@dim flax
uh! thank you 😄 @fallen citrus
@dim flax np ☺️
oh my god, my villagers are finally actually in their yards. this is a miracle
Is dark dirt path better than grass field? Im trying to make a rainbow flower field
probably better to do a grass field, dark path kinda looks like it’s muddy?
Dark path is only better on small quantities, right?
https://twitter.com/eggpods/status/1279700682426028032?s=21 sorry its bad 🥺🥺
Dark path is only better on small quantities, right?
@random jewel yep, definitely! It looks great when used in smaller quantities
no it looks good! There’s quite a bit of empty space but nothing that can’t be fixedd
tyy i just finished moving some buildings i have to decorate now
Thanks fam. I will restart my flower field anyways. 2 flower per color/species is too much. I dont have space. So id put it to one
omg that's adorable
Diagonal is better than vertical flower arrangement in rainbow field right?
think it’s possible to pull off a vertical one but diagonal does look much better for me
Tho its only one per color/species.
ye i think it looks much better
my secret zen area. dont mind the random flowers on the beach 
Thanks! Will post when its done
ooo pretty! I should probably make a zen area too
ty! im adding a larger one in top right of my island
What is that tub thing? Looks cool
cypress tub im pretty sure. i got it from redd but i think nook sells it
Oooohhhhh. Maybe i could catalog that sometime :3
yes😊
here’s my alt’s house area, it’s a wip (need to put in more purple hyacinths, change the fencing and customize the house) but I like how it looks! I hate how the player houses are 5 wide bc its not centered tho :((
Wow
The stone diys were a pain to craft because they needed so much stone 
Made a sunfish monument lol
Finished the new museum entrance just need the actual museum to move 😂
ooo congrats! I dont have an entrance for any of my buildings 😔
The museum is the only one with an actual 'entrance' so far. I'm gonna work on a grand entrance for my house though
I wish you had the option to customise the resident services exterior like in NL
ahh yeah :((( i would love that
someone has some Beach towels that i can buy?
@hollow copper wow, I love that korok seed riddle!
@hollow copper wow, I love that korok seed riddle!
@chilly vine yahaha!!! i stole it from botw lmao
@dim flax #furniture-trade
I was just gonna do impas house but I was like..no this is too hard and did whatever that was lol
@hollow copper I’m gonna copy that^^
go ahead, the more koroks in acnh the better!! (plus i copied it from botw lol)
oh here’s my map! It’s a radioactive mess between a city and forest
Has anyone done anything for the beach to the north where Redd shows up? Looking for some ideas for better access...
bored of my island now :< is it time for the flattening
@stoic rover
@stoic rover i put the new pirate stuffs on redd's beach, + oil barrels, oil cannister for him to refill his boat's tank, and beach bed for him to chill and enjoy his gold bars
@stoic rover i made a "black market" with a secret entrance
i saw a lot of ppl put fake arts etc on the way leading to it
@limber ginkgo that's cool you set up a whole market there. @atomic quest I like the idea of putting the pirate stuff there! I haven't collected any yet tho
@stoic rover
@stoic rover i saw people even use the prison bars too! theres also codes for "wanted signs" to put up in front, cardboard boxes, flea markets, some barrels
depends on how you see him really, i see him as a hobo with loads of profit from the fake arts so he likes his blings. but he can also be a classy smuggler hence the arts on the way to his boat, and the markets make sense cus he doesnt just sell arts
^^^^ agree 100%
I have started to transform my island, does anyone have some tips?
ive seen some that even made it a "treasure cove" type of area which is really nice
@hoary flax what i did to kinda start off was just plan what you want. like do you want a residential area or have the villagers spread apart? if so where would it/they go? for me i wrote every idea just in case i would forget. i also would just like to say to take your time, breathe, and go with the flow of creativity. terraforming + transforming can be very overwhelming!
Step 1: suffer
Step 2:cry
ooooooo also pinterest helps a TON
Ty guys!! <33
What can I put in this area? Its big not overly big space :/
my busy island ><
my entrance 😔
i literally have no clue on how to layout anything, i try to do something but it looks bad. im stuck and if anyone can help ill appreciate it.
@flat portal i'm in the same pinch, I keepnlooking at stuff on youtube, insta and pinterest butnit just doesb't work for me. Maybe i coule go to your island and you tell me what kind of stuff you'd like and i can tell you were it'll look good?
Can I see layout of bridges?
Does anyone have pictures of spa areas for inspo ?
@flat portal I looked up multiple reference pictures for how I wanted my town to be layed out and house arrangements and stuff and smooshed them all together until it wasn't trash lol sorry if this didn't help :(
@flat portal this is what I ended up with
I like adding paths where paths aren’t normally seen lol idk if this makes sense but picture a path in between trees, behind flowers, etc
Got some work done on my campsite 🥺
not sure what to do about the flowers, I just put random clusters together of the same color and it worked out alright
i like using red pansy, orange pansy and black cosmos for campsite cus the colour combo reminds me of campfire and cosy
anyone have any ideas of what i should put in this thin strip of land ? 😅
okie!! thanks guys <33
Can anyone help me find an island map design,
Most of the map is water with little bits of land representing little islands, and the shapes are hearts, stars, moons, and dots
If anyone has the image of what I'm thinking of, I'll be very grateful
I just got Dobie and I have many ideas and some questions. My idea is to make his yard a little outside library with bookshelves, stacked blocks and a typewriter. I’m just wondering what color of wood would go well with his house. His house looks like this:
Im very unsure, dark brown would looks very nice but might not fit in while black might be very boring and could make everything feel like one color, green is an option but I’m not a giant fan of the look of it. Hmm
Hey! I got bored and recently saw a video of someone designing their island layout so I finally decided its time to plan out my island! here is what I came up with. Looking for any advice or thoughts on the layout (Its a bit rushed)
@rigid wyvern are you doing a cottagecore themed island?
@ocean igloo i thought the combination of wood used in here look nice (obligatory not mine) source: https://twitter.com/livinstrathmore/status/1277741170957914114?s=20
@deep zephyr Not exactly I wouldn't know what the style would be called
@ocean igloo i thought the combination of wood used in here look nice
@atomic quest oooo I like that, ty <33
@rigid wyvern Your map design is good tho! I tried doing one once but ended up scrapping it and going with the flow lol
@deep zephyr I see, thanks though I appreciate it! ^^
which is probably why my map looks chaotic lmao
waw all the popular villagers
It looks great
chaotic maps are so cool
Does anyone know where this image originates from?
Is it alright to place a small forest background behind the resident services?
@deep zephyr are you doing cottagecore? i decided to scrap my japanese themed island for cottagecore and even though i only have the entrance half finished im having so much more fun with it!
Help! Should i put something here or leave it as is?
probably put something like plants ig, i’m not the best at decorating though
@worldly night It's was created using this
https://eugeneration.github.io/HappyIslandDesigner/
If that helps at all
Thanks
i think only cottagecore works for me cus my brain is so unstructured and all over the place lol. i wanna switch to urban island or european city but they're always so well structured >.<
yeah cottagecore is better for me because i cant think structurally and making polished things is too hard lol the cutesy clutter of cottagecore is definitely much more me
Anyone have any museum designs
Me with my impulse decision-making and an inability to plan for the future and stick to what I have: heehee im gona move this house just becaus heeheehoohoo here’s audie’s current yard, i’m gonna move her house now rip
@ebon oak heres my old museum design :) https://twitter.com/Xemii13/status/1263192666180743174
Audie's house totally designed for beach side
@limpid aspen I’m actually doing a combination of the two styles you mentioned!
Would love to get some inspo for a reading nook/area 💗
One more for the Audie Beach house pile
Taking a night stroll around my favourite spots on my island. 😊
@lone delta wow that looks amazing! 
looking for a good cottagecore island entrance i can steal
@manic sigil thank you! 
In progress of deleting everything again
Hey guys, what does cottagecore mean? It sounds nice but I have no idea what it is lol
What are the best detailing flowers? Except for green mums
Who wants Henry as their yoga instructor?
@ocean igloo I like white hyasinths and cosmos
Tyyy
@uncut spindle basically natural
@uncut spindle basically this 
@atomic quest ok lol thanks
very accurate!
@atomic quest so it's essentially the same as a natural island or...?
and lots of terraforming + waterfalls
So basically, natural but the land isn't natural?
made to look natural i guess.
The term cottagecore refers to an online movement that celebrates the beauty of agricultural life. The movement emphasizes harmony with nature and living a simple farm life away from the industrialization and chaos of the rest of the world. Common elements of cottagecore include vintage pottery, simplistic baking recipes and flower farms.
Hmmmm ok lol, thanks
it uses lots of earthy tones e.g. brown, green as opposed to grey that's being used a lot on urban
I don't maintain this area a lot and had several days of rain 
It looks quite cute tho haha
Does anyone know of any codes that would look good on a simple panel for a surf shop
@uncut spindle basically this :meowgiggle:
@atomic quest RIP my island
and mine lol xD cept i don't have dobie, normal dirt path for my farm and all colours of flower
House entrance so far. Might also put imperial fence around the fountain still undecided. Also using a dual staircase below in the future
Hi, I'm looking for inspiration for a small market area, with stands and antique stuff I'd say 😊
Dobie was the first villager I went after lol
What do I do here?
thoughts? ✨
@untold vault it's a Good start and I like the perspective, I'd add some flowers or maybe a bench to look fuller
@untold vault Good, but cliffs are little bit sharp
Thanks @smoky bone , @chilly vine 🦆
@woven drift area 51? Radioactive zone or something:)
What is your theme?
hey im so bored of my town i would like to improve it but i don't know what to do im afraid to do shit normally i know what i want but rn i don't know its like i don't have anything to decorate my town i feel like shit halp
My island look like this
i would like to create the feelings that my island is endless but i don't know how
Does anyone have a boardwalk I could@take inspo from?!
@chilly vine It was supposed to be ok motors but I scrapped it
@gaunt dagger if you want your island to feel endless id recommend making winding paths from one place to another, rather than straight direct paths! if you redirect where people should go theyll get lost (in a good way) and it will make your island feel really big
@gaunt dagger if you want your island to feel endless id recommend making winding paths from one place to another, rather than straight direct paths! if you redirect where people should go theyll get lost (in a good way) and it will make your island feel really big
@storm bluff thank for the advice but im not really sure how to make it
@gaunt dagger id recommend watching @shell tiger’s island tour! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVgmfAfsgwM to get a good idea!
lots of small cliffs create winding hidden paths that lead from one place to another.

