@azure sedge baby clothes, oncler fan art, triggering ED stuff, snow flake bits
LMAO, wait there's onceler fanart??? tf
NOOOO HAHAHAHAH
My resident services is split up into the east side and west side. Should I have 5 on each or 4 and 6 since even numbers go better with my layout
@azure sedge depends on what tumblr era tbh
Srry I originated from tumblr I have final say
is this a Tumblr island or deviantART island
A cringy tumblr island thats chaotic
Deviantart 😔
@hot adder dont 4get the inflation art lol
do dan and phil custom designs everywhere with cat whiskers and galaxy stuff @azure sedge
Some shots of cottagecore/nature inspo I've seen here and on the web, put to action. Still a WIP but hope you like it and it gives you some ideas too. Just want to pay it forward :-)
I like the word transcendental better than cottagecore makes you sound smarter
i genuinely thought those were all the same images at first lol, looks like a good start though
Can I come to a cottage core type island for inspiration? I’m starting to redo my island into that direction so I need inspiration 🤗💕
transcendentalism 😭
we heard you the first time of nobody responds it means nobody wants to lmao
Well thanks 🥴
@limber crater see don't you feel like you have a big brain
@manic kelp I feel the pain of knowing what that is
I want a Moomin's valley island but I am not too great at designing it, thanks though! 😄
this is gonna be my market, I think. is there any criticism on the shape? (the area it cuts off is gonna lead into a forest that goes to redd's beach)
idk if this is the right channel to ask, but does anyone have any residential area inspo? i have no idea where to put my 10 villagers and make it look good + not take up a bunch of island space
@hot adder try free island visits,, or if ur willing 2 wait u can tour my forest town (( but immabout to get sum hair dye so like maybe an hour))
Oh oki
I went from this
@upper egret this is what I have
To this 😅
Constructive criticism appreciated for my jellyfish fields area
Help! I need inspo for my front yard/house area... I have no idea what to make
Can I show off my hard work from the entire day of terraforming 🥺
@limber crater whats ur map look like??
@silver sorrel add some bright pink flowers I love ur jellyfish fields area 
if anyone wants to come to my island to get inspo lmk! (no fee ofc)
ill see if i have some, thanks!
np!
@upper egret it’s still under construction but I swear it looks good in person lmao
should i turn this into a marketplace area?? i can happily change the shape, but where it cuts off at the top will lead into a tiny nature walk/forest to redd's beach
@silver sorrel i have a few pink cosmos you can have for free
Celeste is here! Shooting stars, kicks and all the shops are open! 40k or 4NMT entry fee!
nah it's good i have some
@onyx epoch wrong channel
Celeste is here! Shooting stars, kicks and all the shops are open! 40k or 4NMT entry fee!
@onyx epoch 1. you're overcharging. geez. 2.
Is dobie studying a weed
lovely island @spring haven , looks great!
Before and after. I like doing scavenger hunts in my maze island. All buildings are in the central island for quick access (already planned where the new standalone buildings will be). Only my house is apart.
My basketball court and boxing ring are complete but idk what to add to my resident services
omg the image threads are taking over
i love the little accent patterns on the circles!!
@manic kelp we don’t talk about it 😂
@lost bramble new standalone buildings?? wdym
@spring haven host an island tour!! 🤩
your island gives me HUGE genuine originally deserted island vibes. the structure is very natural and whimsical, while still being super lived in!!
@agile girder We could get new buildings like the coffe The Roost and a museum shop
@barren karma Thankyou 🥺💕
@spring haven looking really really nice! i'm glad that entrance inspo helped! 
That needs to be optional because I have no space
@scenic blaze it did!! Made me redo my entire right side 😭
@spring haven worth it thoooo
What do you guys have in front of your Nooks and Ables??
eek. sorry to repost.... again
would this make an OK marketplace? where it cuts off will be a tiny nature walk/forest to redds.
@scenic blaze definitely!
@barren karma yeah, it looks like a nice shape for a marketplace
@barren karma That’s a huge space and would make an amazing marketplace!
just finished my island entrance!! might change it later but for the time being, i’m really happy with how it turned out 😁
@barren karma bring the cliff on the left side a bit closer
anyone have any inspo for this kind of RS placement btw? ignore the water terraforming i fixed that recently
ah, but if i bring it closer, it'll be uneven 
I’m redoing everything from the scratch to a more natural shaped island.
My rock garden is sort of complete. I just need to add some more furniture to it.
O.0
how much time did that take
how much time did that take
@limber crater A whole day time traveling.
:0
I would have developed my island first then there would already be a whole lot of covered ground
eek...... how should i change the shape, if at all? i could bring the left cliff inwards, but then it wouldnt be even!
and does anyone have some kinda spaced out market inspo?
My markets literally just some guy bleeding out in the garbage can
bruh
my spirited away bathhouse area! i still need to add lights and no face but i’m pretty happy with it
@barren karma if you want it to lead to a forest like you mentioned earlier, you might want to taper off the top right end. Like you put a stall on the left and a stall on the right and the blank part could be a "secret path" or something.
you're so right!!! that'd be so cool! 
Zzzzzz
@manic kelp no blood?
I don't think Coco has blood Soooooo
@woven drift sorry this is a super specific question but, this single space circular rock path- is that a custom design? if not, how did you do it? i'm wanting something similar for my dirt paths
It's a custom design
@woven drift sorry this is a super specific question but, this single space circular rock path- is that a custom design? if not, how did you do it? i'm wanting something similar for my dirt paths
@plucky holly It is a custom design.
dam 😔
Do you think this is a good size for my villagers houses + yards?
sorry to ask again but are there any entrance inspo pics anywhere for an rs in this position?
anyone have any good reference photos for orchards? i wanna make mine have a more cottagecore feel
i second that^
@upper egret here's what I had! https://twitter.com/Pheleon2/status/1262586292300206081?s=19
Does anyone have villager houses designes similar to these ones???
Anyone know how to make a grand entrance with a Res services being so close to the entrance, I did a goof choosing my island
Hidden shrine and a dead guy
I thought my island was pretty ;; then I came here
@last mica use cliffs or trees or other obstacles to force visitors to a different area? You can always have the main path be to say, the shopping area, which tbh is a lot more interesting for visitors than RS
Happy pride month!!!🏳️🌈
Yall aint ready
Oop-
Wowee great plug YourBoiWill24 love the effort! Uh might be the wrong chat but the spirit is there!
use cliffs or trees or other obstacles to force visitors to a different area? You can always have the main path be to say, the shopping area, which tbh is a lot more interesting for visitors than RS
@gritty sentinel I’ve been trying different entrances and so far the only one that makes me happy is this, but as you can see it’s right there, my other option would be to make the back part left and right Instead of straight through I guess, I’m only starting to work on it all now and it’s a big mess lmao
That looks great! You could use trees in place of the far cliffs/near them to hide the building from sight, and use bushes on the cliffs for the same
Is this the right channel to share my terraforming results? Progress gif, walk-through video, and lots of process details in my Reddit post (in the top comment): https://reddit.com/r/AnimalCrossing/comments/gyzvnd/it_took_me_56_hours_across_16_days_to_finally/
So I have decided to change my island layout for the first time and here is the super rough draft
Is that a turtle lake??
loving the star lmao
Does anyone have an pics of terraform around their residence services??? Preferably a cottage core kinda theme :)
oh yeah my dumb self was like “it’s a star”
Yeah, I was trying to make a star then made the turtle by happy accident xD
My RS is an island!@slender tulip
i have terraformed a cliff round the back of resident services (then coming round the sides) and it looks alright actually
That's awesome!
@slender tulip here's a photo of part of my RS~
Small Area of my Plaza. 
@storm bluff love it
ahhh i guys got such good design taste
@somber cradle I will say having recently finished my terraforming that you might find that layout of your animal homes to be pretty cramped in-game.
@storm bluff that's just the thing i thought of! Thank you !
half of my bamboo didn't even grow NOOOOOFooOooo
does anybody else have a separate market place on their island?
@manic kelp dude I love this so much
@unborn pine Thank you for the info!!
Any entrance suggestion? Tho I can’t terraform yet 
@whole bane do you have a theme you're trying to go for on your island? if you give us more info we can try to help come up with ideas
I was hoping for a nature/foresty like theme
Finished Zucker’s, Peanut’s, and Pashmina’s houses! I based the design off their personalities
Working on a quiet/relaxing spot on my island~♡
I need some inspo for my museum. I want to display some fossils but not sure how without it looking crowded. Anyone got pics?
