Or being able to sit with villagers like o wanna sit with Judy smh
Campsite
@grave lagoon another one just for youu!, might be a little too dark
i know it would be very hard to do but imagine having a lazy river type island, youre on your raft or something and you just see everything as the river winds through your island
@queen badger woah woah woah hold up HOW, you rlly called me broke Im 196 different languages
Not my idea tho, seen it on reddit somewhere and its too good, so i had to take the idea >.< and most of my island is japanese/ zen themed so fits perfectlyy
how close to the edge of a cliff can i put a building? do i need to leave a block of space or can i put it right on the edge?
@queen badger gimmy one sec to get back to life... And so many pagodas! For real i like the perspective. Im trying my best but everything is still in progress. U gave me a lot inspiration
Thats why my little cliff only goes to 2nd level: theres physically no room to have another cliff
@boreal thunder iktf, my airport is only 9 spaces from my plaza
how did you get 12 pagodas
Anyone have any ideas for decorating resident services? Going for a cottage core theme, and I have books and cranny on the right, and my museum on the right, and it's on the 2nd level
Probably buyd them I sold the one I got to @boreal thunder
Hey will anyone help me find a good layout for my island? I’ll send you a base of my map. I can do bells if you want me to pay you. DM if interested
@boreal thunder when dupe was lit 🤣
I got all the pagodas legit through trading before the dupe glitches, a bit pissed about all the glitches ruined the rarity of items but ye
i spent 70 nmt on 6 warrior statues lol
Ouch
ye i had a lot of lucky cats and pagodas before the glitch, i died a little inside
I was Literally to dump to understand the first glitch and never tested the other ones @queen badger
any tips? l
Me either... So many nmts spended on those items and there was the glitch... Cry me a river..
I have this on my island too, but might get rid of it, it's too big >.<
any ideas for what i could end this path with?
@queen badger hallelujah... I quite AC...
looking for an insta/twitter page that has a cottage/forest themed island for inspiration!!! pls drop there @ ❤️
wait theres pancakes in the game
custom design on a hat
Its custom designs on hats >.<
nvm i see the hat but it looks well on the black table
so many out there, and they look so good!
@gray moth For an island with a lot of seemingly natural look (not straight lines everywhere), having a rigid residential area seems a bit out of place. You can still have a distinct residential area, but don't make it look cookie-cutter, you know?
I need to start over😭 🤣
Anyone have any designs for displaying villager photos outdoors? I have the photos from a few villagers that left and I want to make something for them (not a grave)
idea
mm okay Thanks sm caleb, i'll change it to be more natural looking, and beautiful jelly!
This is further up in the market alley, and a hidden office for redd just to the right of the private beach!
has anyone done a log cabin type area
have little stools that they're set on, with a clearing in a bunch of trees. no graves, but have like a telescope and some star related stuff
Can i see some house layouts for people's islands?
@queen badger dude- how are you so Creative? I really wana visit your Island now @-@
a mix of others ideas i've seen and some of my ideas >.< tysm! i cant take all the credit for it
@fierce viper I have mine in neighborhoods, top right side is a wip though. I just have my home on the beach temporarily because its closer to the airport lol
If anyone has a cottagecore/natural island I could visit that would be amazing !
Anyone have a resident area that go straight across?
oooh cool ty! @limber ginkgo
any tips? ignore the circles
which paths match the brick inclines/bridges and the wood paths most? terra cotta or brick?
things i do not like: the fact that my house is 5 blocks across but all the inclines/bridges are 2/4 so i cant get things even :)
I'll @quasi galleon idk how to do the rivers XD
does anyone have a natural themed island i can visit?
I'm even to stupid to take Others Ideas :,) but pls Text me wehn your Island is finish I wana see all of it :) you can visit mine to but mine is not so pretty like yours @queen badger
@short reef hard pick but id say brick
Tips on an entrance? Can’t think of anything.. it looks bad. I received terraforming today and finally want to revamp my entrance and create a neighborhood
Just finished this today!! Needs work but i like it!!!
@woven drift Sure thing! , and im sure you'll get there eventually and will just be as good!
@ksond gasp i love those chairs and tables

@glacial lily I try to do mine to be natural but It's not finish you can come and look tho
looking for cottaged/forest themed island!! pls dm me if u have one to get ispiration<3 stay safe

Everybody’s island looks so good!! and then mine is like 🤕
@nova quest how can you be this creative D:
@woven drift aww thanks lol
I’m completely changing the layout of my island with terraforming, and I’m not sure what to do. It’s too late to back out. Any ideas?
@nova quest can I dm you for inspiration? xd
@woven drift sure!
Finally got the rocks in, second time moving rocks definitely isn't any easier. Not sure what to put on top but in the meantime I'm leaving it clear since Lilies are spawning. Also need one or two more gold sarcs
@woven drift working on mine
something a lot of people dont use often is the 3rd cliff. It can be really useful for scale, even though its unaccessible. Example:
It can make your island seem so much bigger
I don't really like it bc I can't but stuff on it but at your place it looks really good @boreal thunder
Since I do a crafting service, should I decorate the area I use kinda of like a. Crafting service store/area?
if you want. its all up to you, @viral stag
I want to, but I need some inspo. Idk where to really get started
All I kno is I need my bench XD
i have this really long space and i don’t know what to do or what to make here. Any ideas? looking to get rid of all the flowers.

Should I have my villagers house all in one spot or sperpetrated
This is what I did around my house
That around my house
So coco is now the local farmer, meanwhile, the other villagers live in squalor
Haha! I did that too! Made coco my farmer
Coco: living a lavish, styled lifestyle
The other villager: empty.
This is in front of my house, I need a little of inspo bc I want to take off the flowers and put furnitures in a kawaii style
does anyone have any inspo pics of an outdoor bar or spa they could show me
would y'all rather villagers houses in one places or scattered around ur island?
All in one place

@whole walrus front & back of my house! 😊
You guys I want to scrap this area of my island but I have no clue what to put there instead.
@woven drift the flowers, hearts, and stone lol
Flower layouts?
@quasi galleon the river should be 3 spaces wide. It looks like it might be 4 spaces in your image
Thank u!!
Does anyone have any ideas for entrances that are kind of close to the plaza? I can’t think of anything
Everyone and their mother is making an outdoor library. So here's mine

My entrance for layouts that resident services right next to airport!
Here’s mine
Since it’s right next to resident services
Hi y’all! I’m planning things out bc yaknow.. terraforming and I need to know, does that look even so far?
It does!
I too also have residence service right at the airport. Look, there's K.K. right there.
Is it a good place for an outdoor library ?
Yes
how many squares should i have my villagers yards, i'd like to customise it to their style :)
Campsite. Flower garden.
@hazy raven mines so close too!
Could I peep your neighbourhoods? Or just your villagers' yards?
@hazy raven I really like that! Would it be okay if I did something similar?
Can anyone with a zen themed island show me what they did with their museum? :))
So I’m moving stuff around on my island rn and I want my nooks cranny and able sisters to be like a little shopping center, where on my map should I put them
Yeah go ahead :)
Thank you so much!