@versed wadi ayyy you got an island tour!
Does anybody have a good idea for a shed? I've been trying with the stall but it just doesn't seem to look nice
anyone got any ideas for me?! My island is a mess and I don’t really like the layout
@rugged nacelle I got similar layout with the rivers mouths and piers. I made an town on the bottom right of my island as in my layout picture and some nature on the other sides. https://twitter.com/AcMadagascar/status/1264255839054884864/photo/1
How do I get ‘The Path’ ?

How do I get ‘The Path’ ?
@woven drift I think its MA-6647-9230-4716 :)
A little big of a variety with the nova lights...
@wooden pecan Rip my able sisters is closed
aw no D:
Hi all!
I really need help,
There is not one part of my island I am in any way happy with.
I see all these areas but nowadays I need to see a map, I think I'm designing things the wrong way.
I want to go for a chill cottagecore vibe, which involves a lot of terraforming. Please help me with any tips or maps you have!!
I impulse-moved audie’s yard and honestly it looks much better like this! Happy with it :))
anyone knows what a good name for a island with roads is ? i need some inspiration!
any ideas for how i should waterscape? mostly the main rivers
i really love this image of bob and chief's house
Hello! I would like ideas on what to put in this plot of land? I have a gym and a cafe already.
Hello! I would like ideas on what to put in this plot of land? I have a gym and a cafe already.
@tight patio swimming pool?
that would be a good idea! but what would i use? just normal waterscapping with some regular pools and flooring?
Maybe create a custom water floor tile, copy this and then make the 9 different tiles so you can me a swimming pool in the shape you want, including nice blue water
hey could anyone help me design my island? i did it before and I dont like it. I wanna make a cherry blossom/ city/ bamboo themed island but idk where to start😓 Im also willing to pay if you name a price!
Thats a good idea! Bad thing is that im bad at making custom designs. also what do you mean by 9 different tiles.
you need 9 water tiles, 4 corners, 4 sides, and a center piece
ahh... i did not understand that.
and you just need to make sure a custom design is stackable. as in, if you place two next to each other, your pattern continues. Check the #misc-pattern-codes , there is a generator in their and maybe someone already made a custom pool design, just check the search function there
how do i search for the pool custom design? i can only do stuff like mentions, before, and after
oh wait figured it out. Do you think this is a good one to use?https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/680084043987157062/713210847547228210/pool.jpg
i used this search phrase in the discord search. "in: misc-pattern-codes pool"
without the quotation marks, there are a bunch of interesting pool designgs
yeah, they looks amazing
alright! thank you!
Hey @kindred lake I just thought. Would it be a good idea to make the water REAL water so people can actually swim in it?
sure, why not? that sounds like fun
Alrighty! i will do that then!
if you’re talking about making a pond/river, u cant swim in them. only the ocean
if you’re talking about making a pond/river, u cant swim in them. only the ocean
@neon glen good to know that information, i haven't tried swimming in the river myself yet. @tight patio
Oh. i didnt know that. Well i guess the real water still looks good though.
@tight patio
Maybe try this one for your pool
ooohh i like what they did with the pool and the design
that design is nice, especially since it matches the nook miles pool
i dont know the 9 designs
that is why the creator code is in the image
If you enter creator code. All of the pieces should be there
OH i thought that was a friend code for some reason
@lavish monolith do you know if anyone has done the other colours of pool for that? Just as I have the grey one so ye
I really struggle with building diagonal bridges
use the shovel to dig holes in the ground so you can see the spacing between objects @clever bloom
Is there anyone here who know a good beach path?
@woven drift uhhhh
@hoary flax i havent seen any. Just the white. You can trade with somebody. Check out #furniture-trade
Oki ty
@drifting fox check out #path-codes or #custom-design-help🎨
What about my little frozen market? Opnions please
Thx
Hey guys! Could people post their entrances? Looking for some inspiration 🥺
@storm mist do you have any darker custom path that you can put on the sand so you can see the furniture better. Id also suggest some ice cream lamp
Please can someone give me outdoor inspo for sherb, I have no ideas
@lavish monolith yeah, you think is a good ideia but dark path on the sand?
@lament monolith my entrance
I am trying to create a cottage core island, anyone know some good islands or outdoor furniture that would fit it? ❤️
Can I see some of your museum entrances? I can't think of a nice entrance without the museum being on an elevated land :(
@drifting vapor I love it!! The river/moat is a nice touch
We really need dream towns back
@storm mist hmm maybe some darker wooden planks. Something like this but a bit darker? Or maybe this one will work lol.
Thank you☺️ ☺️ @lament monolith
whoa that looks super cool :0 do you have the code??
@lavish monolith yeah, it looks better! Thank you! :) you have the code?
Hi all! Does anyone have any natural maps they could show?
@inland wren Heres my museum area, only built up bit is the cliffs I added at the side :)
@rare raptor love the slippers
Does anyone have any trade area ideas? Looking for some inspo.
@drifting vapor thanks haha, I like to play in full comfort
Yea who doesn't?😂 👍
@inland wren I have only just started it but the bottom is gonna be a library :3
@rare raptor @hoary flax thank you!! I've been procrastinating the entrance for a week :(( they're great and lovely ideas!!

