Path is a pain in the ass to place down
This js on top but we wont talk about that oke 😂 (need to add stuff still) @viral breach
@viral breach i feel like houses and rooms are tough because you need a specific set while you can somehow make it work with what you got and make a nice outside
oh my goodness...I FEEL THE ABUNDANCE OF FLOWERS I'll post how much I'm suffering from that soon
Can I have a advice on this PLEASE
@warm pond it looks super good! You could probably do like some kind of seating on the sides? Maybe like a garden bench, or a public bench!! But it looks really good!
Atleast isabella cant complain the lack of flowers anymore 😤
I'm having some trouble thinking of ideas of how to make rivers look more natural
@vernal oxide thank you!
@icy flint that's facts though, my god I hate the amount of space between items and FENCES I just want em closer together dang it
@warm pond maybe have the tricera head facing forward instead of to the side so the sense of symmetry is maintained (sorta), and if you want a light source for that night time aesthetic have lanters where the bushes are and put the bushes beside that, besides that the floor lights look really cool at night but maybe have one infront of the tricera face for that sweet face illumination and maybe white streetlamps in the place the floor lamps originally are, hopefully that'll work out? uwu
Thank you so much! It's kind of a shrine to my childhood best friend Tyrone the Triceratops... I appreciate all the feedback and help!
@gray wolf what helped me was to look at some actual rivers on maps to get an idea of how they twist and turn, how they're narrower in some areas and wider in others. in general, if you can avoid long stretches of straight sides, your rivers will instantly look more natural
thanks!
Yoooo, Has anyone made a tea farm on their island yet? I just realized white cosmos look like chamomile
some of my favorite nature areas are villages that have rivers going through them where there surrounded my waters 🙌 I also overall like a more natural theme
What should I add to my dock?
when i was doing my rivers a helpful tip was i constantly kept looking back at it and thought to myself does it flow right and does it compliment the land next to it
YOU CAN PUT PATTERNS ON THE DOCK?!?!
did you do the fishing tourney bc you could make it a fishing spot with the stuff from that
i dont trust CJ anymore did his fish tourney and got 2 fish door thing back to back
You guys like my dock!!! That's awesome to get approval from others!
Yes, i love the colours. I used my dock as a medidating spot. Just one cushion and that is it xD
i made mine into a jail for my friend who went afk and never changed it
Hii, does anyone here have any island-designing tips for beginners?? I’ve upgraded Tom Nook’s tent into a Resident Services building, and yet my island is still empty because I have no idea how to design it :’)
How close to another bridge is too close? Would putting a bridge at the right, where I've circled, be too close to the other one on that stretch of river?
@distant eagle maybe you can but worst comes the worst you can always make it a little bit thinner to get the bridge connecting
i’m not sure if i like this or not, i’m gonna remove all the random flowers (the yellow roses and tulips etc), what should i add to it?
☺️
btw love ur island name @distant eagle
I love how in pocket camp I have all my dreamies
Epic? 🗿
Should I keep on doing quests for now, so that I can get the app to terraform?
Yes
^ yee
@gloomy galleon once you get k.k slider to show up you get it from the devil himself || jk toms a bean ||
aww thanks @warm pond
and yeah i'd thin that part of the river if i put a bridge there, i just dk how many bridges is too many in the same area
get tom nook in smash and hed just be throwing away our bells at the enemies
Does anyone have any good pictures or layouts of a botanical garden? I need some help with inspiration
@wheat tusk would this help?
Does anyone have any good pictures or layouts of a botanical garden? I need some help with inspiration
@wheat tusk i think have some but they are lost on my gallery. Try looking at pinteres! There are tons of inspiration and users with boards with random really beautiful inslands
i'm in the process of a rainbow garden where there are rows of different colors, but that's as much as i've got that's a more proper garden, every other place i have flowers except for breeding attempt area is just flowers plopped down around each other
@twilit lintel It does! I have some ideas like a main central area and then branching paths/trails. I can display my flowers, waterfalls and statues all over. Im just having trouble visualizing it.
@fierce vector I'll check out pintrest!
I remember seeing someone post a garden yesterday and I specifically remember there being an easter island head displayed. I cannot find it for the life of me
I have allot of ideas and stuff on my Pinterest , it's MammaLuigi💚. Or nutty4nintendo
opening up my island for a little bit if anyone wants to come check it out (disclaimer some parts are a mess since im still moving things)
what should i add to this? it looks rlly plain atm 
does anyone have any good ideas for judy’s yard? any items that you may have in her yard?
@woeful ravine some benches or some tables or lamp posts would go great
I also have a pinterest board of animal crossing inspiration, my user is @ yilinawang
good idea! ty!
does anyone have any good ideas for judy’s yard? any items that you may have in her yard?
@honeydew.Kylee#3147 I don’t know why but a pet bed would look hella good in there
does anyone have any good ideas for judy’s yard? any items that you may have in her yard?
@turbid moat
Try adding some star items like nova lights. It suits her design :3c
@wheat tuskits a gift from gulliver (:
how do you get the butterfly statues? are those just from Flick?

@gray wolf yes

@gloomy galleon np

Hey does anyone have any ideas that i can go off of for this area? Its right infront of my coffee shop (which is infront of ables and close to my enterance)! Id appreciate the help im so lost on what to do here lol
*I already have a lil sushi restaraunt, garden, flea market, orchard, surf shop and tikibar
Soccerfield would look cool with some bleachers and stalls to have maybe some refreshments. idk thats what Id personally do but then again u might not have enough space for the different paths
i stg AC better get more design spaces because Im already out and theres still so many cool designs I wanted to include 😭
@warm pond thank you soooo much!!
hey does anyone know like ummm how to make rivers and lakes that dont look like garbage cause i cannot figure it out
@gray wolf awww yep im all out of spaces :( so annoying i wish theyd give us more!
Petiton-
More villager spots
@sly dock if they did that we need bigger islands
did one of you say your pinterest was mama luigi, i followed the link and now don't recall if it was someone from here
wait isn’t dipper pines from gravity falls?
ye
the character? yes
How do you contact the animal crossing creators? Also do you think they would respond? Dm me if you know

does anyone have tips about to make a cute entrance where the town hall is next to the airport?
bee sting?
Help pls I’m trying to make a king of the pirates/one piece entrance and I’m kinda lost as to how to make it better 😢 the area I’m standing on will have bridge there tomorrow (forgot to post a pic lmao)
I have more of a natural theme. Haven’t connected it to the main area but it’s just off to the right
Hi! I need suggestions. I have the Sphinx, the pyramid, the telephone booth, statue of liberty, tower of pisa, moai statue, and the warrior statue. Is there any other world/global themed furniture/statue?
@terse bolt Pagoda
i need some more ideas for judys yard! is there any music player item that will match judys theme?
@limber ginkgo thanks!

