island-designs

[tired river]

Tearing down and rebuilding over and over again it okay. Most of my time was rebuilding Tbh

Does anyone have advice for how to separate big areas of your island into small areas without fences

[burnt osprey]

My island is kinda flat and sometimes I feel like it’s a bad thing cause of everyone else’s islands being so terraformed but I love everything I’ve made on my island

Exactly I have so many areas that’s why it’s so flat haha

[subtle jetty]

yoga pose lets me be part of my own statue garden

as long as i dont move ill be safe

[tired river]

Hey does anyone have ideas for breaking up large areas into smaller areas without using fences?

[woven drift]

@tired river i’ve been terraforming waterfalls and cliffs to break up my larger areas it adds natural effect too

[tired river]

Do you have pictures of it? I just don’t know what to add

[loud grail]

I have this area of my island in front of Chrissy and Francine's homes and I cannot figure out what to do with it. I terraformed a bunch of my island prior and im so burnt out on ideas 😭

[tired river]

I’m in a similar boat!

[mossy cobalt]

My outdoor library

[loud grail]

Ahhh so pretty!

[woven drift]

Are the books waterproof

[hardy willow]

Does it go up to the second level? That's so pretty

[slim dove]

looks like a good place for a fruit orchard? or maybe fairy/mushroom forest

[woven drift]

wait how did u terraform incline that way ? @mossy cobalt

[mossy cobalt]

Yeah it has a small second area for piano

[loud grail]

I actually have a small fruit orchard at the top left!

[slim dove]

or a market place bc i think they look really good when you incorporate the beach into it

[loud grail]

But fairy and mushroom forest sounds cute!

[hardy willow]

Nicee. Before I ripped apart my island I had a much less intricate outdoor library. I added an espresso machine for any villager that needed a pick me up for some studying 😁

[tired river]

Any ideas for right here?

[mossy cobalt]

My villagers never visit my library. So sad!!

[woven drift]

@loud grail my entrance is fairy mushroom forest 🌳

[slim dove]

@tired river what do you already have?

[loud grail]

Oooh do you have pictures??

[tired river]

I don’t have anything in that area

[hardy willow]

Mine did only once or twice. I have ungrateful villagers 🥲

[woven drift]

@loud grail

[slim dove]

but like in ur whole island, i could give you heaps of suggestions but idk what you already have/what kind of theme ur going for

[tired river]

I’m going for a natural woods theme with some modern elements, I have a music area, fishing area, library on my island currently

[slim dove]

it’s a pretty large area

[tired river]

Yeah and there’s even more space to the right. I just don’t know how to separate it and I don’t like separating with fences

[slim dove]

i seperate places naturally with trees/bushes

[tired river]

Do you have any examples?

[slim dove]

not super separated but i kinda just made a tree border around goldies house

[tired river]

I always find inspo on Twitter I’ll check there too lmao

[slim dove]

if i had a large area like you do, personally i would make it into bamboo forest bc there are heaps of bamboo diys/decor and add some waterfalls&ponds

[tired river]

Good idea! Thank you

[slim dove]

like a zen garden, & they even have sand QR code’s

sometimes it just takes a while to think of inspo tho lol, just leave it and come back if you’re really stuck

[tired river]

Thanks!

[slim dove]

happy to help 😁

[subtle jetty]

built some new houses :]

[glad pilot]

this was made very badly on the happy island designer site so its not the most accurate in terms of airport design and secret beach and stuff but that do you think of my plan for my island

it'll look 100x better in game than anything i could do on that site

[subtle jetty]

looks cool i think

[molten thicket]

[pseudo beacon]

Omg that’s so creative

Now I’m gonna make that too if you don’t mind 👀

[silk wind]

I love the red and orange trees

[woven drift]

the yellow mush lamps look so cute @silk wind

[zenith dust]

anyone have a cute hous exterior?

[unique furnace]

@teal dawn i know this is incredibly late but here's my layout for similar river openings

not intricate, but i went for more of a town look

[glad pulsar]

Finally someone came to my completed campsite! (I forgot to add another cedar up by the ducks 🤦🏼‍♀️)

[left vine]

can someone give constructive criticism on sherb’s yard? im stuck and not happy with it but don’t know what to change/add

[unique furnace]

@left vine i think all ya need is maybe a nice sitting area in that empty space up front

[teal dawn]

@left vine add a little fishing pond below

That area has tons of potential

[left vine]

ty! i was so happy when i terraformed it but now i’m so stumped lol

i’ll try adding some water and seating and see how i feel 🙂

[soft flame]

When you guys plan out your islands, do you do the roads first or something else?

[unique furnace]

i usually outline some roads first, tweek it as i go

[idle shadow]

@soft flame usually people terraform first then make the pathway but it’s all up to u!

[soft flame]

Ah ok, thanks

[woven drift]

I started with my paths then terraformed around them, i found that easier

[somber bluff]

Thoughts on my island?

[woven drift]

How would I go about using stalls to make a horse barn?

[opaque epoch]

Ooh!

terrible quality but made this little nook above the able sisters

[regal prairie]

That's so pretty!!

[opaque epoch]

Thank you! Im excited to see what it’ll look like in snow

[regal prairie]

you'll definitely have to send pictures i bet it'll look amazing

[opaque epoch]

Will do!!

[void flame]

my nooks

[woven drift]

Does this look good for a horse barn?

[gentle flower]

My island entrance so far, I might add hyacinth lamps once I get my hands on them 🙂

[slim dove]

I have a small section behind goldies&bones houses and i’m not sure what to put there, the beach is also empty so it can include both

[gentle flower]

You make a surf shop @slim dove and put little beach towels or beach chairs in the sand.

[sacred siren]

The amount of path present scares even me

The grid area on the top left is a placeholder if another building is added

[rough portal]

Would anyone mind showing pictures of how they layout their villager’s homes? I need ideas on how to set some of mine up

[left vine]

i think it’s getting better! still looking for suggestions though lol

[woven drift]

blue couches? sofas or seating areas with blue or white? @left vine

blue and white rattan chair i believe

[limber ginkgo]

museum is starting to come together! I flattened it because my old layout felt too symmetrical

[sudden dove]

I really like my entrance so far!

[woven drift]

can someone halp me with my museum entrance. i wanted to a dreamy library 📚 type wip

[uneven falcon]

can i see outdoor areas for audie? i need inspo

[limber ginkgo]

@uneven falcon I had a mix of mermaid stuff and pink exercise stuff for audie

[gentle flower]

@woven drift you should find some dark wood paths to make or the one that’s already on acnh and make the floor like a library.

[woven drift]

yes that helps sm i knew it was missing something

[teal karma]

can anyone send their island entrances? just destroyed my entire island and looking for inspo ;;

[woven drift]

Scroll up a bit, there should be some entrances

[grim halo]

This is mine

[severe wedge]

Anyone know how to make my map more detailed and less square?