Thx @lavish monolith
Hey guys I want to create some sort of soccer field any ideas I already have the goals but is there like a field or anything?
Does anyone have tiki bar ideas?
@worn pine my tiki bar
Thx a lot
Anyone got some cottagecore island ideas?
This is my first time making a nature themed area on my island, what do you think? I still don't know how to decorate the upper part of the mountains tho
i really love the waterfalls
It's cute! Do you have the code for the dirt path tho? I've been looking for it
Anyone willing to share sherb front yard ideas?
@tawny vale it's The Path™, I don't have here the code but it's on the pinned messages on #custom-design-help🎨
@deep flax try searching “in:island-layouts has:image sherb” in the search bar, you’ll see pictures people have posted previously in this channel
Thanks so much!
JDNWJWJDJ FOR A SEC I THOUGHT THAT WAS AN ALIVE SCORPION
Hey everyone, thoughts on this beach deck area? Am I missing something or should I take something out? Waiting for more panels for the back
Really happy with how this is turning out
https://twitter.com/ChiefACNH/status/1279798341098856448?s=20
@drowsy hearth it is rlly cute! I love the colour theme too!!
@hoary flax yay thank you 🤓
I was thinking of putting my campsite on that little bit on the middle left and putting a cute path up to it, thoughts??
I unlocked terraforming today so I finally got down to designing my island layout with some inspiration from a video I saw on YouTube any ideas or input I'd love to know!(sorry it was a bit rushed)
That looks really nice! Just a personal opinion, but I think orchards take up too much space and could be used for something much better. Or at the very least if you plan on making an orchard spread it out to where it isn't just a straight line.
@zenith roost Right! Thanks for the input! This isn't a full on plan for plan but more of a rough idea I might consider incorporating fruit trees into my "foresty theme" Thanks again :D
For my island entrance, do you think I should make it just roads as soon as you walk in, or should I make a little entrance room/area?
Of course! I believe spreading them out would probably fit the foresty theme better. I'm going to incorporate Tangy's house into my orchard. Have fun terraforming!
Anyone down to help me decorate my island and bring cool stuff🌻
how do i get rid of paths??
@karmic tundra I have roads as soon as you walk in, and then near the entrance an entrance room/area
@zenith roost Haha thanks again
@lament monolith my entrance
@drifting vapor 👏
Crying cause fps keeps dropping here 😐
any advice for good island designs
This is the only space on my island I’m proud of. Still i feel like there’s something missing, any ideas!
Crying cause fps keeps dropping here 😐
@distant nimbus Wow
Well I mean does anyone have any entrance inspo? Thanks lol
@lyric mirage 😊
The only area on my island that I’m proud of
@karmic tundra here’s mine 🙂
The only area on my island that I’m proud of
@wide turret Get a chess area
@karmic tundra Here's my entrance
My entrance is just roads, be aware that it’s not great for trading if that’s something you do a lot. There’s some space for it but not a ton https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1279425241349935111?s=21
Does anyone have atleast a 4 star island I can visit alone like only me and another person I need ideas
sigh ok
@woven drift use #690093605821480980 or #mysterybags-and-yardsales
Where
i have no clue what to put here someone please help me lolol
@karmic tundra here’s mine 🙂
@versed wadi I recognize your entrance, we’re you on a YouTube island tour? Don’t think I can say the name here tho
i have no clue what to put here someone please help me lolol
@gentle cove Arch, flowers and a good amount of trees, maybe some streetlights as well
So this is my entrance, and I like it but I feel like the fences are too far apart. If I made it skinnier it would have to be uneven with the dock. Should I do that or does it look fine the way it is?
@ocean igloo yes that was me 🙂
How was the little ledges made here?
I think it looks good
@random jewel It's a custom pattern on top of the path
Oh. You can overlap? 
@random jewel yep you can overlap, only if your custom pattern has at least one transparent pixel though (:
looooooong picture
I see. Thanks! Also, if u put sand tile and put a house on it will the grass terrain still be there?
Do you think this idea need improvements?
@random jewel yes, to my knowledge
almost ready to reopen my island again after a large redecoration project. Does anyone have any public benches? mines are only green/green looking for something a bit more colorful
@hidden thorn does you just take multiple photos of your island and photoshop them together to get that image??
Do you think this idea need improvements?
Maybe make the pentagram red and black, with some orange/yellow or grey to add texture
Are there any 5 stars island I can visit?
@stuck trail yep, i just used sai to stiitch em together

@hidden thorn that's so smart omg I'm totally trying it
what should I put in my park?
@woven drift playground? band shelter? duck pond?
@stuck trail band shelter????
@woven drift idk if they're called that in other places, it's like a stage in the park for musicians or theatre groups to book and perform
Really proud of my terraforming and house setup! I call it my Mansion 😊 Ft. Spork on the left 🥰
omg @whole field that is beautiful 🥺
@gentle cove thankyouuuuu!
i’ve got these custom paths but i don’t know how to lay them out on the ground. could someone help me figure out how to lay them out?
if you dont have terraforming just press a while hovering over them
@manic sigil i have terraforming
@vapid ether have you unlocked the custom path option from your nook terminal?
have you bought the custom design upgrade yet?
yes i do. i actually meant i’m not sure which one goes where, sorry for confusion
ohhhhhh 😂
@vapid ether are the designs labelled? sometimes they'll say "right side" "nw corner" etc and that can help figure out how they're supposed to be placed
@stuck trail they have Solid Pavement, Horizontal, Vertical, Crossing EW, Crossing NS, Corner A-D, Half Left, Right, Top and Bottom
@vapid ether I don't have roads on my map but I think I can interpret it. I'll dm you
This is maples yard,, I’m really proud of it but I feel like something is missing, any ideas?
\
\
Which one looks the best ?
whats the difference? it just looks like you shifted over one tile
Hi! I’m looking for a garden bench plan, could someone help me please?
@pastel birch #721542917264638002 and then go to #furniture-trade
or #diy-trade @pastel birch (:
do u guys have design ideas? idek what to do anymore
tfw you're burnt out on terraforming but you already destroyed your island so you can't even take a break to just play normally bc everything's a mess 
also @woven drift there's a couple lists in the pins with some great ideas!
It do be lookin kinda fresh 😳
tysm! also @distant nimbus thts rlly pretty
Thank yuuu @woven drift
ofcc!
20fps in this area tho 💀
20fps in this area tho 💀
do you know why that happens?
can relate, theres an area on my friends island that slows down my switch a l o t
Cause there's 2 many items @manic sigil
@manic sigil too many items, but particularly lighting and other interactable items ime
I need help I have a mini put put place put need ideas for the holes what themes should I have???
@clever pagoda dino! the dino cutouts would be perfect for that
Ooh I have that but ty
@clever pagoda haha hmm... maybe an underwater one? with mermaid stuff / sea creatures (and seaweed). or a farm one?
Ooh I like that underwater one tysm
how do we feel about this path?? I like it but like i don’t? It feels like it’s too much but if i take anything out it feels empty. I haven’t found any other path i like
Hii any of you have ideas on how to improve this? I still haven't figured out if I should follow a fairycore style or cottage core one
@cinder birch I find it a bit too cluttered, I'd suggest using a simpler one.
@static pasture your terraforming looks very nice! are you planning to keep the waterfall wall? I don't mind it but I kinda feel like it doesn't quite match the other areas
what's the diff between fairycore and cottagecore
? i'm never quite sure
@atomic quest fairycore uses more celeste items and mush lamps.... other than that I'm not sure there is one? 😂
@stuck trail that's part of another area, it just happens to be next to the nature area I'm working on rn
whew mush lamps
@static pasture ooh gotcha! (:
@stuck trail do you have any ideas on how to decorate the upper part? I honestly don't know what else to put there
@woven drift #furniture-trade
Yeah I’d say fairy core attempts to be more magical. Whilst cottage-core is aiming to be natural and quaint
@versed wadi yup, basically
But there is similarities to both, so there’s a lot of crossover
@static pasture here's some ideas for decoration (more cottagecore-y but some could work for fairycore)
@stuck trail tysm!!
can someone show me how they’ve decorated their beaches? I’ve run out of inspiration🥺
Does anyone have any ideas for stalls and their placements for a farmers market
@coral carbon try searching "in:island-layouts has:image beach" (:
@stuck trail i feel u on tht. alrdy burnt out on terraforming all i do is d i v e now
@kindred glade food/baked goods/desserts, fortune teller, garden/plant, honey, fruit, antique/curio, newspaper stand, dispensary, fishing, surf/scuba
Has anyone got any ideas I can do to decorate my space themed island in running out of ideas
I got bored of doing sunbathing beaches, so my east and west beaches became a market and a dig site.
@coral carbon some bits of my beach. pretty standard really, surf shop, cafe, outdoor cinema
Looking for garden inspo
@atomic quest looks amazing, tysm👏🏻
Hi! does anyone have any inspo for a flower stand? 🙂
Any ideas on improving this area?
What could i put here, its right in the shopping district? (i already have a marketplace and a coffee house)
@formal python you cna do a fountain with chairs and benches
@lean oar A stall..... Music.... more fun stuff 😁
@formal python A park... fountain yeah... flowers.... statue view....picnic area... a Terraformed fountain...
Has anyone got any ideas I can do to decorate my space themed island in running out of ideas
Lol ty
Can anyone send pictures of outside their shops looking for inspo
@acoustic widget
@lean oar customized tire toys for a pop of color
@versed wadi so pretty 😍
What should I put here lol
My nooks area doesn’t photograph very well. It’s got a busking area outside, and a small picnic area nearby
Busking area is such a good idea
How do you all make your hybrid breeding areas look nice? Inspo pictures are muchly appreciated! 😊🌸
Help! What should i put here? Or should i even put anything there?
The busking area outside
@acoustic widget my shops are down a shopping strip in a city so it's quite bare aside from palm trees and some lily of the valley on the other side of the road 😅
@versed wadi your island is amazing

