can anyone help me with townhall ideas please

fair prawn
#

@river cypress I really like it, the only thing I would add is some flowers of shrubs that tie the colour of the house into the decoration

@fair prawn good idea!

rugged rain
#

Ever feel like shouting into the void? It's a wip, but it's coming along.
@austere heath Very cool! Do you have a picture of where and how the museum is standing?

feral pelican
#

@sour sluice I like the look of connected but unconnected allows you more ways to enter and exit without a huge change in appearance

verbal marten
#

Can anyone send photos of their nooks and ables near each other, I need inspo

feral pelican
#

Me too ^^^

fair prawn
#

@sour sluice unconnected looks cleaner and would be easier to run through

frank crane
#

I need inspiration for someone to do some constructive criticism for my island

livid owl
#

@sour sluice connected

minor silo
#

i have this huge waterfall thats blockingn my town hall/resident service- should i remove it?

spiral island
#

@outer garnet I think a couple hedges, bushes and a simple park clock might look nice

woven drift

#

@verbal marten I used the river to connect them, I can send an up close of ables if u want

austere heath
#

@rugged rain Not yet.. the maze basically leads to the museum, like its grand entrance.

solid saddle
#

I need some help... making a neighborhood, and am having an issue. Red is where my custom pathing is. It looks off to have the houses on the bottom right not match up, but I'm not sure where else to put them. Any suggestions?
Also, if I dont have the path in the center there, I can't access the houses behind them due to fencing.

storm bluff
sour sluice
#

The unconnected fences are still too thin so it doesn't allow you to squeeze by @feral pelican

Thank you for your input @fair prawn @livid owl

verbal marten
#

thanks!

Top is before. Bottom is after. I added a river through the middle of the forest and removed all of the dirt (because it made the map look clunky)

@regal adder that’s so cool! I also prefer the before to the after ! Maybe go more of a darker look?

trail dove
storm bluff
#

@haughty cave you can make more statue areas, or place fossils? or perhaps one fountain on each side~

charred swan
#

why is it impossible to get a 5 star rating

livid owl
#

@spice sapphire you could do a cafe, a music area, a playground, a gym, a shopping center. Any of those sound good?

storm bluff
#

@charred swan not impossible! just tedious haha

spice sapphire
#

@livid owl i have all of those except the gym which ill add to my list!

woven drift
#

mini cafe in front of marshal, merengue, and kiki’s houses!

civic isle
#

@haughty cave you could add butterfly models!

molten finch
woven drift
#

What’s cute furniture to decorate marshals lawn

covert stirrup
#

use cedar trees n some natural fences and furniture

hybrid cedar
covert stirrup
#

@molten finch and also spread out the trees in the back so they dont look artifical,, maybe a lil cliff surrounding the campsite with some waterfalls too would look pretty ! all ur preference tho ❤️

tacit oriole
#

@hallow raft that looks so good omg!!!!! i love the clutter!! if you wanted to add anything, i'd maybe add more texture via putting potted plants/a cacao tree somewhere in between the stalls on the left second tier

hallow raft
#

ooooo good idea

livid owl
#

@charred swan idk I just got my 5 stars today. Isabel just kept telling me to decorate so I did and eventually it worked

covert stirrup
#

i cant get 5 stars cause i have too many trees 😭

tacit oriole
#

@hybrid cedar i love that omg!!! it looks so good with the orange ice cream cone!!!!!!!

regal adder
#

too many?

molten finch
#

@covert stirrup ooo okay!

charred swan
#

i am decorating idk what else this bitch wants i cannot move on my island bc of all the stuff i have put and she’s still telling me to put more out

covert stirrup
#

regal adder
#

Are they just taking up space?

spice sapphire
#

I kinda wanna relocate my rock farm area but im not willing to wreck my island another time to spawn them all somewhere else

frosty spruce

@tacit oriole thank you!!!! it’s like the perfect mix of clean but also lived in

covert stirrup

@frosty spruce but the rocks on the beach are different shapes howd you do that? Lmao i think thats a different island

frosty spruce
#

livid owl
#

@charred swan that sucks. I don't know what else to tell you. I wish I could help😩

spice sapphire
#

Ohhh that makes sense

red lodge
#

So if I put the sand path in the middle of my island I can put palm trees?

Man, I always wonder why maps look messy yet when we see our island in person, it looks fine?

Makes me think that the map makes me feel insecure of my island even though it looks alright. isathonk

green mortar
#

My island layout. I barely changed the original river, only on the top of the cliff changed. Everything in red isnt there yet or needs to be decided. I got to 5 stars and i still feel like i got so much place to put stuff

molten crane
#

Any suggestions of what I should put here I was thinking an out doors library

frosty ivy
#

An ugly map can still mean it looks great in-game. Also vice-versa haha

fringe heron
#

Yeah, maybe I should think of how my island will look in-person instead of looking at my map.
Because my map looks super messy compared to what I see on my island

lucid path
#

Does anyone have a well layed out island that I can visit for inspiration for my own? I can pay to visit or something

@queen nexus - honestly it was really hard for me too chose, and i would start one then change again (between cottage core and city) so i just decided i'm gonna build what i build ✌🏻 i'd say just start somewhere and run with it

vast cradle
#

what are some things people use to fill up the beach besides just the traditional tiki bar?

