@wooden fiber Depends on what kind of space your looking to fill up! I usually just put some random objects that fit the general vibe of my Island/the area I'm building and arrange them so they look pretty. Good fillers for me has been trees and bushes. Also small objects like buckets, little chairs, Coffee tables etc. You can also fill empty looking space with designs on the ground C:

@wooden fiber I've seen a lot of people do like a custom design of like a blanket on the floor with like pillows and cushions on the floor if you want a cozy look 😮
@woven verge @limpid totem Thanks, guys! I'll definitely keep those suggestions in mind when planning out my island!
Any ideas or critiques about how I could fill this part more? I’ve tried to figure out what else to put here but i’m slowly losing ideas
Did someone organize their rivers kind of like canals/with bridges and has a pic of their map? (with their river mouths on the east and south
@limpid totem Maybe a leaf pile?
i’m really not sure what i want to do here just something with a natural/beachy vibe - any ideas??
@limpid totem Maybe a leaf pile?
@ocean raft I thought about it but i'm out of young bamboo so i can't craft any T^T
@limpid totem Honestly, I would ditch the cobble path, and find a stepping stone type custom design. That's what I do to make it feel a bit more sacred or zen. I would also add some more bamboo
@limpid totem what about a bamboo basket?
@limpid totem It looks pretty nice already! You could add the new seasonal item (forgot it's name lol) from the nook store or maybe add a chair or a bucket C:
@limpid totem Honestly, I would ditch the cobble path, and find a stepping stone type custom design. That's what I do to make it feel a bit more sacred or zen. I would also add some more bamboo
@wooden fiber I thought about that too, but I'm running out of custom design slots so I have no idea if I can do it T^T. Will definitely note down the more bamboo tho!
@thick zinc What about if you brought that waterfall in the backdown, and make a cute little pond, where your villagers can fish and have a picnic..?
Thanks @limpid totem gonna take a look at the vid!
@thick zinc you could make a little coconut grove
@woven verge OH YES THAT'S A GOOD IDEA! Ideas have been noted! Tysm ^^
@thick zinc Maybe a little beach market/fish market or a surf shack? c:
@wooden fiber I thought about that too, but I'm running out of custom design slots so I have no idea if I can do it T^T. Will definitely note down the more bamboo tho!
@limpid totem Use one that you have the code written down, you can easily switch them out, or use one that you haven't used in a while
@thick zinc If you wanna you can also try to plant down some coconut trees for a more island vibe along with @woven verge 's suggestions
@woven verge @limber crater @wooden fiber Thanks for the ideas!!!
Not finished but any advice appreciated for my entrance 🙃
I made my island completely flat and this is going to be my layout. Please give some critism btw the plaza sign on the square that is at the bottom right is actually like a korea town
@ornate spindle I really like it! Very nature vibe I see. In the second picture, I think you might need to add something on that top layer, which could be trees and bushes even. Just make it feel busy.
Yah it’s either hedges fence or bushes behind the trees I wish there was a tall one square plant like bamboo -_-
If I had the ability to make more lush stuff like lamps they’d be there too
I made my island completely flat and this is going to be my layout. Please give some critism btw the plaza sign on the square that is at the bottom right is actually like a korea town
@gloomy summit Um, I would. try to add SOME cliffs, to make it more lively, if it's flat then I PERSONALLY think it could be a bit too flat aka boring, I like it though!
@ornate spindle I agree with @wooden fiber I think more trees would make it look nice!
you can't have 5 star rating of ur island is flat doe
@bitter valve Really?
I think so, yes
@limpid totem more tree where?
@gloomy summit Um, I would. try to add SOME cliffs, to make it more lively, if it's flat then I PERSONALLY think it could be a bit too flat aka boring, I like it though!
@wooden fiber Not like that, made it flat to terraform from ground up, and thank you! ❤️
@ornate spindle Looks super super cute already! I would add some more furniture that fit the vibe! The mush furniture set would fit in nicely or even some celeste stuff!
I don’t have any Celeste stuff except the bath and rocking horse. Pisces lamp would be amazing for in the water 😭
@gloomy summit no problem! @woven verge I think the moon chair COULD look nice or the nova star light
I don’t have nova star light recipe either sigh or moon chair
do you have star clock recipe?
Nope
@wooden fiber Oh definatly! Maybe even the aries rockingchair C:
@ornate spindle Are you into time traveling? If not you can always wait, leave it as it is, and keep on adding, it takes a while to get what you want in acnh!
My campsite if anyone needs ideas! 🙂 https://youtu.be/2oj2hELMfYU

do you have star clock recipe?
@woven drift i dont have the recipe, but can make you some for free if you need any
I just meant or reunelle
I don’t really mind. I don’t know enough about the consequences of it though and I wanted to go back to wedding season and bug catching contest 😖
@ornate spindle Also, idk why, but I think a mailbox would also fit in there. Maybe also a birdbath lol
Just some random item ideas haha
how do u not have the recipe but also offer to make it
@neon glen I think he means like, he knows how to make it, but doesn't have another one to give away
o ok
@ornate spindle I realized how small your entrance was so I take it back maybe no trees LOLOL
😂
lol
If I showed you where my residential services was. You would be amazed 🤢 I had to move the entire area of waterfalls to the right and make the bridge diagonal to fit
@ornate spindle Show us! 😄
How's this?
Could anyone with like a cottage or fairycore style give some ideas with how they did their museum?
@jaunty orbit I definitely like it and admire how you have all the rocks in the same place, I will never do that because I am just too lazy
My res services is extremely close to the airport as well so I just made the entire front into a boardwalk
My theme is super specific sigh
@woven drift that looks really nice I reset my game since my residential services was also super close to my airport but that looks awesome
@woven drift what a great idea!!
@exotic stump everyone I asked said don’t restart as you’ll never be assed to do stuff again 😂 @wooden fiber my island is called lothlórien if that means anything to you 🧐
hi can someone help me find the dimensions of these yards, i don’t have my glasses on so it’s really hard to see, thanks ^^
Looks like 7x9?
@left linden I think the entrance side is 10, but I can't see the sides
@left linden they’re all the same dimension I think 7x11
@ornate spindle the game works fine after restarting but the main thing I realized was how boring it was redoing everything since I’m pretty impatient lol
@left linden their so good looking you’re going to make me wish I went with a more city like island
thanks guys ^^ (also they aren’t my yards lolol)
Oooh well they look nice, I’ve just started moving my villagers houses apart. I love living close to all of them but I also wanna give them unique housing
does anyone have any inspiration for like a farm area like crops?
Freyas house 🤷🏼♀️
Hi guys I'm looking for a nice layout for a star gazing area

@faint temple Mine is an island on the very top of my island, hope this kinda helps C:
It’s the only house done 😂 my island looks like a flower nuke went off @woven drift can I get the code for that lattice plant panel backdrop?
Sorry I don’t have it. It was just a YouTube island tour I was watching weeks ago that I used as farming inspiration
Do you have link for the video @woven drift ?
Is it this top one? @ornate spindle
@woven verge looks exactly like I would do it, just need those lamps :D ty
Sorry I don’t
@faint temple No Problem! C:

OMG @deft glen 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
i finally did something with my beach areas today, i still have space so im open to suggestions!
@woven drift woahhhh that has to be my most favorite Japanese themed island yet
Yeah, it's pretty amazing
@noble glade I think you should add some nova star lights, it would look really pretty at night < 3
Videos like that make me realise how bad I am LOL
Imma copy their trees though so 🤷🏼♀️ never realised how close and full you could make stuff
Can someone come to my island and help me build it
@wooden fiber noted! tysm!
After 2 weeks of trial, error, youtubing, and planning, I think I finally got a villager house layout! Now I gotta figure out where that "leads" to because I ended up having it dump the visitor on the back of the island 😊
Stargazing area
any ideas for this area going up to/surrounding my house?