What would go good in roald’s yard?
@eager wadi yeah go ahead :)
😁
@nova quest wow yours is super close to the airport
if anyone has cool neighborhood designs, can you send it plz? i need inspo 🤣
@hazy raven I know! 😔
Yeah that's how mine is!! Such a pain to figure out what to do!!
anyone have a really easy to use map planner? i already checked the pins
So what goes in roalds yard. He’s a blue jock penguin
Hey! If anyone has any pictures of where they placed their islanders can you send them to me? I am planning on moving all of mine because they don't work where they are now.
Looking for drive up theaters with the car beds!
Can somebody explain to me the steps of getting paths? Do I have to complete project K first? If so, what happens next? Sorry I am still kind of new 😛
can i tour anyones cottage/forest themed islands!! ill pay in whatever u want<3
@karmic needle yeah! After KK plays you unlock teraform!
Can somebody explain to me the steps of getting paths? Do I have to complete project K first? If so, what happens next? Sorry I am still kind of new 😛
@karmic needle yes you need a 3 star island then it’ll unlock
3 stars gets him to play!
@snow vine sorry for bad quality! I put mine close together as I like the natural village feel!
Thank you! So far I am a two star. Super close, she keeps saying my island is cluttered but I am having trouble finding random furniture. 
Let me know if you want a quick tour ☺️ I’m going out soon . If you come please be respectful
Any one have any inspiration pics for the front of the town hall?
@karmic needle yeah 3 stars! If you go to Isabelle in RS and click island Evals she will tell you what you need to improve on
@glossy blade Ooo! I am sure your island is awesome with a rating like that!! 
Finally Redd appears
@karmic needle cluttered means dropped items.. Make sure you have all your fossils and crafted items picked up off the floor, because it’ll be classed as too cluttered then 🙂
What do you guys do with your fruit trees? I was thinking of an orchard but I need inspo 😦 (I’m trying to go for white modern theme on my island)
@karmic needle thank you so much
@karmic needle try cataloging! Easiest way to get furniture & gives you time to save up to buy!
hey guys im looking for landscaping ideas for my island anyone able to help me
My new lake what do u guys think
Thank you guys so much for the advice!!!
@heavy summit I love how the lake looks natural still, it give the place a more naturally beautiful vibe!
new entrance for my natural island!
Thank you! So far I am a two star. Super close, she keeps saying my island is cluttered but I am having trouble finding random furniture.
@karmic needle cluttered means dropped items (sticks, diys, tools, plus items too close together I think might trigger)
I honestly dislike terraforming - I don't find it enjoyable & I'm not creative. I still want a nice looking island. Any tips on what should I do?
Thanks it took me like 6.5 hours at least
can i tour anyones cottage/forest themed islands!! ill pay in whatever u want<3
Oh, so furniture that is placed would not count for cluttered items, thank you!
@sour token i would let u but i’ve only done the first part lol!
Im looking for tips on outdoor furniture ideas
@hushed pier honestly same here. I am the worst at decorating, but I just started doing what I wanted and eventually got something cool
My island so far!! So happy with my villagers too
@lunar aurora I suggest you use garden benches and or hedges! It will make your place look elegant!
I need residential area inspo for a cottagecore/woodsy themed island - anyone?
@eager wadi I repeatedly terraformed and then just scrapped it because I'm not creative and it's not what I'm looking for
can i tour anyones cottage/forest themed islands!! ill pay in whatever u want<3
@sour token mine is a wild flower/forest five star.
Does anyone have a tiered neighborhood layout for their villagers homes? I want to do one but also give them some space to decorate their yards
@lunar aurora I suggest you use garden benches and or hedges! It will make your place look elegant!
@karmic needle where you get garden benches
@glad epoch You have Marshal and Blueberry! (I do not know her real name but I called her that in Pocket Camp) Your island is also very organized! I love it! The face that you still has space puts me to shame.
can i visit any cottage theme islands? please 🥺

Does anyone have a tiered neighborhood layout for their villagers homes? I want to do one but also give them some space to decorate their yards
@versed gulch I do. Greatly limits the space but I did like lil porches
@lunar aurora It is just a DIY recipe you might find. There are other benches too 😄
can i visit a cottagecore or natural themed island?
@karmic needle awe thank you! Ya I still have so much gardening to do lmao
how’s this for my cottage-natural island?
aaah I’d love to let people come visit my island. But it’s only 3 star and a huge WIP - here’s my entrance and library
How do u guys like my lake
I'm liking my zen garden so far :D
how do i make a nice park area?
I made Lily an island
@lulubells that is AMAZING
@patent sky I dislike your lake, however I do love your lake! It is so natural and gives your island a more fresh vibe!
@green token So cute! I can tell Lilly is the favorite of the bunch 
I need some inspo for an outdoor library please
@fallen thorn I am certainly liking it too!!!
Everyone else has been mean to me when I ask this question, but I know my #island-designs fam will understand. I've played 400+ hours and got 5 stars only to find out that my beloved "w h o r e" island has been reported. I'm going to restart my island tonight. Aside from moving my catalog to a friends island, moving bells + NMTS etc... do you all have any suggestions for restarting?
anyone have layouts for houses that I can use for inspiration?
@woven drift
I am so sad!!!! 😦
@lavish flume you should plan the layout in the website in pins
you cant get reported if you dont invite people
@lunar aurora my residential park!
@lavish flume I believe your island will be fine, but like @viscid mango said, you should prepare your layout! 😄
@karmic needle wait so do you like it or no 😂
Thanks Hannah
@lavish flume think of it as a fresh start! think of cool island names, plan your theme and layout, etc.
@patent sky I tried to slide in the good ole, I don't like it, I love it! XD
@woven drift np
Bridges over cliffs yooooooooo https://twitter.com/tobitobi_bibi/status/1266027200920219649
@lunar aurora my residential park!
@nova quest OOOOOOO looks nice where did you get the swing
@nova questSo nice of you!
@woven drift
Thanks everyone!!! Any tips on getting islanders you want in the first go around? Like can I restart before it saves?
@lunar aurora the swing is a DIY!
residential area ideas for a cottagecore island?
@lunar aurora the swing is a DIY!
@nova quest oh nice! I like that
@sour ravine thanks
can i tour anyones cottage/forest themed islands!! ill pay in whatever u want<3
@lavish flume Time travel, however I do not suggest you do this. If you end up finding villagers you like, you will never be able to come back to todays time. Therefore you may miss cool events like meteor showers 😦
any opinions on this section of my island? any tips or criticism? i feel like it’s one of the weaker points of my layout and am considering phasing it out but idk if i’m just tripping
This is what the lake turned into
can i see someones nature/cottagecore entrance?
@glacial lily
@swift pier Looking at this, I feel like it is fine! I do think it is a tad cramped however. Maybe you can fix that?
You can TT back to the current date but you have to get the villager all moved in first (go two days ahead)
@glacial lily
i made a little marketplace near my lake side, how you guys like it, any improvements?
i agree! @karmic needle maybe no garden benches on the sides would help? i’ll experiment!
