island-designs

[woven drift]

hellppppp i commissioned this map designing service on nookazon and they took 1 hour,,,and i hate it

idk what to do aaggghhh

[uneven current]

Ask for your money back?

[woven drift]

i didnt pay yet

[uneven current]

Maybe just ask them to change Like tell them what you like and stuff

[twilit lintel]

@icy sparrow here’s some of pictures of my shopping plaza. I have two areas. One with my nook and ables. And then another with two of my villagers that have “shops”

[austere nimbus]

yeah i mean you paid for it, but with like real money or bells and nmt?

[woven drift]

i didnt pay yet | in game stuff

[cedar acorn]

Anyone have a bakery area for inspo

[austere nimbus]

oh then idk lmao, but try to ask them to change it

[vernal oxide]

@cedar acorn

[limber ginkgo]

@cedar acorn ignore the trapped 🐴

[plain forge]

@limber ginkgo thanks. I need to improve my lag as well but have been struggling to understand what's causing it / the least I can change to fix it 😂
@stuck trail @limber ginkgo oof the section near my RS lagged a lot bc of all the custom designs on simple panels (my RS is surrounded in it 😂) and there's more on the right side... I took out a few panels, a music player and maybe 1-2 items and it seems to lag a little less ;;

[woven drift]

sneak peak of my island a korean friend of mine decided to help me :D

[vernal oxide]

I need to move all the bakery items to Merengue’s area but I don’t even have time 🥺

[stuck trail]

@plain forge thanks for the input I didn't realize that custom designs were a big contributor to lag so that sucks 😭

[woven drift]

its like a ghost island lol

[vernal oxide]

@woven drift omg when you post more pictures PLEASE @ me. I HAVE to see the whole island. That is absolutely perfect

[woven drift]

lol it took long XD

i'm still working on it i want it to look perfect

[limber ginkgo]

I helped my cousin with his entrance and that took a long time

[vernal oxide]

Completely understandable lol but that already looks perfect hun 😍

[woven drift]

Yep! Tysm!

envy it took atleast 7 months

[limber ginkgo]

but the game is 4 months old

[spring drift]

Lol!

[woven drift]

oof sorry i type to fast

[uncut tendon]

Dunno what to put in front of the ables, can anyone help?

[limber ginkgo]

@uncut tendon Displayed clothing?

[woven drift]

and i accidentally pressed the wrong number im such an idiot its hard to see since i have albinism

[median lion]

Custom designs?

[waxen charm]

does anyone have a cottagecore island that can send a pic or two?

[sudden cipher]

Suggestions on the entrance? It took so long but I feel maybe I can include a bridge maybe

[woven drift]

@waxen charm I have way too many lol

i'm going to continue my island.

[fringe leaf]

This is my wip beach market that connects to my ables and nooks ❤️ please ignore my island map I’m in the process of redoing my entire island haha

[woven drift]

Gorgeous!

[sage fulcrum]

@sudden cipher I think you should replace the area your standing on with a bridge of your choice and maybe add more light? Also sticking to 1-2 colours as your theme would be more settling so there wouldn’t be random flowers

[sudden cipher]

Ooh I like that idea @sage fulcrum thanks 😊

[sage fulcrum]

@sudden cipher for example my first level is all brown and green , second level is white and pink. It just makes it easier to pick furniture to place

[austere nimbus]

i have so many of those little ledges that stick out to the beach, not the big peninsula just those little areas of land that juts out, and i have no idea what to put there :<

[median widget]

I need help adding stuff in my mushroom garden lol

[sage fulcrum]

@austere nimbus what I did with my land that juts out is make a little secret beach, so I put sand then put the usual sand and beach furniture !

[austere nimbus]

@sage fulcrum ooh sounds cute! ty

[zealous valve]

finally finished my greenhouse, took forever to order all those simple panels and customize them😖

[scenic moat]

@zealous valve it looks so cozy i love it!

[zealous valve]

@scenic moat thanks! 🥰

[warm star]

Anyone have a library area I can look at for inspiration?

[sudden cipher]

Ah I see @sage fulcrum I took this after sunset so my bad for not posting it earlier

[twilit lintel]

@zealous valve I know the struggle. I have like 2 areas that used like 50+ panels.

[sage fulcrum]

@warm star here are some I found on Pinterest :

[zealous valve]

@twilit lintel a limit of 5 a day 🙄

[warm star]

@sage fulcrum ty

[twilit lintel]

@zealous valve I had to pay someone to just time travel for me because I wasn’t about to do all that Lolol

[lavish monolith]

@warm star i have small library

[vernal oxide]

@warm star this is my library!

[keen lion]

Hey y’all! Does anyone have a lil teddy bear picnic spot? Because I need inspo for mine 🥺

[sage fulcrum]

@keen lion here are some I found online :

[vernal oxide]

@keen lion I’m actually making a cub area and haven’t done much with it since I’ve been working all the time. But here’s a little picnic behind Judy’s house! Ankha and Pekoe checking it out😭😍

[keen lion]

@sage fulcrum @vernal oxide thanks! They’re so cute-

I’m thinking about putting mine here next to where I’m moving my shop-

[viral crater]

Still don’t understand why people put pools right by the ocean, but this was the only place I had room ^^;

[sinful igloo]

help how do i make this look better.

[copper thorn]

hmm u could do a border around the b&w tiles

[viral crater]

Push it out to the side just a little
It’s not perfect, but it’s what I did with my arcade

[copper thorn]

that just takes up like 1/3 of the design pattern ? so the rest is transparent

[keen lion]

I don’t have anything like that on my island yet so I can’t help 🥺

[waxen charm]

anyone know how i can improve my entrance?

[sinful igloo]

Thank you i'm gonna try to make a border

[vernal oxide]

@waxen charm what about some bushes? Can scatter a few around

[woven drift]

Anyone know what I can put here? Moving my camp soon

[hybrid cedar]

Dom’s new gym!

[vernal oxide]

@woven drift you could try turning it into a farm?

[woven drift]

anyone have some themed tropical entrances?

[keen lion]

Any critique on my entrance and outside area? 😄

[woven drift]

@woven drift

@keen lion flowers trees bushes?

[keen lion]

@keen lion flowers trees bushes?
@woven drift Hmm... I see what you mean, but where can I put them?

I swear how can y’all get good pics of your switch screens-

[woven drift]

@keen lion maybe rearrang your pathing

[wispy tiger]

I rebuilt my river today. Please let me know what I can do to improve it and what you think!

[woven drift]

im done, im quitting, no ideas, no space 🥳 (oh and no motivation)

[dire tapir]

@wispy tiger depends if you want certain fishing spots. Seeing as some fish only spawn in upper rivers

[west parrot]

secret pottery area

[wispy tiger]

@dire tapir could you explain what that means? So sorry I’m just confused

[woven drift]

wait...should i restart :0 best idea of 2020

@woven drift yes as long as you don’t quit! Don’t give up

[dire tapir]

@wispy tiger there are 3 floors of land you can build on. If you dont have rivers and pond on one of the upper levels you wont be able to spawn in those fish

[stark plank]

Does anyone have a pic of a little library area?

[stuck trail]

@woven drift restarting won't really change any of the issues you're having? restarting is really only worthwhile if you are in dire need of different river mouths / RS placement

[wispy tiger]

@dire tapir okay thanks so much!!! I will build a pond on the upper part, thanks so much for explaining!!

[deep spear]

has anyone done a villagers house on its own tiny island

[dire tapir]

@wispy tiger make sure you have a river as well...moving water :)

[woven drift]

@woven drift restarting won't really change any of the issues you're having? restarting is really only worthwhile if you are in dire need of different river mouths / RS placement
@stuck trail not really, only rivers (not the mouths) and mountains im missing

[stuck trail]

@woven drift rivers and mountains can always be rebuilt. if you're regretting flattening your island, look at a starter map (your own or a different one you like better) and roughly recreate it so you have a starting point.

[dire tapir]

@wispy tiger would look really cool if the corner of you river was a tier 3 waterfall feeding both rivers with a short river up top connecting them

[woven drift]

@woven drift rivers and mountains can always be rebuilt. if you're regretting flattening your island, look at a starter map (your own or a different one you like better) and roughly recreate it so you have a starting point.
@stuck trail why havent i thought of that...tyyy

[stuck trail]

@woven drift no problem 💕 hope it works out for you!

[wispy tiger]

@dire tapir oooo yes that would look very cool!! Thanks for the suggestion. It will probably not look very good because I’m still practicing terraforming

[woven drift]

@woven drift cute! Love dobie

[dire tapir]

Creating fun works of art with terraforming is how you get better at terraforming

[zealous valve]

@woven drift whoa what plants are those on the left

[shadow temple]

flowers

[zealous valve]

i've never seen that before wow

[dire tapir]

@woven drift dont forget to place a shovel in the sand ;)

[vernal oxide]

@stark plank my library! It’s not small 😅

[stark plank]

@vernal oxide do u think u can spot me on books for bookshelves I can pay

[dire tapir]

@vernal oxide haha you sure it's not a bookstore with how big it is? That's great!

[vernal parcel]

hey guys! i’m looking for ideas/inspiration of a city/japanese island! i tried asking my parents but they don’t get animal crossing haha

[zealous valve]

@vernal oxide your library reminds me of the one from beauty and the beast

[vernal oxide]

@stark plank sorry! I’m not on much. You can probably buy a bulk on nookazon!

@dire tapir thank you!!
@zealous valve some others actually have bigger libraries 😂 but thank you!!

[zealous valve]

@woven drift i just realized you could use the watermelon beach ball for your farm 😄

[green needle]

looking for live music inspo or an outdoor dock/amusement park inspo!!!!!

[woven drift]

@vernal parcel try searching in:island-layouts has: image japan

[zealous valve]

@woven drift that works too 😆

they might come out with a farming update sooner or later @woven drift

[scenic abyss]

my little train station! Any recommendations?

[craggy swallow]

drake gave me a shell arch and i have no clue what to do with it, any ideas?

[zealous valve]

@scenic abyss you could add simple panels with train schedules

[scenic abyss]

@zealous valve ouuu you’re right! I hope I can find a custom slot I could sacrifice 😂 ty!

[floral nimbus]

Hey peeps! I did this earlier today but I have a naturey island that has several portions as a WIP and I'm looking for a few people that can come, check out my island and give feedback on the areas they liked/didn't like and which areas should use more lighting (as well as what type of item?), and let me know what the overall vibe they get from my island is. It's nighttime right now so i'm really thinking about "night lights"! Message me if interested and I'll let you know a few more details! 2/3 spots filled 😄

4-star island and will probably stay that way because of all the trees

[hollow iris]

does anyone have a good tiered neighborhood for their villagers? if so, did yall do a yard for each?