I just feel like it’s so unrealistic

[lavish pulsar]

@teal karma

[teal karma]

thank u! urs is so nice

[lavish pulsar]

thank you 🙂

have fun re-doing your island!

[woven drift]

I have a question on how I should do my entrance. I started recently on fixing up my island and i want to work on my entrance but idk what to put. If I post a picture of my entrance then can someone maybe suggest something?

[lavish pulsar]

sure!

[woven drift]

Also don’t mind my character he looks bad lol

I’m going to get rid of the flowers btw

[lavish pulsar]

Hm Idk if its to late, but maybe move the buildings further away

[woven drift]

I mean I can but idk where to

I can try to find a place

Also to the left is the fruit tree section there’s a bridge leading to a island

[lavish pulsar]

nice

work on the island and worry about the buildings later

[woven drift]

Yes

[lavish pulsar]

so do the landscaping and other stuff

[woven drift]

I’m doing like a path style

I like paths

But what do you think I should do for my entrance

[lavish pulsar]

maybe a peninsula with flowers ?

[woven drift]

Penisula?

What’s that

[lavish pulsar]

a piece of land surrounded by water

[woven drift]

Ohhh

[severe wedge]

Peninsula

[woven drift]

Wait where would i put the water at

[lavish pulsar]

around your entrance

[woven drift]

Hmm

That could work

Actually I like that idea

I’ll try it out

[neon glen]

[woven drift]

But I kinda want to work on my characters outfit lol

[severe wedge]

TALENT

[woven drift]

THATS SO PRETTY OMG

[neon glen]

aaa TYSM

[upper frost]

Lovely use of custom designs! Wish we got more design slots in the most recent update though cuz all mine are filled rip.

[neon glen]

such a mood id love more custom design slots

[woven drift]

Looking for villager ideas I wanna decorate their house but am not sure looking for some inspiration

[upper frost]

That's an adorable market place actually!

[lavish pulsar]

thank you!

ive really never liked flowers but now i think they make the island look so much better

and they raise your island rating by a ton

[severe wedge]

Im thinking about redoing my entrance. Currently its kind of like a lobby, but im starting to want a more classic entrance with flowers and trees and a path and all that. What do you guys think?

[lavish pulsar]

like it a lot!

[neon glen]

i used to have a more elegant entrance, i'd say go for it

[woven drift]

Bops is this what you meant @lavish pulsar

[lavish pulsar]

good start

[woven drift]

It looks good

[lavish pulsar]

maybe make the land a bit wider

[severe wedge]

Alright ill try it out, thanks!

[woven drift]

Wider?

Wdym by wider

Like get rid of more land for water

[lavish pulsar]

no the opposite

[woven drift]

Add more?

Ok

Does that look better

[lavish pulsar]

yeah

[woven drift]

Wait I got rid of the corner on the left

[severe wedge]

I think they meant put more land

[woven drift]

Yes that’s what I did

You see the corner sticking out

[severe wedge]

Like on the inside

[woven drift]

The inside?

[lavish pulsar]

this is what mine looks like

[severe wedge]

Im pretty sure that was what they meant

[woven drift]

Woah

[lavish pulsar]

thats kinda what im saying

[woven drift]

Ohhh

So that’s why you told me to get move the houses

So I can do the same thing I did to the entrance on where they are

[lavish pulsar]

yeah

[woven drift]

Ok ok I see

[neon glen]

slowly filling my map

[rain glen]

I just need to add a few things to the stalls

[stoic axle]

Woah! That looks awesome

[woven drift]

Omg y’all are so creative 😭

[stoic axle]

@rain glen where did you get that texture for the stall tops?

[rain glen]

I did some digging in #misc-pattern-codes and found one I liked, you can find codes there or ask people if they have any in #custom-design-help🎨

[stoic axle]

Thanks!

[rain glen]

[woven drift]

Oh also idk where to move my shop lol

I wish it was possible to rotate houses

[severe wedge]

Maybe you can do something like this once the peninsula is done

[woven drift]

Or buildings

Oh my god

That looks so amazing

But I think I’ll come up with a different idea

[severe wedge]

Thats Ok im just giving ideas

Thats so cute ahshshsgxuvs

[rain glen]

ty!

[stoic axle]

THATS GORGEOUS!

[severe wedge]

I literally want to live there

[woven drift]

henry is seriously my 🥺 fave.

[lime jasper]

I need help designing the outside of my house

[grave turtle]

Someone is sadly reporting DA’s with the new items

[woven drift]

QwQ all of your islands look so cool and mine is just so bare cause I dont k ow what to do with mins

[worthy sphinx]

does anyone have any island ideas? I made mine flat and now I dont know what to do with it

[warm rover]

Hello

[teal narwhal]

Does anyone know of a cute hidden house idea?

[distant moat]

Which one is better? With log stakes or with fences? 🤔

[zenith idol]

imo log stakes 😳

[woven drift]

log stakes ^

[distant moat]

Alright! thanks!

[ivory ermine]

My entrance is coming along... 😅

[woven drift]

Ooo! That's a great idea for an entrance!

[ivory ermine]

I made the top layer a mini maze to my museum so it's kinda hard to change now. I mostly did the huge cliffs to hide my resident services since it's kinda close

[hardy willow]

That's so cool. I have cliffs and staircases at my entrance also

[woven drift]

Anyone have any ideas on how I can improve my entrance? The giant long flower garden on either side just doesnt look as good to be any more

[little swift]

if you wanna keep that line you could alternate between bushes and fences

[woven drift]

Anyone have pond ideas or inspiration

[ivory ermine]

You could do a pond based on a shape like duck, heart, crescent moon. If you have the room, you could do more of a lakeside area. An O shaped pond with an island in the middle is cute too.

[woven drift]

Ugggh I had the best idea for moving my museum but it means I'll have to completely redo half my island...and move all the villagers' houses

[little swift]

join the crew of redoing whole island 1839189 times

[ivory ermine]

You could add some things to make your entrance taller like maybe trees. You could also make your entrance more bright with garden lamps, street lights, or nova lights. Also, possibly changing the fence to hedges or some other fencing if youre no longer using it for the flower garden

[woven drift]

Okay got the musuem set up nicely, will need to make new paths for it but now I can work on the entrance.

@ivory ermine your suggestions sounds amazing, I'll play around with those, thank you!