hmm.... anyone have any ideas/items i should use in a surfshop/beach area? like i said earlier, im planning a spot for each villager - audie's up first!
I have this empty space next to the path that might possibly lead to my museum— I kind of want to turn it into a small music area but I have no idea how to make it look good :(( I’m going for a witchy cottagecore type vibe,, any ideas for what I could do?
@keen nymph coconut juice on a stall and some palm tree lamps and surfboards
Okay y’all, I wanna do a beach BBQ restaurant but I’m having major creativity block. Someone help me out 😅
@midnight jasper those mushroom items would look great especially if you find the ones that lightup. add that in with some nice vibrant flowers in a secluded cliffside would make it look great
@keen nymph i added a wave theme for one of my stalls and added things like some surboards, outdoor shower, a cooler, blanket, a ball, and a beach chair
anyone have any ideas for entrance with the town hall close to the airport?
thank you guys for the ideas!
@gray wolf oooh that would look really nice, thanks !! ^^
np
anyone have any ideas for entrance with the town hall close to the airport?
@terse hollow how many spaces? mine is 9
you guys got 9 i got 7
add more gaps to the path and place flowers in between there to make it look more overgrown
@terse hollow how many spaces? mine is 9
@limber ginkgo ooh thats cute
How is my entrance looking?
I need a lot of help. I want to modify this section, but I don't know where to change it...
I’m trying to find a new spot for my museum! I’m thinking where the red marker is?? Opinions?
Any helpful tips on what I can do with my island I’m a bit lost?
i finally finished my picnic area! thoughts?
i finally finished my picnic area! thoughts?
@fallow shadow cute! the cherry blossom picnic set would look nice there too
ah- i haven't got that yet- i don't time travel so it'll probably be a while before i get it
gotta love this little area on my island 😄
I’m finally satisfied with my island so here’s a before and after. Will most like redo parts once an update for more buildings and whatnot come
I sold all my extra fossils yesterday to clear space in my inventory and realized today that I should have used the australopith in my summoning circle 😞
Does anybody have any good island map inspo that they can send me because I’ve finished flattening my island but now I can’t think of anything
@north yoke whats your theme? my theme is tropical. heres my map.
How's my entrance? Should I change anything?
@north yoke and these are the different areas
I lost where island visits is help me
@surreal marsh give me a few mins and i can open up my island soon
Wait no I just want to go to that channel
@surreal marsh it’s under dodo airlines
@wispy jay so pretty!! if you wanted to add a little variety you could pop some shrubs up on those cliffs with the flowers! red hibiscus would be gorgeous there I bet
All that’s there is friend codes
@stuck trail oh okie, thx for the help!
Are you sure you don't have the category of channels compressed? @surreal marsh
@surreal marsh you need to go to the trades-rules-verification form under the marketplace tab
@surreal marsh verify at #721542917264638002
Ah, other people have better information than I do, hahaha
Hey y’all need some inspiration for my museum area and would love to seem some of yours
@rare barn heres my museum area. the front has a small fossil display while the back is an art gallery maze.
@velvet pendant can you give me tips on how to terraform
hi!! i’ve just reset my island, this is the layout of it currently. does anyone have any ideas for when i get the terraforming ability?
@twilit lintel thanks it looks great
My new Winter Farm, I welcome all suggestion for improvement!!
@steep tulip you get access to terraforming after you attain 3 stars and get your first KK Slider concert
Another angle for my farm.
@steady sparrow Perhaps add some garden lights!
@soft plaza oh i know that, i was just wondering if anyone has any feedback on the layout or if there’s anything i should change or add in the future
@steady sparrow Perhaps add some garden lights!
@strong shale You mean those Garden Lanterns? Yeah I probably will do that. Thanks for the suggestion
Can anyone show me there entry
@steep tulip I think making the middle part of the river less like a sine wave so you can maximize space for decorating

@dark adder Engineer spotted
Does anyone have any ideas for what should go in this garden?
Does anyone have any ideas for what should go in this garden?
@left owl You can refer to mine, just a few post up for inspo if you like. I got my inspo from IG: Yumabunnycrossing.
@woven drift perhaps put in those watermelon bouncy balls in there and some garden lanterns.
Okay, DO NOT post that whoever did.
Agreed
Don't worry about that
@velvet pendant can you give me tips on how to terraform
@woven drift
I’m actually lowkey surprised anyone would ask me haha but I didn’t flatten my island and I started aquascaping first
@velvet pendant so you started making rivers
@velvet pendant so you started making rivers
@woven drift
Yes! C:
I’m making a fairy forest, but the trees are still growing. (Sorry for lighting)
Anyone have some ideas of what to put in the back of thier island I've got a lot of empty space there?
@fallen citrus heres my map thats labeled with the different areas.
I've got a question about Merengue's Diner.
Tysm, wow your islands so full of stuff ☺️
@left owl yeah whats up?
Looking at the map, it looks like you put her house in the diner. does that ruin or contribute to the look of the diner?
@left owl yeah her house is in the diner set up. her house is in the back. while her front is the diner itself.
Huh, interesting.
Also would you suggest putting all your villiagers houses together or spread them out?
this is a very rough drawing but im sure this map idea could help inspire some people here ^^
@fallen citrus my villagers used to be together but when i made that area, i didnt give them enough yard. so i wanted to change it but i couldnt because there was no way i could redesign it without destroying the entire island. and i realized that i already have themes set up around the island, so i decided to move their houses into the themed areas that match. if they didnt match, i gave them a theme like sprinkles ice cream parlor and marshals cafe. while the other 2 that dont have a spot are in my water bungalow resort area.
idk how to feel abt this part :(( any tips on improving the way its placed/anything??
@grim stag maybe add some flowers and change the benches
@twilit lintel oh okay, all my villagers and next to each other rn but I love the idea of giving them a special area
@fallen citrus i even got rid characters so they fit the theme better because i knew i wouldnt have enough room in my water bungalow resort area for them
@grim stag I feel like adding some trees could liven up the scenery
@grim stag The pathing is not symmetrical so that may also be a problem
moving ruby’s home and i wanna make it cute and spacey but i have limited diys 🙄 any suggestions?

