First villagers area in the making, what do you all think? Any changes you'd make?
I'm jealous u have the design space for those qr paths
@woven drift personality and chatector wise who are they?
@river cypress first picture is hornsby, he is lazy and the second is Roald which is jock
I love the moon chairs ❤️
@woven drift Do you happen to have the code for that path?
@river cypress gimme your star trees xD
Thank you, I too will have to pass xD
Maybe make Roald a gym? Or a little like lumber jack thingy lol @woven drift
i have so much empty space on my island idk what to do with and i thought i had quite a few elements
@river cypress thanks for the suggestion 
@amber moon can you make me one I can give you back the materials latter
@river cypress thanks for the suggestion
@woven driftmarhsal says your welcome XD
recently i have been really disliking my entrance and idk what to do since its so close the rs

@oblique fulcrum love it!!
wow is awesome @oblique fulcrum
I think I missed a memo somewhere on keeping things natural...
Ok colonizer (is joke)
LF a cottagecore island to visit for inspo!
@unborn bronze thats honestly so organized, I aspire to that if I had the energy lol
Everything is in grids and I have way too much empty space now
Any tips on how to improve this entrance?
ur island gives me sane person vibes @unborn bronze
@light hemlock maybe another cliff level for more waterfalls and red flowers
@safe thistle oh, you should see the bunny park
mine on the other hand
@river cypress how did you get the stars on the trees? 😮
Shhhh we dont talk about that
I got them from someone’s else and we don’t wanna talk about that in this channel rn lol
Mine is simple

Chungus
Some nova lights there 🤩 @amber moon

@unborn bronze work of art 🥰
what should i do to this area?
That’s the 1 diy I have never gotten... those star frag lamps. I would use those ALL OVER MY ISLAND lol
2 questions:
- Should I have this tv here or should I make the panels look like A movie?
- Should I put those marketplace decorations in front of the red curtains?
That’s the 1 diy I have never gotten... those star frag lamps. I would use those ALL OVER MY ISLAND lol
@amber moon dm me lol I can craft!
😍😍
All my design ideas went into my own garden I have no creativity left for my villagers
@unborn bronze people have done their areas based off of their personalities and hobbies. Others do exterior house and exterior furniture matching
@warm dew I'm currently the only house in the villages with space for a garden, I probably need to move them apart a bit to do anything with design
what should i do to this area
@median salmon a marketplace would look really good there :))
@median salmon that’s a pretty long area, best thing I can think of is a boardwalk fair with little games or a marketplace
can I pls see pic of a cafe area for inspo c:
anyone wanna donate to me? i’m trying to redo my island but i don’t have enough money
alright, thank you!
i just took down my whole entrance
Wait a bit, someone will reply (:
@prime dragon
Here's my park. just a little small area with all the fruit trees and some natural looking furniture and mushrooms
I kinda want to match the color on the custom path with the default dirt, anyone have a base color of both dirks? (the light and dark ones)
Flowers will also work. I think I'll swap out the roses for flower variations. but if you can try to also use weeds to give a nice natural feeling
Should I use that Red and Yellow banner decoration? Or just red curtains?
@warm dew I think it looks better without the banner :))
@woven drift ty!
Opinions ?
@frozen granite very nice!
Thank you it’s inspiration form thst horror island
@prime dragon this is a park I have between my residential services and a resident street
ohh !! ty !! I was actually searching for a playground but that’s my fault , I said park , looks super nice tho
Anyone have community gardens I could use for inspiration? Thanks.
does anyone have entrance inspo for small spaces
So I have this moon shaped lake/peninsula (putting Nova lights on the little islands) but I need a somewhat natural but space/star themed path to go from the entrance on the right and around the moon. Any ideas?
Does anyone have an amusement park theme/ spot on their island they can send a pic of?
beach area I’m making! 🌴✨
(wip)
Can anyone send a pic of their villager yards/residential areas please? I'm looking for inspiration, though rest assured I won't copy yours! Btw I've seen the pinned comments and I really liked the layouts, but Id like to see more images.
Does anyone have a picture of their maps? I’d love to see some inspiration!
Can anyone send pictures of there museum area need some inspiration
@west gyro this gave me major inspo! it’s beautiful
La map
@final salmon Looks better at night since theres mushroom lamps and star frags
my beaches are still so empty T_T
@zealous sinew I’m glad 🥰 tysm!
@final salmon
My beaches are filled w discarded hybrids
@analog salmon
welp i've spent the past two days fully upgrading 3 houses
Noice
@analog salmon here are my villager yards~
enterance ideas?
hazel be shootin hoops tho
looking for entrance inspo!
@stoic knoll @magic cypress try searching “in:island-layouts has:image entrance”
Fun video
which villagers have home exteriors that would match a tropical theme?
@stoic knoll copy this → “in:island-layouts has:image entrance”
into the search bar (upper right bar on desktop, click the magnifying glass icon in top right on mobile)
thank youuuuu! @storm bluff
Ok thanks for the idea
This channel has me constantly torn between having residential neighborhoods and scattering the houses 
i'd say neighborhoods are better for organization purposes, usually you wouldn't want them scattered unless ur making a more natural oriented town
@pseudo rune you can always do both hahaha
mine are scattered a bit but that's cus they represent different areas of the town
I have a lightly urbanized and natural aesthetic so both suit me and I do have both. But they don't look like some of y'alls
everyone is just so inspiring!
Hehehehe time to deny this glitter goblin
Excuse the POOR quality photo but How’s my butterfly garden coming along? Still a wip! Anything need changing?
@atomic hatch omg that’s so cute 🥺 hmm maybe a bit more flowers near the Butterflies and where your standing
@storm bluff Coco watering her plants has me dead Hahahaha
Anyone have cafe inspo pics? 🙂
Does anyone have creative ways of planting their flowers? (with furniture, other trees etc) I have so many flowers and don't know what I should do with them around the island :c
anyone willing to show their entrance? i need inspiration ahhhh
@river cypress why lol 😦 she loves watering flowers
can i see someone’s sorta zen/bamboo area
@lilac plinth what i do is do color pallets so like a cotton candy theme or pastel or whatever u want 🙂
I kinda want to have my villagers have a “villa with beach access” does anyone have pics of it on their island? Some ideas ?
@quiet nest
oh thats niceee i love the terraforming you did ty! @silver basalt
oh thats niceee i love the terraforming you did ty! @silver basalt
@andrew.#0972 Tysm!
@lilac plinth haha I just throw those suckers on the beach
Does this look fine or does it need to be changed up
@manic kelp so creative haha 👏
I know its not something to post here, or idk where, but if someone is bored and likes to decorate islands, ill pay to someone to help me out to sort flowers around my island ( im stuck) i dunno where to put them x)
I got ACNH like two weeks ago or something and finally got terraforming. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do with minimal furniture/bells?
Cat island is complete on the same day I finish my island renovation!

There is one more I have for the cat island Olivia
I like your Rudy pick @gusty shard
Yeah Olivia is on my list, I'm gonna eventually swap one of the peppy cats for her 😂 and Rudy is my favourite jock cat 😍
I can get her in boxes and u can have her ?
Oh that would be amazing but it's almost time for bed for me 😓 thank you for the kind offer though! 
Ok
hi! i can help anyone out with there island and there theme :)) mine is cottage themed. i would love to help anyone else out with anything
@idle summit send pix of ur aethetics
@tiny tangle the way I earned bells to start off so I had money was by crafting stacks of fish bait and selling it in #materials-and-tools. Then I started buying and selling turnips. As for furniture you gather it as you play by going in shops and finding them in trees and balloons. If you want specific furniture you can buy it in #furniture-trade.
