can i pls see the way someone organized their villager housing area? i’m at a loss
@obtuse minnow I made little island for all my villager houses. This isn’t my island but I used the idea for islands.
Can anyone tell me if this is to much? I am going to be putting nooks cranny next to this
I like it!@split spire
@split spire No it’s great 👍
looks fine, sometimes having a bit too much decoration is worth it
Current island layout ideas: Orange circles are parks and small random areas, and pink squiggles are trees and flower areas UwU
UwU I’m trying to get a layout before I do anything else to my island, I already have the huge blob on the right side terraformed.
Thank you guys’
mhm
Anyone know if we cut trees if they have designs on them anymore?
how did you get the cool circle effect with the centre island in a circle it looks really good
I'm at 525 and still don't have a layout
@pliant hazel SAME I'm clocking it at around 600 hours I thought I was the only one
Wdym by design?@split spire
how did you get the cool circle effect with the centre island in a circle it looks really good
@woven drift i did 4 floors shape like a square then after you go to the corners and it will round them out
realllllyyy, I've spent about 400 hours on it. my layout is nowhere near done, but I def have a start to it
Wdym by design?@split spire
@pliant hazel NL they would have pictures on the trees after you cut them i wasnt sure if NH did that too
600?! I thought I had much hours haha, at least Ik I'm not alone@hard elk
Oh forgot about that, they don't have it in nh@split spire
Got some free space here that idk what to put
You’ll have to do the hard edges first and then go in and just smooth them out when terraforming. I’m used to playing Minecraft a lot so doing it by cubes is easier for me lol
how did you get the cool circle effect with the centre island in a circle it looks really good
@woven drift
I just googled for a pixel circle calculator, you can choose the size with it too lol
I used to hate my island, but the more time i spent on this channel, the better it got!
Yeah, same here@white heath
Looking for island inspo. Going for a stone look. Would anyone let me look around?
What kind of incline should i build for a diner/resturant entrance?
@mild musk what did you use to make the grid?
Happy island maker!
White Plank maybe?@turbid wing
https://eugeneration.github.io/HappyIslandDesigner/ @errant cedar
me: finally decides to start terraforming my island
my villagers:
And you can always go back to the site and it won’t erase ur progress UwU. I’ve left my layout sitting for a few weeks XD
Ooo I felt that haha@woven drift
coco still hasn’t moved from her spot and i’m about to lose my mind i swear 😭😂
I usually give them a little um push...
Just a little though, so they don't get mad
Guys help! I don’t know what to put in Freya’s yard!!
Who's Freya again, that pinkish wolf?
Hey y'all. can I move a house onto a path or can I only put a house on grass?
The path will be removed if you put a house on one@copper quiver
yes
dang... I wanted to give flora a beachy house
Idk her really@warm mantle
now it's just going to be a beachy house on an island of grass
Something like this?@copper quiver
mhmmm, okay anybody else? thx for kinda helipng lolll @pliant hazel
I'd have to see a higher angle to see if the house is actually on the custom path
Girl I—-
Am i able to ask for flowers here?
how do y'all make sure y'alls houses line up properly?
Paths or dig holes
No problem haha@warm mantle
It looks like that @copper quiver
thanks, friend
This is my island entrance
I think I made a mistake. moved a house because I wanted to start giving villagers more space to decorate, but now it's a challenge of moving all the other houses in a way that makes sense. but I suppose that's the fun of design
Took me a good couple weeks but I think my museum entrance is almost just how I want it 🥺
i feel like i used way too much space on my residential area and i shoudnt have used more than 2 acres on it. thoughts and suggestions? :(
dope musuem
Omg I love how it looks, so mesmerizing@rapid pulsar
personally i think its cool
what theme should i make my island?
I'm trying to do a medieval themed island. Just finished my farm and orchard today
cottage core is the most popular
If you want a smaller residential area then you can do so lol@vast crystal
i was thinking of doing a cottagecore island but i haven’t seen anyone with an island i can visit for inspo
yeah but idk how to place it and stuff
can someone help me where to put my housings at? give me ideas please !!
@glacial lily but take somethin u like say magic and put your own spin on it
My fairy garden entrance!
@vagrant cargo i did to sorta close neigborhoods to space out everything
aw crap.... today's hot items are bamboo... I need more bamboo
I just got terraforming, and realized my airport almost lines up with my plaza, but not quite >: (
@pine magnet i was thinking of making a huge hill like a coldesac
if you have a coldesac you may want to put on some trousers
whats a coldesac
Does anyone have advice /tips reconstructing my island. I did a bunch of work today and ended up hating it.
@vagrant cargo if thats what you want to do then go for its your island do what u want 😀
whats a coldesac
@faint whale a road that ends. So on one end it just has houses in a circle (in real life) cul de sac
aight
Cul De Sac a street, lane, etc., closed at one end; blind alley; dead-end street.
Grove street from gta is One for example @faint whale
@mortal kettle i do lots of work and end up hating it. i suggest just watch videos of other and get inspo. i suggest tagback he does lots of island tours then give it your own twist
@pine magnet I watch him!! Thank you. One question did you flatten your whole island to start
does anyone have a neighborhood on their island? pls i need inspo 🥺
Demolished my orchard and turned into a overgrown marble garden, any critques?
That's beautiful
@mortal kettle i did flaten most of it. then i moved all my buildings to the beach although its nor neccesary. i just did it for convenience. i just flattened half of my island
That looks amazing, so beautiful@soft plaza
Okay thank you so much!
your welcome. good luck revamping your island
Maybe replace the shell arch with a stone Arch, but customize it to the mossy one@soft plaza
@soft plaza gorgeousssssss
I need opinions— I want to redo my island. Should I?
Wdym by redo, restart or just flatten everything?
Flatten out
@woven drift dont. i suggest flattening most of it if your unhappy with your island and moving the buildings to the beach.
Yeah, go for it you might regret it tho
ppl seem to like flattening
Does anyone have any examples of nice entrances?
I just need to start blank- I won’t put the buildings on the beach though, that’s a waste
before i completely commit to my island could people DM me pictures and tell me their island theme? i want to get a feel for all themes before i commit to cottagecore
it's extremely much work though, cuz you have to build all the cliffs and erlverything, it's not just the removal
I don't really have pictures of my island but I'm trying to do kinda tropical@glacial lily
Cute theme
y'all i need help. I have no idea what to do with all this open space, idk where to connect my rivers. im stuckkkk ideas very much appreciated.
what should i add to apollo’s/muffy’s yard? i’m gonna add flowers but i wanna know what other items i can add
@sterile elm lol I recently learned ur rivers dont have to connect as long as they have a natural end and beginning
a barbell to make Apollo more buff@dim copper
while im at it any good stone id? plus tips oh how to make areas and river look natural?
does anyone have any south starting river map inspo?
For muffy maybe a butter churn, she's giving me witch vibes and the butter churn is kinda medieval like witches
for anyone that did a cottagecore theme island is it worth all the time it takes
@glacial lily i trying cottagecore and im actually so happy with it. i have barely mde the entrance but im loving the theme
i need a bit of aspace fillers... also? Should I spread the bottom left area out a bit more, so all houses have yards? i c an t spell and i am sorry-
@craggy bluff not sure if this helps but it's what I have so far for my rivers atm:)
left river, right river, or south rivers
looking got map inspo!!! about to tear down and start from scratch 😂
I have right river and I'm pretty happy with it@cold cypress
@craggy bluff both of my rivers are on the south side
Anyone here with look out points, views?
anyone have any ideas for this little area i made?
Can anyone send me inspiration for the entry of islands :)
@gilded fiber a picnic blanket area?
can someone send a pic of that diagonal bridge airport entrance with the mountains
Feels like things are starting to come together.
@opaque sapphire
does anyone else have a park/ nature theme? i need inspo 🥺
A bit simple but this is mine @opaque sapphire
im still trying to think of a name lmao i cant think of anything
Diagonal entrance
what is "cottagecore?"
