raven granite
#

@vital tundra it’s the log round table, if you don’t have the diy i have a couple others that i’m not using atm if you want to come grab one?

vital tundra
#

soft belfry

any ideas on a beach front? i hate the hedges :/ should i terraform? and for the second pic would a bridge look nice? between the cliffs and connected to the waterfall pond

wispy tiger

primal hatch
soft belfry

wispy tiger
#

@leaden quest you could do a riverside cafe or also a picnic area!

sudden turtle

night rock

What should I build near the jocks? I have a flower garden for the peppy and a zen waterfall for cranky

south vale
#

any museum terraforming ideas?

gaunt knoll
#

There is sports equipment! You could make a gym :)

#

For the jocks, I mean

wispy tiger
#

@charred grove thank you so much!! Yours looked amazing also!!

agile crescent
#

Has anyone used iron fencing around Nook's/Able Sisters? Trying to decide what kind of bridge I want to put directly next to Nook's

woeful lichen
rich tree
#

It’s nothing special but I tried decorating my nooks cranny a lil bit

leaden quest
#

Does anybody know what this fence is ? If so if anybody had them im willing to pay for sum

rich tree
#

It’s the corral fence!

leaden quest

Okay thank you some much!

glad notch

Is this okay? I’m trying to make my island look better and I’m giving Queen Julia her own little plot

wispy tiger
#

@glad notch love it!!! 💕

glad notch
#

catsquish thanks!

blissful schooner
magic fulcrum
#

@blissful schooner maybe a custom flooring?

blissful schooner
#

I was thinking of doing pink tiles!

golden nest
blissful schooner
#

Does it work so far though?

magic fulcrum
#

ADORABLE!!!!

wispy tiger
#

Ooo yess I think that some pink flooring would look amazing and some more pink flowers!

#

@golden nest so cute!!!

obtuse umbra
#

Definitely some pink Roses for Rosie

golden nest
#

Ok I’ll keep it then! Ty both boneswavehearts

tight badge
#

I was thinking of putting my museum here but it wont fit, might take down the area below it. Anywhere else i can put?

blissful schooner
#

Anyway I love maple’s library so far, even if it doesn’t make sense in the rain

#

@tight badge Id try around C-D4 ish

tight badge
#

I’ll see if it can fit, i never really realise how small islands are

scenic jacinth
#

anyone got a pirate hidden beach?

azure frigate
#

I need inspo for my fairycore island- if anyone has any feel free to dm me them!!

woven drift
#

@tight badge try to expand the place from the sides and back, its really a good place for a museum

night rock
#

What should I make for my smug characters?

golden nest
#

@night rock for my two smug villagers I did a private beach (marshal) and am about to do a little art display (Raymond)

night rock
#

I was thinking for the area for my smug was a lake or a beach

golden nest
#

I can show you pics of the private beach if you’d like 😄 @night rock

night rock
#

Yes please

golden nest
#

Ok lemme find em really quick

languid cargo
night rock
#

Hmm okay I'll try and make a private beach not sure how but I can try...

stark cobalt
#

@golden nest do you have the code for that path? that’s something i’ve been looking for cause i’m using the original one rn

golden nest
#

Yeah I think so!

#

Ohhh wait no that’s not the right one omg

stark cobalt
#

LMAO i was like 😳 that’s the original

golden nest
#

Hmm idk if I can find it 😳

stark cobalt
#

aw really? :((

#

bummer, okay thanks anyways

misty marten
#

So I miscalculated the space I need availible and im trying to place a staircase which makes me have to shave off 2 spaces. So should I curve my path around the stairs like this or place the stairs horizontally?

golden nest
#

I’ll try to find it rq but I doubt I can 😭😭

stark cobalt
#

can you tell me what’s it called? @golden nest

#

i could be able to find it that way just give me the name of one of the designs

golden nest
#

Forest trail “UP L” @stark cobalt

night rock
#

How can I make the private beach?

stark cobalt
#

found it :))

golden nest
#

Hmm well I have something like this so that helps to make it more private. If you happen to have a small nook like this it would really help create the secluded vibe you’re looking for @night rock

#

Omg yay! @stark cobalt I’m so glad you found it

#

Sorry I couldn’t be of much help 😥

stark cobalt
#

i know i’m so glad they have that criteria search option now 😭

golden nest
night rock
#

Ugh still don't know what to do for my jocks Couse like I don't want to make a gym...

golden nest
#

Which jock is it? I’ve got Teddy (an orange bear) and I’m planning to make an orange farm for his yard!

night rock
#

I've got axel the elephant

golden nest
#

He is so cute omg

#

Hmm I dunno what you’d do for him other than a gym lol

misty marten
#

Hes an elephant so maybe a little pond

golden nest
#

A little elephant shaped pond omg

night rock
misty marten
#

True I guess. Ive been basing the yards off my villagers and not the peraonalitys so in that case I have no idea lol

golden nest
#

Well I dunno then bud. Also that spot in the top left would be perfect for a private beach!

misty marten
#

Hey a pond could be jock though... Swimming is excercise lol

golden nest
#

Fr fr^

night rock
#

But how would I even make it jock

golden nest
#

You could give him a house on the beach with a surf shop? I dunno

night rock
#

So jocks on the beach and then where do smugs go?

grizzled egret
#

i put my jock next to my normal and snooty i didn’t make the personality have to be some where

#

like their yards are what can really define them

night rock
#

Nah I'm doing areas like normals will be near a forest and peppy near flower garden

golden nest
#

Yeah I personally didn’t theme my villagers after their personalities. Like for Bones who always talks about bugs, I gave him a little bug center

#

Hmm how about you give the jock a beachfront house with a surf shop and then the smugs can have a little secluded area like this??