What should I do with my island? I need inspiration 😫
Oh geez flatten terrain
I flattened the whole island to start fresh with terraforming
@signal musk think of a theme and the vibe you want for it and then go on happy island designer and plan it out. Start by deciding where you want your buildings and where you want your levels and rivers and go from there.
Or go for a desert theme
Thank you @oak thunder !!
yay cute
hey, anyone has a pattern that simulates the in game dirt colors?
I have been considering making my villagers houses in the shape of two constellations (I used paths as place makers) but I don't think I have enough space for the second one. Where would you out it? Or should I give up on it altogether?
Any other suggestions on how I could organize my villagers?
kk thanks
I made a boat on my island I need ideas for this open space on said boat any ideas
Add some beach chairs, natural garden tables, coconut juice and life rings
I was thinking a juice bar in a different area because it’s a tropical cruise theme
So with looking at YouTube and reddit at people’s market stalls I decided to make my own! And I figured out how to link online game pictures to my social media! What’d you think of my market stall area?
My wedding spot of the island any thoughts 💭
I dont normally like the wedding set but you make it WORK
@rapid mesa I LOVE the petals on the floor!
THANKS 😊
anyone have a 5 star island
can me and my friend look at someones island for inspo?
made a small DIY area! ✨
DIY sign made by Reegs:
MA-7543-2541-0827
Do this pattern look so in my island
@atomic hatch i love the brick path! do you happen to have the code for that? 0.0
My game lags when I walk by waterfalls. Not even crazy amounts of them..is there anything I can do? It's really frustrating to be dropping frames
Does anyone have any ideas for the museum on a fairytale cottage themed Island?
@solar turret you’ll probably have better luck asking on #game-help-questions❓
@river cypress why lol 😦 she loves watering flowers
@storm bluff cuz the watering can is a space away so she’s watering the floor 😂
You would think lol
Need some help making a medieval looking cellar 😖
@polar salmon you can add some sack of bells, bottled ship, pots or something. But it's great already 👏
@polar salmon some skeletons :DD
I made a Link's Awakening thing 😄 Is there anything I should add?
Those are good ideas! Thank you @wheat mirage @grave lagoon
I know I can't be the only one, but i'm stumped on my island entrance. I didn't think about it at the time, but now its becoming a huge problem. With a five-block gap between the airport and resident services, any ideas on what I could do?
Do you have a picture of your map or something?
Oh yeah! Give me a second
My resident services is pretty close to my airport so I put sort of a small water feature, I can pull up a screenshot
So is the grass patch empty in front of the airport?
is there a way to have 2 different path designs next to each other with no grass line between them?
that grass patch is 3 blocks wide, the path in front of it is two blocks
is there a way to have 2 different path designs next to each other with no grass line between them?
@woven drift if it’s original paths from acnh, that’s not possible
I think with 3 blocks you can make a small water feature that goes up one level
or at least something to decorate
That might work for the time being, i'm going for the tropical vibe.
Maybe put some palm trees in sand and surround them with like flowers or something nice
That would probably work better, thanks a bunch!
i love tropical islands 
I’m in love with my little market, still a work in progress
I made a playground!
Unsure of how to decorate my side beaches/rocks (theyre not very big). What did you guys do with yours?
I haven't decorated mine, but I've seen people create small cafes or space-themed sets
@arctic temple i did a little fishing spot
I’m stumped on what to do for the entrance from the airport to the rest of the island.. any ideas?
@woven drift I did something like this with a mini water feature and then paths that go around and lead to the rest of the island
@rich tusk that’ll look awesome thank you!
@woven drift maybe instead of having a straight path to RS from the beach, put some cliffs around and create a kinda winding path? I'd for sure move those houses back, though. Whatever you put where they are now the villagers will probably use because it's close to RS
@uneven haven for sure, all the villager houses are super temporary I’m just saving enough bells to move them all
If you put your villagers' houses in the back or spread out, they'll go into more areas (they don't use space far from houses or RS) and make them look lived in
Why is it so hard to get frozen treats? I need it for my shopping area and it will be complete😔
This is my home area!!
p sure you can make them in winter that's why @wet ore so it's basically like mushrooms
current campsite area and zen garden :3
Mine is, too, @woven drift
I'm in the Northern hemisphere. I have the regular snowflakes but I need the large ones. @rapid fog
ooo wanna trade i got some large ones but have no regular
Don't give up! Just look at what other people do and try to take ideas from it!
can i see marshals yards????
Thoughts? 💭
@wicked girder you already know thats amazing lmao
Woaah so many statues
Wow I’m so uncreative. I don’t know where to even start and this gives me anxiety 😅
Finished with the sunset view 😂
How do people have so many wedding items already 😮
would anyone come to my island to rate it and gimme suggestions ? I’ll pay u 1 nmt
The game is supposed to be relaxing, not give you anxiety. Just look around and see what you like! You can put something similar to what others do in your own towns. You don't have to have a single theme. You can just add things that make you happy. Everyone can make something beautiful. Some people are also just... you know, the people who get featured on YouTube tours we all gawk at
I want to do that as well, Im thinking of doing 3 tiers with ramps and rows of houses but idk
true my island is so ugly and undeveloped but idc i have fun lol
Hello! This is an entrance walkway I wanted to share. I was wondering if anyone can tell me the qr code of the edges of her path? If not, can anyone give me some path edges to help me out? Thanks.
Ghost of a soldier reliving the same war day after day
My “little” flower breeding area what do you guys think (i know the gold roses dont breed had a spot left)
@uneven haven that’s real
@woven drift @rich tusk I kinda did that. Here is my map. They're all very spread out. Some have big yards, others have tiny ones... But there are big communal areas around them.
My mini Disney!
How did you guys start? Did you remove all the water and cliffs and pretty much start on a flat “island”?
What's real, @candid inlet?
And yeah, I've spent a lot of time getting ones I like. I just kicked out Sylvia after more than 2 months of trying.
My cottage core area and beau’s little farm hope you like it!✨🌲
I just worked mostly with what was already made, @tacit wing . I tried to keep mostly true to the layout of the island.
@uneven haven your comment about the game and how it is supposed to be relaxing not stressful:)
I just worked mostly with what was already made, @tacit wing . I tried to keep mostly true to the layout of the island.
@uneven haven I was thinking of just taking the streams and cliffs off to help me better but wasn’t sure if it would mess anything up
You can if you want. If you have a specific layout you want to do planned, that makes sense. If you don't, I'd just start focusing on small areas you have ideas for and move a mountain or two when you need to.
Lol this game always makes me feel like I'm missing out because I don't have the prettiest island or villagers, but its honestly more fun just to play with what you have 😄
Hey, my resident services is diagonally across from my airport. I have little to no space to work with, however I really want an elaborate entrance that doesn't require symmetry or a lot of space. If anyone can send theirs for inspiration (or other pictures found online) I would appreciate it so much!
anyone with a heavily cottage core vibe island wanna tour mine and give me some tips on what to add
Idk I kinda miss the randomness of villiagers,, kinda hate I have the option of getting non uglies I'm a pleb
A work in progress of my castle. 2 houses are being moved to the back
@woven drift gotta get on dat turnip market
It's way more exciting to find Marshal on an island or in the campsite than to spend hours upon hours farming NMT to buy him.
@winter crow maybe consider directing incoming traffic from the airport to the sides and having people either go to other areas first or just making the entrance have a ton of waterfalls with a winding path?