Looks good! My plaza is really close too my airport but it’s 1 tile off too the right so it triggers me and I need to hide it with a bunch of fancy bushes and stuff for the entrance :(
Now its super rainy when I finally moved all my buildings in houses to better spots.. man
i was @?
Okay um I guess that word is blocked on this server lmao
mine is Porktopia. sadly there no pork. 😕
There are pig villager....
i named mine after the island my grandparents grew up on Heimaey
🤯
Mine is quincy which Is a town ive visited
Beehive area
@remote spindle i believe cottagecore is an aesthetic inspired by simple life and the idea of living in harmony with nature
you can look it up for a better explanation, thats all i know about it
i googled Heimaey. 😍
@lyric kettle thanks! i think that's the direction we're heading on our island. 🤘🏽
Could someone help he with the layout of my island? I reset not to long ago and now just unlocked terraforming again and I don't know what to do, I made a waterfall in the back but I'm not sure if I like it :(
How do people make their island flow so naturally? All my outdoor features feel so rigid and restricted to perfect square and rectangular areas.
Lowkey sad.. finally got red to show up and bought a beautiful statue and I thought blathers would say if it was real or fake and I sadly just donated it to the museum. I'm so bummed
give it palm trees, beaches love palm trees
@copper quiver I have so many palm trees everywhere else.
@novel furnace yeah ive seen that but unfortunately im looking for an island name that can also have a matching character name
Can I see everyone’s campsite designs?

@tribal jolt
It is quite tricky. Try working around rivers, so you dont feel inclined to have rigid sides of areas (like this) notice how the little patio is fit into the space between the road and water, and the water has another area on the other side. They are next to one another, but feel like completely different districts
@woven drift
my campsite is just stuck in the corner with a swing and all the flowers I didn't want to plant anywhere else.
@woven drift
@woven drift
Gettin there UwU 5 villager houses to go and my house area :3
Woah! Can I catalog those beach chairs!! @severe cosmos
The blue house in the corner is my best friends house. In the corner Bc she’s in New York and can’t play 😫
@gentle flower uh sure hol up ill dm you a dodo
Made an orchard today too, I thought it turned out okay
Not mine but I saw this on YouTube and it’s gorgeous
@tribal jolt I think if you can find the right pathing to use throughout your island it will flow naturally!!
My museum entrance 🙂
already shared today but updated these areas further
Which is better?
bottom
I prefer the 2nd one
i like the bottom one
2nd one
Alright thanks!
I'm honestly more concerned with my residents than my campers. is that bad?
Cafe in front of my shops 🙂
campers?
@woven drift not the best i'm still working on it
Jason is here 😳
@gentle flower on second thought im really tired atm, if imma remember i can do it tomorrow its just really late here
Here is my hawaiian themed boardwalk during the day lol 🙂 anyone have some other ideas for stalls? was thinking maybe one for clothing?
@severe cosmos it’s alright 🙂
new house garden finished
@mild musk I would love to see that in the in-game map. That online designer is tricksy
I’ll show you as I do it in game!
I made use of the limited items I had. It ain't much but it's honest work
I’ve already done most of the left side, I’m just adding on and finishing everything else UwU
very nice! always interested in progress. but also that map looks great
Finally some progress T T
Thanks :) decorating is a whole other story, but I like to go bit by bit UwU
lookit all these moons
Each tree and flower and every decoration has to be planned out Bc Ill get stressed if not
my entrance to my island
i’ve been trying to make my island cottage/fairy clue but have no clue where to start. any tips/inspo?
a pink flower field 💐✨
@heady granite mush lamps, flowery grass, hyacinth lamps, butterfly models, mum cushions, garden lanterns, lilly of the valleys, bushes
trees bounty archways +moon chairs
Can people send images of areas to put of a bunch of flowers? I have a ton of flowers that I need to find a use for. Thanks 🙂
everywhere!
Hi guys - any idea why my rocks won’t spawn on the areas with the holes (after destroying the rock next to the hole)?
@spark juniper rocks cant spawn within 4 blocks of resident services

i know from experience, it really sucked to find out
Ohhh but why is the picture above valid but 1 more to the right not valid?
can someone show me there entrances ! I need some ideas !!
@spark juniper because it only counts the building not the brick around it
Omg I have to move this whole area T_T
Anyone have a layout of there orchraid?
yeah that was my reaction, sucked to redo it all @spark juniper
Wait but one more block to the right would be farther away from residential services? Am I missing something?
@spark juniper you need to cover the holes up and make a stone pathing around the holes you want the rocks to spawn, exactly like you’ve done with all the rest
@atomic hatch I did - I just wouldn’t spawn on those two spots :-((
@spark juniper where did your rocks go?
can people post images of their natural flower shops?
What goes in deli’s yard. Lazy monkey
Would anyone happen to have an island with two southern river exits? I’m struggling to work with them and was looking for some inspiration 
What goes in deli’s yard. Lazy monkey
@calm granite I just give my lazies a table with a fruit bowl
Oh ok. But I want to put more in it
Lf Zen garden ideas

Done! I really like people’s shaped and symmetrical islands, but when it comes to stuff like this I hate squares and 90 degree angles 😫 now time to move all houses to the beach and out of the way so I can terraform!

@mild musk
I need beach ideas!!! I have nothing on mind but a sand castle 🏰
I’ll spend the next hour removing all paths and stuff UwU
trying to make this less blocky
Can I see you guys’ Redd area? Thanks!
And finding new path qr codes XD and yeah, playing and terraforming in mc kinda makes me eww about 90 degree angles and stuff just not looking right
any specific items for cattage core ish vibes?
It takes 4 spaces.. why doesn’t it look centered tho?
Flowers! And plants UwU. Butter churn and barrels are also cute @pine magnet
ty will do
Go to nookazon and look around UwU!
It takes 4 spaces.. why doesn’t it look centered tho?
@rocky phoenix the edges end up only being .5 of a block, basically a lot smaller
@floral topaz what’s the dragonfly code?
@rocky phoenix the edges end up only being .5 of a block, basically a lot smaller
@mild musk what do you mean? The edges, of the moon?
Ohh I thought u meant the island
am i like a total idiot or is there Not a way to place flowers in the middle of this table outdoors 
Does anyone have a finished campsite that I could come visit? I’m honestly struggling to design mine rn and could use some tips
my tiki bar wip
@mortal nymph sadly outside no :'c
@storm star the good ol days dump
when does winter start in the southern hem?
Do you think it is a good idea to time skip to the date that makes your island look the best with the theme you are going for? It’s winter in my island but I prefer summer.
/cherry blossoms
@viral maple if thats what u want go for it
i mean, every month you are gonna have to go back to june/april, but if you’re fine with that go for it
@pine magnet alright! I’ll go to the date 🥳
Im in cherry blossom season rn because i didnt have the game when it happened
i want autumn all year😢
I don’t like autumn
working on my house area since i just got terraforming, hoping to make my island have a mountain/woodsy theme
november is a vibe those blue weeds👌
whos island was that cherry blossom shaped map again
blue weeds?!
@tired oak wow! A lot more organised then I was!
little hot spring area I made-
@sullen jewel AWESOME
@sullen jewel really nice!
Skipped to cherry blossoms,
*ok, this is hot.
UwU the places only circled in orange will be super detailed decorated, and the placed circled with pink will mostly be flowers, trees, and small items. The red blob will be my korok rock garden
The hill is where my house is gonna go
i just don’t want to go to cherry season bc of eggs
I don’t think that’s how it works
i’m stupid😣
which flower colors are the best for cottage core?
The Easter event was an update, not something you can just time travel to UwU
which colors are the best for cottage core?