Bluebears house!!!!! Saw it on YT and loved it! Thought why not make it myself thoughts?
@swift pier I love it!! Maybe try focusing in on one or two sections instead of three?
@swift pier Good luck!
does anyone have large bodies of water in the middle of their island like this?
Woaaaa how long did that take lol
anyone have home layout concepts for ideas?
can i visit any cottagecore/natural islands??
@cosmic jungle OMG That is so cool!!! I LOVE THAT!
anyone have an opinion on the island name spaghetti? Lol I’m regretting it : ‘ )
thank you! @woven drift definitely, i might kill either the fountain or the teacup ride so it doesn’t feel like 3 sections cramped together but rather one section with two halves
@muted anchor amazing, talented, showstopping
@river cypress @karmic needle it's from hatamoke_ on twitter!!
@rare mountain haha thanks
@cosmic jungle It is still extremely awesome!
@muted anchor at least its not w h o r e and youre not getting pressure to delete your island lol. I love spaghetti!
Here's my marketplace
Mini picnic and update on the nameless area
@patent sky please send me the patterns for your market, thats beautiful
@burnt sparrow it looks so beautiful! I'm soooo annoyed I missed out on the picnic food thing!
Finishing up my villagers' neighborhood, trying to make it look very overgrown and rustic
@nova quest Thank you! ♡
I was thinking of maybe giving my island a gothic old-west look, do you think there’s enough furniture to make that happen?
I need opinions on the beach grass and the area as a whole... I spent like 300 NMT on the Moai Statue area and want to make it appealing so tell me if you have any thoughts
@river cypress @karmic needle it's from hatamoke_ on twitter!!
@cosmic jungle yes! That’s where it’s from ugh ty!
@boreal thunder the stalls are sable patterns but here's the rug
@soft plaza looks amazing!
@swift pier i’d keep the fountain! I love it between the benches, it sets a nice mood 🙂
I just discovered what cottagecore/fairycore is and I literally want to re-transform my entire island another time.... please someone stop me
@sand sequoia :3333c do itttttt
put all buildings to the beach and wipe the slate
Finished setup for my sister's surprise birthday party! She's out of town on her birthday so we're celebrating Animal Crossing style! Thank you to those who suggested the bunny day balloons 😊
@patent sky are you sure thats the floor pattern?
Yes look under the creator code
@sand sequoia :3333c do itttttt
@woven driftbut its so much workkkkkkk wahhhh
Re-did the entrance and made a lil beach hangout
Just out of curiosity, how come a lot of advanced islands have their beaches absolutely coated with flowers? Whats the point in doing that?
@sand sequoia you should do it! exact same thing happened to me and i have no regrets :)
@sand sequoia you should do it! exact same thing happened to me and i have no regrets :)
@rare mountain do you have before/after? Any tips ?
@sand sequoia yes I was going for a diff theme, discovered cottagecore, I have no regrets : ‘)
I'm lost.. what is cottagecore? lol
If you place fake art on your island, will it affect your island rating?
@nova quest in acnh it’s a cozy, natural theme, very woodsy/foresty, often includes things like mushrooms
@sand sequoia yes I was going for a diff theme, discovered cottagecore, I have no regrets : ‘)
@muted anchor would love to see!!
Can somebody help me with my stargazing area
@muted anchor oooo! Makes sense lol
@sand sequoia i dont have a before and after sorry but i guess just dont try to make too many symmetrical things, waterfalls are super cute in blank areas that are a bit boring, mush lamps are a musttt and theres always a way to tie in a more professional look, in my case im doing a nice neighbourhood
@sand sequoia still a WIP but
I'm lost.. what is cottagecore? lol
@nova quest its like WWI themed
I need opinions!! I have ables in the back and was thinking of moving nooks where these squares are but I’m not sure if it’ll look weird or not 😔 I have some more space in front but idkkk
@sand sequoia i dont have a before and after sorry but i guess just dont try to make too many symmetrical things, waterfalls are super cute in blank areas that are a bit boring, mush lamps are a musttt and theres always a way to tie in a more professional look, in my case im doing a nice neighbourhood
@rare mountain the way to get mush lamps and mushrooms is to be in fall right? unless I trade for them?
I made my docks a sunken pirate ship. Any suggestions?
I made my docks a sunken pirate ship. Any suggestions?
@heady viper that looks awesome!!
@sand sequoia yes!! im in the southern hemisphere so its fall/ autumn for me :)
@sand sequoia specifically you have to be in November.
can i tour anyones cottage/forest themed islands!! ill pay in whatever u want<3
I'm in the northern hemisphere and I was tt'ing to get the diy, which I got earlier today after a week of searching.
@sand sequoia yes!! im in the southern hemisphere so its fall/ autumn for me :)
@rare mountain this is my map right now, do you have any recommendations for how to begin? Do I just move my villagers and buildings to the beach again and terraform the entire land?
@sand sequoia most cottagecore islands include a lot of random cliffs and things so yeah probably
can i tour anyones cottage/forest themed islands!! ill pay in whatever u want<3 i can pay in nmt,bell,ANY star frag, golden nuggets, ANYTHING,
It'll take forever but I hope I'll like it after hahaha
@heady viper this is super cool, thanks for posting! also mad flex with all those tall garden rocks
hi guys!! just wanted to show u guys one little spot on my island - a little cliff behind ables looking over instrument islands!
@heady viper that looks awesome!!
@sand sequoia thanks. Is it obvious that its a sunken ship?
I have this empty strip of land (it's long, like five houses worth) in front of my neighborhood, any ideas?
@sand sequoia thanks. Is it obvious that its a sunken ship?
@heady viper I think so, yeah!
omg @heady viper that looks so good!! if u wanted to add more, maybe some scattered papers, stolen treasure?
@heady viper maybe some leaf piles to look like seaweed? idk if that would be clear tho
I have no idea what to put on that empty path! Can someone plz help?
by stolen treasure, itd look VERY cool with some art
Any tips for my museum area? I have been thinking about changing out all the flowers to a different color, but Idk what color to make them.
@heady viper I believe theres a skull fossil and one would look great in that area!
What do u guys think about my entrance for my tropical theme island?
@heady viper this is super cool, thanks for posting! also mad flex with all those tall garden rocks
@scenic blaze thanks. Dont get me started with the garden rocks. I have around 15 of em in my island and 13 stone arches. Im practically the stone queen on the mats sub
@outer saffron maybe and a eating area?
Yeah!
@outer saffron hmm itd look cool with some benches and bushes overlooking a fossil set or some statues?
@heady viper also maybe a skeleton or a skull radio could be cool
@quiet haven never thought of it! so cool!
@quiet haven woah i love that!!!! im iffy on the straw fence tho, the country fence or bamboo lattice fence might look more natural
Anyone got any island tips I really need help getting to 5 stars
@heady viper i use a shitton of stone and every time i see someone with 11208970123 garden rocks i pour one out for them
if you want to add a treasure chest looking item, i use imperial chest in brown, it's the best option in the game imo
Ty @inland furnace!
Could I get some waterfall entrance inspos?
@quiet haven what if you added a tiki booth or a smoothie bar?