@wispy estuary actually the fish bait market for me has worked. poses in 24 mill
Does anyone have the video of the person who did the Mediterranean island? I think they posted it earlier today
Fish bait is so tedious tho,,, rather spend 2 hours in a line haha
Turnips r really easy, I made 20 mil in a few weeks
@uneven haven okay that sounds like a good idea, thanks so much for replying!
for me i sold it for 10 NMT a stack because i’m petty and make people pay high prices @woven drift
I've seen fish bait go for 1 mill a stack.. idk how well it sells tho
No idea what to do in that tiny little area :/
Tiny library for the tiny area,, and seats
maybe a little performance area so villagers can sing
Has anyone used the 3D ISLAND PLANNER APP and would be so kind to help a girl out!?!
Ty @round compass
No clue what to do with the circles areas. If anybody wants to come to my island and check out my vibes, dm me. All are welcome
@red canopy maybe make a little stage area with a music player so your villagers will sing there?
@uneven haven ty ill try it!
I have a concert sort of area it’s the cutest 10/10 recommend
Any good neighborhood ideas for my villagers?
a little orchard/winery concept I just finished! any other ideas for things to add?
@oblique fulcrum add flowers!
I need some ideas for my campsite. I've got a big area for it but not sure what to do.
I know I messaged before but the more help the better, if anyone has any ideas with what I should do regarding an entrance please help me out! My space is especially limited considering how close and awkward resident services is from my airport (pictures from your own island or pictures from online are great too, helps with reference)
Hey guys, I need some guidance.
The housing area is about 1/4 of the island..
I like the idea of each house having a yard or area to match the villager but im open to suggestions.
@oblique fulcrum oooh barrels! To hammer home the winery vibe
@worldly goblet I really like to make villager yards and have a few done that look really cool! I like how it can show off their personalities. I say go for the yard area for each villager idea
can anyone help my layout my island desin
Finished my museum area finally!!
@neat zealot thanks, i do too. Im just not sure how to with the island layout in that corner.
Hey everyone, I’m looking at doing up a little garden shop on my little area next to my campsite and was wondering if I can see photos of whose made a garden shop on there island 🌴
my little garden shop @soft sparrow
Weird question but does anyone have any ideas for what I could do as a nod to Attack on Titan on my island?
My island entrance ft. Bob. I've gone through like 6 different entrances and I think I've finally settled on one I like.
Oh and alfonso (best gator)
@viscid wagon what a grand entrance!!
Weird question but does anyone have any ideas for what I could do as a nod to Attack on Titan on my island?
@lethal spear potatoes..?
Jk I dont have many ideas for this but, I would think of the landscape from the anime or make areas around your buildings that reference AoT. (srry if its not very helpful 😅)
@lethal spear a big wall for the entrance :'oooooo and walls for the inner circles so maybe your least favorite villagers in the outer and favorite in the inner although no villager deserves to be eaten :'(. you could use simple panels
sorry if the info is wrong i stopped watching aot a long time ago
Anyone have a picture of those natural looking dirt paths?
I kinda wanna restart my island because of where my town hall is... should I?
Does anyone else feel EXTREMELY stuck with a messy island and no idea what to do?? Any help on how to get started?
more progress on my beach💕
Clear a space on one side and decide what you want there. Work in small chunks and take it bit by bit.
I really like how my shooting star area turned out! It's really nice here's pictures of it in the day and the night! I still need a telascope but mostly it's done!
@sick ivy that’s a really good idea. I have so many things lying around because I had an idea and it didn’t work so I’m just all around stressed out!!!
Center or off center shops within the fenced area?
@warm dew of centered
@wheat mirage have you put in a lot of work into your island? if not then you can go ahead or maybe you could try to work around your rs
@woven drift mine is in the center with stuff along the front and a longer walk way up to it! But I do like the side idea like you have going!!
@rapid fog I haven’t, but it’s hard to work around it when it’s so close to the airport and not even centered. And I have no idea what entrance would look good with that
Any Feedback?
@rapid fog @quick wadi thank you !
i made this restaurant but it feels off is there anything i should add
@woven drift try adding a fence?
@woven drift instead of the stall you could put a brown den desk but facing backwards and then add a desktop computer on it? also you could use some qr hat codes on the serving cart and on tables, i can help you if you want! :'D
My Greco-roman mythology island is coming along finally, but I’m so stumped on my waterfront shopping centre 😭 (entrance 1/2 and then a crossroads and the beginning of my museum art trail)
@last mica love it!
@rapid fog tysm ! 🙏✨
Well I definitely feel intimidated again after seeing all of these messages on here with GORGEOUS islands
does anyone have market place inspo
:')! @lime sundial nooooo i bet your island is very pretty! i think islands are extremely pretty when the person has put a lot of work into it, doesn't always have to be visually pretty! :')
@safe thistle found these pics on twitter
@rapid fog aw thank you so much!! It has some pretty spots. I just have no good layout I guess so it just looks rough
@rapid fog please do 😭 I really don’t wanna void my villagers and things, especially right when I get raymond by coincidence
Hey guys! I have this area and not sure what to do with it. I was thinking a tiny fair/amusement park area but not sure.
On my island I already have a library, restaurant, doctors area, and green house. Maybe a little picnic area would work? Open for any suggestions and such!!
@wheat mirage what does your map look like? Mine is very close and off centered also and I have a very small entrance that is no where near grand but it doesn’t look bad!
@wheat mirage I’m trying to redo mine and add some trees instead but you could do a cool waterfall on the sides or something!!
That’s how close it is 😂
@lime sundial it's ok!! you can always ask us if a spot is looking weird
@wheat mirage ok! i'll be sure to dm you if i find any :')
can someone help me with how to lay out these waterfalls behind these two villager homes
Currently trying to make dedicated areas for my villagers. Here's Sheps' area.
@dim quail very nice!
Every time I see these cute personal yards, I regret not deciding to do that
Thank you!
LF some kind of shed idea for next to my flowers with water cans/tools anyone has ideas?
Anyone have good island layouts I don’t have a idea rn , urban or island like would be awesome
NAGITO
@wheat mirage oooo you could terraform cliffs from your entrance to your rs like hugging it and then do smol waterfalls and put flowers
I made this, it took too long and I hate it and love it
@woven drift I hope that's placed where visitors can see it overheard, because it's gorgeous LOL
@sterile violet you could make them 1 block in width then make them go in front of the incline to make some hopping paths :')
see the thing is idk if villagers can use hopping paths
cuz I don’t wanna limit my villagers to a certain area 😦
I need an opinion on my island. my dodo code is 5353. dm me if my gate is acting weird.
I am trying to make a small airport lounge next to my DAL gift shop/museum, but not sure what else to put in it!
Here’s my Mexican restaurant, wanted to make something that was special to me and my family. Any feedback or advice is appreciated!
@wheat mirage omg i came up with an idea, you could make this as your entrance and then make the left of it resident services
There’s not enough room for it 😭 I counted how many steps and it takes 18 (which isn’t a lot)
@sterile violet oh then i guess you could make them going straight down and then make a spot when the waterfall is blocked off by rocks so the villager has land to cross!
@warm dew your restaurant is beautiful here is my mini one
@sterile violet that flag is so GENIUS! Love it
@lethal thunder send pic pls! :'). @warm dew i think it is perfect!!
@wheat mirage oh nooooooooo do you think you can try making a mini version? like reducing the water area?
@sterile violet np
@sterile violet those cooking conditions don't look very sanitary..
