I’ve been wondering for ages on what else I could put here so dose anybody have any ideas? (Supposed to be an blue and white themed enchanted pond•^•)
Made a small wedding area at the beach
To much with the statues?
@brisk shuttle Oooh that looks super nice! Maybe add some mush lamps? You can customise them to be blue and white and I think they'd add to a nice enchanted feel
@bitter acorn OoOoOo thank youuu
👉🏻👈🏻
That's a nice area
Hey, if possible, would someone be able to help me with designing my island? I don’t really know what to do with it and kind of want to demolish everything and do a natural theme since mine is covered in paths and brick bridges / stairs
I’m looking for shops on a cliff Pictures please
Rocks should be able to spawn here right? Just wanna be sure before I try moving them 🙈
They should
sweet thanks! i couldn't find that one graphic that shows where they can't spawn and just wanted to be sure it wasn't too close to the cliff
I made a "postcard" for my island https://twitter.com/Riatarowo/status/1277410523882151937
sweet thanks! i couldn't find that one graphic that shows where they can't spawn and just wanted to be sure it wasn't too close to the cliff
@pure crest They can spawn as long as they have 8 squares around them open, for the loot that drops from the rocks
.t rocks

AHH TY
Is it worth moving all my@residents homes to the beach or while I terraform?
@sullen terrace i do that and i think its worth it cuz i work better when everything is blank if that makes sense idk whatever works for u !
Okay! Thank you! I’m trying to make a shopping district but I’ve got some homes in the way of that lol @prime wharf
Hey I’m trying to redesign my island, is it smart to flatten my whole island? I’ve never really designed my island while I play for 2 months now.
Some ideas what could fit on the empty plot at the bottom
Starting a new game, which one will be the best? (I like the bottom two)
bottom right!
@woven drift I've chosen something similar to bottom left
Top right
Haha as you can see it is personal preference, choose whatever you feel best with
Okay, I chose the bottom left. It spoke to me more, ty for the help! ^^
anyone who can share their layout with me for inspiration?
@woven drift could give you a short tour if you want
sure!
Lf for something to fill this spot at the bottom any suggestions pls
Anyone have outdoor diner ideas? I have all the items and every color, I’m planning on doing a pink diner and a red diner but can’t figure out exactly how I want them laid out. Thanks!
@rich ivy This screenshot has me intrigued!
@versed wadi Oh Hi sorry for the late reply! Also your island looks amazing. I can show you more but people might not like the idea of my town/island here lol
So I am trying to make all of my stones in one area but the last three stones are not spawning on the right area... I already tried doing the manequin to cover all the possible area that the stones can pop... When I do that it will not respawn at all... Am i doing something wrong?
omg @woven drift the top right looks exactly like my map

@vale cargo What is right below the fencing?
Nothing in there
No cliffs?
maybe try removing the fencing or just any items below
Ohhh it has my elevated park
Yeah there's a pretty large area behind cliffs that block rock spawns
its annoying to move it but u can put it back once they spawn 🙂
Yeah... It's a good thing I have pave like 70% of my map 🤣🤣🤣 ill just move the fence to make it easier... Now it will be part of Snake's garden
Here my Urban-ish, or town area Able sisters. Maybe someone can get inspirations from it
i kinda like it
can anyone help me with ideas of what to use flowers for? i have a flower garden already but there’s flowers everywhere on my island idk what to do. i have quite a natural island, no roads or secret areas or fancy layouts.
same here, I wanna start working on my beach but it's full of flowers atm
Any ideas for decorating my entrance more? To me it still looks very bland
i'm remodeling my whole island and its a mess but i have finished my home area and nearly finished the entrance. I'm now working on the museum and a hangout spot on the beach 🙂
I have this empty space on my island, any ideas on how to decorate it, should I just make a flower patch or something? 😊
Does anyone know the size of light houses? Like how many blocks do they take?
2x2 i think
Has anybody got a really cool garden for Diana ^^
Any ideas for a cute decoration in Able Sisters?
diana
@atomic quest tyyy!
Does anyone know the size of light houses? Like how many blocks do they take?
@tight badge 2x2
Thank you @woven drift uwu
i am dying trying to redesign my island ;-;
Any ideas for a cute decoration in Able Sisters?
@cerulean crest typically people use loom, sewing projects, sewing machine, spinning wheel and place down some clothes outside..
im missing a lot of diys :c and idk what theme to go for
Anyone have any retro inspired islands?
Anyone knows what can I do with this odd shaped villagers yard? My island is European/ Amsterdam
themed and I’ve alr got a wine tasting area, flower shop and bakery.
Italian restaurant ?
tiny cafe? espresso machine and a table
@lone delta you can make a little laundry area?
@lunar fog great idea!
WE GOTTA GET THE DOWJONES UP
Fish & bugs cannot be traded!
i’ve been planning on redesigning my island but rn i don’t know what to do especially with the part around the residents services. it’s supposed to have forest-y vibes. i’m open for any ideas
does anyone know villagers houses that would fit in a cottagecore/foresty type island
@paper path Molly’s house does. Her house is like a log cabin
Any advice for my entrance
@paper path molly erik and beau have cottage houses
I'm not sure if this is the right place, but I'm looking to build a beach bar on my northwest shore, but don't know where to start in regards to design. Anyone got any tips?
sydney have kind of a cottage core house too
@woven drift I would change the path with one that has warmer colors! mood seems cute and joyful with the ice cream lamp, so maybe try terracotta or red brick?
@tame robin when i don't know where to start, i clear the place, dump all the furniture randomly .. then you see if it feels tight and needs more space, if the colors are ok, if you're missing some furniture... then i start to move stuff around..
Does my museum look ugly here??
I like it @woven drift ☺️
I HAVE LOST MY MIND PLS HELP
@worn sedge maybe the river one smaller? idk haha
ive tried everything sob
@woven drift ok 💞💞😊
I think that corner in the bottom left you could straighten it out..??
@worn sedge maybe it's the corner on the bottom left?
yeah maybe add more water on the left side
DONE IT
I HAVE LOST MY MIND PLS HELP
@worn sedge i think the river needs to be thinner
@worn sedge i think the river needs to be thinner
@zealous mortar yes that was the problem thank you all sob
Guys I am doing a hoovering business on ac where I pick up all weeds and useless items dm me it’s free!!
I’m thinking about redoing my island terraforming and deco ( I like it a lot, but redoing it is super fun too ), do ya’ll have cottagecore/cute inspirations ?
how many stairs can u build?
8
@silent thistle I want to do something similar so we could help each other out if u want to lmao
@woven drift id post this in #flower-plants-trade
ah damn it’s so stupid that 8 is the limit!
So I just got Judy, and I want to make her front yard a galaxy, pink and blue theme! I have some nova lights, moon chairs, moon, and hysanth lamps, any ideas?
I have a residential area with kabuki and coco cuz they’re houses r the same color, its the color of coco. Im wondering what fencing/ furniture and other items i can use to decorate their area. This is kabukis house for reference
Does anyone know what flower breeds and colours fit best for a tropical island resort theme ?
Lf for something to fill this spot at the bottom any suggestions pls
Maybe something with flowers? There’s a lot of fun flower themed furniture so maybe that’s a fun idea
So I just got Judy, and I want to make her front yard a galaxy, pink and blue theme! I have some nova lights, moon chairs, moon, and hysanth lamps, any ideas?
Judy is cute! @low egret I think you’re off to a great start 👍🏽
Ty!
I just got Raymond and am looking for ideas for his yard! He lives next to Marshall who has a coffee table. It’s not a ton of space and their yards overlap but I’d appreciate any suggestions 🙂
@woven drift omg we are twins! I just got Raymond, he lives near Marshall who has a coffee shop! What I did for Raymond, was I gave him kinda a mansion look! Iron and stone fencing, a lot of flowers, stuff like that!
Which looks better?
Your should do a mix of both black and white there!