I turned my Celeste items into a night club with dj
Path leading to my clifftop reading area and cafe 🌿
@gentle cove I have a list of stuff of areas to put in empty spots on your Island, I could DM it to you C:
@woven verge that would be amazing!!
@woven verge that would be amazing!!
@gentle cove There are also some amazing ideas in the pinned post!
LF : Ideas for a flat entrance
@silk forge Heres my flat entrance
hey guys i am looking for beach rocks designs i want to put music instruments in rocks . do anyone have any picture
I made some changes to Punchy and Octavian’s homes!
I have the layout of my island 😫 does anyone have any tips
anyone have inspo for beach decoration
@night osprey I did on my old island I had to dig for the picture 😂
@glad crater you could do a smoothie bar, a surf shop with the surfboards and the swim stuff
dyk how you could do thtat with the limited amt of space
@vernal oxide ty for the picture
@glad crater my smoothie bar is huge but you could always condense it. As for the surfshop I used surfboards and put 3 on each side of a stall. Some people decorate the stall with a laptop or a type writer to look like a cash register

@glad crater you could also type in the top right search bar “in:island-layouts has: image: beach” and there are pictures others have posted related to their beach!
epic, tysm for the help
My wip bar/lounge on the beach.
does anyone have a tropical island i can tour? :)
Had to test out a new preset and Pashmina was the only one up still 🥰
I'm working on giving each of my villagers their own space, just finished Tank's zen garden area!
-+
does this look okay? golden hour so everything has a tint of orange
what should i put next to my house? i was thinking Celeste items but im broke so idk if i can get my hands on them lol
what should i put next to my house? i was thinking Celeste items but im broke so idk if i can get my hands on them lol
@gentle cove if you have mats i can craft the items for you
What do you all think? Not too sure about the entrance? Would love some constructive criticism about all of it! 😊🍣🍜
I really want to turn this area next to my entrance into a music + seating area but I have no idea how to execute it— any ideas?
how can i make this look better? the waters width is 6 because it’s even on the map. i need it to go across the water without looking bad (:
What should I do with the blank space in front of my shop?
Decided to make it like this
But idk what i should do behind it the bushes or fences
Oh and anyone ideas for more decoration or other deco?
@plucky zenith i made little marketplace in front you could do something like that or an outside café
Ty! I’ll try that.
@dim knoll I love the wood stakes!
suggestions for a proper flow of my entrance? that bridge leads to The Resident services (its very close to my entrance!
@midnight jasper I think maybe instruments on the grass and maybe a microphone on the sand and then seating in the same as well!
@primal tartan I think it just looks weird because of your RS placement. But it would be a pain to move everything else on the left side
Anyone have any ideas on how I can put a fountain in front of a bridge like this but have some pretty pathing/landscaping around the fountain as well? At first I made like a lil outline around the fountain but when I put the bridge, it wasn’t even :/ what I have now kind of works but I can’t dig holes around the fountain and it’s also uneven
@midnight jasper I think maybe instruments on the grass and maybe a microphone on the sand and then seating in the same as well!
@primal tartan I think it just looks weird because of your RS placement. But it would be a pain to move everything else on the left side
@vernal oxide it’s even, but the problem is how wide the bridge can go. if i only brought it out by 1 on either side it would look uneven. i’ll just go with both sides brought out by 1
@vernal oxide ooo i like that-- thanks so much ! ^^
@primal tartan I wouldn’t worry too much about how it looks on the map because maps never really look as good as the island does but okay!
Really want help?! What do you all think? Not too sure about the entrance? not 100% happy with all of it! Would love some constructive criticism and any ideas of how to improve! 😊🍜🍣
@nova quest i love the entrance and the bar!! what item did you use for the bar?
Hi. I am looking for patterns for a football ground. Can somebody help me?
@manic sigil thanks den desk!
@nova quest i really like it!! only thing id remove are the simple panels on 1st photo to give it more openness some tiki lights to light up the area if it helps?
Hi. I am looking for patterns for a football ground. Can somebody help me?
@indigo beacon thanks! Will give that a go!
@tired crescent use #custom-design-help🎨
i actually really like the simple panels there but its worth a try
The only area I never get disappointed with
Ok
front part of my island so far! any suggestions please? (still in work in progress!!)
Maybe put an outdoor restaurant in that huge flower patch my the able sisters!
@indigo beacon
Can someone help me with my town hall area? i can’t figure out good terra forming. I would pay, ofc.
open to more ideas!! suggestions! and @bitter robin - good idea what kind of furniture im limited space at the front cause of the resident services so close!
ello! Is there any creative idea's on where to place/decorate nooks and ables? I want a natural/cottage theme and I've got some inspo but I wanted to know if there's any other ideas?
Possibly the iron chair set that you craft. They are pretty small. Maybe put a table and chairs on each side of that @indigo beacon
@topaz mountain my island isn’t cottage core or anything lol but I put my shops on top of each other and gave ables a sewing area
Thats really cute!
That's cute!
I made mine like a shopping row. I put the booths in between my stores as a flower. And a fruit store. I used custom patterns
oooh good idea!!
I also put a gumball machine
Because, why not?
can someone help me w my map and island just the entrance rn i can pay judy or nmt 🥺
@signal flicker do you need entrance inspo? Where is your RS located?
ty i just don’t like how it’s not centered w the airport
@signal flicker your RS isn’t close which is good. And that’s fine honestly! A lot of people play around with cliffs to force you in a direction or you can set up other things until the RS
Mine is like that and for some reason i dont like it, i wanted a brige to curve onto a road to go to my rs. Not a straight road
@signal flicker My RS is a direct line from the airport and honestly it's very difficult to work with!
I know right! I totally agree. It triggers me-
This is my map currently (still changing some things around) @signal flicker and I made a walkway from my entrance to the shops and then from there to the RS
Your island looks sick. Damn.
the RS is so far away
I'm jealous
Same
My island is SUCH a work in progress. This is an older picture. Currently I’m working on a bear area in the top right for stitches, Judy and pekoe. As well as the middle area for Ankha when I switch her for Elmer
My RS is Six Tiles Off of Airport lol
Thats rough :/
I like where mine is, like 10 tiles away I think
My island looks so weird rn.
Starting my garden
I restarted over and over until I got the map I want since I used a website to design what I wanted and then still changed my island design 😂
My island is like halfway done
that’s sick
My bookstore so far
I use custom design paths so they don’t show up ack
I wanted to see how much terraforming I could fit into a small space 🥺🐢
I'm so sad that custom design paths don't show 😦
does anyone have a cute outdoor cafe I can take inspo from 🥺
@terse vale I don’t have a bookstore per say. But maybe my library will help
My bookstore is going to have a coffee shop in it
@storm bear this might get changed around but this is my outdoor cafe for Marshal!
@terse vale and the one picture has a stall with coffee 😂
@mint badge I actually found inspo for it through this chat! 😂😭
Anyone got any rock gardens based around stonehenge model I could see for inspiration please?
@mint badge The set up for that is cute!! I would definitely say it doesn’t hurt to add more bookshelves and color the two things on the left to match the dark colors of the others as well!
guys i'm trying to redo my whole layout but I'm comletely blocked. I want a full island - no empty spot. I'm stuck there and don't know how to plan it all
I got lazy
@prime harbor it’s honestly all trial and error. There’s a list of ideas in the pinned section if you need some ideas on what to add to your island.
@mint badge a HUGE mood
Should i change something in there ?
@topaz mountain you can get then to show if you put a path then put the custom over the top :)
@wind grove I know! it just doesn't look the same!
@prime harbor where are all your buildings?
I do projects and get lazy..... ill change one day
I'm replanning all but this is what I hve righe now ! @ashen hull
@prime harbor wow! looks awesome!
