[zenith steppe]

anyone have a mountain around their resident services?

[green ingot]

Kinda

[zenith steppe]

can i see?

[green ingot]

Sure

Pretty plain rn tho

[void helm]

I have kind of a weird question. Does anybody have inpo for islands that use ocean water codes on their mainland?

[zenith steppe]

ooo i like it thank you @green ingot

[cinder agate]

Somehow my island became a 5 star island even though the back half of my island is a mess. I’m still super excited though and I can’t wait to use my golden watering can to water my flowers!

just here to show off the map I commissioned from someone :D

[tulip gull]

I'm looking for someone to design my island I'll pay 12 million bells!!

[limber ginkgo]

anyone have inspo for a villager home next to an angled river?

[dawn sonnet]

soo... this little guy just showed up
my island isnt even done

add maybe a custom design that says pumpkin patch and add some fencing

left side: maybe a different ground with custom designs and some diy stuff. (mostly stone)

[brisk junco]

do you need access to the trees?

it'll look really cool if you place a shovel on the right in between the trees and pumpkin patch

[dawn sonnet]

yea and some hay beds

[brisk junco]

yes hay beds too!!

I always forget they're a thing

[limber ginkgo]

Can you place anything on them?
@toxic oar unfortunately no

[dawn sonnet]

but you can on the halloween ones

yes, thats even better i think for there

i think the faces can stay, try it both ways

i dont even know how i got 5 stars lol

oki

i did horizontal

[brisk junco]

mine will be horizontal too

[deep bane]

Can anyone help me what to put here

Japan theme

[dawn sonnet]

im kinda going for a natural type

add paper lanterns

[little topaz]

Going for nightmare before Xmas theme 😅

yess mixing my 2 fav holidays up!

[neon glen]

spoopy

[little topaz]

yes

[dawn sonnet]

ok now i have my island theme a real name:
natural themed islands
i have islands of hills and stuff and all of them have a theme.

[little topaz]

i actually stopped playing for a good 3 months but started again because of halloween!

[dawn sonnet]

me too

[little topaz]

do it !

[dawn sonnet]

i will make a halloween hill at my entrance, and maybe add some spooky arches and lanterns too

also i think its a good idea that you lift some areas up a level on you island. just for variety

[little topaz]

my entrance is very royal like

[limber ginkgo]

I moved my moved out villager memorial to a different beach

[dawn sonnet]

add some trees

[limber ginkgo]

oo yeah I will for sure! I had a bunch of random beach furniture around before

[nova vale]

Trying to make a little spooky outdoor area for the season, and I am incredibly triggered by the lack of symmetry available on the halloween items. And you cant put anything on the tables because NOTHING can be centralised

Maybe when I get some more items I can try that, because right now I have wasted way too much time on this little area lol

[little topaz]

i just filled the tables with table setting on mine

[brisk junco]

the lack of symmetry can definitely get frustrating at times but I'm loving these halloween setups!

[sour cave]

What should I do in my 2nd floor and basement

[brisk junco]

this channel is for showing off and discussing island layouts, you can talk about interior/home design in #happy-home-designs

[sour cave]

Oops

[brisk junco]

it's ok!

[limber ginkgo]

Adding spooky furniture to my cemetery as I gain the DIYs

The incline in the back leads to Redd's beach

[deft glen]

Not mine, but heres a symmetrical pumpkin patch that I thought was well done

[manic sigil]

cute!

[woven drift]

Awhh, nicee done!

[brisk junco]

that's so beautiful 🥺

[wise minnow]

My pumpkin patch 🙂

[neon glen]

queen

before it was tia’s yard but i think i like the addition of trees + i can use incline for something else lolol

[junior ore]

i had to pop a balloon just right to get it next to the chair!

[frozen jolt]

My camp any improvements? Sorry about the bad quality

[junior ore]

maybe some log stools and a campfire!!! the leaf campfire is really neat

[frozen jolt]

Ah ok thank you!

[junior ore]

also the crafting table thats a big tree stump is cool too

maybe use a custom design as a picnic blanket and have the picnic basket and cushions? :0

[frozen jolt]

Thank you! I want a forestry theme and im not really getting the vibe any ideas?

[slender wadi]

If anyone wants ideas, please look at this! It helped me get to 3 stars today! Another thing is ask on chats like #690093605821480980 or #mysterybags-and-yardsales if people have hybrid flowers! I got like 200 hybrid flowers from 2 people and then I was at 3 stars! I hope it helps.

[bleak wind]

Just spent three hours doing this 👉 👈 How does it look?

[limber ginkgo]

that feeling you get when you change an area and end up freeing up a bridge/incline slot

[round belfry]

Don’t know which group to put this on but turned my real phone into a nook phone took nearly 2 hours 🙈 but totally worth it !! 💜

[undone oriole]

wait, i thought it was a real nook phone

[cunning gale]

I need it

[undone oriole]

[cold summit]

Anyone with their RS really close to their airport have entry way pictures? I’m not sure what to do with mine with it being so close and off centered 😓

[inland bay]

Mine is pretty close together too so I did this

[cloud marsh]

@cold summit

[cold summit]

Ty both ☺️

[cloud marsh]

I'm also quite fond of my original one before I moved nooks to make room for a castle lol

[sharp jetty]

@cold summit My RS is literally if you walk right lolXD

But cliffs really helped making it seems like its farther away

[cold summit]

Cute! Yeah I’m in the process of redoing all cliffs. Thanks for inspo 🤗

[summer nymph]

What garden layout looks better?

[sharp jetty]

The left one looks better

[summer nymph]

Thanks

[woven drift]

Made a beach diner in front of Rosie's house

[foggy marsh]

Nice

[golden nest]

Hey so I want a pumpkin farm on my island but have no room, but I’m willing to trade my lavender farm for a pumpkin farm if the pumpkins can be planted year round. Does anyone know if pumpkins are an October only thing?

[inland bay]

They will still be there year round

[golden nest]

Ok thanks so much! Couldn’t find any info about it online for some reason

[inland bay]

you can check #tour-guide for info also

[grizzled turret]

I wanna remodel my town, here's a rough idea of a layout. What d'ya think? My only qualm is that i want a farm, but I'm not sure where to put it. Feedback appreciated!

[restive lake]

I try to make a birch Forrest but I think I need to improve it so much my island feel too flat, looking for some advices please

[cloud marsh]

@grizzled turret looke good! I'd put your farm behind nooks :)

[grizzled turret]

@cloud marsh aww ty! actually, now you say that, I could probably move the school behind nooks and put the farm where it was

[stable musk]

@restive lake That is SUCH a cool idea!!

[woven drift]

I now it's pretty lame but I put a lot of work into it,but I really like it

[crisp onyx]

dragon burial site 🐲✨

[woven drift]

That's so cool

[crisp onyx]

thank you!!

[lucid hinge]

I’m so happy with my little pumpkin patch 🥺

[sudden grail]

so cute

[slow grove]

Should I keep this path or nah?

[upper vortex]

Excuse the garbage quality but I finally finished my outdoor bakeshop

[woven drift]

Does anyone have any ideas for an abandoned looking campsite? 💕

[sacred parrot]

slapped together a little cafe real quick

[fathom grove]

does anyone know their social media or anything? or dream address? i'd love to stop by and see their whole island

[woven drift]

Does anyone know how many spaces rocks need to be away from residential services?

[ocean igloo]

Hey does anyone have any inspiration for a Sherb yard? I’m kind of stuck right now. <33

[woven drift]

Does anyone know how many spaces rocks need to be away from residential services?
@woven drift yes actually they need to be 1 tile away I think

Thanks!

[zenith steppe]

@grizzled turret do you have no msueum or am i blind?

NVM im blind sorry

[bitter inlet]

@fathom grove their twitter is suityu_ukabu__

[slow verge]

@cold summit

[nocturne thicket]

I’m very proud with my farm😁😁

[brittle lion]

Tea land 🍵 🍂🌱

[bleak wind]

Updated this area from earier! I love it even more now ☺️

[thorny goblet]

anyone got tips on how to make epic layouts? i'm revamping my island but i have no idea what im doing

[hoary epoch]

I need some feedback on my cottagecore area, I feel like I have too many trees but I don’t know how to space them and what else to put in the areas. I also don’t know what to do with the upper area since I want it to be divided from the rest of the island :/

[thorny goblet]

can never have too many trees

if you're going for cottegecore i think its very fitting

[woven drift]

Flowers and weeds!