@scenic jacinth Flowers that match her colours, things that match her hobbies. For Chevre, I put a table, chair, and book next to her house because her hobby is education
@scenic jacinth maybe use sparkly custom patterns on the ground, limited DIYs/furniture can be ammended by some pathing and patterns
Hey! What incline should I put here? I feel like stone or white planks would look good but I also like natural, pls help!
Hey! What incline should I put here? I feel like stone or white planks would look good but I also like natural, pls help!
@dusky tapir I always go for the natural stone one. What paths have you been using?
@teal marsh I have a custom beige brick path but I use the stone path as well
she likes photography
My Queen was walking past hahah. But left or right side?? (Hedges or bushes)
@teal marsh I have a custom beige brick path but I use the stone path as well
@dusky tapir I'd go for the natural stone one then 🙂
photography and wants room to look at the moon so i have a moon for her but maybe a beach towel laying in flowers?
@vernal oxide my vote is bushes!
she likes photography
@scenic jacinth Oh that's a bit hard to do. I've never had a villager that likes photography. You could place small paintings (fake or real) for her?
photography and wants room to look at the moon so i have a moon for her but maybe a beach towel laying in flowers?
@scenic jacinth The moon is a super cute idea! You could get the small nova lights as well
i do have plenty of statues!! i can put my astrology stuff around her house too
I actually have 2 questions. One of them is I was trying to go for the garden and forest theme on the island. So all my inclines are white bc I figure it will look nice with the stone path but it might look weird with the wood pathway. Any advice on this?. I kinda hate seeing many different type of Inclines so I went all white but now I'm kinda regretting it.
Second one is this looks so sad, any advice :(
I hate flowers 😭
@scenic jacinth if you have custom pattern space theres also some cool photo designs out there
ooh!!!
omg thank you!! i’ll go plug that in right now! i’m excited to make her house nice since i’ve had her since new leaf i never wanna let her leave
awesome! glad i could help
@jovial spear If your going for a more natural fairy theme i would suggest using the natural ramp instead
What's a good ramp to match the Zen bridge?
I tend to use the wood ramps to match the zen bridge but natural can work too
I'll see how log works I think it'll be the best match to my paths too
@soft plaza I see tyvm!! Oh wow I have to destroy 8 of them and make build them again xD
i wish there was some sort of camera item i could find for her. i’m gonna see if i can find someone to craft me some nova lights and find some telescopes. i feel like purple and blue flowers might help decorate her house
there are caemera items in game, you get them from nook's
holy cow that’s perfect
i had no clue never seen one before!! i could use two of them i just gotta hunt it out, are telescopes diys?
Telescopse you also get from nook's
Does anyone have some nice small spa areas. Need some inspiration
@scenic jacinth I can make all of the Celeste diys if you provide the materials and I have extra telescopes if you want them
ooh!! i’ll dm you
Anyone have tips on how to make rivers look natural? I kind of messed up my river 😭
I think making sure your river curves naturally rather than at a 90 degree angle was one of my problems
Think you’re on the wrong server ashleigh
@spare holly could you be more specific though? maybe post a pic of it so we can see what you’re having problems with?
Prettyz sure thatz a trollz.
So I guess you can tell I’ve started trying on the left side but yeah it’s pretty much 40-90 degree angles
@pallid hazel top right picture is my mini spa by the pool area. The other picture is my Japanese spa
Anyone has a florist/flower shop on their island? Looking for inspo.
hmmm i think giving the river more, cure would help? or at least making the edges not so symmetrical? They seem pretty straight with no variance which lends more to a canal look than a river
Should I add something behind the warrior statue above the cliff or leave it like that
@delicate sand this is what mine is looking like rn
@limber badge yeah that’s true, I think you meant curve? I guess I gotta keep picking at it til I’m happy with how it looks 😂
oh yeah i meant curve lmao
@hybrid trellis not sure what’s your theme is, you should put trees on it.
Lol thanks for your help !!!
@hybrid trellis maybe add a moon
@hybrid trellis maybe add a moon
@neon glen I have a moon on the enterence right before this area..I felt it would be repetitive but I did think that!
@hybrid trellis not sure what’s your theme is, you should put trees on it.
@delicate sand
I'm really struggling on adding trees in my island
@delicate sand this is my small one rn
Can anyone give opinion on my entrances and what I should add to it
@neon glen I have a moon on the enterence right before this area..I felt it would be repetitive but I did think that!
@delicate sand
I'm really struggling on adding trees in my island
@hybrid trellis I feel you should try adding some pine trees, they look nice from distance. Maybe add the crescent moon chair and nova light and see if they look ok?
@delicate sand selwynn and this one while not mine looks pretty cool
@limber badge thanks.
@hybrid trellis I feel you should try adding some pine trees, they look nice from distance. Maybe add the crescent moon chair and nova light and see if they look ok?
@delicate sand
Worth a shot! I'll try it out
@scenic jacinth I can get you the camera item! I bought one not long ago
oh!! aww u don’t have to if you need it for anything!!
Nah! I just catalogue items I don't have when they pop up I can see if I can find it my island is so messy rn haha
I made a wedding area on my island and I don’t know if I like it or not- opinions?
felt that redoing my island rn and i’m losing it 🙄🙄 lmk whenever!! thank you so so much
i love this server so much people can be so nice 🥺🥺 i love this channel the most seeing everyone’s islands and ideas makes me so happy
Already asked this on a couple servers but do you know if NPCs like Flick can spawn on flowers? Just curious bc I have isolated cliffs with nothing but flowers on them :’))
Hiii! I’ve been thinking about redoing my island but idk where to start ;((( could I get some tips of how to redo my island without well...deleting it? LOL
i think so! also be careful if you have like one block pieces of land on the edge of waterfalls or in rivers because they can spawn there too and you wont be able to get to them :’))
@opaque geyser
Oo that’s big spooky ok thanks!!
Anyone have a cozy little library pls I need inspiration!! And what items should I use for mine?!
Can you guys send pictures of your island layout and where your shops are? I don’t really like where my shops are and need inspo lol

@frail raft I feel that 😔
Help meeeee i give up on making a good island makinv something but ended up losing a star so now im 2 stars my island is barely good
@stiff matrix a rattan chair and table and a leather couch would look good!
@frail raft tysm!!
The rattan sets are always nice for a comfy feel
@stiff matrix idk if this is considered cozy but this is my library :))
@stiff matrix i’m working on mine rn so i can’t send pics whoops but a fireplace, rocking chairs, rattan chairs/table, some bookstands, and maybe a typewriter/laptop!
@frail raft heres my map
Im not very good at terraforming but i wanted a natural theme to my island with theme of woodlands and canyons
@twilit lintel oooo thank you so much! I like how merengues house is a diner! Lol
any idea of what i should put here? im trying to make my island forest themed
@desert shore a picnic area would be cool!
good idea! ty
How can I jazz up my waiting area/entrance?
@desert shore a little book area to read or a little book shop
I think u should add a snack machine and maybe a garden table and chair! @viral bronze
Can someone come to my island and tell me what to put mine looks ugly and isint anywhere close to 5*
Ooooo 😮 I love that @frigid kayak tysm @magic lark
Do u guys know what type of furniture I should put here? I’m thinking I want a mini carnival here but I’m not sure-

@frail raft maybe the street organ?

Does anyone have an outdoor garden hang out spot? I’m working on mine right now but I have no idea what to do to make it look nice 😰
Idk if anyone is interested but here is my fairy forest themed island
@stiff matrix ooo I love it
@frail raft tysm!!! 😄
Um just wondering is moving all buildings to the beach while im terraforming worth it?
I feel like I’m asking a lot of questions lol but this is the entrance to my museum, I feel like I need more furniture- opinions?
I dunno if i should use all those bells (50,000 bells per building)
@stiff matrix this is my library and there’s a cafe attached
@opaque crest it’s really worth it if you need to terraform A LOT as in changing up your whole island style
Ok @frail raft. Thanks!
Np!
ahhhh someone has some beach inspo? im looking for something natural-cottaage core 💖
@jolly thistle I don’t have a cottage core theme but I have a wedding area on my beach if you want to see that!

Does anyone have a nice design for an orchard? I wanna keep it natural or something similar so cottagecore, fairycore (or what ever) would be nice!
Hi. Not sure if this right channel for this. But does anyone have a good stone path that would look good here? I wanted an off the mossy path stone path towards the well.
Ooo I love it @dusty summit

whitney's simple little yard <3
My nooks cranny area! Ideas on other stuff I should put here??
Kk
I need help, I have no idea what to put here. I have a pink/forest themed island
You should put a mini coffee shop there with white iron garden furniture and lamp posts @past elk
@past elk A cute little cafe area with one of the pizza ovens and white iron garden chairs and tables?
how did some of you decorate the secret beach area?
I seen a island yesterday which had a dark sort path with white flowers on the edge of it, does anyone know the wrong code for the flowers ?
@cold crow Just asking, but what's the path u used for the deck or ig boardwalk area?
ah let me find it rq!
i put a bunch of barrels in mine $:
@wispy jay
@cold crow Thx again :)
mhm ^^
anybody have a good library i can see?
@past elk Something like this might look cute 🙂
@mighty viper thank you! That is super cute
Any idea on what my resident side should look like ? My island has a modern like theme going for it
anybody have good pics of a library? i really need it
@dry hound this is mine with a little cafe stall
ooo thx
how do you plant a tree on one square of a cliff
@void venture modern like urban? neighborhoods are always cute, you could make it very structured and symmetrical, maybe include some neighborhood necessities like a park or cafe?
@dry hound my favorite pictures I took from that area
Which path do you guys like better?
my entrance ^ it feels kinda plain.. any suggestions??
Hiii can anyone give me any zen area ideas?!
@median comet I prefer the second with that style of incline
@median comet I agree
@stuck trail i think i am actually going to change the incline into the wooden one!
@waxen charm could you add some more flowers and/or maybe some fencing?
@median comet in that case I think I prefer the 1st xD
Anyone have a crescent moon lake?
finished ruby’s home!!!
@waxen charm Your entrance is very pretty!!
time for me to walk around my island debating on what to start next