Ooo I’ll try those fences! @tacit oriole
here's my entrance! not a typical waterfall entrance but i rly like it :0
I already made my tiki bar 🙂
@tacit oriole ooo I like that
u can see it more clearly here! (sry i keep reusing this photo oop)
@heady viper i use a shitton of stone and every time i see someone with 11208970123 garden rocks i pour one out for them
if you want to add a treasure chest looking item, i use imperial chest in brown, it's the best option in the game imo
@scenic blaze thanks
I have these going as well. On the right of the ship and on top. Its supposed that this a ship looking for a treasure but got shipwrecked
Is anyone open to island tours, I need ideas for my island, please.
Anyone have any island tips
good lord cali
I'm guessing she likes her new front yard
I really should have planned out where to put stuff more, my island is at best like 2/3 full but very little of the space left is that useable
@heady viper THAT LOOKS INCREDIBLE WOAH??? the story omg!! i love the treasure spot!!!
@wet parrot I know right
My infinity pool :)
can someone pls show map layout of their island? trying to decide where to place my villagers in one area
Does anybody have free diys or spotlights or, regular furniture
@heady viper also maybe a skeleton or a skull radio could be cool
@vast cradle thanks for this. Definitely they're a good addition.
Plus the sea weeds as well that someone else suggested
Anyone have any Greek/Roman inspired areas?
@solar light Not fully developed yet, but the houses locations are more than likely finalized. (Also a slightly old picture)
Can I get some entrance inspo? I don't like my current entrance linking to the residential services 
Plus the sea weeds as well that someone else suggested
@heady viper that was also me lmao
Thought the sky looked really nice
for seaweed on my beaches i plant pansy seeds, they don't grow and the leaves look like seaweed
woahahha @fallen grove i love the look of your rivers!
Ok so I found a really cool entrance I wanted to share, it is not mine
@scenic blaze oh thats a really good idea
@tacit oriole thank you!
thank u! @fallen grove
i have a lot of seeds planted here but the ones to the left of the zen cushion and the ones on top of the turtle are the pansies
It’s a shame you can’t keep flowers in bud form, cause I love those green mums like that
Didn't know you could put stuff on zen cushions!
you can keep them as buds on the beach! these don't regrow
Wait really? I didn’t know that
is there a way to have more sand in beach to move all villagers there or?
Anyone have a multi level set up with their villager houses I can see?
anyone have ideas to decorate shopS ?
ya, weeds will still grow on the beach if you're under the weed limit, but flowers will stay frozen at whatever form you planted them. it's only annoying when i run over a fully grown one bc i have to replace it with something full grown
My forest themed entrance
anyone have beach inspo?? not sure what i want to do with all the space
@tawny rose heres pashmina AMD audie
@scenic blaze well that’s good info to know for future decorating
Woa that's so pretty, I put my villagers houses too close together to make cute yards now I'm having to redo them haha
What are some good space biller ideas? I have a big space near ables and idk what to do 🥺
Maybe an outdoor library, those are really cool
I’d love to do one!! If I had good diys 😅 I’m just heavily debating whether to put nooks and ables close together 🤔
Anyone wanna visit my island? I’m not doing anything though
Can I see some areas around the secret beach, I decorated mine but idk what to do with the surrounding area 😓
Bruh I May pay people to come and critique my island Idk tho...
Is anyone having island tours, I need ideas for mine. Please
Hey I'm planning on making an Avatar the Last Airbender themed island, does anyone have any ideas?
I didn't know what to put outside Gwens house so I made her a cat mom!
Guess who's house
barold
Anicotti 😂😂😂
nah its moose
Ooh! I love these layouts! I'm taking notes!
I love giving villagers gardens around their homes.
i love tabby i'm so glad someone is appreciating her
It's actually cube's house but they like to share yards haha. I gave him a bug since he likes them so much
@hazy raven it do be marshal
Nothing too fancy, but this is Ed's house. There is another house that looks similar to this on the other side which belongs to Rocco. I'm going to move them around soon once my amiibo cards of Chrissy and Francine come in next week.
@scenic blaze I LOVE tabby 😁@dapper mural ye be correct !
Thoughts/Opinions/Advice on this plan for my new cottagecore/fairycore island?
merry & gladys’s exteriors~
The entrance to my backwoods area, to the side is the mountain lake and behind is the campsite. I went for a more “Small town” vibe with it
Some bits from my Mirkwood Forest themed island!! 1 is just the forest and 2 is the wine cellar and guard's chamber from the scene barrels out of bond. Critique?
@storm bluff Woow looks so good!
this chat is so dead now lol
Can someone like seriously help me with my island? Like i want brutal honesty
Wolfgang's yard. He likes reading
@indigo acorn i can help if u want
Lf fish market inspiration
What flowers look nice with the mush lamp / nova light aesthetic?
What flowers look nice with the mush lamp / nova light aesthetic?
@limber ginkgo any collection of flowers can look nice, depends what aesthetic you're looking for, either opposing colors, or matching colors
@limber ginkgo i scattered nova lights in my yellow flower area !!
so pretty
What’s a good place to start from if your island is completely flat?
Start from the entrance
All flowers kinda go with nova lights
guys where do i sart i dont know where to start
I was thinking brighter colored flowers look better during the day
All flowers kinda go with nova lights
@soft plaza are those smaller ones dropped fragments?
like what kind of areas should i make
no they are star clocks facing backwards
Ohhhh Sheesh I've always wondered how people got smaller lamps LMAO
@storm bluff THAT LOOKS SO GOOD
BREAK MY HEART
I really want sunflowers tbh i cant believe they didnt put em in 😤
Wat do y’all think of my KK pop up shop? It changes with every npc. I’ve got a Daisy Mae one, Celeste, etc. would rlly love feedback plz!
Neat idea! @cobalt anvil
the hoodie is a nice touch
Thx!
@alpine root that would be great! I guess cuz it doesn't come in other colors
but sunflowers are special ;_;
Help! I dont know what to put here
Anyone have any outdoor diner inspo pics??
Help! I dont know what to put here
@slow crown
Maybe some kind of light?
lily of the valleys dont come in other colours too 
they should add sunflowers 😤
Trees
farm and/or orchard inspo? i have an orchard with 6 of each fruit tree. but i don’t like how it looks or really where it’s placed
what type of light? would it be good to put a table and bench in here
My little project!
any advice for this resident center area? I tried my best with the airport being so close
Which combo looks best? arched and white , wood and white, stone and white?
How do I customize this to make it look like a witches home?
@obsidian oar I ended up cutting down my orchard by half cuz I never use it for money. At this point it's just obligatory orchard. And it took up a lot of space. So maybe reduce it or spruce it up with items like a dirt cart or fruits basket
@sand sequoia Do you got pictures of your isle in normal view? I love the map ❤️
How do I customize this to make it look like a witches home?
@woven drift Thats cute!
Which combo looks best? arched and white , wood and white, stone and white?
@Chloe.x#3464 I feel like the wood and white is a good contrast
@hazy raven that’s the problem i’m having. it looks nice, but serves no purpose. i’ll try that, thank you!!