#

@vast cradle Beach towels. Surfboards, bonfire, barbeque

Lmao everyone else's island somehow looks bigger than mine

@maiden verge HOLY THATS AMAZING

#

@spice sapphire I know what you mean. My map is basically 80% empty right now because I keep changing my mind about stuff...you'd think it being so open would make it feel huge, but I find the opposite is true lol

@red lodge Miami!

Does anyone have their shops next to Resident Services or have like a little shopping district since new shops will probably be added? I'm probably gonna do that with my shops.

I’m looking for opinions on how this grass looks at the edge of the beach- I’m trying to make it look reed-like and add something to the beach (I might’ve posted this twice but I’m not sure if the last one went through)

#

@glacial lily very cool! i would maybe scatter a few more nova lights on the right side to balance it out with the left?

@versed wadi i didn’t realize how much i used. i’m so sorry! i’ll reimagine where my items are!

austere heath
#

@versed wadi Every time you post pics of your island I'm like 😍

livid owl
#

@woven drift I had the same problem. I eventually just started selling them. I figure I can always duplicate them again if I need more later

torn geode
#

Agh, island design is so complicated and so simple at the same time!

atomic hatch
#

@woven drift put them on the beach while you decorate, then they can’t dupe when it rains and get rid of some in the meantime

Hey guys! i’m making a central perks theme area! Any ideas?

@humble rain yeah that’s the brick fireplace turned around is for!

can you guys give me some ideas on how to use the nook miles exchange items in a natural/cottagecore island? im stuck and isabelle wants me to add more of those ah

wooden sundial
#

Does anyone have a nice island entrance thing I could see I’m lacking inspiration

storm bluff
#

@worthy tendon i believe the only item i have from there on my island is green street lamps! i have a natural-ish themed island and they blend in nicely for me anyway

scenic blaze
#

@worthy tendon it's hard in a natural theme, i used the lighthouse and streetlights to bump up to 5 stars and now i only have the lighthouse on my island

It’s annoying cause my town hall is right in front of it

@wooden sundial Same

#

I may reset my island

green token
#

There are ways to make a close town hall work

wooden sundial
#

and give my stuff to my friend

teal mortar
#

Just incorporate the resident services with the entrance. Throw cliffs up behind resident services or have paths leading left/right instead of straight

glacial lily
#

does anyone have a natural/cottagecore themed island? i would love to visit

green token
#

@wooden sundial that’s not bad at all

wooden sundial
#

How hard is it to get everything again I forgot

#

@wooden sundial with your entrance i would have an incline leading to the right and throw cliffs up as the backdrop hiding RS

shrewd oak
#

tbh you have plenty of space to use

wooden sundial
#

if I get 10 mill I will reset

Your creativity to make something work is what makes an island stand out

Hey I need a lil help with something, this is a wip for my outdoor library and I can’t decide on which inclines I should use, I’m thinking of either the log staircase or white ramp, I know that the ramp matches the color scheme better but it kind of bothers me since I prefer stairs over ramps, but the stairs aren’t the same color of wood, what should I do?

@round compass sadly there isnt much that you can do on rocks. I'd put some diner counter chairs and coffee cups. Maybe make the diner counter the only thing on the rocks and have the tables be on the sand. It's up to you though.

@proper kelp If something doesn'st work, try scaling it up or down a pixel. for a lower case e i would start with the closes section , the half circle and go from there

Isabelle wants your island to be barren of the natural resources it needs. She is detirmend to sabatoge your island in order to go home. Tom Nook trapped her and working 24 hour shifts have taken it's toll. She just wants to go home. or something

@exotic wyvern Looks to be 8 wide, 10 tall. The crescent width is 3 meaning the bay is 5 wide. The top and bottom are 2 tall, leaving the bay's height as 6. The lantern is offset a bit being 3 water tiles above it, 2 below

Does anyone know if once you have the 5 star rating can you go back down in star?

yes you can @livid owl

Thanks

@pine musk Either ignore her or do what you can to get the 5 star, then replant the trees. It's the amount, not spaces

yeah @livid owl that literally just happened to me haha, i was at 5 stars and then isabelle complained about the trees so i had to dig some up and now i'm back to 5 stars

I believe Mcgibbon has 4 stars right now because his island is entire natural and filled with trees

I might just get rid of all except 1 of each type of fruit tree

The previous iterations were nice but they just didn't make me happy. They weren't super walkable and it was a pain to get around and the shapes were very strict and rigid, though they looked nice from the air.

@ebon bolt try using the brick pathway instead of the tiled pavement, and get some orange trees maybe? You look like you're off to a good start tho! Honestly it'd probably be easier to have orange as your accent color, I had a hard time getting orange in my town with just furniture lol

@winged inlet what you can do is ask to build an incline in all the styles and do "let me imagine it" before you decide so you know which one you like best. Nook lets you return the incline planner if you dont want to build it at that moment. stone's my favorite tho lol