Oof how do I get to a 4 star island I’m at 3 rn
Need an opinion on these yards... something feels odd. I feel like they could be a lot more cuter! :/

OMG not sure if anyone was here yesterday when I was constantly trying to place that zen bridge and it wouldn’t let me & I was asking for help?? BUT the patch today that came out fixed it & of course I placed the bridge yesterday & paid for it to have it ready today
@latent verge maybe flowers? theres an account on IG that has like, flower palletes if you want me to send it
I'd love to check it out! Tysm!
Uh it probably needs a wider with if it won’t let you do place the bridge @royal spruce
@latent verge they feel sorta..disjointed? Maybe try color coordinating more with their houses and add some flowers

@misty orbit It looks stunning!!
I'm just in love with this section. and the sunset it amazing!
@ripe remnant tysm!

anyone got inspo?
I think I managed to make a good entrance for my close resident services
@vestal bison this channel is filled with inspo! are you looking for anything specific?
lo; treegoesmad
just anythting cottagecore or naturistic really
I need opinions on my entrance i want it to look like a waiting room
@vestal bison if you search "in:island-layouts has:image" you can browse all the images posted in this server. you can also include any keywords to search specific things
@mint badge the items you order at the nook machine in your resident services can help with decorating a waiting room! the vending machines and public benches in particular are good to use
R.I.P Deirdre
could i see some pics of entrances that have some water and bridges?
what else could i add/change to my fishing area
help my rs is in the middle of my map to the right and i feel like its too far away from my entrance, and theres not enough space in between my rs' right side to my beach 😩
Hey can somebody help me with my campsite
@thorny kettle mine doesn’t have a bridge but maybe it’ll help!
@thick zinc the fishing racks!
@austere nimbus sounds a lot like my map!! haha i built cliffs all around my RS~
@storm bluff ooh yes my entrance is extremely multilayered, can you send pictures or elaborate?
@placid birch some people make a throw away account for the tent you have before getting your house
@austere nimbus what is it exactly that you need help on? your entrance or your RS?
@storm bluff connecting my entrance to rs and the little area inbetween rs' left and the beach
@lime jasper ive been trying to find some on nookazon
Added some items. Any thought s? What should I use the remaining space for?
Oh how about you place like some fishing rods there?@thick zinc
Do any of you guys have a little Music area on their island ? If so, can you show me for some inspo?
@lime jasper ohh yeah! i’ll do that 🙂
;)@thick zinc
@austere nimbus i built a sort of “walkway” with cliffs that leads up to resident services. included my map too if that helps~
@storm bluff oml ur island is absolutely beautiful 
@austere nimbus aaahh thank you haha! also dont limit yourself to leading up to Resident services, you can always lead somewhere else instead~
can anyone help me decide if if should move my house or if i should spread out my villager houses so they can have cute little front yards (where i am on the map)
@storm bluff
tysm
@storm bluff This just inspired me bigtime! Your island is gorgeous!
Restaurant entrance.. with or without simple panels? 😊
@nova quest I like it with them. Love the beach restaurant idea!
@haughty tangle okay thanks!
Yea with
@nova quest I say with them! Gives it more of a closed in space vibe
@mint badge @woven verge okay thanks!
can I see how you guys separated your villager houses? I'm stuck on how to set mine up. Idk whether to do a straight line, separated by trees, cliffs or river.
@blazing basin my RS has a music area!
Envy my rec looks similar to yours
@mint badge haha really?
😂 lol mhmm
@tired river I have them in a neighborhood separed by a fence
Y’all are too good at this like what
ikr, idk how many times I have restarted my area
@tired river mine are in their own areas or with someone else
thanks! do you guys have any advice on how you start planning your island? I like my ideas I just don't know where to start.
Thoughts? I need help on what to put in front of the statues
@tired river i tried using the websites in the pinned section to plan it but then I tore it all down anyway and worked section by section to make it all come together how I wanted
I have the same qr code for the ground
yeah that's what I'm currently doing, moving houses to the front and tearing down cliffs. Any opinion on having a lot of houses on the first level and then have the next levels for some houses and separating the houses.
@mint badge omg it is the same set up sorta 😂😂 I supportttttt!
I hate my island 😭
Just revamped the areas around Merry and Rosie's homes 
I love this area
LF: someone to help me redesign a few areas on my island.
FT: Nmts, Bells, or Moon diy
Still my beach has open spaces
@mint badge for the longest I wore that same dress 😂

@shrewd condor I’m still working on mine but here’s Zucker’s ! I’m giving my villagers their own areas haha
@vernal oxide that is cute! Are your houses spread out??
recreation of someones layout, got me really inspired
I did this on stitches house.
@xXRip_Brian_GriffinXx#6724
@shrewd condor yeah! I do have some grouped together. So Diana and Raymond are with my library on the top left. Marshal has his cafe and merengue her diner/bakery in the bottom left. My cubs (pekoe, stitches and Judy) are being grouped in the top right. Ankha (will be getting her in place of Elmer) has her own area on the middleish of my map. And then idk where to put Tia yet. Think I might put her by the library as a tea shop
my island is so lame
coming here makes me want to delete the game 😂
tbh im about to terraform a mountain into my flatland of an island rn and i feel like im back in minecraft lmao
@rose dune hahaha coming here used to make me feel the same way. I got my own switch to start over since I was using my brothers
little coffee / library area
i have zero creativity @vernal oxide i copy work other people do 😅
@rose dune tbh same 😂 I sometimes have random ideas like grouping my bears up
Working on a plant shop. It looks way too symmetrical rn. Any tips?
@neat turtle i think it looks perfect 😮
I did a photo shoot with my castle ^.^
What fencing type do y'all recommend for a playground?
@blissful socket thanks 😭
It’s beautiful josh
What should I do to improve my entrance?
work in progress 
What fencing type do y'all recommend for a playground?
@crisp fractal i think iron fencing looks really nice because its blue!
@tranquil carbon maybe lanterns but other then thats great
Ooo yeah that would look cool thanks
I have some if you need
perhaps a couple of bushes too
Looking a lil plain. Should I change the color of the swings or make the playground bigger or add something like a tree or object ? Feels like something is missing.
here’s my shops at nighttime 🙂
Can swing be changed white
I like the idea of boxes by the nooks 😭 never thought of that
Mine is still in the works
this is mine but I think yours looks soo much better haha @neat turtle 
I changed my museum area. I will add more statues... anything else??
Anyone have any campsite layouts?
@thick zinc didnt know the cardboard bed had an alternative design, definetly gonna use your idea 
@weak totem this is mine
Ty guys sm!
@weak totem this used to be mine!
Just finished my island - mushroom / enchanted forest theme looking for any tips to improve happy to host a tour
@vernal oxide I love all the bright colors!
@blissful socket aww it looks so colorful!! I’ll try to make it more colorful. Thank you!
anyone got ideas for small areas?
@woeful bloom hii i cant get on right now, but if youll still be around in 45ish minutes id love to come see your town!! if not no worries too
anyone know what to do in this small area?
Hey, anyone with fairy core, cottage core, spooky islands?
hey does anyone have a cottagecore, fairy core, or dark academia island me and my friend can tour for inspo!!!
@vestal bison theres a list of ideas in the pinned section!
@errant mirage maybe a place to show off one of the statues? With flowers too!
anyone got ideas for small areas?
@vestal bison if you want to use it solely for decoration, dont worry about it being passable
@hot adder ooo thank you for the idea!
So close 😪
Any secret trails? 😮
Any advice? Even to just cover it up?
LF the corner of the white box sofa FT 2 NMT
@bronze nimbus #furniture-trade
@frank linden you can always try hiding that spot with a piece of tall furniture? there's really no way yo truly hide it
@jolly raft hidden trail leading to my pretty things walkway to the museum. Does that count as hidden?
Yeah I was just thinking of what furniture I could tryyy to hide it @storm bluff as an attempt
@frank linden alternatively you can treat the deck design as a platform that just goes around the campsite, like move the stairs to the left and right and have the front of the campsite just grass?