[opal perch]

hey which path do you guys use for your museums?

[limber ginkgo]

@opal perch orange brick to the point that it feels like I'm overdoing it

[sinful igloo]

@hollow iris i do. i did a yard for each. with a color scheme for the villager.

[opal perch]

@limber ginkgo same i love orange brick

[hollow iris]

@sinful igloo how big did you leave a space for? do you mind sharing 😫

[torpid bough]

Can someone show me how y’all did your rivers cause idk what to do

[woven drift]

@opal perch stone

[torpid bough]

These r my river mouths

[coarse jewel]

i give my villagers pretty big yards with whatever reminds me of them

[shy sand]

I'm trying to do a shipping port and was thinking of using throwback containers (stacked) to use as shipping containers.

Does that sound like a good idea? Or is there other furniture that might be better?

[sinful igloo]

@hollow iris This is biskits's yard it is about a 6 x 12. but you can do it smaller.

[stuck trail]

@shy sand I like your thinking but we can't place throwback containers on top of each other sadly

[shy sand]

@stuck trail You can place two on top of each other. At least I was able to now.

[stuck trail]

Wait really?! My bad, I didn't think that was possible!

[torn laurel]

I want it to look like the river runs off to the rocks, so I found this water pattern, does it look tacky. What can I do to make it look natural? Also don’t mind the flowers Im redesigning my island

[lofty sky]

@shy sand you could also add some cardboard boxes as well as the throwback containers

[shy sand]

@stuck trail Yeah I'll get a pic now. @lofty sky Oooh that's a good idea

[stuck trail]

@shy sand all good, just tried it with the ones in my storage and it worked! I was sure I had tried that in the past but apparently not haha thanks for letting me know!

[lofty sky]

@shy sand in front of my nooks i put a few peach cardboard boxes cause thats what they sell, and a cardboard bed cause it looks like 3 boxes in a row

[shy sand]

@lofty sky ooh I'll try that. @stuck trail Yeah was happy that it worked. 🙂

[trail seal]

not sure if this is the correct channel for this but will pay bells for someone to design an idea for me with the happy island designer website, dm me

[abstract kelp]

Looking for Sherb and Bob yard inspo

[hoary star]

mountain-top museum idea

[west parrot]

i love this area : D

[woven drift]

does anyone have some pictures of a tropical island theme?

[stiff crypt]

This is a start to my space themed town square type garden thing. Let me know what you think (looking for Leif cause I want a specific type of bush)

[hoary star]

small 7x7 cafe to fill small to medium spaces

[brisk kernel]

Can anyone show me what they dodo with there campsite because I am really stuck on what to do

*did

[hoary star]

@brisk kernel

[torn laurel]

@woven drift Im in the middle of redesigning my whole island that way lemme see if I have any good pics. I’m also curious to see anyone else with that same theme

[sly dew]

Any ideas for my campsite area?

[twilit lintel]

@brisk kernel

[young bobcat]

Can anyone give me entrance ideas? My island has an overgrown forest/cottagecore vibe to it so something that would work well with that !!

[lofty sky]

Can anyone show me what they dodo with there campsite because I am really stuck on what to do
@brisk kernel I put mine on that small bit of land that extends out, it's really simple lol

[brazen holly]

Dose any one have any Japanese ish island ideas?

[twilit lintel]

I'm trying to do a shipping port and was thinking of using throwback containers (stacked) to use as shipping containers.

Does that sound like a good idea? Or is there other furniture that might be better?
@shy sand here’s my shipping port.

@torn laurel if you need inspo for that tropical theme, my island will be open soon. I have a tropical resort theme

[lofty sky]

@shy sand here’s my shipping port.
@twilit lintel how did you get all of those cardboard boxes stacked?

[torn laurel]

@twilit lintel OH yesss pls

[twilit lintel]

@lofty sky those are different cardboard diys that stack like that

@brisk kernel @sly dew

[reef cove]

I remade my island entrance, i love it even more now

[slate olive]

anyone used tv in their arcade? if u did, pls send me a pic idk where to put mine haha

[torn laurel]

@woven drift heres some pics of my tropical isaland, anyone feel free to critique

[still laurel]

anyone know what to do in this space? thanks! :)

[twilit lintel]

@torn laurel im turning on my game right now. so give me a few minutes

[wet cliff]

Does anyone have rainbow decor? I have flowers and the ice cream lamps but not sure what else to use for a rainbow theme

[hoary star]

@still laurel maybe a small pickup/drop off area for extra items

[torn laurel]

@woven drift didn’t want to flood a bunch of pictures all at once, heres the second batch of tropical island pictures

[still laurel]

ok! :)

[twilit lintel]

@torn laurel i think maybe using the bamboo lattice fence would give it a more tropical feel for the island.

[lofty sky]

anyone know what to do in this space? thanks! :)
@still laurel i gave timmy and tommy scooters, and you could put boxes as shipments or vending machines maybe

[still laurel]

oooh!

[sly dew]

Any cool and mysterious item suggestions?

[abstract kelp]

@still laurel I like obama2's idea! You could make a crafting station there also

[lofty sky]

fortune telling set @sly dew

[twilit lintel]

@sly dew what do you mean?

[torn laurel]

@twilit lintel oooh yeah I’ll try that, also send me a code whenever ^v^

[sand harness]

What should I put on this picnic

[granite lagoon]

does anyone have a seasonal bush clock? or anything somewhat related like rock circles? i have a large circular island that i’m trying to decorate

[sly dew]

@twilit lintel Like any cool or mysterious items

[torn laurel]

I was thinking the fencing I have matches more with the bungalow flooring tho

[sinful igloo]

@sand harness I put two cushions and a picnic basket. I also put a tea set with a music player. i also put a ball and a stiff dog

[abstract kelp]

@sand harness Cushions, a board game, tea set, picnic baskets, and books! Doesn't have to be all of them but some ideas~

[twilit lintel]

@sly dew you can probably check in the #furniture-trade to find some "mysterious" and "cool" items. it just depends on what youre really looking for. or you can go on nookazon to find a list of all the items in the game

[upper sandal]

Middle of Snail’s residential area!

[twilit lintel]

@torn laurel i use bamboo lattice fencing to give my island the bungalow feel. you'll see what i mean when you come to my island

[sand harness]

@sinful igloo @abstract kelp tysm for the feedback ♥️

[shy sand]

@twilit lintel Thank you. Gives inspiration 🙂

[sinful igloo]

@sand harness np!

[torn laurel]

@twilit lintel alrighty!

[pallid hazel]

Any Judy patio ideas ?

[torn laurel]

Honestly seeing everyone else’s island designs makes me even wonder if we’re even playing the same game. How are yalls so creative

[woven drift]

Wip entrance

[upper sandal]

Maple in Snail’s marketplace today💗

[sand harness]

Here is my off centered short airport space I have thoughts?

[twilit lintel]

@torn laurel it just takes time and you take what you see from other people’s island and then put your own twist and taste into it so that it doesn’t look exactly the same. It’s all trial and error honestly

[sand harness]

Here is a better picture

[torn laurel]

@twilit lintel uwuwu thanks I’lldo that

[native moth]

Trying to go for a vaporwave type feel here. What do you guys think??

[wet cliff]

Oooh that moon through the crescent is a really cool effect! @woven drift

Trying to go for a vaporwave type feel here. What do you guys think??
@native moth looking good so far! Needs more lights

[native moth]

More lights! On it. Floor lights? @wet cliff

[wet cliff]

Yeah those would be easiest to fit

[woven drift]

@wet cliff ty 💕!

[wet cliff]

Rocket lamps are also fun

[native moth]

@wet cliff yess I should try add some more.

Behind nooks

[gray berry]

What should I do with this???

[spark plover]

@gray berry maybe a library? or you could do a restaurant/cafe

[dire tapir]

@gray berry outdoor tea shop, brewery, cafe, or fancy restaurant

[gray berry]

@spark plover @dire tapir all amazing!!

[spark plover]

yw!

[dire tapir]

@gray berry also seen people do a concert stage in spots like that...wether it be karaoke, big band, or symphony

[dense quail]

im trying to recreate the bathhouse in spirited away taking inspiration from this picture, anyone have any ideas that can make it look more oriental?

[twilit lintel]

@dense quail probably use the zen fencing first

[lilac shard]

and maybe make the house red?

[dense quail]

im planning to use imperial fences and pagodas not sure if that would look good

[wet cliff]

Yeah different colors will go a long way

[dire tapir]

@gray berry is it close to the town square? Could be great karaoke for villagers if it's in their path :)

[lilac shard]

oh, i see. that's just inspiration for the pic, not your current work in progress

[dense quail]

that is just an inspiration pic it’s not mine :)

[native moth]

@Froggy.Queen maybe something like this? And put a white fountain in the middle

[wet cliff]

Wood paths and zen bridge if there'll be a bridge

[lilac shard]

yeah. so definitely the red fence, red house. i think pagodas would work well. possibly red-striped lighthouses. i'd definitely look at using on of those faux-bridges where you put a waterway on either side of a bit of land and put down wood plank custom tiles

[dense quail]

thanks!

[native moth]

Red imperial partition might help too@dense quail

[dense quail]

@native moth ooh good idea, thanks

[lilac shard]

maybe a utility pole turned sideways would work well as the smokestack?

[stiff crypt]

Does anybody have advice for a star fragment garden terraforming. I’m not that creative and some advice would help

[brave harness]

does anyone have a graveyard built? i'm trying to build an area for lucky but i don't have any idea how to start.

[native moth]

@stiff crypt found this on reddit awhile back

@brave harness I have an asian themed graveyard. I found with this its better to not be symmetrical

[brave harness]

thanks this looks really nice.

[worthy notch]

anyone wanna come to my island?

[brave harness]

i'll try and build around this idea. Thanks again.

[native moth]

Glad I could help @brave harness you should share when you are finished!

[stuck trail]

@worthy notch try posting in #690093605821480980 or #mysterybags-and-yardsales (:

[brave harness]

i will definitely.. as soon as i finish it, it tends to take me forever to build things lol

[worthy notch]

[green otter]

I- okay 💀💀

[molten dirge]

Can someone show me how they designed their shopping district?

[carmine walrus]

oh and my zen themed rock calendar! I flattened my island and debating on remaking this or making a cottagecore one instead of zen. but I still think its one of my favorite areas on my old island.

[green otter]

Oh thats super cute

What are the statues called, the one behind the seats?