#

It doesn’t have to be a farm I’m just saying a little secluded area boneswavehearts

#

Y’all omg my dog is dreaming and growling in his sleep I can’t. Sorry that’s off topic but like... cmon

tranquil mountain
#

does anyone have cottagecore marketplace pics

night rock
#

My bro says the I can have jocks on the beach cause surfing isn't a jock thing

golden nest
#

Surfing.. isn’t a jock thing?? But surfing is a sport..

night rock
#

Apparently jocks don't go surfing

tranquil mountain
#

and @night rock keep in mind you don’t have to decorate based on personality unless you want to. i prefer to decorate based on what their house looks like / what they look like, since some of the personalities can get a little bland

sly aurora
#

no villagers technically go surfing

golden nest
#

I-

night rock
#

@tranquil mountain I want to

sly aurora
#

Then put him on the beach with a surfboard and stuff like that

golden nest
#

Alright well I’ve provided all the help I can. Sorry.

sly aurora
#

...or you could make him a gym since you don’t like that jocks can’t actually surf...

tranquil mountain
#

yeah all jocks care about is the gym so unfortunately it’s limited there. maybe you could do a hiking trail or something? since they like to be outside

golden nest
#

There really aren’t many options other than a gym so something is gonna have to work 😅 ^as far as decorating to fit personality

sly aurora
#

Yeah

night rock
#

Maybe, I'll look at types of gyms that don't look like they are in a town or city

sly aurora
#

That’s why I don’t have a jock villager 😂 all they talk about is... working out

tranquil mountain
#

yeah i had to get rid of my jock because i was tired of him talking about running marathons and literally nothing else

golden nest
#

Understandable lmao

#

I just want to get all the dialogue since it can be repetitive 😅

sly aurora
#

I’ve had three jocks in the past though 😳

tranquil mountain
#

Rudy and teddy are the only jocks I’d consider but that bland personality is such a turn off

sly aurora
#

But now I have 4 normal, 3 lazy, 2 smug and a cranky 😅😅

golden nest
#

I’ve got 2 normal, 2 smug, and then 1 of everything else 😚

tardy pebble
#

Tbh, I put mountain bikes by scoot’s house to lead him to the path from his house to the camping site I set up besides the actual campsite that NPCs appear in, which his behind his house

sly aurora
#

I had Scoot as a dreamie once but he doesn’t fit the vibe of my island, I have all like grey, brown and white villagers... and then he’s bright green

tranquil mountain
#

I have 3 normal, 1 smug, 2 peppy, 2 snooty, and 2 lazy. lol

night rock
#

I GOT THE IDEA!!! I can make a basketball court

golden nest
#

Very nice. Glad you found something you liked 😅

night rock
#

Thank you all for the help

celest turret
sly aurora
#

Damn

#

That looks 👌🔥

golden nest
#

That’s crazy

#

Heyyy, I want to make my island kind of like some sort of Japanese Zen garden or cherry blossom theme. I’ve gotten.. well, nowhere. I just have no clue where to start. Any tips?

dreamy river

does Sherb sell sherbert too?

willow bloom
#

Anyone have garden area in front yard or garden area for inspo? 😊

dreamy river
willow bloom
#

That look cute! 😄 I am after like gardening kind of area >.<

night rock
still summit
#

Super late to the topic but (dialogues) that’s why derpy looking jock villagers work so well when that contrast with their muscle talk like dom and roald

limber ginkgo
#

The funny thing about Dom too is he's got the play hobby so he doesn't lift as often as other jocks

woven drift
#

My version of Okita’s grave is finished. Public access is still not allowed just like irl😣 and I am still a weeb for this.

#

Opinions on bridges anyone? My island’s an overgrown rainforest c: I think the suspension bridge fits better? But I like the log bridge too 😭

paper coyote
#

@woven drift suspension bridge!

#

They go with the log stakes better IMO

fossil ice
#

Another vote for suspension bridge

merry robin
#

i think suspension bridge looks nice too

noble juniper
#

@woven drift awe the suspension bridge looks so woodland like and foresty! If that's the vibe you're going for, definitely go with that one 🙂 ❤️

woven drift
#

I made a bus stop today also my theme is city theme do you guys think it’s weird my island is named Milky Way if it’s a city themed?

paper coyote
#

My island is city theme too and named Elsweyr lol. There’s nothing skyrim about my island either 🤷🏻‍♀️

woven drift
#

You think that’s fine?

paper coyote
#

I wish we can change our island name so bad

#

I think yours is fine!

grim halo
woven drift
#

Any suggestions? I really just don’t know what to build here

cosmic flax
tardy pebble
#

I wish I could’ve renamed mine from wolf coven to Coney Island, cause of the boardwalk I made and me living in NY and there’s a statue of Liberty...BUT I kinda vining the gore themes that I’ve been watching tours of on YouTube...

woven drift
#

@tardy pebble is that weird tho?

paper coyote
#

Wolf coven sounds way cooler

tardy pebble
#

Which? Wolf Coven? No

woven drift
#

I meant Milky Way for a city island

tardy pebble
#

I don’t think Milky Way is weird

woven drift
#

Any body have some park ideas I can look at?

tardy pebble
#

Err sure one sec

woven drift
#

went with the suspension bridge! thank you @paper coyote @fossil ice @merry robin @noble juniper 🥰

tardy pebble
#

@woven drift

#

Thanks 😊

#

No problem I had it one square longer, but made it one shorter for my ramp for cliff ramping around it. Lol

limber ginkgo
#

@woven drift dw my island is called density because of a stupid inside joke

sturdy ore
#

Can anyone send me a picture of some neighborhood areas? I'm currently working on mine and struggling.

@static patrol CUTEEE

smoky cove
#

Finally reset my island and I kept trying til I got a map I wanted. Now let's see how long before I go crazy..wanted a challenge so I got double south river(it doesn't seem to be a popular map).

stark cobalt
#

i have a double south river map haha

#

i have to say i do regret it tho it’s a little awkward to worth with

woven drift
#

double south river here as well and it.is.a.struggle omfg

gentle oasis
#

hiii can someone send me entrance ideas for close and uneven residential services

#

tips on how to deal w a close and uncentered residential services!! i need some inspo (pls dm me photos)

foggy basin
#

can any of you cottagecore gays and girls show me how you did cafes/beaches? it'd be greatly appreciated!

hearty arch
#

This is mine for example...my residential services aren’t close to it but it’s uneven

stable quarry
#

hi everyone, where should i put my villager houses?l currently have them all behind the resident servs but looks kinda awful. any help?

stark cobalt
#

@stable quarry maybe the top left? if you’re gonna keep them all in one residential area

stable quarry
#

good idea!

woven drift
#

After "completing" my map I finally decided to personalize the surrounding area of each house xD

brittle venture
woven drift
#

@brittle venture you can he very proud of yourself! Love the natural look!

brittle venture
woven drift
#

WOAHHH. Very neat map too!!

brittle venture
#

thank you! my island is totally finished, so you can visit it if you want too, i already promoted it in the #dream-addresses🌜

woven drift
brittle venture
#

AH I ALREADY DID!

woven drift
#

!