Any tips on making a cohesive island? i can get certain spots i like but i’m having a hard time figuring out what to put where and make it match. this is my favorite area so far, and my map
@rigid ibex I like the flooring you sued in the 3rd pic! The grass one. Do you happen to know the code?
@whole bane definitely might need terraforming for that haha~ id start planting a bunch of trees that you can dig up and move around later to decorate!
What grass one
My new entrance ^^ still wip. Any suggestions what i should add into this project? 🙂
this one with the boarder
Ohhh
I'm looking for Ideas for a sort of Park and Plaza like look leading into a Bazaar area, any suggestions?
Does anyone have restaurant entrances with a host?
@whole bane definitely might need terraforming for that haha~ id start planting a bunch of trees that you can dig up and move around later to decorate!
@storm bluff I know thats why Im lost without terraforming
@grave lagoon I'm jealous T_T
@trim wyvern yeah I got it from a YouTuber named Cordless VII (He’s in the server btw). He has a video detailing the custom paths he has
@rigid ibex Oh tysm!
@whole bane do you need to decorate it now or can you wait until you get terraforming? just so it saves you the step of having to clear out your entrance to start terraforming...
@trim wyvern haha thnx but im still missing things 🙈
hii! thoughts on my stargazing area?
@whole bane do you need to decorate it now or can you wait until you get terraforming? just so it saves you the step of having to clear out your entrance to start terraforming...
@storm bluff it feels kinda weird having a huge blank space there so i’d probably search more ideas
Only criticism I have is to make it higher but overall looks great @primal fiber
how do y’all make cohesive islands? i’m having a really hard time making mine look good haha, my theme is a japanese/state park and i have ideas but i just don’t know where to place them and make them look good. i want to have little islands with my shops on them but it always just looks bad
@whole bane got it, i guess for now you can use trees and fences? if you're going for that foresty type theme
Do you guys think this looks weird? I did the long bridge but I have this side ramp to campsite coming off it.
So this is how it looks. Lmk if you would like a tour ^^
I need some inspo for my museum. Anyone got pics of theirs?
@lost bramble lmao this is amazing, blow my mind. 😱 😱 😱
@trim wyvern this is mine only 1 fossil but not crowded lol
@drowsy epoch maybe if you switched it to the log ramp instead of the natural one it will blend into the bridge better?
I have this empty spot and I have no idea what to do with it
@lost bramble omg I really dont get how people fit so much on their island and make it look good! I feel like my island is too small XD
@vivid mulch Ooo thank you!!
My museum that keeps getting hate
@whole bane got it, i guess for now you can use trees and fences? if you're going for that foresty type theme
@storm bluff yess thanks if you know any simple entrance let me know. I could really use some inspiration
Does anyone have an idea or something to put in front of the cedar trees?
Tysm guys ^^
@pine ridge Streetlights perhaps?
@pine ridge cushion, flowers, weeds, book?
@lost bramble drop it in any social media, hopefully u will have chase on ur island or whoever from yt! This is just flabbergasted
@whole bane if you type "in: island-layouts has:image simple entrance" into the search bar there are a few nice entrance examples that dont use terraforming~
Does anyone know what I can do with this plot of land
@steel tusk so much room!! It could be anything
@pine ridge hydrangeas:)
@steel tusk an art display, fossil display, planetarium, a garden
@trim wyvern This is my museum, it's the main feature of my island entrance.
This is my city so far😭 🥺 need more space but island is tooooo small
@steel tusk a que for your museum using fencing, and either side some trees and plants, and maybe a seating area with some artwork or fossils on display? X
@weary vale oo i might use that island idea to make the rs blend in better, thats actually genius
I need inspo for my nooks
@ebon bolt thx 😊 I have chosen the street lamps
LF: someone to decorate a room with certain requirements will pay generously for all the items you acquire (NMT , bells , gold nuggets)
No prob! c:
My nooks is pretty plain but I made a park right in front @grave lagoon
i wish there was a specific website for inspiration pictures other than looking thru pinterest
@half peak wrong channel! Also this sounds extremely suspicious, the way you've worded it haha
@weary vale that's so creative, fantastic! Tysm
@half peak no one wants to be paid to design your island and also its against the rules (check pins)
how does it sound suspicious if I may ask ?
people can't come over and place items in your house anyways
IK that I’m paying them for the items
READ THE PINS!!
Please~ 
Listen dangle, this is island layouts not get someone else to do the work for you
@half peak I mean... You're asking for a room with "certain requirements." It sounds kind of creepy, lol
I need ideas
y’all are gross af if you think of it like that
@woven drift omg so clean no need idea's 🥺 i want this too rn hahaha
Anyone have any tips on the best way to restart an island? Mines 5 stars but now I want to tear it down and start a new island theme. 😅
Finally finished replacing my paths and my map looks pretty nice now.
✨
@dreamy bridge just jump in! I just started this and it was painful taking down the first nicely crafted area... But it's just been a blast redesigning since
@dreamy bridge I'm just curious. What theme do you want to restart it to?
@gritty sentinel did you work in sections?
This just in: I regret the island placement cause it now feels a little cramped
@woven verge wow you’re map layout is to die for 
@woven verge i love your carefully crafted waterways 😔
@dreamy bridge yeah! Started with my entrance and branched out from there. I did a lot less structured planning this time around
@whole bane if you type "in: island-layouts has:image simple entrance" into the search bar there are a few nice entrance examples that dont use terraforming~
@storm bluff WILL DO. THANK YOU
@woven drift I want something more foresty and natural. Right now it feels tropical but it still has some structure to it
I’m planning on doing a little neighbor thing with fences and yards. This is the layout right now. Most likely the other five will be close to the line of it.
@woven verge this makes me quit acnh 🥺
so much lovely things and terraforming next level
@tender frigate Awww, tysm! Your pfp is to die for!

@gritty sentinel ty!
@dreamy bridge save some weeds you have everytime you pick them and place them in random spots, same with trees/ flowers if you want super foresty
@dreamy bridge good luck and carry a trash can with you! 
@dreamy bridge Oh I'm doing a similar theme for my island. I can give you some tips if you want
I think the best tip for making an island look more foresty vs tropical is cedar trees
Omg thank you all so much. 💖💖💖
cedar trees, dark dirt paths, simple color scheme for flowers, weeds, and garden rock DIYs
@upper egret Tysm ahhh, they weren't exactly carefully crafted. It was more like a late night project haha
In regards to my video, the houses (from right to left) are: Zucker, Flip, Rocco, Opal, Julian. I’ve only done them right now cause those are the five I want to stay. I’ll add other yards once I get the rest of my wishlist (like Carrie) in.
does anybody have a cute able sisters layout? i’m redesigning my shopping area and i need a cute area for ables
Maybe find a pathway pattern with little patches of fabric or something?
Hi guys, how to make Marshal's exterior look like his house? I need ideas :(
@abstract magnet
@woven drift ironwood furniture customized to the black+brown!
@abstract magnet I don't have a picture with me but I added a table and chair next to a fruit tree. The table was an article of clothing on it.
@grave lagoon Honey, never quit animal crossing! I'm like 100% sure anyone can do that Kind of landscaping If I can do it ^^
Hey! Does anyone have any tiki bar/beaches? I'm making my island tropical (:
@woven drift wooden path, iron gate, comfy furniture like@maybe ironwood or something.
Can I get some help in the department of island design? I'm having trouble finding a place to put my villager
@steep canopy send ur map! Maybe we can all help
@abstract magnet Here's mine!
@abstract magnet this is mine, I think it's cute lol
@woven verge ThnQ
🥺 😭 ❤️
@woven verge that’s so cute! do you have the design ID for the sign that says able sisters?
This is what I'm currently working on. I painted over my buildings but the little lumos of green circles next to RS are the houses. The top right is set to be a museum spot
Wdy guys think of one of my residential areas?! I changed some things but I don’t want to re-record the video agian😂 so imagine this but better 💀
I'm currently working on making the top like that. I wanted to make a drawing out of water but the placement and drawing itself are not set in stone
@oblique vapor it looks a bit cluttered for the first house. Sometimes the fruit trees get in the way.