[carmine walrus]

stone lion dog! its a DIY recipe :-)

[green otter]

[silver sorrel]

simple panels are the future yall

[lofty sky]

period

[twilit lintel]

@silver sorrel i agree

[woven drift]

What are some good villagers from the 8 personalities that fit a tropical theme?

[silver sorrel]

allow me to contribute something of my own from a while ago

[brazen holly]

I’m going for a studio Ghibli theme should I use the brick stair case or the Log ramp?

[twilit lintel]

@silver sorrel that looks great! whats your island theme?

[native moth]

Genji doin some late night shopping

[silver sorrel]

That's from my old island Wetikhap, it was overall mountainous but no real theme, sadly i restarted cus i wanted to play through the game without infinite money lol, i uploaded a town tour tho so it lives on lmao

[brazen holly]

I’m going for a studio Ghibli theme should I use the brick stair case or the Log ramp?👀

[twilit lintel]

lmaooooo, i could not live with that. i have no patience when it comes to buying and decorating. so i need my endless amount of money @silver sorrel

[native moth]

@brazen holly depends the ghibli film I guess. Log ramp normally but brick if it's a more modern movie u using inspo from

[brazen holly]

Spirited away and Totoro @native moth

[silver sorrel]

i mean for my island at the time it was really good to have all that money, but then i kinda just wanted to play the game casually after that and i wasn't really able to

i got like halfway through making it into a bikini bottom themed town then kinda lost all interest so i just restarted

[native moth]

I'd say log then @brazen holly
Remember that scene where Chihiro runs down those broken up wooden stairs?

[brazen holly]

Oh yeah!

[dapper sleet]

Anyone here does island tours on YouTube ? I have cute island

[brazen holly]

Ok thanks lol I couldn’t deside😅

[native moth]

I'd love to see someone recreate that area >~< but it would take alot of inclines

[brazen holly]

That’s true👁👄👁

[native moth]

Makes my heart skip thinking about those stairs again ngl

[brazen holly]

EEK Just imagine going down those @native moth

[real pumice]

Is it possible to get the rest of my rocks lined up here?

[native moth]

@brazen holly shudder

[gleaming kelp]

yes if u used the rock method @real pumice

[woven drift]

What are some good villagers from the 8 personalities that fit a tropical theme?

[brazen holly]

What’s your island theme ?@native moth

[twilit lintel]

@woven drift i personally like to spread them out. you can come check out my island. we have the same theme

[real pumice]

got it thank you! :^) i was just wondering if their was a min amount of distance they could be from eachother @gleaming kelp

[gleaming kelp]

np! i think theyd fit perfectly there :) @real pumice

[native moth]

@brazen holly I have different themes but they mostly center around Japanese modern/rural areas.

[brazen holly]

Ooooo cool!

[idle abyss]

Anyone have any ideas on how to tie these three’s styles together? I was thinking of something simple that is cool and grim at the same time. They live in this area of my map. I visited a friend’s island earlier and the idea of an arcade area is cool but idk.

[woven drift]

What’s the best fences to use for puddles house?

[abstract kelp]

@woven drift From looking at her house I'd say vertical board fences, simple wooden fence, the lattices fences or even the bamboo fences!

[woven drift]

Oh ok thank you so much!

[fallow apex]

Finally made an attempt on my rock ares what do you guys think

[gleaming kelp]

@idle abyss arcade sounds cool. if not you could also do an overgrown graveyard or abandoned type farm if ur going for something grim

[delicate walrus]

Can anyone tell me what they do with these awkward 2 square pieces on the edge of their island? I don’t want to have only one of them curved or for it to be square! Any ideas?? :))

[fallow apex]

@delicate walrus maybe bushes?.

[stiff rapids]

@delicate walrus i use flowers

[delicate walrus]

Ty guys! I’ll experiment with your ideas :))

[vernal oxide]

Thank you to the very smart and amazing @stuck trail We made a beach ideas list!! Plenty of players ask so in case if you or someone who asks is in need of beach ideas feel free to share this!! Thank you!!

[idle abyss]

@foggy dagger thank you that also sounds pretty cool I really like the graveyard idea

[silver sorrel]

tf is a pavilion lmao

[gleaming kelp]

wrong naomi but np!! lol @idle abyss

[idle abyss]

Lol my bad @gleaming kelp

[glacial axle]

Anyone have cute bonfire inspo?

[burnt osprey]

Thoughts on ketchups yard?

[glacial axle]

@burnt osprey it’s so cute!! I love the signpost with her pic!!😊

[granite lagoon]

i did a bush clock, but i don’t know what else to add. i was thinking maybe waterfalls in the middle or a moon on top?

[vernal oxide]

@silver sorrel someone uploaded a picture of their beach pavilion. So I used their idea to include as well! Here’s their picture as well as a picture from online

[silver sorrel]

oh it's that thing...epic

never realized they were called that lol, thanks

[burnt osprey]

@glacial axle thank you! I put signposts for all my villagers haha

[vernal oxide]

@glacial axle I found this in the chat!!

[stiff crypt]

Took a little over an hour but it’s complete. What do you guys think?

[carmine walrus]

any entrance ideas? this is the tropical side of my island so bright and tropical ideas appreciated 👁👄👁

[sturdy ore]

Anything I could add to this? I'm not to 100% satisfied

[lofty sky]

Maybe a zen fence instead of the hedges? And stone flooring instead of the wood? I feel like it fits the theme more @sturdy ore

[quaint crow]

Anyone have fairycore inspo?

[rain glen]

Hi guys! I just wanted to show everyone the street market ive been working on! Im nowhere near finished but i thought it looked good enough to present! ^_^

[gleaming kelp]

@carmine walrus u could maybe terraform hills and such with waterfalls to make a lil walkway!! and on the top put palm trees, red/orange/yellow windflowers or pansies, and if possible put the rock head statue on the top somewhere!

[sick pulsar]

@rain glen looks amazing! really love the modern, yet zen look.

[carmine walrus]

@gleaming kelp thank you! I've been doing cottagecore things till this so I appreciate any suggestions especially flowers! I forgot about the rock head statue, ill have to keep a look out for that 😀

[gleaming kelp]

np! the pansies and windflowers give me a more tropical vibe :) @carmine walrus

[rain glen]

@rain glen looks amazing! really love the modern, yet zen look.
@sick pulsar Thanks a lot! The street market and the suburb area next to it are pretty much the only modern spots, the rest is (or will be) just zen/imperial areas

[brazen holly]

House entrance ideas?

[misty anvil]

@burnt osprey looks great ^^
Imo tho, I'd add a brick oven to it, as I think she had one in new leaf for her house
Besides that, looks great ^^

[versed wadi]

@brazen holly whose house?

[faint arrow]

Hi guys! I just wanted to show everyone the street market ive been working on! Im nowhere near finished but i thought it looked good enough to present! ^_^
@rain glen Damn that's so cool I wanna visit hahaha

[burnt osprey]

@misty anvil I was thinking I should add that, thanks😊

[misty anvil]

@burnt osprey np ^^

[twilit lintel]

@carmine walrus i personally like the red, orange, and yellow pansies and pink and orange lilies. my island is tropical resort theme

[sturdy ore]

Maybe a zen fence instead of the hedges? And stone flooring instead of the wood? I feel like it fits the theme more @sturdy ore
@lofty sky Hm, I'm not sure about the zen fence, I already used it for the entrance, but I'll see what I can do

[static frost]

Merengues lil bakery <3 ft. Vesta photobombing

[hardy siren]

I am a bit stuck on what to do with this little area infront of the shops so id appreciate any ideas

[lofty sky]

I am a bit stuck on what to do with this little area infront of the shops so id appreciate any ideas
@hardy siren a little coffee shop could be cute! with stalls and a table maybe

[static frost]

@hardy siren laundry area, cafe, bakery,or maybe little library?

[hardy siren]

Thank u both! Ive tried a cafe before and it didnt work out, so maybe itll fit here!!

[fallen tulip]

Hi!! I have a fair bit of empty space on my island, and I'm looking for references for things like cafe areas and mini shops!!

[twilit lintel]

@hardy siren maybe a small bench area?

[abstract kelp]

Been working on my duck pond!

[twilit lintel]

@fallen tulip heres my island with some different ideas you could add.

[fallen tulip]

@twilit lintel thank you!! Could I see screenshots of the cafe and diner, please?

[twilit lintel]

@fallen tulip honestly i have so many haha. would you rather come and see it in person? i have pictures, but it doesnt rly show the whole area

[fallow apex]

Hey guys heres my museum entrance my fav part of the island

[fallen tulip]

Thanks for the offer, but it's alright!! I'm mostly just looking for ideas and the kinds of custom designs I might need

I need to move my housing sector and have it a bit more roomy. I ended up cutting off a river lmao

[twilit lintel]

@fallen tulip okay! Well here’s some of the pictures. My villagers are the ones that owns the cafe and diners and other shops around the island. my villagers are scattered around the island. they have their own space

[fallen tulip]

These are great references!! Thank you!!

[fallow apex]

@twilit lintel looks amzing

[mighty field]

Finally finished Maples front yard! Love how it turned out☺️

[rain glen]

How cozy

[amber juniper]

Nooks cranny inspo anyone?

[twilit lintel]

@fallen tulip youre welcome! @fallow apex thank you!!

[versed wadi]

@fallen tulip here’s my cafe

[fallen tulip]

I ended up doing this, which is very cramped. Luckily I can make enough bells to move them again lmao

[static frost]

@amber juniper

[plain forge]

Bus stops! Ft. villagers who actually use the chairs I provide for them to wait for the bus 🥺

[torpid bough]

Ooo a rainbow

[twilit lintel]

@amber juniper this is what’s surrounding nook and ables on my island

[static frost]

Random little area to fill space lol

[mighty field]

@amber juniper not sure if u like this style but here is mine 😊

[amber juniper]

These are all lovely!! Tysm!

[twilit lintel]

I ended up doing this, which is very cramped. Luckily I can make enough bells to move them again lmao
@fallen tulip i personally like to scatter them for a couple reasons. 1) it gives them themed areas that can flow really nicely together and 2) they are more willing to explore other parts of the island when they are walking around visiting their friends

[fallow apex]

Amazing nook cranny areas

[rain glen]

When i see these it makes me wish i had more custom design slots

[woven drift]

does anyone have cafes? I need some ideas and to know what to buy all I have so far is a menu board lol

[twilit lintel]

@rain glen i try to choose designs that i know i will use more than once.

[proven cobalt]

i’ve been trying to decorate my beach but it feels kinda random and overcrowded. do the alice in wonderland table section and the cafe section look weird next to each other?