[thick goblet]

What else could I add to my entrance

[woven drift]

Is my entrance looking better now

I just need to do the same to the other side

I’m planning on adding flowers too

Definitely having the only flowers at my entrance be Rose's. They just look so magical

Lol I’ll do a rose entrance too

Yass

Oh also this was my entrance before it still has the flowers

Oo that's pretty

I should definitely add more roses lol

Field of roses

Yesss

[warm iris]

Fruit garden

[grim halo]

I made a santas workshop, should I add anything else or is it fine how it is

[woven drift]

Some lights would look nice

[grim halo]

Oh yeah that sounds good ty

[woven drift]

Ok so the other side won’t be as even as the other side sadly

[silver dagger]

Anyone got ideas for this spot? It’s on the top left of my island in between the beach and my campsite

[shrewd egret]

oh cafe? :00

[silver dagger]

good idea! but i have one below :')

[vague helm]

maybe you could have some art there

[shrewd egret]

can anyone help me w designing this little rock circle? i cant think of anything :( also i dont have any more slots for custom designs 😭 i saw a rly cute circle rock tile design, but i cant use ittt

[silver dagger]

i also have an art area as well :')

[shrewd egret]

i have like 3 cafe spots on my island 😆 if ur worried abt it being repetitive, u can try different themes! i saw that someone had a lovers cove leading up to the beach n it was super cute!

hmm mayb a small flower patch? w like a flower shop :)

i think that would b super cute

[woven drift]

I’m done!

What do you guys think

I know it’s kind of basic

[silver dagger]

ohh those are good ideas too!

thank you all for the ideas! I’ll keep them in mind

[silver dagger]

I think it looks really good!

[woven drift]

Thank you!

I just need to add colorful flowers

Which will be roses

Lol

[silver dagger]

Maybe you could put nova lights or star clocks (just change the position to hide the front of the clock)

[silver dagger]

good choice! :>

[woven drift]

Wait wait yes yes yes

On top of the water falls right?

Here? (Sorry for the bad circling lol)

Or should I do a mix of flowers and nova lights

[ivory ermine]

@silver dagger You could possibly put a main focus on that statue of liberty that you have back there and make a very elaborate path leading up to it. Also, putting bushes behind and around it to make it more important looking.
Another idea would be using shell items & sand & making it more of a beach-like area.

[shrewd egret]

i tried but it just looks ✨ bad ✨

[shrewd egret]

im going to plant some cedar trees around this area later but pls if anyone has any idea pls help me design this little rock garden!

[woven drift]

Does anyone have any ideas for my island? For my birthday I’m going to get myself my own switch on my own because I share with my sister, any islands ideas? Just @ me ideas

@shrewd egret just add pathing around it and some greenery and hedges like trees

[shrewd egret]

i'll try, thanks for the suggestion!!
im planning on surrounding the area w cedar trees, or would bamboo look nicer?

[woven drift]

@shrewd egret i would mix both but just cause i like to add variety of textures. cedar and hardwood look 👀 really nice together to me

I’m heading to sleep I’ll figure out where to place my nova lights in the morning

@woven drift yes sprinkle them nova lights everywhere. it will look really nice on top of waterfalls tho 👍✨

Wait hold up

Nvm

Thanks

i like to literally put nova lights everywhere. feels super magical even on the ground. like fallen stars ⭐️

[woven drift]

How is it winter for y’all 🥲

[burnt osprey]

@woven drift different hemispheres have different seasons, so southern has grass now and northern has snow now

[woven drift]

oooooh I see, okay ty!

[burnt osprey]

@shrewd egret just play around with different items, this is what mine looks like

[neon glen]

northern is still in maple season :p so u need to tt for winter rn

[shrewd egret]

i put too much space between my rocks 😭

[woven drift]

Hi guys, I am creating a place on my island for the feast of the first fruits, someone can help me?

[burnt osprey]

Yeah my mistake I’m southern hem so I just assumed u already had snow now, cause of your pics 😅

Hahah don’t worry soon u will have snow!

[woven drift]

What different themed areas do y’all have and island theme as well also how do y’all fit so much in bc I have so many ideas but I haven’t got no more room

Mine is Mainly cottage-core

[glacial fox]

Im trying to do a British themed island, but can't get any ideas >:/

[acoustic flame]

country side or the cities?

[acoustic flame]

mine’s a semi urban japanese and kinda european

[glacial fox]

cities-ish

Im trying to make more of a town than a city

[acoustic flame]

i think i have few references for that

i don’t have much ideas for city side britain but quite few for the coutryside

[glacial fox]

I could try to do a mix of both

[woven drift]

does anyone have any ideas for 1900’s towns?

[acoustic flame]

u could put a “ stone in a sword “too if u want since kinda arthur is popular from britain 👀

[acoustic flame]

not much 😓

[glacial fox]

Welp, time to stock up on red phone booths, wish me luck!

[spark umbra]

I have an area of land that is a bamboo forest right now but it has been there for awhile now. What should I replace it with?

[low frost]

new part of my Island that I recently finished 🌿

[shut depot]

A natural spa , for having inspiration ~

[woven drift]

does anyone have some ideas i could use for a cottage core forest core beach im having trouble doing them photos would be appreciated please

can i please have the codes for the cave i would love to do something like that

[tranquil carbon]

I have this massive area and I have no clue what to do with it, any thoughts?

[severe wedge]

Maybe you could make a river

[distant moat]

I think I'm finished with this area. Added the custom designs and all. What do you guys think? Does it look messy?

[quaint nacelle]

does anyone have a sky/heaven themed island or spot in their island

:>

[low frost]

a foggy morning on Jutengai

[eternal falcon]

aah i love it!!

[real vessel]

Can someone explain to me how this person put a staircase on the edge of their second tier because I'm 99.99% sure you cannot do that.

[wise wadi]

U can. Mine is also at the edge

[zenith mural]

Same here I have one on the edge

[real vessel]

How though. Don't you need 2 pieces of cliff to connect it to?

[wise wadi]

Thats connected to 2

[real vessel]

yes but how did she build on the edge of her cliff

my game doesn't allow me to build on the edge i have to leave a space.

[wise wadi]

I dont think u see the 1 space because of the custom tile but its there. The landing is on the same level as the dirt with flower

[hearty bluff]

you can also terraform next to it

[dim dune]

My god please save me I’m still confused how I wanna make the neighborhood/shop layouts aaaaaaa

[woven drift]

I'll probably be posting almost once a day for a while with very similar questions, so sorry in advance, but I need to place several inclines and bridges, and I have no clue which type to use! I need creative people to tell me the best style for each area, starting with the best incline to get to where my character is standing?

[dim dune]

(I’m still in terraforming and planning)

[real vessel]

I'm staring at this and I genuinely have no idea how she did this.

lol

There's a set of stairs under her and above her and she built on the edge of her second tier which is literally impossible so like...

[dim dune]

A) hacking
B) some sort of glitch that lets you do that

If that is the case, haven’t tried

[zenith mural]

It isn't impossible, if you look up guides online you can see tutorials. I have a bridge exactly like that and have never hacked. I put the bridge and then built the river iirc but that was back in April

[wise wadi]

Theres 1 tile here and between

[real vessel]

i'm not talking about vertically

[zenith mural]

Oh I see the two stairs so close is what you meant!

[real vessel]

you cannot build directly on the edge of your second tier.
https://gyazo.com/f86f4957f05908f2cb490ef414f9a3fc

[wise wadi]

U just need 1 space

[real vessel]

but she doesn't have that one space.

that's my point.