@soft plaza how do you get different size nova lights?
hedges
Hedges
Could be a little less black
Kind of
Maybe change the roof a little
Maybe orange
maybe make the roof a shade of purple, or even change the purple to a dark green and change the roof too.
i need some urgent help!! does anyone have any ideas of what furniture to put outside or marinas lawn or inspo? its so bland rn and i hate it
What about the black stone house exterior? I feel like witches always live in stone creepy houses xD still looks witchy tho
@sand sequoia Do you got pictures of your isle in normal view? I love the map ❤️
@vivid oasis thanks! This is just a rough plan... I’m redoing my entire island haha 😆
marina's very pink, so maybe a combo of pink flowers. try looking in your nook shopping for outdoorsy pink furniture. theres a pink beach chair and a magazine rack would be pretty.
Ooh! Well I think it'll look amazing! @sand sequoia
LOOKING FOR ISLAND DESIGN HELP
Send me a image of your island.
How much NMT will you need to help me out with this process.
I have enough bells to move around stuff as much as you think is necessary.
Let’s work together to make my island better.
Must be able to get on Vc.
Pm me.
Dont forget to contrast colors!
@woven drift I think that looks super witchy!! I tried to do the same but wasn't happy with my outcome, you've inspired me to try again haha. Purple roof could look very cute too 😄 edit: maybe try the purple metal door
Ooh! Well I think it'll look amazing! @sand sequoia
@vivid oasis tysm!!
it’s between these too witch homes for me 1 or 2? Or could it be better? @serene rose aww hopefully it turns out amazing :3
2, I love the stone design
def 2
My lighthouse area
👍 2
I love 1 but 2 definitely looks more witchy.
Bruh my house is already #2
Would anyone be willing to visit my island and give some notes on where to improve? Like its not even remotely done but Id atleast like some suggestions on where somethings would go.
2 is definitely more witchy (but I prefer 1 lol)
marina's very pink, so maybe a combo of pink flowers. try looking in your nook shopping for outdoorsy pink furniture. theres a pink beach chair and a magazine rack would be pretty.
@sinful kraken thanks smm
yeah lol I like one better as a regular house but I’m going with 2 tysm guys!!
here’s one of my favorite spots. the little gnome village! (used the happy home trophies as houses) (incomplete)
is it worth it to make a southern hem island on my second switch?
@woven drift totally.
Second switch???
i feel like that would look good with the mushroom lamps ive been seeing going around I love the little gnome villager tho 
@woven drift Yes! Go for it!! It will let you catch different bugs/fish and experience the different seasons :))
i’m just scared of winter for some reason😣
when does it even start?
i really need to get my hands on more mush lamps haha! traded a bunch of nova lamps for them and i’m already out of them
im waiting for fall to come around but i might cave and get some who knows
Trying to figure out what would look good here in this little strip, anyone have any creative ideas?
Which goes better stone or normal
does anyone happen to have marina and could send me a pic of what you did for her lawn outside her house?
@cosmic crystal bike stand? edit:: maybe with some vending machines??
diana in my lil garden area ;-;💕
I honestly don't like having divides in the middle of the flower field, I mean whatcha think?
What it used to be vvvvv , which is better?
@quasi galleon better than the old one?
ye the paths look more organized
Depends what vibe you want, second one is more natural wild flower field, newer one is more planned out city garden vibe
Only you'll know which works best for you
any ideas on what to else to out in diner area??
thanks everyone
This is my shop
hey guys my peninsula is like super tiny any ideas on what to put?
@calm granite love your use of inclines right from the airport!
My receptionist desk entrance (night time / daytime) 💕💞
@woven drift Very nice
how do you guys setup your villagers
Mine isnt done yet but Im thinking of spreading them out maybe and making some of them themed
could someone send me a tutorial on a star lake please?
Maybe this is extra but depending on the villagers hobby/house exterior I'll put them into either the residential area or find them a spot spread out that I can design around
@feral current
My villagers yards are designed to their personalities
Thoughts on new entrance how can i make it better
@twilit lintel thank youuuu
Anyone have cool Moon displays ?
@odd falcon for my villagers i gave them special little backyards according to their interests c: they take up a lot of space but that's ok because i care them🥺
@quasi galleon How did you make the bakery panels? They look amazing!!
Mira’s yard cause she’s a superstar (and also the interior is designed like a stage)
@placid quail
But did you put it on a particular diy to get it to that height?
@placid quail
can i tour anyones cottage/forest themed islands!! ill pay in whatever u want<3 i can pay in nmt,bell,ANY star frag, golden nuggets, materials, and ANYTHING
@quasi galleon Thanks!! 😄
@placid quail
@placid quail
Moon
anyone know what i could do to avoid everything going so wrong in this photo BAHAHA
White plank ramp or wooden staircase for my outside library? The two holes is where the two inclines are gonna go
2nd
White for sure
Both look good but I don’t know which one I like the most :’0
white
white looks so saturated tho, the wood adds that pop of colour
i dont see white used that often and imo it looks super pretty~~
I like the white
@alpine root I though that too! And it also blends really pretty with the country fencing, but I really don’t know 😦
@patent sky i’m pretty sure it was you who had a really cool market, could you send it
Can I see someone’s airport entrance ?
@visual hearth yesss the white ramp is so cute, I have like three of them
id go with the white ramps, i like the color of the log stairs better but the way it’s built looks v distracting and takes away from the clean/simple design of the rest of the space
@sage gorge ye imo the wood adds the pop and the texturing with the spacing of the steps is 
What should be right here for a eagle who wants to be a cop. And is a jock
Sure here's the market
Hi I need a nooks and crannys and ables inspiration
@steady brook the black gnome with the sunglasses that finger tho 
@halcyon totem entrance
@patent sky this is so simple but supa qyute 🥺
front yard 🙂
I need those stars! 🤩
not my photo but thought i’d share🤩 (photo from @nooAm013 on twitter)
native fruit in front of plaza 🍎
My Resource Center is perfectly in the middle of my island. I think it’s the only one like that. How can I smooth out the gap between my airport and my RC. I’m really into symmetrical things.
museum entrance
villager house backyard/frontyard
cafe in front of Ables & Nook Shop
my “marketplace”
matching houses w/ flowers 🥰
hopefully these can be an Inspo for y’all to decorate your island ☺️☺️
I don't know what to put next to this well any suggestions?
@sly brook you should create a big circle and put benches on the sides where the tulips are
What do you guys think about my little Cafe
(It’s not finished yet since I don’t have any of the coffe items)
So, I started my gambling/arcade tonight and I tried some designs for the floor. The best I came up with was this one. Any opinions? Is it too overwhelming?
thanks @gentle flower
Can u guys show me your shopping area ? I'm really struggling to decorate my nooks cranny and ables
Which nova light color should I use?