I think you could put the villager houses anywhere! Maybe think about if you want a neighbourhood or them all scattered and look at other maps for inspiration@steep canopy
I meant for it to look that way
Ok well then forget what I said but you didn’t have to downvote me 😒
It wasn’t just me😂
@oblique vapor That's so pretty, your villagers are so lucky!
@weary vale I'm unsure of where I even want to place them! The lover of symmetry in me likes neighborhoods, BUT I also want to put a patio on each villagers house and that takes a lot of space
does anyone have some market inspo? i need ideas for stalls lol :'>
@woven drift tysm! 🥰
I dont think it looks cluttered lol I really like it!! People in this chat are so quick to call islands "messy" and "disorganized" @oblique vapor
@abstract magnet I can't find it rn, but I'll let you know if I find it somewhere! C':
I agree lol! And tysm for your kind words! 🙂
I just said it looked cluttered for the ONE house and y’all are at my throats lmao
does anyone have orchard inspo that i could use for mine?
I mean you post here asking for input, expect input? Not everyone has the same tastes, and regardless if it was designed that way, we have no way of knowing that.
LOL HOW ARE WE AT YOUR THROATS
👀
Comment gets a thumbs down emoji and you think you're being attacked
my god
are you lot really at this again
Ahh the old layout ways 😂
heres how it is. if you post here, you're asking for input or showing it off. people are going to comment, good or bad. no one is saying you have to change anything, everything is opinion.
no one is at your throat, and no one is saying something is bad. just that it looks cluttered to them. please refrain from taking everything so seriously.
@barren karma this is how i place my stalls for market so far
Im trying to do a flower market! Anyone has something similar? I need some inspo :((
Ok and I agree with your statement 😂 all I was saying was that I meant for it to look kind of cluttered lol
Do you guys think this is a good idea? So i moved my villagers houses into a neighbourhood then at the end there is a little park for them since they don't have that much furniture besides a cushion and table.
does anyone mind showing their resident areas? i need inspo so badly
whaaaaat! i love that design
my area is a lil awkward for that though.....
does anyone have a fairycore entrance my resident services is so close so idk what to do qoijwdqdkal
@barren karma this is how i place my stalls for market so far
@grave lagoon mind if i post my market area and get some advice from you? what you've got so far is super cool!
Hey I need help with my house layouts, I want to have enough space to give each character a special yard but I don’t want to take up half my island with houses
@grave lagoon foufohvpjucu that looks soooo good! 🥺💕✨
pls tell me how cluttered my villagers' houses are
@barren karma sure and ThnQ ^^ but most is working in progress 🙈
Villager house inspo
i think its aesthetically cluttered, personally! you've got an incredibly nice mix of organisation and the lived in look
@barren karma this is Mine, still a biiig WIP
@woven verge thnQ🙈 😭 🥺 ❤️
Omg but thats so cute!!!
eeeeek... you're all so talented 
@oblique vapor it is cluttered, but I love clutter lol
@grim cosmos I think there's too many paintings 🤢
😂
Can anyone send pictures of houses with yards so I can get some inspo
@opal plinth if you scroll up youll find a few examples!
Is my market cluttered?
after all the work i put in customizing i should b modeling in them too
this chat a bit weird um 😳
heres my marketplace layout lmao-- where felicity is, is gonna lead into a tiny nature walk to abandoned rails and to redds beach!
Hi guys! I know this is a big offer, but can anyone of you guys make me an island layout plan for my island. Happy island designer would be good! My island is just really poor, os I would appreciate any of you guys who would love to help me out! Please dm me if you can, and I will send a picture of my island. Just so you can see my airport and town hall. Thx!
@storm bluff @versed wadi TYTY
yes @zealous pendant so cluttered
@void wren ikr. Like what happened???
can i just ask how people get inspiration on how to terraform cause i am tearing all cliffs down and i have no idea how i’m gonna re do it
Yes !!!!!!!!!🥳🥳🥳 @grim cosmos
twitter theres some rlly good accs my favorites are honeycrossing_ and norihorizons
Idk if this is the right chat room for my offer, so dm me if you can help me out, because it would be my dream!
@formal trench no one wants to design your island for you but if you ask questions in here we can help!!
yall im
we're always happy to assist, but no one will do it for you. besides, it means more if you do it yourself.
Can someone send me pics of their villagers houses? (Cherry and Walker in specific) I need fencing inspo
Well I don’t really want people to do it for me, I just need some inspiration or some layout designs to help me!
oh! then you're in the right place. what kinda theme do you want?
Does anyone have any idea for a shopping section? I have no inspiration 😩
@formal trench there’s Pinterest also for inspo. And twitter and reddit -just search your theme
I guess it would be kinda of a tropical beach vibe or just pastel
@void wren sorry if this is pretty late but here’s mine if you’d like inspo for a fairy core style entrance!! 💓💓
i have a beach you could use for inspo??
@barren karma first i should make all stalls black and place them like you want it. Btw your walking path through the market, how wide u want it?
Sure!
I don’t like using Inspo because then I feel like I’m going to want to copy the whole thing😂🤣
omg ty its so pretty 😳
well, idk abt the walking path... just generally, i like it a lil bit open!
@formal trench My island is kinda tropical jungle, This is my layout Not sure if you want to see some ingame pics too
I just don’t know how to start the planning lol
@shell tiger i would like to see some in game pics 🥺
Oh god me too Robin, pls
also, @formal trench! a little bit has changed since this, but i hope it'll help
may’s island is beautiful, just beware 😂
Robín#1115 thx for the pic! I really like your island layout 😄
Aahh ok
@shell tiger That looks STUNNING, I Love this sooo much! You're inspiring me now haha
If this helps... The south of my island is tropical and beach themed! @formal trench
Thx flower!
Hold on Ill get some in game pics 🙂
Thanks ieuweh! I love all the support!
i rly need some advice and criticism for my marketplace area LOL :')
Finished 1. Secret path to redd 🙂
2. Pagoda / train perspective 🙂
@grave lagoon gorgeoussss!!
Hi guys I need some help please! There’s a large empty space between the entrance area and the RS, what should I do with the area please? Thanks!
if anyone has an island layout with the max amount of bridges and inclines, can they send it to me please? i'm trying to draw inspirationnnnn
Ik, mine is really bad XD
@formal trench haha my island is called Pearville
i finished terraforming my redone entrance finally 😭 but i’m still so far from done
@green imp haha
anyone got images of village/ neighbourhood areas for inspiration or map layouts?
ooh! me, me! i have a 3 tier neighbourhood if you wanna see!
How is this for a guest room? I tried to make it cozy, and I really like it. Anything I should add to the guest room?-
ooh! me, me! i have a 3 tier neighbourhood if you wanna see!
@barren karma yes please !
https://twitter.com/ABootybay/status/1269733870984851456 My twitter is mainly a dumpster to get pictures on my laptop but I can;t figure out how to send multiple ones in a message so, here you go 🙂
What do y'all think?? I'm SUPER excited to start working on this soon... I feel like it needs one or two more ponds, but I can't decide where to put them.
can someone give me inspiration on a residential area?
this isnt mine but i literally stare at honeycrossings island videos for hours so https://twitter.com/honeycrossing_/status/1255684778617004032
shops area progress, my island is so smoll #AnimalCrossing #ACNH https://t.co/vNXjMpvmi6

@delicate sand you could make a cafe, or a music area! speaking from personal experience if u have musical instruments, your villagers will love them!!
like 4 ppl just posted residential areas ffs
Guys, do any of you know how to start planning out your island? I don’t know how to start at all
even this channel has slow mo
@formal trench you could use the online designer!
Target spotted , say goodbye to tangy
@formal trench personally I just start terraforming and I won’t stop till I like it lol
Thx!
yea i think most ppl just wing it
@delicate sand you could make a cafe, or a music area! speaking from personal experience if u have musical instruments, your villagers will love them!!
@torn isle thanks. The music square is in front of the RS as it’s not a large space. I will try the cafe idea, thanks!
@formal trench piece by piece... start with one area and grow from there. i built a neighborhood first, then that grew into a shopping center, then that grew into an entrance... and before i knew it i had a layout!
@formal trench your map is kinda like my starting map and this is what I did!!
heres a lil bit of my residential!!
https://twitter.com/makoshards/status/1270114688173346816
Ty! @weary vale
don't be shy, share ur complicated island layouts 🥺
i would if i actually did something in this game >:)
don't gotta tell me twice
also if anyone has ideas for small areas, i would love u forever
I fixed my island entrance, it's super close to resident services and off center so my options were limited but I rly like it

still in desperate need of market inspo or advice.... 