[scenic blaze]

she does, it's the waterfall

[dim dune]

Well that isn’t what it is lmao, there’s water, which is considered to be the first tier

[scenic blaze]

that's totally legal in the game, i have them like that on my island

[real vessel]

ohh wait

Oh i think I see it now.

Jesus christ that's crafty.

[woven drift]

Hey can someone show me there holiday themed yards and any other nice winter holiday esc yards! Thanks!

[wise wadi]

Im on the process of changing everything cuz I chose brick and it doesn't go well with the path types ( unless u do custom)

[tropic helm]

Hey, I am far from done but which one seems better (sorry for interrupting the discussion) ? The one with the stall on top (maybe with something else) or the one with the simple panels ?

[dim dune]

I am suffering trying to figure out my layout hhhh

[woven drift]

@tropic helm the top one

[tropic helm]

Thank you !

[wise wadi]

I also like the top @tropic helm

[peak plover]

just about finished working on my entrance, i’m quite happy with it tbh 😌

[tropic helm]

Thank you !

[wise wadi]

@dim dune the island is never finished. I actually liked mine but now I hate it so everyone went to the beach and I destroyed every bridge and incline

[dim dune]

Okay but I’m still in terraforming and planning so most of my island is literally a wasteland

[woven drift]

Sorry to interrupt, but I'm really struggling on choosing an incline, can someone please tell me the best style to get to where my character is please?

[wise wadi]

I personally like the zen bridge and log staircase

[dim dune]

^^

[wise wadi]

@woven drift i like log staircase

[coarse carbon]

Hi! Can someone show me some pictures of their forest/park please? I need some inspiration! 😊

[dim dune]

But also consider what your “theme” is for the island (doesn’t have to be a specific theme, but a general direction is good)

[wise wadi]

Ya I dont have a theme I just find the wood looks better with the grass and trees

[woven drift]

There isn't really a theme, my priority is to match it to paths... though now I say that, I just figured out the perfect one for the cliff top - natural! This discussion has helped

[dim dune]

That’s why a specific theme isn’t needed, but with general direction I mean sort of on a spectrum, city/manmade to natural/cottagecore ish

[woven drift]

you may have noticed a pond behind the cliff top as well, what would be the best incline to get to the pond from ground tier?

[wise wadi]

Do u know what is going on the cliff?

If its just a pond I would say natural or wood

[woven drift]

So just stick to natural, thanks!

[wise wadi]

Ya its also the cheapest if u want to change it later

Demolishing every brick bridge and incline has hurt the wallet lmao

[woven drift]

XD that's why I wanna get it right first time lol

[real vessel]

tbh i ony like natural log and stone

99% of my inclines are natural

[zenith mural]

Natural and log are my favorites but I do have two brick going to my museum

My island is meant to be a tiny village surrounded by a densely forrested mountain

[real vessel]

I'm going for a natural island theme with some forest here and there so bricks don't work in most places for me

[dim dune]

Same

I’m literally so confused on what to do with the houses and shops right now though, I’ve legit been running around not knowing how or where to start

[real vessel]

ohhh my god i legit like... have no space for the shops.

This is like the 5th time I've redone my island lmao

[woven drift]

just one question... do other villagers actually donate?

[real vessel]

barely

[woven drift]

oh... Ok, guess it's up to me then

[real vessel]

You could pay it off the same day you put it down vs waiting for them. They'll make it take weeks or even a month.

[wise wadi]

Its easier and faster just to take a swim And sell those sea creatures for the money

[woven drift]

don't need to swim. Hot item is iron closet.

[dim dune]

All I know is that I want all of the houses and shops and stuff to be in this general area but I’m not sure... should I have the shops somewhat close to RS? I feel like I should but I’m really not sure, but I don’t want them to be too far away either, and I’m not sure what to do around them argghh

[real vessel]

you should keep it like that it's gorgeous

lmao

[dim dune]

No I mean like, I already flattened the entire island and I’m starting it from scratch, now I’m just unsure how I want the houses to go

[wise wadi]

I like the shops close to RS and the airport for if u allow people over.

[real vessel]

I know I was kidding lol. This is what my island looks like rn and i'm having the same struggle

[wise wadi]

Do u like the neighborhood idea or scattered?

[dim dune]

Trust me when I say that it’s a literal wasteland here rn lmao

[real vessel]

mines is more like a garbage dump

I had a rainbow flower field and I had to move all the flowers so it's just like. flowers and houses everywhere

[dim dune]

Damn

[zenith mural]

Mine is kinda similar with most of the buildings in the bottom right corner

[dim dune]

I recommend moving stuff to the beaches

[real vessel]

my beaches are full of flowers

lmao

[dim dune]

Fair

[woven drift]

how many shops are in NH?

[dim dune]

2 and the museum

[real vessel]

2 shops, 1 campsite, 1 museum.

[dim dune]

Oh right the campsite forgot about that

[woven drift]

thank you!

[distant moat]

I'm working on my island layout and rn it's a big mess-

[sacred siren]

p a t h

[woven drift]

next question, as island rep is it fair that my house, instead of being in the resident area, is directly in front of the airport? Or should I move it? I can put it with my visitor centre or the shops and museum

[sacred siren]

The amount of path scares me on my island

[dim dune]

It scares me too

[distant moat]

o h that is a lot of patha

[naive leaf]

I'm joining team 'Big Mess'

[dim dune]

I just flattened the whole thing ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[wise wadi]

U can put it anywhere u want. Near the airport for convenience or with the others for residential look

[sacred siren]

i never flattened, just removed an entire cliff area and modified a very well placed generated cliff area

[dim dune]

But flattening the entire island can be really intimidating at first because your mind just goes blank so if you ever do that, I recommend knowing roughly what entrance you want and then go from there

[sacred siren]

then of course did other things with cliffs but never flattened

[distant moat]

Anyone wanna see what plans i have for my island? It's a very messy sketch rn so uh-

[sacred siren]

sure

[naive leaf]

Yeah please show us

[wise wadi]

Om not finished but I have all my houses going top right. Mulit tiered neighborhood with bridges between

[woven drift]

Problem is, I already had to adjust my plan slightly just to fit the other residents in the resident area, but if in front of the airport is fine, great!

[sacred siren]

these are some of my houses

it's not a traditional neighborhood

[dim dune]

;000

[distant moat]

For the red areas, i'm not sure if i should build something there or not.

Also, sorry for the bad writing

[woven drift]

I see it as island rep ready to greet

[willow elm]

@naive leaf I would love to have my townhall that far away T.T

[sacred siren]

alright blaze see that forest campsite thingy? that'll need to be bigger

[real vessel]

I'm reporting Marek for harassing me with his island. It's prettier than mine and I feel offended :c

[sacred siren]

always underestimate the size of your forest plan

nah mine is pretty ugly compared to others

[dim dune]

Overestimate*

[real vessel]

I'm also reporting u for being a liar.