you ever tear down a spot you dont like because you hate it even though you spent hours working on it. cause same
the thing is idk what to destroy my island is flat af for the most part
the thing is idk what to destroy my island is flat af for the most part
@icy flint i flattened too 😦 but i mean the parts i teraformed myself
I've done that with my island 3 times lmao, I'm still on my third remodel so hopefully I don't get tired of it before I finish the whole thing
I've done that with my island 3 times lmao, I'm still on my third remodel so hopefully I don't get tired of it before I finish the whole thing
@plain forge omg that is my fear. ive been working so hard and it feels like i can only do one area a day
I always get inspired on one section and then end up hating the rest so I have to change my entire layout ;; my island was Japanese themed but now it's going to be inspired by the LA area since I love LA
for some reason i just dislike terraforming at night time it just feels wrong idk just cant explain it
Hey y’all, does anyone have any pics/ideas on what to do with designing able sisters/nooks?? I’m remodeling my entire island and I am SO STUCK on what to do with shops smh
Anyone have a beach trading area?
does anyone have ideas on what to out on fall cliffs it looks soo empty. my island has a harvest moon(ap) theme if that helps
@daring vigil maybe Nova lights or bushes?
@wispy jay ooh i dont have that recipe yet 😭 maybe i'll do bushes for now n replace when i get the recipe thanks!
Np, always glad to help :)
Did some terraforming by my beach since it felt really empty without anything there
how long does it take everyone to terraform one spot like perfect it with furniture and everything
This is what the place looked like before
@hybrid trellis depends on the scaleof the project, some times it a 10 minute job to redirect a river some times its 4 hours cause i need to move an entire mountain and its decoration
can i come to someone’s island just to hang and shop?
@golden stream check #mysterybags-and-yardsales or #690093605821480980
i don’t see those anywhere 😦
did you read the trade rules verification in the marketplace channel?
oh
i got some cereal im ready to do tia's crib now
i got some cereal im ready to do tia's crib now
@icy flint ooooo, what cereal and what are you going to do with tia’s crib?
stole my little sisters lucky charms, and im going to try to move tia's house right next to my cafe which is next to the town hall so when you exit from tia's house and a small garden and then shes automatically in the cafe
sorry if it sounds confusing but i feel like when im done with it it'll make sense lmao
woah, that sounds pretty cool
thats what i did with erik's or atleast i made his next to the forest and camp sight so it matched the theme since his house is a log house
does anyone have a great statue on their island? i'm trying to figure out what to do with mine.
btw sorry for the time skip was cataloging a lot of stuff lmao
This is what my entrance looks like
Can I see anyone's secret beach? @zinc gulch And your entrance is amazing!
Before it was just flat
@wraith pike This is what I did with mine
Does anyone have any pictures including moon chairs? need some inspiration on where to place mine
@wispy jay thanks
@mighty viper that is lit
@zinc gulch np :)
i m p o s s i b l e
idk how up to it you are with the idea of weeds, but you should scatter some around erik’s place to give it a more natural look @icy flint
@half prairie ty for the advice thats what i was thinking of doing but im waiting for leif so i can get some bushes as well
@wispy jay North beach
oh yeah, bushes and barrels would work too. You should also make a tiny fishing area by the river @icy flint
its small but it still gets some fish
Does anybody know of a good setup for trees so that its practical but also looks half decent? For fruit trees specifically
@fickle mist I love how that looks, just don't have enough room to do it😅
Current island layout I'm messing around with 😤 some parts are cuter than others lol, a bunch of villagers are about to be moved so they're not so close to the entrance
Anyone got any house inspo for a single incline entrance? I need to shave an incline for the theme park so I guess it’s coming out of the island rep 
My island is so bare, need some ideas! Help a brotha out ❤️
@civic lark because of the mechanics of how trees grow, (if you're starting from saplings) there can't be more than 12 trees in a 9x9 area centered on a tree or that tree will not grow.
This layout I've found wokrs well for creating a good looking orchard, that you can see what you're doing, but also allows trees to grow:
O=tree -=empty space
-----------
-o---o---o-
---o---o---
-----------
if you repeat this pattern all of your trees will be able to grow, and will be set up for easy harvesting
@timid lantern lakes and rivers, with attractions set up between!! Waterfalls, rest stops, paths, cafes, forest, zen garden, etc 😊
@timid lantern If u need some inspo I can open my gate
@wraith spire thanks!
dom and i just hanging out ! !
I am trying to figure out what to do with this stretch of land. On the east is Bones' house, he is a dog who has a library for a home! There's a river up top and a cliff down below. So it's a path to Bone's home
I want some sort of foresty path but everything I try feels a bit off. I'd appreciate any suggestions or inspiration 😊
damn i always forget to take a before and after shot of my work
Doing a GOT island looking for some inspo

@thick surge you can come to mine. give me a few mins to boot up the game
@cedar venture oh thats cool.. i made RS to look like dorne bc im trying to map it just like westeros. with Dorne being at the bottom of the map.. but that would look good when i do the Lannisters or red wedding

@light saffron what does your map layout look like?
now i have a mental block i had it planned out and now im like ehh idk about this one chief

Anyone have ideas for the turmite mounds
@restive pewter That looks amazing and cute!!
Did anybody do a basketball court area? My island is filled with jocks and they want basketball
@lusty flicker i don’t have a reference but i’d put a stall with an espresso machine, serving carts, iron garden tables with coffee cup’s on them and natural garden chairs. and p l a n t s.
and maybe a backwards fireplace as an island.
Does anyone know how to do this?:(
does anyone have advice for just making a basic map layout? like i have everything i want it to have in a list but idk how to get it started and connect everything
What kind of bridge would look best here?
@devout ibex Maybe stone?

anybody have cafe images lol
@lusty flicker not mine

Hey guys, im looking for some advice on how to style 2 villagers houses. This picture is of a friends island that im taking inspiration of their residential area from. They have 5 rows of 2 villagers with enough yardspace and a path connecting them. I have kabuki and coco together because they’re houses r the same dark tan color as coco is, but im not sure what furniture and items i can use , got any ideas?
@lusty flicker you didnt type in that thing i sent u?
@lusty flicker np
yea 5 results one image
@lusty flicker here are some pictures from the search
@lusty flicker type the whole thing " in: island-layouts has: image cafe "