#

I've only visited 3 dream addresses you're gonna be my 4th!

brittle venture
#

It's a huge work of decoration and terraforming, but for my own personal taste, soma areas are too cluttered for me

woven drift
#

Hehe its cluttercore after all

brittle venture
#

OH i didn0't know it existed hahaha well, it's not my taste, but i had to give you props for the amount of work and terrforming, congrats!

woven drift
#

No I made it up on the spot hahaahahaha

brittle venture
#

This aethetic makes me kinda nervious, that's why i personally prefer more open areas, but again, congrats because it's a looooot of work!

woven drift
#

I'm very honoured to have been visited by you nonetheless

brittle venture
#

why by me? lmao

woven drift
#

Oh thank you for acknowledging that! Haha I have a bit of massive adhd so it kinda reflects my chaos! Oh because you took the time to carefully lay out your thoughts and you remembered it somehow

#

:O which is an honour!

brittle venture
#

hahaha well, i visited a lot if islands the other day and i took time to write down what i liked and how the island was overall so my friends could decide what island to visit

boreal geode
brittle venture
#

try to plant some weeds or flowers, and add some designs like sand drawings, or even a rug design

woven drift
brittle venture
#

it could be amasing @woven drift !

woven drift
#

The flowers I meant!

#

Yayyyy I'd like to show that little bit of support haha. Thank yo

brittle venture
#

Well, speaking of rainbow -

woven drift
#

May I leave you a message so I remember to visit you later?

brittle venture
#

Sure, leave me a message don't worry

woven drift
#

OY MY GOD. What a piece of art lmao I've been outdone

#

My eyes ___, so colorful

brittle venture
woven drift
#

AMPS COME IN RAINBOW COLORS TOO. Yellow blue pink and orange?

brittle venture
woven drift
#

If you manage to find space I'd fit in amps!!@ they can be decorated further to include patterns

brittle venture
#

AMPS COME IN RAINBOW COLORS TOO. Yellow blue pink and orange?
@woven drift No, just white, black, silver, brown, pink and orange

woven drift
#

NO BLUE? NO YELLOW? Huhhh

brittle venture
#

I don't think so - or at least i don't remember it

woven drift
#

What a shame

brittle venture
woven drift
boreal geode
#

amps come in black,white,orange,brown,blue,red,pink

woven drift
#

You and me both! Flower spam!

#

Orange blue red pink has potential then.

brittle venture
#

Oh, seal, one of the things that make ne nervous of your island, is that it was on nighttime and i got lost a lot, maybe if it was on daytime or at 5am with the green light, it could improve a lot and be less claustrophobic? But that's my opinion

woven drift
#

OHHHH I understand now. Yeah I was experimenting with lighting. I wanted to show off the expensive arse tree lamps I bought. But I'll try it during the day too

chrome acorn
#

Wow i love the colour

woven drift
chrome acorn
#

Especially that entrance and music band

woven drift
#

I can see how this area in the dark would make you get lost

brittle venture
#

day is more wide in general, so it can give a better look, also, your promo was only daylight hahaha

#

Especially that entrance and music band
@chrome acorn

Ah you mean me? thank you! I work with colors so I tried to do color codes areas

woven drift
solid current
#

I’m going to quickly work on my village and then I’ll send a photo

woven drift
#

Without the lights this forest is nothing but scrap :(

empty belfry
#

I don't have ac atm :c

brittle venture
#

Without the light this forest is nothing but scrap :(
@woven drift add some flowers or leaves design at the floor, and even weeds to play with textures, it will improve

woven drift
#

I actually just did! From May! Who made the leaf patterns:

brittle venture
woven drift
#

I only recently got into custom patterns

solid current
#

I love the custom patterns

woven drift
#

Looks okay in browd day light?

solid current
#

It looks good

brittle venture
#

i think it needs more texture on the floor, but it looks good

woven drift
#

Thank you!

brittle venture
#

try to ad some dark dirt and then plant some flowers in it

#

the items like little lights, look better if they're in a small table or a wooden bench

cosmic flax
#

i have a big empty space, what should i do for it?

brittle venture
#

Idk, what areas do you already have? @cosmic flax

woven drift
#

Hmm I was going for botw inspired fairy fountain so the little stools or tables wouldnt really work. I used to have a cemetery though. You mean dirt like this? @brittle venture

brittle venture
#

yes, dirt like this

cosmic flax
#

nothing, really -
i’m just not sure what to do with it. it’s somewhere at the front, but not really if that makes any sense

brittle venture
#

an scenario, music festival like?

woven drift
#

What kinda theme are you looking for? @cosmic flax

cosmic flax
#

foresty

brittle venture
#

uhmm maybe a bee hive farm?

cosmic flax
#

uh my map is nasty right now sooo 👁👄👁

brittle venture
woven drift
cosmic flax
#

omg yes that’d be cute

woven drift
cosmic flax
#

ok, ty both!!!

woven drift
#

The small heart will definitely fit. Large heart requires some improvisation

brittle venture
#

i don't know what you mean @woven drift

woven drift
#

@brittle venture regarding?

#

I just suggested a (double)heart lake! Which can be decorated with trees

brittle venture
#

the hearts OH you were talking okay okay i now get it sorry

woven drift
#

Oh no problem haha

brittle venture
#

engish is not my 1st language so sometimes i mess it up hahaha

woven drift
#

Oh my god your english is fine! It is my 3rd language so I may be in the wrong!

brittle venture
#

mint too hahhaha

cosmic flax
#

this is what i did for my area here, what do you think?
i’m currently waiting for my yellow mums to grow so i can get those mum cushion thingys

I’ll send a photo of my village tomorrow because I just ruined all my flowers from a bee attack.

rancid python
#

i've completed a small area in front of my resident services!! it isn't the best but it took me a while and i kind of like it qwq (ignore the hamster cage in the back,, i placed it there to make space in my inventory and forgot to take it out when taking the photo-)

untold junco
#

I need inspo for close resident services please!

rich ivy
vernal oxide
#

@rich ivy if you need ideas for the beach maybe you might like some of these!

