[jovial jackal]

i’m trying to breed blue roses right now haha

[crystal nimbus]

good luck on that 🙂

[dim dune]

Oh man, I wish you luck my friend, it’s quite the... experience

[woven drift]

huuuuuge wip but uhh.. my shopping district:D

[sharp lantern]

Guys please remember that this channel's purpose is to share island layouts and comment on them so please take any other conversation to the social channels instead, thanks!

[barren thistle]

That’s so cute omg

[crystal nimbus]

gosh my island is FULL of flowers cause they spead more than freakin weeds

[hearty schooner]

The blend between trees and flowers is important to really capture that natural look

[woven drift]

vdjdvdjsvd

sameeeee i have a ton of them on my beach, millions just randomly spread everywhere lol

that looks so good aaaaaaa

nevuhhhhh

[crystal nimbus]

yea they look quite cool and stuff but its space i wanna use for some other decorations 😄 difficult decisions

[woven drift]

[woeful tulip]

I forgot how I did on the right side for the water fall...

Looking for a island with ''jungle'' themed, only looking for Photo's.

[woven drift]

@elder mesa this was my previous island

[woven drift]

Hey I’m redoing my island, I want to do like a cute neighborhood island does anyone has inspiration? Also I dont know how to do my rivers :/

Is there way to reset island without losing stuff?

Hi, I have a problem with a place on my island and I'm a little fed up

I made an ice rink with only 1 path because I have no more place, and I put fences around etc, but it doesn't look natural at all. It makes a city style and that's not what I want to do

Anyone have any idea to make this place look more natural ? Otherwise I'm going to despair

[bitter inlet]

@woven drift i don't think it looks city style, i would just make it more of one big rectangle like most ice rinks, and add more plants and such outside the hedges

you could add a stall somewhere for buying ice skates

[ionic iron]

hey looking for someone to help me with the layout of my rivers and making it look nice! willing to pay

[woven drift]

The problem is the outline, I tried others fences but it was not nice @bitter inlet

[burnt fjord]

Should I keep the panels?

[hot plover]

@woven drift I seen this somewhere on YouTube and I can’t remember who done it but I think the idea is to not use fences for the whole outline, for example use trees bushes benches etc to create a less defined and more natural outline if that makes sense

[torn geode]

Trying to make a mini fruit orchard in the red area - how should I arrage my trees?
The brown spots are places where I've already planted trees

[fierce snow]

Orchard

[wintry flax]

I recommend planting one kind of fruit tree in a specific place, if your island is cottage core I recommend you to not use neat and organized squares because it doesn’t match the island aesthetic

[dim sky]

i dont know how to organize my trees

[barren mesa]

does any one have picture are there spa area. I am trying to gather some ideas

[woven drift]

Thank u the picture gives ideas for the trees, I will try tomorrow :') I tried other things I didn't like, I hesitated to remove everything

[wintry junco]

Trying to create a rock garden but no rocks are spawning :(

Is this enough space for each rock or does it require more space

[odd hedge]

I think thats enough space

[smoky igloo]

@wintry junco Part of the problem is the cliffs in front of the rocks, it blocks off the spaces behind them!

[wintry flax]

I recently finished my rock garden and it cost half of my sanity

[wintry junco]

There is one tile of space between the cliff and the rock

I'll try removing it though and seeing if it helps

[wintry flax]

You have to put the mannequins everywhere

[wintry junco]

my island is completely covered in either mannequins or items and they aren't spawning anywhere else on the island

[wintry flax]

Some rocks spawned at places I didn’t think it’ll spawn in and I got so mad

Try removing the cliffs surrounding the rock garden

[dim dune]

^^^

[wintry junco]

yay it worked thank you!

[hot plover]

Glad I could help! Good luck (:

[dim dune]

Okay so update on Diana’s house, thoughts? I dunno, seems somewhat off for some reason

[final terrace]

Looking for someone to help me redesign my island/map, will pay generously!

[bleak wind]

Just mapped out a huge rock garden, because why not 😂

[woven drift]

maybe you could add some mini trees along the pathway? or plant more flowers/shrubs there ^~^

Thoughts? (My pic)

[woven drift]

looks very pretty ^~^ i like what you did with the hedges around the fountain

[near comet]

does anyone wanna visit my island?