[twilit lintel]

@woven drift someone just asked about cafe not too long ago if you scroll up a bit

[static frost]

@proven cobalt i actually rlly like it 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[rain glen]

@rain glen i try to choose designs that i know i will use more than once.
@twilit lintel Me too! But theres sooo many id use more than once haha! Also, do you mind sharing those food custom design pro hats? Im trying to make a sushi bar in my street market

[cerulean harness]

Hey! Any good flower recommendations for a rustic stargazing lookout? I have already checked some websites but I want to see what you guys have to say ^^

[twilit lintel]

@rain glen https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/680443959482646561/711809761020215376/Screenshot_20200507-121844_Instagram.jpg?width=582&height=433

[fallen tulip]

Yeah, Vesta had a spot with some bamboo that I really liked. I've taken measurements for buildings and I'm gonna make something that gives each villager their own space while keeping it centralized.

[rain glen]

Thank you!

[proven cobalt]

@static frost thank you 🥺 ahh ok so it doesn’t look too overcrowded with furniture?

[woven drift]

anyone have a runway? I wanna build one cause thier so cool but I don't know what to do haha I tried and uhm it's yeah-

[static frost]

@proven cobalt i dont think so 🤩 but personally i just like that over crowded look haha! It jist makes it kore interesting i think. You did rlly good and i absolutely love that alice table! Can you post a pic of it up close? 🥺😍

More* i cant type lol sorry.🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

[fallen tulip]

Here's the entrance to my island btw!! I wanted to frame it as visitors came in so it would look nice and I like how it came out!

[twilit lintel]

@fallen tulip i used to like them being in a neighborhood, but when i did have them like that, i noticed they dont explore the island since they arent walking to other parts of the island to visit their friends. so thats one of the main reasons why i scattered them. plus the way i have them now gives them their own space without restricting them.

[fallen tulip]

That's a good point!! I think I'll split them into sections.

[grave lagoon]

@amber juniper

[fallen tulip]

@rain glen It looks beautiful!!

[twilit lintel]

@fallen tulip yeah for sure! you dont have to scatter all of them! i have 4 of them that are grouped up in pairs. like sprinkles and marshal have their own shop (ice cream parlor and cafe) and then i have marina and poppy who live in my water bungalow resort area

[proven cobalt]

@static frost thank you! here’s a close up! sorry for the low quality lol

[static frost]

@proven cobalt omg! Its ADORABLE 🥺😍 i love it!! 👏🏼

[fallen tulip]

I think I'll do them in pairs!! I've noticed some of my villagers seem to be friends with others so I'll put them next to each other. Teddy and Joey, Vesta and Celia, Ankha and Olivia, all that jazz. It'll be a lot of fun!

[rain glen]

How thoughtful!

[twilit lintel]

@fallen tulip go for it!! im sure it will look great!

[fallen tulip]

Ooh, I should personalize the areas for them!! Thanks for the help, you guys, especially @twilit lintel!!!

[static frost]

Museum area, so far lol. (Trees still growinggg lol) 🥰

[cedar spoke]

What should I add to my star gazing area?

[twilit lintel]

@fallen tulip i based off my villagers locations by choosing their jobs on the island lolol. i chose their jobs based off their house and personality. and youre welcome! glad to have helped

[lofty sky]

What should I add to my star gazing area?
@cedar spoke telescopes!! Also a white iron garden bench would look so nice

[rain glen]

Haha that's creative i just bunched 6 of my villagers in the urban area and street market

[proven cobalt]

@cedar spoke maybe a picnic area or a moon in the middle

[cerulean harness]

@cedar spoke Maybe a blanket like find a blanket code to put down? Also telescopes w/ cushions are cute. Lastly, some flowers and/or bushes!

[twilit lintel]

@rain glen haha i used to do that, until i found that i could do more with their houses and personality to give them their own themed areas.

[rain glen]

What should I add to my star gazing area?
@cedar spoke maybe a picnic or campsite area would look nice

[cedar spoke]

I already got a picnic area, idk if 2 would be over doing it @proven cobalt

I'll think about the extra picnic

[static frost]

@cedar spoke telescope and some chairs or pillows and bkankets maybe 😄🤩

[rain glen]

You can add the outdoor picnic item from the cherry blossom festival

[cedar spoke]

Definitely the telescope... idk why I didn't think of that I'm just dumb

[rain glen]

Maybe you can eventually add some zodiac furniture

[cedar spoke]

Definently have the bathtub outside

[rain glen]

Or the aries rocking chair

[proven cobalt]

this is mine, i have a small picnic blanket

[tidal pilot]

:0

[cedar spoke]

Should I move the moon seats somewhere or just take them out to replace with a telescope?

[twilit lintel]

@cedar spoke maybe move them to the middle?

[cedar spoke]

The moons right?

[rain glen]

Oh the rocket that you can make from the diy celeste gives you would look so perfect in that @proven cobalt either way it looks awesome!

[proven cobalt]

@rain glen thanks! i’ll think about adding that

[versed wadi]

Mine has a paleontology site

[cedar spoke]

Should I make it a custom flooring or keep it natural?

[fair yarrow]

You could use some trails if you feeling like it.

I am using a version of The Path with the classic animal crossing pathing from past games for my city and stuff.

You could use about anything. Wood would be nice. Just mix it up.

[carmine walrus]

if anyone who gave me advice is still on this is what I came up with! I dont actually have any flowers yet besides basic seeds but! I had some spare mum cushions and I plan on mixing them with actual flowers, and adding in some stone statues

[proven cobalt]

it depends on your island theme i guess

[cedar spoke]

I dont really have much of a theme

[gleaming kelp]

looks good so far!<3 @carmine walrus

[carmine walrus]

@gleaming kelp thank you!

[fair yarrow]

Then you aren’t as limited you can use about anything! Just think of other star gazing areas or stuff you like.

Also off topic, but the layered blankets people are using is giving me life rn.

[amber juniper]

Reason why I asked about the nooks cranny is because mine looks like this atm and I don't know what to put around it..? At the bottom of the incline theres a cafe btw so I don't feel the need to add another above

My island theme is kinda nature-y with zen and european stuff mushed in there. Idrk lmbo

[errant linden]

you could put a diner open sign in front of it

[versed wadi]

My nooks has a little busking area outside

[amber juniper]

I might do an open sign, I know I have one, thank you

[fair yarrow]

Reason why I asked about the nooks cranny is because mine looks like this atm and I don't know what to put around it..? At the bottom of the incline theres a cafe btw so I don't feel the need to add another above

You could extend it or add a shipping area. Fill it with boxes, custom designs, and furniture. You could also make a communal donation center where island residents could put unused furniture and clothes. It could also double as a space to put your unused furniture.

[lofty sky]

This is my nooks, pretty simple lol (: if anyone has suggestions pls lmk

[proven cobalt]

you could also add a little marketplace with stalls

[atomic quest]

My Nook has a fortune teller stall in front of it and another toys stall on the right

[proven cobalt]

@lofty sky looks good! maybe another palm tree on the right if theres nothing else there

[deep sapphire]

hey this is my future island design its my biggest project its not finish tho this is the plan only so i have a far journey to still go

[grave lagoon]

@atomic quest love it!!

[atomic quest]

@grave lagoon thank you!

[fair yarrow]

hey this is my future island design its my biggest project its not finish tho this is the plan only so i have a far journey to still go
What’s the theme? I am guessing a farm town or more rural kind of place!

[twilit lintel]

@lofty sky is your theme tropical theme? just judging from the palm trees. i added food stalls and a diner near my nooks cranny.

[deep sapphire]

What’s the theme? I am guessing a farm town or more rural kind of place!
@fair yarrow its an cottage theme

[bronze birch]

Does anyone have a good zen/mossy theme? Im looking for inspirations

[cobalt ice]

@versed wadi omg do you have the code for the rug? It’s so pretty!

[lofty sky]

@lofty sky is your theme tropical theme? just judging from the palm trees. i added food stalls and a diner near my nooks cranny.
@twilit lintel yes it is but its kinda all over the place lol but yeah i have lots of palm trees everywhere

[twilit lintel]

@lofty sky my island theme is tropical resort if you wanna come check it out to get some ideas

[amber juniper]

@atomic quest how the cuss did you get that cauldron thingamajig?? I have a fourtune teller stall too! I just wasn't sure where I would keep it haha! @proven cobalt I have a artisan honey stall too but its front of Goldie's home. There's a medival one too but it's in front of Chief's home. I have ANOTHER stall for diys that has a bunch of tables but I don't think it fits.. 😂😂😅

[versed wadi]

@cobalt ice MA-3548-8027-4702

[twilit lintel]

@amber juniper its a kettle bathtub thats a diy

[atomic quest]

^ what she said xD

[amber juniper]

:0 !!! That's so cooollll ty!

[lofty sky]

@lofty sky my island theme is tropical resort if you wanna come check it out to get some ideas
@twilit lintel I'm in the midst of terraforming rn but thx anyways

[cobalt ice]

What should I add in between fauna and Ellie’s house? I’m so lost

[twilit lintel]

@lofty sky no problem, just thought i would offer

[versed wadi]

A communal bench with some flowers, maybe some shrubs could look nice 🙂

[amber juniper]

@cobalt ice things that match their character Ig?? Like for Grizzly the bear I gave him this woodsy area with log furniture and lots of teddy bears

[grand ore]

Iron table and chairs with flowers

[grave lagoon]

Before en after.............. The break up... 😭........
Jk, its a finished area 🙂

[gleaming kelp]

amazing!!<3 @grave lagoon

[atomic quest]

gorgeous

[grave lagoon]

@gleaming kelp @atomic quest tysm! ❤️

[grand ore]

Aww its so pretty

[torpid cosmos]

Anyone got any rock garden designs or ideas

[wary crescent]

does anyone know the user who did this? i believe i saw it here but its possible its not 😛 i just wanna ask if they had the qr code for the blanket and stalls

[amber juniper]

HOLY CUTE THO

[jade token]

@cobalt ice Could you tell me the path code?

[cerulean harness]

Does anyone have campsite inspo? It can be yours or your inspo ^^

[twilit lintel]

@cerulean harness this is mines

[torpid cosmos]

NO IDEA what to do here! My first thought was a rock garden but im not convinced. My island is nature themed. Any ideas?

[cerulean harness]

@twilit lintel That outdoor theatre is so cute! I'll definetly have to look into that and cute campsite!!

[cobalt ice]

@jade token

[jade token]

Thanks!!

[grand ore]

heres my beach campsite inspo

[viscid charm]

I’m really struggling with figuring out where to add rivers and ponds.. just overall how to make the island more dimensional and less boring

[cobalt ice]

@cerulean harness here’s mine if you’re going for a natural vibe 😊

[cerulean harness]

@cobalt ice Adorable!!