@rapid fog it would be tiny to the point it wouldn’t look right ☹️☹️
@woven drift they aren’t I made this when I was a 1 star
@wheat mirage how about these pictures?
if anyone has an outdoor library can they please show it? i need some inspo 🥺
how small exactly? can you send a pic?
They all look great but I literally wouldn’t be able to. I’ll send a video of me walking
New entrance 🙂
@rapid fog
oke how about this?
i'd say your best bet is to have it hidden from view, have your entrance curve to the right, and have a path lead into it from the right
It looks better during the day, but here you go @frigid kayak
@frigid kayak here’s my ugly library
my island island is a theme that i'd say most people aren't looking for, so i don't think what i have would help 
@wheat mirage ooo maybe like what konno said, this is what i thought you could do but like flipped https://youtu.be/GoAI7QoveT4
I finally got the time to work on Sylvari 2.0 this week. Started with my entrance because I figured this'll be the easiest since I've already pictured it out in my head even before. I wanted to build an entrance that serves my visitors, but at the same time, makes them wonder ...
anyone have a cottagecore or forest themed island? I need inspiration for neighborhoods, shop areas, and just island inspo in general lol
This is a curiosity shop but it has bookshelves lol 😂 (also this is the OG old Eden, other people were just posting their own photos of Old Eden earlier lmao)
Hey guys I don’t know what to do with my Villagers houses
@stiff matrix have a horizontal path leading to their areas, wrap fences around them, place flowers that match the house color/villager color, and place things that fit the villager's personality!
@stiff matrix decorate the outsides based on them like their interior or personality
@dapper flare @rapid fog thank you both so much 🥺🥺🥺 this might be my best bet after all 🧡
@patent sky @sterile violet @stable iris thank you guys! your libraries look great :))
Also finished this on the second island yesterday
I need help with my island entrance badly
@woven drift @dapper flare tysm
@patent sky omg how do you even make it look so good i-
Hahaha ty I'm finishing up that area today, I'll probably post pics
YAY!!
Thoughts?
i'm looking for river idea, I have two river mount at bottom of my island and it sucks
New beach front area. Thoughts?
You guys got any good entrance ideas? I’m running out of inspo 😅
this is my current library, what kind of seating furniture pieces would look good?
My Old Eden entrance is a little boring but here lol
@frigid kayak you should use rattan chairs!
Double sofas would be nice and cozy @frigid kayak
@frail raft i saved a lot of entrance pics lol
Any tips on how to make a good entrance with the layout that has resident services next to the airport
@rapid fog omg thank you so much lmao
@radiant pagoda I have the same issue
@rapid fog BRUH THAT'S GORGEOUS
@stable iris @frail raft thanks for the suggestions, i was leaning towards those too :))
Anyone have panels at there nooks cranny?
@frail raft lol np
@dim quail oh noooo these aren't my pics i just found some inspo on the internet! they are gorgeous thoo
feel like its too crowded. thoughts?
Oh HAHA thank you though for sharing it! I'm trying to make a natural looking island so it's good inspiration. 
ooooo lolo, here is MY entrance
that's adorable! I love it!
@rapid fog your island looks like it could be part of the museum bug area
omfg it's amazing egg
@rapid fog your puts mine to complete trash
oh boy time to totally destroy my entire entrance now LMAOOO
My island has half the stuff you guys show and everyone is lagging on it (me included)!!!
@dim quail same
@rapid fog i love it! I really need that lily player
@somber shard do you have a lot of custom patterns or something
@dapper flare i think it looks perfect tho 
@woven drift awwww thank you 🥺🥺
@red cosmos @somber shard NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
im doing a goth island and i have n o idea what i should do with my beach if anyone has any cool beach layouts i'd like to see them for inspiration!
@woven drift i can make you one if you want? :'D
I wish we could lay down rugs on the floor
LF a cottagecore island to visit for inspo!
@somber shard do you have a lot of custom patterns or something
@patent sky not really I use the game's pavements etc. Idk I think I just have all of my houses and stuff to close and in one spot, or too many flowers (as if such thing exists!!)
I have nuclear waste
@rapid fog oh please dm me and I can get you something you probably dont have
@patent sky thats really cool my boyfriend wanted to do something like that on my island too-
ok!
I don’t know if this is the right channel to post this on but.... I’m Getting my squirrel island together!!! (All were from NMT islands, not bought!) bye bye Judy and Stitches
I'll send pictures of the tiny area i been putting the most effort on lol the rest of island still needs but i been too lazy and inspired
This is my little are in front of the Residents Services.. any thoughts? lol I have a feeling I need more furniture in that area
Hey guys do y’all have some inspiration on yalls villagers houses/town I am thinking on doing like color codinated backyard or something like that pls!!
this is one of my villager houses that is color coordinated
Ty @neat zealot
Anyone want to show off their map? I need some terraforming inspiration. I just flattened everything. 😭
@frail raft maybe bushes next to the log bench?
my town map is a mess lol
I have two maps @silver relic
@patent sky can I come to 1 of them they look nice
@patent sky those villager lineups are bomb
Hey guys do y’all have some inspiration on yalls villagers houses/town I am thinking on doing like color codinated backyard or something like that pls!!
does anyone have outdoor library imspo?
@rapid fog okay! Thanks!
@patent sky the detail!! ( ゚д゚)
Opal Gulch is still really really far from done and I'm TT on Old Eden rn + flower explosion so maybe another time lol
Today I finally finished my rock garden!!!
Hey guys do y’all have some inspiration on yalls villagers houses/town I am thinking on doing like color codinated backyard or something like that pls!!
Those are really gorgeous @patent sky !
I just moved my house but now I'm not sure what I should do with it any tips or ideas?
I am trying to go for a "viking" feel to my island, and I am just so lost on where to start with the terraforming.
Art class :)
Hey guys do y’all have some inspiration on yalls villagers houses/town I am thinking on doing like color codinated backyard or something like that pls!!
@stiff matrix I think it all correlates to the villager. A jock villager wouldn't have a bright cutesy backyard, nor would a peppy villager have a dark theme. You should think on that
Ty @hot plover
@flint mason omg the painting
did you mispell 1-2 nmt?? @daring ginkgo
@tame bloom nope
@daring ginkgo you're actually not allowed to advertise in here, check the pins ✌🏼
@weary vale hahahaha I know!! So funny
No one is advertising lmao
@daring ginkgo you're requesting a service lol no one wants to design an island for someone else
Does this look stupid?
You say no one wants to design an island for me but yet I have 20+ messages 😂😂😂
honestly there isnt even a channel for that type of stuff maybe try the acnh here we just disscus and share parts of our island
so uh i just got terraforming and i dont know where to start

@wet ore its good
For 1-2 NMT? 😂 personally I only take payments in Raymond fleas
@woven drift I know right! I literally just finished re-doing my whole island and now I wanna re-do it again 😅
Anyone got recommendations for a small town?
Neskowin, OR is great in summer
Anyone have ideas on how to make/decorate a villagers yard
Made a little drawing area overlooking my campsite 😊
Anyone have ideas on how to make/decorate a villagers yard
@earnest wasp I either put lawnmowers or tire toys lol
dont know if this is the right chat ill delete if it isnt, but does anyone have a cute cottagecore island i can visit for inspo💕
Ohhh okay thanks red! That gave me an idea
Epic lol
I made a little flower market today
@cobalt valley I like it!! I think it would look nice with the wood path too if you wanted to try that 🙂
Does anyone got any inspo for a beehive area?
Do you guys think this looks good?