Oh good idea! And I like the bottom
sir this is island layouts
i like the black garden lights
i wish mushroom stuff wasn’t so expensive to get from people otherwise i’d get a bunch of it
@hollow cedar I like the all black, it looks nice
Thanks do much guys, I really value your opinions
i like both of them tbh
Guys what Bridge fits the White wooden ramp best?
looking for some island layouts/ideas for the back of the island, w cedar trees and all that. i can’t seem to figure out how i want to terraform it
Finished my entrance:)) is there anything I can add/ remove to make it better?
Does anyone know what flower breeds and colours fit best for a tropical island resort theme ?
@ionic wyvern I personally like the pink lilies and the red, orange, and yellow pansies. I’m almost done with my tropical resort island if you ever need inspo
Tbh i don't Like the waterfall it Looks unnatural
Anyone got any ideas or tips for decorating their musuem? I wanna add waterfalls and maybe digsites
@white stump I love the waterfall! Maybe add some stone stools or log stakes?
I just started doing my villagers yards, what colour would fit more? ignore the path it is not finished lol
does this looks ok?, or should i change the incline
🤔 incline would look better if it was the brown wooden one
Ok tyvm tiff. Maybe I should change the whole island that one then
Guys help what should I do with the two penguins Aurora and Roald I have an entire small island for them
@woven drift maybe make it ice themed?
LF someone who r good in designing island need some tips from him / her
hey guys! would love some ideas how to start building on my island! i just finished my entrance (will add flowers and such later) but i’m struggling on forming the rest! any tips?
If anyone is stuck on a layout I thought I put this on here!!
what fence and incline should i change to match w this path? ;u; do u think i should stick w terracotta
@neon glen maybe the white ramp? And hedges?
Any ideas for a fairy island?
i have no stone B') LOL @hot rampart
@neon glen I don’t think the fence matches. But if you want to keep that fence, then change the ramp.
i had this b4 but i rly like the color of this path LOL
@neon glen hmmm for hedges u need weeds. Yeah I would just change the incline to a white ramp! To match the path!
@hot rampart no u need stone sticks and weeds
Was looking for someone who has paths covering there whole island! Message me! (:
Does anyone have ideas for fairy Island
@neon glen oh oops! But yeah hedges might be cute?
does anyone have any map layouts they could share 🙂
@soft belfry scroll up I posted mine hehe
alsdkfgjh; i think im gonna go back to my old one until i find better stuff to match
@ionic wyvern I personally like the pink lilies and the red, orange, and yellow pansies. I’m almost done with my tropical resort island if you ever need inspo
@twilit lintel thank you! I just started terraforming (I'm almost done with the entrance and the residential area and there are so many things I want to do but I'm not very creative 😅
@hot rampart ty! i focused too much on my entrance and now that i’m happy with it i’m overwhelmed with the rest :/
@ionic wyvern well lmk when you want to come over. mine is pretty much done except for a few minor details. @soft belfry
@soft belfry np! I understand
@twilit lintel i love how u give each villager their own facility! i considered doing that or placing them in similar locations to which they could be found in real life:) but my villagers aren’t my permanent ones so i’m thinking abt a neighborhood for now
@soft belfry yeah i originally had them in one neighborhood area, but i accidentally gave them a small yard and couldn't really decorate it properly. so i decided to move them to their own spots since i already had themed areas. I just had to change a few of my villagers to get them to fit in more properly. but since i moved them into their own areas, i was able to do more with my island and add the water bungalow resort area. and i dont regret it
this is my entrance and ive got empty space to the left and im not sure what to use it for ;-; any suggestions would be awesome!
what typical things would you find in a japanes suburban city?
@hidden scaffold i had put my nook and ables shops to the left by putting a mini plaza that had food stalls and merengue's diner. with a boardwalk at the edge of the grass
👀 sounds nice!
top 4 pictures @hidden scaffold

@twilit lintel it says i cant post
anyone have night/street market inspo pics? specifically korea but any is fine
@surreal flint mine is the ||northern one|| no lies. 🇰🇵
@oblique jungle go to the trades-rules-verification tab and read it and then verify it by clicking on the checkmark that you confirm to the rules
But don't have pics rn
hey guys i have this little empty space near my museum and i’m tempted to fill it in with flowers but i really want to put something more dynamic there!! help
@surreal flint have you tried looking at real pictures to get a good inspo?
my island theme is all black so it’s difficult to find stuff that goes with the theme
@agile girder why not put a fossil display up?
@twilit lintel alright thanks! hoarding my fossils is paying off rn
@oblique jungle whos island is that :0
looking for pier inspo would appreciate anyone sending theirs!
@foggy river my pier is a shipping port for tom nook. its the bottom left picture
@twilit lintel thank you, your island is beautiful!
how should i connect these paths? i think i’ve made it a bit awkward :/ if not a path, what should i make this small area?
I did small circles for my paths
I’m really struggling to find a theme for my island, I was going to restart everything but idk what I should theme it on, I was thinking of a Japanese suburban or a french town
@brittle tree i feel like the spacing between my paths is a bit weird
What theme do you guys would look better do you think?
French?
@agile girder u can put some completed fossils there! And maybe some museum themed panels
@opal flicker its easier to do japanese, but more unique to do french
Cool, thanks
@opal flicker just saying because japanese theme is a really popular theme, and in my opinion is overdone even though theres nothing wrong with doing it. the islands ive seen that have done the japanese theme is gorgeous though.
Yeah I agree. I have an idea what I would do in a European town but not so much in a Japanese suburbs since you can’t cram to many things into it
@opal flicker what do you mean you cant cram stuff into a japanese town?
Does anyone have like a little waiting/ collection area for GAs and such that I could peak at?
Can I see how some people would decorate their Nook's and Able's together?
@winter nacelle top 4 pictures
any more?
My airport entrance rn, I made the apartments in the back before I got white simple panels -- do you guys think I should leave the white apartments as is or switch the panels to white so that there's less color contrast? 
@plain forge i personally like the way it looks
Is it just me or does this small street feel weird ?
oh, you mean the 2 tile wide part? I hate that
@twilit lintel ooo nice, I kinda liked it too but wasn't sure, ty!
@plain forge I also like how it is !
@tropic helm maybe change some of the stall designs?
@tropic helm it will stay the way it is then tyyyy 
Does anyone here have any sort of park/community areas they can share? 
idk who could use this but this is the area beside my resident services!!
@twilit lintel I will try and see ! Thank you !
Should we get rid of the bus stop for a little music area for the villagers, boys?

Haha thanks! I just love seeing my villagers sing... maybe I’ll do it somewhere else.. 😊

I’m making a resident area and it’s only one level which I kind of regret but I don’t want to redo it...does anyone have any ideas for how to make it look nice?
@past sedge you can try to decorate their yards and the area to make it less flat? most of my houses are on one level also~
I'm looking for some orchard inspiration and ideas.
@storm bluff oh yea I could build up around it maybe
I redid my museum area!!
This is Judys front yard, hows it lookin so far?
Before
Hi! How can I even my house with the road down below?
After
@fierce spoke unfortunately theres no way to line up your house with the stairs :/
@fierce spoke you cant even it out unless your road is an odd number of squares wide. the stairs are 2 squares wide, while your house is 5 squares wide
Any ideas to add an extra bit of creepiness to this?
@fierce spoke I don’t think you can, players houses are 5 wide and stairs are 2
nearly finished my entrance, i know it’s a bittttt basic but i luv it 🥺💓 ++any advice to make it more cute ?
Thank you guys :)
what would be good to put in pietro's front yard?
@viral crater it would be cool if you built this in a dense forest area so it's hidden
im designing bobs garden, and im unsure what flowers to use. Any Suggestions?
@viral crater lots of cedar trees around it
@spring haven omg that looks amazing!! That’s my fav fossil☺️ The giant antlers are pretty and suit the woodsy theme
Exactly 🤗
Hi, I am struggling with the statue on the right. This is the best I could get it?
It looks fine to me
Phew 😅
Finally finished my entrance! What do you guys think?! CC welcome☺️
Does anyone have stairs at their entrance?

Which one better?