#

@untold junco if you use the top right search bar and type in “in:island-layouts has: image: entrance” you’ll see what others have done! Usually people use a diagonal bridge, cliffs and trees to make the RS seem farther

nova geyser
#

Hi making my entence but I dont know witch flowers/bushes/items to put on the cliffs need help pls

night fjord
#

What's the theme?

nova geyser
#

Idk I got severals theme ideas for some areas

mint osprey
#

Hm, I need help with my island layout. I’ve recently basically cleared the entire island to start anew and I have my entrance done, but unsure of where to go from there :’)

rich ivy
azure sparrow
#

@mint osprey what theme do you want you island to have

woven drift
#

Hey guys I'm struggling with making new gardens to personalize them to each villager (something I havent done despite 1.1k hours of playing xD) how is Marshall's?

azure sparrow
#

@woven drift like it! I think it fits Marshall's personality.

mental plank
mint osprey
#

@azure sparrow I honestly don’t know. You see, my entrance has kind of a blue and white type of theme given the blue crescent moon chairs, flowers and waterfalls, with statues etc

woven drift
#

Not too flowery for marshal? Maybe thsts somethng he would like after all haha

azure sparrow
#

huh well then you should use water in your design, sneaking in lakes and waterfalls where you can, @mint osprey

#

and customize your furniture to look blue and white

mint osprey
#

@azure sparrow Alrighty thx

azure sparrow
#

@mental plank some flowers of multiple colours and types would suit that garden well

mental plank
#

Here’s the bottom half, I currently have purple windflowers, white cosmos, and some green mums that I’m waiting to spawn more of

azure sparrow
#

huh

#

maybe some hyacinths or lilies; even the original colors of those would be good

mental plank
#

I know I’m definitely gonna put some bushes around the edges like a sort of fence but I’m torn between purple hydrangea or white azalea

azure sparrow
#

I prefer the looks of the hydrangea even when it isnt flowering

#

but I love azaleas too

mental plank
#

The hydrangea would match but I’m worried it might be too much purple idk

sturdy ore
#

Try to add a bit more of the other colours maybe? It might even out the amount of purple then

azure sparrow
#

if you can get blue hydrangea that would look good too

fossil fog
#

has any1 pictures of a museum entrance?

storm bluff
#

@fossil fog here’s my museum entrance! it isnt as grand as others though

azure sparrow
#

not on me, but I have a stone path leading up to the entrance which has some lanterns and flowers

#

no trees, just a piazza

woven drift
#

What's a really nice 2x2 item? Any theme

#

I'm removing soo many bushes and flowers to make space for more interesting things!

#

It's too big to take a whole shot though ;-;

elfin zephyr
#

Agh I’m stuck 😫 does anybody know of any large structures (such as the wooden bookshelf) that help with forming buildings? I’m building a castle, and none of the wooden bookshelf colors match the grey tones I got going on. I just need it sort of on the end here to even things out

zenith roost
#

maybe some stalls that are customized to be white?

woven drift
#

@elfin zephyr I've seen people use silos and lighthouses

#

And cliffs with record boxes customized as well as simple panels

fossil fog
#

@woven drift ty this looks sick

elfin zephyr
#

Thanks for the suggestions!! I’ll keep experimenting. Yeah, I love the silos! This is what one half of it currently looks like. As you can see, the way I have it spaced out, there’s just like an awkward gap where the “roof” fencing breaks off and the last simple panel hangs over (if that makes any sense).

abstract kelp
#

@elfin zephyr I'm trying to look now but I don't think anything is really as thick as the bookcase! Jail bars are the same height so maybe you can try those? or lining up some black iron closets if you don't mind using black~ but i'll let you know if I find anything else

elfin zephyr
#

I currently have the white bookshelf there and I think it looks fine....if it came in grey, lol. Or even black!

#

@abstract kelp those are actually great suggestions!! Ooh okay I have a lot of stuff to try

abstract kelp
#

@elfin zephyr If you think black matches with everything else then you can try the antique wardrobe too! It's really bulky but yeah test them out and see how you like it! peanutwoweyes

elfin zephyr
#

Thanks!! Yeah black is better than nothing, lol, tho grey would be best. I’ll see how the jail bars work out 😱

charred grove
soft holly
woven drift
#

@charred grove is there a canal upstream from the waterfall?

#

If so, not weird at all. I guess water needs to come from somewhere (wide enough) to generate the water that comes falling down

charred grove
#

there's no canal isathink it kinda starts just on the edge of that cliff up there with the tree, then downstream and down another cliff @woven drift

hallow void
#

Hey can anyone show me their able sisters outdoor area? I have like a 4x5 area right next to the store I wanna do like an outdoor display with but I'm not creative

Hmmm well I think it looks fine either way! @charred grove you are definitely ready to start decorating the areas! Maybe stone bridge? I use only zen and some stone ones. Stone may work everywhere!

#

The first pic is directly below able's and it's from the days when I just planted flowers wherever I didnt know what to do yet

#

Oooh that's cute. I do have a huge flower field in front of my ables

Does anyone have picture of their or any diagonal bridges? I really want to put one on my island but I don't have an ideas for where I can put it

@woven drift thank you! i'm going for the wood ones but still deciding between suspension or wooden bridge cocoderpysmile

Guys what do you usually do at the back of the cliff? I built my nook and ables on a cliff near my residence and I’m not sure what to do at the back of it coz it can’t be fully seen in screen or atleast for me 🤔🤔

granite lagoon
night fjord
#

Pretty good already honestly. I don't know how much you like clutter, but there could be more added. Maybe something by that pond on the right, and something next to that bush at the back

granite lagoon
#

i’d love to add more to it, i’m going for a natural theme and i feel like i keep kinda just reusing the same items so i ran out of ideas

manic sigil
#

@granite lagoon add some leaf piles between the circles! and some random custom designs (leaves, flowers, sparkles etc.)

