sweet dome
#

my resident service is near the dodo entrance 🙂 which I like it that way idk why

south imp
#

@sweet dome would you be able to send a pic of your entrance for inspo?

gentle saffron
#

There are people who don't like resident services being in the center because it means you cant build a mountain town as easily

inland fable
small sail
#

If only my ResServ was perfectly centered with the airport

boreal briar
#

Ideas for sitting area outside of museum I have tons of space infront of museum

upper maple
#

Can you guys post your maps? They’re cool to see and give inspo 🙂

dense star
#

Anyone got plaza ideas

sweet dome
#

@south imp Im currently going to sleep but honesty you dont have to look at mine 🙂 I bet anyone can make an artwork out their RS location

long rose
#

Any villager front yard inspo???

woven drift
#

Dark12315 do you have a theme?

upper maple
polar blade
rare mountain
#

i neeeeeeed some inspo for a shopping area with nooks cranny and ables sisters

dense star
#

@woven drift how important is it

south imp
#

@sweet dome haha ty i’m trying. goodnight!!

dense star
#

How many inclines and bridges can a island have

south imp
#

@dense star 8 of each

lucid orbit
#

8 of each

dense star
#

Damn son max creativity

small sail
swift otter
gentle saffron
#

8 only sounds like a lot until you try to make it easy for traffic to flow and then suddenly you ran out of inclines and don't even have that many cliffs

woven drift
#

@dense star i would say really, bc if you have a theme you're intrestet in, you can build the whole island abaut it. It makes many things easier.

rough tulip
#

8 only sounds like a lot until you try to make it easy for traffic to flow and then suddenly you ran out of inclines and don't even have that many cliffs
@gentle saffron wait is there an incline limit? CRAP

lucid orbit
#

i used 7 for my residential area alone

woven drift
dense star
#

I mean my island name is paradise but now it’s mixed

manic lantern
#

damn 7

south imp
#

@lucid orbit that’s a mood lol

lucid orbit
#

its teired!

#

ease of travel is important to me!

manic lantern
swift otter
#

omg why so many profiles

gentle saffron
#

I need to take a screenshot of my map tomorrow when my incline finishes

manic lantern
#

I use the houses as restaurants. cafe, etc xD

woven drift
#

I mean my island name is paradise but now it’s mixed
@dense star i would just say dicide a theme or 2-3 miced and then go with the flow. Or ask other person's with the same theme^^

manic lantern
#

my best advice would be don't be so focused on how your map looks

swift otter
#

I use the houses as restaurants. cafe, etc xD
@manic lantern makes sense. i’m prolly gonna do the same.

woven drift
#

@manic lantern me too, one is for a japanese massage type place

gentle saffron
#

Yeah your map could look absolutely awful of you use a lot of the in game paths but your island might actually look amazing

swift otter
#

@manic lantern me too, one is for a japanese massage type place
@woven drift oh? ph1lBIGPOG may i see?

harsh dawn
#

i was gonna make a japanese city theme but it turned into naturey cozy city lol

rough tulip
#

i just sorta dot the stone path around like stepping stones and it shows up like that on the map- its so cute

dense star
#

Also I want like a rural type of area

gentle saffron
#

I don't have a theme yet because I've only really worked on my entrance and I designed it to be adaptable to other seasons

manic lantern
#

having other players is a great way to make a realistic village

woven drift
#

@swift otter sure

hollow bramble
#

HEY QUESTION: Planning my entrance with a close residential services, how close can I put water to the plaza of the residential services?

dense star
#

Can a few people come to my island like cyan senpai syrupn

swift otter
#

do any of you guys have any pictures of an island entrance like an airport entrance (kinda like mine but a lot less ... crappy.)

rough tulip
#

do any of you guys have any pictures of an island entrance like an airport entrance (kinda like mine but a lot less ... crappy.)
@swift otter YOURS IS SO NICE-

swift otter
#

eh not really (it’s not done yet but i’m not a huge fan of it so far :c)

gentle saffron
rough tulip
#

I won't be able to come but honestly the difference between drab and fab is often the amount of decorations you throw at something. Compare these two
@gentle saffron they both look gorgeous to me tbh

south imp
#

ahhhh i can’t decide on a theme i’ve went from: japanese island, natural island, city and now i want a tropical one i need help!!! what would you guys pick??