How did y’all decorate around residential services? I’m a bit stumped 
i rly need some advice and criticism for my marketplace area LOL :')
@barren karma Place as many stalls on the walls as possible. And on top of that. Between stalls simple panels and maybe streetlamps and utility poles. You can also use some arcades to make it more market or for some stalls you can use some sorts kind of fish. Use some diner chairs colors white or red/blue or wooden chairs or imperial chairs.
Not sure if it counts as complicated... https://twitter.com/Pheleon2/status/1270115135114207233?s=19
@still crypt spamming mountains everywhere
yaaaay! andy comes to the rescue! thank youuu!! so make sure they're against the wall?
@still crypt i made paths to different areas stemming off from resident services!!
Ugh I'm envious of that resident services all the way to the left
Not sure if it counts as complicated... https://twitter.com/Pheleon2/status/1270115135114207233?s=19
@gritty sentinel it's complicated and beautiful!
Might as well join in lol
all of ur islands r so beautiful omfg
A lot of people like it to be symmetrical and that's why I chose it in the middle but I regret it as Id rather have more space
how is everyone already done with their islands while im here redoing every area the next morning 😭
y'all with your complicated maps and im just-
@void wren I'm completely redoing mine so I feel you lol
my island is far from finished! :0
my resident services is right in front of my airport i wanted a big entrance 😔
Might as well join in lol
@bleak tundra o dang that's gorgeous! Can you show me a picture of how the houses are decorated? We have similar maps! (River mouths at the bottom ) and I'm having trouble choosing where to put my houses
@barren karma haha yes but that's what i personally like the best haha
y'all with your complicated maps and im just-
@barren karma ok but it's so visually pleasing
aw, really? :') ty ty <3
Okay, does mine count as complicated 😁
Does anyone one of you guys know what entrance to do? My town hall is too close to my airport lol
@torn wagon hmm no lmao
a b s o l u t e l y
I have two southern river mouths as well and it’s proving to be a bit difficult to work with 
museum entrance ideas?
looking at ur layouts makes me so ashamed...I don’t pay attention to mine at all and just work with whatever
y'all with your complicated maps and im just-
@barren karma i like how you put the villagers on 2 by 2!!!!
Pipwyn complete
ive seen ppl with short entrances make the resident services apart of a residential area so u can try that or if ur going for cottagecore u can hide resident services with mountains n stuff
oh gosh my entrance is so basic peaches-- here it is though, jic
Yeah. Southern mouths are hard :( part of me wants it to be symmetrical but I also do not know how to do organized messy, ya know? Lol
friendly reminder that your map layout does not reflect how your island looks in person!
This is what I did for my museum
Yeah, honestly I don't plan based on map layout, it's just a sweet bonus if it looks neat too
@storm bluff 💯
Map layout is meh, as long as it looks sick when you stroll around
friendly reminder that your map layout does not reflect how your island looks in person!
@storm bluff could not agree with that more, your map looks very different from what it looks like in person
XD
My residential services is in a weird spot in relation to my rivers, so I’m not sure if I should have the rivers go around it or under it
Trying to make my island as symmetrical as possible is taking over my life. Just messed up moving a house and I’m in shambles
@ripe root so true! my favourite part of the island is the ugliest bit of my map.
my island is so symmetrical i loved it but then i came in this channel and started feeling bad for not being more creative
heheh
thats rly comforting though lol, since on my map my rivers look ASS </3
but i swear they look alright in person
why does my island look so small compared to others...?
Ikr @floral bobcat
terraforming
ooooh! ty ty! im doing my best LOL just its difficult bc my marketplace is a lil more open
I think what helps make an island feel bigger than it is, is to create many small areas sprinkled around
Hey ya'll, this is my map right now. I was thinking of having two residential areas on each side of the map. I was wondering, does this feel repetitive or crowded, and do you think it would make the rest of my island seem weird because all of the non residential stuff is all in the same space too? thx in advance
@floral bobcat make areas with cliffs 🙂 itll look way bigger also amke sure you cant move places in staight lines
You're also very familiar with your own layout; other islands can seem much bigger in comparison
Ohh haha you can do it!
👏 ❤️
i planned my whole island around having unlimited inclines bc i didn't do my research and then had to redo it all when i found out,,,
Can you shrink beaches as well as cover the lakes that lead into the ocean
nope
Can you shrink beaches as well as cover the lakes that lead into the ocean
@south python no i don't think so
Can someone help me with a plan for my island pleasee
What do you think I should put here? My theme is a tropical resort island. I already have a pool deck.
@torn isle ok, thanks
@ripe root the farm etc on top left looks all right angles and weird shapes on the map. But it’s the most cohesive bit of the island
a fairy forest maybe
Any one with 5 star island help me look for areas to deckutter? I’m stuck 😭
could i ask for someone's advice on what to do with my island ?
my resident services is too close to my paths and my airport to do anything, and i've got all this empty space !!!
i'd love for anyone to dm me, and i'd highly appreciate it,
thanks 💗

Anyone have some cute library inspo? ❤️
@shell tiger thank you!
rip
Someone please help me figure out what to do with this island 😭
My Nooks so far🙂
@versed wadi that and more pink
@hard grove i love it! Well done! Gonna use this for some inspo^^
@grave lagoon looks amazing!
Aight well if anyone does end up having feedback for me pls tag me 👀
Why do people not like RS near the airport? I prefer it. It’s like part of the entrance imo. It’s the heart of the island
@bronze surge thanks ^^
@grave lagoon so cool
Why do people not like RS near the airport? I prefer it. It’s like part of the entrance imo. It’s the heart of the island
@oak thunder i wanted to make a creative entrance but having rs there makes it rlly hard
@versed wadi lolol gotcha!! i have yet to visit u btw T__T
@versed wadi lolol gotcha!! i have yet to visit u btw T__T
@storm bluff GIBBS FIX THIS
I really thought Monique would have a fancier house. I wanna give her a big beautiful fancy yard with her own personal garden and all that jazz but her house is just so plain bleh
This is my island layout so far!
Can someone send me pics of their villager’s house backyards? (Cherry and Walker in specific) I need inspo for fencing and stuff
Anyone has a witchy island/house?
I’d love some inspiration for orchards!
I just realized Monique has the exact same exterior as Mira (who previously lived there) what are the odds? It definitely doesn't suit her tho 😔
Someone please help me with ideas 😭
@round storm i dont think thats moniques house
Gimmy some wedding inspos😭 😭 😭
@round storm did you tt while they were moving in or out?
but it's definitely hers?? Also I don't remember
There is a known exterior glitch where this happens if you tt. Only fix is to move them out and back in, unfortunately
So that's what her house is supposed to look like? Omg it looks so much better and suits her 😔
I guess this is my punishment for being a dirtu, dirty time traveller
How recent is this? Do you think it's reasonable to simply wait for a patch?
It’s been like it since launch
I guess this is my punishment for being a dirtu, dirty time traveller
@round storm if you TT backwards during a villager moving in, their exterior can glitch
oh.... So they don't care, huh?
They may patch the cause of it, but it's extremely unlikely to fix already glitched houses.
Even if he TT two days forward
I hope they never fix it. I use it all the time to get villagers into houses more suited to my island.
just finished my coffee shop, any thoughts ? 🥰
It's best to tt forward one day at a time until the villager is at least in boxes
So I moved her in with amiibo. If I kick her out, can I move her in again the very next day? Or do I have to do the 3 day thing all over? Also, will she remember me? Will she keep our friendship level?
The mosquitos in this game are as annoying irl
I picked the worst island for terraforming 😭
I'll work w/ what I got though ahah
@short harness You have the same map as me, more or less
So I moved her in with amiibo. If I kick her out, can I move her in again the very next day? Or do I have to do the 3 day thing all over? Also, will she remember me? Will she keep our friendship level?
@round storm she'll forget you and you'll have to do the 3 days again, however you need to scan a different amiibo to get her out
Hey guys, Ive been seeing a lot of cool Statue Gardens. I would love to get more pictures. I am dedicating Redd's entrance to a statue garden.
Well if she forgets me it's not worth it, I'm too sentimental and that would make me sad
Only way a villager remembers you is if someone takes them and you take them back, even then I think friendship still resets
@granite comet looks cute
Anyone done colour/breed coordinating flower fields?