#

also more trees i think

granite lagoon
#

leaf piles would be cute! i’d love to add more trees but the area is pretty limited, i’ll see if i can squeeze some in tho! thanks everyone (:

ok I think I’ve fixed the border over here but how do I extend the plaza down to the beach without it looking weird

soft holly
#

anyone have any ideas for like a fish shop?

wispy tiger
#

@gloomy atlas maybe put a arch!

brittle venture
#

Put fish figures and some fishing rods

gloomy atlas
#

where would I put it tho

brittle venture
#

The plaza is the one with wooden floor? Then why do you have the lighter floor instead?

wispy tiger
soft holly
#

Ooo

gloomy atlas
#

my plaza has a brick floor

brittle venture
#

If you want to extend it, you can get a nice wooden floor pattern or just come log fences and do a small entrance to the beach

#

Oh shoot I thought it was wood hahahaha

wispy tiger
#

@gloomy atlas in between the light polls? I’m not sure if it would fit though. Just an idea!

brittle venture
#

Then the same, get some brick patterns with transparency and make it go to the beach by making an entrance

gloomy atlas
#

ahh

brittle venture
#

And a tip, make the entrance be the large part between the lamps, it's more natural this way

#

Just add some log fences or wood sticks near that place and put some decoration

gloomy atlas
#

when I walk on the brick pattern, will it play the sound effects for when I’m walking on a hard surface

brittle venture
#

No, it will play the design pattern sound

gloomy atlas
#

what’s that sound like

brittle venture
#

Just try it yourself I mean, put some pattern in the floor and walk hahaha

If you think I should do city theme hit🖤If cottage core hit🤍
@daring hatch

Why not a city theme with some cottage areas?? The mix of Cory and nature has worked pretty well in my island

#

Like, the villager houses with a cottage touch and then forests with huge cottage aesthetic, but in the residence service area and ships, be like a city look

daring hatch
#

Would cottagecore look good for this type of city theme

brittle venture
#

Yes sure

wispy tiger
#

@daring hatch yes definitely! I like what @brittle venture said about doing cottagecore in the foresty parts 🙂

brittle venture
#

A nice touch of city look and the cottage areas is always great and dynamic. For me, sometimes islands with cottage core all the time or city as esthetics all the time are kinda boring

#

Good islands have a nice balance between nature and city/town

daring hatch
#

Ok tysm I’m going have to add some cottage core areas!☺️☺️

brittle venture
#

Nice! Just be sure to make a nice transition between these areas, so is not like two separated islands

wispy tiger
#

Yay!! Let us know if you need any help on anything. I’m excited to see how your island turns out!!

brittle venture
#

Also, think about doing an entrance, sometimes it adds more personality rather than coming into the island and directly being at the shopping area

#

Take a look at some islands in the #dream-addresses🌜 chat, some of them have great looks and entrances. Let me share with you the best islands I visited recently that can help you take inspiration

daring hatch
#

If I were gonna do an entrance I would want flowers in the beginning I just don’t know where else to put my shops

brittle venture
#

Near the residence service? All the shops and things at the same place?

#

They don't have to be spred out if you're looking for a city look

#

If you want inspirarion, here you have my island, and even more islands for you to take inspiration. The tip left picture is my entrance, if you go right, you go to the residence services and shops

#

Nice islands so you can get inspiration:

daring hatch
#

Does anyone have like stone paths that kinda match the one that you get when kk come to you island I just need the code

brittle venture
#

I think they can have an aesthetic that you're looking for, except maybe Malapascua, but that island have a very cool wntrance

daring hatch
#

Tysm for helping me

#

Ah, you mean the terraforming path? Well youll have to beat the game if you want the terraforming options

@vernal oxide have you tried using wedding fence? those look nice too lol

@gentle acorn I did. It covered it up a lot lol

ah... i wasnt sure how itll look tbh. i have the diy, but never got to use it to see them in person

@vernal oxide as in, it made it look more narrow? They still look fancier though

vernal oxide

@gentle acorn @woven drift i meant to say covered lol but yeah I didn’t like how it looked. I feel like with the rope fencing it gives it a more museum-ish feel. Where it’s like look but don’t touch

@prisma gyro I did on my old switch as like a testing sort of thing. I planned them out with dirt pathing. I tried to make one to two spaces between each house

Pshh envy can I has your unbiased opinion on a new area of mine, my first attempt at a themed garden for a villager? @vernal oxide

Using dirt to plan 4x4 is much cheaper than going full in. @prisma gyro

@woven drift sure. Let’s see it

@vernal oxide True. That way the homes only have to be moved one at a time

@valid gate give like, 3-4 spaces in front and have it by a beach in bot left/right corner. put terraforming behind it and make waterfall, and surround that lil corner with water. put couple coconut trees by the front and add campfire, wood stools, etc with a radio and stuff. by the capsite, add barrels, lamps, turtles, etc. connect your campsite with a bridge

Move the entire cliff forward yes

#

You can move your 2nd pagoda on the right backwards but you can only moge your left pagoda towards

gentle acorn
#

and whats weird about terraforming in ac is you cant put real life physics/perspective to it. or it looks weird

#

sometimes

woven drift
#

I disagree I think it looks way weirder how your super tiny pond on the cliff generates so mcuh water downstream?

#

How can it start from where you started it?

gentle acorn
#

i have to change my entire island if that were the case

woven drift

You dont have to of course

Just make this area bigger. Invest dome space into the areas you feel ambitious about

gentle acorn
#

i think ac physics/perspective is hard to work with. and i like my island smol lol

fiery geyser
#

@woven drift i think it’s fine, a lot of people have tiny waterfalls on their islands generating rivers and stuff. it’s just aesthetic, doesn’t have to be realistic about how much water it would produce

The museum is the favorite part of my island. You're very welcome

#

And if you want to customize it to your own theme I can help!

vernal oxide
#

@plain forge thank you queen 🥺 (I’m at work all day lol) @vagrant cosmos if you want I can dm you my DA and you can visit!

cunning mantle
#

Anybody know a amazing city like layout?

gentle acorn
#

how do yall decorate your museum ughh i want it to be grand
@coarse drift mmk you want something grand?
put 3 spaces behind museum and terraform up behind it. then add 6 piece fossil behind it and then make that raised terraform go around the museum and make waterfall. then make 2 rows of gold roses and add fence. the waterfall goes down and goes behind your roses down in a straight line. then add a fountain in the middle with 2 of every flower mirroring it. then add sculptures, lights, benches around it.

cunning mantle
#

Wow jun that sounds amazing

prisma gyro
#

I would love to see any city/market areas - especially areas that have a more veritcal orientation

coarse drift
#

niceee omg ♥️♥️💕 tysm!

woven drift
#

@gentle acorn I mean must you use fossils? I used to have huge fossils but I just feel like it is overused at this point!

gentle acorn
#

itll take a huuuge spot. but if you want something grand, be bold!

woven drift
#

I had the deer one

gentle acorn
#

@gentle acorn I mean must you use fossils? I used to have huge fossils but I just feel like it is overused at this point!
@woven drift yeah tbh... because itll be just a deadspace. nothing shows behind a museum

#

and you wont be able to see it unless you look for it

woven drift
#

Took sooo much space for what it is worth. Ah yeah but you can make the space behind the museum be walkable

#

Like accessible. A little path that connects to the other parts of your island?

prisma gyro
#

I wish we could get more inclines and bridges... I could use maybe 10 inclines versus the 8 they allow us to have

woven drift
#

If you're gonna go all out place your fossils more in front!