And loose rock paths

[cold summit]

@sacred parrot which tile floor is that? Looks perfect for what I need

[sacred parrot]

I’m not too sure where I got it from!! I think I just googled custom brick path? @cold summit

[spark dune]

@severe kestrel #diy-trade

[carmine depot]

Which path for a European themed island? Terra-cotta tiles, brick path or stone path?

^^ or arched tile path

The stone path matches my entrance I have in mind better so would it be possible to transition somehow?

[tropic delta]

Wat i did for Judy
I really like how it turned out 😊

[spark dune]

@carmine depot terracotta probably !

so pretty mr. lazy !!

[tropic delta]

Ty

[carmine depot]

Thanks! @spark dune

[woven drift]

So i just reset my island because i felt like restarting does anyone know a map that has resident services even with the airport or atleast looks good with where it is

Guys I am 110% sure I have a missing rock. I’m SO frustrated will someone please help me look for it? I quadruple-checked that it would be able to spawn and it won’t, which means it must already be somewhere and I’ve looked everywhere 😭

[lean magnet]

WIP!!! Is this overkill hahaha. I am going for like a rococo kinda themed garden... still need the shrubs to grow, work out some fencing for the outside, add a bunch of trees to make it more hidden and do something with that river and extra random flowers...

[sacred parrot]

that’s gorgeous!!

[spark dune]

@woven drift try #mysterybags-and-yardsales good luck !!

[woven drift]

Can I get some feedback pls

[sacred parrot]

greenery! and I’d put like a bench or something at the top

[woven drift]

Thx

[scenic jacinth]

hey!! i have a 5 star island and i’m opening it if people need any inspo or anything!

[spark dune]

@scenic jacinth #690093605821480980 please !

[woven drift]

This is where I want the rock to spawn. HALP I don’t understand I’m losing my mind.

[hoary epoch]

I think it might be because of the tower

[spark dune]

@woven drift have you watched this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9QXgwYnkBs&feature=youtu.be ?

[woven drift]

It’s more than a space away ): but I can try to move it

as you can see in the first picture your problem is with the pisa tower i think

its a 'tall' furniture and as such it blocks a lot of spaces behind it

[spark dune]

nikey huge brain

[manic sigil]

[woven drift]

Oh geez I hope this works 🤞

[thorny forum]

does anyone have any cute fish market inspo? I’m also gonna make a bug market as well

[woven drift]

TY NIKEY

[mental rain]

Does anyone have a haunted carnival i can see for inspiration? I'm going to turn my beach into one :-)

[cedar acorn]

How can i move rocks or get more?

[spark dune]

@cedar acorn check the .t a few messages above !

[manic sigil]

@woven drift you can place it back now if you want :)

[woven drift]

[woven drift]

This is mine (zoey v interest in lucky)

[swift palm]

[languid iron]

My graveyard is coming along. I might add more tombstones tho. Just wanted to share my progress.

[woven drift]

Omg I love that!

[elfin mauve]

so pretty!!

[languid iron]

Thanks guys🖤

[spark dune]

omg that's beautiful

[young briar]

Evening folks. Anyone got any small area ideas? I've been stuck with one area of my island for ages. Any help would be appreciated.

[spark dune]

like, how about a tiny library

[young briar]

Ooh, that is a good idea. Thank you.

[woven drift]

Or a pumpkin patch

[young briar]

I've gots one of those, but thank you.

It is a small-ish area in front of my shops.

[turbid mortar]

@mental rain I made a boardwalk & I’m in the process of adding the spooky pumpkin DIYs to it. I’d imagine you can create something like this with a dark color scheme! These are old photos but the areas are generally the same

[small pebble]

Would anyone be willing to send pics/share ideas of areas decorated on the beach? I can't figure out what else to put! I have a little cafe/sitting area already, but I have so much empty space still! Any ideas appreciated, thanks everyone 🙂

[terse pewter]

How does this look?

[vocal vigil]

Not sure how I feel about this. First time terraforming

[magic fulcrum]

My cozy little reading spot:)

[woven drift]

Not sure how I feel about this. First time terraforming
@vocal vigil I should make the rivers more natural or less square like

[vocal vigil]

@woven drift idk how

[rapid glade]

just did this plz give some feedback and it probably looks better at night but i need some advice on what i should add..

[woven drift]

Make with the water tool 1 little square at every corner of your river and then hit the little square with the water tool again

[pastel pine]

maybe a pumpkin lantern

[woven drift]

@woven drift idk how
@vocal vigil Make with the water tool 1 little square at every corner of your river and then hit the little square with the water tool again

Hey so does anyone have any good replacements for the hacked resident service bench that was patched?

I was using it a lot because I liked how it didnt have a back

[cloud forge]

This random area on my island

[royal widget]

Anyone have tips on what to add

[hollow oyster]

anyone trying to make a corn maze equivalent for the spooky season? I kinda want to, but i’m unsure of how to go about it

[woven drift]

Hay fences maybe

[tired scarab]

@royal widget honestly that llooks gorgeous as is. Maybe a bench or seating place somewhere? Or a bit more flowers /trees if you can squeeze some in.

[outer jungle]

Anyone wanna help me on my island for a bit lol it’s so trash

[storm bluff]

@hollow oyster ive seen people use hay beds to block out the maze! it looks awesome even though it doesnt provide much height

[hollow oyster]

@storm bluff That’s kinda where I’m leaning tbh. Do you have any pictures for reference? if not it’s cool, I just figured I’d ask

[storm bluff]

@hollow oyster if you search "hay maze acnh" on twitter there are a loooot of awesome examples! i just searched it up

[hollow oyster]

Okay cool, I’ll do that! Thanks!!

[thin vector]

@royal widget hello, do you have the code for this path ? thank you 🙂

[royal widget]

@royal widget hello, do you have the code for this path ? thank you 🙂
@thin vector yeah I do! I dm you a picture

[thin vector]

thank you so much !

[royal widget]

Ofc!

[golden nest]

Before and after pics of this big open area on my island!!! I finally made myself get rid of The Path™️ so I had more room for little mushroom design slots

[flint obsidian]

Does anyone have an idea for an entrance

[vernal oxide]

@flint obsidian this is what my old entrance looks like!

[uneven inlet]

anyone have any spooky halloween ideas to put on my island

[toxic lake]

@uneven inlet a lot of people are doing pumpkin patches, graveyards or like witch coven type areas.

@flint obsidian adding water features and a nice path is always an easy and good entrance. and flowers!

[mental rain]

@turbid mortar THAT IS GORGEOUS THANK YOU ♡

[terse sparrow]

does anyone have enchanged forest themed island pictures, i need inspiration

[golden nest]

@terse sparrow I hope this fits into that theme

[pseudo musk]

What should I do with this little area?

[terse sparrow]

@golden nest thank you!

[lethal storm]

What should I do with this little area?
@pseudo musk it depends on what your island theme is, but I would suggest maybe making a waterfall area or maybe a seating area. Some flowers or trees would look nice too.

[south idol]

Benches would look nice

[pseudo musk]

Ok my island theme is gardens and pink, green, white, or also like beach town

[lethal storm]

Okay, then I would suggest maybe a bench by the fence, some flowers and maybe some custom design.

[pseudo musk]

Ok

[lethal storm]

I like how you have the path, it looks cool too

[pseudo musk]

Thanks 🙂

[lethal storm]

Np

Im confused on how everybody's islands look so good.

[hardy roost]

Does anyone have any ideas for Roscoe yard wasnt sure what chat to put it in

[dire isle]

anyone have good examples of residential areas and/or orchards?

[lethal storm]

I would suggest maybe some mushroom lamps if you have them in those open corners @toxic oar

[hardy lance]

are there any Halloween pumpkin island decor ideas that mesh well with an existing bamboo grove?