it says 929 results for me, but if you dont know how to work discord just go to pinterest or google and type "acnh cafe"
im dumb figured it out i feel sooo embarrassed
dont worry aa, discord is confusing
@lusty flicker no your not ur just confused, I was like that too
@lusty flicker here are some others from the search, if you keep hitting the bottom arrow button it’ll take you through different grouping of mentionings and pictures
Hi guys sorry to bother everyone, but does anyone have any solid ideas how I can make this little sitting area better
Anyone know what items I can put to make my fairy forest themed island better here are the things I hv
Hi guys sorry to bother everyone, but does anyone have any solid ideas how I can make this little sitting area better
@mighty bolt some hycanith lamps would look super cute
@rough tulip oh!! That’s perfect!! Thank you!
@mighty bolt i look kinda barren right know but it will look better when the trees grow. id add some lights and trinkets on the tables. : )
I’m looking for an idea of a flea market!
@knotty breach oh thank you!
@mighty bolt imo if you’re going to use The Path, id make the trees spread out to make it less symmetrical and add flowers and hyacinth lamps
@stiff matrix hopefully this will help a little?... I feel like there's a lot of overlap between cottagecore and fairy themed islands
Tysm @stuck trail
@neon glen thank you! Your totally right about the trees!
@stuck trail theres no difference. except fairycore has more l a m p s
hi! does anyone have their villagers houses on like little islands of their own?
if that makes any sense
@livid storm i have two of them on little islands. its part of my water bungalow area. it's not much room, but theyre on little islands
@twilit lintel ty! I'm redoing my island and thinking of more water and one of my ideas was to give my villagers their own little islands because i have alot of room where I have them rn
@twilit lintel Your island is amazing!!! I'm jealous!!! 😅😅😅
@livid storm yeah if youre gonna do something like what i did, it takes up a lot more space because it needs to look a bit more natural in a way. i fit 2 villagers and my house. but i gave myself a bigger actual yard compared than the villagers.
@twilit lintel omg I just noticed this but is the bungalow villager on the right trapped on their island?? I don't see a bridge going to mainland for them lol 😭
@wispy jay it took me over 700 hours of play time lol. @stuck trail nah they have jumping spots that are easily accessible for them. i see them out and about all the time. so they arent trapped
@twilit lintel I have my home already in the middle of my island on a hill, I had my villagers just sitting on either side of my island with alot of space
wait villagers can jump around like we can? like they arent trapped?
i dont think they jump tho, i had villager houses on cliffs without inclines and they were walking around my rs, so i think they spawn randomly when u open up yhe game
@twilit lintel villagers can't jump to my knowledge 😂 they spawn randomly so they'll spawn outside of their yard sometimes
@livid storm ahhh i see. it just depends on how much space you want to give the water portion of that area you want. and ive seen them in other parts of the island. so idk lol. ive never seen them physically jump though
I mean there's nothing wrong with that lol it's just funny to me!
so they tech wouldnt be trapped if I put like jumping spaces leading to their houses? correctm
@livid storm yeah they wont technically be trapped
@twilit lintel this is my map, and I started playing maybe 4-5 months ago😅
thay saves me a ton of room if that's the case 😅
@livid storm they're never "trapped" per se since they spawn anywhere. that's why fencing in villagers you dislike is pointless 🤣
@wispy jay ooohh that looks nice! ive been playing since the game came out. @livid storm yes and no. it just depends. you can come to my island to check how i did it.
oh what are those square spaces for on that map? @wispy jay
its funny to c them fenced in tho LOL
those poor animals
@hot yacht flower hybrids, wanted to add some to my island bc I saw alot of cool ones
oh nice!
i also like how you kept all the shops close to eachother, on my map they are so spread apart for no reason lol
@hot yacht ppl usually keep them together because its easy access
you know i might just do that...when i get enough bells
Only thing is tulips and roses are by my house, Pansy's by the river and the rest in that big area. I wanted to have a shopping center close to resident services bc of the ATM in it😅 @hot yacht
do you put like certain flowers in certain areas to give each one their own little aesthetic? cause thats what i do its pretty cool
I did something like this, it's not mine but I loved how it looked😅 @hot yacht
How's my mini garden? Is there anything i can add?
I need some help/advice! I don’t know which path I should do for my island or how to figure out the perfect landscape
Does anyone have a good bamboo forest design? I need something to refer to!
I just need to start the cosmos hybrids, but need to wait for Leif 😅@hot yacht what theme do u want your island? @upper isle
Something cute and forestry
@upper isle honestly theres probably never gonna be a perfect landscape. as long as youre happy with it, thats all that matters. whats your theme?
theres no point in stressing if you’re not gonna try it. i always do and if i dont like it i fix it. just experiment, nothing is permanent : )@upper isle
@upper isle kinda like a fairy garden?
Does anyone have any good guides to leveling/layout? 😦 I'm feeling overwhelmed about redoing my terraforming.
@wet spoke idk about you but with my garden i like to put little art decorations here and there like statues and maybe a fountain but i do love how compact yours looks
@wispy jay yes!
I wish we could terraform the sand 😭 I just want a beach island so badly
@wispy jay oh whos leif? sorry im kinda new
hehe I finished my campsite area
@upper isle if you're doing forest-y, have you considered.... The Path
@stuck trail omg i LOVE that! i never thought of adding the bushes and paths like that
@stuck trail yes I have but it isn’t exactly what I am looking for 😅
@hot yacht he sells flowers and bushes, he sells on your resident services and @upper isle u can use mushroom stuff
How do you guys do that :(( my island still has nothinggggggg im bad at this game
@wispy jay alright thank you
@wispy jay I will! Thanks 
@hot yacht np it is random tho😅 @upper isle np 🙂
Does anyone have a good picture of a bamboo forest alley?
Dobies library and river side cafe
that looks so comfy
@ornate compass here's my bamboo forest
@olive crescent patience. people spend hundreds of hours on their islands to get it a certain way. don’t compare yours anyone elses : )
Can I see anyone's secret beach? Need some inspo but have a really small area😅😅
Pretty forest aa
does anyone have a cottagecore island who is willing to let me catalog some of the things they used?
Does anyone have any inspo for Gotham City/ Wayne Manor? Mostly for around my house
Can I see what people did with their stores? Please and thank you