Does anyone have any stalls I can buy for my town
first part.... maybe?? idk if its any good
@barren karma Looks great! I like the fish theme! c:
@barren karma keep going! ^^
When you forgot you finally tore down your old original log bridge and you go to talk to tom and he says ‘hold a ceremony’ and this is the first you see of it. Fuq yess zen bridge 🥺 ok i guess its sideways my bad lol
ty ^_^ every market i go to has been fish focused lol :') what should the next stall be?
Anyone done colour/breed coordinating flower fields?
ty ^_^ every market i go to has been fish focused lol :') what should the next stall be?
@barren karma ice cream? or a bookstore stall
Fruits! 😄
@barren karma ive seen people do like a sufboard or bike rental stall i tough it was creative
hmmm... i already have an ice cream stall on my beach!! and i have all the stuff leftover from my juice bar for the fruit stand, and a few things for books
@barren karma Maybe a ramen shop?
omg... i wish, but im lacking in custom design space 
Oh nuuu! Big RIP
can someone show their themed villager house outside areas? like idk what to put outside my villagers houses!
@barren karma I did my market like a bazaar on the beach https://twitter.com/pipwyn/status/1263572924071632901?s=21

anyone have a sort of urban island entrance they'd like to share?
@calm torrent
@versed wadi omg that’s so cute 🥺tysm!!
Oof so much talent and creativity. Imma cry
@barren karma Maybe you could also do a little souvenir shop? With your native fruit and some cute stuff like a lucky cat? c:
Is this area cluttered ? I’m trying to get to 5 stars
eek!! great idea!!
I have so much open space and no idea what to do with it
@versed wadi That looks stunning omh

can someone show their themed villager house outside areas? like idk what to put outside my villagers houses!
@calm torrent doobie!
@limber ginkgo omg that’s so smart the book shelves
He was originally 1 layer up, I lowered everything and kept the fences on a higher elevation
Dobie is a hard boiled detective on my island
@heavy summit Okay I'm gonna say it, your island is iconic. I never seen anything like it and it's so creative. I love the ideas and the execution! Keep em going! 💕
What are some good items to use as walls, something with some thickness so no simple panels, trying to make an outdoor church
did my ables !
@agile swan a backwards white bookcase? 🤔
What I started with vs. now after a restart
gotta hide in the bunkers from artillery fire
@agile swan have you tried climbing walls
should i stick with the dark wood stalls, or go natural? im gonna have a gardening and fruit stall, and wondered if natural would look better....
dark wood is nice, it compliments the bright colors
@versed wadi just saw the website for your island on your twitter! It's so beautiful 🥺
i think you could complement the dark wood more if you used some custom designs on it
Does anyone have any pics of your villager’s house backyards? I need inspo please
i know
i dont have any more custom design spots. just one or two
i need a catch-all market design
anyone have museum inspo?
anyone have any inspo for like the area around the resident services or walking into the resident services plaza?
@heavy summit Icon. Serving scheme plotting in a trench realness
LF: the changing room in this picture!! pls dm me, can offer bells or nmt
can you guys show your shops? i’m having trouble on what to do
@barren karma I say stick with the dark wood stalls, they match the theme and the paths c:
OK!! i found a pattern that might work SUPER well for every stall--
Ooooo! that looks dooope! That'll def work for everything! c:
so i dont use up all my slots LOL--
@barren karma hey whats the code for that?
@lyric pecan
thanks!
what else could i add for skye's house? (besides flowers) also she came outside as i was taking this haha
ooh! maybe a painting or cute statue to the right side!
did you give her a litter box lol
LMAO i just noticed the litter box
lmfaoo yes bc it matches her house perfectly 😭 and tyy! i didnt think of those two
@coarse jewel A bird fountain, water spout, or statue maybe
skye seems like she'd love a cute lil painting or statue (also YES a bird fountain too)
omgg ty guys sm im gonna add one of those now
How’s my honey stand? Any constructive crit?
so pretty!!
Can someone show me their little entrance area or like your DIY drop off area because I need help lol
tweaked my farm a bit, here's the final version!
@coarse jewel thank you ♥️
Does anyone have cute penguin areas near their villagers houses they can share here? ?
I'm struggling with what to put around boomer roalds house other than frozen and gym stuff
Hi everyone, hitting a rut in my island designing. Need some help: so I have terracotta tiles running from my airport to its proximity, but I wanna change it up to some other tiles as well (wooden, stones etc).. for different areas. How did you guys do the transition so it’s not weird?
I hear Isabelle yelling in residence service as I plant more trees
Oh hi other rei
Needs more trees
Hello Guys! So I have this really big open space and I don’t know what to do so if you guys have any pictures or ideas please let me know!!
guys is this symmetrical?
@desert pilot a cafe or stage?
That’s a good idea thank you!!
@summer nimbus what do you mean there's nothing there
ack noooooo!! it looks super weird 
@summer nimbus it easier to tell if its upgraded and we cant really see rs
Rave Mountain is always an option for an open space
@barren karma try building strips
i think i saved some somewhere
what can i add to make this area more interesting? im gonna add another common butterfly model & paper butterfly model<3 going for an abandoned areaish
trees?
gotcha!! this'll be perfect
@worthy tendon trees or shrubs
This is my progress so far on my planning, does it look good so far?
@worthy tendon try A little bit of elevation
which shingles shall i use?? the ones i just posted, or these? (right)
Hey! Can anyone give me entrance ideas??
@formal trench yeah definitely, the house area especially
@green imp thx!
@barren karma the new one looks nice
the ones with no rust?
@barren karma yeah unless you want rust since they look similar
I swear I spend hours trying to get things symmetrical and just build and rebuild the same cliff for hours. - Ugh.
Before and after
Does anyone have a kinda vintage island theme going on? I’d love to see some ideas if anyone has done a theme like that. It’s what I want to do but I’m unsure of where to start 
anyone have some ideas for what to put on my hidden beach area? (where redd comes)
ooooor... these!!
@manic kelp Oooo! That must've been a lot of work! Would love to see ingame pics! C:
I gotta build a fish market
I've run out of inclines too - urgh.
@hallow ivy i made mine into a sort of vibe beach haha
Anyone got at cottagecore inspiration ?? And neighbourhood areas?
@hallow ivy barrels and camp fire
@keen fog do you have the code for those paths? they're so cool!!
Does anyone have pics of their villager’s house yards? I really need inspo so if I could have a few pics that’d be great
@hallow ivy Some Barrels and Fake Artwork. Could make it shady and scary c:
@barren karma MA-8511-9497-6748
Hidden Shrine also a dead guy
@woven verge Ooh! i love that idea
I've run out of inclines too - urgh.
@rich lynx I feel this on a spiritual level
i’m honestly so scared for when i run outta inclines
i wish they added some kind of fog machine like cloud flooring but outside
Aye someone inv me to there island I need some ideas
@karmic tundra Here is one with my old path! Hope it helps!
the depressing thing is, my entrance looks nice, but the rest of my island is a piece of crap
@green imp FELT THAT
@fleet axle i felt ur username 😭😂
Ooof, opposite problem. My entrance Looks shite but the rest of my island is decent @green imp
Finally at 5 stars.
i finished my spirited away bridge! the video was before it was finished but it shows off the bathhouse!
I have random bits where I don't know what to do though lol. Especially with no more inclines.
@rich lynx Oooo, Congrats! Always nice to reach that goal! C:
i need some inspo for outside houses cause this just isnt it
This is my old house I don't live here anymore but yeah
@buoyant burrow I’ve never watched (?) that but that bridge looks so cool
currently destroying my whole thing, just realized that means i have to do bridges and inclines too 😭
@rich lynx my biggest fear atm is no more inclined
@rich lynx Oooo, Congrats! Always nice to reach that goal! C:
@woven verge Honestly, just in time - me and Isabelle were about to fall out. She's never happy lol
Ella I feel you
@buoyant burrow Omg that looks s t U n n i n g
@hallow ivy thank you! and yeah it’s a movie, it’s super cute! you should watch it
i have a question dm me if you can answer: i have too much spare space, what should i put in it?
@buoyant burrow that looks really nice and probably better at night
Reformatting is the worst part of decorating
Been taking on some of the massive projects I've had in my head for Fairy Fall!