@sturdy ore oooh I like this! Are you going for a tropical theme? I feel like some orange flowers would look so good there
Fellas. I want die; my Plaza is nine tiles away from my airport so i cant design around it at all. Does anyone have a similar problem?
@sturdy ore oooh I like this! Are you going for a tropical theme? I feel like some orange flowers would look so good there
@gusty veldt I'm more going for something that's colour wise inspired from japanese or chinese culture. I also thought of orange roses with black roses

SEND ME SOME IDEAS
@solemn fog here’s my map with different ideas you could add
@solemn fog do you want to make your request a little more specific so we can be more helpful?
Hey does anyone have a similar layout to this or can help me with designing my island - I have no clue what I’m doing but I would like a more natural theme
@solemn fog what exactly do you need help with? Just saying you need ideas does not give us indication on what you need help with
Any ideas how I could decorate this area?
I’m thinking of making it a park area (with just benches and whatnot)
Like a zen them pls
Does anyone have an idea for this part of the island?
What should i do behind all my buildings?
@worn latch this is how mine started
@solemn fog but what specifically in a zen theme. Like what area. You’re being very vague
I’ve just unlocked the terraforming and thought I’d try this island designer to see what I can do
@jovial peak ive seen a lot of people build cafes there! i personally like putting the outdoor bath there because it looks nice on the rocks
What should i do behind all my buildings?
@woven drift what theme are you going for?
@worn latch and how it is now with 5 stars
@knotty lantern tysm!! I have literally just got the terraform option unlocked and want to start moving things around but I just had to idea on what to do design wise
@spiral swan Cutesy/ pastel ish I want a fairy tale island vibe
@knotty lantern tysm!! I have literally just got the terraform option unlocked and want to start moving things around but I just had to idea on what to do design wise
@worn latch I understand! It’s daunting at first of where to begin! Have fun with it 💖
@storm bluff we already have a bookshop/cafe on the island, that was the issue - I do love the outdoor pool idea, I think my biggest issue with it, is that there’s no perfect match pool to stone
@knotty lantern yeah! I just had no idea where to start, especially with my resident services being farther away from my airport than others
@jovial peak it's also a popular place to add a star-gazing spot
@jovial peak im talking about the outdoor bath, its a stone bath. not the pool. its a diy you can get from the nook stop
@spiral swan Cutesy/ pastel ish
@woven drift you can move your villagers houses more far apart to decorate them, you can do a pink or pastel dinner, a movie theater
@knotty lantern yeah! I just had no idea where to start, especially with my resident services being farther away from my airport than others
@worn latch I made an entrance with walkways
Ty!
No problem!
@stuck trail that would be a good idea, telescope, twinkling painting etc.
@storm bluff that’s what I meant, sorry for the confusion - I wish you could sample the ground you’re stood on and custom design it so the stones matched though - seeing them distinct outline triggers my OCD
what should i put back there? i'm looking for a moai statue but idk what to put in the other space
@jovial peak oh it's a pretty close math in my opinion! but i hope yo can figure out what to do with the rocks, good luck T__T
@storm bluff thank you!! I’ll recheck it out - i suppose if I put some moss flooring around it, it might disguise it😄
@gentle cove beautiful statue? pagoda?
@stuck trail i got a pagoda and it's too big but I'll look at the beautiful statue!
I need beach inspo for my fairycore Island 🥺
@gentle cove I think the beautiful should be around the right size, if it's too small the valiant statue might work
Hey I’m trying to make a cute camp area but I don’t know where to start if you have any inspo or ideas please tell me 😅
Genji's little lounge area. What do you guys think of it? 
I'm decided, I'm finally gonna do a market area! Do you guys have any inspiration For me?
what should i put back there? i'm looking for a moai statue but idk what to put in the other space
@gentle cove I have a moai statue if youre still looking for one.
@smoky bone I'm redoing my island so it's getting teared down (and this is an old pic so it's actually a lil more updated) but this is the front of my Japanese street market
THATS WHAT I WANT 😂
anyone need some zen inspo
@smoky bone @coral shale still an old pic but feel free to use as inspo! I had 2 villager houses in there as well 
this is the plan for my neighborhood. any ideas how i can spice it up a bit? (my island has a foresty vibe)
Yeah it looks great! I started doing one but it wasn’t going anywhere so it’s kinda half finished 😅
It took hours for me! I'm a little sad to tear it down but it doesn't go with my new theme; good luck!! I will caution that adding so much furniture in one area may cause the section to lag esp if you try to run, but it's fine when you're just walking :)
can someone give me some ideas? i like what my island has so far (yeah i know there arent any paths but im focusing on terraforming rn) but i feel like it isn't..... Finished. like it's missing something but idk what
the moai was also too big so i just edited the area to make it work, i really like how it turned out! this is my entrance btw lol
@robust mist there’s a lot of empty space, i’d suggest maybe turning that into smaller sections like cafés, flower fields, pools, and anything you can think of!
anybody have some ideas for a beach resort island? im looking for some out of the ordinary ideas i have one missing spot where i gotta put something but i have no clue. pls help!
@gentle cove that looks really cool!! I'm glad you were able to work the pagoda in tbh, it really adds to the worldly vibe more than an art statue would have 
thanks @sick pulsar !
Going to add more decorations, but do the shop placements look okay?? I’m going to do a sewing area up top next to Ables and idk what to do in front of nooks? I’m changing my entire island
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! 😊 it is a awesome island 🌴

@vernal oxide looks awesome!
@robust mist it's really cute! I had a giant circle river as my first island terraform and it was a loooot of work
and the areas around the circle was so hard to work around so it was pretty empty so I teared it down ;; gl
Beau was enjoying his garden I recently worked on tonight.
Still need to sort out what I’m doing with the left side
Could I see some campsite 🏕 ideas? I want to see what other people’s campsites look like! I’m getting tired of mine & I’d like to change it up a bit.. just looking for ideas 🙂 I have a tropical island for the most part
@sudden basalt a mini farm would look really cute
Can I see some island etrance ideas?I only have 9 tiles inbetween my plaza and airport
this catalog area is making me tons of nmts but it's going to prevent me from getting 5 stars because of litter, does anyone know a way around this? there probably isn't one but im just hoping i don't have to set that stuff out every time i want to host lol
That was a bad picture imma take another
Heart pond!
@sudden basalt a mini farm would look really cute
@woven drift Theres a big rainbow flower field to the left, its more path that i need to sort nothing too big of a feature but thanks so much for the idea ❤️
@swift citrus Mines a little more simple for the most part ☺️
Can people send me pics of their villager neighborhoods? Looking for inspo 💞
@gentle cove unfortunately the only way is to pick up the dropped items :(
@gentle cove if you readjust it a bit, you can put the items on stalls, and then they don't count as litter
Dropped items on stalls and furniture still counts as litter
huh
it sucks lmao
What is this area missing..?
im dumb mb
aww ok lol
@wary plover a fountain or a mini garden
Only items not counted are natural stuff like branches and seashells TT
@wary plover a fountain or a mini garden
@woven drift where..?
Here’s a bigger view of Beaus lil garden area. Any other ideas hit me up 🙂
Redd had Colossal heads , I bought them bc he didn't have anything else that caught my eye but I'm from Mexico so I ended making a little Veracruz Beach haha.
Lf sharks
Wanted to ask for any suggestions on what I should do with this area
@woven drift #690093605821480980
@wary plover maybe something like this
@wary plover maybe something like this
@woven drift In the garden area. Shoul I add shrubs or flowers, any specific types?
@wary plover flowers for sure :3 the type of flower is up to you, here’s some ideas
this is where i dump all my flowers when they clone.. idk what to do with them lmao
Could yall post pictures of your neighborhoods in the game? Need some inspo!