[cobalt ice]

@cerulean harness thank you ☺️

[twilit lintel]

@viscid charm im assuming youre going for more of a natural feel? maybe try connecting it to cliffs and dont make it too straight. let it have curves and whatnot. as for the ponds, start off small and if you need to make it bigger, then go for it

[viscid charm]

I have no clue what I’m going for tbh lol

[bronze birch]

Me neither

[twilit lintel]

@viscid charm i dont really have any rivers on my island since my theme is tropical resort and its more modern. but i have this water bungalow resort area. i tried to make it feel a bit more natural since its in that type of area. i tried to make different sizes and shapes and nothing to boxy

[bronze birch]

Any bazaar or japanese night market inspo?

[cerulean harness]

Sorry I keep asking for help but lmk which you think is better for Audie's house: Audies Surf and Turf (surfboards, etc.) or Audies Beachside Aroma Shop (selling candles that will draw you back to the ocean). I have limited space so lmk! Also, if you have any other ideas feel free to bring them up!

[twilit lintel]

@bronze birch you can type " in:#island-designs has:image market" into the search bar and you'll find some pictures of different set ups

[torpid cosmos]

On the beach or on the land(right above the beach)??

[twilit lintel]

@cerulean harness i personally gave her a surf shack. her house is set up on my boardwalk while she has a small beach area for herself as well.

[fair yarrow]

Sorry I keep asking for help but lmk which you think is better for Audie's house: Audies Surf and Turf (surfboards, etc.) or Audies Beachside Aroma Shop (selling candles that will draw you back to the ocean). I have limited space so lmk! Also, if you have any other ideas feel free to bring them up!
@cerulean harness I’d do an aroma store. Sounds super different and creative!

[viscid charm]

@twilit lintel wow that looks so good !

[cerulean harness]

Thanks for your help! I might add a little bit of both in her house area ^^

[static dirge]

@versed wadi are you starting a new town? 🙂

[versed wadi]

I will be doing. Why do you ask? 🙂

[static dirge]

Oh! Because I remember when you were working on your town and I saw the tour on YouTube so I assumed you’d start a new one, can’t wait to see what you come up with next!

[round sierra]

Here is my silo area! I worked hard on it and I hope you guys like it! If you have an suggestions I would love to hear em!

[torpid cosmos]

Gah! You guys! I torn weather or not to out my campsite on the beach or on land! Thought??

[static dirge]

But yeah I thoroughly enjoyed watching someone tour your town, took some inspiration from it too 🙂

[twilit lintel]

@torpid cosmos both will look great depending on how you decorate it and what theme youre going for

[round sierra]

On the beach i think. Looks a bit off centered if u put it in that specific land area

[torpid cosmos]

@twilit lintel i have a natural themed island

[static dirge]

I’m having doubts about my ability to create a natural town even though I haven’t even started decorating yet

[atomic quest]

@torpid cosmos if it was on the land, i'd lose the double waterfall

[torpid cosmos]

@atomic quest would you keep a waterfall wall? Or get rid of both?

[vapid verge]

im trying to decorate my island but i dont know how to decorate it or what theme to go for

[twilit lintel]

@torpid cosmos probably keep it on the beach for now.

[static dirge]

I’m used to decorating like this so I’m a bit scared of my new towns theme 😳

[versed wadi]

@static dirge that looks great 👍

[round sierra]

@static dirge super pretty! What is the theme?

[twilit lintel]

@vapid verge do you wanna come check out my island to maybe give you a theme? i have different themed set ups around my island, but the overall theme is tropical resort.

[static dirge]

Thanks so much! I miss my old town a lot

[cerulean harness]

I personally like the beach, I feel like you could do more w/ it. Both look great though! @torpid cosmos

[vapid verge]

@twilit lintel sure

[static dirge]

The theme of my old town was just like a very happy relaxing place to walk through and very colourful! Neat and organised too

[torpid cosmos]

I think you guys are right! Ill do beach and make the land part a entrance themed to the campsite! Thank you!!

[atomic quest]

@torpid cosmos maybe both 😄 but i agree with the others, beach might be better

[static dirge]

This slow mode makes me mad but anyway 🥺

For my new town I’m doing like a natural theme but it’s gonna be exclusively fall, so I can only use like red yellow orange white brown etc all those fall colours

Excited nervous energy for this new project 🙂

[versed wadi]

@static dirge good luck! Keep us updated

[atomic quest]

@static dirge i'm so jealous! fall islands look so beautiful :0 I'm scared to TT that far ahead

[static dirge]

I will do! 🙂 can’t wait for everyone’s opinions, missed talking to everyone

Yeah! The idea stemmed from seeing my old town in autumn and I just loved it so much so I decided to make my new town autumn themed, gonna need tons of monarch butterfly models 😭

[abstract kelp]

Slowly extending my forest out towards my duck pond!

[upbeat scaffold]

How do you have snow?

[static dirge]

They’re in winter 🙂

[abstract kelp]

@upbeat scaffold Southern hemisphere. It's winter

[upbeat scaffold]

Ohhhh wow that’s really cool

[static dirge]

@versed wadi when you make your new town you better keep us updated! Got any plans so far?

[dry ibex]

what else should i add i feel like its rlly plain lol

[versed wadi]

@static dirge nothing concrete. Atm I’m trying to complete my museum on Pipwyn. Then I might take a break to play Paper Mario before I get properly started.

[static dirge]

what else should i add i feel like its rlly plain lol
@dry ibex maybe if you surround it in trees it’ll be more cosy

[dry ibex]

ooh that’s smart!

[static dirge]

Yeah that sounds like a good idea, I took a month and a half break before working on my new town haha

[twilit lintel]

@dry ibex the trees will give it some dimensions

[static dirge]

My break was to play Xenoblade definitive edition tho

Why is the slow mode so long 😢

Love whoever did this

[cerulean harness]

Woah that's so cute. All hail star fragment

[static dirge]

Haha FR I might try to recreate this but different colours

[cerulean harness]

All the minor details around it *chefs kiss *

[static dirge]

I’m kinda sad that people dislike new horizons

After all the lead up hype a lot of people dislike it ALSO I LOVE the soundtrack idk why ppl hate it but anyway - I know it’s not related to this channel but wanted to get it outtt

[vocal falcon]

Samee

[bronze birch]

New leaf soundtrack is fire tho imo

[static dirge]

Yeah but the new leaf soundtrack doesn’t have enough like hype tracks for me yk? Like ones that get me going

[grizzled egret]

i messed up placing a house but i don’t have enough bells to fix it should i just try and make it work or try and save up?

[static dirge]

Other than that tho it’s really good

[dry ibex]

@grizzled egret i’d just try to work with it lol unless it rlly bothers u

[static dirge]

omg I thought your pfp was ice cream then I clicked on it @dry ibex

[grizzled egret]

okay it’s literally just one space too far to the left but it might end up working

[zealous cloak]

hi everyone!! i see you talking about music so i'll jump in... i'm making a secret mermaid beach with a fully decorated seashell path, and i've placed speakers everywhere for ambiance... but which KK song should i be playing ?? I tried bubblegum but if feels too "energetic", right now it's playing kk island but i'm wondering if there is something better....

[dry ibex]

@static dirge HAHA also omg ur #0001

[static dirge]

@zealous cloak
Stale cupcakes

[bronze birch]

Cant go wrong with stale cupcakes

[grizzled egret]

do speakers actually amplify the sound?

[static dirge]

Yeeee easy tag to remember 🙂

[twilit lintel]

@zealous cloak i use aloha or calypso for my tropical theme island. maybe those will work for the mermaid area

[zealous cloak]

hmm i put A LOT of speakers and it covers the game music, but it doesn't feel "louder"!!

[cerulean harness]

Uh oh my villager just sat in front of me when I was sitting down so I jumped on her-

[astral phoenix]

Finally finished the ramen shop with a my style touch up the original ramen shop idea belongs to the reddit user

[static dirge]

I nearly sent a fancam oops-

[zealous cloak]

thanks for the suggestions i will go listen to stale cupcakes, aloha and calypso, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[static dirge]

Love the ramen shop once you decorate around it it’ll be amazing!

[twilit lintel]

@zealous cloak theres also kk island

[zealous cloak]

@twilit lintel Yep that's the one I have on for now!!

[astral phoenix]

This is the original @static dirge and the other is mine

[cobalt ice]

Went with this idea instead lol

[astral phoenix]

[static dirge]

I think I prefer yours pyra!

[twilit lintel]

@astral phoenix i made a sushi shop, but technically could be a ramen shop if i wanted it to be as well.

[astral phoenix]

Aaa i seen those ramen lantern patterns i was thinking about using those but decided against that lol

It does look like a real street stand tho i like it too!!!

[twilit lintel]

@astral phoenix thank you!

[astral phoenix]

@static dirge tysm

[zealous cloak]

@twilit lintel thanks for the song suggestions, i think aloha would fit!!

[twilit lintel]

@zealous cloak oh great! glad to have helped

[dry ibex]

@twilit lintel are the chairs ironwood chairs?

[twilit lintel]

@dry ibex yes!

[cerulean harness]

Sorry I am very horrible with taking photos on my pc, but I am finishing up Audie's home exterior (https://www.pinterest.com/pin/538883911665983137/ - inspo for outside and flowers!) with her surf and aroma shop out of frame (WIP) ^^ lmk if I can change anything!

[twilit lintel]

@cerulean harness i take pictures on the switch and then upload them onto twitter or facebook to get the best quality photos.

[dry ibex]

pls send pics of ur villagers’ yards i need inspoo djejejw

[cerulean harness]

I don't have any of those social media platforms so I like to improvize 😉

[twilit lintel]

@dry ibex these are my pictures of my villagers yard, but since their themed areas are so large, i couldnt put them on this collage.

@dry ibex the last photo is where two of my villagers live who don’t have themed areas. They live in the water bungalow resort area on my island

[abstract kelp]

Any campsite inspo pics?

[twilit lintel]

@abstract kelp

[abstract kelp]

@twilit lintel I love it! Thank you

[astral phoenix]

Oofff dragos home - i wish i could use that but i cant 😂 i used up all my resident space loll

[twilit lintel]

@abstract kelp youre welcome 😄

[astral phoenix]

iz so lovely

[hot sky]

Super excited about how my neighborhood is coming along. These are Merrys house, Lily’s house, and Maples. Please message some advice and ideas about what to do with Marshals and Marinas house.