@halcyon mural that’s a cute cafe :3
i like the one on the right 🙂
@limber crater why not both? It’s looks diverse and cute
also btw I love your island @gentle flower
@blazing basin idk man nooks weird cousin set up shop next to crannys
@wispy estuary thanks for the answer, it looks real cool :)
Any ideas for what I should do with this area behind the trees? My island is pretty chill, I don’t have it super mega decorated. I’ve already got a couple parks/sitting areas and a small coffee shop
thanks @sly brook
@blazing basin this is my Ables kinda compacted 
@hidden relic you should create a picnic area 🙂 or just a little bench for your villagers to relax.
@halcyon mural thank youu sm for the answer 😊
np! Hoped it helped a little bit : P I’m still working on mine
@limber crater white
@blazing basin here’s my ‘shopping district’
Does anyone have like a small french garden?
@blazing basin my nooks and ables are on 2 different tiers, and i have a small plant shop between them~
im thinking of doing a spirited away island any ideas
@dense quail try searching on youtube !! ive seen a few awesome ghibli inspired island tours on there that you can reference
moonbeam
Just spent an hour transferring all of my furniture to a friends island 😦
@lavish flume wonderland, also that sucks that you had to restart 😔
Anyone have a beach that's sparsely/naturally decorated? I've seen really great examples with beach cafe/restuarant/bazaar which are amazing, but i'm trying to go for a more natural look
@gentle flower I might try to do a picnic area near one of my beaches! Thanks for that idea! I think I might fill this with plants and some benches 🤔
@rare mountain it's okay! now that i have a better handle of what i'm doing, i think it's gonna be fun! 🙂
what should i do to my zen area? i have no clue what to do :((
Can I see villager houses with fenced in yards? Trying to get an idea of how big I want mine to be.
does anyone have a video or guide to path designs? like how to manipulate paths into specific ways such as this
@forest fulcrum add kotatsus, bamboo furniture, rock garden furniture
@blazing basin
@limber crater ahh yes! thank you so much! i will!
no problem
Does anyone have example of housing on 2 sides of a cana
@ripe flicker I think those are 2 different paths so they dont connect when right beside one another
Canal
Any ideas for this spot? I wanna make it interesting as it leads to the bridge
Not mine but this randomly came up in my youtube recommendation
@forest fulcrum this is mine!
@queen badger wow that is so amazing!! mind if i take some inspiration?
Of coursee no problemmm!
@queen badger thank you!!
@queen badger that’s so cool do u think u can send more pictures ?
Any jdeas @queen badger ? You seem to have good designs!
Which island is decent
Here are some areas !
does anyone have a video or guide to path designs? like how to manipulate paths into specific ways such as this
@ripe flicker for that one, it looks like you'll wanna fill it all in with arched first and then add the stone on top so it cuts like that
@elfin olive not double south
@elfin olive double south sucks so much. lots of regret
thank you i’ll definitely be taking some inspiration @queen badger
So I’m trying to figure out which fencing is nicest for my board walk! Which is best? The lattice, rope, or the hedge?
Which one is uh double south
@twilit lintel same
Jfc that's a ton of pagodas
@sand knoll i closed off one of my rivers because i didnt know how to use double south rivers properly
@carmine robin do a mixture of lattice and hedge (mostly lattice but place hedge sparsely in between)
@elfin olive all the lefts, the rivers all go the south
I’m so proud of my plaza and path
@elfin olive the left two choices. do NOT choose
Any thoughts on this type of pathway? Feedback is appreciated (ignore the flowers will be moving them eventually)
Alright is there more choices you can get if you restart lol?
@elfin olive I would maybe go with top right
@woven current no problemm!
Alright is there more choices you can get if you restart lol?
@elfin olive yes it's random each time
The only thing that matters when choosing an island is resident services location, river mouths, and not as important, airport location
I mean the top right choice is pretty good the 2 things ppl avoid are doubles douth rivers and resident service near entrance
^^
@fringe thicket I somehow ended up with both of those 💀
@queen badger wowww those pagodas tho
I hv a resident service that was near and it took way more energy to get it to look decent
Alright then ill go with the top right then :)
Depends tho top right has residential service thats far back, some ppl dont like that
When in the game do you get paths?
But should be fine since you can make very nice grand entrances
After kk?
When in the game do you get paths?
@viscid barn after you reach a three star rating and KK Slider preforms his first concert at your island
@carmine robin Lattice!
Alright thank you
@novel furnace thank you so much🥺💫
np 
anyone have ideas for a shopping area ?
@fringe thicket
Double river mouths like this?
@woven current
Yea
Oof
@twilit lintel thank you !
@twilit lintel how do you get those flags, between the stalls? And are they customizable?
I mean like its absolutely fine to hv both i think a lot of ppl just hv a harder time working around it like if it works for you then great
@fallen grove the flags are from pocket camp ; you connect your pocket camp account to your switch? I think? I don't remember how to do it
@fallen grove i got mine from nookazon. but i think they are from pocket camp. and i dont believe they are customizable. they are not catalogable either. so you would need to just buy multiple of them at once i believe.
Thats literally it i just loaded pocket camp for that lol
@fringe thicket I just had to use up 2 bridges right where the rivers meet the beach, so its easy to navigate
Does anyone have an arcade on their island? Need some inspiration.
@fringe thicket Do you need to play thru alot of pocket camp for the flags?
Just through the tutorial pretty simple
@thorny urchin arcade cafe, with an upstairs for meteor showers!
@queen badger how are you so good at design
And honestly its worth it the fortune cookie cart, market decoration and campsite signs r one of the best furnitures
any suggestions on how to improve this small area?
@queen badger dude that’s awesome! 😍
@south imp maybe add some stalls?
Trees?
@limber crater I can't take all the credit, just inspirations and adding my own ideas! >.<
@south imp Definitely needs some sort of greenery. Looks very nice though!
okay! ty all for your suggestions!! definitely will be using them
@south imp bamboo trees, bike, stalls
What am I missing please
what do you use to make the large signs for stall cafes and shops?
simple pannels
does anyone have one i can buy ill pay good bells
@delicate shore tables, fencing ? Craft some frying pans, customise them and put them on the table
How do I improve my pottery area?
Need some inspo for how to use the teacup ride on my island x-x
@swift garden potted plants, maybe customize the stalls so that they're dark wood - that makes the lighter colored pottery pop out more
How do I improve my pottery area?
@swift garden clay furnace🤔
@swift garden hedges!
@swift garden Turn climbing walls around to make it look like walls around the area ^^
All of those are super great ideas!
can i improve this? does the fencing look weird
@steel ridge fencing looks good, pathing can try wooden pathing ?
@steel ridge wood path I agree, maybe break up the fence s also or layer them with trees behind, and flowers infront
In search of some bamboo garden ideas
@south imp Do you mind if I ask where you got the grate cover in this video??
oooo thank u!!
@silver plume
if anyone has neighborhood ideas, i need help!! (:
@queen badger ahh thank you !
No problemmm!
What y’all think of my mini café uwu
cute!
Finished up a little cafe out of Tias house! Too bad she’s nowhere around, it’s usually self service here.
Outside my able sisters
@glossy blade love the pathing!
Anybody got ideas on what is should put on my island?
Entranceeee
@queen badger thank you 
@eager bramble I added a hotel
Thats soo cute 
Here’s my museum if anyone needs inspiration
@eager bramble i had also added like a hotel pool area as well
I already have a pool but that place sounds fantastic!