[lethal storm]

Oh okay, idk when they are avaliabe

[hardy lance]

I'm not 100% sure bamboo green and orange pumpkin meshes well

[green ingot]

Good idea

[hardy lance]

oh ty

[lethal storm]

How do you all have such good islands? haha I cant get mine how I want ittt

[fickle yew]

How do you all have such good islands? haha I cant get mine how I want ittt
@lethal storm be patient, collect a lot of cool items and focus on one small section at a time

[lethal storm]

Okay I will try haha

[hardy lance]

king boo?

[cunning solstice]

any ideas for this entrance?

[pseudo musk]

Yea,it took me three days to make my pumpkin patch but it looked good because I worked hard and only focused on a small area

[lethal storm]

How long does flatining islands normally take?

[fickle yew]

Change the color of the mario Sprite orange xD

[hardy lance]

pick a luigi mansion scarier version or something lol, with that heavy eyeshade

[cunning solstice]

please help

[pseudo beacon]

@cunning solstice you could have some cliffs next to where you enter and after you could have a path leading to RS

[prisma folio]

Can I get someone’s opinion on which one looks better? Dark/yellow arch or natural/green arch

[static olive]

Y’all are so good at this game

[pseudo musk]

@lethal storm I took you advice!

[lethal storm]

aww it looks so cute!

[pseudo musk]

Thanks!

[lethal storm]

Im remodeling my island now, I just finished putting alot of stuff on nookazon haha

[cloud forge]

How do you guys like this

[pseudo musk]

Haha

Ooh that looks really nice!

[cloud forge]

@pseudo musk thank you

[pseudo musk]

No problem!

[woven drift]

it’s not finished yet but spoopy birthday area :3

aaaa thank you so much!!

[prisma folio]

@toxic oar alright, thank you!

[dusky nebula]

Try it see how you like it

[zenith roost]

Got some terraforming done today! Made a little perspective area behind RS so that the Orchard runs into the residential area

[gaunt geyser]

dom decided to sit down while i was trying to create this new mini area anyway this is what i got done within 20 minutes or so

[outer lichen]

Does anyone have any fall inspired entrances they don't mind sharing? Trying to get into the fall spirit.

[midnight sundial]

Ok. So I am trying to make half of my island a village village type of island. But I’m debating if I should just fill in the hole or crush down the crescent moon. Cause I was gonna put pillars around it.

[terse pewter]

What could I put here?

[woven drift]

@terse pewter pumpkin patch

[terse pewter]

Ooh!

can you give me a layout real quick on how it should look like?

[iron ridge]

I'm not sure what to put here, I already have a pumpkin patch, diner, cafè, arcade and fountain area. I can't think of anything that would suit this small area

[obsidian falcon]

[novel marlin]

My first big thing I'm proud of that's in my island what do you guys think?

[outer lichen]

is that in front of lucky's house?

[novel marlin]

Yes

[outer lichen]

i think it's good

[novel marlin]

That whole thing is lucky's

Next up Zuker...

[outer lichen]

well it suits him so it looks good

[novel marlin]

Thanks

I dont know what to do for Zucker though

[outer lichen]

hm, maybe like a traditional japanese theme idk. I'm in the process of trying to make a fall entrance

[novel marlin]

Ahh nice

And that was a great idea thanks!

[dusty summit]

I did a mini Japanese zen garden for coco and zuckers shared yard

[outer lichen]

nice, I made a small japanese yard theme for Kabuki

[novel marlin]

What should I for marina and octavious

[dusty summit]

I turned marinas into a mermaid themed resort but I’m changing it soon

[outer lichen]

honestly it's hard to find fall themes because then it just turns into cottegecore

[novel marlin]

I'm planning on put zucker and coco together then apollo and marshal together cuz they both have modern furniture and then ANKHA alone and roald alone to

[dusty summit]

That’s a good idea

[novel marlin]

I also have FRANINCE but.. 🖕👉Fracine

[analog notch]

Hello I am new to Animal Crossing so does anyone have tips for me on the game

[novel marlin]

She broke Zucker's heart som I'm trying to get rid of her

@analog notch go to #general

[analog notch]

Alright

[hardy lance]

Octavian runs a Space Museum on my island

[novel marlin]

U just gave me the biggest inspo.

Plus it looks SICK!

[hardy lance]

and Marina's Beachside cafe is right next to Octavian's, for corporate synergy

[novel marlin]

AWSOMEE

[tulip gull]

I'll pay someone 12 million bells to design an island for me

[novel marlin]

@tulip gull see I was going to do that but then I realized how good it feels when you build something and people love ot

[outer lichen]

true^. Building is just kind of a hassle sometimes

[novel marlin]

Yeah but once you do it you feel so awsome

[outer lichen]

it just takes me a while to get my creativeness flowing without drawing a blank

[novel marlin]

I just look for inspo lol

[outer lichen]

yeah same here. i just don't want to copy and paste

[novel marlin]

Yeah what I do is like let's say I saw someone do a space themed place I dont copy it I just make my own space theme

[hardy lance]

inspiration's still good, imo. just don't have your reference in front of you while you design and usually something new pops up

[novel marlin]

Yes exactly cuz if you do you copy it without realizing

[hardy lance]

well and hopefully terrain restrictions force you to differ from what you drew inspiration from

[stoic knoll]

Heyo so this is a very specific request, does anyone have hotel lobby inspo lol? or like an office/lounge area inspo?

[hardy lance]

i'm guessing bars don't count as lounge?

[stoic knoll]

eh, I could use anything really lol

Im really lost :<

[outer lichen]

i just need to clear out the cliffs at the back of my island so i can have a flat island and finally start designing

[novel marlin]

I usually make cliffs

See this game litterally let's you shape the earth and see so I gotta take advantage

[outer lichen]

well it's cause it's just one big rectangle and i want to change it up

[novel marlin]

U can add curves

[hardy lance]

oh @stoic knoll you might have better luck in #happy-home-designs, but here's a sports bar.

[outer lichen]

i intend to keep cliffs, but i want to split them up

[novel marlin]

But u right

[outer lichen]

that's pretty cool

[stoic knoll]

@hardy lance Your right but I could really use this since I have no idea where I want to arange it, thanks!

[novel marlin]

@stoic knoll just make sure u dont copy it and try to be creative with it

Aight imma go look for space furniture

Thank you for the inspo @hardy lance mine is gonna be a theme park no a museum cuz I dont wanna copy

[hardy lance]

that's cool too!

[outer lichen]

i'm working with the fall paths and i really like the way they look

[turbid minnow]

Not sure if this is the right channel but I'm redoing my museum and need some inspiration. Can anyone drop a pic of their setup?

[scenic blaze]

@turbid minnow since it's pretty quiet in this channel right now, you might get some good ideas by searching "in:island-layouts has:image museum" in the search bar!

[restive lake]

Just made this lavender field and house for Dotty I’m pretty happy with it !

[woven drift]

Wow that’s amazing

[potent schooner]

I just got Octavian lol

[woven drift]

Big epic 😎

[turbid minnow]

@scenic blaze thanks lol

[potent schooner]

He’s rare right?

[pseudo musk]

octavians one of my favorites

[safe lodge]

What should I decorate the outside of bobs house with?

[pseudo musk]

This is a pink garden area, I don’t know what to do with it though

@safe lodge maybe you should make a picnic area or a spa for bobs house

[safe lodge]

ooh! He loves food bc he’s lazy type!! Maybe a picnic would work!!

[desert lion]

Currently redoing my entrance, but I’m not finished yet
I would appreciate any tips :)

[pseudo musk]

Here’s my picnic, I’m gonna make it bigger

[south marlin]

@safe lodge I gave bob all blue flowers, a cooking campfire, a clothesline and a log bench lol

[outer lichen]

@desert lion that's sick! I'm trying to go for a similar vibe as well (or something fall related)

[pseudo musk]

@safe lodge maybe something like this for bobs house?

[silver sorrel]

@pseudo musk yo what's your path code tho?

[low salmon]

can someone help me fix my island 😭 I hate it so much

[pseudo musk]

@silver sorrel for the picnic or walkway?