dense star
#

@gentle saffron they both are beautiful

harsh dawn
#

@swift otter I dont have one but try surrounding ur entrance with cliffs and waterfalls so behind the fence isnt just blank

manic lantern
south imp
#

omg the AOT jacket is so cool

dense star
#

Yeah that’s pretty neat

lapis temple
#

AOT.......

manic lantern

#

Fwlws is the code if anyone has entrance ideas or anything just tell me I’ll write it down

south imp
#

i’ll come over now!

dense star
#

Ok also the the magic is at the top of the map

normal oak
#

Can I see your guys' entrance? My creativity has been so low lately, I can't come up with anything

south imp
#

i feel like 90% of the discord is entrances. why are they so goddamn hard to design lmaooo

normal oak
#

I think its because they set the tone for the rest of the island? Not sure though

woven drift
#

I want to make a chill bamboo forest. Has anyone a idea? Or did it himself?

manic lantern
#

double waterfalls always a good way to go

woven drift
dense star
#

I want a lot of shiny things and neon things on my island like the mushroom lamp palm tree lamps and giant stars

near lotus
#

@woven drift why was I pinged-

manic lantern
#

when you ping the wrong person LOL

atomic ruin
#

Hi I desperatley need nooks and crannys ideas and ables ideas!

swift otter
#

how we feeling abt these fences instead?

also it was the wrong dominic they meant to ping me lol

near lotus
#

Ohhh Lmao also that looks amazing

swift otter
#

Hi I desperatley need nooks and crannys ideas and ables ideas!
@atomic ruin austin john plays nooks cranny is adorable! his ables is ok too but not my tastes

normal oak
#

@swift otter thanks for the idea! dw i wont steal it; I was also thinking of something similar, but you reinforced the idea in my head

manic lantern
#

@swift otter the fence is better because it matches the flooring more

dense star
#

It looks better with a different color flooring @swift otter

atomic ruin
#

@swift otter Ty!

swift otter
#

wow 4 pings in a row i’m famous
but the blue drink machine is gonna be black too w the sports drink design

dense star
#

I like contrast

swift otter
#

i’ll test w terracotta

woven drift
#

So does anyone know anything about a bamboo forest?

normal oak
#

nope. I lack enough creativity; a bamboo forest is next to impossible for me

swift otter
woven drift
#

Oww thanks i'm gonna check it out^^

#

What would go good here?? ( a picnic didn’t look right )
@zenith harness a park or lil food stand area

#

@zenith harness maybe the able sisters or nooks cranny.

silver sorrel
#

it's time to purchase an absurd amount of simple panels

@safe rock use this design as a path !
and i know it’ll be a pain in the ass but maybe move a few of your island rocks into there?

I'm creating a 'garden city' on my island and it's separated into divisions like city blocks and i wanted ideas for new city garden blocks. I've already done a money tree in a plaza as pictured, as well as a riverside garden and of course I did a zen themed city block. You can dm with ideas too. Thx!

pls help me how do i make this better 😭 i want the fencing natural like that but it doesn’t feel cohesive
@vast tinsel the front looks gorgeous tbh- try to put some trees n stuff in the back to see if that helps aa

austere heath
#

@vast tinsel you can always try the simple wooden fence. Just enough class with still a little sass.

swift otter
#

pls help me how do i make this better 😭 i want the fencing natural like that but it doesn’t feel cohesive
@vast tinsel hoping these help!

rough tulip
#

i think the iron gate fence might also look rather nice?

vast tinsel
#

thanks so much i’ll try messing with it a little bit!

wooden patrol
#

Maybe not the place to ask but does anybody have a 5 star island they like a lot that they’d be willing to let me tour for inspo? 🥺

swift otter
#

@vast tinsel add some weeds, not too manny obviously but they add a nice and natural looking touch!

Kinda miscalculated and theres no turning back but, which is better? flowers near the store side/walkway beside the river or walkway beside store/flowers beside river?

#

@sharp stump probably unpopular opinion but I prefer shop side xD

@sharp stump i would say put the flowers by the river, and walkway by the store

@sharp stump i would say flowers by the river, in Nook colours!

@drifting light if i were you, i would move some of the villager houses to the east and southeast side of RS, and put the rest somewhere just north of RS.
Having villagers close to RS means you can see them hanging out in the town square more!