@plain forge looks so good!
@plain forge whenever you post I always have to do a double take bc your grass looks so good against your paths that I think it's a custom grass pattern at first 😭
Sorry more recent one. Added the rug and the dog bed.
@versed wadi i love how the rug looks, really adds to it
Ummm
@versed wadi ah the rug makes it look awesome
I wish the villagers could play instruments while sitting, I would absolutely tip Lolly for playing the piano 🥺
I've been trying to add water to the lower area but without Luck, any Idea? The Idea of the area is to make a flea market and I was hesitatinh whether to start downstairs or only upstairs and add some water downstairs
@stuck trail omg ty 🥰 it's usually cus I always end up taking pics of my island when it's raining so the lighting is extra kind to the grass!
When I clean up this area, what should I turn it into?
@acoustic widget ty! 
@versed wadi you got her to sit on the stool! not beside it, not in front of it but actually on it :0
@lime basin I would say probably make it into a picnic or flower park?
What I mean by a flower park is like a area full of different flowers
@atomic quest it’s the only time it has ever happened
@spiral adder Thanks, I’ll make the flower garden.
Hence taking a photo to mark the occasion
@lime basin Anytime! ^^
yah haha xD
any ideas for a gothic island?
@deft haven I can’t copy anything from the video description in the YouTube phone app but all the codes are listed in the video description here https://youtu.be/Du0Gv3clk-A

@lime basin sorry for the ping but I think you should also put a foutain in the middle of the flower garden!
Got the mermaid furniture 🧜♀️ and wanted to decorate outside, not inside. This is how it turned out ☺️ Audie’s and Sherb’s houses are perfect blue color for it 🙂

Hiya if anybody has a beekeeping area could you post a picture of it for inspo thank you!
How to you get your villager to be in such perfect position hahaha
@spiral adder There is a certain place I already have planned to put a fountain. Maybe I can put a lot of just plant-like items there.
thank you @spiral adder !!

thank you @spiral adder !!
@woven drift Your welcome!
would grave stones work with a gothic theme?
would grave stones work with a gothic theme?
@vapid heath I would say yes
yeah i think so
What’s a good way to light up this little library area?
@vapid heath I think a graveyard would be a prime spot for a gothic island. Lots of iron and stone fence too haha
What’s a good way to light up this little library area?
@ocean igloo If you think it is, then of course! It's your island after all!
Yeah that’s true!
@ocean igloo maybe a floor lamp or a folding floor lamp?
Oooo I like that
For this place, should I make it a basketball court, or a mushroom area when I’m able to actually get mushroom items.
Does anyone have a woodsy theme that I can get inspo at
Can anyone give me advice on my shops? I kind of like the able’s sisters but I feel it’s too crowded. And I don’t really like my nook’s. Any ideas would be appreciated!
@woven drift I run through my beekeeping area in this vid
i think your able looks fine!
@lime basin I like the mushroom area idea better since it appears to be adjacent to your campsite, but you could always make it a basketball court for now until mush season arrives (:
Can anyone give me advice on my shops? I kind of like the able’s sisters but I feel it’s too crowded. And I don’t really like my nook’s. Any ideas would be appreciated!
@warm temple Both is good! You shouldn't change anything really!
@stuck trail That’s pretty smart, thanks!
@spiral adder do you think i should keep the wood at nooks or change it to stone?
@versed wadi tysm for sharing!
@warm temple sorry for the late reply I was watching something but the wood? It's fits in alright!
Hey! I'm making a yard for Nana (the pink normal monkey) on my island and I have no idea what flowers to use. Should I use bushes as well?
@lusty vortex pink and white flowers would be nice, I almost think pink lilies / white mums? but you can play with the combos a bit. and I always recommend using shrubs when you have the option 👀 azaleas would be nice
Work in progress, making a butterfly pond
Work in progress, making a butterfly pond
@azure crag I really like it even if it's in progress!
Hey guys! So I made these waterfalls, I tried to make a nice view for a spa I’m building later in the front. Anything I could add?

@native latch hmmm, May put some land on the water and put in iron tables of and chairs and put some flowers around it if you like! Like a tiny cute dining area
Thank you🥰 I just have to move it one tile up to make it symmetrical with the rest of my island hahaha and add some flowers and benches @spiral adder
hello! i need help figuring out how in this image the pool and the slide are customized. It doesnt let me customize them when i try to
@native latch in terms of terraforming, you could add dots of land in the waterfall pools to place items / flowers / shrubs on
Thank you🥰 I just have to move it one tile up to make it symmetrical with the rest of my island hahaha and add some flowers and benches @spiral adder
@azure crag Sure! You can use teh idea too! I hope the pond comes out great! Good luck!
Please @ me ideas
@lusty vortex something like this?
Anything I can put behind these to make them look like buildings?
@spiral adder oh ye! I was planning to do so on the third layer where the waterfall is coming from. But maybe I’ll add a seating area ^^
My airport is so close to my plaza, I may leave it like this for a while hahaha
@atomic quest I love it! I'm definately going to do something along the lines of pink and white
@light timber there's some ideas listed in the pins if you haven't seen those ones already (:
@spiral adder oh ye! I was planning to do so on the third layer where the waterfall is coming from. But maybe I’ll add a seating area ^^
@native latch That's nice! Including ceative!
@light timber there's some ideas listed in the pins if you haven't seen those ones already (:
@bratty.alani#4253 kk ty
how do i customize the pool? i cant seem to
Hello, does anyone here has a similar design for the ground? pls pn me
@stuck trail :00 thats also great! Ty
@tight patio it's not customized - there's different variations. you'll need to buy from another user. same with the slides
how do i customize the pool? i cant seem to
@tight patio Oh! You can get customizing kits from Tom Nook or buy them! If you can't it's probably an item you can't customize
@tight patio it's not customized - there's different variations. you'll need to buy from another user. same with the slides
@stuck trail Thanks! i didnt know that.
@rough brook you'll have better luck asking in #custom-design-help🎨
Is there a fast and easy way to prevent visitors jumping off the dock into blocked off areas of my island? It’s such a hassle to block off entire beaches and even then I’m not sure how effective that’ll be
no
It's not much
My stargazing area is coming along nicely I think
@royal valley you would literally need to block off every tile on your beach that boarders the ocean with furniture... it would be effective but it wouldn't be pleasant, I feel like we shouldn't be able to jump off the airport dock 😑
Damn that kinda sucks, I had the perfect layout to control traffic especially when hosting for a busy island
same here, and i used to afk for couple of hours while ppl coming in and out selling turnips. can't do that anymore :<
It honestly feels like an oversight to me, maybe it will be changed in the future 
I’m thinking of making a café here
Yeah hopefully but when has Nintendo ever fixed or added something AC players wanted
Cough cough froggy chair, more storage, better Isabelle, these are basic things
should i scatter my villager houses or do it like a neighborhood??
It's my experience that scattering them is something a lot of people regret later
@ember ermine wow that's the opposite of my experience haha that's really funny!
Lol it really depends on the person
i scatter some and line up some based on open island space
Scattering them gives your island a more organic feeling, to be sure.
Does anyone have cool Orchard inspo pics?
Some people like having them all together, and some like them spread out so they can have their own sortve area. I have a neighborhood set up, and everyone has their own little yard area set up
Also part of my problem was yard space, I felt a neighborhood layout constrained how creative I could get with the villagers' yards
I have two seperate neighborhoods with a shopping district in the middle
thanks!
@tame badge try searching "in:island-layouts has:image orchard"
ty!
i like mines scattered
my campsite
I have a pretty large sized area behind my museum. I was thinking of doing a library/book shop. Has anybody else done something like this?

@median estuary I really how you incorporated the waterfall, it's very subtle!
Does anybody have a 5 star island I can tour? Just looking for inspiration 😊
Anyone have any rustic peninsula ideas with fishing items or fishing area inspiration.☺️
should i scatter my villager houses or do it like a neighborhood??
@finite venture I personally like to have my villagers scattered. I’ve had both and it takes up a lot of space when they’re in one area. Also I’ve seen my villagers walking around and exploring more around the island when they are scattered because they have to actually walk around to get to the other villagers houses. Here’s my map
@stuck trail ty! I'm not too crazy about those elaborate waterfalls . Lol
@woven drift try #690093605821480980 #mysterybags-and-yardsales

What are some peninsula ideas beside a lighthouse xD
@half otter try searching "in: island-layouts has: image peninsula"
@half otter my campsite is there lol but i am blessed with the circle peninsula 
i'm late but my villagers are scattered and i love it, i used to have a neighborhood and really disliked it after i started getting a feel for the kind of island i wanted
The best part is getting to create large yards for villagers!