@wary plover
@latent swan i just put things in front of the houses that looked good, and i have a shop area in the middle lol
@latent swan my map and some homes. To save space, Instead of making a library I gave Kidd a library, instead of making an art studio I gave Zell an artistic yard, etc
ok weird question, does anyone know how big the diplo fossil set is when it's displayed fully
lf some nature-y themed museum ideas! im stuck with mine 😦
@bronze cairn here’s mine it’s not really nature themed but you could always change the colors :3
Any ideas of what I can put here
Also, instead of a zen garden I'm working on a shared garden for Blanche and Cranston. Still need work, lots of work lmao
@polar dagger a statue garden maybe?? (not my picture)
Any ideas on what I can do with this area right here? I’m only using terracotta flooring for the outside though. But any ideas on what I should do?
What do you already have on your island?@gilded aurora
@gilded aurora a fountain with statues and benches and bushes and hedges
any tips on how to make it cuter ??
Maybe some Nova lights?@rough hinge
I need suggestions on what I should do with this area
Does anyone know if the size is true on the Island planner site?? Just an example.. if I make a 10 by 10 and put a house in it on the site, will it look the same and everything when I actually terraform those dimensions in game??
Ping me plz. (:
everyone has these cool looking islands and mine still looks like it did in the beginning of the game
@rough hinge maybe add pink and white flowers in the front instead of the customs design?
Don't worry! You will get better and better!@rare cradle
thx
this is my river crossing in this area, it leads to my 'minigames' area with the museum, musical chairs etc, so it tends to hold people up when seven or eight of us have to cross and only one person can go at a time. i still want to do something creative here instead of a bridge, does anyone have ideas?
@tranquil sand theme?
@rare cradle ye me too bro it takes time
@woven drift more of a beachy or garden vibe
@rough hinge maybe add a few turned star clocks since they're smaller and will fit in the small area in front
Then a garden shop! Maybe?@tranquil sand
@gentle cove maybe drop the fence down and open up the river to make a 2x2 in the middle of the river isolated
It’s kind of all over the place😂
@tranquil sand I find some references
Yayyy ty guys keep sending ideas and references 😂
@tranquil sand maybe a little gardeny picnic area?!
@tranquil sand something like this??
@lime jasper @polar dagger
mini camp island
Sorry for sending so many pictures
Wow nice island!👌 @gilded aurora
Some of it is still a work in progress, but thanks! @lime jasper
idk if i like it, feels like it's missing something.. or a lot of things..
@gentle cove Maybe you can find a custom path that'll make the paths align more smoothly
Some bunny day balloons?@gentle cove
@rough hinge here’s an idea. Just make it symmetrical and ad another chair and behind both the chairs add a palm tree lamp. I can make those if you’d like and I’ll customize them to be pink! It would look pretty nice
Wow! Awesome!@jade fog
Yayyy ty guys
Wo!🤩 @jade fog
first day ver ^^
@gentle cove I saw that someone did this with diagonal bridges, but you can try to make a heart at the edge and then using a different gray path (so they don't connect) make 2x2 circles or a straight path
Does anyone have any ideas for a pet shop? I need animals in my life constantly-
@gentle cove like this! (not my pic)
Maybe in front or next to your nooks cranny u can put a bunch of dog houses and other pet things?@lean light
@lean light there's a hamster item, and you can customize pet beds to look like they have pets in them if you have spare design slots. could also place some fish as like "fish tanks"
@plain forge GENIUS OMQ
@lean light Yeah, like a hamster cage or a bird cage, just to expand off of what @lime jasper said. Maybe a sign that says pet shop?
My landscaping WIP, what should I put here? Maybe some statues or hyacinth lamps?
Oo ah!🤩 @woven verge
@woven verge Some shrubs and flowers would like nice around there, maybe a Mush Lamp if you have the DIY
should i make the flowers around here match the flowers in the cart or is it fine as it is?
Maybe Nova lights!@woven verge
ah, thank you guys!......cries in no reptile items in the game
@lunar oyster it's fine!👌
Someone help 😭 the flattened my island for hours and now I have no clue how to design as I’m very in creative
Oooo, those are great ideas thank you Guys so much! 🥺
✨
@lunar oyster I like the attention to detail, and it would be a nice little touch to add some pink pansies or yellow roses like in the cart around there, but the decision is up to you ultimately.
@lean light not a lot of animal furniture in game but you can display clown fish, surgeon fish, hamster cages, and those mom plushies to start out! Maybe cage in an area using designed simple panels so it looks like a store?
@lunar oyster I like concept of matching the wagon... maybe give it a try? it does look good with the flowers you have now, but it might be neat to incorporate the colors more
Anyone know any good YouTube videos etc that have good inspiration?
What else can I do to improve this area?
Also the snapping turtles! @lean light
@faint sigil I suggest looking up some inspo on what kind of style you want to go for and then hit up the island planner and start designing something c:
so i ended up doing this, should i try to get another bunny day arch for the other side and decorate with pastel flowers and stuff? or should i try something different lol
@unreal breach Maybe add some house plants around the seating area, or a park bench would be nice. Or you could add some shrubbery around the grassy areas to make it look a bit more fuller. But it looks amazing already.
what should i do with this are im clueless🥺🥺🥺🥺
@woven drift what else do you have around your island? And do you want that area to look similar or different?
@lean light sorry one more! you can customize cat beds!
@unreal breach Hmmm, maybe add some more furniture to fill out the area c:
My suggestions are park benches, potted plants, some lanterns and some more shelfs. Maybe also add some designs on the ground to spice things up c:
@woven drift what else do you have around your island? And do you want that area to look similar or different?
@gilded aurora i have little lounge/park area, a grand entrance for the residents’ houses and a huge waterfall🥺🥺🥺🥺
what should i use as tables to showcase a few small fossils?
@gentle cove ya! Looks great!
@gilded aurora i have little lounge/park area, a grand entrance for the residents’ houses and a huge waterfall🥺🥺🥺🥺
@woven drift If it's not too near the entrance, why not make it into a little cafe? or start another account and make a hotel there or something
@woven drift I have a list of areas to put in empty spots on your Island. If you want I can Dm it to you If that would be any help c':
@woven drift If it's not too near the entrance, why not make it into a little cafe? or start another account and make a hotel there or something
@gilded aurora thats a really good idea!!!
Thank you for the inspiration!! But I still can’t be the only one who wants more reptiles-
@woven drift Thanks! I also think it would be cool to see the list that @woven verge has
@woven drift I have a list of areas to put in empty spots on your Island. If you want I can Dm it to you If that would be any help c':
@woven verge // YESS PLEASEE!!!!!
@tardy yoke use podiums
What?
Oops wrong person I tagged
It's alright!
oh okay
Can I see people's orchards pls for inspo
Should I keep it or yeet it can decide🥺🥴
Aw
hi I’m having SUCH a hard time working on layout ideas. I just restarted my island because I was just not happy with how it was turning out. If anyone has any ideas and is willing to help me out for fun, PLEASE let me know lol.
@woven drift keep! I think it has really good structure, just needs to be filled in a bit
@reef vector here’s my map for maybe some ideas
@woven drift adding a few cedar trees might make it look fuller
@plain forge thanks Great idea
@reef vector what are the reasons why you restarted that you want to make sure you dont do on this island?
yall so brave restarting
@storm bluff mostly just that I had too much empty space that I felt like I couldn’t recover from. Nothing felt like it flowed together.
I restarted 5 times 😅😭
@reef vector is that a result of you terraforming?
my resident services is way too close to my entrance but i am too scared to restart
I wanted to restart so bad to name my island Lumica or Silver Millennium but I got too scared
Zen Garden
I want to completely redo my island so should i remove all the cliffs and water
@storm bluff not particularly. I tried to keep it pretty natural. I just didn’t have many items or paths down 😭 so it was mainly just Buildings....... Grass....... And maybe one or two random little spaces where I did something.
i hate my resident services, i have to do this type of entrance instead of a fancy terraformed area with benches and stuff :(
it still looks great :)
ALL I ASK FROM NINTENDO IS THE ABILITY TO MOVE THE DARN RESIDENT SERVICES
Why did u HAVE to?
@gentle cove you could put waterfalls
MINE IS 1 BLOCK OFF CENTER
i wanna change location of my river mouths
can i see people’s layouts for a farm?