#

Omg jun is my dearest friend here why am I always disagreeing with him. I hate me >:(

brave storm
#

How many inclines can we have? And how many bridges can we have?

woven drift
#

@gentle acorn I hate you too bai etc.

#

@brave storm 8 of each

brave storm
#

That's not bad

gentle acorn

#

I already used 4 inclines to make my museum entrance look fancy

ornate rover
#

How do I send videos here?

gentle acorn
#

so like, something like this.

vernal oxide
#

@coarse drift the second part of this video shows my museum! It’s decorated a bit different since this video but the layout is still the same!

ornate rover
#

I took a video of my museum for @coarse drift

woven drift
coarse drift
#

im just gonna use 2 inclines for my museum

vernal oxide
#

@ornate rover I took a video off my switch, sent it to either fb or twitter and then screen record with my iPhone. And then crop it and trim it

woven drift
#

I used 2 too!! @coarse drift

#

For anything grand I recommend using at least 1-2 for the museum

prisma gyro
#

For videos, I just have a second Twitter account that I send all my screenshots/videos to and link the upload tweet

coarse drift
#

holy crap that is suuper grand!! it looks great 😍😍 @vernal oxide

ornate rover
vernal oxide
#

@coarse drift thank you!! The museum and my entrance were the only places I kept when I tore down my whole island to redo it 💀

ornate rover
#

A little janky but hope it gives you some inspiration. The front bit is like a museum garden reception party area @coarse drift

prisma gyro
#

My museum isn't 100% done but I like where it's at for now

coarse drift
#

tysm for everyones ideas omfg 💕 now i realised i need to have a much larger space ffs its gonna take me hours lol

woven drift
#

i just finished doing my living room, how does it look (stalls are there to store my wood so my storage/pockets can be full more)?

storm bluff
woven drift
#

oh! sorry! (im sorry I forgot)

prisma gyro
#

My Late Night Library off to the side of my museum... which might also need edited to fill the space better

woven drift
#

@coarse drift can I share a video of my museum?

coarse drift
#

of course !! we’d all love to see it

inland oxide
#

I made a concert area for the cutie bubblegum sisters! Hope that one they I can actually catch them sing here LOL

coarse drift
#
  • i need inspos lol!
prisma gyro
#

That's so cute Peanut!

#

I love the different creative solutions people come up with... although I wish the framerate didn't lag so much the more you put down

woven drift
#

Very bad timing and weather but I tried I tried to capture my museum entrance which I cant do via pics. Ignore how it fails to align lmao @coarse drift

prisma gyro
#

Wow Seal it's lovely!

woven drift
#

Thank you!!!

coarse drift
#

tysm for the effort 😂😂♥️

woven drift
#

;___; yeah I did not really know how to upload it here sorry

prisma gyro
#

I feel like I have no idea what I'm doing the moment I see someone else's island lol

inland oxide
#

Museum entrance are so hard to design! Mine is still empty. It looks great

woven drift
#

Well I had 1.1k hours if not more to get a feel for it @prisma gyro

prisma gyro
#

I really like the bushes around the museum building. I may steal that idea 👀

woven drift
#

It's not stealing it is very much a feature of the game!! @prisma gyro go for it

tidal wyvern
prisma gyro
#

Haha I know. Most of my island is tweaked from other peoples' ideas and then tweaked for myself

woven drift
#

Wow I didnt know you could make the whole house be blue that's so lovely

inland oxide
#

Blue paradise

woven drift
#

@tidal wyvern it looks great!

inland oxide
#

I didnt know the house can be entirely blue either hahahha

woven drift
#

Blue andpurple are my favorite colours so I love this sooo much

prisma gyro
#

It's very blue, blue!

tidal wyvern
#

my islands name is “blue” anyways

inland oxide
#

Gotta love the mush lamp

woven drift
#

What the heck I want a 3rd house so I may steal this ahhaha and I've never really stolen something except for @storm bluff 's leaves with her permission

prisma gyro
#

My island's color scheme is pink, white, and gold. Although my library is very much not following that color scheme (yet haha)

silver sorrel
#

he's blue dabadeebadadow

tidal wyvern
#

for me it’s blue and white, but mostly blue because some of my villagers and their houses are blue and white 😀

prisma gyro
#

I recently realized I purged every yellow flower from my island and I have to borrow flowers from friends to make some DIYs lol

tidal wyvern
#

I don’t want flowers on my island, I’m too afraid for them to multiply when I’m not looking

prisma gyro
#

True - I had an entire platform covered in white mums for a while

#

it helps to put markings or paths on the ground around them to keep them contained

rich tree
#

I’ve posted this before, but thought I’d post again (for advice)! The area behind this is a based on kikis delivery service’s city which is full of black street lamps... should I replacemy white ones with black ones?

prisma gyro
#

I like the white ones, but I think it's up to how you feel. Very nice use of those columns, and I like the overall turquoise feel

rich tree
#

Oh thank you so much! Yeah I was wondering if it would make the areas more tied together? And haha those were a lot of snowflakes :’) I’m glad it was worth it 🥰

tidal wyvern
#

I can’t explain how much I want to steal that but it wouldn’t fit my scheme 👁️

prisma gyro
#

I need to get better are being creative with the panels. Everyone is using them so impressively

tidal wyvern
#

fr I only have one panel

rich tree
#

Aww I’m super flattered haha! My island is covered in panels so the lag is insane

eternal stream
#

Hey guys! Going through a hard time and decorating my island as a distraction! Would it be okay to share pictures of it?