@undone anchor its okay, i think a bit more detail could be added
@woven drift not specifically designated for bees but incorporates some
I was hesitating between those two but on the wooden one I can't plant flowers @weary vale
Hey guys do y’all have some inspiration on yalls villagers houses/town I am thinking on doing like color codinated backyard or something like that pls!!
@woven drift not my pic but I like it a lot!! I wish I knew who to credit
thank you i guess?... not much can be done in a game @hot plover
Ahhh aww omg tysm!!
its cloudy
Hey guys do y’all have some inspiration on yalls villagers houses/town I am thinking on doing like color codinated backyard or something like that pls!!
would making an entrance before i go crazy with terraforming be better?
anyone with both river mouths on the bottom of the map mind sharing their maps? I have no idea how I should lay this out
@stiff matrix not my image but it looks nice
@stiff matrix this is fritas and merengues diner housefront. It's stupid but it makes me happy
I think so, I ended up having to renovate my whole island because of a couple miscalculations lol
Can I see design resident services that some of your guys have? I have a very woodsy theme and can’t really figure out how to make it look nice behind it
@somber shard so cute!!!
Here’s Whitney’s front yard
@rapid fog I'm moving ketchup up there too xD
@woven drift @somber shard tysm
@woven drift I made an island but I've seen a lot of natural islands make cliffs behind and on the sides!
That's what I did. Used to have a really packed neighborhood but spread the houses which filled in a lot of the space
@woven drift here’s what i did around my resident services
Any ideas? Redoing the whole island but I am just stumped on what to do. The entrance is rough to make sadly
@woven drift here’s what i did around my resident services
@storm bluff may i see your map?
@undone anchor my map!
@radiant pagoda what parts are stumping you the most?
i have barely any space for that, yet it's good inspo
@weary vale Right now the two things are the entrance and what to do with island homes
@fresh gazelle
@radiant pagoda entrances are hard because there's so many options! I think you could put a cliff in between your RS and airport and make a path around to make it feel farther. With the island homes most people either do a neighbourhood or scatter the houses around 🙂 I would look a lot of maps and see what others do to get inspiration (here's my old map)
just designed stitches yard 🙂 it’s a little toy shop
@crisp nimbus soooo cute!!!!
I just unlocked island designer and I need help with a layout anyone interested
Anyone have a good rustic/woodsy museum entrance. Completely tore mine down to redo it and need some Inspo
@bold rock not sure if mine helps but it has lots of flowers 🌝
@weary vale I love it actually! I have white and yellow flowers all over my island, they’re the best looking ones
Hey guys so idk we’re to put my villagers houses without I racking up to much space I want them scattered hv any ideas this is my map
I'm so jealous of everyone else's islands, I have like no artistic vision for most of mine :(
Hey guys so idk we’re to put my villagers houses without I racking up to much space I want them scattered hv any ideas this is my map
@stiff matrix Whenyou also have audie, sherb, merengue, marina and judy also ew al
@dapper flare entrance look beautiful!! What's the gold/yellow thing next to the blue roses?
Had northern lights tonight
Want to put a stall for my theatre drive in that serves snacks. Black or dark brown wood?
Hey! I’m making a little fair area in front of my RS. Any advice? Should I scrap the idea? 🙂
@subtle charm lol 😂
@short leaf im winging mine. Start with an area and let it take me wherever. Also trying to make best use of items I already own. I only buy stuff to complete something if I really am missing it. It's turning out well
@crisp nimbus that’s sooo adorable 
I saw a beautiful poppy field someone made on their island earlier and wanted to use it for reference but lost it unfortunately
Anyone have inspo for an English garden/statue garden?
Anyone have a sushi restaurant on their island and can send a photo in the chat? Or something using an imperial set?
@marsh iron nah it works. Maybe to make it flow from the RS to the fair, you could put some type of fencing between the two sresdn
@marsh iron nah it works. Maybe to make it flow from the RS to the fair, you could put some type of fencing between the two sresdn
@warm dew that’s true! I’ll make some and try it out. Thanks!!
@lilac plinth hey! sorry i didn't see this, but they're pisces lamps!
@subtle charm I made a sushi/ramen shop for Zucker idk if it helps
Hey guys so idk we’re to put my villagers houses without I racking up to much space I want them scattered hv any ideas this is my map 🗺
@marsh iron it seems your going for a cute/natural fair right? I’d definitely recommend hedges!
I am!!! And thank you! I thought about it but I’m still playing around with ideas and seeing what other stuff I can use
@subtle charm I made a sushi/ramen shop for Zucker idk if it helps
@fossil fern Mine is also for zucker, ould you pls pm me it! I love it and I actually want to use it as inspiration 🙂
@marsh iron fences
Thanks!
@crisp nimbus that’s genius
hey can someone help me ! i need ideas that i can use my mush lamp with
Hey guys so idk we’re to put my villagers houses without I racking up to much space I want them scattered hv any ideas this is my map 🗺
Is it bad that i have no theme? I just decorated areas as i like them and used too much paths 😅
@silk shoal ive seen a lot of people scatter them amongst trees for a cool illuminated forest vibe
Hey filberts house (: and marhsal barging in lolol
@silk shoal I put mine at my museum! :)
campsite idea
anyone know how i should deal with the entrance of my museum since its 3 spaces wide instead of my normal 2 wide paths?
I just finished dragos yard, thoughts? also what song should I play on the speaker?
@silk shoal I put mine in my forest
@lilac plinth can I see the front of your museum? I want to make a collectibles garden besides mine too and it's my next project
@somber shard i kept it simple! Hope it helps tho
@woven drift tysm <3 he's the best boi
ah i see
@lilac plinth it does! Is it ground floor?
I’ve had tons of trouble designing due to the left river, any ideas regarding that side?
@woven drift thank you!
Any ideas on how I can make my entrance any better
How’s this? Or should I do a different approach? 🙂
@somber shard The grey museum path is a mix of the regular arched grey path and a see-through custom path. Is that what you mean?
Hi, my sister is getting tia but her island is pink themed and all of her other villagers are pink, what should she do?
@somber shard Oh wait yes! It's ground floor and then theres levels that display the fossils c:
@lilac plinth no I mean if it's elevated like in second tier or ground height (bad English+ tired)
@lilac plinth I've added you so I can show off what I come up with tomorrow
what are these things called
@woven drift Market Place Decoration. Are you looking for them?
@lilac plinth yeah thanks
Should I flatten my island because I don’t know what to do with this layout when trying to create a villager neighborhood?
Does anyone have examples of island with mushrooms?
@untold lily Best bet is to work on the rivers, I’d say.
Just made this school/library and bowling alley let me know what you think
LF outdoor Japanese restaurant examples, need some inspiration😭
Some of my other fave spots on my island 💖
@silk shoal
@spare wasp do I erase the top sections of the rivers? The second river leads to my secret beach that is on a cliff.
Update: I love the hedges!!! I think I’ll do a hedge maze/flower area 🙂
The start of my entrance
I made a little fitness area and I’m kinda proud of it lol
@untold lily If you’d like an entrance to your secret beach for Redd, I would clear the top part, yes. I did that and it turned out well
Here is another angle, thoughts?
Looks good! I did something similar @ivory lodge
@misty pier that’s so cool! I’m waiting to get a treadmill lol
@spare wasp I put two inclines there already just to get down to the secret beach.
Can anyone dm me some secret beach entrance ideas? I need some inspo 🙂
heyo guys what would u recommend for fences on a stone path island
Is the easiest way to start terraforming to just flatten everything & put grass on rivers?
and would it be too weird to have stone pathing on the first floor and a different pathing on the 2nd floor of the island?
