island designs and feel like garbage XD
@dapper flare you’re either going to have to scrap up the centered incline idea or do two inclines going up to the museum
Honestly idk if this is a good suggestion or not but if I like something I just recreate it first exactly then adjust my own twist to it, makes it easier having a base to work on
this is my island's current layout, any suggestions for which part of the map i should put the villagers' houses if i wanted to put them all together? (and have space to give them small yards ideally.) also the pond in the bottom right has stuff around it.
by square i mean that they all have no depth to them like i can see it all from one glance
good idea!
...i'm throwing away this game
Should I put bushes here and/or flowers/trees? What you guys think?
Is a fully upgraded house 5x5 or 6x6?
the entire setup leading to the museum is even omfg
personally i would say flowers or bushes
Last bridge is going in and the map layout is done
what flowers should i put outside of judys house in her lawn?
whoever lied to me i want you to know that im gonna d*e because of you
I just got 5 stars today 😍 this is a little bit of my island
@dapper flare i would just keep it it looks amazing
@desert kite I recommend her favorite color or the color of the exterior of her home
yeah i think ive done 3 real world locations or based off them
anybody got any cool inspo for a cliffy entrance?
if any of u could send cliffs with waterfalls with flowers as decoration id appreciate it my flowers look kinda awkward rn lol
I’m trying to utilize these panels to make my city feel real
It idk if I like it or not I just want it to work so badly
I did a 30 sec clip of what I have done for a enchanted forest at the entrance. Going to add decorations tomorrow.(work hasnt given me much time haha). Let me know feedback . (Sorry i dont know how to download the video from my Twitter)
https://twitter.com/Moonlit_aerie/status/1265713723504640000?s=09
@woven drift i would maybe add some more panels on cliffs behind for height?
Thanks I’ll try that
A lot of ppl r using computer thingy for buildings too im not sure of the name
The scaling is all off though os I don’t think I’ll be able to use this concept
Anyone have any ideas for a stage set type thing
Ya i feel you lmao
helo guys i need inspo for moon and space set outdoor garden, any pic or link?
Barbed wire fencing, iron fencing or spiked fencing for Wolfgang’s house?
@woven drift @fringe thicket the item's called 'server'.
@silver sorrel @daring fiber @fringe thicket
I added coconut juice and stall. But can't tiki until tomorrow
Diana trying to find a familiar
Oh you know what I’ll use them in the background
https://twitter.com/konnomd/status/1265872311380402177?s=21 HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO IGNORE IT
the ENTIRE thing is even... i feel so defeated rn omg
honestly i dont see a problem
Finished my market
im putting the museum there. the museum has a 3-wide entrance
oh rip
Put something else there
what could be as grand as the museum?
grand piano
...
god that is such a good entrance for the museum too 
@dapper flare that entrance is absolutely stunning
grand in the name bro
Okay my island isn’t to small but... I have like 4674 ideas that are big and need to fit. That is the problem.
celeste
@rugged rain at least you have ideas. I have none
I have ideas.. but no idea how to actaully put them into place 😂
But... Dino’s. Just that. DINOS. It will be great, in the end. I guess
Need to watch all the jurassic films again :’) Lets Get eaten
I made a dragon with my fossils to be my market centerpiece
So many ideas, so little space
@dapper flare maybe you could fix it by putting the museum on one side and having some space for dinos/statues on the other?
statue maze or something lol i'd feel so bad if you had to scrap that grand entrance
What tables/chairs should I put in this area??
im trying to decorate around muffy's house, any idea to fit her gothic style? 
i'm right at the edge of the top of my island...
black and purple flowers? maybe a little chess board set-up would be cute too
@minor lintel maybe the white rattan arn chair and end table? i dont know it looks modern
@woven drift Thankyou! Is it the rattan end table?
yup
hello, im checking pins rn and i want to plan my layout for editing. Is there any website or something I can use to calculate my grid and how I want to order buildings/areas in my island?
What should I put on the tables?
Looking for movie theater on beach with race car beds?
im also thinking about purple and black flowers, i will consider chess board 
@sweet dome happy island designer would probably help you out!
thank you
Hey! I'm LF an natural Island for some inspirations 😄
You can just send me an layout of your Island and send some pictures of it when you want
Hello guys!
Looking for some input and ideas to help develop this area... I want the lights and lots of flowers (I’m still breeding so only have a few so far), also see the waterscaping somehow... mmm these are roughly the elements that I’m trying to put together but I can’t seem to be able to execute the idea? Like it’s all over the place... this is a second level and it leads to more of the residential area so it’s thought out as a park and I’m not sure that adding more elevation to it would be ideal... what could help fix this? Thank you
@glad dust Someone else just said 5x4 and the internet is saying 5x5
what are you looking for @vague hamlet ?
Dimensions of a player's house
Check pins @vague hamlet
@zealous pendant even the pins say two different things
@vague hamlet mine is 5x3 And it’s fully upgraded
@vague hamlet it’s clearly says 5x3
Tho I guess it would be 4 if you count the front porch space
@zealous pendant
anyone have feudal japan island inspiration?
@vague hamlet 🤦🏻♀️ that is wrong
it's 5x3 for the actual house, but if you include the front porch it's 5x4
anyone have inspo for decoration outside a beachside villager’s home?
@zealous pendant Then it's wrong on reddit and other sites too. Like a domino effect.
you can put items on that 4th spot unless it's on the door
@versed wadi so fancy ❤
@vague hamlet just follow a 5x3- cause you’re able to put something in the porch area
@austere heath hes the fanciest of all english men
Can I see pictures of peoples shops and how they placed and decorated them? I need inspiration 🙌🏼
pip pip
indeed
i’m having the hardest time with rivers!!! it’s hard to plan them but even when i do, i can never get it to curve right
@versed wadi hooray
yawn
@glad dust I kinda saw the concept of LACMA lights surrounding it and at night all the lights look really nice.... maybe not exactly in this arrangement because it looks disorganised but yeah everything is in a temporary spot while I sort it out 
majestical
Does anyone have any ideas for a beach pirate/smugglers market. I need some stall codes too heh
@deep plank this is sort of what I did with my shops, crannys is immediately next to the residents service building and ables to t he right side of crannys
Some shots I took of my island

Does anyone know what I could do with my Island? I don’t know what to do, I get terraforming tomorrow and i don’t know where I want buildings to be
@frosty spruce Is there anyway you still have the code for the white wood path you used in the library area? (:
Hey, so, I’m working on a complete layout change of my island with terraforming. Can someone help or give ideas on what to do?