prisma gyro
#

omg the lag sometimes is crazy

tidal wyvern
#

baloo I have a switch lite and I thought i was the only one lagging on it when I’m at very detailed islands

prisma gyro
#

@eternal stream you better share pictures or else!

eternal stream
#

Hehe, okay! :)

tidal wyvern
#

@woven drift I’m too broke for that anyways

rich tree
#

@tidal wyvern Omg it’s crazy on the switch too, I’m pretty sure for this whole section (behind too) I’ve used like minimum a 100 panels so when they lag and pop into existence I get sad :’)

tidal wyvern
#

my islands completely flat because I have no creativity, and it’s to prevent lag as well

eternal stream
tidal wyvern
#

I don’t make spots like those for my villagers 😀

eternal stream
#

I dont usually either but I had loads of space lol :)

tidal wyvern
#

daisies you have a grey lite and you can’t say otherwise

rich tree
#

@tidal wyvern hey I have no care for texture because my paths are missing and I only really use cliffs for illusions :’) maybe I’ll add some more natural studio ghibli sections

prisma gyro
#

Your island is looking very cozy Daisies

eternal stream
#

Daisies indeed has a grey lite and cannot say otherwise> daisies you have a grey lite and you can’t say otherwise

#

Woah I effed up that lol

@eternal stream I like how simple and naturey that is ♥️

Awwwh thank youuu :))) @rich tree

@slender vapor omg that’s gorgeous

you already know they grinded for those

#

the dedication tbh

The wedding set is soooo beautiful!

#

yea

#

Has anyone turned their museums into a dump? I’m sick and tired of its dimensions and had to tear down my old one that I put a lot of effort into 😡 so now I want to turn it into an abandoned wasteland 😅

tidal wyvern
#

I never even made a spot for mine lol

prisma gyro
#

I skipped the whole wedding event... Gonna have to go back and TT to June sometime

rich tree
#

@tidal wyvern Lol that’s alright I despise the museum so I wish I could delete it off my island 🙃

tidal wyvern
#

I only TT’ed to June for the wedding tuxedo and shoes

brisk perch

#

Seafood restaurant/cafe. Because that's what I am currently working on :p

icy flint
#

@brisk perch maybe removing the path and placing trees down with a picnic blanket? or if you wanna keep the path then maybe add some garden benches with some other furniture for a neighborhood hang out area

woven drift
brisk perch
#

@icy flint I’ll totally would try that right now thanks! 🥰

icy flint
#

@brisk perch np glad to help! and @woven drift maybe since the space is close to your orchard try to give it some stalls or place some cardboard boxes to make it seem like your packing them to sell if that makes sense

woven drift
#

I’m actually trying to redo everything on the right

brittle pulsar
#

@woven drift small market place? Like a farmer’s market?

woven drift
#

Make it smaller than mine but cuter. Go!

#

Ok thanks for the suggestion y’all

brisk perch
#

@woven drift that’s crazy good! 🥺

woven drift
#

No it's just me spamming all the items

#

But it's a beginning!

#

I actually made a flower market too 😂 but I was like where did I found it from cause I was really sleepy that day

icy flint
#

seal i swear ima go to your island and steal everything

woven drift
#

Your flower market looks amazing

#

Go ahead I dare you @icy flint I'm very okay with that

brisk perch
#

👉🏼👈🏼 we should all have a hang out omg

brittle pulsar
#

I barely started actually decorating mine ‘=v=

woven drift
#

I have immensely bad adhd so I make super cluttered stuff if anyone can actually copy something or be inspired by it I'm super happy

#

So tell me a theme (I got almost all themes) and I'll post it

#

No it actually look really nice

#

Doesnt make it lag any less apparently lmao. I'm immune to it haha

arctic nimbus
woven drift
#

I got a good entrance, park, zen rock garden, pirate cove, fairy forest just ask!

rich tree
#

@arctic nimbus omg yes the log set 🥰

woven drift
#

I’m actually trying to urbanize most of my right island since it’s feels really rural there

#

What is not good is villager's gardens but I'm working on tharn

#

Does anyone here got a autumn island that could post some photos? i need inspiration for mine 😄

icy flint
#

"clustercore" is becoming more and more used now lol prob becuz of seal

woven drift
rich tree
#

@woven drift I actually like it without an arch!

woven drift
#

Thanks

#

OoO I like that

#

@icy flint hahahaha I doubt it

#

I made this small embarrassing shrine mostly because I love the mushroom items. It's not realistic or that cool but I love it

icy flint
#

can't wait for November for the mush items feel like my ruins island will be more nicer

woven drift
#

Honestly I felt you put a lot of stuff together but you really know how to make it look good, like if I don’t look at the detail u really can’t tell everything all together

#

@woven drift tysm it looks so pretty omg!! now its time to get some acorns and pine cones lol

#

Thank you @woven drift it means a lot because the fall items are some of my faves.

icy flint
#

dont wanna say its a cluster but i feel like adding more of different things around or the same thing can go a long way imo

woven drift
#

My favorite are the bamboo and blossom items

#

Thats my theme so I’m trying not to add anything in the fall season since it would not fit

icy flint
#

@scenic blaze kept posting pics with her bamboo trees and next thing i know i have more bamboo trees than any tree lmao

woven drift
#

Wow that look nice

arctic nimbus
#

the bamboo partition is amazing tbh

scenic blaze
#

i love using bamboo in regular forested areas

woven drift
#

Same

#

@scenic blaze I still love mothra's artisanal bug cage area

#

That was you right, mothra????

#

I will check ur island out after I get home. I really like your designs

icy flint
#

@scenic blaze haven't finished my other forest area but adding more bamboo trees and adding small 1x1 items are a game changer imo

woven drift
#

To me it is mothra's most exciting area other than the most recent green bed custom pattern area

#

Everyone knows how long THAT area took because the moment I saw the bed cover pattern I wanted to know if it wws an in game item omfg

scenic blaze
#

@icy flint it looks so good!! the bamboo really adds something, i agree

icy flint
#

@woven drift also when i can get the mushroom diy ima change the stone table to a mushroom table

scenic blaze
#

i use the bug cages a lot, do you mean my big market?

woven drift
#

Hmmm the place with the termite nest

noble vigil
#

Any ideas for this tiny area by the park? I was thinking a small seating area but I don't want to keep using log / natural garden furniture

icy flint
#

ohh mothra wanna see my mid progress redds marketplace?

woven drift
#

I'm hopefully not confusing you with may because you two are one of the 3 people whose island I've visited via dream world hahahah

icy flint
woven drift
#

I'm always doing a huge makeover on my island so I dont have that much time to check everyone's island ;-; and I get lost all the time unless I'm given a tour

brave storm
#

Okay so i am back

woven drift
#

@woven drift recommend dream islands it saves time

scenic blaze
#

ooo nyack it's coming together!! i like those shingles a lot

icy flint
#

well seal you aren't that busy when you're coming to my island for that flower resupply haha

woven drift
#

I have visited exactly 3 dream islands @woven drift hahahaha

#

HAHAHAH NYACK I COULDNT HELP IT OMG SHHH I RAN OUT OK @icy flint

#

@noble vigil Perhaps a playground?