@pine magnet white, light brown, green!
brown white/beige and dark green @pine magnet
@pine magnet im gonna say muted/warm colors like browns, warm yellows, reds, greens, beige etc
@nocturne zenith maximun of 8 inclines and 8 bridges :c
Yesss omg, I finally got back to 3 starsssssssssssssssssssss
Thank you all so much😊
yea !!
@nocturne zenith I feel your pain, I wasted 4 inclines just leading up to my museum
I still have 1 incline and 2 bridges and idk where I can even fit em 😂
how many inclines and bridges are you allowed?
8 each
Any suggestions for the sphynx and mystic statues? Im gonna throw a pyramid in the top right but not sure how I should decorate the rest, it's a 9x9 plot including the fences
Any little park areas with fountains and stuff?
i have no inclines or bridges because i cleared off my whole island so i could have room to terraform
Is it smart to buy a fake Gallant Statue just because it looks nice?
Definitely
For decorating yeah
i mean if you want to, go for it
plenty of people buy fakes
Alright lol, ill buy it. I’m not really into buying art anyways. Just they look nice
I am also planning on buying lots of fakes!
its better than buying a genuine one for decorating purposes so that you dont have to worry about having an empty space in the museum
Lol
I bought a real Valiant and Redd sold it next day
What ramp should I go for? also @limber ginkgo I’m looking for a fake/real valiant
I’m using terracotta paths
Anyone have a natural garden table that I could have for my layout?
Is this the best choice?
@viral maple they go well together
@viral maple your name🤣🤣
Ahahha
@viral maple I actually have those two for my marketplace
think it would be very cool if there was an option to make tunnels
I found these two path outlines, forgot what they are called
so you could have little secret passageways on your island
OMG HOLY
I love the brick staircase and bridge!
F
nice
I’ll try it
do u have terraforming yet?
Yes- I have paths as you can c
https://www.reddit.com/r/AnimalCrossing/comments/gh9wu9/island_tour_of_my_cliffside_paradise_so_much_is/ anyone have more examples of towns like this? i'd kind of like to get different ideas of how i could build cliffside shops / villages around the RS more naturally
u can move the cliff back
Nah I’m so lazy-
just put more paths down lol
omg I rEaCHed mY goAl
People with city islands- what did you do when you run into this problem where the path roads don't make sense on near the edge of the grass/beach
unless ur not able to and the incline just Does That
I still have no idea what to do w a huge area of my island...... like zero ideas
my entrance 🙂
im making a big ol flower field with mine
little art corner!!! ignore the wasp sting oop but lmk what you think i could add! i might do nova lights on the water
I already have a flower field 🥺
@gritty flower i would end the road. i dont have paths like that but like put the aame path you have right next to it there so its like the road ends, no more driving
My house won’t be EQUALLLLLLLLLLLLLL
@wooden ice what’s ur island theme?
area leading up to my house, might put flowers or little lights on the small spots of land in the water
@wooden ice diy shops! use simple panels and make stuff. small coffee shop a magazine stand honey shop a bakery
@inland furnace kinda natural/woodsy??? The bottom half is more structured though which is where my big empty space is
can someone please send a pic of their museum?
For reference: I cannot build anymore inclines lol
My town is starting to look pretty 🥺✨
hmmgnfng i wanna plant tea olive bushes everywhere but leif isnt in town atm
Anyone got museum layouts that aren't on cliffs?
anyone have museum layouts that are on a cliff lmaoo
am i making terraforming out to be more difficult than it actually is? i feel like i keep stalling bc i'm scared of fucking it up lol
it can be kinda frustrating at times
@vivid oasis
Ideas for things to put in marshal and Raymond’s relatively small backyards?
you can always fix what you mess up
@queen nexus it’s not that bad once you start! once i started i couldnt stop lmaoo
i'm staring at this stupid double south island which i figure i mostly hate cause of how flat it is
what did you guys do with your residential areas? i just moved all my villager houses to the beach and i don’t really know what to do
yes I just remembered I got cherry blossom themed recipes from balloons
if you wanna come to my island and see mine you can @opaque steeple
havent done it yet but for my residential area i plan on making it secluded by cliffs and trees and stuff, with a lake at the end
@opaque steeple may not help, but I chose a close plaza, so I did this.
@dense shell i would love too!
Any ideas on what to put on this area?
@outer saffron maybe a park? with like benches
maybe a little picnic area or a park?
@outer saffron flowers and a pathway with a dog park of mums toys cause they look like dogs-
That sounds nice ty guys!
@outer saffron my pleasureeeeeee
😄
Guys, I made a games area, is it good? (It’s a spin the wheel game)
Im looking for some museums not on cliffs, maybe forest themed to have it be a little hidden 😮
I like this
Anyone got a good custom design blanket?
@vivid oasis
Hi what’s the concept of this chat ? 😭
@vivid oasis oh I'm working on my museum right now that's not on a cliff. Let me get a pic
@worn apex share what our islands look like
omg I want to show y’all my island 😳😳
go for it!
@worn apex please doo!
Its to show off your islands and to ask for suggestions
@worn apex island inspiration and talking about cool designs we've seen! Also suggestions
Yay ! I’m gonna take pictures 😎
Need small res service area inspiration! @ me with any examples. I have 8 spaces and it’s offset by 1 from the left side (if that makes any sense)
@worn apex can’t wait to see!!
@hasty bramble flowers and ponds
@hazy raven Please do 😄
the 50,000 bell fee for moving buildings has me Struggling
I need more hyacinths that are pink/white has anyone got some? I can bring 2 gold roses for some!
@tired oak sameeeee. Makes me wish I thought this stuff through a little more in the beginning 😂
I have plenty of pink hyacinths
Can I see everyone’s museum layouts ??? Haha I need inspo!
@hasty bramble heres my entrance its pretty close to the RS as well
@royal spruce i knoww, i just kinda put all my villagers houses everywhere willy-nilly
what makes pink hyacinths again? sorry to get off island topic lol
@soft plaza looks great- love the circular paths there
@tired oak yes I did the exact same lol
@vivid oasis @atomic hatch here’s mine if it helps! I went for a more natural look
ok umm does anyone have any idea what i should put on the little islands in the water besides flowers/bushes 🥺👉👈 i have a few ideas but am unsure
Oh that's cute! Might help with the layout in the front for sure ^^
mi
My resident services was 5 blocks away-
Hi back ! Here’s my map
@vivid oasis yeah I don't know if it's worth sharing but here ya go. It's forest theme so you enter in from there and its suppose to be a little hidden
@viral maple a small space but you made it look great!
I’m lucky to have my resident services far away! My entrance
Nooo Leif isn’t selling hyacinths
Still can't decide on which flowers to use for the fountain
So the entrance looks like that
@paper snow that’s lovely!!
@worn apex wow!! its so detailed
@hazy raven mums, hyacinthS
Omg I love y’all islands ! They’re so creatives 🥺
@tired oak maybe some ducks? Or flowers
Hey for anyone that has built staircase inclines. Can you build a single stair case on a double cliff? Or does it have to be two separate staircases?
@barren sigil two separate sadly
my entrance so far 😄
Omg that’s so cute 🥺
my resident services is LITERALLY right next to the airport
tyy :DDD
@worldly spindle Thanks! 😭
@gray moth omg! That’s Amaze! You used up 3 bridgessssssss
@paper snow it looks amazing. Do you have that white flower custom design? May I get it ☺️
Yes I knowww. But it was totally worth it LOL. My resident services is pretty far away. I got a good spot
my resident services is LITERALLY right next to the airport
@tired oak Dont worry mine too, it lines up perfect with airport though so I guess that’s good other than fact it makes it hard to do trades
why.......
There’s not much space near my entrance since the plaza is close😭
finished my entrance today 🙂
@tired oak how many spaces? You can copy me.
@gray moth careful tho. I recently found out you can have a max of only 8 bridges
A max?! Didn’t know that.
Yeah like the stairs 😔😔😔
@north yoke Amazing! Love the custom design.