[silver sorrel]

walkway, like the dirt path

[pseudo musk]

Ok

Lemme check, my switch is out of battery but I’ll get back to u ok

[silver sorrel]

np lol

[turbid minnow]

@desert lion I love it! I like to put a clover path code in small free spots to make it look more natural

[gloomy river]

what can I add to make Redd’s beach more pirate-y?

[scenic blaze]

@gloomy river gold DIYs, the fossil that looks like a skull, champion's pennant item (it's a cool flag)

[gloomy river]

ouuu champions pennant could be cool! I’ll look into the others as well, thanks!

maybe I’ll put a stall up with some gold items in it too!

[grand scaffold]

@grand scaffold i'm obsessed!! do you have a dream code?

[gray gate]

Can someone advise why this dumb diagonal bridge won’t work

[gloomy river]

[gray gate]

The land or the river?

[inland bay]

the river

[gray gate]

Okay let me try that

[inland bay]

the river is too narrow

[gray gate]

Bless you all

[pseudo musk]

@silver sorrel I didn’t make the design, but the creator code is 3785 2688 2979, Ella

[grand scaffold]

@uncut dragon I haven’t updated it yet with the pumpkin but you can find it on my insta at willow_acnh!

[lone stag]

when r u able to landscape?

[midnight hamlet]

Can I see how some of you have your pumpkin fields laid out?

[misty relic]

Here's mine! It's a combination of pumpkin and tree stump farm haha https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EjR1Q0RUwAAUeoF?format=jpg&name=large

[whole spoke]

i don’t have any ideas for my entire island theme

[lone stag]

epic

[rich bobcat]

museum area

[hidden vessel]

I have this little office in my city area, but I want to take it down and make a pumpkin carving station/ outdoor sitting bc my pumpkin patch is right next to it(to the left) should I?

[viscid patio]

Yes

[hidden vessel]

@viscid patio thank u for ur advice (:

[viscid patio]

No prob if you still want an office area I think it would look better in a house.

[glacial lily]

hey! i just restarted my island again! any ideas for themes i could do?

[strange acorn]

🤍

[viscid patio]

Nice!

[neon glen]

@brazen horizon oo what is the code for the stairs !!

[sacred parrot]

getting rid of this mini sauna so I can make a pumpkin patch, maybe I’ll move it to the beach?

[viscid patio]

@glacial lily I think city themed islands look pretty cool. Fantasy ones are pretty epic, maybe lord of the rings kinda theme would be awesome. In seen a scary themed island and to this day it was the best acnh island I’ve ever seen.

Yeah I think that would look great on the beach

[tawdry patrol]

Should I go for a town hall that’s really close and symmetrical or one that’s really far away?

[woven drift]

How would I make a diner spooky

[viscid patio]

You mean resident services?

[woven drift]

I made a diner

[viscid patio]

I was talking to the other guy

[woven drift]

Oh sorry

Can someone share with me a flower patch which includes a few wind turbines

[viscid patio]

@woven drift I think making the diner look abandoned would be pretty spooky

[woven drift]

@viscid patio how would I do that

[viscid patio]

I’m sure there are pictures or videos of people making abandoned building and villages in acnh maybe you could take inspiration from there

[woven drift]

True

I’ll let u know what I find

[viscid patio]

Ok 👍

[flint obsidian]

Should I keep the wood and stepping stones

[potent schooner]

Yes, but add flowers

[tidal stratus]

Ngl, while I'm happy with how my skull-shaped graveyard turned out, I'm at a complete loss for how to flesh out the rest of Halloween Town. I've spent all afternoon on this and made zero progress.

Only two days in and already burnt out super hard, but I can't stop now cuz I already clear-cut the entire island for this project. 😦 Gotta figure this out eventually.

[ember tangle]

Can someone PLEASE post ideas for a multi level housing area? Or just any cool housing areas?

[oblique blade]

Anybody have any ideas on what to put here? I’m think of doing a crowded market but I need some ideas, would appreciate if you helped ty!

[plain forge]

my obsession with the rural japanese town aesthetic is back so I'm trying rly hard to not tear my island down before I complete it and update my DA lmao

Here is a cute pic of Judy j chillin

[green kite]

I love Halloween! what do you guys think? 👻

[brazen horizon]

@neon glen i believe the code for them is MO-K93B-T3RY-XJ58
sorry for my late response!

[plain forge]

@tidal stratus it's not completely the same but u can try checking out halloweentown inspired layouts on YT by people who play minecraft; it might give u a good blueprint of where to terraform/decorate "structures" like the hill, forest, buildings, etc

@ember tangle

[ember tangle]

Ah I see, thank you!

Ima go with number one on the first one

[plain forge]

Anybody have any ideas on what to put here? I’m think of doing a crowded market but I need some ideas, would appreciate if you helped ty!
@oblique blade from the bottom portion (near the beach) you can have the narrow road lead to a parking lot with racecar beds and up in front you can build a supermarket out of simple panels or a night market type area where there's stalls and walking space in between

[modest bridge]

any good fences that will look good around the villagers houses? Im trying to create a village/city type of feel for the villagers neighborhood

[lost arch]

@modest bridge I love the vertical-board fence, the simple wooden fence, and the lattice fence, depending on the house's exterior!

[modest bridge]

Thank you @lost arch! Im definity going to try a few out and see how they look

[indigo beacon]

I feel the need make a huge make over of my island

it feels crowded D: And im getting ready for the Halloween makeover

[woven drift]

What is probably the 1st thing I should do to start designing my island?

[vernal oxide]

Making my entrance spoopy 🎃 (finally tore down my island to redesign it)

[woven drift]

Oooo spoopy

[lost arch]

@woven drift I would spend some time in this channel looking for ideas that you like, and save photos and such. Then plan out your space on pen and paper so you have an idea of where you want things to go

[woven drift]

Ok Thank you

[lost arch]

np! If any parts of your design require moving buildings (shops, museum, houses), I would get started on moving those first and foremost.

[woven drift]

Ok

[plain forge]

@vernal oxide I LOOOOVE THIS and I can't wait to see more of your new project! ❤️

[inner aurora]

This is my current island layout. I was planning on putting the campsite in the top left corner. But now idk where to put my house and the museum. Any ideas?

[plain forge]

What is probably the 1st thing I should do to start designing my island?
@woven drift while it's not necessary to figure out a theme for your island, it could be helpful to find a few aesthetics you like on pinterest to get a general idea of how you want to lay out your island/what elements you want to focus on! Then I'd suggest start terraforming/decorating from your entrance~

[vernal oxide]

@plain forge THANK YOUUUUU. I’m literally so excited to keep working on it

[agile jungle]

Starting to add some halloween stuff to my entrance. Should I add the arch right at the entrance or is that too much? 🤔

[woven drift]

ty!

@agile jungle I think you should add an arch

[junior dome]

thinking of changing the houses up above the river so below it , goes the “city itself” (market, cafe, library, etc) and above is the villagers and residential area. what do y’all think? (campsite and my house will stay)

[dusky wave]

hey guys, what are some ideas for rooms i can do in my house? i have a living room, kitchen, & bathroom already

[agile jungle]

I have a small room as a "walk in" closet 🙂

[indigo beacon]

Can somone send some pictures of some magical Forest inspo with Gnomes?

I need some inspiration!

My layout at the front for so long now, Airport is so close to the Resident Services.
I need some inspiration to change the area.

[trim cipher]

Does anyone have examples of desert themed areas hmm 🤔

[woven drift]

Does anyone know how to terraform a river

[desert geyser]

my island is garbage, i dont know about placement nor paths, some one please help

[woven drift]

Same

[desert geyser]

bruh if u visit me u will die inside

[carmine mirage]

Not gonna make a face

[desert geyser]

what should i do with my villager homes?

[tidal stratus]

@plain forge That’s actually a phenomenal idea. Thank you for the suggestion. I’ll take a look into that further tomorrow.