saaaame
hi, guys, I'm starting to play with the thought of "landscaping" my island with the Island designer. However, I'm wondering if it is smart to remove the pond where my river starts, at a cliff two levels up from the ground. I have two more ponds though, but idk if it has an impact on the spawning of certain fish and so on. Any thoughts?
@topaz scarab i think this is more of a question for #game-help-questions❓. but no, it wont affect the fish spawns (other than less space for fish to spawn)
mini lavender field i created today 
A little spam but I was never a fan of 'neighborhoods' most villager yards were contained by square boxes/fences and to me that just doesn't look right??
@topaz scarab at this time, I don't think there are any pond fish that spawn only on the 3rd level. that's not to say more won't be added in the future. You will want to make sure you have a 3rd level river however for certain salmon/trout species
@topaz scarab also, the circle of water where the river starts isnt considered a pond, its still considered a river
Scattering you’re villagers means you can have a large amount of variation in how you set out their houses, you’re not limited to yards and can build them whole biomes/landscapes
aha, ok that's good to know @stuck trail
Can a villagers house be placed on the beach?
@topaz scarab yes
@topaz scarab yes, but please head to #game-help-questions❓ for future questions that arent layout related (e.g feedback, inspiration, etc.)
ok, thanks
what do i build on this small patch of land (not interested in removing the pond)
if anyone has an overgrown jungle-y themed island pls send pics
u could put a picnic area
@dire hamlet there are some area ideas in the pins, you could see if any of those spark your interest (:
Does anyone have a woodsy theme that I can get inspo at
And also I finished my entrance so how should I start it leading up to things(if that makes sense like how should I start
@eternal geode
One of my waterfall areas my friend edited for me
What my island will look like. I used happy designer home website thingy to make this. It’s gonna look epic soon.
Now I'm freaking insecure 'bout my non scattered neighborhood:(
But I don't think that I could scatter them properly and aesthetically pleasing with this layout..
@hasty oracle don't be!! it's pure personal preference, I'm sure yours looks great. (: fwiw I had a non-scattered layout for a long time and absolutely loved it, I just started to run out of room in their yards!
@hasty oracle it looks beautiful, neat but looks like they have a good amount of space to themselves
I wouldn't worry about your neighborhood if I were you ^^
I just finished construction of a Beach Bar/Music Venue on my north-west shore that I call "Pavé's." How does it look?
Oki, thanks! I wanted to give everyone a yard, and it's slowly happening, but you are right with less space :3
can i see anyone entrance 🥺. i just tore mine down because i don’t like it :(
@tame robin very nice :o
Hey thanks y'all, you cheered me up!!!
@vague sail if you search "in:island-layouts has:image entrance" you'll find lots of inspiration for entrances of many different styles and sizes (:
oh thank you !
Can someone help me out with plaza n villager homes area? Where i want the residential area is right next to my plaza but I want it elevated
@fervent flax are you doing a structured neighborhood ie all the villager homes in one area?
Idk if I should put my shops in the middle/front of my house or the back..I have then in the back rn but Ive seen lots of cool designs with them in the front.
I need some inspiration of hidden areas, making a cottage core island. I already have a hidden library.
@wild turret AAAAAAAAA FIX IT
;)
Should I add anything to my mini bamboo area?
@lime basin how about a deer scare? a couple more rocks (like garden rocks) might be nice too (:
Ya, I thought of adding more rocks.
Does anyone have a statue garden that they would be willing to share pics of? 😊 looking for inspiration
@ember ermine fix what? The layout is pretty sloppy since I did it on my phone but on my actual island it’s more cleaner.
@fervent flax Heres my neighborhood that somewhat close to the Residential Services and is elvated
I was joking mostly, regarding the bottom right house being out of place @wild turret
Anyone have some ideas on what to put on this plot of land? It’s really small as the rest of the beach is accounted for and I’m just not sure what to put here. I had a painting station but it just didn’t look right...
OHHH lol 
surf shop, beach resturant, picnic area, greenhouse area
🌴 😀
Idk if I should put my shops in the middle/front of my house or the back..I have then in the back rn but Ive seen lots of cool designs with them in the front.
@woven drift my personal house is somewhat in the middle/ to the side of the island. I like the way it’s placed now but it’s up how you want to decorate it and whatnot
@jade crescent maybe a little picnic area?
ur island is so pretty already wow
Does anyone have a statue garden that they would be willing to share pics of? 😊 looking for inspiration
@plucky jackal my garden is quite large so you can’t really see all the statues. But it’s in the corners of each flower bed
Does anyone have any good inspo for a campsite in a trashy abandoned city style? I was thinking maybe going skid row with it?
My statue garden 🙂
the tube top
And also I finished my entrance so how should I start it leading up to things(if that makes sense like how should I start
@odd isle I (sadly) do not have any inspo but I just wanted to say the skid row idea seems really unique and I think you should roll with it 👀
to go with the earlier convo of "scatter or neighborhood?" you can always keep a couple houses together
i kept Kiki and Rudy close by because their houses match! https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1279868636656631808
Rudy and Kiki's beachside forest. #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch https://t.co/YLLtnTMPNy
Any ideas for this area? I'm not solid on it
@stuck trail mbad i had to go eat but yeah i want all the homes in one area
this discord makes me so insecure abt my island ahaha
and my map, the area in the video above is the bottom right
Just invest 1000+ hours on ur island,, you'll get there
@kind crown keep in mind that a lot of us post pretty areas... and the rest of our island is unfinished lol. it takes a lot of time and we don't share the bad parts, but believe me there are bad parts on most of our islands!
@fervent flax here are some simple, structured neighborhood layouts to get you thinking. most of them involve at least one change in elevation, and a couple (like 2 / 4) could be started on the second level
love going on and seeing all of my offers i submitted for my airport hq on nookazon declined
I’m so hAPPY
Congrats!
Think my islands haunted guys
Anyone have any ideas on how to make the moon shape? Its seeming to be a little tricky.😅 Any advice is appreciated!😊
@lusty lava this is a little different than the one in your example, but should be a good starting place
@stuck trail thank you so much!☺️
@lusty lava All terraforming is pixel art, so if you have trouble terraforming look up pixel art as refrence or use a pixel art maker to create a plan
Fr tho plz help idk what do
@wispy estuary are you trying to make it into a playground? if so you can search "in:island-layouts has:image playground" to find some playgrounds that inspire you
can the resident services be in line with the airport walkway ? i just reset :((
Please someone tell me what to do in this little place 🤧🤧
Idk if I want a play ground even,, I just feel like the peninsula is rlly akward
@woven drift I think I've seen it once, it's super rare though 
mines always one square off i-
really not in a mood to start my next project and i dont wanna wait for the people from nookazon to answer back ugh
@wispy estuary in that case check the pins for a list of ideas you could do in that area, or search "in:island-layouts has:image peninsula" to see what others have done with theirs (:
Thnx
can people send their town maps? ❤️
thanku!!
Mine looks so ugly now 😹
i just want it all to be in line 😌
@wispy estuary i have a tiny peninsula too, i haven't really figured out what to do with mine yet, but i think a little painting area would be cute! painting set, a design or a Redd painting placed on an easel, a little stool...
@fierce hornet trust me most of the people in this chat heard me complain when i was making it lmao
can people send their town maps? ❤️
@woven drift
@scenic blaze ooooo
ok omg i love that
@woven drift
Mine is a mess lol
Heres my map
woah the rivers are awesome
The river looks like a frog
How do you guys make so many rivers pretty, I put one and I think it looks terrible
my map 🙂
hey guys, can yall send me orchard layouts? i’m making mine and i have no idea where to start 😢
im honestly giving up on trying to get it perfect
@fervent flax there's a good starter guide to terraforming in the pins, it covers how to make rivers look natural
tyy
@elder silo it's not the most efficient orchard but eyyy
@wispy estuary sooo pretty ty!
meanwhile today and yesterday i finally started working on my house
just need the white lighthouse and ill have all the stuff for my hq
Here’s my finished cafe area in front of my residents services!
come one 6 offers someone needs to see it
In the spirit of all the conventions that are canceled, I made my own small convention hall + maid cafe
Any suggested tweeks?
@wispy tiger really cute! love the mix of natural and urban!
@wispy tiger mixed color customizations of the iron garden set?? my mind is blown
@scenic blaze kept that under wraps!
@trail cliff i think you've got a good start here! i'd suggest customizing things to match your flooring a bit more, like the natural garden set can be customized, and so can those iron tables and the bookcases 🙂
@stuck trail @scenic blaze thank you so much!!! Really appreciate all of the nice comments!!
@versed wadi it's tough to take photos of lol, it's a real narrow pathway. i'll have to do a video once it's done
Stone arches... need I remind you...
don't expose my arch addiction like this!
There’s no concealing it really
this is my @scenic blaze tribute area 🥰
lmaao
funny you say that bc that same area inspired me to use pear trees again
I’d build a @scenic blaze tribute area... but she took all my stone.
@scenic blaze AAAA!!! love it <333
gibbs is bullying me and may is being nice to me. TYPICAL
My @scenic blaze tribute
i'm overwhelmed with love for all of u
My work garden area 🌸
I just tried to rebuild my campsite from memory.. I think it’s way off.
@fierce hornet i looooove all the colors!
Thank you 🤧
all i want is to be part of the island layouts clique !! i’ve been hospitalized for covid the past week. on the bright side, gives me a lot of time to work on my island lol;; maybe i’ll take some photos when i get a chance
@agile girder omg BEST OF LUCK recovering!!
@agile girder oh no, feel better!!!
@agile girder get well soon
could I maybe get some feedback on my flower color scheme? I'm going with warmer tones throughout the main areas of my island, and I right now I'm working with this palette and it feels a little flat
I want to use roses for sure since they're native to my island but other than that I'm open to suggestions
thanks guys!! feelin better already 😎
@stuck trail i think its nice, but idk if the yellow cosmo really fits in?
decided to change the stones in my entrance, i think it looks a bit better now 
@stuck trail i have warm tone flowers too, the orange windflower is a good one too!
@stuck trail looks really nice! Maybe add green mums too?
@stuck trail i like this color scheme!! i use a lot of these colors in parts of my island. if you want to add a different tone that doesn't take over, go with green mums!
@stuck trail Im not a fan of the red rose with the others
What about a warmer pink tone too
@stuck trail try to use some orange hyacinths - so theres are atleast 4 different kinds instead of 2 different cosmo flowers
I.... actually love the mum idea since I use green mums in my campsite, so that will tie it in to the rest! Might play with the idea of replacing some of the cosmos with windflowers as well 
don't feel the need to limit yourself to just a couple flowers either, i try to represent all flower types
👆
adding some white flowers with them look rlly nice too, like tulips, mums, and hyacinths
@scenic blaze JUST BEAUTIFUL 
Thank you for the suggestions everyone!! I have lots of experimenting to do now haha
Looking for a cute moon/zodiac kind of island lay out if anyone has any ideas!😊
Does anyone have codes for parking spaces like these?!
@lusty lava do you mean the whole island is zodiac or like an area?
hey does anyone know about ways to make a secret entrance type thing to an area? are there any examples anyone has? ❤️
@lusty lava This is what i have on my beaches, its constellations made of star clocks and nova lights
Hi can yall give me tips for my beachtown
@worldly ginkgo looking for while island, but that design is pretty!