[sacred siren]

no you wanna underestimate

always make a bigger forest

[naive leaf]

@willow elm I don't know what to do with it tho 👁️👄👁️

[distant moat]

I see.. i'll just uh.. chop a part of the orchard, then

[dim dune]

Aka overestimate lmao

[sacred siren]

it'll end up being like 8 trees in a small area

make it bigger

also when in doubt place a stall in filler area

[willow elm]

@naive leaf what theme is your island? Do you have any plans?

[sacred siren]

make either a shop or something creative

and you can never go wrong with a graveyard or fossil dig site

[distant moat]

Ooh.. alright.. thanks!

[sacred siren]

this area here is entirely filler

it's a little market area

[dim dune]

Or just be like me, know insanely rough outlines and just wing it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[distant moat]

That looks great! :0

[sacred siren]

i never had any plans going into it

never made any lol sometimes i wish i did

[naive leaf]

Big residential area right, above it an enheightened flower field, museum area and my own house

[sacred siren]

nice

[naive leaf]

The small path to the campsite is meh and the straight river is a big meh

[sacred siren]

you should add a pond or some water by the residential area

[distant moat]

I'll get working on my island tomorrow. It's pretty late where i live rn. Gonna get some rest

[sacred siren]

you could make the river go to the rectangle of water on the top left

[dim dune]

I mean it might seem like a small path to the campsite but it’s gonna seem really long in reality lol

[sacred siren]

and just put a bridge over it

yeah that's a decent campsite path

[dim dune]

That’s why I don’t really like looking at the bigger picture, it’s very difficult to translate everything in game

[naive leaf]

Yeah I get that

[sacred siren]

my campsite area is really crammed

right behind it is just a river/lake, I've been thinking about putting some trees behind parts of it

[dim dune]

My campsite area I wanna make like a big cliff for it at the back of the island, but that’s as far as I’ve planned, and then the rest is just winging it lol

[sacred siren]

and recently i made a smaller camping area right below it

[willow elm]

@naive leaf that looks nice! At the entrance i think you should do something like this, and the paths leads to the shops, I recommend putting the shops near the town hall so it looks more city/urban! I can always come to your island and help you more if you’d like 😄

[sacred siren]

man, everything looks so nice in spring/summer

[dim dune]

I mean it also depends what kind of island they want lmao

[sacred siren]

in every season but everything is ugly in autumn unless the trees are red

true but like generally it always looks great

[willow elm]

Also water falls help make the island look less empty :3

[sacred siren]

unless it's winter themed

[willow elm]

Or make a huge lake

[sacred siren]

my island is just a huge cohesive lake in the middle with paths everywhere

and it has a boardwalk

that summarizes my island

[willow elm]

^

[dim dune]

Fair enough lmao

[naive leaf]

@willow elm that first picture is exactly what I want 😳, it's just that I think it get's in the way with fishing and bug catching

[sacred siren]

sorry for poor image quality but this is like the best looking part of my island in autumn

[woven drift]

I need help-

[sacred siren]

the froggy chair mountain shrine with band area

[willow elm]

@naive leaf well you can have trees elsewhere made for catching bugs, that area can be like a decorative area

[sacred siren]

make it a bar

[woven drift]

I don’t know what to do here and I already have a playground/park, a restaurant, a library/cafe, and a zen area.

[sacred siren]

a flower/greenhouse shop area thing

you can put a tree in the middle and place bugs everywhere

[woven drift]

Alrighty!

[sacred siren]

make it sorta a farmer's market i guess

these are just ideas and arent all one

[woven drift]

My island is also red and white

[dim dune]

You know what, I think I’m gonna put the shops “in” the residential area and not having to worry about putting them close to the airport

[sacred siren]

my airport area i got to look real nice, I put a statue there with marketplace decorations

added wedding benches and flower stands and MORE statues

statues fix everything

too many statues is never too many

[dim dune]

But there’s just a teeeeeeny tiny problem, I put my villager houses in the area I’m gonna have the residential area temporarily so I’m gonna have to move them elsewhere while planning that out

500k down the drain here we go lmao

[willow elm]

@naive leaf heres what I mean, this area is where i catch bugs mostly. I usually just go to islands but if i dont..

[sacred siren]

i didnt design my island for any real function since i already have loads of bells and nearly all the bugs and fish

bugs still elude me since I have absolutely no open grass areas

[dim dune]

Lmao

[sacred siren]

if i do i fill it with paths custom designs and plants

[dim dune]

But yeah same I also didn’t make it for function

[sacred siren]

like this

it hurts me in ways

[dim dune]

I just wanna make it pretty to eventually put it up as a dream island

[sacred siren]

all that space...

[dim dune]

Wait where should I move the houses while planning the residential area

U h h

[naive leaf]

Beaches mostly

[willow elm]

^

[sacred siren]

beaches or something

[dim dune]

Jokes on your my beaches are filled with flowers

[sacred siren]

well then plant them somewhere else

or trash a lot

[dim dune]

Guess I have a tiny bit of space on the beaches so

[sacred siren]

you could just go one house at a time

[dim dune]

What

[naive leaf]

How did you put able sisters and nook in your island?

[dim dune]

But I’m literally just planning my island right now

[sacred siren]

move a house to the beach, make an area for it and decorate it then put it there

dont plan plan it, just have a lot of ideas

[dim dune]

There’s a reason why my island is literally 2 stars lmao

[sacred siren]

oh damn

[dim dune]

I don’t have decorations anywhere

[sacred siren]

my island struggles to load them in

[dim dune]

Damn

[sacred siren]

this is one of my beaches, no house room

again, statues fix everything

[naive leaf]

This wouldn't be possible with bridges, would it?

[dim dune]

Empty land go brrrr

[sacred siren]

it would

[thin drum]

I love looking at what everyone has done with their island

[slender tulip]

Does anyone have any cute fall cottagecore entrances they can send :))

[thin drum]

Can’t come up with something I can stay happy with for the life of me

[sacred siren]

that needs treeeeees, Emma

[naive leaf]

I really love the way the waters works it way down tho Emma

[dim dune]

I know

But as I said, I have no decorations anywhere

that includes trees

[willow elm]

@naive leaf sadly no, they cant be that close

[sacred siren]

well then go destroy multiple miles islands

[dim dune]

N o

[sacred siren]

and then place decorations around the trees you place

[dim dune]

I am planning >;0

[sacred siren]

o k a y

[dim dune]

So right now I’m only terraforming, and then I’ll decorate

While still keeping in mind roughly what I want for that thing

[naive leaf]

How close to the campsite can you plant trees?