@buoyant burrow i really want to but never have time
I actually quite like my entrance - and the new stuff I did today.
if anyone wants to come to my island and give me some ideas i’ll be so grateful
@woven drift @woven verge thank you 🥺
This restaurant is gone but here you go
@manic kelp i can tell ur island is actually nice
i also need help on another thing! uh i wanna make a stargazing area but i kinda dont know how... anyone have inspo?
I'm having a "mini-break" from terraforming so if anyone wants to visit you're welcome 🙂
@woven drift this is the closest thing I have to a stargazing area sorry
@atomic pagoda oh im working on a little rainbow flower area! 💖
@woven drift What about a cliff and fencing? like an outdoor balcony kinda thing?
Need sone entrance ideas :(
any ideas on what should go in the empty space?
My bike rental shop for now ♥️
I made a stargazing area thing today 😄 ❤️ On the beach.
not my picture, but you could replicate this or do smth similar outside!
@woven drift I have a spot I call "moonlake" where I made a stargazing Spot c:
alright thank you guys!!
also does anyone have ideas on how to make your flower breeding area look nice? i tried my hardest but it isn’t very pretty haha, for reference my theme is japanese/state park
also, if anybody is struggling for ideas on terraform around resident services, I’ve done a thing where i did two rows of cliff down the side and a cliff on the back for perhaps a cafe area
Do show
@plain imp I have a list of stuff you can put in empty spaces. If you want it I can dm it to you or post it here! C:
Should I place the rock wall behind it to make a wall with hibiscus bushes on the side? Or should I do simple panels?
eek my switch is dead rn and i don’t have pictures, sorry 😦
if you could post it here id be really grateful! 💕
@wet ore Hibiscus bushes match that area pretty well, i think
What should I add here 🤔
This is my star-gazing parties area 🙂
Hey there! Here's a quick list of things you can put in empty spaces on your island, for some you'll need more space then for others but I'll be worth it I promise. These are the ideas that popped into my head after thinking about it for a few minutes so feel free to add anything C: Credit goes to 🎷saxophone#8680 for giving me the idea to do this!
Ideas for empty spaces:
Caffee, Diner, Karaoke station, bike stands to park ye bike in, zen area, bamboo area, forest, hounted forest, jungle, yard sale/garage sale, trainstation, park, picnic space, playground, festival spaces (you can theme them around the current holidays that are happening), bee "farm", flower garden, farm, statue garden, fairy garden, greenhouse, orchard, golf course, a castle, food stalls, gym, football field, hockeyring, baseball field, boxing ring, concert stage, disco, arcade, stargazing area, moon themed area, a witches hut, an area to perform rituals in, swimming pool area, bar, tiki bar, party beach, fishing area, tanning area, dump, backery, fountain area, graveyard, ruins, a pond, a cliff, minigame area, amusement park, study area, a duck feeding spot, crafting area, Stone garden
@visual hound perhaps a library are?
tysm x
i have a big blank space on my island and i was thinking i could move the museum there and put a library in front. opinions?
I made a hedge maze in one of my big spaces today 😄
@green imp love that! Blathers has major librarian vibes
10/10 would def do, that sounds like a great Idea! @green imp
@hallow ivy yessss i feel like i ignore blathers too much
Can someone help me with my island?
I wanna see people’s simple panel layouts. Or what people use as walls. I need inspiration
if yall are going forest theme, use log stakes as fences. it matches the vibe so good
Oooooooo that’s amazing!
@woven drift How can we help? C:
Bruh. I used to love Isabelle but she’s annoying, she’s never satisfied with my island and talks forever everyday. I’m just trying to TT for Redd so i can buy some fake art, jeez
@woven drift i love this
What are those items around the panels? @woven drift
Bookshelves
@vapid herald I used the panels as a wooden wall for my band, going to post it right now
@hallow ivy exactly, i feel like isabelle is a peppy in disguise, and screw her tv shows
Omg that's genius @woven drift
OK, i need some criticism
does my market contrast the vibe of my island too much? (i run through a lil bit in the video)
https://twitter.com/makoshards/status/1270138190309933056
Ty!
@green imp “The hosts are such chatterboxes” Like, girl. do you hear yourself?
@woven verge i want to move stuff around and build inclines.. I just unlocked terraforming and ive seen everybody's islands and how there entrances and stuff are certain ways and i have no idea where to start
My garden 👉👈 (the empty spots are where the rocks will go in the future)
@hallow ivy LMAO
Zelda - focus on one area at a time, or it gets overwhelming. I started with my entrance, then worked my way out.
Finally got my instruments! Just need to hunt for the rattan end tables. Any suggestions on the area? Feels bland and empty still
@barren karma I didn’t see the market much from the video 😛
@rich lynx yeah same. this method works really well
You guys can take inspiration from villager homes just sayin
sorry!! heres the market. does it contrast too much with my island vibe?
@warm dew dude that looks amazing!!!! Seriously. The mariachi stands look great! 10/10 if you had more room I’d say make a dining area / Mexican themed restaurant so it looks like a live band performing but it looks amazing
@manic kelp i would but i have chrissy and francine. naturally, you’d decorate with polka dots, right? problem is i hate polka dots
I need inspo for audies ouse anyone have any 😄
@hallow ivy man that’s depressing
Can some one show me there residential area need Inspiration
@vapid herald it’s on the right!
does anyone have a campfire kinda area? need pics pls
@barren karma mmmm.... the two aesthetics aren’t that off, it’s kinda dark tho. But it doesn’t look bad. Are you going to add on?
I can open my island up if people want to come and get some ideas/have a look around?
@woven drift i would except i have the same problem here :/
@barren karma It does look a bit out of place, since your island has more of a small suburbs town vibe. You can make it work tho if you add some of the towny vibes into it c:
oh!! yeah, im gonna add on DW!! what would you guys suggest adding to make it suburb-y? these are the only market stall designs ive found that i like LOL so i need advice real bad
@warm dew The best music / restaurant theme goes to you my guy. You NAILED it. That’s actually amazing
@vapid herald thanks a lot
it means a lot, I was stressing so much about my restaurant if it looked good
@barren karma street signs, fish markets etc. idk if you’re doing a theme but the Japanese market district stuff goes very well with urban things
oh, i mean, suburban!! like... small town, home-y?
am i the only person who doesn’t have a theme? like i’m just sticking with having a nice island with pretty terraforming yanno
I've opened my island up, if it's helpful to anyone I'll put the Dodo Code in the no-fee-island-visits channel 🙂
@barren karma I'd say add a bike or 2, put a drinking fountain and you could add some of the chalk drawing on the ground c:
Hmmmm.... Trees, farmers markets (fruits) use simple designs. Uhm..... maybe like make use of the silos near it? Hmmmm.... it’s already really nice just gotta expand it a little
@green imp I don’t have an actual theme yet so 😄
ty ty!! will do
its not super different, is it? ;v; i love the stall patterns and dont wanna change them, but if they contrast too much...
I dont know why many people dont like rock climbing walls or ice partions for outdoorwalls
@green imp i don’t have a theme because i can’t choose one thing. like i have a road right next to like a cottage core-ish turnip garden
Anyone have entrance ideas for peoples who’s RS are kinda close? 😊
@warm dew Its the first Mexican themed area I’ve seen and you def nailed it. 🔥🇲🇽
@green imp I didn't have a theme in the beginning, some people just find it easier to work around a theme c:
@tropic slate mine is bit close. But would you like to see mine?
Helpful criticism is greatly appreciated :)

@wary hemlock sure!
I used a bridge to hide that the water is coming out of the wall
Actually just DM me if you want the code it's easier 🙂
yeah i like just terraforming cliffs as pathway guidance and sometimes waterfalls, then flowers. i’m also working on a market place (eek)
eek
now im anxious the designs dont fit at all :C
@barren karma Nah, the colors are okay, it just looks a bit industrial. When going into the area you want it to stick out but not too much. I think your idea is great! I can’t wait to see the finished product!
@barren karma It is kind of a hard contrast, but I think you could make it work! C:
Finally, jeez.
hmmm.. alright!! it is only a tiny area after all. its gonna be a forest to the upper right LOL so it might not be that bad
@hallow ivy the dude in there annoys the shit outta me
How is Redd showing up relevant to #island-designs ?
@vapid herald thanks a lot
is there any improvements I can do to my band area?
it looks like they decorated for redd.
its what i immediately noticed, anyway.
@shut lodge i was talking about how i wanted art to decorate that part of the island earlier, i should’ve elaborated though
anyone have ideas for flower gardens?