@woven drift heres my island layout i wouldnt mind sending more pics with areas you find interesting
@woven drift make an outdoor cafe or diner
@scenic blaze thank you so much!!!!! this is lovely
@woven drift what kind of ideas do you need?
i’m trying to figure out what to do with my tower of pisa, does anyone have a picture of what they did with it? it feels so out of place on my island lmao
@icy flint ok thanks designing a layout is hard lol. @fallen oracle I was thinking about making something like that I just dont know where to put the shops in my town.
can someone tell me if this looks weird or what else i should put in the middle pls
@twilit lintel Im trying to find ideas for how my Island houses should be and my shops...I had, I had them in the back but I kinda hate it xP
hey does anyone know about ways to make a secret entrance type thing to an area? are there any examples anyone has? ❤️
@left rose this is my entrance that leads to julians mystical cove and behind his house is the secret beach
@cloud wigeon what about a fountain?
@granite lagoon jess i was kinda stumped w it too but i just put it next too trees to make to make it look distant lol
whats the command for seeing building sizes?
@left rose that’s what i was originally going to put but it doesn’t really match my island’s aesthetic yknow
@twilit lintel that looks so cool thank you!
@woven drift do you want your villagers houses in one area or separate? I put my shops up front and then most of villagers are separated. They each have a their own job on the island for the most part

@twilit lintel wow thats looks super cool, Im thinking of having my animal in one area I just dont ant it to look to clumped if u know what I mean
@grave lagoon for my zen garden i added a panda teddy bear lol
@icy flint lol ok haha
@grave lagoon it looks so good !!! wow
thoughts and opinions on my enterance ?
@woven drift thats okay if you want it together. I used to have them in one area. And for me, it was not so great because i couldn’t decorate their yard properly because I already had my layout set. But since separating my villagers, I’ve noticed that they walk around and explore the different parts of the island a lot more since they are visiting their neighbors. So I prefer keeping them separated now
Farm finally done! 99% ^^
@grave lagoon beautiful as always
@grave lagoon I’ve been thinking of making a cacao farm too... Coco’s cacao lol
why do nookazon people spend 2 hours to get to your island
Does anyone have any cottagecore museum inspo??
@scenic blaze haha that would be so good, do it!
🤩 haha
I feel like I’m missing something anyone have any ideas?
@icy flint id go to #general or #acnh-chat⛱️ for general convo like that!
Anyone has good museum entrance inspo? 
@jade crescent it’s super cute so far!! I’d plant some weeds or place some seaweed!
just an update - I added much more flower variety to my palette and I'm soo much happier with how things are starting to look already (': ty all again
@slender tulip Its more Faerycore than it is cottage core but heres my museum entrance
@scenic blaze ah that’s a good idea thank you!!
Oooooo love the color scheme @stuck trail!! Looking great!
@storm bluff i tried for 2 days straight whenever my timer lets me type again i copy and paste what i want and still nothing
@whole bane the front is a small fossil display, and the back is an art gallery maze
@soft plaza thank you so much! Very pretty
@icy flint because they can. also spamming questions isnt good

I’m a stone arch addict lol I can’t stop putting them everywhere
Any tips on making a nature based, cottage core type island? What kind of areas could I include?
Any tips to make my entrance less bland?
@strange latch pottery area!
thats an expensive addiction @scenic blaze 
I know
I do all my trades in stacks of stone instead of normal things like bells and NMT
@minor cloak bushes and decoy ducks!
@minor cloak I love love love the blue. I’d plant more flowers and blue hydrangeas along the cliff edges. If you have nova light or star clock diy, you could add those in blue as well!
how did you get the stars on the tree? @minor cloak
any ideas on what i can use to decorate zucker's yard? anyone have pics of their yard?
@karmic current I’m not sure if i can talk about that here. Thanks for help guys!
@karmic current hacked trees 😳
@minor cloak put an arch
YOU HACKED IT
Thoughts on Dom’s front yard?
I bought off someone who did. And what kind of arch you think? @hallow lance
@minor cloak try a shell arch
@minor cloak you could add some star fragments on top of the cliffs to add like lights
You’re right!
@minor cloak maybe the frozen arch would match all the glowing blue elements at your entrance
@minor cloak maybe add some floor lights for extra pizzazz
Definitely missing something, what should I add?
Anyone have a zen spa?
I maybe more flowers on the hill but I don't know much
@thorn fjord honestly whenever im missing something i just put decoy ducks, firewood, or barrels
@thorn fjord logs or stumps
@worldly ginkgo decoy ducks 🤩