I want bob so bad I literally made a room like his house 😂
@eager bramble it'll take a long time to complete but I have an european style statue garden
Anyone have some island screenshots of city streets? Kinda on the simpler side? @me
@wise heron u don't have bob?
@sour lake
Do y’all know what differentiates a pond from a river? I thought bodies of water were considered rivers if they’re connected to the sea or waterfalls, but I just terraformed a “pond” with river fish spawning.
I’m struggling with making a crescent moon island
a pond has to be closed on all sides, like a square or a circle
@twilit lintel i love the bamboo partitions in front of the waterfall, really adds texture.
should i get rid of this graveyard? the villagers moved out so it doesn't fit anymore, i'm thinking a greenhouse area here? idk 😔 my island is japanese/tropical themed
@wise heron amd ohh i was asking bc my friend has bob she's trying to get rid of
which one? top right looks ok but is it better to have the RS far or close to the airport?
better to have it far
@hybrid bane far away for a nice entrance
@thorny urchin arcade cafe, with an upstairs for meteor showers!
@queen badger
this is so COOL!!!!
Could u please share ur layout if it's okay 🙏🏼
i say top right one!
Although a close one can constrain your creativity slightly to make it easier to decide what to do lol
tbh top right has the best layout though despite the fact that the RS is close
@steel ridge I dont wanna spam more pictures of mine, but if you scroll up a bit you'll see a lot of pics of my island! Japanese zen themed !
Old vs new entrance 😌💅
it's not much but pretty 5am vibes in my town rn
ok I’ll go top right thanks guys ☺️
My res services is 6 tiles away from my airport and I actually like it that cloae
Old vs new entrance 😌💅
@wise heron
the improvement we all need 🤩
Uwu @elder zealot
@elder zealot can do
Any help on making this island more crescent shaped?
carve out some of the top and bring the upper tip in
@limber crater kk
10:00 am vibes at nooks
anybody have any tips on how to make terraforming look nice
Here's the layout @elder zealot I kept it pretty basic!
Anyone got a easy-ish not too hard thing i can do on my island?
making a library or campsite is pretty easy!
i'm a starter and i don't know how to make my island look good at all
@eager bramble
Here's the layout @elder zealot I kept it pretty basic!
@AWobblyJelly#9351
tysm!!
basic yet elegant 🤩
what is that?
@storm ermine you can get inspo by watching island tours on youtube!
Mini cafe uwu @eager bramble
looking to visit someones almost fully terraformed/finished island for some inspiration! please help
oo cool
can anyone send some inspiration for resident areas? i wanna put my villagers' homes in a grid style but i wanna see some examples before i start working on it
i'm mid transformation. do you think i should have all the houses together to make it look more like a neighborhood?
I have the double rivers as well. I just divided my neighborhood in half
i think it looks nice split up like that
This is a glimpse at what my neighborhood looks like (you can see the layout on the map in the corner)
are you going for a more city layout or a more natural layout
Suburbs
Garden and library
i actually did half of my villagers in a neighborhood and the other half scattered naturally
that's a very vague question lol
i expanded my fortune teller spot into a witchy type of market
I really really need help finding a good place for a town square on my island. Can anyone help me out?
Does anybody have any inspo for a park (like fountain and bench area) in front of their residents services? And like an entrance? 😊
Anyone know how i can make this area less bland
@wooden patrol here’s my entrance!
@wooden patrol
@wet ore @wise heron Tysm 🥺
Ur welcome uwu
Your welcome! Hope that helps
@woven drift benches, popcorn, candy machine, a lot of things, vending machines , lampposts
@queen badger ight thanks
Anyone have any ideas for my island I just starting
Come visit my 5 star island fr ideas
@neon rapids ok I'll dm you
ignore the paths that was for correct spacing, does this look weird
Not at all
So happy with how these areas turned out. 🥰
i’m trying to move around my villagers, anyone have any inspo with what they did with backyards/neighborhoods/etc
What should I do around this area , its like the center area of my neighborhood
My neighborhood but I didnt do backyards and stuff I wanted it to be one big community and my girls seem to love it (thinking about moving em around possibly at a way later date but not atm)
does anyone have any inspo for around/in front of resident services?
@nimble elk i put two villagers houses together for each yard (they’d share) and pretty much decorated them with whatever they’re interests are
i made my houses one space apart near my entrance for more room
@wanton prawn you can’t go wrong with decorating with flowers! i have the same amount and kind of flower in rows on both sides of rs if you like that idea
Which fence should I do wooden or stone for at
hi guys, what's the best way to build a deck of your house is on a cliff? here's my map, and I'm trying to get the picture of my house but it's not uploading to Twitter for some reason
^^ @wanton prawn i agree! maybe statues too
Anyone have any ideas for what to put here?
I kind of want to change this up but idek how to get down there lol
@cobalt patrol get down where? i think remove the fence and terraform some ground around the flowers?
Its surrounded by water and its a level down
Some favorite places of mine on my island
@molten finch i would say any good outdoor lamps like nova lights or soft serve lamps on each side, cafe themed stalls, or palm trees if that’s the vibe
okay here's my house, any ideas for a deck?
@zealous sinew ooo okay thank you!
yes I'll be getting rid of some flowers, probably a lot tbh, but right now I need ideas more than anything
@molten finch no problem! happy designing 
@brittle moss i think iron garden furniture would look nice with the wooden path underneath
anyone reading this i hope your island turns out how u want it! don't compare to other islands, urs is unique and you can always change it up how you like! don't stress ε(*´・ω・)з💕💙💗
Can I ask for some help!! Any ideas how I can decorate / design this area? it’s a plot of land surrounded by water. I’m intending to place 4 diagonal bridges on the 4 sides.
Thinking of a garden but I need some inspo
@steel ridge well said I feel the same way
I'm open to criticisim, I know it's nothing cool as some people's, but I'm still pretty new
@zealous sinew thanks! right now I essentially only have an idea of the aesthetic that I want, essentially rustic but welcoming and not redneck-y if that makes sense
@limpid notch put the fountain in the center, since it's autumn on your island, add whites, oranges, and reds (I personally prefer tulip colors)
@limpid notch with what your planning I think a nice flower spot would look good... like a fountain and 2 benches with some flowers around it in flower beds... maybe flex your favorite hybrids!!
@limpid notch a zen garden would look good! u could always make it a rock garden and spawn ur rocks there 💙💕
@brittle moss best advice i can give is take your time and make it you
also look at a lot of furniture that fits your aesthetic for inspo
@jolly flicker it looks very nice!! Maybe add some beach chairs later otherwise it's very cute and simple I like it
yeah, I'm not totally sure which sets I want besides iron garden, ironwood, and wooden
Ahh thank yall for the advice!! ❤️
@fierce night thankyou! I will definitely try and hunt some down <3
@brittle moss i think any rattan furniture like the chair, stool, and table would look nice, that works inside and outside
Np! I'm happy to offer advice to anyone
BV7P5 come visit my 5 star island
Anyone can share a yard layout that doesn't have a bunch of houses near them? I'm planning my houses and I need creativity on how they would look, like a yard 7x5 or something.