Oh that could be a better idea
@storm bluff is the deliverer of all good ideas. 🥰
I need help to fill this space up. Any ideas? Also I don’t have much on my island at the moment
@silent totem there’s a huge list of ideas in the pinned section!
Oh shoot sorry and thank you
Wanted to show Bluebears house again
idk i feel like my entrance isn’t one collective thing i feel like everything has its own thing.. thoughts?
idk i feel like my entrance isn’t one collective thing i feel like everything has its own thing.. thoughts?
@shrewd axle i like it! maybe flowers to fill in space?
@clear lantern i was thinking that too
Has anyone an idea of what i could place in these little spots? I wanted to plant trees but there wasn’t enough space..
@oblique jolt bushes or a small lamp might be nice
@oblique jolt you could always add a shrub! The little bushes are so cute
I’m having troubleeee 😓😓 @storm bluff
@oblique jolt flower or shrub!
@jolly raft i have a trail leading to campsite. Does it count? Lol
@oblique jolt hyacinth lamp, a little table with something on top of it, a shrub, a street lamp... lots of cute things.
@frank linden can you extend the left side one more space so it's the same width as the right side? also maybe move the stairs one space back so its aligned with the campsite entrance. that might make it look a little more even
@oblique jolt have you heard of trading?
Got this done last night, still have some decorating to do and flowers to plant
@oblique jolt try a trade channel. It's a DIY. 😊
@manic sigil sure i did
@oblique jolt then trade for one!
Might change the fossil since the head is literally too high no matter what angle 😂😂
Would love to see what people have been creating with the mermaid furniture. I would like something outside if anyone has any ideas?
Ohhh okay @storm bluff lets seee
Figured I'd share my beachside Mexican Paleteria (Ice Cream Shop) ☺
Would love to see what people have been creating with the mermaid furniture. I would like something outside if anyone has any ideas?
@acoustic widget I did Audie's yard with shell & mermaid stuff!
@storm bluff like this?
@limber ginkgo that looks awesome I swear all my villagers have ugly houses 😂
Making a haunted house! Any ideas of what I can place on the left and right side of the door to hide the grass?
Can someone come over and tell me what they think of my park? I've just "finished" it but I think it could possibly use to extra detail/decor.
@versed belfry bugs in boxes, simple panel with a creepy vine design,
ill try the bugs!
@versed belfry if that doesn't work out, you could also use a little bit of hedge on either side!
what flowers go well w the blue mushlamps?
Does anyone have any general tips when it comes to terraforming islands and coming up with new layout ideas?
@thorny kettle you could make any flower look good with them tbh, white roses or hyacinth would be a nice neutral or you could go for blue windflowers or pansies. or mix all those together haha (:
@versed belfry i use tall garden rocks at my house
@thorny kettle you could make any flower look good with them tbh, white roses or hyacinth would be a nice neutral or you could go for blue windflowers or pansies. or mix all those together haha (:
@stuck trail yes im gonna do that then!
@scenic blaze @stuck trail @weary vale thanks ill see what I can cook up
@thorny kettle you could make any flower look good with them tbh, white roses or hyacinth would be a nice neutral or you could go for blue windflowers or pansies. or mix all those together haha (:
@stuck trail what about green mums?
@frank linden yeah! you can make it even wider depending on what furniture youre putting there. what do you think? (sorry for the late reply)
@silver pumice there's a good beginners guide to terraforming in the pins, it has some really helpful tips (:
@thorny kettle green mums are good anywhere imo
I'd say try 'em out and see if you like it!
diy rocks ftw!
@versed belfry if you have a western style stone that might look good like near a tree!
@storm bear i actually got those placed out just out of frame!
My nooks cranny is crippled what should I change about it ☹️😔
i just came up with another great idea but this is gonna cost me over 200 nmt - from naruto the hokage wall with there faces ik i cant design their faces but make a cliff and then add the rock head statue on the cliff
hey does anyone have any tips and examples for an entrance design..I don't really know what to do
@woven drift this is my entrance! In between the top and bottom is a fountain with benches!
@woven drift this is my entrance
finished my museum area!!
ohh that's lovely
here's my entrance sending this since envy's town hall is far away and mine is only 7 blocks
@woven drift mine 🙂
mine isnt finished yet 😭
I did this today.. still needs work. any advice?
love all of those entrances..the annoying part is that my resident services is so close by
any cottagecore entrances
@woven drift how many blocks away Is it?
@woven drift honestly a lot of people use cliffs and trees to block it or deviate you a different way to make it seem farther!
about 7 I think. and a bit to the left
@woven drift If you scroll up a bit, Nyack's entrance is also 7 blocks and you can't even tell it from the way it's designed (:
I think I'm going to try to reference @thorn fjord entrance
Nooks Cranny and Able Sisters
yes I'm going to try to fuse these two together somehow
@woven drift my entrance is I think 13 blocks away from my resident services
Okay so there are so many channels and rules that I don't know where to properly ask this so I took my best guess. Does anyone have any suggestions on pathways for making a heavily japanese themed village? Sure I could use dark dirt or wood pathways but I feel like there's gotta be something better than that
I don't like where my residents center is
Try #custom-design-help🎨 @broken birch
@terse vale no one does LOL
This is my island
I’m actually okay with resident services being in front
I set up a nice plaza area 
There should be pumpkin autumn decorations and recipes. I’m surprised there aren’t
Should I start a new island or continue the one I have
Continue!! I believe in you
^^
@terse vale How far in are you? I usually recommend working with what you have bc if you restart you won't have any bells/your villagers/DIYs and you'll have to unlock terraforming and everything all over again. There are many creative solutions for a close resident services, keep looking and trying new things and eventually you'll come to find something you like (:
Which side looks better?
this is my entrance with the res serv building at front 
@carmine kelp so cute!❤️
@woven drift what are those spider things? models?
here’s a tiny walkthrough, I am still working on my marketplace areas but qq
Is it fine to post pictures with star trees in it here?
@woven drift what are those spider things? models?
@jade fiber Nope, spider crabs
i think so i've seen a couple of pics with star trees
Ok ty
yall, should i move all my buildings to the beach and do the whole thing where i start from scratch? i got 12mil recently so i'm feeling ambitious lol
yes cupid in my opinion its better to move things and start over rather than completely get a new island
Does anyone have their campsite on a cliff? Can I see pictures? 🤗
yeah, i've always wanted to do it, plus i'm not really liking how my island is rn at all
@young basin Thats actually what I did! It’s soooo much easier !
Graveyard to remember the villagers who left my island
i was thinking of doing that but only if i have space left over lmao
any ideas for a area by a river
any cottage core island entrances ideas?
@south wraith check the pinned messages to get ideas for a cottagecore theme
What do you guys think of my newly created area for my boy lucky to live?
ty
@young basin the first picture is what my island used to look like, then I moved all my buildings to my beach and my map now looks like the second picture (still changing some things of course)
yeah my before and my map rn at completely different but i didn't move evrything on the beach i just started to move things and started wokring on a small part at a time
Flora's area
woahh!! looks so cool!! my map is almost completely flat, i want to have more cliffs for sure
this is my current pic rn of my map (1/2)
@young basin that is EXACTLY how I was. Most of my island was simple. Super simple. And then I added cliffs and decorated them. And I’m actually going though my island section by section this time to decorate and I’m falling in love with it more and more
I hate how there's limited inclines and bridges id so so much cool stuff if we had more, also fingers crossed for bridges to connect cliffs
mines really simple too :( i have areas i like for sure but the rest is so bland
It's actually good to leave some area untouched because there will be updates like new houses
SEE! maple knows whats up you guys said i shouldn't leave some space for a new house
@young basin I worked section by section and that’s the best advice! For instance the first two pictures are my old shops. And the last picture is my newest version of my shops (I also added mom’s items to Ables)
Dream suite should be in a few updates and it will need some space
Someone with a cool island I can visit?