Thanks everyone! I need to get a pagoda and @karmic current it’s okay!
what? theres an 8 incline limit? noooo
What Do you guys think would look best here? A white public bench or a green iron garden bench?
@quiet lodge i can give you one
@icy flint 8 inclines and 8 bridges per island
@wispy tiger green
anyone have a oriental japanese style island? i need some ideas for the plaza area, and the museum.
@wispy tiger I don’t see the public benches used enough, I think it would be cute there!
Can anyone come to my island and like redesign it with me cuz idk what to do with it and it’s pretty trash
well this is going to be a big problem now
@icy flint my museum takes 2 of each and it's such an investment but I have no better ideas 
@limber ginkgo my shopping district is taking 4 inclines and my museum also has two
@scenic blaze @woven drift thanks so much!!
I need some Nooks shop layout ideas(:
Can anyone come to my island and like redesign it with me cuz idk what to do with it and it’s pretty trash:p
@golden ingot it's a bit hard to redesign an island with someone else on it since you cant terraform or place objects while your airport is open
@storm bluff well yea but I mean like ideas
@golden ingot there’s a list of ideas that’s pinned that you can use to add to your island
I finally found a home for those toy bugs from the bug event
I feel like I'm in an anime
@golden ingot designing your island is pretty much gonna be testing things out from beginning to end, its ultimately up to you whether you are happy with the layout or not
@limber ginkgo the tent is so cute bruh
@rain glen I love that so much!!! It looks amazing
I made a tiny tiki cafe
@blazing flax its not finished tho it’s my entrance and shopping district
@limber ginkgo the tent is so cute bruh
@cursive tangle It was worth making another profile for it! Though I can't get the pocket upgrades or nook miles hairstyles on that character 😦
@woven drift Love it!!!
ty I only finished that part, im gonna make a street market next to it :3
@golden ingot it’s all trial and error really. No one can build for you or place anything down. We can only give suggestions on what to add or take away in areas that you’ve done so far really.
What server should I ask if anyone has an item?
@wispy tiger #furniture-trade
Also island layout the part in red is what’s finished or at least I’m done terraforming it
How many inclines can you have on one island?
@wispy tiger #furniture-trade
@wispy tiger #furniture-trade #cataloging
@blazing flax 8 inclines and 8 bridges
Finished dobie's garden 🥺
Hey guys, quick question. What bridge do you think would go best with arched tile paths? Looking for suggestions
@cursive tangle the little villager islands look great!
Thank you!!
@cursive tangle that layout reminds me of venice 
are the villagers trapped unless they tp 
These are the three islands I’m done decorating. Bob’s, Judy’s and Dom’s
I'm thinking one of the wooden bridges would be cool
Does anyone can give me an idea of what can i do for whitney's area?
@limber ginkgo they aren’t trapped. I see them visiting each other and being off their islands all the time. But sometimes they just chill outside their houses. (Makes it pretty easy to find them)
@woven drift what does her house look like?and like how much space is around for decorating,,
I can’t find the furniture trade server
@wispy tiger read #721542917264638002
@worldly ginkgo this is how it looks like (the picture is not mine btw)
@soft plaza thanks!
@wispy tiger #721542917264638002
@limber ginkgo time to start demolishing and restructuring then!
Which layout should I do 1 or 2? Going for this kind of look
@woven drift hm ok, what theme do you want? personally id put a white piano, some white flowers, maybe a small like flower shop? vibe
tyy thats a great idea im gonna try it 😄
@woven drift when I had her I made a mini beach next to her house with a palm tree & beach/lounge chair simce her house looks beachy
@plain forge tyy thats also a great idea 😄
@cursive tangle i love how your villagers have their own islands omg, i was thinking of doing something similar
Good morning all. I'm stumped by this new issue I'm having and was told this would be the best place to ask. I did some googling and can't seem to find any related info other than questions about where you can and can't plant trees. I built these natural cliff "pyramid" things that are primarily ledges and water falls. I built them to showcase cross breeds and Lilly of the valley flowers. Yesterday I went and dug up some pink roses to plant some blue and gold ones, and now I'm getting an error that there is no room to plant. It seems like it's a change in the recent update. I have ledges and waterfalls on one side of my island that are full of random flowers and the goal was to replace all the flowers in these locations with cross breeds eventually. Anyone else notice this issue? If this persists, I'm gonna have to re-terraform a third of my island. @ me if you have any input, even if it's a patch notes that I haven't read, especially if you know of a work-around. Thanks in advance. Super bummed that my idea is currently dead in the water.
@untold bison can you send a picture of the cliffs? Like post it to the chat so we all can see
Ah yes. The struggles of having a nearly full inventory
try digging a hole in the spots you wanna plant them and plant them using the shovel
Did that
O think it’s because the edges of the cliffs are slanted to you can’t place anything there.
I had pink roses planted there. Dug them up to plant blue.
Hmm this is weird because it looks like enough room for a flower to me
At least the square-ish cliff to the left of your character is definitely a full tile
I can even dig a hole and it will still say no space.
@untold bison try facing the cliff and plant it, it might think youre tryna plant on the slanted spot
a memorial for my cat, the lily record players play stale cupcakes
Tried that too. Literally doing circles trying to trick it and still nothing.
my town hall happens to be close to the beach/airport, so i made this my ‘market place’. any ideas on what i should fill here? 🏝🌞
Which one should I do? Going for this kind of look
@wild dagger flowers and benches and trees
@untold bison maybe build a cliff next to it, plant in the spot you want, then destroy the cliff? Idk if you have room tho
@untold bison i guess build more cliff, plant the flowers then break them back down? lmao
should i keep this bridge or change it for a stone one?
I made Dobie a little yard! Any suggestions? I’m planning to add trees but what else does this good ol wolf gramps need to perfect his home?
@woven drift i like how that looks! but its up to you, it might be different after decoration too
@untold bison if you reform it so that its square, plant, and then re-slant, it will work. it's a pain though, I don't know why that was included in the update
I thought of doing that, but the biggest issue is that it worked fine before and I certainly don't want to have to do that with the other side of my island. The entire eastern side is marsh and cliffs with flowers all over them and the plan was to replace flowers as I get them.
@cursive tangle btw do you have any pictures of how you decorated your villagers islands?
@wild dagger I would put a boardwalk area. I have a mini fountain area but also a boardwalk in front of RS
so i finished the outside of nooks but am now having trouble decorating the outside of ables! what sorts of things could i put on the stone and what could i put directly in their yard?
@left rose tyy imma keep it and when i decorate imma see if i still want that bridge!
@steel yacht a rocking chair and tiny library to add to the book stuff uwu
@left rose I have these three done
@kind grove clothing stands!
my airport hq as of rn need to wait until i can catalog some one more office desk, den chair, and 2 more computers as well as some potted plants but open for suggestions!
oh thats precious omggg
@viral breach good idea! I gave him a writing area because I read that he is a writer! Makes sense to add a rocking chair too :)
Hey guys would anyone like to help me create my island? My islands pretty plain
campsite done
@steel yacht I suggest a rocking chair and some biotopes! also display goldfish 🥺 i love him,,
@cursive tangle btw do you have any pictures of how you decorated your villagers islands?
@left rose I gave my villagers jobs lol
@shell moat the coolest islands ive seen have done a really good job at utilizing different leveled areas with cliffs and stuff
@limber ginkgo what’s the little leaf pile with the s’mores called?
@twilit lintel that’s so cute 🥺🥺🥺
@limber ginkgo what’s the little leaf pile with the s’mores called?
@cursive tangle leaf campfire, it's a fall item so I had to pick it up off nookazon
@twilit lintel thats really cool!!! i was considering something like that too. i was gonna put pietro in a carnival and then i thought itd be cool to do that for each of my villagers
my airport hq as of rn need to wait until i can catalog some one more office desk, den chair, and 2 more computers as well as some potted plants but open for suggestions!
@icy flint maybe make an actual office building with simple panels? I made an actual building for my floral shop and music store
my issue is im not set on my villagers list either..
@left rose that’s good. I need to figure out where to start!
@twilit lintel smart! Just need to find some panels then lmao
@twilit lintel thats really cool!!! i was considering something like that too. i was gonna put pietro in a carnival and then i thought itd be cool to do that for each of my villagers
@left rose yeah I prefer it this way now so that I don’t have to worry about them being in one area or having trouble with their yards. It has a set theme that correlates to their house and/or personality
@shell moat i like to look at the 5 star island tour videos, the key is to not let it make you feel bad about your own island and just let it inspire you and give you ideas for utilizing your space creatively!
@twilit lintel im just still not decided on which villagers i want to keep and which ones i want to search for
this is the last bit of my island I need to work on.. any suggestions? I was thinking of doing a half bug half fish stand for flick & cj
If anyone wants to visit my island for inspiration my code is FXS2Q, also please don’t be mean and try to hack my island I worked really hard on getting it to where it is now
@left rose I have 6/10 villagers from my villager list 😳 but idk who else I wanna get for the last 4
1 or 2?
this is the last bit of my island I need to work on.. any suggestions? I was thinking of doing a half bug half fish stand for flick & cj
@limber ginkgo AHHHH forgot image
edit: also it's between 2 cemetaries but they'll have to live with it
@visual canyon how can visitors hack you? 😰
@left rose i have 2 or 3 villagers that I need to get rid of, but I moved them to the new areas that I know will replace them eventually. Like I have stitches in my camping forest area but he’s only holding that spot until I get Erik. And I’ll eventually really decorate it until he gets there. Same thing with lucky. He’s in my Japanese spa area but eventually he’ll leave the island so I can get drago.
i have merengue but i cant decide if i actually want to keep her.. i dont want to collect certain villagers just because theyre popular but i want the ones that i actually like and want, and i cant decide if thats how i feel about merengue or not
tbh I have most of the amiibo cards and I just swap a villager when I have an idea for a cute plot. except poppy. she stays forever
@limber ginkgo town square with a fountain and like those Ironwood benches on either side with some bright flowers and little trinkets
@left rose I personally love merengue. She’s super adorable. I didn’t even know she was popular until a week after I got her by chance on a mystery island.
@worldly ginkgo oh I don’t know, I’m just kinda paranoid, sorry if I worried you though
shes super cute but im not a huge fan of the rhinos 😭 i might keep her bc i love pink and her design is really cute, but i also want coco and i want to keep marina but i dont want 3 normal villagers
I found Judy on my like 3rd Mystery island and my friends went crazy when they visited and found out I had her. I didn’t even know she was famous cause this is my first AC game
I just thought she was cute and now she’s my baby forever UwU
anyone have any oddities shop inspo or ideas?? all i got are some skeletons, a dolly, and fossils haha
One of the villagers I carded in was Ken ||but I glitched it so he would have Greta's home exterior|| and he fit perfectly by my bamboo forest
Hi i have a random question about me island layout, my resident services is so close to my airport only 6 spaces away i was wondering if anyone had any ideas of how to make it work?
My able’s storefront!! :’D tried to go for a quaint feel!!
@urban venture oh shoot i love that im gonna need some of those qr codes
@wicked bridge if you have space maybe you could add a little of the antique furniture line? like the clock or the chair. I guess they aren't oddities but they feel like they'd fit
@serene yoke I’m sending a video of my entrance so yea it’ll send soon
@urban venture oh shoot i love that im gonna need some of those qr codes
@left rose the stair ones I found in the path codes channel!!! The striped dress is from teddygleecham on IG and the other two dresses are custom gowns my friends made for me!!
tysm!
@serene yoke
@glacial warren is this your island? I think your current layout is really cute, but change is always fun so if you want to mess with it, go for it!
Also it’s not done yet I still have to decorate on the left side
@urban venture the pops of blue are too good 
@left rose the stair ones I found in the path codes channel!!! The striped dress is from teddygleecham on IG and the other two dresses are custom gowns my friends made for me!!
@urban venture thanks so much!!!
that’s so pretty! mines super close i’ll send a pic, i’m thinking about putting all the shops etc around that area?
@urban venture the pops of blue are too good :kermitapproves:
@scenic blaze my fave color TT O TT ♡ I don’t ever wanna leave June/July cause of the hydrangeas!!
Would some one like to come over for a tour and maybe help me with some pointers terraforming, and design ideas?
Before and after the suggestions! What do y’all think
@urban venture I have a blueberry farm so I feel you on that 😭😭😭😭
For those of you with your resident services close to your airport, can you please share a pic of what you did? Also, ideas for 2 southern ocean mouth openings? I need help! lol Thanks 🙂
@serene yoke oh my those houses
@serene yoke i had the same problem but in the other side if you want ill send pictures of it or i could even open my gates so you can come and visit 😄
@serene yoke on the left you could like block it off and have a statue there with some flowers and then a path leading up to the town square on the right with like flowers and trees and maybe a water feature with waterfalls
LOOOOOOL yeah it’s a right mess my brain stopped working half way through
@serene yoke omg our starter maps are the same. I hid that terrible RS with cliffs lol
Can you reset entire island without losing everything?
thank you so much for the suggestions!
I know the quality is bad twitter ruined the image 
@tribal jetty sadly no
@serene yoke current map plus tweet that shows my entrance in-game https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1279425241349935111?s=21
@urban venture I have a blueberry farm so I feel you on that 😭😭😭😭
@scenic blaze that sounds so pretty!! Do u have pics?! (˃̶᷄‧̫ ˂̶᷅๑ )
My map is a mess because all of my paths are custom design so they don't show up which is dumb
@woven drift cute picnic area. It’s such a cute idea I also have one in front of my Nooks Cranny
thank you! going to try and terraform tonight
any dodo codes i can visit
@urban venture I do! I’ve got four in this tweet and some random ones sprinkled in my feed somewhere https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1266743047699619842?s=21