@jolly flicker your island is literally perfect I love it so much
BV7P5 come visit my 5 star island
@neon rapids OK I goooo
everyone's island is perfect compared to mine
@woven drift add more context on the 2nd tier cliff behind you
@zealous sinew your too kind 🤗 thabkyou <3
I really really wanna make a fancy gilded age symmetrical style town like this but the items needed and the architecture just don’t exist ;-;
something else I need help with? what should I have generally for each section of my island? I know I want the section where the airport is to be a commerce section, here's a map again
@woven drift you can always use white street lamps, custom marble pathing, buy a great statue and terraform a small hill/mountain to put it on. As for decoration, try finding antique style furniture or furniture with white accents. You can also use simple panels and silos to mimic dome structures!
Ty for the ideas. Saving for future reference 
LF finished/almost finished islands i can visit for inspiration! doesn’t have to be 5 stars. i want 2 see something that youre proud of
Some of my best parts of my island uwu
can i see your best villager home(s)
Ignore the yellow lilies. Any suggestions that I should add to this entrance.
what else can i add to this little corner of tangy & merengue’s yard?
Orange trees lol for tangy @dim copper
@dim copper a small pond maybe?
Can i ask if anyone is willing to share pics of your garden area?? Looking for inspo 🙂
Did some more work on my boardwalk tonight and wanted to share in case anyone is looking for inspo! The boardwalk is hawaiian themed and ends with a luau on the beach 🙂
so nice!!!
@cedar pike thank you 🥺😊😊
Love how detailed it is. Nicely done!!
Can you not grow bamboo directly next to houses? Im decorating Deli's yard and wanted to put some off the side.
And if not can I grow it next to fences?
Does anyome have some cool marketplace area ideas that would fit into a zen island with lots of stone and plant details?
Literally pave the area with dark dirt
@dim copper maybe some cute orange/apple trees or a swinging bench
can i visit some islands im just bored
@sterile bronze fences can be put right next to trees. trees just have to have a space between them and structures, ledges, other trees, etc.
Ahh ok! Thank you!
hey! does anyone have a japanese style island with a japanese entrance. i’m looking for some inspo! tysm
growing trees have different rules though, like you can’t grow a tree a space away from another, it has to be transplanted there after being grown elsewhere
could i see someone's minimap? i'm looking for river ideas bc i flattened my island & don't know how to make it look natural now lmao
What color phone box should I put here?
White?
brown?
i need some advice. should i do a japanese city or a lighter more natural island? im not sureee
red so It stands out
Lol whats ur default color just use that and if u dont like it then trade around
i’m not sure how i feel about the brick fencing, also the white drink machine is going to become a black one w a black one next to it.
@south imp i personally think you'd have more items to play around with when doing natural island
Try Iron stone fence?
maybe
Or brick floor if u want the walls
do y’all round out your cliff corners when terraforming or are you a psychopath
I keep all my corners squared
I dont round unless theres a reason to cos its hard to put furniture and pathing
@void laurel Ido
I have to round it otherwise it annoys me. But then again I am going for natural look
@hazy ravencurves seem pretty natural to me
LOOKING FOR ISLAND TERRA FORMING AND DESIGN HELP
I'll pay in 100+ NMTS. I want to see your island design, and also you must be able to help based on visual designs I send you. I don't understand map layouts very well. Prefer someone who can design using 3D island designer. vs. Beautiful island designer.
I'm really stuck and struggling to even know where to move things or where to start. I'll also need help with decorating ideas.
Plz dm if you're able to help. Especially if you're someone who has helped others design their island
If u want natural round if not then dont for convenience
Working on my entrance, but I feel like somethings missing, any advice?
All the ppl w short entrances cos RS is too near 😦
My front lawn. What do ya'll think?
My front lawn. What do ya'll think?
@hazy raven I LOVE IT!! ITS SO FAIRY TALE!!
I chose a bad layout, my RS is right there 😭
Ty!
@sinful haven I really like it!!! I know the feeling of having a close RS. I'm jealous of how yours is nearly parallel to your airport.
@sinful haven same )):
@sinful haven maybe some bushes? Or items but I can't say which because it depends on your theme
@wet ore ty! I wasn’t sure how else to design the entrance other than to put waterfalls 😅
I like what a lot of ppl did w the wondering stone paths that realign you to the center of the RS
@hazy raven I might try out bushes, thanks for the idea!
I like the turtle
Come visit my 5 star island for ideas
Dodo code: BV7P5
Friend Code: SW-2267-9474-4312
Built this little area for my jock villagers. Anyway to improve upon this?
@small sail add a water cooler, barbell and kettlebell
@small sail climbing wall
@sinful haven love your entrance!!
hey! does anyone have an entrance with an extremely close RS. mine is 8 squares away from the airport and it directly in line with it. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
i dont have a climbing wall
@south imp could I see a picture of it?
I need some ideas my island is kinda bland my dodo code is h9www if anyone wants to come check it out
@small sail i have one
How does this look guys?
THATS SO PRETTY!
I can hear that picture
I need hedge fences for a build and I can't find any
Shshsshshshshhshshshahahshsh haha and thanks @rough tulip!
if you're looking for feedback, i would say put an arrangement of flowers and items on the ledge thing but yeah its gorgeous 🥺
NO FEEDBACK! UGHHH (I’m kidding)
Thinking of resetting my island for a better layout ☹️ I’m stupiddd into symmetry and my rs is crooked by like one block to the airport 😭 anybody have any gorgeous asymmetrical late outs that can give me hope?!
@azure saffron hedges were a mayday item from nook may 1-7?
I reset to pick an island where resident services is very far from the airport
I wish I did but my island is seriously poopoo
@lucid orbit i got the game May 9 and I have hedges
Leif will give you the hedge diy after he visits a few times. Even if you missed earth day
What about rivers I know people have their opinions on river placement?
does anyone have any entrances with close RS i’m looking for some inspo!
@south imp how close?
im tryna landscape and soleil is right in the way- i think shes protesting lmao
@upper maple a natural looking island helps with asymmetry- or a historical town/city so imperfections are the beauty
I hope some of my villagers sit in the spot I made because I took me so so long, it took me 10 minutes (it’s a joke I know it’s not that long)
@woven drift mine is 8 squares away from the airport and right in line with it
I guess is all about re arranging space into making asymmetry looks perfect
Besides the asymmetry I’m wanting to reset because I feel quilty for tt 😅 do you guys tt?
I do all the time
I TT all the time lol

My resident services is super far and it's so nice because I can just do whatever.
I TT for construction when I want to move buildings and stuff
Opinions?
@south imp then i can't really help you, mine is very asymmetrical.
My resident services is super far and it's so nice because I can just do whatever.
@gentle saffron WOAAHHHH yours is almost in centre thats sick-
Hey guys, I have this little area and I'm really not sure what to do with it but I want to fix it up.
It needs to stay with a stone theme, any suggestions?
@gentle saffron stop bragging lmaooo i’m jealous