Heyy! I just made this cafe near my resident services and close to the airport. What do you guys think? Should I change/add something? 
I’m currently tearing down all my cliffs so I can start making my new island. Are there any benefits to having the houses in the front and buildings in the back part of islands
@safe pelican looks real nice I'd add something in the empty space, Maybe another table
@safe pelican u missed 1 lamp near the bench :0
@vernal oxide looks amazing! i will for sure be doing that
@tired river personally no benefit but it depends if its for a theme or if you want it to be closer to the town hall for quicker access to your storage
Anyone know a good YouTube video or channel that I can pretty much copy their island exactly because I’m the most in creative person you can imagine
my new favorite entrance! what do you guys think??
Anyone have pictures of their houses being in a straight line or in their own little areas. I’m torn between the two
does anyone have any good layouts/designs for golden rose gardens? im pretty unhappy with where ive put mine :/
@turbid gate haha I know I ordered it so I will get it tmr 
@faint sigil tagbacktv usually has some good videos on his channel!
@faint sigil its best to watch vids or see pics for inspo so you can do it your own way and like it since you made it and thought of your own personal task
@glad pilot I was thinking about that too but wouldn’t it look too crowded?
@faint sigil Chase Crossing , has many island visits from time to time
Yeah I’ll try, currently just flattened my island for the second time because I hated it! 🙈 would love to make an island with one big island in the middle and little rivers going to other islands
with chase its either a 2 hour vid of his own island or a tour lol
@sudden sleet I kind of stuck them in all different places actually. So currently I have a few since I stopped growing so many. But I have them around my lighthouse and entrance. I misread your message, sorry it’s not a garden 😂
@safe pelican I personally think it would lol quite cute and cozy, maybe with some plants in
Does anyone have pictures of their houses on the first level, I’m considering having the majority on the first level and little raised areas
Is anyone here open to helping design an island?
@tired river I’m working on an area that has some on the ground and one above for my bear area.
I think he means the little house when we first touched the game :0
Haha oops 😂
no i think envys right 💕
@finite plover there is a list of ideas of decorations in the pinned section!
ty!
@tired river do you mean like the picture I posted? Or do you mean something else?
Just finished fixing my drive-in theater 🥰
@vernal oxide yeah I meant just the general layout of houses. I’m deciding between having rivers seperating them or just them in a straight line
@tired river personally I think it’s better to spread them out more to give them their own place depending on their personality, their house design, etc. or even what your theme is if you have one
I’m kind of going small town that’s is some what woodsy. My issue is that terraforming idea i have is really hard to plan out
@tired river here is mine 2 levels 5 on each.
Aww that looks so cute @gloomy patrol
Has anyone done a cliff diving area
@deep spear in the top right search bar type in “in:island-layouts has: image: diving” and there’s some pictures there!
Yeah I was thinking about having walls behind the resident service which leads you to a path that has the different houses in it. Planning is just hard lmao
Thank you @lilac lintel
Does anyone have their home on a hill? Im looking for some inspiration
Can anyone show me their museum layout/entrance ???
@thin wedge from top to bottom is walking up to my museum and up each stair case I have a bench with flowers, shrubs and more dinos!
Stitches is in my genetic counseling office. 🥺🎀
Can someone draw my island
@dry acorn what that design u used for the end credits
@vernal oxide very nice, thank you !!
@woven drift use #daisy-nookling-ads
Wrong channel @woven drift try #daisy-nookling-ads
https://bobacupcake.itch.io/island-planner
btw idk if y'all have talked about this app already but it's free and online based. No trees or flowers unfortunately but even so it's a great app thats really easy to use and lets you build to see how things will look in AC! Only 1 fence, bridge and incline type but it's got all paths, water and cliff builders, all buildings placable etc- it really helps imo.
I struggle being able to visualise well, so this helps me be able to see what something will look like without spending a TON of time in ac.
Which do you think is better for my entrance area?
I'm thinking of moving Cashmere and Dobie's retirement home a little bit lower since I think I gave them a lot of space to live in.
Do you guys think that I should move em for more space?
can someone help me come up with some residential ideas?
what can i do with a tiny area by a river?
Put a toolbox and\ cooler for a little fishing area
Anyone know what I can do with my entrance? It's just so close to the plaza and idk what to do with it.
any ideas for my tropical theme entrance?? i need something for this empty area, had a fountain but it just took so much space
Hmmmm what more could i add
@chrome fjord maybe snack/soda machines?
Oo good idea
@woven drift it’s 4x4!
Can I visit someone’s islands for ideas 🥰
Where is island visit I don't see it
That’s what I was asking
@terse vale @woven drift go to #721542917264638002 and react to the first post, then youll get access to all the trade channels including island visits
Okay my peninsula is really small but I wanted to create a diving area. Does the sand look weird how it is? I can’t make it like a square area, should I get rid of it altogether? Thank you for the help 🙂
@modern wigeon i would just make the sand path two blocks high to line up with the stairs and leave the outer parts as grass that you can decorate~
@storm bluff thank you great idea!!
@modern wigeon this was what i meant if you got confused 🙂
@woven drift Maybe put a lil park or picnic area?
does anybody have inspiration pictures for a rock garden ?
@woven drift maybe put a house there? looks like you have inclines leading up to it so i imagine you should put something there of some significance/something that you want or need easy access to
@modern wigeon this was what i meant if you got confused 🙂
@storm bluff Thank you!! I'm doing exactly that now 🙂
my town hall is only 12 spaces away from my airport 😭 does anyone have and entrance inspo?
@woven drift Np, glad I could help
Is this a good start? I’m doubting my feel for aesthetics 😭 I’m not confused but it’s just a lot harder than i thought
@dry acorn what that design u used for the end credits
@neat veldt I'm pretty sure it was this one:
I've got a lot of empty space on my island, does anyone have references of cafe areas or other little shops? @glacial wagon it looks great!!
Does anybody have an urban/city themed island which I may visit? (:
@karmic dirge a lot of people use 2nd and 3rd tier cliffs to block their resident services from view and to redirect people away from the RS when they enter the airport. is that something that you think fits your island?
i need MAJOR help on my island. i hate the way that it looks so much and i’m seriously considering restarting bc of it. the little floating island area in the bottom center is something i want to remove bc it doesn’t look good, but idk what to do w all the empty space. i wanna include more terraforming but i need tips or advice please and thank you!!
@karmic dirge Yes!! Mine was only like 10 spaces long what I did was make a little plaza with a fountain and flowers that only went 10 long and 15 across.
@fallen tulip show an example of an open space
@tall echo no way your island is cute
it’s j so empty and i have no clue what to do to make it less boring looking.
Well that's huge af
@tall echo but it’s still cute the way it is
lidl just brought a smile to my face
thank you! i’m j browsing for ideas on how to incorporate terraforming to make my island seem less spread out and empty, yk?
Anyone have any ideas to help me create a little "dating area" on my island? Idk what furniture I should use for it 😅
@icy flint that's my purpose 👍
@tall echo Turn the little ponds into more rounded spaces, add some rivers and maybe put up some cliffs for waterfalls? Rivers would give it more depth
someone help! in the middle where the water splits in 2, i’m having trouble with the placement of the bridges. i need the water split to be symmetrical and i want the bridges to be symmetrical too. i’ve done it one to the left. and idk if there even is a middle and idk how to find it
@harsh wing not lid lol and its a European store and i haven't been back in poland in forever
yeah. i’m so bad w rivers, i tried reforming one and it turned out awful
@tall echo I would recommend watching some youtube tours or finding inspiration for terraforming that you like. it will be easier to know how you want to terraform an area as well once you have an idea for what you want to put there. I think you have a great base map, don't restart! (restarting isn't going to make things feel any less empty)
I’m having trouble deciding what to do with the front of my able store
@cobalt zenith oo u could use the rose bed and some garden lanterns
@ornate meadow I did a sewing area which is super cute
thank you guys! i’m going to try and incorporate more waterfalls and cliffs like you mentioned, maybe some more connected floating islands w rivers in the center?
made a small recreational area/park in my villagers’ neighborhood!