No worries, thanks for clarifying
Glad you got Redd to get art to decorate your island
Redd is just a pain, Nintendo please fix his spawn rate. I need more statues pls
How does this look so far guys?
Open to suggestions for additions, or just feedback in general!
here’s my entrance
Here’s my really small library in case anybody has small areas
my friend literally has a side of beach LITTERED with fish waiting for CJ. like i lag WAY too much going over there
Also does anyone have ideas for behind RS? 😊
@formal trench you can only have 8 stairs so you cant get more after but i looks really nice
@warm dew hmmmmm.... I’m looking at it, and it appears you have a river next to it on the left? I’m not a big fan of hedges unless it’s a garden esc area. There isn’t a huge amount of space, but I do think adding maybe custom design rugs (Aztec or Old style Mexican heritage patterns on the brick flooring) could work. Hula Dolls for floor dancers, uhm..... let me visit your island tonight, I’d love to help you brainstorm!
@woven drift ahhhh i need this or i think i shall die 😂😂
I just moved it
@woven drift thx!
reworked my RS area to fit in some instruments 
@woven drift Wait, really? i already have 5, idk how many more i’ll need but i do have some plans
Post ur smol areas
I've run out of inclines, it's so annoying.
@half cosmos do you have the path code by any chance?
Same, I just need one more incline for a project. One 
I have like no inclines but I didn’t plan a path
@hallow ivy yeah its really annoying same with bridges
PLEASEEE I NEED STALL MARKET INSPOS PLS🥺
Zzzzzzz
made a city entrance ✨
does anyone have an outdoor post office design to put all the mailboxes in?
@rich lynx my prayers go out to u omg
Genius post office idea
What do your neighborhoods look like? I’m struggling deciding on how to make each villager home have a good amount of space and look good with the other houses
Hey, can I see some island maps? I need terraforming ideas
@woven drift I like that a lot!
Howdy! Was working on my entrance but I'm a little iffy about using these wood planks for the entrance. What's ya'lls thoughts on 'em?
Neighborhood
@woven drift Wooooah, that looks sooo good! I love it! c:
yeah i got 4 people in my island so putting 4 mailboxes next to each other in an outdoor post office sounds nice. im sure someone alrdy thought of it and i just wanna draw some inspiration!
@silent bronze i think they’re cute
my stall market area
@true kindle I've never heard or seen anyone do that actually! That's super creative tho!
I seriously want someone to come look around my maze, I spent ages on it, and my stepping stones lol.
I just wanna say, all of you have great island designs. Don’t get discouraged and give up. Real talk. 
I seriously want someone to come look around my maze, I spent ages on it, and my stepping stones lol.
@rich lynx ouh im down to come visit
I'll visit @rich lynx
teensy bit more progress!!
I need some ideas on how to improve this part of my island im stuck 😔
@barren karma Your doing great! C:
if i changed the squid stall to the bamboo pattern as well, would it look less industrial? ^_^
I need some ideas on how to improve this part of my island im stuck 😔
@stiff tundra maybe tiki bar?
@stiff tundra id turn that bad boy into a Sea port area. Lots of fish models, stalls, etc
oh, or this red pattern.
WAIT NO!! even better!
which one of these is less industrial and more.... small-town market?
@stiff tundra if you go on safari and look up best picnic blanket custom codes, you can find blanket designs and perhaps make a pic ice area
@jolly raft I could send you my map via DM. Feel like I posted my map too many times haha
Hey guys, I just finished designing my island, but I only have one level waterfall. So if I want to catch a fish like char (it says I can catch it on a Clifftop River?) can I catch it on the waterfall or do I have to go on a mystery island tour? I might have to re-design my layout 😭
@woven verge I would love that!
@barren karma The Bamboo ones look super cute! I'd take either the yellow or red one to match your the path!
Ohhh celest is on my island
@pearl pike ouch that must be annoying
i see, i see! i feel like the red is nice......... does it fit the rest of my island? its certainly less industrial (for ref again, heres a vid with a lil bit of my island)
https://twitter.com/makoshards/status/1270138190309933056
Does anyone know any ideas to fill up large spaces on my island?
@pearl pike you’d have to have any body if water on a cliff so a waterfall doesn’t count unless u have some water above it
@vapid herald sorry to @ you, you've just been a huge help in this process.
Ok thank you all 😭
@formal trench I have a list of stuff to fill your map with, I'll just dm it you if you want it c:
any ideas or furniture I should put in this area? it’s like laundry area idk what else to put here
@vapid herald was thinking of doing something like this 🤔 how do I get the fish stuff from cj tho? He’s never given me anything
now i gotta decide between yellow or red bamboo for my market. whaddya think, dream? i cant choose, bc i want my market to fit in with the rest at least a little!
what do I do??
@barren karma the bamboo stalls look so good! do you maybe know the creator code?
@barren karma i think red but yellow would be nice too 🧐
maybe red would fit the suburban style more, idk
@formal forge i gotchu~ they're all under this creator code!
@barren karma I say go for red and add contrast colors with other objects! Or maybe go for yellow and keep the color palette in the red range, but I'm not an expert tho haha
Tysm!!!
this is my island lol, v symmetrical
mmm... the red fits a little more with the rest of my island. ill keep it, i can always change it later ig?
@torn isle wow my patience could never
it took me forever and now i hate it 😋
it took me forever and now i hate it 😋
@torn isle me every time i finish something
i thought i liked it and then i came on here and,,, damn. everyone here is so creative
i wish they sold bulk flowers nd that in collectives of six. because then an even number would SERIOUSLY help when it comes to ordering them out
Can I hav 2 gold
@torn isle Owww damn I felt that in my soul. I usually then am too lazy to remove it and get used to it
yeah lol i tried to redesign mine a few days ago but i just can’t, i’m not creative enough for that fkskjdks
my entrance- nice. my resident services- nice. my market place- almost nice. my residential area- a shit hole :))
AMSNSMDS
@woven verge Forgive me if i’m wrong but i think you were the one who told me i should do barrels and fake art on the hidden beach, here it is! (1st pic is w/ dramatic filter, 2nd is normal)
@hallow ivy Oh haha, that was me! That looks sick! Love the black lilly too. So spooky. 10/10 scared and intrigued
@green imp i joined around 6:20 so yea we have haha, and ty
oops-- accidentally hit 5 star making my market
Anyone got a complete island I can tour? I can bring a gift

@bitter otter #690093605821480980 / #mysterybags-and-yardsales
@hallow ivy lmao
@hallow ivy oh so yall in america, i’m vibing here in britain it’s like one am
@green imp lmao I'm in the UK too!
Can i see everyones fountain area. Furniture/pathing you used and how you set up your seating
It's eight over here Brits
This WAS my area with my fountain but i put a outdoor bath here instead
@green imp Ya'll vibing in english speaking countrys, I'm just chillin in germany lol
@manic kelp 7:18 for me
i like to think of myself as an exterior designer
@manic kelp in england it’s one in the morning phaha
finished this area yesterday 👌
@woven verge hey neighbour 😎🇳🇱
heres my fountain! :') its nothing too great, but it makes me happy. (seeing this still makes me worry my market contrasts too much LOL :'))
my switch sounds like its gonna explode u H
@woven drift i’m sorry, WHAT
@woven drift baha mine does that when i’m catching a mahoosive shark
I DONT KNOW HAHA
That's 100% nervous laughter
i love how we’ve gone from sophisticated island decoration to what time of day it is to where we all from to talking about our nintendo switches exploding
@green imp Hahahahah ikr
@barren karma Oooo, that looks cute af! I still say it'll fit in nicely!
I've been chatting for way to long and should be in bed but this is addicting
Any tips on how to block off my island for trades?? I’m finding it hard as the beach is so awkward to block off
@barren karma wow i need to learn how to place trees nicely, this is rlly nice
Hi I saved this video yesterday I think off of this chat and I was hoping to find the owner! I wanted to tour their island 🥺👉🏾👈🏾
anybody else find it hilarious when you catch a great white the size of ur island before casually putting it in yo pocket
Ok mini update i did some terraforming again haha 😂 I don’t have any good outdoorsy furniture and suggestions for furniture?