@south imp u can make some cliffs

#

what chair and table combo would look best here? I’m having a hard time figuring out

fringe thicket
#

@dapper ginkgo i think the brown rattan chair and table will look nice

past veldt
#

@fallen drum could be because you’re trying to place a bridge at the end of a cliff... never tried it myself but pretty sure you can’t place any construction too close to the cliff edge as well

fallen drum
#

@past veldt Ah okay I see, ty Ill give it a change now

well i have basically come to the conclusion that creating sandy's treedome in animal crossing is not possible. Or at the very least, not possible to make look good or at all like a dome

#

what chair and table combo would look best here? I’m having a hard time figuring out
@dapper ginkgo honestly wood-block might look good or just go with one color for both table and chairs

@dapper ginkgo use the Rattan round table

#

I just recently unlocked terraforming and i dont really know what to do, what should i do first?

@past veldt Ah okay I see, ty Ill give it a change now
@fallen drum Yep, that's it. Place it one spot next to the cliff and you got it.

@rugged rain Yep, just placed it! Thanks guys 🙂

just a side restaurant thing by the beach @past veldt

#

@green topaz a little advice from learning it the hard way, don’t try to change your layout too much cause it’s stressful and take so much time lol

fringe thicket
#

Does anyone hv housing example w canals

past veldt
#

@dapper ginkgo hmm do you need to use that table? The rattan set has its own table and I think it’ll be nice for a little restaurant/cafe area on the beach

rugged rain
#

I just recently unlocked terraforming and i dont really know what to do, what should i do first?
@green topaz Just try out a few things you think are cool. I've been doing that for weeks, building up, keeping it for a while and tearing it down. Now I finally know what I want.. I think 😋

fringe thicket
#

rattan mini table is a bit tall and the low table is 2x1 so its longer

timber depot
#

I have a pretty island all shops open just need ppl to water flowers dm for code. :)

@past veldt yeah I think I’ll switch the table to rattan. I just liked it cause of the table cloth but it fits with nothing and it’s too tall

@green topaz id say its best to choose a theme first, i played around with a bunch of ideas but i couldve saved a lot of money & time if i just picked a theme first and then terraformed

past veldt
#

@dapper ginkgo I don’t have that table so idk if it comes in a set. But if it is, you could try looking for the chairs from the set

I suggest having more green mums cos its the only green flower and it’ll honestly complete the rainbow better @fossil lion

@fossil lion I think the gold looks nice

thanks guys!

fringe thicket
#

@fossil lion i think if you want a rainbow i’d suggest sectioning each area as designated color and filling them up w flowers of that color, you might have to double up on some but i think it’ll look rlly nice and also make it so your rainbow is evenly spread

#

Like theres so many flowers i do t think you would even notice theres doubles

to further elaborate; they look like you put them there because it was an empty space

#

As in the fringes arent transparent they are filled w color of the wood planks

If you use the island designer to lay a custom floor, you can put a qr floor over it

@light dock you cannot, unfortunately

Its two custom designs so they cant be layered

yeah they can, you use the custom path thing from the nook shop

You can layer custom over the game's pathing

But that wooden deck is a custom design itself

You cant layer custom designs on top of another custom design the rug is just designed with the wood color where its supposed to be transparent

They hv a separate code for just the rug no wooden deck

Can someone give me some pictures of their neighborhoods? Also pictures of a small waterfall would be so helpful !! ☺️☺️

@woven drift I mean, all the colours together look nice, im just confused of what it is hahahaha, grave, stonehenge, shower and candy and windmill lol but aesthetically its pleasing

@steady brook My suggestion would be the armor cause it works with the villager and the house color palette! I think it's really cool you put unique things in front of your houses. I'll def use that for inspo since all I have are flowers by my houses lol

@fringe thicket Do you have an example?

theres examples in the pinned post but Im just wondering if I do it for all of the villager if it will take up too much space

@spring junco I'd swap out the lights and roughen up the cliffs. Double down on the ancient aesthetics with the stone circle and stone stools.

#

mush lamps or something, make it all mystical 🙂

#

It's a really awesome idea!

woven drift
#

@fringe thicket It shouldn’t be too big. It’s a decent size!

spring junco
#

not sure what u meant by roughing up the cliffs, although itd be hard to remove them since theyre basically a path that leads to this area

#

since this is a secret area in the middle of a forest-maze

versed wadi
#

No keep them, but the area is very square, make some parts of it convex, others concave. Make them feel a bit more natural

Hi guys!

So I’ve been struggling on how to place my residents homes. I tried to first put them vertically, but now I’m attempting to put them next to each other (like a normal suburban area) and I’m just so stuck.
I feel like 3 homes a row is too much space being wasted. There’s so much more I do want to do with my island.