@native condor I did this, sorry for it being a lil blurry and sideways😅
So I really want a mushroom forest but my island looks like this and I'm afraid that would look stupid.
Any tips or should I just forget about it
Will someone come to my island and give me ideas??
I’m at 4 star and Isabelle says i need more furniture!
I need help for the blank spots on my island!!
done with tia's location/ cafe! any feedback would be appreciated!
@hybrid trellis I don’t think that’s a stupid idea at all! my tip would be to find a place that’s somewhat more secluded from your main/more urban area (maybe near the campsite? depending on your layout)
Anybody have a cool able sisters area they would like to share?
@hybrid trellis I don’t think that’s a stupid idea at all! my tip would be to find a place that’s somewhat more secluded from your main/more urban area (maybe near the campsite? depending on your layout)
@stuck trail
So maybe try to make a hidden pathway to the campsite?
@cedar venture 👏 amazing
Will someone come to my island and give me ideas??
I’m at 4 star and Isabelle says i need more furniture!
I need help for the blank spots on my island!!
@hybrid trellis I think that would be super cool if you could work it in! plus you already have some magical elements with the crescent moon chairs so I think a sort of hidden mushroom forest would play well with that
@safe lodge what i would recommend is trying to get materials for your diy and try to customize it and try to go to the nooks cranny and find whats appealing for the house or for the island and it'll eventually come
@grave lagoon Thanks!
@icy flint very fitting for tia, well-done 👍 only suggestion would be to try out wedding fences instead of rope?
@hybrid trellis I think that would be super cool if you could work it in! plus you already have some magical elements with the crescent moon chairs so I think a sort of hidden mushroom forest would play well with that
@stuck trail thank you so much I'll try it out!
@stuck trail tbh i haven't done any wedding related things since i didn't play during the wedding season haha so if you can bless me some in a trade i'd die for you
@icy flint happy to craft u some if u need, dm me if you’re interested!
@icy flint i have some extra heart crystals if you want!
Anyone have ideas for an archaeological site?
when you're in trouble and mom doesn't know what to do with you @stuck trail
Can someone help me with terraforming?
@stuck trail tysm for the help once again!
I’m looking for an idea of a flea market!
@icy flint np!! happy I could help 
Anyone have inspo on the secret island?
Anyone have any modern campsite ideas? My island theme is japanese city.
Any ideas
@woven drift You could do a Park clock, benches and bushes arranged to make a micro parl 🙂
I don't know if I want my villager houses to look something like this or if I want to make them all have their own area. I'm really torn
Hmm that sound great
Here the layout
It’s weird I already have a 4 star island and I haven’t even finish barely half of the island yet🤷🏻♂️
That looks amazing
@woven drift ngl that was me, now I have 5 stars and still have things I want to do and @rain glen that looks amazing!!
Oh! Didn't think u had that much ngl😅 my map is this
That looks so cool!
@woven drift is that supposed to be a boardwalk area?
Suppose it does look kinda messy
@woven drift heres mine!
I barely even started my beach
I have a qn y’all
Any ideas on what to put on the left and right? It looks so empty
@woven drift my theme is tropical resort. so it was one of the areas i started with. @patent delta whats up?
How do y’all get your Manila clams this way . U have a part of the beach with no items on?
Ok that make sense😂 mines is more of a blossom
I’m looking for an idea of a flea market!
@patent delta my beach isnt completely full. and my boardwalk is on the grass, not on the beach.
Oooo 👌🏻
@still kernel here's how I have my market
U should start a tour on your island @twilit lintel
Your island really looks amazing
@woven drift oh i invite ppl whoever needs help or just want to come
Are u doing one tomorrow?
@woven drift im doign one everyday honestly lol. i just had someone finish a tour
I would love to see it @twilit lintel I just started playing so I’m trying to get some ideas
Ok I’ll let u know tomorrow 🙂
i can show a photo with my scribbles and labels on top if neccesary lol but i have a big corner of land thats just entirely blank and im not sure what to put there because its not big enough for anything ridiculously extravagant (and its already on the 2nd level 😰) anyone with a big brain got any general ideas
Tbh its just so hard for me to make things look good
@orchid chasm yeah of course! message me tomorrow and ill get you over. its almost 2am here so i gotta go to bed.. @woven drift just message me tomorrow 😄
Ok cool, thank you so much 😊
@warm light heres my map thats labeled with the different parts of my island
oo thank u sm!!
@warm light Some more area ideas for you 🙂
you guys think the pagoda should be used for force perspective?
tysm for the ideas ! :D
A mug that matches Sherbs house so I put Sherbs face on it 🥰 little things like this make me love the game even more
@rain glen that looks so cool!!!
i know right?!
The pagoda definitely works well that way, but it works just as well putting it up on a cliff to make it look bigger from below. I think do whatever suits your island best 🙂
Don't forget forced perspectives eat a lot of room for something not meant to be traversed
@rain glen that looks dope dude 👀 you can add other stuff like stunted trees, turned around doghouses, or pocket campers to make it more lively if u want
Does anyone have any tips on what to put on the upper level of my entryway? Or anything else that would make it better?
Don't forget forced perspectives eat a lot of room for something not meant to be traversed
@eager burrow true but thats why its easier to do in the back of your island where people usually dont have much to put
I could put more flowers up there, but l want some dynamic energy to it in terms of sizes/heights if possible, rather than a flat garden of flowers
@rain glen that looks dope dude 👀 you can add other stuff like stunted trees, turned around doghouses, or pocket campers to make it more lively if u want
@fossil fern thats a great idea! youve got a creative mind!
@sage fable I’d put flower and 2 crescent moon chair that face away from each other like this? 🌜🌛
How do you even make star fragment trees
ODNDNDJJDJSHS
It's a hacking thing. I traded for some elsewhere. Don't think we're supposed to discuss it here.
Oh oki
There's also a small risk it could corrupt your save file when Nintendo patches the game, potentially deleting all your progress.
I need some help ._. Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do in this empty space? (The fountain is in line with the Resident Services)
Maybe put some fencing going to the right and align it with the fountain. After put maybe a waterfall on both sides. After that idk sorry 😐 @woven drift
@woven drift yeah alright, I can give that a go :)
do the waterfalls look okay? do they look a bit too cramped and should move it back ?
yeah i think it looks a bit cramped and u should back it up a little :) @grim stag
been rebuilding my island and i think these two spots are my fave rn aaaa
Which is better?
@fossil fern I like the bottom picture
What chu guys think of my forced prospective?
Here is a beautiful island I toured! I really hope you like it! https://youtu.be/mDNbx-T_VR8 hopefully it gives you come ideas! 😊

Anyone have recommendation for how many spaces front-to-back between houses to prevent "dead areas" where you can't see?
Any ideas of what I should do with this area? I’m kinda stumped on what I could to with it 😐
maybe like a japanese town store area?
So, I have been re-doing my island but have come to the conclusion.. it sucks
been rebuilding my island and i think these two spots are my fave rn aaaa
@naive patrol what bear is that? my island is slowly becoming bear island
BUT! I am not giving up just have to spend another 600 hours 2 fix this mess 😎🤓
@naive patrol what bear is that? my island is slowly becoming bear island
@versed wadi his name is teddy and he is the best jock bear ever i love him so goddamn much
Nice, I've got Beardo, Grizzly and Nate so far.
does it look better? right is before and left is after pushing waterfalls one block backwards 😅
yeah ngl it does look a bit better
So this is my start of my island and my house is right there to does it look good or should I add a bit more
Want my houses organized all right behind/above the Plaza here.
I started.. But having trouble fitting. Any recommendation? I want at least a little yard for each...
Im so happy, I finally finished my island!
That’s so cool I nearly started @sweet perch
What's this 'finished' thing you speak of?
haha, It was really a struggle. Im sure you can make a great island with time and effort @near current ! and lmao "finished" is saying that it's full. Doesnt mean that I'm satisfied with everything :,)
My theme of my island is each villager gets there own custom area like a desert or like a snow area
oooh that sounds interesting! ive never seen a snow/desert theme before, but id love to see it when it's done
I’ll see if I can dm u once it’s finished and u can maybe tour as well!
@near current I'm doing something similar, but making it like a zoo with all the different habitats, with villagers to match 🙂
Awhhh that’s so cute
Just realized I could’ve made a Lana Del Rey themed island based on her songs
@woven drift You still can, that'd be unique 🙂
I barely started really terraforming my island so possibly
Me and my sister made a path in the middle of the island and she decorates one side and I decorate the other side :))
I've decided to finally make a Twitter just so I can save my screenshots
Ngl, pictures that people take of their island with their phone are ghetto
IKR I always post them on my Twitter so they can be cuter :>
I didnt know about twitter screenshots until today, so i dont think they're ghetto ;w;
i just destroyed my whole island for the 4th time, hope i'll be satisfied with whatever i can build next...... anyone have this struggle?
Nope
Yep, currently working on my 3rd remodel with a brand new theme hahaha
@zealous cloak , I destroyed my island 4 times as well, im sure you'll get it eventually! don't give up!
Is there any other way to save screenshots instead of posting them on Twitter? Like Twitter dm or smth?
haha okay, i find it hard to be satifsied, i always come up with new ideas.. but i guess that's why i keep playing!
True, the game wouldnt be fun if there was nothing to strive for