MINE IS 1 BLOCK OFF CENTER
@void jolt omg nooo
guys do u think themes are important while designing an island? i have a really mixed theme (basically different themes in different areas to represent a more modern place and a more ancient side) and im worried it wont end up flowing together well
@lime jasper
I want to make a cute forestry camp area but I don’t know where to start..
@reef vector got it haha. just trying to see if you did things on your island that you could learn from when working on your new island but it looks like you just need inspiration to fill spaces?
@terse thicket not really
@gentle cove you could put waterfalls
@twilit lintel i want to but there's no place to put them without them being really big and the noise being overpowering lol
@stuck marlin
I have waterfalls near my entrance and the noise is bad so i just put a stereo there
@terse thicket i think it's something helpful to think about when starting to design and terraform your island because it can help you decide whether you want straight/uniform paths or more natural paths, or if you want a neighborhood or if you want to spread out your villagers, etc etc
Hehehe great idea!@void jolt
@storm bluff pretty much, yeah 😅 I’m like,, totally shocked seeing people fill their islands to the brim when it feels to me like I don’t have anything at all. I’m not great at terraforming, although I’d love to learn.
@storm bluff i do have a vague idea, im just worried it wont end up flowing together well
thanks for all ur help! :)
Should I remove all my cliffs and rivers when i want to redo my island
@gentle cove I personally don’t mind the waterfall at the entrance because you’re not spending all your time there
@terse thicket I think having multiple themes really makes an island Chase Crossing voice dynamic. you just have to focus a little more on how you want to blend or separate them
@reef vector terraforming is a lot of trial and error so dont get frustrated if something doesnt turn out like you imagine on the first try. also if you think about an overall theme or vibe it can help you figure out how to fill your areas
i usually get my ideas my while i’m doing something, for example i’m just putting down some hedges and i go “oh a picnic area would look nice here”. that’s my odd way of filling in spaces
Same@tardy yoke
@storm bluff THANK YOU 🥺💖💞✨ your advice means a lot!
@stuck trail well the more naturesy part of my island (camp, orchard and stuff) is on top cliffs so seperated from the bottom.
i was hoping i can have a more shopping mall style market area mixed with a street market area but im not sure how that will work out
thank you so much though
i wanna make my island nice and give it a nice layout so should i start by removing paths and rivers,
🦆 ❤️
🦆 ❤️
@limber ginkgo
this is yes
@void jolt that depends on you! do you think youll work better with a clean slate or would you prefer to tear down areas and build them back up in sections? both work, it depends on your preference
@terse thicket I have two resident houses that are like more stores. While I have a mini shopping building across the street from them.
Okay thanks @storm bluff
@twilit lintel that looks amazing! thank you for ur help :))
is it possible to waterscape over the water on the beach
@void jolt not possible
No@void jolt
nintendo needs to make a terraforming update
bridges over cliffs, new paths, Remove the thing where there has to be like more cliffs supporting it
@terse thicket I used simple panels to make my buildings for the mini shopping area
nintendo needs to make a terraforming update
@void jolt Right though?!
does anyone have a market they can show pics of? or a bee/ honey farm how does that even look
Do you guys have any ideas or photo of garbage/trash area? (Like a little dump alley...?)
And make sideways furniture!
and bulk crafting
i took half an hour making fish bait
😲
@hushed echo there are a few past photos if you search "in: island-layouts has:image dump"
oh, that's intresting, ty!
@hushed echo the search function here is very helpful lmao.
what should i type?
What she just said-
LA's LACMA lights!
https://youtu.be/DWhO5nZGAf8
This is the island of Happyfruit! Nicole was inspired to create some of her favorite spots in everyday life, like the Urban Lights in Los Angeles, and the outdoor carnivals like Santa Monica, all in California! She also love's the 50's so a 50's diner had to be included!
This...
Even thought irs probably fine rickrolling has taught me never to click on random youtube links lol
Even thought irs probably fine rickrolling has taught me never to click on random youtube links lol

Hey guys how should I do my entrance I am going for a fairycore island theme this is what I hv so far pls I am stuck
thumbs this up if it looks good as is or do a thumbs down if i should use terra-cotta instead
Does anybody have reference images for a more rustic looking cottagecore orchard?? Im so stuck haha
I’d include a lot of barrels, buckets and maybe a water pump !! Hay bales would work too. I don’t have any images but that’s what I feel would work.@cedar lake
@lusty flicker have you tried searching "in:island-layouts has:image cafe" ?
@lusty flicker you asked that last night. And I tried helping you to find images already
Hey guys how should I do my entrance I am going for a fairycore island theme this is what I hv so far pls I am stuck
@stiff matrix I’ve seen people use the house trophy from HHA as a fairy home. Maybe place that and make it their little yard.
@teal pelican tysm!
No problem !
I can’t decide if I like it or not any opinions?
@woven drift maybe a weed or too to give it that overgrown feel. Nice color scheme !
@stiff matrix i would look for custom paths and get flowers that match your nova lights. also mush lamps and all the fairy-like stuff. id also suggest searching "in:island-layouts has:image fairycore" to see what people have posted here in the past
@teal pelican Great tip thank you😊
*two I’m illiterate 😂💀
@storm bluff tysm!!!!
@woven drift I like it!! only suggestion might be to consider having a less straight path to make it more natural looking? but I really love the border you added to it!
Thanks I thought about That but I don’t know how🥶🥴
@woven drift try using The Path 👀
@woven drift yeah I was gonna say use this AKA The Path
Thanks 😅
@woven drift custom paths (eg The Path ^^^) or getting creative with using in-game paths more like stepping stones if that makes sense? you can make different shapes with them like circles etc
@woven drift oh and also ! You can cut trees at different growth stages ! Play around with that to have variety alongside those log stakes !
@teal pelican what!! I didn't know that, that's a great tip!
Yes ! I found out from an island tour video because the tourist commented on it
does anyone have tips for marina's and pietro's yards?
My boyfriend kind of gave up on his island so I told him I’d work on it for him. He wants a city design but I don’t really know how to go about it. Pics and ideas would be greatly appreciated!
@raw steppe I put a white rattan table and chair for Marina
Top 2 pictures. Sorry they aren’t the best to see @raw steppe
@raven night have you tried searching for city island tours on youtube? there are a lot of great examples there
Top 2 pictures. Sorry they aren’t the best to see @raw steppe
@twilit lintel oooh i like
@raw steppe for marinas house in those pictures, It rly wasn’t about her yard. So I didn’t over decorate. It was about the area she was in. She’s in a water bungalow resort area on my island.
Idk if this is a good entrance
How my campsite was before how it is now which one do you guys like better
@granite spire I like the pond concept but I'm not sure how I feel about that puddle custom pattern?
@granite spire I think it looks good, but I do agree on the puddle design. It looks a bit weird
I made forced perspective what do you guys think about it ?
Looking for ideas for this area it’s the area in front my museum.
Yea i was debating it aswell thank yiu @stuck trail @twilit lintel
@gloomy patrol th front is a mini fossil display and the back is an art gallery maze
@gloomy patrol how about a little botanical garden / statue garden / art or fossil display? or a cafe area. OR you could do a "special exhibit" like space or egypt
I recommend white and red lillies for the museum
@gloomy patrol like @stuck trail you could do a botanical garden. Here’s mine for reference
🙂 this is the end result! Also looks a bit more fuller and not so empety anymore
What should I do with this green area? Helpp
@native moth add bushes and flowers
@native moth flowers? lights (like garden lanterns or streetlights?
Can someone share with me their rainbow flower garden?
Ooh yes I think I'll glad some garden lanterns ty
Thank you everyone for the ideas, I’ll play around with it and see what I can come up with.
I have a question, which object should I place in the middle of this intersection?
Fountain
@south vigil a fountain? Or a statue
@south vigil the fountain makes it feel fuller / more symmetrical
@twilit lintel yes
@south vigil not that statue though. Something bigger
fountain
Can someone share with me their rainbow flower garden
Or something taller
okay, thanks for the feedback! I'll leave the fountain
Not sure if this fits here but I got 3 golden bois!