[wind wind]

Put them into small villages of 2-3 houses on different levels, and give them all their own small details @desert geyser

[warped umbra]

Hey ya'll should I complete this star shape, I feel like I have to if I want my island split up into sections

[wind wind]

You don’t have to if you want your island to be split up, but I’d go for it cause it’s a pretty cool and unique idea

[warped umbra]

Thanks! I think it just looks half complete like that anyway, I just don't know how to make it not lopsided or stretched out

[wind wind]

It’s fine if it’s a little lopsided or stretched out

But you can do some math to make it perfectly symmetrical if you want

[warped umbra]

I think I should just go with the flow then! it kinda already is though 😂

[wind wind]

Yea, go for it! If you ever have trouble making it work, there are plenty of people here to help you

[red folio]

Thinking about redoing the area on the bottom right to be a level lower and closer to the beach but I don’t know

[wind wind]

Depends on the feel you’re going for

If you want it to be more beach-like, moving it lower could help

[red folio]

It’s tropical themed but I’m just having a hard time figuring out what I’d do with the area if I changed it

It’s mostly dead space atm I was gonna use it for crops a long time ago but then I came up with the villager crops idea

[wind wind]

Perhaps it could be like a nature walk connecting the village to the bottom right

I find that nature pathways provide an amazing way to fill dead space, and they’re never identical

[red folio]

Well to the left of the cliff on the right side of the area is a market so it kinda kills the village there

Its a good signal for the boundaries for the village but below those 3 dots it’s all just dead space I’ve filled with flowers and stuff

[wind wind]

Hmm, maybe a path with tables and flowers surrounding it?

A large flower field with a path isn’t the worst, either

[desert geyser]

i have no inspiration

idk what to do

can some one come to my island and recomend me things to do?

bruh

[hybrid wharf]

can some one come to my island and recomend me things to do?
@desert geyser I need help too

[hollow crypt]

I would, but I’m working on my own island right now, sorry

[desert geyser]

i have my whole island with an outline of flowers

[tulip kelp]

Faking hell

[vernal oxide]

@tulip kelp a lot of people usually are busy, or aren’t online, you can send pics or ask in #690093605821480980 or #mysterybags-and-yardsales but posting your code can cause random people to come and steal from you

[tulip kelp]

That's the castle

[limber ginkgo]

Anyone have inspo for a statue garden kinda area?

[tulip kelp]

I made one I my paradise

[west olive]

@limber ginkgo I have that. I need to take pictures and I can send that to you later if you want

Nevermind. I have it lolol @limber ginkgo

[wooden nimbus]

thanks so much

[leaden veldt]

@mighty field omg what’s the path id for the one in front of the houses it’s soo cute! & ur island is beautiful 😍

[potent schooner]

@mighty field you have a lot of cubs😂

[mighty field]

Thank you!!!🥰 the path code is MA-9503-9811-8839

Anyone have any ideas on how to fill empty space? I'm trying to get 5 stars lol

[pale musk]

Here’s my pumpkin patch as of now

[woven drift]

@woven drift flowers, trees

YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pumpkin patch

Does anyone know what I could do to my shops area to make it look haunted/abandoned

[knotty peak]

Im no expert but you can just put a few weeds here and there and maybe make the area seem overgrown with trees? or even cut down some trees to make it look spookier idk. you could put trash bags in certain areas too

obviously decorate it with some of the halloween stuff to make it halloweeny or something. if you have the wooden sign post you could also put like a DANGER custom design on it and put a rope fence around it

[west olive]

Add some customized stones too

[tiny moth]

I saw this on insta! May give some ideas - obviously not mine

[uneven inlet]

can someone give me ideas for a neighborhood? i want my villagers basically in one area but not make it so flat and boring yk

[sturdy ore]

Maybe make an area where the houses are a bit spread out but still in that specific area

[maiden thorn]

@uneven inlet Check the top pinned message

[uneven inlet]

can i have some entrance/ residence area?? they’re very close to eachother and i’m stumped

[tardy fern]

I did my houses on three tiers in one corner of my map! 4 up top, three in the middle, three on the bottom @uneven inlet

[dreamy zealot]

Oh boy did i get lucky with island generation

[woven drift]

Aha gg dude

[sturdy ore]

@uneven inlet
This is an outdated entrance of mine but it might help you out. The space between the airport and RS is 11 holes

[uneven inlet]

@sturdy ore ohh imma try something like that! thank you

[sturdy ore]

No problem!

[inner surge]

Your carriage awaits .. 😈

[echo roost]

Can anyone post how they did their exterior decorating/layout for their house? I'm after some inspo if that's ok 😊

[plain forge]

@echo roost this is my house!

daytime view

[dire leaf]

hey yall! so i just reached the endgame (i fished a lot so i lagged LMAO) but basically after that i flattened my entire island in preparation for tons of terraforming. How did you guys start / come up with ideas? my head is feelign SUPER empty rn and cant think of anything

[clever minnow]

Hi

[plain forge]

@dire leaf Pinterest and Instagram are great sources of inspiration, and it helps even more if you can categorize the type of aesthetic you wanna go for (i.e. city, natural, gothic, cottagecore etc). After getting an idea I'd start with building the entrance and work in sections

[pastel pine]

Does my shrine look good?

[echo roost]

@plain forge thanks! I love your use of cliffs and lighting at night 😍

[unkempt fractal]

Just finished the teraforming of my island, how do you think it is?

[woven drift]

Freshhh

[wooden nimbus]

@echo roost sorry phone photo but here’s my leadup to my house

well, what it looked like in summer at least

[pastel pine]

cute

I finished my shrine a while ago,
So here it is

[heavy pivot]

had no idea what to do with this area right to the left of my entrance, but with a big batch of spare pumpkins from my friend and after-midnight boredom, i accidently turned it into a full blown pumpkin patch!!

[pastel pine]

Wow!

[fast vale]

Wanted to share my cute farm and greenhouse :3

[heavy pivot]

cute!!

[fast vale]

Thank you!! 🥰

[wispy phoenix]

Hey im wondering if anyone has some ideas for this spot... im happy with it but it feels a bit empty...

[pastel pine]

maybe a bamboo lunch box?

[smoky wyvern]

Put the sakura picnic set, i think it would look so cute!

[echo roost]

@wooden nimbus thanks! Love how vibrant your house looks 🥰

LF Entrance ideas

[slender wadi]

Anyone got ideas for a theme like this? Please dm me, just got to 3 stars yesterday!

Can anyone help 😦

[viscid patio]

It looks perfect already

[delicate sand]

So… should I add a 4th house to my island?? 😭 I want to make it a creepy church/haunted house. But am I being extra lol. I have all these accounts on my switch now and there’s only two of us in the house lol

[viscid patio]

@slender wadi Maybe a bamboo forest with a bunch of pink flowers would really nice

@delicate sand I think you should go for it. But you have to remember that adding another house is permanent

[delicate sand]

@viscid patio so I can’t delete the character later?

[woven drift]

Can’t you remove a different resident?

[viscid patio]

@delicate sand Nope even if you delete the account that the character is on the house is still there

[woven drift]

I thought only the island representative can’t be removed.

[viscid patio]

Nope

[woven drift]

Hm. When I had a resident, I wanted to remove them and their house was gone.

[delicate sand]

Well told would be a player account

[viscid patio]

How did you do that twig

[woven drift]

Isn’t it possible to remove a player account?

[delicate sand]

I don’t know 😭 I’ve never tried.

[woven drift]

I just did that and their house was gone.

[viscid patio]

It is but u heard it doesn’t work

[delicate sand]

Okay interesting

[viscid patio]

Huh I guess that’s the only way

[delicate sand]

So you’re saying if i ever need to delete the house I have to delete the whole account, not just the character save? Okay good to know!

[woven drift]

@delicate sand Well if you want to know better, go to #game-help-questions❓

[deft glen]

To be clear for everyone, to delete an extra player house you have to delete the account from the switch

[viscid patio]

What do you guys think of this

[delicate sand]

Thanks everyone!!

@viscid patio that is so cute

[viscid patio]

Thanks!

[vernal oxide]

@delicate sand @woven drift @viscid patio you can remove a resident and it does remove their house! I’ve done it personally

[woven drift]

hm. So I was correct.

Well good to know that it does that.