[twilit lintel]

@astral phoenix yeah it took up quite a bit of space, but it was an onsen before i moved drago there anyways. but it worked out.

[astral phoenix]

[twilit lintel]

@hot sky my villagers aren’t in yards. They have their own themed areas. i gave marshal a cafe while marina is in a water bungalow resort area, but you could give her a sushi/ramen shop set up.

@hot sky

[cobalt ice]

Don’t really have yards for them but I have this lol @hot sky

[zealous cloak]

I made a yard for both kiki and rudy because their houses are almost identical!! and for some reason everyone wants to hang out here

[woven drift]

i need to move my museum so i can finish my neighborhood, but i dunno where to put it 🥺 any suggestions?

[hot sky]

@cobalt ice I love how everything flows together!

[zealous cloak]

@woven drift you could put it on the beach while you figure out the perfect spot

[woven drift]

thats a good idea!! tysm!! <3<3 @zealous cloak

[zealous cloak]

np, it's a popular thing to do, so things are out of the way while you terraform and plan stuff!

[cobalt ice]

@hot sky thank you! That was my goal. I wanted them to have big yards but I’m not creative enough to decorate it 😂

[final hare]

I noticed you can build a 4th level but I can't interact with it. Is there anything to do with it besides using it as a wall?

[tacit geyser]

nope

[zealous cloak]

i don't think you can

[twilit lintel]

@cobalt ice I gave my villagers shops that match their house and personality.. that’s what I based off their “yards”

[astral phoenix]

I also technically wanna know which villagers have a asian themed decor house - i recently got pekoe and hee house blends in beautifully

[twilit lintel]

@astral phoenix I believe Octavian has an Asian themed exterior house

[astral phoenix]

Drago is another and i think kabuki too but im not sure who else

[zealous cloak]

yes kabuki does

[twilit lintel]

@astral phoenix https://animalcrossingworld.com/guides/new-horizons/villager-house-exterior-designs-complete-list/ here’s a list of villagers and their houses

[astral phoenix]

Ah isee ill see if i can get octavian when another villager leaves :> i wanted to keep tia because she looks like a china tea pot but im not sure if that would match the way i think it does lol

Ty! Perfect!!!

[fringe heron]

Is it me or is it hard to come up with things to place at the edges of the grass/beach?

[zealous cloak]

@fringe heron yesss totally.. next to the forest i just put some cliffs

[manic sigil]

yeah cliffs is a great idea

[zealous cloak]

use them as a seperator and decorate them

[quaint crow]

What do you guys think of my library?

[fringe heron]

@zealous cloak

Oh I've done that. Personally didn't like how it looked. But I'm gonna try again. :)

[terse thicket]

hey guys, im making a marketplace with brick pathways and im going for a more "old style, magical" market. is there any archway or entrace thingie i could use that will fit this theme?

[knotty wolf]

just did my museum for the 100 time yesterday idk if i like it🤧

[tacit geyser]

I dug river trenches around my towns perimeter

[cobalt ice]

@knotty wolf this is so pretty!

[fringe heron]

Oooo! I love that museum.
It looks so beautiful!

[knotty wolf]

i feel like its missing something and idk what🤯

[twilit lintel]

Is it me or is it hard to come up with things to place at the edges of the grass/beach?
@fringe heron I put boardwalks around those edges. But since you’re doing more natural, maybe put some palm trees there along the edge so that it blends into the other area

[cobalt ice]

@knotty wolf put some stuff on top of the little cliffs you made maybe?

[knotty wolf]

@cobalt ice i cant ):

[versed wadi]

If the coastline shape is awkward I’d say don’t worry about it. Coastlines are awkward IRL. You don’t necessarily need to fill every square with something on your island 🙂

[cobalt ice]

More flowers/shrubs? Lol

[knotty wolf]

@cobalt ice i take it back it worked it wont let me yesterday lol ty

[cobalt ice]

Idk if it has something to do with the update but I noticed that when planting stuff by water I have to patch it up then plant then break it back to water..

[atomic quest]

@cobalt ice yes! it's so annoying but it came with the swimming update

[tacit geyser]

??

[cobalt ice]

@atomic quest ok I thought I was tripping at first cause I swore I was able to plant stuff by water before without having to do that lol

[atomic quest]

it always says 'not enough space' now >< i also thought i've gone mad when i first had it

[tidal pier]

Does anyone have some neighbourhood inspo to share? I've remade mine like a hundred times and it never ends up looking right 💔
Going for like an old mainland europe vibe

[rare raptor]

A work in progress until I get colours of items I want but quite happy with how my doggy daycare turned out 😊 🐶 🐾

[fringe heron]

@twilit lintel

I'll try to see if that works. If it doesn't then I'll give up on that area for now and focus on another area.

[zealous cloak]

doggy daycare is such a cute idea!!!!!!!!!!!

[rare raptor]

@zealous cloak thanks!!! I had extra mom's plushies so used an area to place them 😊

[carmine walrus]

my somewhat final results of my entrance after more hours that id like to admit! I wanted it to be more tropical but it ended up being a mishmash of my entire island which I think works for it being my entrance!

[abstract kelp]

First time designing a campsite and I have no idea what else I can add 😓

[tacit geyser]

campfire?

[cerulean harness]

@abstract kelp Maybe some bushes and a picnic area?

[coral shale]

Maybe some log stakes, more trees, tree stumps..??

[tacit geyser]

nvm I see it in the corner

[fair yarrow]

First time designing a campsite and I have no idea what else I can add 😓
Just add fun little areas you would like. Maybe you have a little washing area or a hammock.

[carmine walrus]

@abstract kelp cooler box and barbecue make for a cute addition if you want it to look more civilized rather than natural depending on the look you are going for!

[knotty jetty]

Can you share how your neighborhood looks like? Trying to get ideas on how to place them next to each other

[twilit lintel]

@knotty jetty these are common layouts

[abstract kelp]

This is whats surrounding my campsite! It's a thick forest which is why I wanted an open area for a campsite. Been dealing with so many trees 😂 Ive been thinking of an adding a second level picnic/cooking area to the right of the campfire so all of your ideas are perfect thank you!

[knotty jetty]

@knotty jetty these are common layouts
@twilit lintel thanks!

[twilit lintel]

@abstract kelp my campsite is surrounded by a thick forest as well. I made an opening for my campsite which has a campfire, some log benches and other stuff to give it that more camp vibe. Adding weeds also help give it that natural vibe

[abstract kelp]

@twilit lintel Oh thank you for the close up! It's exactly my style! What's that item by the logs? Looks like some leaves with marshmallow sticks? 😭 I need to see if I have that

[tawny dagger]

does anyone have ideas of what i should decorate the beach with? ive done two of the smaller beach areas but i have no clue what to do with the rest

[twilit lintel]

@abstract kelp it’s a leaf campfire and then you can customize it to get the marshmallow

[versed wadi]

@abstract kelp I have my campsite on two levels in the forest. Cooking on the lower level, chill out and tent area on the top:

[twilit lintel]

@tawny dagger here are my beach areas. Some of it is on land on the boardwalk but you can move it down to the beach

[tawny dagger]

those are so cute! ty @twilit lintel

[abstract kelp]

@versed wadi I think it's a really good idea and I love what you did with it! So many items I didn't think about adding. Thank you!

The full view of my duck pond and the campsite in the background I wanted it to be secluded and tucked away

[frail nest]

Seeing all of these makes me want to just delete my island 😭

[coral shale]

w0w can relate ^^

[abstract kelp]

@twilit lintel I have the diy but I'm missing one pine cone 😂 I wish I collected more

[twilit lintel]

@abstract kelp haha at least you have the diy. I bought my leaf campfire

[vale cargo]

I am stuck on my villagers area design.. can someone give me an idea... I can't find any inspiration... They only have flowers ryt now

[elfin prism]

Hey guys, I have a question. Should I wait 8 days and add the rest of my bridges/ inclines or should I tt?
Just for additional context I've spent the past two or more weeks completly redecorating my island (I even lost my 5 star rating for over a week 😂 )

[supple drum]

I've been working hard on making Goldies area look perfect, I'm gonna surround the flowers with fences soon

[frail nest]

Hey guys, I have a question. Should I wait 8 days and add the rest of my bridges/ inclines or should I tt?
Just for additional context I've spent the past two or more weeks completly redecorating my island (I even lost my 5 star rating for over a week 😂 )
@elfin prism personally i would tt to get it done

[twilit lintel]

@vale cargo I scattered my villagers giving them themed areas which go well with my theme. If you’re having trouble decorating their yards, try basing it off their house exterior and their personality and hobbies. Here’s some pictures of my villagers “yards”

[lofty condor]

Hey guys, does anyone have a layout somewhat like this one?

[vale cargo]

@twilit lintel i have them on one area except for Snake coz she goes well with my Japanese area... I have Audie too but I am afraid I can't put her on the beach coz my sister doesn't want any hindrance in the beach area... But thanks for the advice

[tacit geyser]

wow thats alot of water

[twilit lintel]

@vale cargo ahhh okay. I personally like them scattered because it gives them their own themed areas and there’s also a chance that your villagers will explore more parts of the island when they are scattered because they have to walk to visit their friends.

[frail nest]

i wish i had your guys skills to make my island actually look nice. 65 hours played and i’ve done nothing to my island 😩

[twilit lintel]

@frail nest lol I have over 750 hours. It’s gonna take time but also trial and error. Don’t stress. You’re really only at the beginning of the game.

[static dirge]

Hey

[agile canyon]

Can someone help me with island inspiration, I'm going for a "Cozy Forest" Theme and I find it quite challenging. Dm me if you're interested.

[vale cargo]

@twilit lintel one thing i love about my villagers is even if I put them on one area I always see them everywhere 😂 i even saw Snake going to an area under a waterfalls that no one is even going... She is such a character

[static dirge]

The time travel chat really died huh

This drawing is amazing

[opal rivet]

I saw that on the reddit when someone recreated it

[twilit lintel]

@vale cargo yeah they’re more willing to explore when they are spread out, but it also depends on their personality. I believe lazy villagers tend to not go out as much. From what I’ve heard

[static dirge]

Whoever drew it deserves MAD props

[opal rivet]

it came out really nice

[static dirge]

FR!

[versed wadi]

@agile canyon most of my island is forest themed. What areas are you looking for inspo with.

[static dirge]

I’m unsure on my new islands name but guess I’m stuck with it now huh

[vale cargo]

@twilit lintel true I had Sally as a lazy villager... I just always saw her sitting outside her house lol... Thanks for all the advices... I will start the design tom

[twilit lintel]

@versed wadi lol send her your YouTube video since it’s pretty thorough. Lots of inspiration she can go back to look at.