Do you guys have any pictures I could possibly get ideas off of? Any tips and tricks would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I literally can't suggest anything all my houses are scattered hdhdjf

@delicate flax condensed neighborhoods help if you want to put other stuf, if you want to make your island feel smaller put buildings and houses closer together if you want a bigger feeling spread out buildings and such

@sinful haven maybe a (fake) statue, some more flowers, signs :)

@devout birch I’d you really hate it you can flatten it

@devout birch if you don't want to go through the pain of resetting your game and resetting everything including getting everything all over again go for it, but just take time and education and remodel. i remolded today and it was worth it because i was very close to resetting. it takes hours but again it's your island, if you don't like something change it 🙂 make it perfect to ur liking

Honestly I dont even know, I have thought about it but I can't think of anything that I would really like. Like I guess just like, pretty, like not an actual theme but where every place looks like an actual liveable island

@vagrant wolf it looks stunning <3 love how that cliff overlooks the rs

#

@woven drift we can't rlly help u then :c continue looking at inspo on yt or on this channel and when u have an idea u can start terraforming

#

I guess, I just really don't think I even want a theme so I guess Ill just start with my rivers

#

@woven drift You do not have to have a theme, just go with the look you like. I started with my entrance, then continued with my museum and now I'm working on my resident service center. I work on my island like on a puzzle. Either it works or not, you cannot do anything wrong :)

woven drift
#

Yeah, that does make sense, I just really am worried like Ill make my entrance in the designer an for it to look really bad in the game. ( i litteraly almost typed out "irl" instead of "in game")

#

Does anyone have a cottage core island? I'm kind of going for an island vibe like that and I was wondering if I should plant a lot of pine/cedar trees to fit that theme.

brittle isle
#

i wouldn't rlly work out plans in the designer except if ur doing designs. just start terraforming and if you don't like the look of it you can change it

#

@woven drift That's a good idea! If you put all the homes in a cute little neighbour hood then you can theme that area later.

What do you guys do with these awkward spaces ? like should I just terraform around it and leave it like this or should I terraform on it ?

@fathom nest that looks really nice! throw in some greenery and it will be perfect.

ohhh if you want a 4 width river and don't want to change a waterfall, maybe create another waterfall and have it merge? then it would make sense if the river is wider hehe

fathom nest

hmtrue or do you think it’ll just be better to leave it? i just wanna put a bridge over it but i’m a little tight on space

#

@fathom nest see the pin message there are a few tips on it

#

if you want a wider river, why not make it five and make the two waterfalls two wide?

unique pond
#

@fathom nest there are some places on my island where i desperately want a bridge but don't want to widen my river. i widen it only at the bridge part, then chisel the river away as close as possible and add bushes/fencing to make up for the difference. not sure if that bothers you but it works for me

@drifting light this is my entrance. My resident services is literally at the doorstep. You can see it on the right lol. Just kind of make a winding path and add flowers and trees and diys along it. Maybe add some little waterfalls as you walk out of the airport.
I still need to add a few blue hyacinths and I’m going to be putting lily of the valleys on the cliff parts at the front when I finally get five stars

Hi guys, I’m trying to decide if to make a tropical island or a purple island lol, can anyone help me decide? Thanks 😊

spiral island
#

@gritty comet I think purple would look really cool! Purple flowers are a little hard to get but totally worth

woven drift
#

I would actually choose a tropical island! I think that would give a lot more creativity and inspiration for ideas with terraforming.

#

But definitely either could look good!

#

Okay thank you so much both of you 😊

spiral island
#

I feel like there arent many purple furniture/lamps either, so it might be a bit hard to do. My current theme is blue and I'm quite fortunate that theres a lot of blue furniture

#

Does anyone have recommendations because my town hall is really close to my airport so I don’t really know what to do for my entrance

if you're able to do tropical + purple that could be super unique and different as well!

@hushed shell an idea I did back in the day was make a “shaped” river I made a pixel art bunny head, it was cute back when I was going for a similar vibe

@hushed shell I suggest a lot of natural looking hills and whatnot? also if you want to get the forest-y vibe maybe you could spread there houses out? ik that’s really expensive but it could make your island look really good

So, big question. Do you rotate your streetlamps so that the light section all looks the same or do you leave them random?
The street lamps on RS have an unobstructed window but the ones you can place can be rotated to either have an obstructed or unobstructed window of the lamp

@storm bluff I love it so much!!

#

@kindred lake wow, I had no idea! 😮 i will have to look up ar mine with more attention and see how rotating them looks!