Y’all which type of lamp do u like more? I’m spacing them out a bit. The one on the left of the river or the right?
@untold lily Ah okay, since that was done, in my opinion, I would not tear down unless necessary.
ty @lilac plinth and @misty pier
@prisma anvil I think the shorter lamp?
@median comet pls ignore how the paths r different lmao
Can you guys flood my dm with cottagecore type areas to fill large empty patches of land? I’d really appreciate it <3
@stiff matrix the way i did it was decided what theme would fit best for everyone’s houses, if anyone’s houses looked alike and could be neighbors, and then designed little yards for all of them (still in progress). u could put peppy ppl snooty ppl etc in the area where ur buildings r, and more nature looking villagers in the wild area
@crisp nimbus tysm!!
@cedar venture where did you get those fences? And what are they called?
@worthy lynx jailbars. They're DIYs
@cedar venture where did you get them!
I got DIY from someone on Nookazon!
need help deciding what to put in the center of this little area i’m standing in. it’s sort of the entrance to my residential area, and i want it to be pretty and elegant. dm me if u have any ideas ^-^
@modern mica you could put a fountain
LF museum entrance inspo with very limited space! (like 8x8 rip)
lf a way to store tools outside :)
this is what i have so far, any ideas on where i can place a flower garden , dosent seem like i have much space
@modern mica you can put a statue
This is my museum entrance. Thoughts?
redid entrance again
dianas farm
Any one got any country side residential area inspo?
guys i finally gave in,
i downloaded
the path
@rich ivy if you want it to seem like a countryside like I did my suggestion is to not make one “residential area”. Spread out the houses, give people lawns
@rich ivy if you want it to seem like a countryside like I did my suggestion is to not make one “residential area”. Spread out your houses, give people lawns
@woven drift I split my Island into two the right sode being Urban and I want the left side to be abit rural like a village or something.
What could I put in this small place
trees lol
@rich ivy Hmm... I guess that’s different from mine where I have a town center with all the amenities and the rest is countryside
@fringe shell a fountain? Beachside seating area?
@rich ivy your...username... 👀👀😳
@rich ivy yummy 😳
@woven drift actually I just thought of putting flowers thank you tho
Ok
@rich ivy I love your username too lol... maybe show some pictures of your island so we can give better suggestions?
Can I have some campsite inspo? I’ve been looking everywhere and I can’t find anything lol I need help. I also made a little path to lead up to it but idk what I should do with it
Can you guys help me decide which ramp to use for my museum entrance?
@fickle tartan I like the one on the right
@rich ivy I love your username too lol... maybe show some pictures of your island so we can give better suggestions?
@woven drift hmm... wait haha I changed the Rs to Ls for my asian immersion lol
does anyone have like a little neighborhood idea? cause i really want to put them all together but idk if it will look good
@trim geode what do you want this neighborhood to be like?
@woven drift maybe make like a little ramp and have all the villagers houses distributed throughout different levels
@trim geode do you want it to look urban, suburban, or rural? Any theme you want it to abide by?
Could someone please show me there flower breeding garden because I have no idea
@woven drift rural
@trim geode something like this? you said different levels you can change the decor
@woven drift thats really cute thanks
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/681277827244621855/719901443955490836/Tzuny.mp4@trim geode I got this but might be not the one you're looking for.
i wanna start decorating, but idk where to start? Any tips?
Does anyone happen to have the full map picture of this island?
I’m moving my villagers houses and I did one and he looks really lonely😂
@woven drift thank you!
I tried to replicate it
We should have island reviewers... people could request that someone come to their island to give them feedback on the decoration, layout, etc. Like have island reviewer be an official role and people can sign up to review others’ islands
Opinions on best places to put villagers houses?
@brazen horizon get a theme then find furniture matching the theme you want
@tacit wing depends do you want the houses close to one another?
does anyone have any inspo to fill empty space ?
does anyone have any inspo to fill empty space ?
@ancient marsh flower waterfall?
Opinions> @tacit wing depends do you want the houses close to one another?
@woven drift yes not like super super close but all in same area
@tacit wing Could you take a picture of your island map?
Could someone please show me there flower breeding garden or at least where to like put the flowers I want to breed
Here. I just started terraforming today so it’s messy and nothing is there. I’m not a fan of the three tier
does anyone have any inspo where the town hall is right next to the airport?
I was thinking of putting them up on the second tier
i put all of my villagers houses on the second tier
Feeling like I need to replace this bridge with a brick bridge but I’ve been procrastinating to do so for so long now lol
@ancient marsh oh I like that
@tacit wing you could put a river around the north side of the plaza and connect it to the River mouth on the East side, then extend the cliffs to just behind the river and put the houses up one level
i feel my island is chaos and would love anyone to come take a look and help with pointers
Feeling like I need to replace this bridge with a brick bridge but I’ve been procrastinating to do so for so long now lol
@woven drift I agree with the brick bridges 100 percent
@woven drift thank you!
@tacit wing that way to get from the plaza/airport to the houses you cross a bridge then go up a ramp. No problem!!
@tacit wing you could put trees and a fountain at the top of that ramp so the houses can’t be fully seen until you’re up the hill
I was thinking about putting trees around/near the houses. I wanna put a little park up there too
what else should i do to improve this area
Anyone have good island layouts I don’t have a idea rn , urban or island like would be awesome
@brazen horizon id say start from your entrance and work from it.
@plucky compass fencing? maybe some sort of plant too
@plucky compass I’d add some shrubs so it’s not sectioned off from the surrounding area but it also doesn’t seem crowded
trying to design a marketplace with lots of stalls and need some inspo. does anyone have any good pics?
anyone have any ideas what i can do behind town hall in this space ?
Does anyone know what I should do with this empty space ?
@coarse jewel might be a lot but something like this looks really nice
@woven drift ahh thank you, i was thinking waterfalls like that
Does anyone know what I should do with this empty space ?
@orchid coral maybe add some benches and more flowers! some fencing could work too
Does anyone happen to have the full map picture of this island?
@pseudo radish that's @bitter inlet 's island !
Stitches’ yard (once I’ve moved his house here)
Hello! I’m wondering if anyone has used this path on snowy ground yet and if it looks okay?
@wraith acorn it looks great on snowy ground
@wraith acorn it looks great on snowy ground
@spring haven hi! Do you happen to have a photo? Thank you for replying as well! ☺️
Let me take one, one sec
i got rid of my cliffs to try and make more space. now i want to have a few cliffs in the shape of clouds to give it at least a little bit of dimension. it's a rough sketch, but do they look like clouds?
@wraith acorn
@wraith acorn
@spring haven oh my gosh that’s beautiful thank you so much! 🥰
i was debating whether to use that path omg cuz i like the pavements of the game and how they show up on the map but this just convinced me hhh
Np (:
i cant decide if the arch makes the entrance look crowded or not. what do yall think?
Haha I already started using that path today
Yea my map used to look so satisfying before I used that path@brittle isle
Does anyone have a cool resident services design I need ideas
@willow anchor you can’t edit the plaza
Before
@woven drift thank u !! i haven't converted it to the actual game just yet </3
@willow anchor what I did was I put both shops in front of my plaza and the museum behind and to the left of it to make it a town square
Before
@spring haven that map looks so clean wow
Now it’s a hot mess
Anyone have good island layouts I don’t have a idea rn , urban or island like would be awesome
Will show a recent one with the path tomorrow 😭
(my dog just ran out into the pouring rain sjdhfj i got distracted whoops)
@spring haven i pay too much attention to how it looks on the map </3
@woven drift woo m glad it turned out alright then ^^
@brittle isle same, I’m too ocd, I gave up some of my need for structure for the beauty that is that path 😂
I disabled my minimap
Anything else I could put here? Anything I should change?