[woven drift]

@woven drift thank u sm!! ^^

[fierce snow]

I like the Capricorn ornament. It’s not overused as a center piece

[fierce snow]

#690093605821480980

[woven drift]

@fierce snow i know! at first i chose to put a statue but the capricorn ormanent fitted better. thank u! 😊

[quasi grove]

I see people talking about rock gardens. Does that mean the rocks you hit with a shovel are able to respawn if you destroy them on your island?

[fierce snow]

Yes

[bleak wind]

A lot of people either put custom designs everwhere or use the mannequin method to force the rocks to spawn in specific areas. For every rock you destroy, a new one will replace it the next day 😄

[wispy jay]

@woven drift That looks amazing!!

[woven drift]

@wispy jay Thank u so much!! means a lot ^^

[wispy jay]

@woven drift Np! ^^

[prisma folio]

looking for some friends!

would love to visit islands

[crimson turtle]

Hello! Me too

I've been playing for a long time now, but i wanted to share proyects and things with other ppl

so here i AM 😄

[prisma folio]

I cant randomly go to islands so i gotta look for dodo codes i think?

[woven drift]

Me too!!

[shadow surge]

before I carve the whole river out, does this outline look nice and natural enough? (don't worry about the L-shaped patch it cuts through, that's just where I've been making my snowmen)

[fierce snow]

damn that looks good!!

[shadow surge]

thank you! Natural shapes are super tough!!

[dim dune]

Imo generally the map view doesn’t say much about how it actually looks, but judging from the map view I’d say it looks good, possibly more curves on the left?

[fierce snow]

ya deff not something i can pull off so kudos!

[shadow surge]

well, there's always a place for more urban islands! The variety of how people make their dream-worlds is so fun :D

[plucky inlet]

New Layout for my entrance! AGAIN lol

[narrow lodge]

My layout so far

[elder ice]

my island is pretty ghetto

[dawn tangle]

Yay clay just moved into my island as the 3rd villager
Next is gonna be apple or deena

[robust crypt]

not my island looking more bland than unseasoned chicken

[wispy jay]

My island is multiple themes all mixed in one😅

[analog nova]

anyone got any ideas for sprucing this area up? it looks super ugly to me but i don't know how to fix it

my main issues are the tiny river thing to the right (i only did that because there was empty space and i didn't know what else to put), the huge empty area in front of the houses, and how unnatural the river looks

[elfin knoll]

My island is new and I’m in Desperate need of help figuring out what to do with my island

[bronze ingot]

So I got this little plaza area infront of my ables and I need some ideas of what to put on the fireplace and just in surrounding areas. Let me know if you have any

[terse yoke]

i need animal crossing friends 😦

[dim dune]

You can always make the yards bigger and then just put tiny decorations outside to get rid of the empty space, otherwise maybe some sort of path to the houses? The tiny river thing looks very unnatural to me since it’s on a cliff even the same formation as it, and it’s very close to the edge without making a waterfall. I would personally get rid of the entire cliff and just put trees or something there, otherwise just remove the river. The reason why I think the rivers are unnatural is because you’ve used a lot of straight lines, if that makes sense? It makes the rivers a lot more blocky which isn’t what you should be aiming for. It should curve a lot more, and not just a long line with cutting edges, I’m not good at explaining aaa

[analog nova]

OHHH inever thought of using trees instead!! i'm not sure how to make the river more curvy though, probably just gonna have to google some river inspo (+_+) thank you so much!! i'm gonna keep the yards the same since all my villagers have the same size BUT i could try to put a little cafe type thing out front maybe... hmmmm..

thank you so much !!!! @dim dune

[river sky]

Give me feed back on what I should do please

[brittle vine]

@river sky what's your style?