@pale musk might fit better in #garden-science-discussion but congrats!!
can't tell what's missing but i feel like that middle area needs something
Maybe some benches
What would you think would look good here?😊 It looks so empty haha
@unreal patio maybe statues on the wood parts and replace the path designs with white flowers?
Finished my yard, what you call this theme?
@unreal patio put some nova lamps on the wood circles
Thank you for the advice everyone!😊
Does anyone have any ideas/pics for a tiki bar??
Add palm tree lamps on the sides, have some barrels behind the counter for effect, have coconut juices out on the counters @analog wadi
Maybe have a karaoke spot too
@knotty lantern I'd call that theme pastel cute uwu
@analog wadi
Omg it’s so pretty, and great ideas! Thank you! I renovated my entire island and I have a ton of room for a tiki bar lol I like the karaoke idea too!!
Show us when you finish! :))
I made forced perspective in my island what do you think about it do you have any suggestions?
i redid my Mexican restaurant, any critics?
@viral breach did you see the end result on my redds beach pathway?
Has anyone made a star fragment garden??
what would be a cute idea for a beach? something more natural
@spark plover a picnic?
I’m trying to design the whole middle part of my island with the shops and museum and townhall. I want to do lots of paving, fencing, trees, and flowers. Does anybody have something similar or willing to open their island for me to come get inspo? DM me 🙂
@woven drift here’s my map. I can’t open my island yet because I’m not home, so that’s the best I can show rn
@granite spire o henlo ^^, yea I think I did see it, barrels and cardboard boxes and maybe an anchor I think
Hi guys i want some help designing my island with trees, décor, and other fun things dm me and i am willing to pay just want to make it look good 🙂
My island is coming together rather nicely but I still have this empty spot by the beach that I'm not sure what to do with. Adjacent is my playground (West) and Karoke Tiki Bar (South).
Open to ideas. 🙂
@spark plover I saw a tour where someone did a turtle sanctuary on their beach, which was adorable 🥺 are you looking for something more natural like untouched nature, or just something understated?
Wrong video 😂
@granite spire oh XD I was boutta say "yea I think I've already seen that"
Pic for reference:
omg i love that idea! @stuck trail do u know what video it was?
ahhh I know it was chase crossing, lemme see if I can find it again quick!
ok tysm!
@viral breach
Anyone got good maps?? Resetting my island
@granite spire OOOO I LOVE IT 'w '
@hybrid sable
@analog wadi : Here is a picture of my Tiki Karaoke Bar:
@knotty lantern Whats that path called?
@spark plover my bad it was wilbos world! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ASEcTKbe6M turtle beach starts at 13:24
Today we tour "Yellow" by "Jhe". An Island that has everything a Villager could need throughout their life. It has a Clinic, Outdoor Library, Classroom, Cemetery, Hotel, Mansion, Turtle Sanctuary and so much more! Come and take a journey with me in this island tour adventure. ...
Has anyone made a star fragment garden??
ty!! :))
Anyone wanna help me decorate my beach? 🙂
@crimson dagger here’s inspo
Sorry for the low quality, but any ideas on what I can put along the left side? It’s kinda in the middle of my residential district and leads up to the secret beach.
Can you help me with like a little surf shop/ tiki bar kinda of thing would really enjoy that/
@wheat tusk try to put some trees, bushes, or flowers with maybe a bench or a small picnic area
@crimson dagger well first you’re gonna need surfboards and stalls and maybe simple panels
Do you have any for sale or know a good way to get them?
@wheat tusk I agree, your villagers will probably hang out there a lot if it's by their houses so a place for them to relax/chill would be well-placed there
@crimson dagger I have them to catalog but not sell. You can buy them on the furniture trade channel or on nookazon
Sounds like a plan then! Thanks!
Kinda of a hastle for you but if i buy them can you come and help me set it up on my beach?
@crimson dagger try to go to the #furniture-trade channel or the #cataloging for help with those certain items
@crimson dagger I can’t personally set them up for you...I can’t put stuff down for you
sure that will bee nice 🙂
So this is my star gazing area! Any suggestions on what I should add??
@crimson dagger you are the only one that can put stuff down. And only when you don’t have visitors on your island
Ahh okay
So this is my star gazing area! Any suggestions on what I should add??
@frank linden
Oooo that’s gorgeous!! @woven drift
@woven drift are those fragments or clocks
Added flowers and garden lanterns :)
@woven drift are those fragments or clocks
@twilit lintel fragmenta
@woven drift I would turn them into clocks because ppl tend to steal the fragments
Really liking how my little outdoor lounge area is coming along : D
@woven drift I would turn them into clocks because ppl tend to steal the fragments
@twilit lintel yes I know..but only good friends come to my island hahahahha
can yall send some pictures of some good maps im bulldozing my island and need new inspo
This is where mine currently stands
@polar flume
the man the myth the legend has returned
anyone have good ideas or pics of a outdoor reading area/ library
how are yall so creative //
Just looked for inspo and asked for advice and lots of YouTube videos
what should i add to my island?? im stumped on ideas and need inspiration 🥺🥺🥺
Does anyone have ideas for how to decorate my beach I already made a tiki bar and plan on making an Egyptian area
@somber lava scroll up to my map. It has some ideas
I finished my sweet stitches house and i’m in love!!
this is my map after i got rid of everything besides the cliff in the back, idk what to do
do y’all have any waiting area ideas/inspo near the entrance?
@polar flume I’ve did that 5 times before I got to where I am now
Because everyone loves a good Flick photobomb.
ive redone my island countless time and im never happy with the result and i can never imagine what i want in full i can usually like imagine bits and pieces and then i cant like actually accomplish it
@polar flume just finish one area at a time. And then build upon it
good idea thanks for the tips @twilit lintel
@polar flume I usually started with my shops and campsite and figuring out where I want it placed
@twilit lintel thanks!!
yeah i wanna start with my shops just trying to decide where i want them
@polar flume Ya I feel ya what I do is whenever i have an idea i put it into place right away and some days I don’t end up playing because I just don’t have the motivation. I have a café done and beside it it’s a large empty plot for now it looks stupid but i’m hoping with more pinterest inspo i’ll be able to finish my map!
It's better to have something to work off of than never starting at all waiting for a good idea.
anyone got any waterfall templates or photos?
trying to start my entrance the town hall is super close tho anyone had the same issue?
@rustic gorge yeah i need to start looking at inspo from more places cuz im always at a loss
@twilit lintel before i bulldozed everything it was cottagecore but now idk what i want it
@polar flume To do my yard for stitches i looked up others yard and I was able to see what I wanted to but i also based his yard off of how I see him it’s hard sometimes because it also doesn’t help if you don’t have the items you want to make a certain place look perfect. I highly recommend nookazon to get those missing objects if you haven’t used it before.
@polar flume what theme are you leaning towards
@polar flume i recommend starting at your entrance
@rustic gorge for my neighborhood before i based their outside yards off of how the inside looks. not entirely but enough to create something that makes it show what type of person lives there
also my map layout as of right now haven't labeled much more since most are bound to change
@twilit lintel honestly i dont know i like cottagecore, but i also dont rly want it that much anymore and i like to use the in game paths like the wood and terracotta
trying to start my entrance the town hall is super close tho anyone had the same issue?
@icy flint i had that problem too here is my entrance for inspo
@polar flume in my opinion, cottage core themes are overdone. It’s a great theme but it’s done a lot.
How are yall able to finish yalls island i can barely be satisfied with my entrance 😳
What do u guys think of this as a kinda nature style?
I rly need some advise
@twilit lintel yeah that's why im kinda over it
@sage ether samee
@sage ether I’m over 700 hours of play time that’s why
@drifting fox thats super cute!