yup! also really excited for the mermaid furniture we'll be getting with the update, which is the reason i destroyed everything!!
same, i made an alt account for the sole reason of having enough room to make a mermaid themed room :,0
I’m making a sea area for marina 😄
@twilit lintel I would love to see your outdoor cinema area! i'm planning to create one as well but have no idea where to start haha
ahh thats super cute! Fitting for marina too
i feel like Kabuki is a grandpa.. i'm making him a retirement home by the beach...
🤔 tbh i take pics w my phone sometimes bc im too lazy to actually ss it and post it on twitter
I made flora a flamingo beach bar, I just slapped flamingo furniture everywhere around her house lol
I made fauna a forest area and she always runs through it lol
haha wonderful ideas!!!
oh cute
Do y’all have your villagers together or a different themed area for each villager
Different themed area
I have a different themed area for each villager, I know a lot of people clump them together to make collecting DIYs easier, but i like scattering everyone :,)
Can I see pics @near current
I have a small village of 4 houses, everyone else gets their own themed areas
all my villagers are on the right side of my island but i gave them all a small fenced area around the house!
i seperate them...i put the lazy villagers close to the shopping area, because i figured they would be too lazy to walk the long way.... hehe
How some of my houses are set up
I didnt like that my villagers would only clump on one side of the island :(
i put flowers, benches, or other items that match their house in the front area. like chrissy has a tricycle and pink guitar, axel has a basketball and bike
I kinda just went with it; whenever I thought "oh [villager] might like [facility]! let's slap their house right next to it." I just moved the house there
my island's flat rn, i just started the entrance and these front gardens will help me make mine
current layout to show how they're all positioned
@sweet perch same!! makes sense!
Poppy is a cutie 
She's definitely in my top 3
i evicted her :(
I have her amiibo card so I got her into my island pretty quick
Poppy is my favorite for sure 😭
ahhh she's so cute! i gave her round glasses, and she always wears them whenever she reads books. It makes me die of diabetes whenever she wears it
Same!

because she's so sweet? 😂
LMAO same but I have no pic
🤔 i think.. those r default? i never gifted her anything but she still wore glasses
she's too pure for this world
Yeah the round glasses are her default readers
oh really? I assumed someone else gifted it to her because i bought her from someone :,D good to know
Grizzly also wears them
i have only cats.....
I think a few others too
there's something about glasses that makes everything cute.. 🤔
I’m probably gonna give Poppy her own forest area
sorry but u have a permanent residence here
Poppy should live in a cabin, her exterior really doesn't match the interior
oh my gosh the hat on her is cute too, gonna steal that for later as a gift to her 👀
She also looks great in the red paperboy cap
I'm super proud of my entrance. It wasn't exactly how I wanted it but I made it work nonetheless
ohhhh the trees make it look like a secret entryway of some sort!
Yea it does it’s pretty
I didn't have the game during spring but I built the entrance in mind for when spring comes again
and nice @versed wadi , lets just admit that she looks nice in everything
Anyone got any ideas on what flowers would look good here? Can't think of any =\
And I really want her to this full outfit, but she only ever wears it in bits 🙂
@noble vigil what color scheme are you going for?
Ok, no more poppy pics from me
@noble vigil I would alternate white roses / white hyacinths OR orange wind / white hyacinths
this is what I have for her yard
I'm mainly trying to make it blend with the plaza @sweet perch
oh I see. well from that pic, it looks like you use a lot of browns and oranges? I think white and orange flowers would add a nice pop
I am amazed with how it's blended with the plaza!!! how!!!
@noble vigil I would alternate white roses / white hyacinths OR orange wind / white hyacinths
@zealous cloak ooh this might work! Thanks i'll give it a try =]
and cute, I love that it matches her house theme @limber ginkgo
they look like steps? I need to make something like that..
@zealous cloak yess!! Its a cute design I found! I can share it with you once I find it hold on =]
the only thing is her interior is random as hell because I can never say no to her when she asks to buy something off me 😭
this is a mood ^

@noble vigil yesss I would absolutly love that!!!
"I love you too much to say no, but I know if you buy the flea off of me, it'll ruin your house forever
"
@zealous cloak here it is! Absolutely love this design
@noble vigil THANK YOU!!!!!
No worries! =]
gonna flex another pic real quick: this is my school area
ohh this is so pretty!! and inspiring!! thank you for sharing
np, I didnt want to share too much, with the chance that id annoy people by flooding the chat :,D
Thats really cute!!!! :o
thank you ^_^
Hi all! I need help with my landscaping (so cliffs basically) I'm going for a more natural island, what does everyone have? I'm stumped ;-;
Realistically the island should be a volcano
@vernal trellis there's a great tweet to help with natural terraforming in the pinned posts 🙂
this probably is generic advice, but try to use the camera angle (the camera always faces forward) to your advantage. When you make cliffs or trees, try to not over crowd the paths, (unless that's your intention) @vernal trellis
Should I change the terracotta path to a stone path? Feel unsure about keeping the terracotta
The terracotta makes everything look brighter, stone path would make things look a bit more "magical"/toned down? depends on what you're going for

@sweet perch thank you 😊
@woven drift I love the terracotta! That is because i love warm colors. But since you have blue purple and pink around, which are colder colors, stone would work fine I think
^^^ exactly what i was thinking
Thank you, that really helps!
@zealous cloak thank you for that 🙏
If you were to keep the terracotta for the "warm" vibe, you would swap the colors of the mushrooms maybe? either to match the flowers, or to orange or white (not sure what colors are available tho)
Do you guys think the imperial set is a good design for Kabuki’s backyard?

@zealous cloak perfect! There's green, blue, white and red with white spots
🦋
@woven drift it could work, depends what color your set is?
i think it could work especially color-wise! , imperial is chinese themed, and kabuki is japanese themed however, so if you're looking for cultural consistency, id say imperial isnt a good idea. @woven drift