That could work well! But what sort of furniture set could I use for a table, chairs and other decorative items? The theme of my island is like a natural forest, if that is any help 😅
i'd like to change my name from nyack to nyack the terraforming god with these vids 1/2
2/2
Umm..
is this good so far? also ignore the bad quality
how do you guys get such great looking maps 😭 my entire island was supposed to be symmetrical but it’s just messy and ugly
How do u record on the switch
you capture the vid and post it on twitter
Forgot this one
@spark plover look good
Oops wrong pic
Ahem
Heres what i did
https://twitter.com/storybymori/status/1252260596122296322?s=21 does anyone know what the organizer shelves on the left is called?
The current entrance to my bear area. The start to my babies grouped up area 🥺 home of Judy, Stitches, and Pekoe!
Damn my pic just got buried by yall😔
Smh my head
Stitches do be vibing 🥺
what can i do with a small area by a river
it be like that kang, no one priased my terraforming
@vague idol it's a white tool shelf (:
it be like that kang, no one priased my terraforming
@icy flint oof
@buoyant forum fishing spot
which one's better lol (grass under bonfire vs no grass)
It's funny because I had the exact same idea for what you did there. I'm putting toys and playground stuff around stitches' house when I've made my little neighborhood!
any ideas of furniture i can use to decorate sherb's yard?
Grass under bonfire @little swift
@little swift without since grass under it doesn't make sense
wjat can i do next to river (i have a fishing spot)
hey guys! i’ve had this area built like this since i unlocked terraforming. any ideas as to what i should do for this small area? (up ahead is the museum)
@cobalt zenith stitches was I think the first villager I wanted and got from a random island! He’s super cute.
It looks empty without the grass @nyom
my campsite area aka one of the only areas on my island that i like, haha!
@sinful kraken benches, flowers and lanterns as well as trees
I got him from the campsite by pure luck. I'm so glad I did 🥺
@sinful kraken maybe add some fish/bug models or fossils! Also trees!!
What sort of furniture set could I use for a table, chairs and other decorative items in my planned dating area thingy? The theme of my island is like a natural forest, if that is any help sweat_smile
Yall got any ideas for how i could make a zen garden here?
what can i do next to my campsite
@cobalt zenith normal wood furniture
thanks guys!!
Log stuff? That could work considering I nearly have the full set. Thanks Lidl!
@buoyant forum I did a sitting area
@cobalt zenith Use the wedding furniture but customised in the dark color?
@cobalt zenith 👍
could anyone help me figure out how to position this incline 🥺
That could work too, but I have hardly anything from the wedding set. I didn't visit Reese and Cyrus much, but I still have 37 of the crystals
@woven drift his island is nature themed wedding stuff wouldn't fit in my opinion.
@uncut dragon i like the first pic the best, the sideways incline!
I dont like it sideways @uncut dragon
Maybe do a sideways incline but hide it behind the panels? @uncut dragon
i like it sideways @uncut dragon
Maybe do a sideways incline but hide it behind the panels? @uncut dragon
@static idol smart!!
Valentine is right, that would be pretty smart!!
yeah, maybe move it in more to add onto what valentine said! to hide it a bit.
😮 let me try it rq
what can i do with a empty space (nature theme)
do villager homes look better in clusters or separately?
@buoyant forum a picnic spot could be nice
Out of all of the design options for the log set, what design would be the best for it? Considering my dating thing will be on my second level with the cedar(?) trees
what can i do with a empty space (nature theme)
@buoyant forum maybe a forest? or a picnic spot like homie said
@woven drift personally I think separate. Then it’s easier to give them an area that is specific to them or their personality
@woven drift that depends on what ur island style is and on ur own taste.
@woven drift honestly either! I've seen people do both styles excellently, it just depends on what works best for your island
i already have a picnic ;)))
okay, thank you! (:
Anyone have some isnpo for cubes yard?
do villager homes look better in clusters or separately?
@woven drift clusters can be nice, but can be too cluttered at times. It's better looking to have them separate with a few furniture items that represents their style
can someone send a pic of their island for inspo
If ur island is a city that cluster. If very naturals then separate them.
For example, music-related items for Fuschia, toys and stuff for stitches, gym/workout stuff for Mac
I changed it to be a little sewing station, what do you think?
that’s adorable!!
how about now 🧐
@uncut dragon maybe one more panel?
Thank you guys so much 😭😭
it disappears when i imagine the bridge ))): @harsh wing
Also maybe add some panels on the second level!!
pls can someone send a pic of their islandd for inspo
@buoyant forum this island has a lot of nature to it. It’s very natural themed: https://youtu.be/b1e-OskUdpQ
This 5 Star Island in Animal Crossing New Horizons, has been switch news lately, as one of the best new animal crossing islands and most beautiful! Zach has an Animal Crossing Island Tour for this 5 Star Island in New Horizons along with some of the Animal Crossing Tips and t...
This is my temporary rainbow garden that I have to fix 🙂 not sure yet if I like it or not but I have this space and I don’t really wanna put anything anymore haha
that’s so pretty!!
I like the look of it just going like this ⬆️ @uncut dragon
@stuck trail i just finished terraforming but have no idea how ima lay out there stuff
@icy flint half way there!! 🤣
Which incline goes well with the dark wood path?
So I have this empty plot of land that I can't figure out a use for, rn I'm debating on a flea market/diy area (which is what the pic is) but I'm not sure to how make it look better 🧐 I'll be adding paths once I figure out a good layout, tips r appreciated !
So I spent the last hour and a half trying to make a campground area. This is the result. If there's things I should add, please say so.
Maybe lots of trees!
@glass owl maybe some flowers and shrubs!
So I spent the last hour and a half trying to make a campground area. This is the result. If there's things I should add, please say so.
@glass owl You could put hammocks and a barbeque with lawn chairs and a cooler?
@glass owl u can add trees , campsite sign from pocket camp
I also wanted to ask if my arcade was too much
need to add floor lights i think
It looks great!!
@vernal oxide What kind of flowers would go with it? Tbh I like the idea of adding a couple patches of weeds to give it that bit of polish
@cloud thorn I'd certainly do that if I had the law chairs and cooler catalogued.
@turbid gate don't play pocket camp, so I can't get the sign :/
hOw aBoUT NOW?
@glass owl yes!!! Weeds are a nice touch, as well as the leaf piles (I can’t think of the name of the diy right now). But honestly any flowers! I used bright colors for my campsite
hello guys i really can't choose which panel look the best what do you think? 🏃♀️🏃♀️
the window one
maybe a mix the window one and the pink one
or maybe the pik one
i agree. pink and window
@devout wadi I say you use the black and white one! It would add different tones to the space!
do you guys design your island bit by bit or do you have everything planned out?
Put like two window panels then a pink panel in order all the way down
so gulliver gave me stonehenge and idk what to do with it lol, should i go museum entrance or campsite?
hOw aBoUT NOW?
@uncut dragon wow that's so pretty 😭
@blissful socket I did bit by bit because I tried planning out my island and I hated it lol tore it all down and doing bit by bit I looooove. It made it easier for me to flow everything together since I suck at doing that
I do bit by bit but usually end up redoing every bit lol
do you guys design your island bit by bit or do you have everything planned out?
@blissful socket i do bit by bit. i tear stuff down all the time
@blissful socket I have a rough overall design but I often change things on the fly as I'm doing them haha. So I'd say a bit of both
thank you guys i will do the window and pink panel as you recommended💙💙💙
im planning on doing a 'advertisement' video for my island so have this picture again just for the funsies
so gulliver gave me stonehenge and idk what to do with it lol, should i go museum entrance or campsite?