I-
@polar flume why not try a more modern theme. Some ppl are basing their islands off of European cities
Thx
what themes do you guys recommend
im only at 430hrs
@woven drift my theme is tropical resort
i honestly don't have a theme im just going with the flow lol
@twilit lintel ooh
@twilit lintel yeah maybe i still dont have alot of items tho to fill up spaces i kinda have an idea but its not necessarily theme based just kinda whatever pops into my mind
i was thinking of theming different areas and not stick to one idk
@woven drift thats a good idea too
thats what im doing as well im just trying to add things to certain spots when i have the inspo but i feel like my island isnt that far to have a certain theme
@woven drift like my overall theme is tropical resort but there’s areas that aren’t but it’s stuff you can find in a resort. @polar flume try going on nookazon to catalog items. That’s what I did so I was able to get a lot of items
What do you all think? :’)
Just got back after a while!
@icy flint you’ve seen my island. You know what I mean when my island theme is tropical resort but it has different areas to it
@twilit lintel yeah lol like the campsite in my opinion its not very tropically but it fits the island nicely and compliments it on its own if that makes sense
@twilit lintel yeah nookazon would be useful
@icy flint yeah I know what you mean. It’s something you can find on a real tropical island because there’s so many activities you can do on a resort
:)
thats super cute @opaque briar
@polar flume I use nookazon all the time when I’m impatient about getting items
Here’s some inspo of my café I don’t have a theme yet sadly I kinda just have a theme of having everything match like you can see i had a color scheme of green black white and beige
Can I see anyone's orchard? I need some inspo😅
@opaque briar love your tile pattern. do you happen to have the code for it?
I'll see if I can find it
all of these make me think wow im redoing my island and i could never
I have a huge empty space in my shopping area any ideas?
;-; rip
@wispy jay
maybe put stalls with items lie your nativie fruit on the stalls idk
trying to start my entrance the town hall is super close tho anyone had the same issue?
@icy flint
ima about to steal that idea @woven drift
I'm looking for some amazing wild west or any sort of horse stall are please and ty!!!! Or any star gazing areas!!!! Please @ me
Maybe a little cafe sorta area @spiral swan
has anyone built like a bigish parking lot by their shops? it could be a big space filler and itd make sense in terms of real life
@icy flint I like how that looks
@cobalt magnet use their corral fence to make a horse stall
@polar flume haven't seen a big parking lot but i have seen some drive in movie theaters
im trying a cottagecore thing but everything is packed so tightly together does anyone have any ideas like for small spaces ot item ideas 😳
@wispy jay its nothing special but it takes up some place and it looks neat for my liking
@icy flint true but u like it in your own way
@buoyant forum that was my problem i couldnt fill the empty spaces and it was awful so i just threw flowers and trees and bushes everywhere
pls i need tiny things for my cottage core idea
@wispy jay that's what only matters your island your rules
@buoyant forum
@spiral swan maybe a sitting area with a forest type of look
@buoyant forum that was my problem i couldnt fill the empty spaces and it was awful so i just threw flowers and trees and bushes everywhere
@polar flume oof
Should I do stone walls or hedge walls to accent my island? I’m putting them around resident services also.
@icy flint That's what I like about this game
when in doubt slap some flowers, bushes, or trees or maybe a bench in a small spot - words said by nyack
@opaque briar if you’re could send in a dm that’d be amazing! thank you!
I am wondering what island aesthetic would fit my villagers. I do not know what to do yet. (Btw Stitches is moving in soon)
trendy
@cyan dune put them into different themed areas to match their house
Modern> I am wondering what island aesthetic would fit my villagers. I do not know what to do yet. (Btw Stitches is moving in soon)
@cyan dune
@cyan dune either separate them into themed sections or if you want them into one area, perhaps a more metropolitan or suburban neighborhood
@woven drift how
Someone made that city from Greece in the game, can someone help me find the owner?
My island name/theme is candy land and I can’t think of any ideas on how I could decorate my island and t more visitors, any suggestions? (Ps I’m very new at animal crossing so I’ll still learning)
@woven drift there’s not many items that will fit your theme honestly unless you custom design everything and there’s not a lot of design slots
also this is probably the simplest tip in figuring your island layout but I find it useful having my paths already laid down I find it makes it easier to figure out what I could place in a certain area:)
I’m not the owner of the image, I found it online but there’s no source so I want to find who it belongs to to see their other pictures
any orchard/ garden ideas ☺️?
@twilit lintel yeah that’s what I’ve done so far I just wasn’t sure if I was missing anything
lots of flowers
@woven drift perhaps use the frozen set and its recolours to look like "hard candies"
@soft plaza I love that idea
@woven drift I think its this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kE9NweXhTGc

im big time struggling with map design how do i make my island not look so flat but not look unnatural all my cliffs look weird
doe anyone have a code for a see through thing so my flowers dont breed and overpopulate xd
@buoyant forum just use the paint can to paint a design completely transparent
@buoyant forum tbh from personal experience dont try to do that but just let them grow out and then dig them out
im kinda thinking of selling judy but idk who would i replace her with that isnt scary and fits my theme
any tips for getting a 5 star island?
@icy flint I would like to hear more about this personal experience?? what issues did you run into?
@stuck trail not issues but it was annoying not having flowers grow since i covered but the spacing around it so i just erased them and had grass and let them grow out for more spaces to breed and get a hybrid
ok
@thorny nacelle Lots of plants, lots of fences, lots of trees, lots of furniture and 10 villagers https://www.ign.com/articles/animal-crossing-new-horizons-how-to-get-5-star-island-rating
Can I place a human resident house on the beach or on the beach rocks?
@icy flint ahhh okay! gotcha
@warped locust beach yes, beach rocks no
not on rocks utopia
@storm bluff k ty!
was thinking of terraforming mountains in my flower garden so the flower bed is on a mountain if you know what i am saying
i hate making clifs because its impossible for me to make them symatrical
my ocd makes me good at them lmao
I need help figuring out what objects i should use for fangs yard
@icy flint I’ve seen someone do that..
@twilit lintel im not going to start now tho need to plan it out and i have other things im working on anyways
i have the hardest time getting new diy's and items
@buoyant forum do you go visit your villagers when they are crafting
half the time the message in a bottle had the same diy
my farmer’s market!
and i visit my villagers they give me the same thing everytime
@buoyant forum its best to have different personality types for villagers since some can only be gotten from certain types, you can get three villagers crafting, 6-12 12-6 and 6-12 again
Hi! I just got terraforming & i really need some inspiration. Could I visit someone's island for a tour? Dm if you could!
i have different types aswell rip
@sage dock
@buoyant forum you could also always try finding them on nookazon i have a rare diys im trying get rid of if you want come over and check some:)
@rustic gorge could you dm me ur nookazon
@buoyant forum I have a bunch of diys I’m trying to get rid of too if you need any
Can y’all like send me something to do with my shops 💔💔 like u have no idea-
@woeful magnet top 4 photos
Tyy! @twilit lintel
Can anyone show me your path to the secret beach? Trying to get inspirstion 😊
@woeful magnet
Oh my lord that’s you? I saved a video of your village a while back! @soft plaza
@woven drift orchard maybe?
@woven drift maybe an orchard
@woven drift its a big space and its in the middle there are a lot of options as making it like a stargazing spot,
@zenith shoal path to redds's secret beach
how are all of you doing this
so i lost all my inspo pics, if anyone can dm me with anything thats like a flower shop or greenhouse, anything european town inspired, i'd really appreciate it <3
@buoyant forum custom patterns can go a long way in giving an area a vibe, sticking with only the paths the game gives you can only get you so far
ill try it
Okay so I need some help so I'm trying to do this lake in the center of my island what should I move
what @soft plaza said in the beginning i usually place all of the set paths everywhere and now since im redoing my island it looks so much nicer and more with certain theme you're going with
What furniture should I replace the ramen and curry bowl with (circled in blue)? I'd rather have furniture be there since I already have ramen and curry in their booths
@cyan glen those are custom brimmed hats to look like food you can probs find then #clothing-codes
@soft plaza I mean I wanna get rid of them and replace it with furniture
what can i do to change/improve this spot right here
What furniture should I replace the ramen and curry bowl with (circled in blue)? I'd rather have furniture be there since I already have ramen and curry in their booths
@cyan glen maybe a paper lantern or lamp
@cyan glen if only there was a version of the stack of dishes (can't recall the item name) that had chopsticks 😭 RIP WRONG MANGO SORRY
lmao its fine
@lament steeple thanks! I'll try paper lanterns and see how that looks
@stuck trail are you talking about the outdoor picnic set?
does anyone have any codes for cottagecore theme islands
@icy flint ah, got it. "dinnerware" is the item name!
which path should i use for my island?
i like the one above because colors are more balanced (rather than more brown)
i think if you had more colored things around your grass/path, the dirt path would work too
@glacial lily Either one of them works, if you were to use the bottom one, try to add some bends here and there as too straight of a path can seem to artificial
does anyone have any cottage core designs xd i have one design
What can I do with the entrance to my island. I don't have a lot of space and don't really want to move the shops as its easy access for visitors. Any ideas? Thanks
Gah! I felt so stuck in redoing my island, im inspired to just reset everything and start fresh... but like.... i have raymond and sherb. Ya feel me?
ok nvm i replaced the other items with turnips to make it seem like an actual farmers market but here’s the finished area!