@green imp ocean sunfish as well
id like to show parts of my island that belong to the STREETS
first we have
the whole thing my island is a mess✨🧚
@stiff tundra i might take some inspiration from this as i’ve been looking for a place to put my lighthouse
@green imp Any shark tbh. Also the casually taking it out of your pocket to display it.
hi guys what should i put in marshals yard ?? 🥺
OK BUT IM CACKLING AT UR ISLAND NAME@woven drift
I need some suggestions for what I could do with my island. I've tried adding some path near the entrance, but nothing is working for me so far.
@barren karma omg thats so pretty!!!
why it so close to the airport omg
@green imp for sure! I’m still kinda lost and this area is so small 😔
@stiff tundra Maybe a little stall, would be the perfect place to make a small fish market! c:
@woven verge i love how she just holds it. I think in new leaf when you caught a sharks they’d say, “GAH! Why am i still holding it?” i miss that dialogue
any furniture or extra stuff I should put in my mini laundry area?
i miss in new leaf when reese used to work in the shop
I miss new leafs furniture variety
my resident services doesnt line up with my airport omg
I also miss how in new leaf when you caught a sea bass they’d say, “What? You again?” @green imp @woven verge
@verbal marten an old Fashioned washtub might look nice?
@verbal marten Maybe another hammock or a washtub?
@woven drift I like that mine lines up with the airport, but it gives almost zero room to do anything.
@hallow ivy YES omg because 90% of what i catch is sea bass :/
ty guys!
tbh off center resident services > ones that line up perfectly. I find very linear terraforming a bit boring, but it’s just imo
@woven drift mine does
I just unlocked terraforming can anyone send me some pics of cool stuff you’ve done! Tysm!
If you guys want to have random discussions unrelated to #island-designs please use #acnh-chat⛱️ thanks guys.
@bitter inlet my resident services is slightly to the side but that works fine because i can’t have an off leading path way towards it
I have a diagonal bridge to mine, wouldn’t be possible if it weren’t off center~
i need.... ideas.....
@barren karma what about a fountain in the middle
YES
I just unlocked terraforming can anyone give me some ideas tysm!
@barren karma ramen shop! with diner/wooden stools or ironwood chairs in front
@bitter inlet But one that lines up with the airport is easier to work with. If it's of by a bit you have to use a diagonal path. If it lines up you have more options
hey someone wanna come to my island? dm me i need an opinion
@lyric pecan #690093605821480980 / #mysterybags-and-yardsales
@barren karma Maybe add a katana for some flair or some bamboo to match the stalls? c:
@woven verge lining it up seems more restricting, since u have to make ur entrance linear to complement it
hmmm... but where to put the bamboo?
@quiet musk that is really helpful!!
Someone very helpful helped me finish my rainbow fountain! 💖
Anyone know any creative ways to show off every type of flower that isn't your typical orchard?
I thought so too, is merely a repost
@bitter inlet I'd personally say that you don't have to complement and make a straight path. One can def pull of a curvy path. Tho that only is possible if you have enough space between your entrance and RS. So I'd say that having an off center RS if it's close to the entrance is better than having it line up. Makes things spicy
Is there really only one green flower?
@woven verge where would i put the bamboo??
im thinking of a flower field,
using a customized beach towel to make it seem like the beach towel is grass and lay in the flowers :0
There's weeds if you're thinking of more green to put on your island. They don't lower your island score that much if you spread them out
Anyone have any ideas that I can fill this space with? Preferably items, not flowers :))
white swinging bench!
when in doubt
use a taBLe
Anyone have any ideas that I can fill this space with? Preferably items, not flowers :))
@prisma anvil a picnic blanket next to the river! (custom designs)
Hello just got my new design tool for my island can anyone show me some cool ideas?
@barren karma Maybe you could put some around a fountain/outdoor bath? C:
@prisma anvil Maybe a little DIY area? ^^
Thank you that sounds nice 🙂
I need some opinions of my representation of a garden tea party
Looks great!
Nice super cute! 
10/10 would drink tea at. Looks gorgeous!
Can anyone help? My rock garden splits down the middle so there’s exactly 3 rocks per acre but ive only gotten 2 rocks to spawn.. and ive looked all around my entire island and i see no rocks
I have 6 rocks all in one place where does that info come from?
Should I fill that gap in the back?
Love all the ideas, it’s a spot that only I can get to so I’m thinking something pretty to walk by. I already have a diy spot, two picnics, a sauna thing, and a fountain. Maybe like a garden wagon? Anyone have any like cool items ideas?
@dapper thicket Maybe because of the spawn rate? As far as I know only one rock spawns per day, so maybe it just hasn't spawned yet? Not an expert tho, just heard it somewhere
Yeah i get that, but ive timeskipped one day at a time and they stopped spawning after the 2nd day
Does anyone know if it's possible to make a gacha machine area or has anyone come across something close to that? Lol
Does anyone have any ideas for furnishing the pier?
@last creek I'd say leave the gap and maybe make it symmetrical to the one in the front C:
@dapper thicketOoo, I see! Do you have a picture of your stone garden? Maybe that'll help us see the problem? <:
@dapper thicket could be that you’ve filled up each area so that the rock literally can’t spawn. Happened to me! Haha. There was a tree too close to where I wanted the rock to be! The moment I cut it down it spawned.
You can do a custom design on the pier to look like you have turtles hanging around
Ill show photos, thank you guys!
ok, i have a turtle design but im gonna need that code
i HATE the one i have
Does anyone have any ideas for the tailor shop outside?
WIP💖
My residence inn is RIGHT in front (a little left) of my airport, meaning I must have a small entrance. Anyone have any ideas?
@loud belfry this is how I did mine ☺️
@last creek dont be shy, drop the code 
Just finished this moon pool, I really love these
@latent shell thank you
@last creek do you happen to have the code for those turtles?
@loud belfry This is Mine! C:
Photos of my rock garden for those trying to help!
Lf island I can visit for inspo?
Wood paths wont stay... just to prevent rocks from going there
Sorry guys my phone is being whack
hi i need some inspo so if you have a forest island pls pm me 🥺
Anyone have spooky islands?
So does anyone know why my rocks wont spawn😔
Any advice on my flower garden? W.I.P.
Anyone got ideas for an outdoor restaurant?
@dapper thicket HuH, now I'm stuck. I don't see any reason it why it shouldn't spawn. The trees are far enough away and I've seen this formation work before.
Thats what im saying! Im just like
Stumped
badum tsh
@dark geyser i have a forest island 😅
Here's my little caffee/restaurant, hope it helps c: @steel night
@last creek how do you get those red shell things?
Anyone have the turtle custom design?
It’s A DIY, you craft them @atomic hatch
@woven verge ty
looking to explore someone's island to get some inspiration
I NEED STALL MARKET IDEASSSSS
@modest canopy I think it should be up there if you scroll up a bit. Kayla posted it a moment ago c:
I just finished this beach area, i feel like something is missing where my player is standing... any suggestions?
@hollow echo Here's mine c: still a WIP tho
I NEED STALL MARKET IDEASSSSS
@hollow echo oooo @patent sky
OMG URS IS SO SEXY
Does anyone have a natural zen themed island that I could tour/see pics of? :^)
@woven drift hdhfhfhfj fucjcfkk mines kinda in between ? its natural and city like
@woven drift hdhfhfhfj fucjcfkk mines kinda in between ? its natural and city like
@hollow echo I'd love to see pics!!
@hollow echo dfghztfgbh Tysm ahh
@restive tangle what is this path called I’m looking for this
@restive tangle maybe some floor lights
@gritty bluff Let me see if i can find the code for it
Does anybody here have a picture of their terraformed land before all the decorations, then the added decorations after?
Trying to figure out how to make my entrance fit in with the water village on the side.
Sorry if it the map looks super messy. 😅
I guess I'm looking for inspiration for the entrance. (I searched in the channel but I didn't see ones that click on me.)
@restive tangle Maybe a mic for karaoke?
@woven verge Oooh hmm I would've never thought of that :O Would it be strange knowing that this is attached to a japanese style marketplace? I tried to make this section of the beach more fancy than the other side which looks like this
@hollow echo hi
do you guys think i should give beau a lil library or a farm?
@patent sky Do you happen to be the stall market god?
is there any way to check the creator code of paths you've downloaded from in game?
@woven verge idk but here's opal gulch (big WIP)
@woven drift heres one w my village where half is city themed, and the other half is forest like 🙂 and then my street market
Just finished my hula section!!! Should I add rattan stools as a sitting area?
@wet ore yes yes
@coarse jewel little library!
My island is complete! 
How do you guys know when clutter becomes too much clutter 🥺