@warm dew maybe change 2 machines for a a snack one
@warm dew some plants, maybe another bench or street lamps
Just finished my 2nd floor room, only one more left to go. What u guys think?
And add a gumball machine
@clever minnow looks nice!
@olive sequoia yellow or red gumball machine?
@spring haven Thx! 
@olive sequoia yellow or red gumball machine?
@warm dew red maybe and a black snack machine also maybe some boxes or a trash bin
Can someone please show me there flower breeding garden
Does anyone have a plaza that is dead center and super close to their airport? Trying to figure out ideas on how I can terraform and make the entrance look nice with limited space
@woven drift Ty! 
@exotic carbon not mine but something like this and add space for new flowers to spread
@woven drift how much land did it take up on your island?
@exotic carbon uh its not mine but depends on how many different breeds you want
hey can someone give me a list of some items that would belong in a large amusement park? i have a lot of space reserved for pietros abandoned park
@undone sigil a lot of the items you get with nook miles are good for an amusement park you can also add stalls with custom designs
that sounds good! any good creepy stall ideas?
@undone sigil i dont really know any stall ideas but i saw this custom design and tough you could make some sort of maze
maybe this idk
oh thanks! i was looking for something that said that. a maze would be a good option to use all that space
Finished up my space area for now
hey can someone give me a list of some items that would belong in a large amusement park? i have a lot of space reserved for pietros abandoned park
@undone sigil here’s my amusement park area for now, still need to add the robot hero in place of the giant bear
Any suggestions on what to add to my entrance? I feel like it needs more
@vernal oxide more plants on the cliff it looks kinda bland
@woven drift i felt like it was kind of bland but i didn’t know what to add. what kind of plants should I test out?
add something in the very front of the entrance
that little 1x1 space where the waterfall ends could have a small statue
@boreal solstice The arch makes the entrance less empty, in my opinion it looks great!
@vernal oxide maybe different breeds of yellow and white since you have those already
some white roses would make it look even better too
anyways i really like how you designed it ngl
@vernal oxide Flexing on all of us with your 5 star island
@undone sigil @woven drift ty!! I’m definitely going to look into those.
@jolly depot oh!! i think I'll keep it in then. thanks 🥰
@jolly depot LMAO those are actually from my previous island (I got a new switch) I hated my previous island so so much
Made a new gym area on my island and I’m pretty happy with it
🤢 this used to be my entrance on my old island 👎please write hatefull, mean and rude comments
This used to be mine 🤢 then I seen everyone in this chat with amazing entrances like ^ and got disappointed 😂
imagine having an entrance to your island i’m suffering
The crown jewel of my island. Thoughts?
My new one imo is actually good, but Its too big to post in one picture 😭@vernal oxide
@jolly depot dm it to me 👀
is an entrance necessary?
@plucky rune no but it’s nice to have
just finished my entrance after 3 hours 😴
Depends on what u want in the end
👉👈 here’s a picture of my entrance,,, added more since last time tho but it’s more or less still the same
Can people show me their star gazing areas ? i need inspo 🥰
@woven drift want me to give you reccomendations on what to add?
oo the flowers on the paths are pretty
@jolly depot sure
Just a little snapshot of my neighborhood but god fauna is just so so pretty
@woven drift Mabye a moon in the middle on the 3rd level cliff, Moon chairs to the right. and on the 1st level Ide add 2 island with statues
@surreal peak
@jolly depot Statues would block the view, but I like the other ideas. Thank you!
Can I see someone's Nooks and Ables please?
@woven drift or you could add a sick fight scene on the top
@jolly depot lol no way it’s supposed to be peaceful what you don’t see is the small zen garden right behind where the camera is
@woven drift have you seen the frozen bear statue?
@jolly depot no I haven’t
I have some open space on my island and idk what to make of it
I made a new fashion show layout, just wanted to share! C:
What website do you use for terraform planning???
I don’t plan
@near spade maybe you could add floorlights those always seem to make them look nice
I barely edited my cliffs
Imagine planning
imagine imagining
@woven drift I think that anything that is big, unique, bright, and colorful would look good but its up to you
Planning stresses me out
What website do you use for terraform planning???
@vivid berry happy island designer
@jolly depot thanks!
@woven drift ty for that tip, ordering some now
I have a park, towns, cafes, lookout, im coming back from AC after a short break
@sly dock thank you!!
@tranquil rivet how about an outdoor cafe with a seating area? It’s by the beach so makes sense
@woven drift haha already have that planned :3
ok the person that made "the path" has some other reallyyy cute custom designs
@tranquil rivet an amphitheater? Put some benches and music equipment
“The path” like it’s fuckin voldemort
@woven drift I might do that, might do a garden area or woodsy area bc I have a Tram track that runs through it
@chrome slate shhh dont say there name that loud 👀
can someone post their map? i'm trying to get inspo for my rivers!
@tranquil rivet You’re building a tram network?! That’s so cool though these islands can be walked across in a couple minutes
@robust vapor 
@wet ore here’s mine, might change the water fall a bit but hope this helps
Also here’s my uhhhhh map
@woven drift haha yeah, i destroyed my island and remade it
@chrome slate that’s so cool but maybe you need another bridge so you don’t have to walk all the way south to cross the river
i made my rock garden today it literally took 4 hours ughhhhh
@pseudo elm that is so pretty!!!
I mean I’m gonna be honest I never notice I don’t have bridges up there
@tranquil rivet I think the tram idea is really cool are you gonna have stations
Yes I have two Tram stations :3 @woven drift want to come visit?
@wet ore thank you !!
And like, I love my little islands sooo
@chrome slate They are really cool! Maybe put a bridge just to the right of Nooks Cranny that connects to the island that already has a bridge connecting it to the south, then another bridge that connects to the island to the north. Kind of like a small hub
My map looks sad bc my island is legit all just design tiles T-T
Like this. Blue lines are bridges @chrome slate
Went from Left to right wahaha
- The bridge you put going up is literally going into a cliff. 2. There is already a stepping stone from nooks to that island, I think more than just the one bridge would be too cluttered, I want it to look natural. 3. The bridge you put going down would go right into my orchard picnic place
does anyone have any ideas of what I could do with this area? this used to be where my museum was but i didnt like the spot and im going to tear down this place. I already have a marketplace, orchard, cafes and bakeries, celeste viewing area, libraries, small farms and painting areas, please I am in need
@chrome slate oh I didn’t know that third point lol.
@next meteor Do a statue garden, I think I might do that
Yeah, it just wouldn’t make sense to put so many bridges onto my island, especially because my theme is kind of to be minimalist in terms of bridges and staircases
Before and after! Im still working on it but here is progress so far nonetheless xD
@chrome slate how about like this?
Good map? Hopkins? The taste here
I would die for Hopkinsssss 🥺
The dream lazy 
@boreal solstice what’s the path you used in your entrance? it looks nice
Man I don’t. Want bridges tho, okay?
@chrome slate wanna come visit my island to help me figure what I want to do with it?
@chrome slate lol ok, just having some fun
@tranquil rivet nah sorry im turnin in for the night soon
@chrome slate awe bummer alrighty
I’m looking for cute carnival ideas 😊
Just finished this foresty area leading up to dom's house ^^ First time trying out a forest theme since my island is mostly city, is there anything that looks weird or anything i can improve?
that looks so nice!