Any recommendations for anything else I can put on the 1 square islands? I just wanna make sure it’s exactly what I want before I end it
amazing entrance❤️ @fluid holly
i could probably move the shops and just make the entrance a big ol plaza
@fluid holly really nice! Maybe add some flowers?
@woeful trout gold roses
entrance to my natural themed island
@viral maple thank you!
hopefully once the bushes are in bloom season it’ll look better!
@hazy raven I planned it out already XD so im fine
I have this sort this sort of island that leads to the sculpture garden, any help is appreciated i feel it looks boring for some reason
@woven drift love it! Like that you have it away from the airport.
that looks so nicee
Not boring at all! 😮
Seeing y’all island made my heart go UwU💞✨
https://streamable.com/ab0r8b
flowers at my entrance
Here's my entrance. A lot of ppl doin cliffs. I did trees 🌲. Look there's K.K.
@fringe thicket maybe some more bushes at the bottom
Also, if any of you guys are stuck on themes... use Tropical Paradise!
My friend is only a week in and she has terraforming
wow
Is it bad that I don’t necessarily have a theme lol
@fluid holly the pattern on the class looks a bit repetitive!
Agreed^^
Any tips on this campsite sort of area?
stargazing spot, thinking of surrounding it with trees
i moved and terraformed my campsite today and i'm so happy!!! but i don't know what items decorate it well, does anyone have any recommendations?
Any other recommendations for the little islands? Gold roses are something I’ve thought about but I felt like it would look a bit off with the tiny flower patch in the big island @viral maple
how can i improve this fountain area? going for a medieval theme so no modern/futuristic furniture suggestions!
@fluid holly the pattern on the class looks a bit repetitive!
@viral maple ahh I know 😩 I wish had more plots for designs to switch it up
I think you should scatter them instead of putting them next to each other @fluid holly
@woven drift i have a birdhouse infront of mine (i customized it to the red color) and it looks really cute
@fluid holly I haven’t come across that problem yet. I don’t use custom designs to much
@gilded fiber that's a really cute idea!
@woven drift thats so cute!! where did u get the lil star lamps
If u want to make a high pond thingy do this it looks so good with flowers and things 🥺
@tired oak small ones are star clocks rotated to face the other way!
Does anyone have an idea for long vertical areas? 😤
how can i improve this fountain area? going for a medieval theme so no modern/futuristic furniture suggestions!
@north schooner I use flowers
@viral maple I mean it could be a massive rainbow flower field with a picnic area at the end I GUESS lol
@north schooner lOL
How big are villager houses?
@north schooner A reading corner or like spa? lol
I have this huge empty space next to my house what should i build
@heavy summit zen garden or stargazing area
@crude idol place an axe down, and viking helmets and gear on manaquins
@heavy summit Backyard!
I have a spa on the other side of the island... this area is only 5 across and it suuucks
How big are villager houses?
@fringe thicket theyre 4x4
I already have a zen garden
ZEN
Anyone have advice for my park? I feel like the colors are off
I think I've arrived at a satisfied point with this area!
honest opinions/suggestions please? o:
@warm spoke flowers and benches
@real aurora I think I’m gonna STEAL
Why are u being mean @floral topaz
@worn apex YOUR SQUAD IS EVERYTHING
@warm spoke try to get more multicolored versions of the park items! it's also a bit empty, maybe keep the ground grass and use flower patterns and flowers! also benches would be nice.
tea
Damn no help? 😭
@woeful trout what are those blue things on the islands? I feel like not much can fit on there. Maybe star lamps?
anyone got some pretty pool areas? mine is slacking
Star lamps are a good idea, they’re fake informative statues @north schooner
Looks great @real aurora
Please don’t mind the voices in the background lol
@tardy venture I don’t know if it’s PRETTY besides pretty basic but I mean I tried
Everyone keeps going u are all doing good jobs ! 😌 on that good night don’t give up 💞
Hi this is my map I have cleared everything and flattened the areas I want flat. I am struggling. I will take any ideas. The only area I’m happy with is around resident services
@viral maple I love a good sideways staircase. 👍
The thing I love the most is my crazy weird entrance mountain thing - although I’m afraid it’s too much? What do you guys think
my new entrance above view and normal,, I love it tbh
@north schooner that looks really cool honestly
@tardy venture you think so?? 😖😖
i'm trying to figure out how big this area of land is (from a screenshot)
does this look right?
yes! cliff and rivers are hard for me so i think it’s impressive
@lavish heath lol idk I made that area too I just winged it
Is there a website or instagram page that I can look at with some ideas for outside of each house !
Can someone tell em what my theme is? I have no ideaaaa
anyone got any ideas for storefronts? Like for a space in front of nook or ables?
@real aurora it looks perfect
@silent mason put some custom designs outfront of ables.
This was my take on the fountain area. I’m gonna change it tho
@silent mason infront of my able sisters i put a stall with some head accessories places on it and a shirt and dress placed next to it and on the other side i have a sewing machine
Bye guysss!
Really stuck for ideas to put here! Putting flowers just doesn’t cut it, anyone got any ideas? ☺️
@silent mason
@viral maple Bye!!
@silk ridge hula dolls? mr flamingos? nova lights? decoy ducks?
i got a perfectly fine villager housing area. but i decided to change it all. what u guys thinks?
OK! I restarted my island last night and am about to get terraforming! Show me your entrances! My residence service building is perfectly centered with my entry and i'm looking for inspiration!
not center but here it would look better if it was
@woven drift it’s so cute! I love it!
@woven drift STOPPPP THATS PERFECT
@woven drift I think I like that it's not centered
got rly excited about getting a robot hero so i decided to demolish one of my flower gardens and built this in its place!
How do I make this entrance look not bad and awkward?
Anyone have oasis designs or something similar. Need some inspiration
i have a small area between my rs and airport, does anyone have any inspo/ideas for what i could do?
Does anyone have the shop signs. The little arrow ones?
Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do with a really long but not wide space? I’m struggling to fill it up, lol
Nvm
Anyone wanna come to my island and tell me what to fix? 😆 dm me!
@vague idol idk if it fits the vibe of ur island but my rs is close to airport and i just covered it with cliffs like this (it is to the right behind the cliff
Thoughts on this little nook? It feels like it’s missing something but the shape is so awkward.
I'd say put something down lik a custom pattern, might help make it look more full 😮
@drifting lake i think it looks good! maybe add something in the middle of it though? like a fire pit or something would be cute
Does anyone have any airport waiting area deignes
What kind of fencing looks good around sherbs house? I’m having a difficult time decorating.
@drifting lake maybe some custom tiles with a cushion/book/ukelele/acoustic guitar? 😄
@drifting lake maybe try out some custom designs
^ a picnic blanket would be cute!
anyone have any areas they can share they used the straw fence? I’d like to incorporate it into my island but not really sure how
@pallid cobalt stone or iron & stone fence
Does anyone hv examples of dense neighborhoods?
@ebon vine the bench in ur picture, if i give you materials do you think you could make two for me? or is it like something you buy haha
RYAB
What kind of fencing looks good around sherbs house? I’m having a difficult time decorating.
@pallid cobalt I have some birch log stages around his house and some blue and white hyacinths. I think it goes with the baby blue vibezz
Can anyone post their parks? Looking for inspiration lol
dog park 🐶
@raw dune what breed is the pink one 👀 lmao
@worthy tendon LOL!
So, my Island name is Themyscira and I absolutely HAD to get Diana. And let me tell you, I am the happiest I've ever been
is diana rare?
diana is the best snooty 😳, and she’s not really rare but in high demand! @woven drift
Oh dang I got lucky then! I got her just in like my campsite.
@dense shell sure
anyone have cool flower scheme layouts? DM me!
deep sigh I'm throwing the towel in for the night on this
What’s everybody doing with the standee diy
I think it would look better if the background was either black to go with like the furniture or transparent
i agree ^!