[dim dune]

Trees need 1 space apart from any building

[willow elm]

@naive leaf you should just move the bridge somewhere else you could have the bridge at the entrance leading to the park you wanted and then to the rest of the island

[sacred siren]

man, I miss the summer

[woven drift]

@dim dune how do u terraform such amazing natural looking waterfalls 🥺

[dim dune]

@woven drift Aaaa ty-
But what I do is just winging it, making a cliff first and then doing the waterfalls without really changing the cliff, and then don’t try too hard making it look nice or it’ll end up looking man made anyway
But a general rule of thumb is to very rarely make the rivers from the waterfalls be straight, and you don’t have to cut off every edge, sometimes it looks better with a few places not cut off :)

[bleak wind]

Pudge's house/yard (feat. Pudge himself...sweeping 🧹) 😊

[sacred siren]

he seems to hate sweeping

[bleak wind]

lmao why? He seems pretty happy doing it I reckon XD

[sacred siren]

he looks sad

poor Pudge

[dim dune]

Anyway time to move the houses, hopefully I’ll have enough space to move most of them to the beaches

[bleak wind]

Ah, maybe it's all the leaves, @sacred siren . He's tired of clearing them all the time 😂

[sacred siren]

makes sense

they must all get blown to him

[bleak wind]

I'm convinced they do tbh 😔

Poor little guy

[sacred siren]

he's committed though

[bleak wind]

All the way committed

He's been sweeping his yard for 20 minutes at this point

Dedication right there

[willow elm]

Im thinking of getting ride of these water falls, what should i replace them with?

[sacred siren]

I think they look nice but maybe you could place statues and capricorn ornaments

[willow elm]

@sacred siren I dont have many star fragments but ill see what i can do ^~^

[sacred siren]

👍

[high inlet]

Sorry for bad quality but I tried my hand at "pixel art" on my map.
Should I remove the upper left heart? It's barely recognizable.
Also, should I remove the path or frame the entire square? I was inspired by the gameboy screen and it has a grey border, but the color is not quite right...

[naive leaf]

I like it!

How does it look on the miniature?

[hardy rune]

punchys yard

[naive leaf]

No, I think it;s cute this way

[high inlet]

Thank you!

With the path around it or without?

[wide ridge]

I think it’d be cool with the path all the way around

[naive leaf]

Have you already tries using path as the highlight color in the hearts?

[real vessel]

God I hate when they do this.

[high inlet]

@naive leaf I have not tried that. Tbh I kinda wanted to keep the completely green colorscheme like it was on the OG gameboy

[naive leaf]

Ah yeah, then I think the path all around would illustrate the 'screen' idea more

[high inlet]

Although don't get me wrong, it is a good idea

Will do the path around it, thanks guys

[bleak wind]

I made a little art area on the beach. Pretty happy with it 😊

[uneven obsidian]

Ankha’s house. Probably went overboard with the spoiling.

[woven drift]

as u should for a queen 👑 @uneven obsidian it looks so good 🥺

[swift palm]

anyone else feel like resetting cause of the rocks they got 😂

[wise wadi]

Omg yes

[swift palm]

like I've seen other peoples northern rocks and they look awesome , mine are basic

[wise wadi]

My rocks along the water dont have room for furniture

[swift palm]

do you have pic of them

[wise wadi]

1 sec

Its deceiving. U can only put down 1 2x3 item and thats it. Im in the process of moving around stuff so no judging lol. I've decided to block them except for a path I can run behind

I only got like 2 good rocks that r flat

[swift palm]

I have 1 large rock like the right and small like the top left as well

[wise wadi]

They all look big but they have a weird rock on top of all that blocks furniture placement. Oh well I've abandoned them

[uneven obsidian]

Update: Gave her a king tut mask and a golden fish

[bleak wind]

I think I just got lucky with three large rocks on my island 😅

[willow elm]

New area for turnips! Hows it look? 👀

[sacred siren]

good

[woven drift]

What are some good furniture items to decorate small bits of your island with?

[spiral dove]

thats a bit vague. what do you want to make?

think of areas in terms of purpose. "This is a beach lounge" or "this is where villagers look for bugs" then go from there

[woven drift]

does anyone have any layout ideas for my island?

[strange star]

the pond on the left already looks like a heart, you could make a cute garden area around it in the future maybe.

[woven drift]

i want to place my shops, i’m not quite sure where to put them though

[strange star]

hmm, i'm not the best at planning but i would put the shop across the river on the left, you don't have to do what i say though, its up to you

[tired river]

If anyone doesn’t want to put more fencing but Issabelle says you have to just put it behind cliffs lmao. I’m doing that rn

[strange star]

good idea, haven't thought of that

[neon glen]

yooo we have the same exact layout

[tender frigate]

if it were me, id put my shops on my beaches/somewhere out of the way to avoid spending more money moving them when terraforming :)

[waxen halo]

I completely forgot you can put things on the beach now,, that'll help SO MUCH when terraforming

[woven drift]

ooh that’s so cool! twinsies

[bleak wind]

You could place them near Resident Services maybe, or on either side of the airport, or across the river near the pier, or on the beach, or up on the cliffs...really, just place them wherever you want

[blazing peak]

Moin

[oblique mulch]

Does anyone have any tips for a circular neighbourhood? Saw something similar on someone’s island and loved it. Wanna plan it out before moving anyone so tips would be appreciated!

[upbeat crag]

I made a building 👀

[worldly gale]

My new zone 🥰⛩

[hoary harbor]

Anyone have some island layout ideas? I have no idea what to do with the villagers houses

[idle shadow]

@worldly gale ik getting all those pagodas was expensive 😂 but that looks absolutely stunning!:)

[versed wadi]

@hoary harbor

[worldly gale]

@idle shadow 550 nmts for 10 pagodas xD

I'm litteraly poor now btw @idle shadow xD

[idle shadow]

@worldly gale haha felt after I buy seasonal diys or gulliver items

[tawdry frigate]

Anyone has ideas for an airport entrance thats really close to resident services?

[idle shadow]

how many tiles ?

[worldly gale]

@tawdry frigate my resident services is just behind

[versed wadi]

@tawdry frigate mine is 11 squares away

[tawdry frigate]

My space is waaay smaller.

[tawdry frigate]

Mine too 10/11 not sure... this is beautiful!

[worldly gale]

Ohh i see... Mb try to find it on pinterest ? idk :/ sorry can't helping @tawdry frigate ❤️ good luck

[tawdry frigate]

No worries!❤️ thanks anyways! Ur entrance is gorgeous

[strange star]

cool!

[spiral dove]

I think mine's 8 away?

[woven drift]

Any Japanese island ideas? I have a general layout but don’t now how to get the right feel.

[silk bloom]

does anyone have some basic island layouts for houses, and shops?

[tawdry frigate]

So nice! 🤩 everyone’s so creative❤️❤️

[woven drift]

i would love to see some also!

so cute

[sacred siren]

mine's pretty close

[burnt osprey]

@silk bloom these are my nooks and ables, I like having them close

[woven drift]

may as well ask again
does anyone know of any good British in the 1900s island ideas

[burnt osprey]

@silk bloom also this is the layout for my houses, it really depends on your theme a lot of people like spreading the houses apart

[spiral dove]

I spread my island out

didn't terraform too much at all. just kind of shaved off some corners.