@steel drum mine is near the museum. i just placed it today. it was in the storage for like a month and a half because i didnt know what to do with it
im planning on doing a 'advertisement' video for my island so have this picture again just for the funsies
@hidden thorn can i use this as my phone background?
i mean 😳 if you want
i do it also bit by bit but it is kind of overwhelming bc i still have so much empty space
thank you!
i mean 😳 if you want
@hidden thorn
Does this look good? I’m on the fence about it-
@blissful socket that is why I started from my entrance and worked my way out
i should have done this...
These are the parts of my island it’s almost done :3
@vernal oxide id say keep the trees more to the sides/cliffs than the path? that way you can see the path clearly and have nature
Does this look good? I’m on the fence about it-
@trail totem it's a 10/10 from me! i love it!
my designs are all over the place and it is hard to connect them
Thank you @hidden thorn !!
@blissful socket that’s how my island was. Then I moved every building to the beach. So for instance my shops used to look like the first two and now it looks like the last pic
lots of empty spots here, what can i do to make it more welcoming and nice.
I love that it feels like a shopping area and not just a store in the middle of nowhere @vernal oxide
yeah i will move my designs instead of trying to connect them
@dry acorn thank you!! I’ve had my stores all over my map before I liked where it is now 😂
lots of empty spots here, what can i do to make it more welcoming and nice.
@shut kindle maybe a tiny library with sofas
@icy flint what's the name of the item in the 2nd pic?
already building that upstairs🥺 @dry acorn
the rock head statue?
already building that upstairs🥺 @dry acorn
@shut kindle no, i meant the actual tiny library item. the one that looks like a birdhouse
1 vs 2 which one looks better?
oh i dont know which one that is haha
Does anyone have good ideas for a fashion runway?
the rock head statue?
@icy flint yes! looks so cool. thank you
@neat turtle I really love both the second one maybe feels more like a store
will ask for my furniture but won't give me a like smh lol
I really love 2 @neat turtle 💙
@blissful socket @frank linden thanks for the feedback!!
can y’all send me good entrances. i’m struggling
Of course!
ooo cute
@exotic maple my RS is far haha! In between top to bottom I have a fountain with benches!
wow ty
aagghf can i ask for help really quick?
@pearl dawn what did you need help with 👀
ok lemme send a picture
This is my entrance so far :]
my entrance
wowow omg 🤍
@pearl dawn no way to fix that. U have to work around it buy connecting it to ur river system
@pearl dawn add some carboard or some panels and make it seem like its the sewer system
@vernal oxide what's the name of this
Omg so good!!🤩🤩
i actually still need 2 of the pink bushes and 1 of the blue ones so if anyone has spares or is willing to sell lmk
@pearl dawn there isnt really a way to get rid of or modify the river mouth, u just have to work around it
@steel drum I think it’s called a marketplace flag? It’s from pocket camp! I got it from someone else lol
ah
aghgg idk how to work around it,, a sewage system wouldn't fit with my island theme
@dry acorn go to the #fruit-vegetable-trade channel or matierals and tools
@pearl dawn oh it’s connected to the beach. You could always do a sitting or fishing area?
just an idea it just popped inside my head but there's no way to get rid of it
@pearl dawn it may sound harsh but if u want to integrate this so it looks natural u might have to re do u residential area
Maybe make a little waterfall connecting to the residential area? Idk how you'd make that work though :(
OH I HAVE A POND IN MY RESIDENTIAL AREA THATS SO SO SO PERFECT THANK YOU
Awesome!!! Show us what u come up with when ur done! :]
i'm back!!
@pearl dawn it’s hard to tell from this picture. But I turned the one mouth of the river into a waterfall
Could I see people’s campsite area? I just finished getting mine ready to decorate around 😁😁
@frank linden i added some more weed after
ooh i love the use of the axe hahaha
@granite spire the ducksssssss 😍
@static idol your entrance is beautiful
the on thing i would change is the pathing, it feels a bit repetitive (the white wood stumps)
does anyone have any like beach ideas
Thank you so much! You can't see it but there's a little waterfall and a well area to the right that I'm rly proud of💕
@granite spire That is so cute you named them 🥺
@brisk mortar pirate bay
@manic sigil when they add more paths im using THE PATH for my campsite for now this has to do 🙂
@brisk mortar I did a surf shop! And I have my smoothie bar behind it. Sorry the photo quality SUCKS
Made a gym on my island, complete with a pool.
@vernal oxide add some swimsuits? on manequins 😄 some diving glasses aswell
@granite spire lol it’s next to it 😂 I’m slowly making it
@vernal oxide HURRY UP 😛
@granite spire that’s lovely :3 I too like the ducks as well
@brisk mortar I did a surf shop! And I have my smoothie bar behind it. Sorry the photo quality SUCKS
@vernal oxide put 100 bells on the counter
i'm trying to think of something to put in that tiny beach between the river n the airport too :')
@frank linden awh thank you 🙂
@granite spire what I have so far for my swim wear 😂😭😂😭
Acnh is turning everyone into expert exterior designers
envy, order the one from the nook stop!
Dis is all I got, there is stairs on the left side as well 😅
@vernal oxide yes envy order one from the nook shop 😂
why has everyones island gotta look so cute
@granite spire @dry acorn it’s a slow process. 😭
why has everyones island gotta look so cute
@elfin totem we copy other people
would it be cool or weird to have my orchard in the middle of the forest and inside the orchard which is in a circleish pattern a cemetery?
@dry acorn i dont know what you mean i never copy (whistle) 😛
Idk how to fill up half of my empty space, they need new shops
Here's my well area I was talking about, it's one of my fav areas so far (I don't have much done though ^^')
i tried without copying and this is my first design, it looks like a maze
That literally looks phenomenal!
This is incredible
@surreal leaf theres a list of ideas in the pinned section if you haven’t checked it out’
I love the neighborhood setup
Ohhhhhh awesome thank you Envy
i think i need to use other fences then hedges cause it looks werid
Reworked my island entrance and I’m feeling good!
I try not to use custom paths bcuz they take up so much space so I somehow have to make the normal paths look good :'] so weeds+flowers+trees are my best friends
WEED ARE HERE TO STAY
Weeds are underrated
Dream suite is confirmed according to datamine so that should be great
Also an overall tip: mixing fences adds so much depth, it's my fav thing to do

@static idol how do you do this? when i do it, it looks terrible
Just got here lol, but ey I could use some design ideas so I’ll just be stalking the chat every now and then. Anyways here’s my plaza, which actually took a good while to make (the bushes are Hibiscus). Still a wip
Dream suite is confirmed according to datamine so that should be great
@surreal leaf what's dream suite?
New Leaf feature where you can upload your island for online players to visit
it's like frozen in time. You don't even have to be there, they can destroy all your flowers etc and it wouldnt save
I usually limit myself to 2 similar fencing types, for example in my entrance I mixed country + spiky fencing then add singles of other fencing like barbed & rope where I see fit! I'm not sure how to explain my process, I go with the flow lot of the time :']
anyone got a grand museum entrance for a fairycore/natural themed island they would like to share 
Oh, and log stakes also work as fencing!!
I need them to add shampoodle 😔
@static idol log stakes r amazing
I'm hoping they add shampoodle to a Nookling expansion like in Wild World
Can't believe my favourite shop Lidl plays animal crossing
can anyone share pics of the front of their stores?
alexie that's what i said!
Made a mini classroom might add more to it😌
@dry acorn I did a little while ago. Since I took this picture I also added mom’s items to Ables!

@unreal belfry lmk if you need school chairs. i have 2 and dont use them
@dry acorn I did a little while ago. Since I took this picture I also added mom’s items to Ables!
@vernal oxide i already saved yours as inspo huehuehue 💕
@dry acorn i appreate the offer may i know what they look like i might be intrested
@surreal leaf we r just doing what Wendy's is doing when they stream animal crossing ;)
is wendy's really streaming?
@dry acorn sure ill take em do you want to go to my island or yours?