Should I fill Beaus yard some more? If so any tips on what to add?
possibly make the purple transparent and just place the white on top of stone? @arctic quail
I think maybe like instead of flowers just spread out maybe just a tiny like little patch of 2x2 flowers?
@worthy tendon @woven drift I mkre so meant im throwing in the towel on getting all the pixels to line up ^^;
ohh I see the problem
@halcyon obsidian cute! Maybe a light source of some kind?
I think it might be better then to like use one of those images to qr codes! So like you could draw it out then put each like 1/9th in the converter
@halcyon obsidian and maybe some log benches or log table
oh!! i kinda like the asymmetrical look ^^ it’ll look v good when you manage to line them up!
@halcyon obsidian change the stone. To a stone stool and place a yellow hyacinth lamp on top
Here’s Erik’s yard— looking for tips and input too.
This was where Beau used to live. Olivia's about to move in, and I'd like to replace her. I'd like to change it to a luxurious style for her interior design, but I don't know what to do with it. Can you recommend what color floor color to change and which furniture to put in the yard? Or I'd appreciate it if you could post up some of these decorated photos.
@arctic quail highly recommend using a tool like photoshop where you can measure pixel by pixel over multiple qr codes
@halcyon obsidian I think it looks perfect
Friday night chess with my pal holding a lollipop!
does anyone have a full list of areas to do on an island ??
I have a 2 hour drive to spend getting them lined up a little better! So tomorrow I'll probably sit down and get that done. I do really like the idea of putting them on the stone path tho!
Also @worldly notch at this exact moment I dont have the time to. I also feel a little more accomplished doing it myself ^^;
can anyone send a pic of their museum? need the inspo haha
@dense shell
Does anyone use the straw fence? if so where?
is there any island layouts with a lined up airport and the rs exactly in the middle of the island?
Forest inspiration? I’m trying to build a squirrel based island so I want to keep it forest-ie and natural
Help I need ideas for this space!
Picnic space, I know custom designs for the “picnic mat”
I give up on making a playground area — the colors are off, it’s all disjointed .. help!
@arctic quail woah what’s the 2 hour drive for since you can’t go anywhere
I think I'm going to replace zucker with either beau or erik 😢 he's currently my "woodland" villager because his house fits the color scheme but having a real cabin will be better
can someone give me honest feedback. is this too much? what should i add or change
@pure nimbus uh, our stay at home order limited 15 days ago and my whole fam was getting depressed so we're just on a little private beach condo. Going home tomorrow
@halcyon dune I love that!
What other villagers fit really well in the forest? Based on house or species
How does this look to you guys as my entrance?
Fauna would be good for a forest theme island
@arctic quail wow lucky. Here in New York a lot is shut down still : (
@distant nest thank u!! 🥰
does anyone have inspo for two player houses next to each other? or even two villager homes side by side works!
@tight flax
all my neighbors are in a neighborhood. (their own fence and 1 item in front of their name plate(?where u can check who’s house it is)
my airport is awkwardly close to my resident services, i’m planning on moving my nooks cranny and all the house to their own designated spot but i’m wondering if anybody has ideas for an entrance?
@winter crow build cliffs to block out space and add waterfalls!
Anyone have a finished island I can visit for inspiration? Dm me pls
i have a question ! so i’m looking to redo my island because i hate my layout. would anyone be interested in helping me out of getting rid of all my flowers ? i’d be a great help <33
@winter crow Someone here sent me this a while back when I mentioned my RS is close to my airport
oh wow that’s beautiful, thanks for the help guys!
found this
Whatcha think? Stars right?
Yeah, stars
I think I’m going to leave a space without a fire hidden so I can always just go back and change it to whatever if I find something later on so I don’t have to worry about not being able to
how did you get the fires under the water?
My west side neighborhood
It was a glitch, it’s patched now if you updated
how did you get the fires under the water?
@north schooner magic
awww
Haha yea 😅 the fires will stay under water after I update but after I update I can’t go back and add more
Anyone have a finished island I can visit for inspiration? Dm me pls
what should i add in this space?
Dj booth!
What should I fill my library with?
Practice daily and the results will follow
@opaque geyser id maybe place more seats/couches and maybe stacks of books around? wouldnt hurt to throw a few plants around too to make it feel more homey~
is the patch for jumpinng through waterfaalls a thing
@opaque geyser a painting!
My entrance, need some ideas for a platform that will go under the statues.
Thanks for the suggestions guys 😄
i’m very bad at making stuff look natural and idk where to put trees and flowers. i’m going for a cottagecore island.
I'm thinking of redoing my entire island but want to keep it dream related (nightmares, normal and lucid dreams) any suggestions? I kind of want a natural looking island instead of the straight lines
does anyone have any cottage fairy core ideas for my villager house arrangements
Okay I’ve removed all paths, removed the random bodies of water, broken all rocks, chopped down all trees and dig up the stumps, requested to move a house and bridge, and picked up all items
something like this
Tomorrow I’ll finish moving houses and demolishing bridges before I start terraforming UwU
up that white incline in the pic i might put 2 villagers
goodnight everyone!
ooo a picnic area that’s good!
Question - how are people making outdoor libraries? The library wall thing I have is a wallpaper and not a furniture thing?
would anybody be willing to help me build a new layout for my island? i can even pay :) ( im the most uncreative person on this planet so i need someone to help )
Question - how are people making outdoor libraries? The library wall thing I have is a wallpaper and not a furniture thing?
@north schooner there is a wooden bookcase diy
how should i landscape this area? i’m not good at making stuff natural. i’m going for cottagecore themed
Ohhhhhhhhh, that's why. So I spent all that time buying books to make this stupid thing that isn't right
It would be kinda cool if you could set like admins of your island so other people could help you terraform
^
^
I need some residential area inspo /layout ideas 😭
IM RESTARTING MY ISLAND!🌿 i’m selling a TON of things and VILLAGERS! so please DM me i need everything gone ASAP!!🥺
animal crossing new horizons but discord
Lmao
can I just have stuff... maybe
The key to a natural island is asymmetry lol
Can I visit someone’s 5 star island for inspiration please? Preferably an island with 2 Southern outlets. Can bring you some bells/NMT/DIY as tip
Can anyone post ideas of what they have done with their able sisters?
@lament cloud mine's pretty simple, I have Nook's on the opposite side of the plaza. When I have them I plan on making the outdoor clothing all Labelle stuff
Lf for someone to make me a custom cafe I will pay 200nmt
@north schooner by using simple panel and attaching a customr library design just like the wallpaper.
I built my own cafe which looks pretty decent
@lament cloud mine's pretty simple, I have Nook's on the opposite side of the plaza. When I have them I plan on making the outdoor clothing all Labelle stuff
@limber ginkgo ty kindly! Simple but efficient
you know what @cloud willow that sounds more up my alley lol
Finished Lucky's plot last night, I might remove the sand flooring under the stone fencing so it looks a bit better under the flower patches. Also might put my flick statues here since he always talks about his bug friends
could someone please give me suggestions for my island? I want a more natural feel
oh it's gorgeous though t_t
my island looking at all of these pretty islands: 👁👄👁
me
I kinda want to put a centre piece in this area in front of my museum entrance, I dont want to use the fountain cause I have it in the centre at 2 other places already, any idea what I should put?
@rugged prawn a redd statue
@rugged prawn Maybe a statue? Beautiful or Valiant
Does anybody with an urban island want to show me their flower layout?
heres the more zoomed out items I already have both beautiful and valiant
this is the last time i’m posting this. how should i landscape this area? i’m not good at making stuff natural. i’m going for cottagecore themed
@unreal tusk @limber ginkgo
@north schooner making a wine shop\vineyard. Buy using simple panel i made wine shelfs.