[silk bloom]

thanks to everyone! I really suck with trying to lay out the island

[burnt osprey]

It’s really hard at first! Just take your time, look at inspo (Pinterest really helps) and remember u can always change it if u don’t like it, I just start with one area and then slowly move forward to the next area in front

[spiral dove]

I'm working on some design articles taht have to do with ACNH design specifically. I'll make sure to write about layout

[tender frigate]

what kind of bridge should I put here? im thinking iron since I’m going for an industrial vibe but let me know what you guys think!!

[spiral dove]

blue imperial bridge!

wait yeah its iron.

[woven drift]

Hi I don’t know if this is the right place but if anyone needs help with an island layout I would be happy to give a hand:)

[smoky vine]

Can I get some opinions/thoughts about this fishing/living area? I was thinking of tearing it all down to move nooks and ables there, right in front of residential services, but now I'm thinking of setting that up towards the left of the path leading to rs, or leaving the stores where they are. Anyways, I'm just not sure how I can redo this, I was thinking of even destroying it and moving it but the area is pretty set up. https://twitter.com/rainyprincee/status/1330978082019188737?s=19

Sorry, I don't know how to post the video by itself, I think it's too big 😅

[woven drift]

I like it but you could make it a tad smaller and then add nooks and able

[smoky vine]

Yeah, I can definitely make that little island smaller, let me try some stuff

[woven drift]

You could also make nooks and ables in the lake then f the island was smaller

[smoky vine]

@toxic oar ohhhhh I love that, I really like how theres layers of things. The TRex on the next cliff is a nice touch, visuals line up nicely

[shut depot]

Little froggy lake

[woven drift]

the phroggy sit

[shut depot]

Yeah

[tropic harness]

Oh my gosh that froggy lake thing is so cute

My island is normal it doesn’t have any theme yet

[shut depot]

Aww ty

[tropic harness]

it’s literally the cutest thing ever

I’m making half my island a dirt path and the other half a brick path

[analog nova]

does this look like enough space for rocks to spawn? (holes currently in place of rocks)

[tropic harness]

Yeah I think so

[analog nova]

sick. if i cover the area with flowers (excluding the spaces where the rocks will go) then can the rocks still spawn where they're supposed to? since flowers only block the space they go in i think

idk if that made any sense

[tropic harness]

This is a small decoration thing or whatever you’d call it

[dusty charm]

can someone help me with ideas for the villager houses i hate how mine is rn and i’m kinda going for a pink theme btw

[glad pilot]

After 2 days, my map design is complete and ready to be created in game c: I cannot wait for the final product this has taken so much work, thought and trying to imagine how I would create it 😩

[woven drift]

Hey, probably a dumb question, but I'm asking because I need more than the max 8 bridges... Is there any way to get water to flow under land, or if you have terrain, can there not be water?

[wise wadi]

U can only create "fake bridges" as an alternative

Thats my fave part of the island. U can make it as short or long as u like too

[woven drift]

I read about fake bridges... but the issue is keeping my large river connected while being able to build land over it

but that is cool what you got there

[wise wadi]

Theres sadly no way to do that. But u can have water connect on either side and it'll still be a river

[woven drift]

I thought that may be the case... Thanks anyway

[wise wadi]

Np! Good luck

[woven drift]

thx

[worldly gale]

I prefer without snow ❄️🥰

[woven drift]

So many ideas no room to do it omg like how do y’all fit everything

Build up Julian his own unicorn land✨ consisting out of his castle and a candy garden. On a little area to sit I am working rn 🌸

[severe wedge]

Omg that’s beautiful 🤩 😍

[gentle flower]

How’s my entrance? What’s it missing?

[potent schooner]

Flores

But it’s awesome

Like amazing

[gentle flower]

Since my color theme is white and blue, I’m going to stick with the blue hyacinth lamps and due a variety of white flowers! Thank you sm!

[woven drift]

You can also make hopping blocks which are always fun!

[woven drift]

Cute!

[past thunder]

My little privat garden area

Thanks thinking about changing the cow pillows to the same ones the zen pillows are but I love cow print tho

[woven drift]

Yeah that would keep it a consistent theme

[warm rover]

Hello

It's someone in gear has bambu

[woven drift]

I would look in trading for that

[warm rover]

I need it

Do you have some

They say they don't have bambu

[past thunder]

[sly minnow]

Can anyone give me guidance with how to landscape an island? It's never clicked with me and I'm going mental trying to make something between my airport and RS

[upper fern]

current island entrance 😎😎

[sly minnow]

does this stuff come naturally to you

it just overwhelms me entirely

[tender frigate]

that looks good! if your going for a more natural look I’d suggest maybe making those lining parts less straight, is that makes sense? like add more curves

edit: also if you want convenience break the row closest to the rocks so you can travel between your beaches easily

[eager cypress]

omg, that's really pretty! i love the winter theme on it

[sly minnow]

I also feel troubled with my RS being so close

[upper fern]

if it helps you can go on pinterest and look at inspo ! you can take little details and put them in your entrance 😎

[sly minnow]

there must be some sort of philosophy to this though lol

it's too complex for me

[upper fern]

since your rs is kinda diagonal to ur airport maybe use “the path” to lead up to it and fill the area with trees/ flowers and items ! :^^D

[sly minnow]

alright thank you

[eager cypress]

that's amazing

the small details make it so pretty

[junior cipher]

symmetry is good depending on what you're making

It’d be cool if I was as good at ACNh like everyone else

I really wanna make a standard town but how I feel about others islands make me say no!

[sacred siren]

^ i didn't follow anything

everyone has like the same residential area

do something different, it's good in some way

you can always go back and change things too

[junior cipher]

I just wanna use a dirt path

Not “The Path”

[sacred siren]

ah that one

Well I'd make the cliffs first

and water features before the cliffs

unless the cliffs have waterfalls and you're gonna make ponds

[sly minnow]

uhuhuhu

[sacred siren]

anyways dont do the paths first, make the land

[junior cipher]

Never in 100 years could I make something like that on my map

Just on the map. Not even including furniture

[sacred siren]

well it only looks that pretty since the paths aren't shown

im sure it's a custom design path mess

not in that way

[idle shadow]

@topaz flint ur map is amazing!

[turbid mortar]

Murphy being a lil green qt

[sacred siren]

as in paths are everywhere

not messy but in large quantity

there are paths, the map just doesn't show em

[junior cipher]

I’m thinking of connecting some waterfalls together to make a pond

[sacred siren]

then do that

nice

i dont have a picture of my dig site

[raw steppe]

when your penguin finally has a proper yard

[sacred siren]

i made it second level so I could make a giant pit

[raw steppe]

and no time traveling - it was a gift

[quick gorge]

not entirely sure if I already posted this, but here's a holiday plaza

[sacred siren]

nice

[turbid mortar]

Is there a sleigh in the update?

[sacred siren]

yes

[turbid mortar]

I just couldn’t remember off the top of my head lol.

[sacred siren]

the tents have so much potential

nice lanterns

[turbid mortar]

Yessss I’m so excited to make a cute campsite with the tents!