[viscid patio]

Oh ok I heard from someone that that didn’t work

I guess they were wrong

@woven drift

People who made their residential area or anything else on the 2nd level, what did you do to add more dimension to the areas? (for example: cliffs) I am struggling with what I should do to avoid making my 2nd level residential area look bland. Images or tips would be appreciated

[woven drift]

Very simple pumpkin patch

can someone please tell me what am i doing wrong? should i make the river smaller???

[plucky torrent]

I feel like cherry’s garden is missing something but idk what

[viscid patio]

More flowers

[sturdy ore]

can someone please tell me what am i doing wrong? should i make the river smaller???
@woven drift Make it smaller, it's too wide

[viscid patio]

Yep

[woven drift]

@woven drift Make it smaller, it's too wide
@sturdy ore still doesn’t work

[viscid patio]

That’s too wide I think

Go to #game-help-questions❓

[tidal pebble]

Came together nicely 🖤

[spark dune]

@tidal pebble so cute!!

[tidal pebble]

Thanks took me forever to find and commit to a path

[cedar abyss]

The pumpkin patches make my Kakariko Village look so much better 🥰

[potent schooner]

@woven drift it’s the ttree or the fact that there is only one block wide of cliff next to the bridge

[flint obsidian]

Does anyone have an entrance idea. My resident services is far from the airport

[sudden grail]

what island theme do u have @flint obsidian

[flint obsidian]

@sudden grail there really isn’t a theme

[sudden grail]

like urban, cottagecore, fairycore, kidcore, tropical resort, nature

bc it will depend on that

like my island is a nature/tropical resort so my entrance is small and simple with an outdor visitor center

[flint obsidian]

I guess you can say it’s an urban because it’s really developed. I’m also trying to go for a river canal don’t know if that helps

[sudden grail]

aahhhh

[neon glen]

@flint obsidian this is mine if this helps

o it didnt send. sry

[sudden grail]

that looks so cute @neon glen

[neon glen]

ty !

[flint obsidian]

Don’t know if this helps @sudden grail

[void verge]

Flattened for the third time and doing a new theme 🤦‍♂️ still a WIP

[tidal pebble]

Another entrance for inspo

[light igloo]

Has anyone made the outside of their nooks Halloween themed, could I see for inspiration? ☺️🎃

[junior berry]

What do you guys think of my farm area? 🙂

[tidal pebble]

I love gardening areas good job

[dim mango]

this area is probably the pride+joy of my island whilst i'm renovating rn

[red folio]

Well I need to plant some normal trees or I’m not gonna have any mushrooms 😂

Apparently they don’t grow around coconut trees 🤷‍♂️

[neon glen]

it wouldnt make much sense if it did

[inland bay]

mushrooms start to appear in november right

[vernal oxide]

@flint obsidian my entrance is far from RS!

[pale hazel]

My garden area 🙂

[balmy swallow]

Can you guys tell me your opinions on this?

[mental rain]

Lf: entrances that have tons of roses at stuff. Something new. I've done waterfalls and everything just looking for something different :-) my town name is rosehaven :-)

[remote palm]

@balmy swallow i think its beautiful!

[coarse fable]

I think its great its a small little area so I cant tell much but I think it looks good @balmy swallow

[bleak wind]

@mental rain My entrance has roses 🙂

[mental rain]

@bleak wind that is gorgeous

That's literally it. Thank you so much! So cute! I'd love to see your island sometime if that is your entrance! Lol

[balmy swallow]

I like how its natural and symmetrical at the same time

[mental rain]

I bet your island looks amazing omg

[balmy swallow]

My patience could never—

I know you didnt ask for my opinion, but it looks really beautiful 🤩

[bleak wind]

Aw, thank you, @mental rain ! I've recently been redecorating my entire island but you're more than welcome to visit my DA if you'd like 😄

Anyone else who wants to visit can too

[mental rain]

Yay!!

[balmy swallow]

I would love to. What’s the dream address?

[bleak wind]

I'll dm you my dream adddress 🙂

[mental rain]

Yes please me too:-)

[carmine depot]

Hey guys what are your island themes? I want to go for European/rural European but at this point I’m just looking for inspo!

[balmy swallow]

Fairycore

[bleak wind]

@balmy swallow and @mental rain I'll message you both my DA 😄

[balmy swallow]

Ok thanks 🙂

[mental rain]

I've restarted my islands 5 times and I've had pretty much all the themes lmao

[balmy swallow]

Wow. 5! You have a lot of patience

[mental rain]

I'm never satisfied. I get it completley done and then start all over again.

[steady palm]

Hey, what have you guys done on the grass near the beachfront?

[mental rain]

I just feel like all my islands lacked oomph so to speak.

Elle ive done a boardwalk and stalls and stuff.

[balmy swallow]

Hey, what have you guys done on the grass near the beachfront?
@steady palm
Mines empty. What have YOU done with it?

I flattened thats why I’m still developing my island

[steady palm]

Nothing yet, my town is still pretty empty tbh

[neon glen]

i made a little santorini area on the grass near the beach

[woven drift]

if anyone has suggestions for a cute nature / fairy themed island please tell/show

[bleak wind]

So I did this 👉 👈

Trying to make the outside of my nooks halloweeny, any ideas of what else I could add? 🥴🎃

[rapid glade]

does anyone have any ideas on what to add to a small empty space next to nooks? (i have another small empty space next to ables on the other side too)

[carmine epoch]

@light igloo oh I love the little pumpkin carving section! That’s clever.

[west sparrow]

@light igloo add the pumpkin carriage as well, maybe a section with cakes?

[light igloo]

@carmine epoch thank you!! @west sparrow ooooh that’s a good idea actually, thank you! ☺️

[zenith roost]

Finished cliffs behind Chief's farm Pretty happy w/ the how the perspective turned out

[clear laurel]

I'm planning on remodeling my entire island, but I'm wondering where to put the trees. Can anyone help?

[obsidian crown]

I did an orchard for my trees and bamboo I did a bamboo pathway lining the path

[clear laurel]

I meant where to put the trees when I'm making my island a clean slate, but thank you for the suggestion

[obsidian crown]

I just had to move mine a little at a time in my inventory

[ebon rune]

Hey guys, is there any way to block people in so they cant roam my whole island?

Do I literally have to put a fence around the entire island

To prevent swimming

[neon glen]

yes

[crisp onyx]

a lil dragon site ✨

[wary raptor]

I just want someone’s opinion or multiple peoples but whenever you look at islands or layouts is it prettier when all the houses are on one side of the map or is it prettier with them spread out a little over the map?

And that’s actually really pretty ^^

[woeful ravine]

does anyone have any ideas on what i should put here? it's near a graveyard :))

[west pasture]

What do I do next

[woeful ravine]

I just want someone’s opinion or multiple peoples but whenever you look at islands or layouts is it prettier when all the houses are on one side of the map or is it prettier with them spread out a little over the map?
@wary raptor

it depends! i have multiple villages with the houses because my island has different themes, and some of the houses are spread out around the map, just go with what you think fits the most? <3

[west pasture]

One side

If you would like it to be organized I would prefer one side

[wary raptor]

I want them all to have like little spaces for flowers and stuff so maybe spread out would be a good idea

[woven drift]

would it be better to have them all on one side for a natural / fairy theme or more spread out?

[woeful ravine]

spread out imo @woven drift

[woven drift]

okiedokie ^^ thank you

[woeful ravine]

np!

[bleak wind]

so im doing a fall market i have pumpkin carving table, apple cider booth, witches brew booth, halloween treat stand, and a pumpkin pie booth im stumped for the last corner anyone have any ideas
@obsidian crown What about a fruit stand for the final one?

[solar shuttle]

@woeful ravine maybe a rock garden?

@clear laurel I chopped mine down lol

[dawn marsh]

Can i have cottage core ideas for my pumpkin farm?

@woven drift can i see pics of your outdoor library?

@woeful ravine a pumpkin patch maybe?

[woven drift]

Sure !😀@uneven inlet

Do I have a good map? :0

[torn geode]

That ain't even a map?