@atomic harness I don’t know how close is close. But here’s my two southern river mouths map. And here’s my entrance. It’s simple but works fine
@soft plaza where?
My map is a mess because all of my paths are custom design so they don't show up which is dumb
@Rose.#2401 depending on what custom design you used, you can put down a regular path from the game and the over lay it with your custom path so that it shows up on the map
@woven drift cute picnic area. It’s such a cute idea I also have one in front of my Nooks Cranny
@cursive tangle Ty! Mine isn't fully done yet since I still need to craft the picnic stuff but yeahh
@sturdy forge read #721542917264638002 to see the island visit channels
@woven drift depending on what custom design you used, you can put down a regular path from the game and the over lay it with your custom path so that it shows up on the map
@twilit lintel I would do that, but the issue is that the path I use doesn't work on top of actual paths
@urban venture I do! I’ve got four in this tweet and some random ones sprinkled in my feed somewhere https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1266743047699619842?s=21
@scenic blaze they do look so much like blue berries bunched like this!!😍
omg that's so creative why did i never think of that
A small retreat close to my resident area day + night 💫
there once was a time where I was proud of my island..but not anymore
there once was a time where I was proud of my island..but not anymore
@Rose.#2401 this is me when I watch island tours 😢
I drew out my dream island and was wondering if anyone can help me with constructing the river “centre piece”
aaaa this is like a rough sketch!
I've actually decided to keep the basic island layout that I started out with because I cba to flatten it & I'm fine with the layout you orginially get so
@serene yoke current map plus tweet that shows my entrance in-game https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1279425241349935111?s=21
@scenic blaze have ever considered doing tours cause this is really nice 😳
@craggy bluff do you just need help figuring out how to make the crescent? if so here's a diagram - might need to adjust based on how large you're making it
there are a bunch of tutorials for unique lake shapes
@weak sage I’m not open for tours right now bc I’m under renovations and there’s a lot of garbage on my island rn 🤡 but thank you so much!
Ignore the area below the museum it's a wip 
@stuck trail Tysm!! it’s that and I’m trying to put another small river around it so it’s like doubled up??? but every time I do it looks so dumb ahah goD it do be stressin me
I just started playing like a week ago. do you like it?
What do you guys think so far?
I just started playing like a week ago. do you like it?
@primal venture yes because you have aurora
Lol she’s my favorite villager :))))
I had her early on too, she's so sweet
Mad that the camera glitch was patched, but here’s a little area I’ve been working on 👀
Yeah
Mad that the camera glitch was patched, but here’s a little area I’ve been working on 👀
@tardy lily Same I used it all the damn time, now I gotta use Twitter to upload
why do they always patch the good glitches 
Can anyone share some grand entrance ideas?
I know, I loved the cam glitch. They should have an option to change it to show/not show cam controls
Island layout kinda trash tho
too much angles
it makes it look weird cuz the rivers look natural but not the paths
Idk what to add here
This I the layout so far what do you guys think?
you should try to make them a bit more curvy
@green smelt how about a lunar rover since you have the moon surface there? or lunar lander
Thanks imma see if I have the diy
@green smelt wow what’s the code for the ground?
is there a way to like.. get someone to design my island for me? i kinda just wanna commission someone to help me think of a island terraforming layout because i'm not satisfied with anything i can think of on my own. it's really frustrating me..
not here
I got it off google I’ll try find it now
@warped onyx nookazon has a section for that service, try that site
alright nail salon done time to do nooks cranny next
so i flattened my island out and tore my entrance i’m deciding on a new theme still lol i’m thinking i should make it sanrio based :))! but i don’t know if i should 
@green smelt wow what’s the code for the ground?
@bitter inlet
I'm going to retake this because I don't have 4 of these villagers anymore
LF ideas for Judy’s yard 😊 please lmk any!
im excited to do my nooks cranny because i've never done a little island beforoe
@woven drift ooo whatcha planning
@scenic blaze i looked into it and it kinda just looks like you just go to someones island and just look around. i just want someone to help me build my island or help me think of a design, not just.. look at their island and just try to visually memorize it.
@limber ginkgo I like Raymond’s and Dobie’s so much
@silent sluice yaay i was so happy with mine this morning im glad to share haha
Basically I wanna have it on a little island with cliffs behind it, waterfalls, some trees, and flowers all over
@limber ginkgo I like Raymond’s and Dobie’s so much
@clever bloom those are two I don't have anymore 😭
@worldly ginkgo cute! Ty (:
I don't know whether or not I wanna do the white/pink hyacinth combo or go for mums/cosmos since I haven't used those as much
@limber ginkgo lol what are the chances
but anyway im gonna begin doing the basic part of my little NC island
I only use white and yellow mums mainly
@limber ginkgo lol what are the chances
@clever bloom they live on forever in my memorial
That’s so cute you put them around campfire together
Voted off the island
i wanna do a graveyard for all the villagers that have moved out but it'd probably be too dark for my cutesy island
If i had a graveyard for all my moved out villagers, half my island would be filled with depression
Took me like all day just to make half of my island a second level.
i wanna do a graveyard for all the villagers that have moved out but it'd probably be too dark for my cutesy island
@woven drift I wanted to do that but yeah it felt way too dark haha.
but im definitely doing a grave for crapberra because i hate her and she's one of my starters and she's still here and she's ugly so i cant wait to dance around her grave and spit on it 🥰
Hahaha my friend did that and have like 20 graveyard in a row with their pics im scared
Man now I regret not getting my ugly villagers photos