Celeste! 75k entry. No wait
Ill host an island tour tonight after my workout
Here's my themes
- City
- Urban
- Magical Forest
- Fairy Core
- Farmlands
- Nature
DM if interested
@cloud willow that's so cute!! And smart - can you only use (sorry I got distracted by the pics lol) simple panels? I looked on nookazon and there's a lot of options lol
@glacial lily I feel like when making stuff look natural and cottagecore you kinda have to throw stuff around until you like it and make it very asymmetrical.
Has anyone used simple panels around their town hall? Curious what designs you used if so
Simple panels are hard to work with imo 
you think so?
@north schooner simple panels is nixe to use as a background or menu stand for a shop.
hey so i was gonna originally put the museum at the top of my residential area with inclines leading up to it with houses on side, but i see the museum is 7 wide..... anyone got suggestions to keep the same idea and make it look better?
Part of the reason is I'm already out of custom design slots, but I dabbled in simple panels really early on and couldn't get them to line up just right. Might try again
I guess I need some brown simple panels then for my outdoor library thingie. @nocturne oar I used two inclines personally
Does anyone have any idea what I should put here? I’m making a natural-themed island with a colour scheme of mostly browns, oranges, reds and whites
So Cute! ♡ my island is very simple compared to you all 😅
Would anyone be okay with letting me tour their island? I need some inspo for my island! 💕
Picnic? Playground? Shop? I think that's a great area for one of the shops.
You could have a wooden bench and then some flowers around it @torn geode
Um does anybody here have an urban island, and could they show me the flower layout? Im at a loss
@cloud willow would you be willing to let me catalogue one of your brown simple panels so I can buy my own from the store?
Sure
What should I do in a large area?
@north schooner sure*
MY RS is so close to my airport and I don’t know how to decorate it 😦 HELP!?
@gentle flower do a mountain kinda thing to block it and make it look like it's farther away?
The entrance to my Resident Services. Mailbox city
@rugged prawn maybe put some hedges, shrubs, flowers, and trees as a centerpiece 😄
make like a pattern like what you'd see in pretty french hedge gardens! (but heavily-ACNH simplified lolol)
hey does anyone have an idea on how to display extra DIYs? i like to have them laying around my island for other ppl to take but then it lowers my island rating D:
I put mine in stalls
hey does anyone have an idea on how to display extra DIYs? i like to have them laying around my island for other ppl to take but then it lowers my island rating D:
@vale vigil there's no way to have a bunch of diys on the ground without lowering your rating unfortunately
@north schooner I did that as well!
I need entrance inspo. I don’t really have much room for anything big
Anyone have some pictures of some orchards? Need some ideas!
I have a good or terrible rs, its like 16 right, and 32 forward for DAL
@limber ginkgo omg I love ittt! 😩
I need ideas to decorate this area 😅
It's not mine, a kind fellow sent it to me when I asked for compact entrances :p @latent shell
hey does anyone have an idea on how to display extra DIYs? i like to have them laying around my island for other ppl to take but then it lowers my island rating D:
@vale vigil idk if it'd work but maybe please them on 2x2 tables with enough space to walk around?
maybe if they're not literally on the ground they might not count towards the rating but idk how many DIYs you have and if you'd be willing to try it out since it might not work and you'd use up mats and have a bunch of tables in the end o; lol
Lehgo
@north schooner like so?
@vale vigil you could give them all to me :3
anyone have any ideas on how to make this pathway more interesting? (this is the path to my secret beach)
||several warrior statues||
@torn geode build a small island in the middle, and put a tree and some flowers haha. 🌲🍄
@sand vessel you could add some palm tree lamps
anyone have any ideas on how to make this pathway more interesting? :0
@sand vessel I personally don't prefer straight paths but you can stick with a theme and place a bunch of items all around! ie a marketplace-street, flowers/plant area with greenery, something showy like a bunch of statues/celeste items (flex), etc etc
@sand vessel bushes!
thank you!!! i'll try all of these ideas and see what turns out the best
Just finished my island entrance! I’m not completely sold on it though. Open to constructive criticism and tips! (:
Is my rs good or bad? 16 to right and 32 forward
@sand vessel make it into yard sale area! It’s otw to redd’s right. So it could be a really cool dodgy place with some fake art hahah, lots of stalls and stuff!
thank you!! :0 ill try that out and see if it works out
@real quiver you could add a fountain ⛲️
https://twitter.com/Beartasticpants/status/1266553248825004032?s=20 I'm going natural themed, so there's gonna be more cliffs and water, etc etc. Should I do some natural pathing to the museum or stick to the stone at the bridge?
Anyone have a French garden / Versailles themed museum area I can use as inspiration?
@real quiver custom paths on top of the dirt maybe? 😄 and more items towards your theme!
@real quiver Nova lights would be cute! And you can add more lights so it looks nice at night haha. Like garden lanterns. I actually used little star clocks and turned them around to make it look like tiny nova lights 😂
Thank you for the ideas! (: i’ll definitely try all of them out!
Just finished working on my campsite. Any tips for decorating it a bit more?
flowers!
@woven drift Maybe some pink/purple and blue hyacinths and some hyacinth lamps might look nice around it? Idk
Oo hyacinth lamps sounds good
@woven drift a lot of log furniture is always cute! esp with a picnic area using qr codes and cushions/books/wooden instruments/etc 😄
I'll do that too 🙏
@real quiver I love that!!! It looks mythical
Tysm! I’m glad to know my island is working up to the theme i’m desperately trying to achieve lol 😂
@woven drift and maybe a few nova lights/star clocks by the moon to compliment its beautyyy
I've yet to find diys for those but I'll keep it in mind 🙏
I don’t know how I feel about this entrance, any advice to decorate or even change the appearance?
@real aurora it might be too late but I used stalls and made a take a gift sign, well I put them in mystery bags and said mystery gifts, but same idea lol
any ideas what to put right here? it’s next to a huge pond and behind my nooks cranny 🥺
@gentle flower hope this helps! ☺️ I put loads of lights, and a lot of floor paths. 🌿🐻🍄🌲
How does this entrance look
@latent shell dude you just. happened to have a close feel. to what i want my island. to feel like. qwqwqwqwq it beautiful, dude qwq
@woven drift I like it! Are you going to decorate the cliffs?
@real aurora it might be too late but I used stalls and made a take a gift sign, well I put them in mystery bags and said mystery gifts, but same idea lol
@woeful trout too late? are you talking about the stuff on the ground counting towards overall town rating? o:
how could I?
@willow gate aww thank uuu 😩🥺 Cottagecore vibes! Just search that on Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, you’re gonna find so many inspo picssss! 🌿🍄🌲 thats how I got started ☺️
@real aurora yea the diy recipes
@latent shell wait if that's your entrance... where do you go when you get off of the plane? unless I'm just blind and I'm missing stairs or a path lmao
@latent shell id also like to know lol
@north schooner you can see it in the close up photo ahah! There’s a brown bridge in the front thats from the airport! ☺️
@latent shell no like once you go from the airport you go into your island, where’s the entrance to go into the island?
For surrounding the stone, should I go with sand (lft side) or brick (right side)? Thank you in advance for any help, I really appreciate it
I like brick!
I like sand!
hey guys im having trouble deciding how to decorate these 2 empty spots in front of my entrance any ideas ?
anyone have a cottage core island i can visit?
@prime wharf flower garden and picnic area?
I’m making a library, should I use white or brown panels? Which one looks better?
@prime wharf looks like awesome spots for flower gardens or statues !!
@latent shell ohh theyre 2 dif pics lol
hello everyone ! i’m asking for help to get rid of all my flowers 🙂 i’m trying to redo my island and have too many. materials provided if needed! ty! 💘
@void helm sand for me!
I think brown
@woeful trout 😂🙈
Thanks @north schooner
@velvet swan depends on which bookshelves and what type of furniture youre going to use to decorate~
@velvet swan I think it depends on the rest of the vibe because white is really minimalist but brown can be very dark academia
@velvet swan I think brown as well
Thank you so much!