@dry acorn they used to. They have a twitch channel
when are you going to stream?
@dry acorn they used to. They have a twitch channel
@harsh wing
@dry acorn I don't stream. The corporation does not deem this as necessary
they're missing out
But I engage here to remind u that Aldi is baaaaad
i stream time to time but i barely get any viewers and i feel like many people don't watch streamers terraform or decorate 😦
if you enjoy streaming you should still do it regardless of who's watching. it's nice to be able to look back to what you've changed
true but mad annoying when people just come thru to see what your turnip price is
😂😂 my brother streams and gets 100+ views
most i got was 12 when i was really good at apex but then i started to rage on it from getting bad teammates lmao
Does anyone know any good island designer app? I wanna tear my island up and design it again
What is the width of a bridge?
@ember mesa I use happy island designer personally but there's a bunch of options in the pins (:
@tribal jetty in the pinned section!! There’s a detailed picture on there!
Any ideas on what I can put in Whitney’s yard because I have no idea
To make sure I’m reading right. 4 is the width?
I tried the organized and then i tried the scattered natural look lol Im bored now lol i spent all my money on nmt hahaha @stuck trail
Anyone ever build something in the middle of the night proud, and then the next morning you wake up with the realization it’s ugly and wanting to tear it down.
yes every time
To make sure I’m reading right. 4 is the width?
@tribal jetty the bridge itself is 2 but it takes 4 spaces
@burnt osprey I think a rose garden or other type of garden might be pretty for whitney (: maybe a little seating area with the white rattan or iron garden set?
Whitney is a dog so she needs a dog bowl
I'm ok with the entrance but idk what to do for the rest of the island
Put this one somewhere too
You should probably keep the same tile design sparrow, keep the island consistent
i fixed my river problem!!
My house is really far away so I made a dump like the one from the original game for when I'm building
Hi is someone here who does island tours for YouTube or Instagram?
My island inspiration. Super hard to terraform.
Should I expand the cliffs, so that I can fill up more space?
(I feel like I gave Cashmere and Dobie a large home yard.)
how big are log bridges compared to zen bridges?
They’re all the same length I believe @icy flint
Only difference is in height
@surreal leaf i rly like that idea, and it really looks like the original! u should try putting the wood tree stump like path that was on the cities in past games
Can someone send me map layout photos? im desperate for inspiration
@woven drift this is my current map! Still a work in progress (sorry it’s not labeled)
@vernal oxide tyy its looks so pretty 😮
the villagers 👀
@tropic vapor I still have to switch Elmer out for Ankha
@tropic vapor I tried but it looks jarring compared to the rest of my island
Can someone give me ideas on what to put in front of the residential building
@surreal leaf maybe try just a circle inside of the dump? idk
@wind rose I did instruments!
@wind rose you could do a garden area with some fountains and some benches and flowers
@haughty tangle do you have pictures to show that?
@wind rose in front of my resident services is my entrance (i only have 13 spaces in between the two) but consider a market place nearby rs as that’s what my entrance is and it just looks good
@haughty tangle that is GORGEOUS
@haughty tangle that looks so good 🥺
Thanks
No problem!
my entrance marketplace
just realized i wanna make a library/ ceramics place for coco and i don't even have books lmao
its such a pain getting books
Made a little flower/plant shop for Diana
especially cuz it’s 5 a day on nook shopping
this is the start of my marketplace area—what should i do to make it feel less empty? (the wooden plank area is much larger than it looks, more like a large rectangle than a single strip.)
Is my nook too messy?
Wow that flower cart is beautiful
Late night cranny
@frozen plume its a good kind of messy
@tropic vapor should i remove anything....
not at all! if u still feel like it’s messy ur probably distracted from the flower things
i can’t think of what else to add other than tables for my marketplace. the picture is above, it j feels v empty.
okay thanks guys!
@tall echo maybe some benches or bushes would make it less empty
Maybe add some green @tall echo or some benches
how can i decorate audie's yard? it's pretty big and expands to the beach (i'm gonna move maples house)
@tall echo make a little park area where the bikes are! it looks like it’s made to be open, but still keep the bikes. also put shrubs
thank you!! 💞
@woeful ravine if you search "in:island-layouts has:image audie" there are a lot of examples of audies yard decorated that you can browse through for inspiration~
Finally finished my rainbow garden
oh great thank you! 💜
If anyone on here has the resident services that's like 6 feet away from the airport, how did you make your entrance?
@keen basin mine RS is pretty close and to the left, i used cliffs around a pathway that makes it seem longer than it actually and decorated around that
@stoic pawn Thanks! i tried to make a waterfall place but my villagers houses were too close at the time
Does anyone know if this is patched or is going to be patched?

Today we take a step back from the latest Animal Crossing New Horizons news, and instead go over all the steps you need to know to create a secret area on your Animal Crossing New Horizons island.
In today's Animal Crossing tutorial, we make use of th...
I need a 3rd house for space. Any idea of where to put it to keep the symmetry.
i think its been patched @radiant urchin
@radiant urchin I’d ask in glitches. To verify
I cry inside. Why must everything I love be taken from me ;-;
@minor cloak in the middle of the two yellow houses on the top
@radiant urchin yeah it’s been patched
Ripp. Ok, thank you, all of you
@tropic vapor i have a park there. I was thinking on the beach or something and use it as my trading house. Even tho it will mess up symmetry 😭
@minor cloak yea put it on that mini beach it’ll be fine the map don’t rly matter
@minor cloak maybe have it mirror the camp site? and turn the building into something like a bakery or a hotel
damn my maps so ugly i wish custom paths showed up on it
@stoic pawn same
😔
I was thinking right next to the campsite too
@stoic pawn You can put regular pathing underneath custom pathing which will make it show on the map
why are waterfalls so loud :")
@radiant urchin my paths dont cover the whole tile so i cant do that either, this is the bane of my existence
Ahh yeah. Blank backgrounds will show the tile underneath
yeah ):
Heyy guyss, why did u put on the front of your plaza? Its super empty in my island and i dont know what to do with it. Any idea, inspo?
so now im working on coco's house and for her i was thinking to adad a library and some stuff for ceramics, now my question is should i move her house to be more in the middle next to the beach? or keep it the way it is
@blazing basin I did instruments!! I posted it a little bit ago!
i'm gonna do a fountian area
@blazing basin mine is just my entrance i only have 13 spaces but u could extend ur entrance
pecan's yard feels really empty, what should i add?
reason its so plain is i removed all the flowers and trees due to terraforming
maybe some log furniture
@stoic pawn shrubs and flowers!!
like some log lounge chairs or the bench if you have that avaliable and some more plants
ty @potent basin @tropic vapor ! im just waiting for the shrubs to grow somewhere else then ill add them
you're welcome 
maybe add a campfire too, and a small library gives it cozy winter vibes @stoic pawn
@icy flint i like her house where it is
I'm planning on putting three red Zen bridges in these spots. Would this work?
Or would it tell me that a bridge is simply too close to another bridge?
Would anyone be interested in helping me basically build my island. i have a theme in mind but struggle with execution skills. it would be a long process but fun if someone would help me out!
@visual drum That looks a bit too close together. Also the pathing for the diagonal bridge would be messed up btw
@full creek you can ask others for advice but no one would be able to help design or build your island. The most someone else can do is get rid of flowers and I think get rid of trees
@radiant urchin Advice?
How this this look so far? I kinda have a concept going with a sort of tree god kind of look, but Im not sold on it yet
Make the middle land a bit bigger?
@radiant urchin thats epic
@visual drum If you make the middle island bigger that should work. But itll have to be a good size bigger. The bridges dont like being close together at all. The one thatll be the biggest fuss is the diagonal one and the top bridge
Created a small area for my moon and finally did something ot the back area of the museum,anyone got any critiques or ideas of what to add?
That looks so good. It's giving me calyrex (Pokémon reference) vibes. 😅