[clear yew]

Hey‼️I need some people to come to my island and just lmk what you think of it lol. The land is literally ready and fully decorated and we’re currently working on the beaches and you know...I’d like some feedback ^^.
It’s a 5 star NH island. It an all populated wolf island and we have like a modern/contemporary theme 🤷🏻‍♂️. We are very into symmetrical stuff...so we wanted everything to look you know “square-like” and everything to be connected. So lmk if you wanna come🙋🏻‍♂️ Stores are open‼️

[flat lily]

@clear yew I would suggest trying in #690093605821480980 or #mysterybags-and-yardsales if you're also advertising stores & stuff too !

[torn geode]

What the heck can I do with this area of my island? It’s right above my beach, to the left of my south rivermouth, and directly south east of resident services

[craggy junco]

I made an ice cream shop at my beach where I had a big free area ^^

you could do that, would look nice on ground or 1st level if you want more life to it

[torn geode]

This is the area directly below that if it would help a little with theming

[craggy junco]

oh yea you said it's dark-themed?

[torn geode]

An ice cream shop sounds like a good idea, but I don’t really think it would fit my island theme
I’ll consider it for another area of my island though

Yeah! Dark/natural forest theme, throwing a few mushrooms in here and there

[craggy junco]

then maybe just a bench and dark flowers, or trees and a well? Or 1-2 stalls with barrels etc

[torn geode]

A well sounds like a fantastic idea! I hadn't even thought about it. Thank you so much!

[craggy junco]

np I'm glad I could help! :0

[supple solstice]

Hello fellow animal crossing people! So there’s this bit of space next to my butterfly maze that I have no idea what to do with and it’s driving me crazy every time I walk past it because nothing’s there. Can somebody help me with what I should put there? I’m open to all ideas. Thanks!

[tidal wyvern]

what about a mini butterfly forest?

[zealous gust]

Working on my Pumpkin Patch :)

[red folio]

Nice! Add in some scarecrows if you can @zealous gust

Maybe a bench or something and some seed bags

[twin pollen]

Hi i'm looking for some acnh friends with the online membership

@twin pollen If you visit #721542917264638002 , you can learn how to gain access to our online channels! This will allow you to see more channels with people who have the online membership

[sharp jetty]

@supple solstice What I would do is: turn that place into a small seaviewing place with benches and custom deisgn tiles and more (different) fencing. Remove 1 fencing from your butterfly park and make a path between it^^

@drowsy python Thanks, Ac and diagonals just don't mix well lmao

[drowsy python]

Hahaha yep

Also if anyone needs inspiration for a pink aesthetic/urban island I updated my dream code: DA-2201-5925-3255

[livid vessel]

@warped umbra I think the lower part of your star should be parallel to the upper part that should make it more even

[warped umbra]

@warped umbra I think the lower part of your star should be parallel to the upper part that should make it more even
@livid vessel Show me what you mean? 😂 thanks!

[livid vessel]

Ah ok I’ll try my best to show 😅 brb

[warped umbra]

I'm not worried too much about symmetry but I'm trying to make it not look sloopy at least lol

[green thistle]

[livid vessel]

I honestly tried my best but yeah it turned out quite irregular too😅 @warped umbra

[knotty walrus]

[obsidian crown]

maybe a bench nearby for reading

[heavy pivot]

posted this really late last night but im really happy with it, but here's the pumpkin patch i decided to make on a empty spot to the left of my entrance!!

[obsidian crown]

nice! i like it

[indigo carbon]

what path is that one? everybody seems to be using it.

[neat gyro]

Finally made my pumpkin patch

[obsidian crown]

i like how its on the side of the water with the fence next to it

[opal skiff]

currently working on a new entrance for my island, it's definitely not done yet but I like how it's turning out so far!

what do you guys think about this blood path overlay? not sure if i should tweak it!

[unborn rose]

Do you guys have anything for your own house? Like the one that you have to pay off and stuff. Just looking for inspo.

[random zenith]

Made some progress.

Awww! Lolly is a sweetie. I just finally got her on my island a few weeks ago.

Hi! I need ideas for a layout for mine and cherry's house to be next to each other and still look cute and nature-y. Any suggestions?

[upbeat crag]

[whole spoke]

could anyone help me out getting a cottage theme going??

[serene pasture]

I hate this so muchhhhh It doesn’t line up by 1 inch 🥺This game needs a grid or sum

[craggy junco]

just make a path to the campsite so it goes in from the path, then you got left and right to put sth like a chair or storage

and a tree in between the cs and museum

[pseudo musk]

Should I put a pond, cemetery or something else here, what do you think 🤔 💭

[craggy junco]

I'd vote pond since it's the museum

[pseudo musk]

Ok yeah! Let’s seee...

[wet bluff]

What do you guys think of my pumpkin patch?

[weary crane]

for all my “the path” users, is the circle space where the tree and flowers are possible with the original variation? i feel like i’ve tried every way to make this work and i just cant get it so i’m not sure if i just need another path that allows it or if i’m just dumb LOL

[manic sigil]

@weary crane yeah its possible

at least with the version i use

[pseudo musk]

Ok here’s my rough draft, I think it’ll look good!

[woven drift]

Do you use the original version tho

[weary crane]

would you mind sending me that version please? i’ve tried it every way with the original one and it’s not happening @manic sigil

[manic sigil]

mine's a stone version so idk if itll work for you :(

[weary crane]

i can at least look at the pieces and test it! thank you so much!!! <3

[viral whale]

Hey has anyone done a little pumpkin patch for Halloween yet?

[wet bluff]

Yes!

I just posted a picture a few minutes ago if you wanna see

[manic sigil]

@weary crane after looking at your path i think its the non curvy pieces, so like middle top, middle left, middle bottom, and middle right

[jaunty phoenix]

wow u guys r so creative !

[manic bone]

does anyone have any ideas on what I can put and do for my beaches? struggling bc I have no clue what to do with them and I feel like leaving them empty is super boring :((

[hardy lance]

cafe's always good, or spa, or tiki bar

or waste disposal near the rocks, or music area

[weary crane]

ahhhh thank you!!!! idk why but i kept trying it with the curvy pieces and the corners, i appreciate ur help so much @manic sigil

[azure orbit]

I was wondering i I could get some feedback on a map layout? I'm looking for some input because i'm a bit unsure about what I want to do for a map layout? I'm going for a more forest/witchy theme?

[hearty gull]

So I’m making this cemetery... do you think i should have that hole with the ladder or not?

[serene whale]

Any Halloween designs

[last ferry]

Hey can anybody send there nooks and ables design outside

[ornate meadow]

How can I make my train area look better?

[last ferry]

I’m stuck

[wet bluff]

So I’m making this cemetery... do you think i should have that hole with the ladder or not?
@hearty gull I'd definitely keep the hole with the ladder, it looks awesomw

[hearty gull]

@ornate meadow Looks super cool to me!

@wet bluff Thank you!

[wet bluff]

@azure orbit I think it looks really good so far!

[dusk abyss]

@ornate meadow ooh, I like the train tunnel concept! Looks great so far, maybe just add some decor around it

[wet bluff]

How can I make my train area look better?
@ornate meadow perhaps a second row of tracks? Though I'm not so sure tbh, but it loos really cool so far

[dusk abyss]

maybe like an industrial bench spot, not sure?

[ornate meadow]

@dusk abyss do you think floor lights? Or some kind of light in the stalls?

[knotty peak]

i think maybe some plants or flowers around it would make it more natural

[lament pagoda]

I want to open more space on my island. I didn't change the original design much but now I've decided to work on it. I'm going for a forest/resort look but I feel like the trees are taking a bunch of space. How many fruit trees of each type should I have? 3, 5? Also should I get rid of one of the rivers? I was thinking of removing the river on the left. I'm new at this so I'm definitely lost.

[barren mesa]

@ornate meadow if you have simple panels maybe you could use a custom design on them to build an outdoor train station.

[azure orbit]

@wet bluff thank you! I'm going to make it all look less...rectangular but i didn't know how to convey that on the map designer

[hearty gull]

@lament pagoda You could remove one of the rivers or both, and then put in new ones later that go whatever way you want it to, according to how everything else is layed out.