@woeful trout we have the same questions - I still don't see where you would get out of that area
Okay so 2 for sand and one for brick I think? Sand matches the color scheme better but at the same time, the brick is a nice break visually
@north schooner I’m pretty sure the second picture was just a dead end, the first picture doesn’t lead into the second picture I don’t think, but I don’t think OP gets what we’re asking lol
thanks for the ideas guys !! 🙂
Lol I have brick all over my island so I might just be biased
@latent shell okay right, but from that entrance, how do you get to everything else? it looks like a dead end
I think the orange tones go nicely with your blue pattern
I need help with my entrance between my RS & Airport, they are really close together and I don’t even know how to even make an entrance due to it being so close.
@prime wharf cafes by rivers are always cute! I second the picnic and flower garden ideas tho 😄
@north schooner ohhh it is leading from the first pic to the second, so I’m def confused as to where it’s going from there
@gentle flower can you make the mountain things thicker? that way you could add some waterfalls or flowers or shrubs maybe
I decorated that small bit of land a little bit - thoughts?
Trying to figure out what I can put in my corners of my market. Any ideas?
@flat lark plants? rock stools?
@torn geode looking good! going in the right direction! I'd suggest to throw in qr paths for details on the grass 😄
and the cedar tree will block the fossil in the back once it grows o;
@north schooner great idea! Plants sounds perfect
@real aurora Ooh! Good idea! A few little leaves never hurt anyone!
@bboy the pocket camp market place flags on the top, don't think they would fit on the bottom
@rocky hare 🤔🤔 don't think I've seen that. I'll look into it tho
@woeful trout @north schooner
@latent shell lmao thank you for going to the trouble for me and @woeful trout hahaha. I feel dumb XD
@north schooner @woeful trout it’s not complete yet, but my res services are slight off to the right, so I deciddd to block off the whole island from view and just lead people straight into the res services as an entrance 😂
@rocky hare woah! Those are perfect thanks my dude!
Also I hear people are trying to move their rocks. Haha. 😩 it was a nightmare and a half. 💀 But so worth it once you do! 🌿
ugh I want a rock garden but idk if I have the patience
congrats!’ moving rocks was so hard for me haha took almost a full day of work
^ same (too lazy and impatient lol)
Made my cliffs thicker, now what? 😔
I’d suggest doing it when your island is almost complete haha. Took me an hour because the rocks literally had nowhere left to spawn cause I drew so many custom paths 😂😩
@flat lark maybe some potted plants?
I’m making a trade outpost for Redd’s dock. what’s a 1x1 item I can use to represent Egypt/Africa? I have the coin headpiece and the mystic statue but I need one more
@gloomy river gold bars maybe?
@gloomy river a scorpionnn
Gold bars or gold dung beetle
Was also thinking gold dung beetle
@gentle flower I think the left cliff can be a lot bigger! ☺️ You can somehow connect it to the lake? And plant trees on top of the cliff 🌲
ohhhhhh those are all great suggestions!
@latent shell good idea
@flat lark you can add floor lights around the fountain
I think you should demolish it and put it on my island 😢 so pretty
@gloomy river or trap ankha in a spot hahahaha jkjk feel free to look at my lil egypt for something too if you want!
Any ideas on how I design marinas yard? I also have to do the same for marshal
Can someone please post a photo of their neighborhood? I’m trying to figure out how I want mine and I’m looking for some inspo
Very cool @real aurora !! thanks for the inspo!
@subtle widget please advertise in #villager-trade
@latent shell are the rocks all on the same grid square?
@graceful axle I’ll post mine. It’s not done yet though
@real aurora you're going to break the internet with how amazing this market looks
My neighbourhood on my map!
ughhhHHHHHHH
You guys are all so freaking talented my island looks like utter 💩
@gentle flower I think the left cliff can be a lot bigger! ☺️ You can somehow connect it to the lake? And plant trees on top of the cliff 🌲
@latent shell the problem is I have a Villagers house right here
How about this? This way I have both the sand and brick colors, I think this might be a good compromise 🤔
yesssss
@woeful trout it’s in a circle! ☺️ so in the middle you dig three holes vertically, one tile apart. And then you stagger two on each side vertically. You’ll get that round shape haha.
Neighbourhood pic inspo pt 1.
hi im trying to redo my entrance can anyone send theirs for inspo!💖
@weary vale @verbal gust thank you!!
@latent shell I mean on your map view it says section B3 and such, are all the rocks on the same grid square such as b3? Or is it split between 2?
How do you waterscape and not regret it LOL
Neighbourhood pic inspo pt 2.
@verbal gust are you looking for certain characters you need inspiration for?
you guys are making such cool things and im barely getting permits and making a entrance :0
@woeful trout oh sorry 🙈 Haha yes, they are all in one grid right at the back right corner ☺️
@latent shell alright ty, I always had them in a square but a circle is much better
@brazen horizon its okay!! You'll get there eventually 🙂
@woeful trout yes I need inspo for Marina and marshal. I’m designing their front yards
Anyone have ideas for this area? In front is a rectangular river/park area where I will eventually put a moon and some hybrid flowers, to the left is a neighborhood, to the right is a river. I used to have just a fountain there but it looks so boring
LF Magical Island Ideas :o
@graceful axle np!
Also pls ignore the rogue coconut and stick 😳
@rotund basin I REFUSE to ignore them - they are v important
@verbal gust this is my marinas yard
Anyone have any inspiration for the front of resident services or if I can see yours? Thanks!!
is bamboo this stubborn in real life because wow I am not a fan
@gentle flower oh hmmm yeah that is a little problem. 🥺 It’s either you maintain what you’ve got currently, and plant flowers and use custom paths to make your entrance look subtle. Or you gotta decide if you want more trees and then prioritise your entrance over the villager home 🥺 Just see which is more important and working accordingly ☺️✨ im sure you’ll find your way! 🌿
@woeful trout ooh good idea! I like the ocean stuff, I think I’ll do that. What about for marshal? I struggle with designing his the most
I want a denser residential setting, is a 6x7 yard small enough?
There would be 3 spaces left in front and 2 to the side
does anyone have museum inspo? i have a lot of space beside it and dont know how to fill it
@unfortunately I don’t have marshal 😅 I just have yards designs for these characters
Another update. Getting so close! Can start moving houses now too 🙌
@fringe thicket this is under the pins!
@woeful trout I also have Julian! What about for him? I was thinking a moon chair
Anyone have any star gazing parts of their island I can take inspiration from
does anyone have ideas on how to fill up space on your island? I have so many gaps and clear spaces and have no idea what to do with them😔
Moon chair would be good bc doesn’t he have a bunch of the Celeste recipes in his home? A space theme would look super nice
@worn kettle send pics of your gaps so we can tell u what u should put there
Anyone have suggestions for better fencing for Audie’s yard? The theme is literally I threw random furniture everywhere LOL. My main issue with the stone fencing is that it’s really short and doesn’t give a sense of privacy. But her house is a hard color to match with fences
@radiant siren build an excavation site, with fossils, a shovel, some tools. 💀 And use the dirt paths. You can also use pitfall seeds heh.
What should i do around this area , i already got zen garden
@heavy summit a night marker
@turbid parrot the lattice fence or the corral fence? They might not fit in with the theme but they’re taller than the stone fence I think
@turbid parrot corral fence? It might match the roof but idk about privacy
@worn kettle I’ve been doing different seating areas with benches and some cute furniture!
@verbal gust my yards are 5x5 next to the houses. I actually have Judy and Julian so I have 2 spaces themed houses
@heavy summit do you have a telescope ? throw a cushion in there too and you have a stargazing area
@heavy summit *night market
@turbid parrot. bamboo fencing?