[river sky]

Fairy and pond type kind of

[brittle vine]

i would out mushroom stuff there and some fairy core stuff

[dim dune]

Np! What I personally like to do with rivers is not “try” too hard, if that makes sense? You just kind of do the shape without trying to think too hard about it or you’ll get hung up too much on the shape

[analog nova]

that's super cute! definitely throw some mush items out n maybe a decoy duck or two

[analog nova]

that makes sense!! I'll do my best

[river sky]

I’m adding mum cushions to the little ponds also I’ll send a picture

[bronze ingot]

Adding a tree or a tree stump in the middle of your path way or right next to it would look good

[modest oak]

sunsets in soulstice

[eager burrow]

new area i made, i have too many sitting areas but this one is a bit nicer than some others i have

[fierce snow]

My island has come a long way

[dim dune]

Meanwhile you have people like me who just tore everything down so I can’t look back on places-

[eager burrow]

the snow really helps bring out the red

[odd skiff]

welcome to my campsite

[fierce snow]

Welcome to my campsite

[bleak wind]

Your islands are just too good, @fierce snow 😭

[sonic raptor]

I love it

[river sky]

Update😋

[odd skiff]

is that a wide angle shot too?

lookin like it!!

[fierce snow]

Yes by animo crossing

[fierce snow]

You are too sweet 😊😊😊😊

[woven drift]

making like a mini village, all my houses are gonna be here(the brown marks are where the houses will be that are currently on the beach) but i have a big section in the middle to fill, im thinking of using mushroom stuff but im not sure how to make it look good! my theme is cottagecore :)

[winter kernel]

Been working on tucking my campsite into my fairy forest : what do you guys think

[proud grail]

so cute 😮

[idle compass]

Can I come to someone's island? I just wanna check it out

[cyan peak]

guys, does anyone have a layout for a good garden for flower breeding?

[woven drift]

Hi, anyone have an idea to create a little coffee/hot chocolate shop beside the ice rink ? :) Just a small stand

[fierce snow]

#690093605821480980 but u can dream mine

[wary crown]

I have all 67 umbrellas and want to set out for display but i dont know where! any ideas??

[proper quarry]

Hey! Does anyone want to show off parts of their island? I need some inspiration 🙂

[analog nova]

@proper quarry mine isn't completely finished but i have several areas you could look at! it's sort of a modern pastel cottagecore thing, pink and white n lots of flowers

[fierce snow]

Like this?

[robust crypt]

stoppp yall islands r too cool for school

[random wigeon]

decided im first gonna work on my secret path / observation area for celeste

might move the museum to the area as well?????? but wanted to focus on an orchard around it

[hard musk]

Tsukishima island, haikyuu fan?

[random wigeon]

Precisely .. havent watched in so long dhsnbsnss i promised myself once i completed my iskand id do a rewatch

[analog nova]

throwing these down for you

[wispy jay]

@analog nova Your island looks amazing!!

[fierce snow]

Thank u 😊😊😊

[cloud fjord]

can someone help me get better at terraforming. I want to make my island forestcore but I dont know how to connect all the areas or make them beautiful like everyone else does

[split bronze]

Is this where I can post my island options and ask for advice on which to choose? :<

[smoky igloo]

You can, sure!

[split bronze]

These are my options. Just wanted to ask which one you guys would go for? I’d also like a plaza centered with the airport but I can’t tell which is. Any help would be appreciated : )

[jade palm]

i think the top left and bottom right are pretty well centred with the airport/resident services and there’s lots of space for a nice entrance!

[acoustic abyss]

personally out of the 4 i would do the bottom left but it depends what you want bc different preferences

[smoky igloo]

The best thing to keep in mind I think is that everything but the beaches, river mouths, airport, and resident services can be potentially changed if you so choose

[native current]

I like the top right but make it your choice, it is your island!

[wild portal]

But not resident service

[smoky igloo]

Yes I said everything but those things haha

[wild portal]

And that’s the problem with the game that a lot of ppl have

[split bronze]

you guys are all split 😭 haha i would love to do a nice entrance but i dont want it to be too far from the airport

[jade palm]

the top right is decently spaced and still kiiiinda centred

[acoustic abyss]

if you can’t choose you can also restart the game to get new maps if you want but again it’s your preference bc everyone has their own for what they’re going for if that makes sense

or you can also pick one n see how far away the entrance is n if you don’t like it then reset since you’re still right in the beginning

[split bronze]

that's what ive been doing haha, i just mostly wanted a fully centered RS since my other one was off by a little bit and it bothered me

[acoustic abyss]

fully centered in the map or centered between the entrance to rs ?