[wet bluff]

@lament pagoda you honestly don't necessarily need every kind of fruit tree if you don't want to, but if you do I'd say about 3-4 of each kind scattered across your island might look nice, maybe mix in a bunch of normal and pine trees as well

You can try relocating the river, making it flow a little different than originally, but you could also get rid of it entirely! That's totally up to you, I'd suggest experimenting a bit c:

[lament pagoda]

Thanks for the help! @hearty gull @wet bluff

[zealous gust]

I don't think you need more than one fruit tree each on a island, I personally made a small decoration featuring one of each, I don't have enough space in this game to have a lot of trees. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/690457196479119380/731710153925197935/1_32.png

[lament pagoda]

That's a good idea. Maybe I should leave just one of each for now and then see what happens later on.

[wet bluff]

Yeah you can always still grow new ones if you want

[dawn sonnet]

@last ferry Here u go

[last ferry]

@dawn sonnet thanks Mate

[azure orbit]

@zealous gust that is a really cute area for the trees!

[zealous gust]

Thank you!

Here it is at night https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/690457196479119380/731710167455891506/1_34.png

@last ferry np

[torn geode]

I made a little area for one of my villagers and a small pumpkin patch - which house looks like it fits best?
1 - Coco
2 - Pashmina
3 - Fauna

[azure orbit]

oo that is pretty at night!

[zealous gust]

I really like my fruit island and it freed up a TON of space

[dawn sonnet]

@zealous gust im gonna mae somthing like that i already made some of these tgemed hills on my island and i have some space for it too. im gonna remove my other fruit trees and do one like this there.

[zealous gust]

Awesome! Ping me when you do

[pseudo musk]

Finished my blue pond area!

[azure orbit]

@zealous gust it's giving me ideas for what to do with my fruit trees cause Ir eally don't use them for anything other than decoration and to move trees or break rocks and it would free up that space next to my townhall for other things besides a huge orchard

[zealous gust]

Exactly, once you have a design for a few of them, it doesn't feel bad to chop down the rest of them

[azure orbit]

@pseudo musk that's adorable

[pseudo musk]

@azure orbit thanks!

[azure orbit]

it also makes a cute little water area/feature as well

[wet bluff]

@pseudo musk that's really cute!

[lost storm]

These are my Halloween spots! In the last one (orange) I wanna add some mage clothes, maybe a spooky standing lamp (I just need to find the diy)
I don't really know how to use the Halloween diy, any suggestions?

[pseudo musk]

Thanks! Took me a while...

[zealous gust]

Very cute little spot @lost storm

[woven drift]

I'm still working on my island, (I updated this little area a bit but I still love this picture I took) I hope you enjoy it too! 🤍

[dawn sonnet]

My island map right now:
any more ideas? (where and what)
can move pond

[celest turret]

My road building skills leave a lot to be desired

i love that area where your campsite and museum are @dawn sonnet

[wet bluff]

I need to get these shroom lamps

[pseudo musk]

I like it!

[karmic storm]

need a little help making the cliffs not look so awkward

[dawn sonnet]

check out some generated in-game terrain, and study it, try to get inspiration! It helped me a lot!
@karmic storm

[tribal cargo]

pretty proud of bunnie's home, i really like how close she lives to the river and the museum ^^

[dawn sonnet]

thats cute

[pseudo musk]

Cute!

[dawn sonnet]

can you please put down that one tile, it annoys me lol

[pseudo musk]

It’s not here to Be scemetrical

[tribal cargo]

can you please put down that one tile, it annoys me lol
@dawn sonnet yeah, i kinda just wanted it to be symmetrical on both sides bc of the tree lol

[dawn sonnet]

oh

[pseudo musk]

That’s my guess at least

[dawn sonnet]

i think its better to put down, maybe move the tree if its not right

[pseudo musk]

Yea that’s prolly still look better

[dawn sonnet]

maybe move it 1 tile to the right

[zealous gust]

Just put a barrel or something cute there

[dawn sonnet]

yes

[misty palm]

Will pay someone 50k bells if they can come to my island and give some ideas for an empty space. Really struggling

[dawn sonnet]

no

i dont need money. show me a map

[outer lichen]

anyone have any ideas on a fall entrance? I'm struggling on getting started lol

[misty palm]

On the right to my beach

[dawn sonnet]

this is my entrance. maybe switch some stuff out with mush and fall diys

On the right to my beach
@misty palm that green spot?

[tribal cargo]

@misty palm maybe add an outdoor movie theatre? those are cute, or a little market area if you don't already have one

[misty palm]

Yes. I have a movie theatre and a market 🙁

[dawn sonnet]

cafe

[tribal cargo]

^^^^

[misty palm]

I have that to 🙁

[wet bluff]

How about a library or stargazing spot?

[dawn sonnet]

diner

[outer lichen]

oh that's cool @dawn sonnet I also want to incorporate the Halloween arch i got today

[tribal cargo]

how about a garden or a halloween maze?

[dawn sonnet]

oh that's cool @dawn sonnet I also want to incorporate the Halloween arch i got today
@outer lichen wait a sec, gonna send u newer pics of it

[wet bluff]

Or maybe something like a divers school, where there could be little stalls that sell diving gear or something

[outer lichen]

okay sounds good

[misty palm]

I have a statue garden and a maze. A diner might work

Thankyou

[dawn sonnet]

one question how the heck are you able to fit that many things on an island?

[burnt osprey]

Finally got a spooky carriage and put it to use😍😍

[dawn sonnet]

@outer lichen ok here u go
first picture is the entrance, second is the hill behind (showing map so you can see it from above)

[zealous gust]

I LOVE IT

[azure orbit]

that is so cute and spooky!

[hollow bear]

Hey All, just started to tool around on a new island design. Here is the first draft, can i get some feedback?

[dawn sonnet]

trees not yet grownd cedars if you wonder
like 2 or 3

[outer lichen]

awesome that really helps. I like the trees on the cliffs cause i really want a fall theme

or something similar to a fall theme

[dawn sonnet]

also you can always check it out in dreams!

[outer lichen]

true. that's what i was planning to do right now actually

[dawn sonnet]

oh nice

its somehow a 5 star island lol

[outer lichen]

i like the fall/spooky theme, but i don't want to go too crazy and then it becomes cottegecore ya know?

[dawn sonnet]

yes

[burnt osprey]

I’m making a seasonal Halloween area so going to change that area every season

[dawn sonnet]

you will know what is enough when you do it.

[burnt osprey]

I feel like I’m going to be sad getting rid of the areas each season tho😅 because when I make something I don’t like getting rid of it

[dawn sonnet]

@hollow bear i think you could work on those cliffs a bit. looks nice

i made the hill at my entrance seasonal too

[rustic rover]

Yeah you don't want it to become cottagecore so I recommend not using the path tbh sometimes the path takes it too far to the point where it's cottagecore

[outer lichen]

ah good call. i was about to use the path. thanks a ton

[dawn sonnet]

First i was so annoyed cuz of my town hall placement. but then i made this entrance and now its not that frustrating

[neon glen]

@outer lichen u could always use a halloween themed version of the path. theres many variants !

[dawn sonnet]

also, weeds dont count badly towards your island score! go wild with them

[rustic rover]

Oh yeah

[hollow bear]

Hey @dawn sonnet, anything in particular about the cliffs?

[rustic rover]

There are some really cool halloween versions, i found this cool black one I could share!

[outer lichen]

oh that's true @neon glen i didn't even think about that

[dawn sonnet]

Hey @dawn sonnet, anything in particular about the cliffs?
@hollow bear theyare kinda unnatural, maybe smooth out the pointy edges
also, separate them, dont make one big cliff, make more smaller ones

[wet bluff]

Hey since y'all are pretty good at giving advice, does anyone have any suggestions of how I could arrange these three houses better? I do wanna redecorate everything, so it's a little messy rn.
The plateau isn't big enough to get them all in a row, and I'm not entirely sure if I should just move the lower one a little to the left? What do you guys think?

[dawn sonnet]

ok just cuz everyone is talking about halloween theme now, show me your CAMPSITES

[hollow bear]

i'll give it another shot then! Thanks for the tips 🙂

[wet bluff]