@sweet perch Hm. What set should I use then?
@woven drift I think his house looks good by the beach, and since i feel like he's a grandpa, i'm making him a retirement home by the beach (so will use beige and white furniture)
hm, kabuki is red and white right? Kind of dynamic lol. Maybe paper lanterns, zen fences, and sand paths?
Oh! I have some shell furniture for Marina’s backyard but I’m gonna move her out so a little beach isn’t a bad idea.
he also has pink paws! but his house is light brown with a beige straw roof
ohhh beige would work with sand paths. Ive seen people do zen gardens, and use rocks for his house before i think.
yess stones would match the grey steps he has on his house
should i rearrange my entire island to make it look like starbucks?
go for it, if starbucks is what inspires you, i don't see why not @uneven horizon lmao, however, It might be a challenge to find things to fill your island with, especially if you're basing your whole island off of one specific thing
it’s more of a very cursed starbucks where employees always spell your name wrong and not an actual legit one
lmao, honestly, id love to see it, it sounds super entertaining.
that's a hilarious idea
I spent 30% of my existence at a starbucks prior to quarantine, so id love to see that, please show us when you're done
Y’all what villagers y’all got
Audie, dom, bam, sherb, kidcat, fauna, coco, Chrissy and Francine!
all meows! kabuki, purrl, olivia, merry, rosie, kiki, rudy, bob, punchy, kid cat
no raymond or tangy... for some reason i don't want the most popular ones..
Kody, Rocket, Skye, Zell, Stitches, Whitney, Rosie, Francine, Margie, Tipper,
i like to think that kiki and rudy are bffs because they have the same house
What do y’all think of Marshall’s pottery?
I'm so happy I finally made this twitter account. I have so many photos lol. Although some areas don't look nice on photos and look better actually being there. Sorry just wanted to share more of my favorite spots currently
hello who has villagers in boxes?
@woven drift #701251557458444395
What should I be putting in front of my museum? Ideas welcome :)
maybe a information area with the fossils and with some codes which look like information panels?
Which looks better? The rock or the wood? My island is city themed
I think it's super cool when people put roses in the front with benches. Or when they do the Greek/Romen style with fake statue in the front lol
Does Bacon still post here-?
I see shes still here, But does she still post her harry potter island. It was really talented
If you are going for an outdoor waiting station then stone
But if you plan to make it resemble a waiting station that inside the wood
@abstract parrot outdoor, i also liked the stone lol. thank you uwu 💕
anyone able to build me a map to follow? i can show how mine is now just want a river layout done, where my raised land will be and villager house and shop placements
i can pay nmt
so youre asking for a template for an island map?
yeah, something i can follow when terraforming island bc im unsure how i want it, got a rough idea for rivers but everything else i havent got a clue lol
in that case, you can find a lot of inspiration here but paying someone to help is a bit unnecessary
yeah ik but i mean, i got payed alot yesterday lol
remember, nobody knows whats best for your island except you
yeah thats true just struggling with how im gonna do it lol
Show your map now
i kept the layout of my island the way it was originally and only used terraforming to shape it when i ran out of room due to a river or cliff
yeah we can help you here
my map rn is a mess but gimmie a sec
every building gonna be moving when i find a place, except the house to the left of rs, i can show you the river placement i made on happy island designer, i’d just need help with cliff and building placements then lol
i think the layout is mostly fine, although its underdeveloped at the top of the map
some more bridges over that river on the right would be good
yeah, that was from my old theme, im redoing my island now, i'll show how i want my rivers to be now 2 secs
something like this, with my house being on an island in the lake at the top
i don’t know wut i should do with my entrance i am redesigning it so any ideas
that means you have to remove the river on the right altogether
@pale acorn this is my entrance
nice
omg ur entrance is so beautiful
yeah i'll be removing that soon just wanted a plan first
that is really nice
Howww
my island is unicorn themed any ideas
I did something simple with my entrance. Idk maybe this give you something lol
wow it’s soo nice
i like your map layout
Thank you!
my entrance isn’t worth showing off but my house area definitely is
if someoen could gimmie a rough idea for cliff layouts that be nice
I was very fortunate I had little Terraforming to do. I haven't change my river. Only added a small stream and a pond
i wish i did that instead of flattening my island lol
having a blank canvas is never easy
my little island for stonehenge
@lunar oyster goals
feel like im asking for alot but can i see people maps want to see how people have their cliffs
i have my cliffs at the top of the map
i have ny cliffs like this (still a wip)
I’m currently trying to build a small cafeteria but I don’t know how I want it to look and what kind of decoration I should try looking for... any ideas?
I have cliffs everywhere, I like cliffs
Personally for the top half I'd do something like this. Put some homes on the top right to have a view of the lake
@paper path
@abstract parrot oo ywah i like that, my secret beach is in the wrong place there though i forgot to change that but yeah i like that ty!
If my river wasn't right in front of my secret breach I'd love to have an easy yet "exclusive" entrance to it.
But ya put home on the top and maybe the campsite on other one
@abstract parrot tyy, i like that yeah just gotta find how imma my villager houses nd stuff now
i have two days to finish my dock area for diving.. any ideas?
my little island for stonehenge
@paper path
I really like that idea!
@gloomy helm i stole the idea from twitter lol
Want to share these two spots, really happy with both!
@woven drift they’re really nice!
i feel really bad for asking but if someone could give me a tough ideas pond and building placements
Here is a beautiful island I toured! I really hope you like it! https://youtu.be/mDNbx-T_VR8 hopefully it gives you come ideas! 😊

guys i have this small space on the left of my RS area. what do u think i should put here?
@analog aspen maybe like a food court area
Im having a weird crisis on my island - i want it to be as symetrical as possible and according to block count map and everything it is symetrical but the layout isnt the same?? Like its off it looks different
some pice from my orchard, i‘m happy how it turned out. but i don‘t know if i should remove the flowers or not, any advice?

@sly horizon
i personally think the flowers look adorable! maybe add a few mixed in and some weeds for a more natural look if that's what you're going for, but other than that it looks amazing!
very pretty! I like the paths that you used
That's a good looking orchard!
how can i plan out my island not using happyislanddesginer?
@fathom nest I used paper ngl 😅
thank you, this area took me i think 3 days lol? but sadly it‘s the only finished area on my island
does anyone have a candy or moon themed island if yes dm layout
@sly horizon really? What's your theme or plan ig?
@wispy jay i want to do a naturall looking island. i completely destroyed my island because before i don‘t liked it. i terraformed first the hole island and now i decorate every single area. so i think it took so long because i‘m a little bit perfectionist and i need to trade the items i don‘t have 
@sly horizon Oh? I didn't know, do u have a plan for each area?
@wispy jay unfortunately i don‘t have a pic from my island map at the moment but the main theme should be forrest/natural looking so for example i have now the orchard, at the moment i‘m working on a bamboo forrest, than i have the villager areas so i mean i have some little and some bigger areas but they are cutted with cliffs. some areas i have finished in my mind and others i plan spontaneously. i hope u understand what i mean
Anyone have any ideas on how to decorate around the docks. It’s a lil empty rn 😂
@sly horizon Yea I do, don't worry. I wanted to do a natural but then I saw all the star stuff and cool white paths I just went with that😅😅
@magic pulsar Maybe barrels, a chair and maybe a fishing rod?
Hey if possible would someone be able to help me with my island? I want to go for a more natural theme since I don’t like how my island is full of brick paths and brick stairs / bridges. It’s ok if not
@wispy jay good idea
@magic pulsar I saw some people putting picnic blanket-designs there and decorating it with food and candles. that looked very cute too
my entrance!
@ivory turtle I’ll do that next to it. I really like the idea of the picnics all over the beach
are there any tabletop game decorations other than chess?
There's a board game item, and a go board
I have no idea what to put here at all
@coral carbon Maybe a picnic area or a lil reading area?
@wispy jay yeah I was thinking that, tysm!^^
@coral carbon Np, I'm glad I could help ^^
Redid my entrance woooo
@fossil fern That looks amazing!!!
very satisfiying change. It's so symmetrical now 
@ivory turtle @wispy jay aw yay thx dudes :DD
i have made a very big decision to re-do my entire island and im both scared and excited
Oh?
im switching from a japanese theme to cottage/fairy core because i love the messy and natural vibes
I wish rugs didn't take so many design slots
Im doing a tropical royal park theme :3
@limpid aspen That would look amazing ngl
White and yellow- so If anyone has yellow stuff they want to get rid Off i am here
thank you guys! im gonna try and have fun with it since i got so stressed before :(
Hey y’all! Does anyone have cool shopping areas 👀👀
Not rn sorry
Oooo that’s epic :00 lemme show u mine
thank you!!
My lil entrance, mini gift shop is to the left 😳
Looking for garden inspiration for these villagers ^^
oh how cute!! i like the butterflies outside
@woven drift u can do their personalities or what's in their house, I saw someone do a mini office for Ramond
@wispy jay tyy (:
@woven drift marina may suit a rose type theme
and Raymond maybe stone
bobs house !! pretty happy with it, let me know what you think ! 
@woven drift thank you! will def consider that 🙂
@woven drift thank you! will def consider that 🙂
@analog aspen aha allg that’s what I did near my entrance
@woven drift i did these flower arrangements for villagers
I need to move most of my villager's around bc I want to make lil yards for them😅😅
Any ideas of what I could add into my restaurant?
Some "rugs" too maybe

Does this look like a rice paddy? Or should I add some dark dirth paths first?
Oh okay! Thanks!
This is before
Does this look like a rice paddy? Or should I add some dark dirth paths first?