@torpid cosmos can put the houses on the beach and flatten everything lol instead of resetting
finished my pool area, thoughts?
if ur not attached to them sell them and have a friend hold on to the stuff
I’m not too thrilled with the flowers I chose any ideas?
@atomic quest thats actually a good idea!
o idk redo ur island up to you
@woven drift cute!! youre gonna have to replace the turnips every week since they spoil though T___T
yeah thank you :)) and hahah i’m prepared to do so! @storm bluff
time to spend 2 hours covering all of the stones to grass again
felt
@deft flicker what about mums instead of the lilies? I find it so hard to blend lilies with any other type of flower
i think lillies are okay with cosmos & hyacinths
Gah! I felt so stuck in redoing my island, im inspired to just reset everything and start fresh... but like.... i have raymond and sherb. Ya feel me?
@torpid cosmos
Many have regretted resetting their island so be 100% you want to do it. But like other people said try flattening
ooo big brain ima work on my museum and save a small land for the upcoming building
How close can a house be next to a river ?? Does it have to be a block away?
yes
Any pictures I could use for ideas I’m trying to do a city themed island and I got no idea where to go now
what should i put next to my museum xdddddddddd
@haughty terrace at least one block away i think, same goes for all buildings
@wary wyvern have you tried searching up city island tours on youtube? lots of good examples and a video might help you better than photos would
@buoyant forum fossils or art maybe
@soft plaza ok tysm!
i did a hybrid flower plot in front of my museum
@buoyant forum I did a art gallery maze behind my museum.
@storm bluff I’ve seen a lot but I will try to see more thanks
stealing @twilit lintel idea and doing an art maze lmao
lol
@buoyant forum i put an outdoor library/art area next to my museum
when i visted her island i took pics to go back and look at lmao
Anybody have cottage core marketplace pictures?? anything helps ^^
@icy flint lmao it’s not stealing. It’s borrowing and customizing it to fit to your style.
ima do that
Is the upgraded museum with the Redd update also 7x4?
yes it doesnt change
yes
@icy flint unless you do the exact way I did it lol. That’s stealing
upgraded buildings stay the same size
Okay so I had a weird idea to make an orchard and also put my honey bees and hives in front to make it like a smoothie bar since I’m going to make a pool area to the left of it and it’s near the beach (will be putting flowers and more stalls with mixers around). But what do you guys think so far?? Is the idea too weird? -reason for honey is because I love honey in my smoothies and I miss making them lol
Thank you!
@twilit lintel lmao to the very last detail
@icy flint lmao
robbing ideas like
Does anyone need flowers? Free free free all sorts
@vernal oxide it could work, though i suggest chaning the pattern on the stall to fit with the brown palatte you have with the orchard and apiary
arnt prurple pansies rare or something
@soft plaza I planned to change that haha I just only had that one stall because it’s for my surf shop, had to test how it would look
or was it blue roses
@buoyant forum the only "rare" flowers out there are blue and gold roses
@soft plaza aren’t green mums as well

But what do you guys think so far?? Is the idea too weird? -reason for honey is because I love honey in my smoothies and I miss making them lol
@vernal oxide I think it would look great!
i added some more pops of color but i’m still not sure about the dirt path. what path do you guys think?
lol i have tons of blue ones i thought they were common
@buoyant forum there’s not purple pansies I believe. But there’s purple hyacinth and mums
i added some more pops of color but i’m still not sure about the dirt path. what path do you guys think?
@glacial lily The stone path looks better
@twilit lintel there are purple pansies
i have purple pansies
Ooooh okay did not know
@buoyant forum blue roses are rare to actually make when breeding flowers but once you usually get one you can get multiple
purple mums are easy its the green mums that are hard to get, as well as black cosmos, or any black flower in my opinion and blue roses
dont two purple mums make a green though
yes
i added some more pops of color but i’m still not sure about the dirt path. what path do you guys think?
@glacial lily i have some path codes that would look good there i can send them to you if you want
oh ok
yes they do but only a 25% chance with only one person watering it
can anyone dm me some cottagecore codes for paths xd
i have pre made flower patterns for the flowers (a before for were you should but them, and after the full pattern or atleast where they should be growing)
i have green mums aswell lol
@buoyant forum i just searched up "cottagecore path codes" on google and found a lot 🙂
@storm bluff ill try that
@buoyant forum go to #path-codes and do "in: #path-codes has:image cottagecore" in the search bar
does anyone know how big brewsters building going to be? or should i just guess a plot
!oh ok ty
@icy flint has that been confirmed?
@storm bluff not 100% but data miners confirmed brewster will be in the game
what about brewster
Pink or white flowers?
there has only been data mine data showing brewster and a brewster shop, but its not confirmed if its a separate shop or addon to an existing building
@icy flint got it lol, if that's the case idk why youre asking for dimensions when nothing has been announced. at this point we'd all be guessing right?
@soft plaza better safe than sorry if he doesn't have his own place then atleast ill know that i have a space ready
probably the size of the camp or nooks cranny
Can someone show me their rainbow flower garden
I know people were mentioning doing parking lots but if you don’t want to commit to a large parking plot you could always do a bike stand:)
@rustic gorge very cute!! were you thinking of putting things on the stalls?
Its actually not mine😔 found it when i logged into my pinterest haha
how did you get that bird sign?
which path do you like better??
Right side
@buoyant forum pocket camp
ty
oh
@modern goblet personally prefer the right, more contrast
im just wishing on stars lol
honestly same rn lmao hopefully it looks like ima get some tonight
May i see someone's like little shopping area for inspo🥺 🤏
Suspension or wooden bridge for a cottage core island?? im stuck haha
suspension
i use suspension
This would be such a cute idea omg🤩
or wood if you don have alot of bells
ok ty!
@haughty terrace I'd say it depends on the pathing you use, if the pathing is more akin to brick or stone go with stone, if its wooden or dirt paths go with either wood or suspension
@soft plaza mine is more of a dark kind of wood?? more witchy i guess, would you say a wooden bridge would be better for a more of a witchy/dark wood island??
yes
@rustic gorge i thought of doing a zoo it just didnt really fit my theme very cool tho
isnt that weird having animal villagers and then making a zoo ;-;
Hey - I’m in the middle of doing an Amsterdam river/market stall area - what furniture could I add to it? Green iron chairs/coffee cups etc. - but what else?
stalls
your villagers could be your zoo animals 🤯
simple panels
The wheel barrow full of flowers
@buoyant forum what about for the river sides? Used hedges down the side
i used random log things
And street lamps Maybe Green to fit the benches
my nook shop never has the diner furniture
i got a little island thibking of putting a bench and a tree and few flowers, anyone got any pics of something similar?
@buoyant forum could you DM me a pic of yours for inspiration please!!😄
Same @sturdy field
Hey - I’m in the middle of doing an Amsterdam river/market stall area - what furniture could I add to it? Green iron chairs/coffee cups etc. - but what else?
@jovial peak