Like the kind of island you have probably would get like 10 people visiting in a hour 😂😂

im sadly coming to a realization that i might need to redo my zen garden for kabuki since i wanna get more custom slot spaces for a swamp area

woven drift
#

I'm so surprised that I have 470 visitors to my dream island I never expected that

#

“Pretend to be shocked”

#

Why dont all these people just dm me ;___;

brave storm
#

I never opened up my dream island yet

woven drift
#

Just saying ur island too good peepoflower

smoky cove
#

@woven drift different time zone?

icy flint
#

if i was seals one out of 3 dream island visits then i might have one person then haha

woven drift
#

Actually its 4 by now

scenic blaze
#

@bitter inlet this is so cute! i love the touches of pink with the cherry blossom stuff. really great eye for color

icy flint
#

nope seal did not visit my island smh

woven drift
#

I'll try to reach 10 by the time I go to bed. I'm very picky haha

#

Those little rivers must have taken ages!

woven drift
#

Omg @woven drift thats so good??

#

Is that cottage core

bitter inlet
#

ty :> @scenic blaze

cursive smelt
#

quick question for the people who didn’t put their villagers in a “neighborhood” type thing do y’all have like a lot of other types of areas or am i just dumb. bc giving them each their own yard is taking a l o t of space and i don’t think i’ll have room for my other ideas

icy flint
woven drift
#

@woven drift Btw how can u tell how many visited ur island

brittle pulsar
#

I got the game on my birthday so I missed the chance to get the cherry blossom recipes

brave storm
#

Mine has 0 rivers

woven drift
#

Mines alway lacking with rivers

night fjord
#

rivers take up space for building so

icy flint
#

@cursive smelt i spread all of mine out from my map pic layout and give them a decent amount of space and sometimes i have enough space and sometimes i need more space but i feel like it depends on what you have on your island already

cursive smelt
woven drift
#

It depend how u wanna do it tbh

brave storm
#

@night fjord I am about to begin building my rivers to split up the 4 areas

cursive smelt
#

if i even have enough room

woven drift
#

If u do Cottage Core river will make your island really nice

#

@woven drift check your passport via nintendo app

icy flint
#

@woven drift also to check how many people came to your island through a dream you have to go to the nintendo switch app on your phone and then go to animal crossing and then passport

woven drift
#

It 's cottage core, fairy core and also kind of natural...yeah the terraforming progress was really hard and took ages.. especialy because my island was flat @delicate star @woven drift

#

I never shared my island so I’m not sure but let me check out 😂

bitter inlet
#

@cursive smelt you can make areas that’s connected with their house. Like if you want a library and a villager likes reading, you could make it their library.

woven drift
#

Oh this is only via the dream address! Sorry.

#

Also my name is baby seal its seal baby currently lmao

#

Alright! Back to normal

#

Anyway I've demolished huge neighborhoods surrounding my villager's houses what you see on my island is not nearly representative of how good it is now >:( mandatory disclaimer

#

Gimme like 1 day to make it right ;-;

#

I switcheroo'd everyone's house omg

midnight moth

#

Just 4 😂😂 @woven drift

#

I not done with my island so I’m really not sharing it

#

That's ok we all know @gentle acorn who censors his nice island

prisma gyro
#

My island is SO far from done and I have like 1000 hours in this game lol

#

Ok only 600 I guess, but still... I should have an actual island at this point

#

I only really started putting effort into it now that dream codes are a thing

brave storm
#

I'm trying to think how i am doing my rivers

woven drift
#

It’s alway best to make your island layout before starting anything

#

I have 1.1k hours like you @prisma gyro but I spent most of it on my map which I've changed a lot of today but it wont show when you visit me cause I'm not comfy with sharing yet ;__;

#

This current map is different from the Dream Address for a good reason!1

gentle acorn
#

That's ok we all know @gentle acorn who censors his nice island
@woven drift woah there :<

woven drift
#

I barely have 200-300 hours on my island 😳

#

I guess I have a long way to go

#

It's TRUE though. @gentle acorn you're less confident than I am even

tidal wyvern
woven drift
#

They take too long for us to flat the map @tidal wyvern

#

It take me 100 hours to do it

#

I've never even flattened my map before

tidal wyvern
#

yes this is what I call no 👁motivation👁

woven drift
#

Why would you remove all your progress?? Just clear out one area at a time

#

The only issue I had in the beginning is the flower infesting

cursive smelt
#

i need dom hard inspo

woven drift
#

@woven drift those heart lakes type of thing looks soo cutee.. i once tryed it and it took me over 3 hours to get how it works... like damm

rich tree
#

Keep the oil barrels or add wood barrels? I can’t place stuff on these rusty bois 😞

cursive smelt
#

I've never even flattened my map before
@woven drift don’t do it it literally made me cry when i went to build

woven drift
brittle pulsar
#

I stated to decorate mine, starting with the museum, it’s not the best though and the museum hasn’t relocated yet

woven drift
#

My nature river was honestly really bad

tidal wyvern
#

y’all have good islands and mines flat 👁️

#

I had a natural heart pond before I flattened my island

woven drift
#

What they come naturally???

#

So my default river was going down to down

#

I made my 2 hearts from scratch. 1.5 hours for first heart and 4 hours to incorporate the 2nd heart. What the hell? I never restarted my island and started from launch

#

I have 350 hours @Hun

#

I got it right at 12 am my time ;__;

#

And played until I fell asleep omg. I cant imagine restarting at this point!!!!

tidal wyvern
#

I don’t wanna restart because I have a blue airport 👁️