@restive tangle I like it a lot, maybe put a signpost at the entrance?
@woven drift Yeah i was wondering if i should do that! Deciding between the angled signpost or the one pointing in a bunch of different directions hahaha.. any thoughts? But yeah the entire area around the entrance hasn't been done yet hahaha, the path leading upwards goes towards the secret beach
Here’s my flyover to show how I’m trying to go for more like. Natural I guess theme
@restive tangle Angled one for sure... have it point towards the forest
Finally starting to be happy with how Maple’s yard looks.
@stable iris I like the path!
Thanks! I just made it ☺️
Judys yard
what do you guys think of my asian inspired cafe + bamboo beach area? this took so long!
i have a love for diagonal bridges
@west parrot I love diagonal bridges so much but my god placing paths leading up to them is so difficult q_q
My island layout is so basic I hate it. How do you lay out your villagers? Do you give them a neighborhood? Split them in half? Augh
@jolly raft It really depends on what you're trying to go for i suppose hahaha, there are plenty of great islands out there with one big residential area. Personally I like the ones where they split the houses into 2-3 residential areas, but i have my villagers scattered around my island
Looking for advice on my entrance from the airport. I feel like it’s lacking :/ music is Space K.K.
Ya, I have all my villagers in one area but I hate it. It looks so like, forced and out of place
I need some inspiration for decorating the space in front of the residence services. Does anyone have nice designs that I could look at?
Does anyone have any cottage core picnic areas I can use as inspo?
@jolly raft What kind of theme is your island? I have mine around the island since it forces people to walk around more and see the individualised areas of the villagers, well i say all of this but im basically redoing a huge part of my island atm and only finished 2 yards... I used to have a residential area and hated it too
I have my villagers in a little col de sac village with my house on the cliff immediately behind it, it’s really cute to me
I want it to be dense forest theme, but Im lacking a lot of the diy and furnishings to pull it off
@jolly raft Hmmm i'm not too sure how to pull off the forest theme, if you scroll up a bit i sent a video of the only foresty area i have on my island so far hahaha.. mostly have a city theme so i wanted to contrast ^^" I'd imagine in a foresty theme it would make sense to scatter most of the houses though, then make a common shopping area with nooks and ables?
Anyway to improve my drive in theatre? The lower right feels empty
i finish my entrance path and i’m very happy rn
My internet rlly destroys my video quality but here’s my neighborhood circle https://twitter.com/xanthismun/status/1272403496235499520?s=21 it’s not done
@warm dew Add a popcorn machine somewhere? Not too sure though, looks like thats your entrance and its a bit weird to put things there.. if anything maybe just a custom design on the paths
@restive tangle I have one in the top left, I think imma move it somewhere since it’s hidden
Anybody have a design for Zen garden?
Aaa I’m very proud of my campsite 
@warm dew try changing the fencing around the area, a stone fence wouldn't make sense in a modern drivein theatre
My new ice cream shop
@soft plaza which one would you recommend?
My house entrance☺️🌸
all of ur islands r so good omg
Oomgg
I LOVVE HEART PONDS
Hahahahaha ty @woven drift @gritty bluff
@warm dew ticket booth or place a clothing item to make it look like an employee
I’m too lazy to pay off my loan 
can anyone send pics of Raymond’s yard?
anyone know what flowers would go well w pashminas house ?
@gritty bluff Lol i straight up havent paid the final loan, we don't get much for paying it off so i just owe nook 2m bells
At the moment it’s a park but open to other ideas on what to put there. Idk what to with this space
@wooden sluice I would add more flowers, butterly models and bee hives
Should i use the giant teddy bear or robot hero at the entrance to a carnival/fair area? And is it weird to suddenly use a different kind of bridge on the island? I mostly use the red/brown zen bridges but it's a little strange using that to go in and out of a fair area, so i'm considering using another type of bridge, any suggestions? (I'm using country and hedge fences around the area)
@short flare here’s mine
thank uuu
any farmer's market inspo ? ^^
does anyone else have their plaza this close to the airport n how did they go about doing the entrance-
@quiet nest yes
@quiet nest i dont have my plaza that close but maybe having a diagonal path curve up to the lower right corner would look nice ? then just surround it with trees
@brittle isle that’d work actually- or something like it thank you
wow my island is trash compared to everyone’s
@quiet nest im not good at pathing tbh but glad i can give u somewhat of an idea ^^
@vocal pine i bet ur island is pretty as well hush 
any idea with that I can do with this area (it’s like an intersection kinda?)
maybe a seating area?
lil restaurant?
@sly cape flower bed maybe ? some random stalls selling stuff ?? a little guide panel for ur island perhaps ???
@sly cape fountain would look nice
possibly, I’m just not sure how to pull it off.
(from the left is RS)
(going up the incline is residential area)
(the one to the right of the two white pansies is pathway to camp)
(the one from down is exit from pool area)
@sly cape you could do some stalls or vending machines with potted plants
what are some ideas for like areas to decorate (besides like restaurants, cafes and what not) i’m trying to do a tropical theme :0
can anyone show me their forest/cottagecore neighborhoods? i can never find one that i like or seems foresty enough :((
^^^^^
I’ll see if this works
can anyone show me their forest/cottagecore neighborhoods? i can never find one that i like or seems foresty enough :((
@mystic pecan I struggled to make a neighbourhood feel foresty so I ended up spreading my homes around the map.
Does anyone have a river/pond with a resident’s home inside of it, by chance?
I’ll put vending machines/popcorn machines/candy machines on the sides if I still can
sadly i don’t have much space :((
I saw someone do an amazing job of it, Ill see if I can find their name or at least a pic
Anyone have any island name ideas?
I originally wanted to put a meme like that there but it might take too much space on custom design slots lol (sidenote: I changed this to only the text)
Flex some simple panel usage?
Anyone have zen garden inspiration?
Finally got a 2nd tower of Pisa to complete my entrance
i scraped my island and kept only my entrance that i was happy with. Any tips for how to decide on terraforming/ connecting town?
@timber comet i'd plan everything roughly using the happy island designer first before you commit. you'll have an idea in ur head when u terraform then
what river is better? (just made top pic)
I like top
the first one 🙂
gud , ty
the top one looks rlly good !
ty
@stray gyro I'd make the flow out of the pool a little narrower, it'll help justify the pool under the waterfall as the flow out would be restricted. Let me know if that doesn't make sense.
you mean on like the right side?
(top pic is newest)
I had it narrow originally and It didnt look right , I also think the bottom of it( where they connect) is to strait
basically add two tiles from the slant in ur new river and cut off one of the corners to have the pool kind of look like a C
Anyone have any ideas for the exterior of nooks cranny? I can’t find or think of any good ideas 😦
@brittle isle having a hard time imagining that , mind drawing it out on a app or somthin?
that looks more fairycore to me
my island is cottagecore themed
@mystic pecan
hey!
I posted pics of that island!
what sorta yard should i make
ooo that is cute i like it
@stray gyro kind of shitty but something like this is what gibs meant i think
My ables

@woven drift thank yoou. I wanted put wings on him without making it look awkward or weird lmao
@limpid comet wanna see mine?
Which bridge do you guys think would look best as the entryway into a fair/carnival area?
red zen or brick
Yeah, I’d say the zen bridges
My favourite areas on my island so far! 
I would probably use the stone one xD
Really? I have zen and red zen bridges on other parts of my island but i feel like they would look weird here, it's not a japanese vibe at all in this area hahaha
@limpid comet this my campsite
Any ideas on how I could make my carrot garden more suited for the snow ?