[worldly gale]

@rain glen love this place !

[junior cipher]

I made my happy little pond

[sacred siren]

cool

[junior cipher]

It’s not perfect, but that’s because it’s still being worked on!

[sacred siren]

you should smooth it a bit, add flowers and maybe some piece of furniture at the top

like a bench

hey, I couldn't wait one second to make a small camp thing

eh

are they really?

i doubt the people without hacks are being banned

though it is nintendo

[junior cipher]

Hacked my switch before before bans were a thing

[sacred siren]

i know with pokemon having hacked pokemon is 100% safe

yeah i do

[junior cipher]

I regret it now that bans are here

[eager cypress]

Please refrain from talking about the banned items, as they aren't allowed on the server!

[tender frigate]

wait is a kids tent a hacked item? i keep seeing them in pictures and I just assumed you could buy them from nooks as a seasonal thing

[sacred siren]

^

[tender frigate]

ohhh ok, thanks for telling me!! <3

[prime harbor]

guys wth do you call this part of the island ... looking for ideas but can figure out what to call it in my research

[sacred siren]

you could put a lighthouse there, you could make a cliff, you could make a viewing area, an incline for diving...

[prime harbor]

omg how cute !

[sly minnow]

what do you call that sticky outy bit of land

ah, thank you

[junior cipher]

Ah yes... I can see my@river

I’ve got an idea!

[sly minnow]

i tried to make an extra layer on the peninsula but didnt get anything practical to work

[desert coral]

Whoah! Are those lanterns new?

[woven drift]

Pm with dodo code someone pls

[desert coral]

Does anybod know where those lanterns are from? I need them

[rain glen]

Its a custom design for a table lamp haha

[woven drift]

There bamboo lanterns

I think

[desert coral]

Oh wow, I think I can see it now. That reeeally fooled me.

Amazing

[desert coral]

Do you have a code for that pattern?

[woven drift]

Anyone have pumpkins on there island if so what is your dodo code

Cute I like your ship idea

[junior cipher]

Even though it’s so simple, I really like it but yet I can’t make anything like it

[woven drift]

@wary ice i have some pumpkins

That’s how I feel about my campsite in my town

[rain glen]

Nope I forgot

[desert coral]

Dang. But thanks for the replies!

[junior cipher]

@topaz flint any ideas for what log furniture!

[turbid mortar]

That path is so pretty

[woven drift]

Thank you I got it off of Pinterest I’m not a good designer

[desert coral]

Cute camp site design! Also a great way to use the beach!

I swear, I need your dc xD

You island seems so well designed xD

[desert coral]

A shame D:

Then keep on posting some pics I'd say ^^

[turbid mortar]

[desert coral]

I'm finally starting to have some ideas for my beach

Then I might need to visit you someday

Oh, gladly!

[woven drift]

I made this today

[worldly gale]

Coffee ?

[turbid mortar]

@worldly gale I love the white items w so much green 😍💚

[worldly gale]

@turbid mortar tysm 😍

[turbid mortar]

I can’t wait for snow, my island does not vibe w fall >.<

[worldly gale]

Soon! @turbid mortar

[turbid mortar]

Ahh I know. The buildings and fencing are so precious covering in snow

[worldly gale]

I’m agree with u!

Flowers and butterfly 🌺 🦋🥰

U have so much patience @topaz flint !

But it makes the difference 🥰

Sorry for my english i trying to do my best ^^’

This candle is so gorgeous btw @topaz flint

[turbid mortar]

Me too! But I don’t like the fall colors lol

[turbid mortar]

That’s so pretty, I love all the flowers sm💖🥺

Me forcing Halloween& fall to be pink 😤

[worldly gale]

Love taking pictures so much 😍

[deft creek]

does anyone have a european/french city ideas? specifically one with a long straight river in the middle like an aqueduct or venice

[lethal thorn]

Any ideas what I could do with my villager area? I was stupid and decided to make the paths super thick and I think it looks kinda ugly.

[deft creek]

maybe put some seats & tables in front of the fences

[lethal thorn]

@deft creek All of them or just some?

[deft creek]

whatever feels right, just experiment with different seats, furniture, and plants to see what u like

[lethal thorn]

Ok thanks 🙂

[woven drift]

How could I improve Hopkin’s little farm area?

Signs

Hmm... I do have room for some custom designs

I use designs off of Pinterest

That way I can always go back to them

Like when I run out of space

I still have room since I’m not using my custom path that i have

You can screenshot the design

[sudden mango]

took some pictures today ~

[marsh haven]

Maybe a small pond with the ducks?

[amber juniper]

Yall have quite a few little blank spaces around my area. Any ideas???

[woven drift]

Theres a small pond just to the right out if view

[potent schooner]

Judy sus

She vented

[sudden mango]

Lol

[silent totem]

Thoughts about my entrance to my nooks/ ables on the very left?

[covert summit]

@silent totem it’s adorable 🥰

[silent totem]

Thank you so much

[inland nacelle]

Beautiful! Also, what’s the name of that round table carrying the Floating Biotope Planter?

[knotty lantern]

@deft creek I do. DM if you’d like to visit I specifically have two straight rivers European inspired

[woven drift]

Thats a new item from the turkey day event

[potent schooner]

Do y’all know where I can talk to one of the creators of animal crossing?

[mental rain]

My first island is fairycore for the theme.. which i love.. what is another colorful one besides fairy? I've tried kidcore and hate it lmao

[potent schooner]

Yeah but when I ask there nobody answers

Ok

[woven drift]

I’m just gonna sit here in my seagrass

[potent schooner]

Lol

[ivory ermine]

Some progress moving stuff/terraforming but it'll be like 10+ more days probably until I'm finished

[coarse kraken]

Thoughts on my cafe?

[copper crown]

cool

[ivory ermine]

It is very cute & I'm glad your villagers seem to be using it

[woven drift]

I like it but feel it could use walls

[copper crown]

a waterfall pond thing i made

[woven drift]

Add some ducks and flowers

[coarse kraken]

What should I do with this open space?

[woven drift]

Rock garden

[ivory ermine]

Why is "add ducks" probably one of the best suggestions for decorating? Duck is just cute

[woven drift]

Ducks add a bit of life to the island

[copper crown]

idk how to get ducks lol

[woven drift]

Its a diy

[ivory ermine]

Duck villagers are also a decorating bonus

[copper crown]

probably not one i have yet lol

also i have no duck villagers

wait actually i do have the diy

[woven drift]

I can make you as many as you need, if you let me come to your island

[ivory ermine]

Yay! The customization options are good for the ducks

[copper crown]

also a central area in front of resident services

[knotty lantern]

Examples of my WIP euro inspired island rivers @deft creek

[wraith pike]

my graveyard

[copper crown]

very spooky

[ivory ermine]

Looks fancy & open. I think you nailed the look of the rivers

[knotty lantern]

Thank you! Still working out details

[candid breach]

lil fall area 🍂🍄🍁