@rotund basin @limber crater ahhh I didn't even think of the corral fence. For sure works in the back
I took some of judys stuff down though for rearranging
@turbid parrot I’d say bamboo since it’s like an island themed home (it’s what I used for mine ehe)
@woeful trout thanks for the ideas! I think I’ll use a mix of both for Julians yard
@real aurora @brazen horizon I have over 500 hours on my save file how did i not know bamboo fencing existed 🤣
same thing happened to me with the imperial fencing lol!
@turbid parrot LOLOL that’s like me with so many items dude
I do think the crescent moon chair would look better blue 😄 since the main color of the house is ORRRR make it orange! Idk hahaha
@real aurora i actually had the moon chair and right stars blue, and the left stars white initially. Can't really remember why I changed it
I'm gonna experiment tomorrow with new fencing and colors for the chair
I need some help with suggestions
riverside cafe orrrr maybe
picnic area/ place to sit?@rotund basin
hey um does anyone know of a good layout for a tree farm? i wanna put like 10 trees of each type in a nice ordered line and make it look nice but i dont have any idea on how ;-;
Do add a bit of orange tho too 😄 @turbid parrot
I'm building a little neighborhood and this it how the top row will look like
I'm looking for Elvish island inspiration. Think similar to Rivendell.
I heard some of you guys wanted to see some maps?
10 of each tree is 60 trees and thats going to take up a lot of space
@hybrid cedar
Yo I love that! I've been looking for some boardwalk type paths recently, do you have the design code for that?
what are some 1x1 items I can use to represent South/Central America or Mexico? so far I only know of Candy Mask and Sombrero for Mexico but I don’t know any others.
but I need to know if this would be a good look for the bottom row
I destroyed my orachard and just spread fruit trees throughout the island
@latent shell I think I did it
@brazen horizon oo that would be nice! Was thinking of doing a hybrid flower garden as an excuse to breed a ton of hybrids but I have a thief cousin so I’m kinda lost lol
Need ideas ^^
Can i get some turtle beach inspo pls
@gloomy river maybe some outfits like the rumba one! Or the poblana or mariachi outfitsss
Idk for sure which ones are southern american but I think they are as far as I know hahaha uhu
ohhh I forgot about those outfits! I’ll see if I can find space for them, thanks!
wedding items? whaaaa
Lf fish market inspo
Would anyone be willing to visit my island to have a look and give me recommendations on what else I can add? Here’s my current layout 🦦
@gentle flower wheeee okay have fun decorating! ☺️🌿
anyone have a penguin villager. I'm trying to think how to decorate cube's yard
almost tempted to attempt an ice rink looking design, but that would be ambitious
@copper quiver I think there's a line of ice stuff
@copper quiver frozen items (time travel or trading tho uhu), cedar trees, a few white flowers (like dem pansies), and some holly starts!
First map update in a while
new area reveal tomorrowwwww
I mean, cube is a kiddo, so I might just make his yard a play area.
maybe some bugs and terrariums, since he seems to like bugs
Yeah I would go on personality more than species
or go full derp and just give him lots of cubish items
Hi! Can someone please help? I’m trying to make like a natural zen themed island, and I’m going to use both cedar trees and bamboo trees, but I can’t decide which one I want for the entrance. (There is going to be another incline on the opposite side and white flowers scattered )
bamboo
@manic lantern not mine but its cute!
@delicate walrus bamboooo
maybe layer some bamboo partitions to give depth
Ok thank you guys so much :)) I’m gonna add a bamboo bench infront of the waterfall too
And ontop of the waterfall wired fences and more trees
are there SEA TURTLES in this game?!
made this sign for my museum

Thoughts on this playground I made near Bob’s house?
@kindred nimbus those are shell stools with a custom design underneath
@kindred nimbus noo
I'm trying to sweep this place into Olivia's yard, but I'm short of ideas. Could you tell me your idea or good furniture arrangement? I'm going to have a grand piano and cover the floor with a black wooden board.
Dang these are some good designs, I've been taking notes for when I'm able to play next week haha
@ornate compass constellation furniture like the virgo harp and the capricorn decoration
Okay, so what series of furniture like chairs and desks should we decorate instead of decorating?
Thanks to some of the advice given in this group, I managed to do up the central garden area!! All I need now is to build all 4 diagonal bridges around. thoughts??
Any ideas what I should do with this space around my museum?
Anyone got a resource for making map art?
new and improved entrance 🙂 any tips and advice to make it better?
@ornate compass black antique furniture if you’re trying to match a grand piano and some black wooden flooring maybe o:
Hey so the dark dirt paths will be houses but do you think its weird to have the top cliff step in, i cant rlly extend the bottom cliff without making it look weird
@slender robin maybe put some fossils and fake art?
@slender robin i've made some little exhibitions with fish and bug models, i think it would fit the space you have!
My lil library
here's my start on flora's area. directly to the west is my "secret" bamboo path to redd's dock. https://twitter.com/PhtevenF/status/1266572196400361473?s=20
Ooh thank you!! It’s a really awkward shape so I’m super confused, lol
@slender robin
@gentle flower I love me some shrubs/hedges!
bet @real aurora
I love the fish they used! I have trex skeleton next to the museum on the right already and my spinosaurus is in my neighborhood lol
can you plant palm trees on grass?
@copper quiver unfortunately no ): (unless you use sand pathing)
Can you put houses to the edge of a cliff
@copper quiver you need to lay down a sand path and then you can plant it
@copper quiver if you put down a square of sand under the tree you can
can you plant palm trees on grass?
@copper quiver terraform one space of sand path and plant it there, you won’t see the path once the tree grows
@slender robin that’s my museum entrance and here is the rest of it
I’m definitely gonna look into buying some fake art, thank you guys!! 🙂
I'm in need of some market inspo
ha, I got a fake asian dude statue and it's now guarding the edge of a cliff. thanks, redd.
My terra-cotta army
yeah, that statue
anyone have a picture of the shops ? like the designs around it lol
@frozen axle Is your layout for your map based off a game ? it seems familiar to me and Im not sure why 
i just put water down
Can you put villager houses to the edge of a water/cliff or does there need to be a square in between
Can you put villager houses to the edge of a water/cliff or does there need to be a square in between
@fringe thicket You can
okk ty
wooden path (to match nooks) or stone path (to match the arched path) for this lil section?
can somebody please help???? i dont know where to put my shops or the museum or ANYTHING can someone plz send me references or something im so stuck idk what to do 😔
Finally finished this area
I know the fossil is gonna get hidden behind the tree when it grows, but I’m gonna keep it there because that way people will still be able to see if from across the river
looking to visit someone’s five star island. i need inspo!! dm me
I placed my museum near the secret beach hoping that I could make Redd’s docking area something like an extension of the museum. So far, I got this mixed area where it has a “delivery area” feel with all the cardboard boxes and random stuff. But I’m wondering what I can place on the second level so it’s not so bare. Also rethinking what can be done in that patch where the chair, table and roses are. Suggestions for improvement? 🥺🙈
Guys I need beach inspiration 😩
@undone dune ooh I think putting the museum on the higher level in the left would be nice!! maybe terraform some cliffs/water in the middle and see where you can put the shops from there?
@frigid eagle id keep it wood so it looks like an extension of nooks if that’s what youre going for! i did the same with my plant shop~
Need help trying to figure out where to put these fences -
@undone dune you can try sectioning areas of your island so that you have “districts” if you’re looking for a bit of an urban look. I’ve seen people put their shops on the 2nd level and it looks absolutely lovely!
i’m working on my island entrance and i need some good inspiration!!
Anybody Have a Nooks Cranny Themed to a Gas Station or an image of one?
@storm bluff OMG my ables is above my nooks like that too lol! that looks beautiful btw ❤️ ty for ur input :)))
@undone dune mine is not fully done but here’s where my shops/ museum are at 🙂
I got the perfect topper to my rock farm
@inland dust my entrance