[versed wadi]

@static dirge I’m considering restarting island 2 because I phoned in the name

[static dirge]

Omg if it bothers you, you should, my island name just bugs me because it doesn’t fit the vibe of it like ‘Alcamoth’ is the name of an imperial capital and my island is natural so

[manic sigil]

i pity the people who named their islands after the outbreak

[static dirge]

Yikes kekrkejekss

[manic sigil]

yeah ive seen a ton of people with those island names

[static dirge]

I’m in love with this design, gonna recreate it in my town but a bit differently I think, very cutee I think the person who made it has their name on it

[fair prawn]

I feel like the vending machines don’t fit since the rest is so cottage core.

[static dirge]

Yeah

I would replace the public benches in the middle the utility poles and the vending machines too with something else

[fair prawn]

Maybe just make the middle part a flower patch?

[static dirge]

It’s more like the terraforming I love I think

Can’t say no to flowers!

[fair prawn]

Yeah, it crates a good atmosphere. I don’t have enough space for this on my island

[clever tiger]

i'm having trouble picking the general path of things. i kind of want to use custom codes but then i can't find what i want. i dislike pastel colors and my island is (attempting) to be more natural since i already live in a city (why would I want to relive city life?)

[static dirge]

I swear double south islands are so much SMALLER than other ones my old island and current one feel so small compared to island tours I look at

[fair prawn]

It is just the way you use your space

[static dirge]

I mean mine is empty and my old one was p spread out

[fair prawn]

I have 6 squares between my airport and residential services

[static dirge]

Oh damn mine like is to the left top of my river

[versed wadi]

I think it looks awesome

[fair prawn]

Lucky. I had so much trouble decorating my entrance

[static dirge]

Your wind farm mcgibbon

[twilit lintel]

@static dirge I have double south rivers. It just depends on how you decorate and terraform honestly.

[static dirge]

@static dirge I have double south rivers. It just depends on how you decorate and terraform honestly.
@twilit lintel ah ok I’m considering just getting rid of all my rivers when I begin decorating idk

Lucky. I had so much trouble decorating my entrance
@fair prawn my entrance was super close to my residential services so I just didn’t make an entrance:

[twilit lintel]

@static dirge I got rid of mine honestly. Because I did have trouble creating a natural river from it. But like I said, it just depends on how you decorate and terraform it. Here’s my map.

[static dirge]

Look the water section that leads up to your house looks so cool

[versed wadi]

There isn’t a cottage core rule book, if there was everyone’s island would look the same. Experiment, don’t try and fit into a label. I think ‘What’s your island theme?’ Has become a loaded question and now everyone is trying to fit their island into one. Just make your island somewhere you wanna spend time and have fun with it.

[static dirge]

I wish the cafe was in the game it’d be so perfect for my island aesthetic

[fair prawn]

My island isn’t a theme, it is just what I think looks good

[twilit lintel]

@static dirge yeah that’s my water bungalow resort area. Sorry I meant to sent the labeled map.

[static dirge]

Ok but why do people put core after every word like fairycore cottagecore I even saw one called desertcore?

[fair prawn]

Idk

[twilit lintel]

@static dirge lmao what does that even mean honestly. Why do people put core at the end of their theme? Lmao

[static dirge]

Idk omg it confuses me

[versed wadi]

Cottagecore exists as an aesthetic outside of animal crossing

[static dirge]

I know what I wanna do with the island after this for sure, and yeah I know cottagecore is but not other ones I see it confuses me haha

[woven drift]

core just means like theme/genre

[static dirge]

Oh okay, fair enough

[versed wadi]

But the community ran with it and wanted to show how their island differs from that aesthetic so invented new terms. It’s fine that’s how language works. But I don’t think themes should be prescriptive, if it helps inspire then great.

[static dirge]

Yeah it’s not an issue by any means just thought it was odd, at least every town does not look the same like they did in new leaf ( they pretty much looked the same in NL anyway )

[torn gazelle]

@cobalt ice I love what you did with your villagers houses. It's what I've been wanting to do but couldn't find any inspiration. I just unlocked terraforming so it's like a daunting thing to me XD

[glacial axle]

Any nature themed farmers market inspo?

[woven drift]

@glacial axle heres mine

[proud dragon]

@versed wadi 100% my island doesn’t fit into any theme, and that’s exactly how I like it. Go with your creativity a theme doesn’t need to mean anything if you don’t want it too.

[zealous mortar]

farm!! but it now has a rocking chair in the background

[manic sigil]

@zealous mortar lol i cant see the rocking chair, where is it?

[zealous mortar]

it's changed like,,,, i added it after i took the picture,,

[manic sigil]

oooooh lmao

[zealous mortar]

like that's a photo i took yesterday but i put a rocking chair today lmao

[versed wadi]

Lol I also went looking for a rocking chair.

[zealous mortar]

i wanna put something to the right of it in front of the silo, any suggestions? maybe a workbench since i dont have many of those around

[versed wadi]

@zealous mortar I try and squeeze in a workbench at every opportunity so I’m never too far from one on my island 🙂

[static dirge]

I need all the mush recipes 🥺

[manic sigil]

autumn will be soon for northern hemi

[static dirge]

I TT so it’s not too bad but the hard part is getting the recipes

[manic sigil]

any feedback? i like how it is now but i think it could be better

i kinda dont like the hedges on the bottom but people said i should add them

this is what it looked like before ⤵️

[static dirge]

The hedges do make it look better

It’s a cute area but I think it’s in the wrong place if that makes sense like I wouldn’t make it your residential services entrance 🙂

[manic sigil]

hmmm

then what could go there instead? im kind of stumped

[static dirge]

You could always do the path around the fountain, a classic

I’m not sure either maybe just a path up then decorate it?

[manic sigil]

if you want i could show you the area around it

[static dirge]

Sure

[manic sigil]

this is on the left of it

[static dirge]

Oh I like that

[manic sigil]

yeah i also really like that area

[grave lagoon]

@glacial axlethis is mine but its not a farmers "market". But maby for some inspo, you can turn it into a market

[static dirge]

This is cloudys orchard

[manic sigil]

@static dirge on the right i havent done anything else yet

[static dirge]

My friend made it she’s really talented

[manic sigil]

yeah so idk what to do there

[static dirge]

Hm me neither

[manic sigil]

welp ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[umbral spire]

Damn, you guys are so creative whilst I'm still stuck on a theme.

[molten lion]

this channel makes me feel like i live in a trashcan

[woven drift]

Frfr

[manic sigil]

ive only done pretty much 4 areas im happy with

and theyre all the ones i posted here so i feel you

[static dirge]

Isabelle just told me I need more shops but there’s only 2?

[manic sigil]

maybe museum counts as a shop?

[static dirge]

I have that

I have every building

[manic sigil]

hmm idk? maybe youre moving one and it counts as if it isnt on your island?

[static dirge]

Nope not moving anything so weird aaa

[wheat estuary]

I need a layout for my island , can anyone share there’s with me?

[manic sigil]

@static dirge lol idk then

[turbid rover]

I think my island is coming along nicely, I’m trying to thing of some pathways though on the left side to start a zen garden of some sort after I move my one islander to the right side. Any thoughts?

[manic sigil]

i feel like the theme of my island is foresty? im not sure yet tho
like it was a forest and now theres a town situated in it, but they still kept the forest mostly alive and built into and around it

[modern spruce]

I’m stuck what should go there to the right of the path

[turbid rover]

I never thought of an idea like that, I have going kinda city, yet country-ish

[vernal trellis]

I think I've posted it before, but here's Raymond's yard!
He seems to like it-

[gusty magnet]

I think I like bob a bit too much...

[olive nest]

Beach plaza idea!

[opal cedar]

Im gonna redo my entrance, any ideas? Theme: cottagecore

[mint pier]

Mine looks like this, but I don't know if that's an great idea.

That also isn't the version I have rn, this picture was taken a month ago, I guess? Sometime then.

[wispy tiger]

I redid my rivers today on the base level! Please tell me what you think

[chrome quarry]

It's really amazing. Good job

[wispy tiger]

Ty so much!

[ionic wyvern]

Should I change the bushes every new season or should I leave them ? Would replacing them with flowers be better ?

[wheat estuary]

I need someone that’s really creative to help me out with my island, can pay in nmt

[versed wadi]

@opal cedar

[ornate spindle]

@olive nest is that Golden grass just because it’s autumn or?

[olive nest]

@olive nest autumn!

So if you need maple leaves

[ornate spindle]

I need everything from autumn haha

[limpid aspen]

@opal cedar ignore the items on the ground 😂

[young zephyr]

Help what to do here? It is just before the path leading to redd. I already have cafe,diner, gym, library, observatory, campsite, movie house, park, massage, sushi bar, work station, orchard, garden, parking area, arcade, zen garden, and playground. Running out of ideas

[steel jewel]

does anyone have asian inspired orchard inspo😦

[elfin prism]

@young zephyr what about a karaoke/ music area for your villagers, if you don't already have one of those

[young zephyr]

I have. I forgot to include haha. It is more of a concert hall

[lost kernel]

I don't know what to do in this little area 😥

[mint pier]

ignore the items on the ground 😂
@limpid aspen
Question, what is the 2x2 stone path? Was looking for it, but I didn't find it.
The code I mean lol

[wheat agate]

Hey peeps I'm making a horror movie island, any ideas?

[wheat estuary]

Can someone give me a tour of there island? Need some ideas on how to terraform and section off my island

[dim knoll]

So i think this looks pretty bad.. any ideas how i can make it look better and what i can make overthere? I actually want to set it apart from the beach but its pretty hard

[young zephyr]

Display swimming suits?

[manic sigil]

@dim knoll raise the bridge up a level so you wont see the grass on the sides

[dim knoll]

But then i have to go up with ladders right?

[manic sigil]

yeah i guess so, unless you have two inclines that you havent used up yet

[ashen lantern]

A caming area

[silver dust]

Really struggling with this much space do you have some ideas 😂

[final hare]

Is it possible to dig or fill a hole without having to start/end at a cliff?

[ionic wyvern]

Should I replace the bushes, leave them or replace them with flowers ?

[lost kernel]

I don't know what to do in this little area 😅

[manic sigil]

@lost kernel i would say just fill it up with more trees and flower and shrubs if you dont plan on doing anything there

[ionic wyvern]

I don't know what to do in this little area 😅
@lost kernel maybe add some lamps ? Or more flowers and bushes ?

[woven drift]

Help what to do here? It is just before the path leading to redd. I already have cafe,diner, gym, library, observatory, campsite, movie house, park, massage, sushi bar, work station, orchard, garden, parking area, arcade, zen garden, and playground. Running out of ideas
@young zephyr I personaly will put the stone path simmetrical to the stairs and put some fountain or sculpture with some bushes or flowers, with a bench maybe and some light

[lost kernel]

@ionic wyvern @manic sigil yeah i think i will do that thx!

[topaz valve]

@lost kernel or you could make a little picnic spot

[lost kernel]

@topaz valve yeah i can try. Thx!!!!

[topaz valve]

Good luck!

[young zephyr]

@lost kernel Yeah add mush lamps or nova lights too

[lost kernel]

@young zephyr I dont have mush lamps and nova lights🤣😅 but ty!

[west parrot]

rainbow celestial garden

[wispy jay]

@west parrot That looks amazing!!!!

[mint pier]

Finished my left waterfall, quite happy with it

[plain snow]

🤔

[manic sigil]

[plain snow]

Just made this market place

[woven drift]

🤔
@plain snow
cute and dangerous

[celest talon]

how does this look so far im struggling

[woven drift]

With the path (the popular dirt one) do they put nothing underneath?

[tropic vapor]

yea kinda a struggle with the map

[woven drift]

They need to make custom designs show up as paths too 😔

[tropic vapor]

the thing is i rly want that but i also use custom designs so that my areas that have path for floors don’t show up

[lost kernel]

If you want them to show up you have to place them on path

[tropic vapor]

ik but certain transparent ones and curvy ones don’t work well

[lost kernel]

Mine work well but sometimes you have to find some tricks 🤣

[woven drift]

any ideas or suggestions?

[tropic vapor]

how many blocks is ur resident service from entrance @woven drift

[woven drift]

14

[tropic vapor]

oh that one more than me, so just do a little branch off thing and idk for the rest lol, maybe put villagers in an arch at the top?

[arctic temple]

What else could i add to this area? I want to keep a generally consistent theme

[woven drift]

ok!!! ill see what i can do :_

[lost kernel]

I dont know If an other color of blanket would be better

[tranquil carbon]

What else should I add here?

[tropic vapor]

@arctic temple maybe put a diy workstation

@tranquil carbon add some spiky fencing

[tranquil carbon]

👍

[swift palm]

@lost kernel could try tan colored blanket

[lost kernel]

@swift palm ty i will search!

[arctic temple]

@tropic vapor omg i never would’ve thought about that! Thank you :3c

[swift palm]

My new house spot

[devout elk]

Wow

[sly mica]

my map a week apart

[restive fern]

Finally managed to make my island 5 star. What do you guys think about the layout?

[sly mica]

how-
the patience you must’ve had

[restive fern]

Lol it took me over 200 hours or something to finally make it to 5 star🙄

But 100% worth it

[fringe heron]

your map looks nice but I like focusing on how your island really looks! 😄

Curious to see how it all looks in-game!

[restive fern]

I can send you the dodo code if you want to visit?

[sly mica]

i could never. i dont like terraforming much so i didnt change the overall layout. congrats on urs though it certainly looks like a 5 star map 👌

[fringe heron]

Oh I meant screenshots. lol

[restive fern]

Oh lol. I mean i can show you some areas then

[fringe heron]

Sure!

[restive fern]

These are some areas that i am kinda proud of lol

[sly mica]

i really like that fountain area!

[restive fern]

Thank you! Its the entrance of my island which leads to several areas on my island

[fringe heron]

That looks pretty!

Especially the 3rd one, I'm a sucker for natural-looking areas. lol

[restive fern]

Lol the campsite was the difficult one. I really had to look at other peoples campsites just to get some sort of inspiration😅

[tropic vapor]

this game makes it so easy to be so proud of putting down foundation and like two furniture and i love it :3

[restive fern]

Factsss

[fringe heron]

You should be proud of your own island, it is your home. hehe.

[tropic vapor]

that u can never.. leave...

[fringe heron]

unless you get a second switch

[restive fern]

Lmao i wish

I feel like i would change a lot if i had a 2nd switch

[woven drift]

guys I need some island inspoooooo

[worn latch]

@woven drift anything in particular you’re after inspiration for?

[fringe heron]

oooh, same!

If I had a second switch, I'll just bring some of my new leaf villagers to this island.
The current one I have is meant to be a little retirement home for villagers. lol

[sly mica]

hhh i just moved my house so i have this huge empty space and no ideas

[tropic vapor]

@sly mica happened to me too ): can we see the area?

[woven drift]

@worn latch just searching for some Lay-out and Island inspooooo

[sly mica]

its not very big hhhh

[restive fern]

I mean if i had a 2nd switch i would probably have villagers that are cute and actually have some good potential instead of only grabbing the popular ones.

@sly mica is there a specific idea you have that you want to build in that area?

[tropic vapor]

go ahead and clear up the river if u wanna extend it !@sly mica it’s kinda an awkward shape

[worn latch]

@sly mica I had an empty space near my house and did this with it, if this helps at all

[sly mica]

hmm no specific ideas in mind.

[worn latch]

Maybe use it as a cafe if you haven’t done one already, having the river flow behind it would look quite nice

[fringe heron]

I wanted to suggest a post office or newspaper area, but I'm not sure if that's gonna fill up a lot of space.

plus i dunno if you're following a theme or doing your own thing lol

[restive fern]

I like what you have done there @worn latch its super cute and i like the vibe

[woven drift]

Does anyone have a code for stone tablets on the ground?

[tropic vapor]

guys look what isabelle did

[sly mica]

i just add cool areas theres no real theme to my island lol thanks for the help though. i think ill do that cafe idea

[fringe heron]

Np, lol

[woven drift]

My island map is suffering cis I need to move rivers around but its so hard getting the edges baha

[restive fern]

Could you show us some images?

[sly mica]

i actually moved my house here and did this weird water thingy

[fringe heron]

also I wanted to ask for help earlier, mostly involving which path to use for my port.

One of the paths would have been one that I used before for Plucky's bar at the beach.

[runic river]

my rivermouths don’t match up with my resident services😞

[worn latch]

@woven drift have you used the island designer app? Because if so that may help with moving them all as you can do each little block / space first so you know where the rounded ones will go

[restive fern]

That looks great @sly mica

[fringe heron]

I think there's also a tutorial of how you can make your rivers look in the pins, not 100% sure tho

[sly mica]

thanks. ive added like 4 areas in the past two days ahsjdkd i get confused walking around my own island now

[runic river]

i was tryna make the main area symmetrical ish but the left side is 16 by 26, and the right side is 14 by 26

is there anything i can do

[terse vale]

My entrance now

[worn latch]

@terse vale it looks good! What are you planning on putting in the left area? If you are going to put stuff there that is

[sly mica]

oh :0 what fencing is that?

[terse vale]

Barbed wire

What do you mean @worn latch

[fringe heron]

Alright so,
I'm torn between which path I should use. One seems grittier than the other + its being used elsewhere too.

If I don't use the other path, I'll have more Pattern space but it looks so good. ouuuff.

[runic river]

i was tryna make the main area symmetrical ish but the left side is 16 by 26, and the right side is 14 by 26

[worn latch]

@terse vale the area with the red lantern, you could fill it with flowers

[fringe heron]

lemme send the other pic. (discord >:T)

[terse vale]

Ok

[sly mica]

@fringe heron the second path looks really nice :>

[fringe heron]

Oh yeah, I know.
The reason why I'm so torn between the two is because I only have 6 patterns left. If I take out the 2nd one from my patterns, I'll get 8 spaces left.

[gloomy summit]

The red circled place is going to be the entrance for the starry park I’ll make, should I make it on the ground floor and add a bridge, or should I make it on the 2nd level and add an incline?

[sly mica]

maybe go for an incline?

[restive fern]

I would make it a 2nd floor with an incline. I really like that lol

[bold mirage]

Castle progress

[tidal hemlock]

could anyone come to my island and give me advice?

[worn latch]

Just finished my entrance 🙂

[merry hare]

we've got our dispensary up n running 😛

[limber ginkgo]

Beau's moving out 😭

[pine ridge]

What should I put here?

[terse vale]

My island so far

[tropic vapor]

@pine ridge cafe or sport field or school it’s the perfect vertical piece so do something vertical

[pine ridge]

@tropic vapor oooo a sport field

[tropic vapor]

@pine ridge u wanna see mine for inspo

[pine ridge]

@tropic vapor sure

[vestal helm]

Hello. I’ve recently been having a ton of trouble and frustration with my island. I’m not sure what aesthetic I want to go with, and I feel kind of annoyed at what I currently have. I’m not sure what changes I need to make to improve my island. I’d love it if anyone could give me some pointers or advice on what to do next?

TL;DR, I’m unhappy with my current island and would like some advice.

Here’s pictures, too.

[pine ridge]

That’s nice

[storm sequoia]

Is this a good layout? Im not done, this is just the beginning!

[tropic vapor]

@vestal helm wym? it looks great! u should extend off this rather than restart

[runic river]

what do you guys think of my entrance

[vestal helm]

@tropic vapor Idk... I feel like my island seems barren to me and I can’t think of much to add. Is there anything specific you liked about the island that I could continue to add?

[sly mica]

@runic river
:0 that entrance looks really cute

[runic river]

@vestal helm it kinda looks like you could go for a modern in the front and natural in the back

[runic river]

@sly mica thx!

[vestal helm]

I like that idea. I’m kind of confused as to what to do to make it modern, though. @runic river

[woven drift]

That's what I want ^^^but I can't get the rivers right

[runic river]

@vestal helm you could add utility poles, and street lamps

[tropic vapor]

this my park attached to my school

[vestal helm]

Ah, good idea. What kind of path would you recommend? @runic river

[atomic quest]

well since your island's name is shinra, you should recreate midgar

[vestal helm]

Idk if I could do that but I like the idea!

[outer onyx]

Here's my garden! Just want some feedback and criticism :)

[runic river]

@vestal helm you could go for any path but if you want like a more modern, like city path, they have street paths

[earnest galleon]

can someone come and critic my island?

[runic river]

@outer onyx that looks amazing😳

[silent plover]

my entrance!!

[vestal helm]

@outer onyx Wow, it’s really nice!

[modest forum]

Dose anyone have Stitches?

[outer onyx]

Thanks! Planning to change the decoration for each season, as we're in summer it's full of plants!

@modest forum #villager-trade

[earnest galleon]

@modest forum #villager-trade

[outer onyx]

Pretty cute @silent plover

[atomic quest]

@vestal helm it's ambitious but if you can do that omg :0 lots of servers to create the nuclear reactors and slums surrounding it

[modest forum]

@earnest galleon that’s no longer a server