[wintry junco]

I actually have a RS that's really off centre and away from the airport but I like it because it allowed me a ton of space for the entrance.. pros and cons to each

[split bronze]

between the entrance to the RS!

like i wanna walk straight from the airport to the doors of the plaza/RS lol

[acoustic abyss]

i think top right looks the most centered and the others are off by a few spaces

[neon glen]

i think top right is most centered, but i have a feeling it'll be 1 tile off centered, since i think i tried that map before for a centered rs

[split bronze]

yeah top right looked most centered for me as well... im gonna try that one hopefully it's good 😭

ty you all for the help~

[arctic spade]

which island should i choose?

[acoustic abyss]

depends what kinda of island you want to go for (resident services, airport, dock, secret beach, river mouths, rocks, and peninsula can’t be moved so keep that in mind)

[arctic spade]

well i don’t have a certain island in mind

is there any of the 4 you would recommend?

[outer lichen]

I chose the bottom right one because I like the centered resident services

[acoustic abyss]

personally i like the bottom right but some people find the two south mouths hard to use so either bottom right or top left bc it has a good peninsula/ semi central rs

[arctic spade]

so shall i go with top left?

i’m very new and have really no clue i just don’t want to feel like i have to restart later on

[outer lichen]

Any idea on what could go in this plot of land in front of my resident services?

Yeah I get that. It really boils down to preference and what you feel like you can make work

[neon glen]

@arctic spade u could try look at these, these r all the possible map layouts https://www.reddit.com/r/AnimalCrossing/comments/g7mc0c/all_possible_default_map_layouts/ if theres one u like u can always close out the game and try again and the game will give u another 4 random map layouts in the beginning

[arctic spade]

ok great thanks a lot 👍

[desert stag]

ooo you should put a fountain with a bunch of flowers around it and then put a nice design around it

[outer lichen]

That's a good idea @desert stag I also have some statues I could throw into the mix and see how that turns out

[woven fox]

Hiya! Wondering how people have placed their pagoda/s so they don't look off centre?

[eager sluice]

is there any for cottagecore?

[cloud fjord]

whats the island contest-

when does it start.. I have so many questions

[eager sluice]

oh okay

these look so hard

[proven sky]

Maybe like a plaza with seating and fountains and some trees

[outer lichen]

For trees would you recommend pine trees or regular trees?

[eager sluice]

what would you recommend for a big space infront of a house.

[outer lichen]

I guess that depends on your theme or whatever you're trying to go for

[eager sluice]

cottagecore.

but its snowing, and it ruins everything. :’(

[outer lichen]

oof, cottagecore is tough since I don't know much about it. Sorry

[eager sluice]

its okay!!

[outer lichen]

I'm still struggling with a theme I like. Maybe something like a modern japan town or regular town. Idk though, I just like those vibes I guess

[eager sluice]

also I just started playing animal crossing so-

[outer lichen]

Yeah that's true. Good advice

[eager sluice]

i do that all the time with my island with other people, and im jealous how people get their islands to look like that.

my islands plain cuz theres nothing on it

i got nooks cranny i just need to build my first bridge

yeah probably so

yeah they potbelly played it longer then me :/

can i dm u ??

[outer lichen]

I also had a bad habit of comparing my island to others as well. Sometimes you don't need a theme I guess lol

It makes the game more enjoyable if you do what you like

At least that's how i feel

[eager sluice]

can i use diys and nook shop items together?

okay

[outer lichen]

cottagecore islands can look really good so hopefully it goes well for you!

[eager sluice]

yes

this is what i personally like

[proven sky]

I mean if you need more bridges then I’d say yes

[outer lichen]

That looks really good @eager sluice I like that style too

I wish I could do something like that lol

[eager sluice]

tours or builds?

[woeful tulip]

Is cliff too close to the plaza thk

[wanton loom]

Do you have a dream code or is it not finished yet

[outer lichen]

I think visiting a dream address could also give you a better idea too @eager sluice

oh that's true. my bad

As far as fountains go, should I decorate with pine trees or regular trees?

[analog nova]

i'm pretty sure you only need a bed to visit other people's DAs but i could be wrong

[zenith dust]

Anyone have a cute white post office

[inland kraken]

Hi I’m looking for anyone who is good at island mail design and would like to help me! It’s something I’ve really been struggling with so if anyone could make a map for me I would love that ( Happy Island Designer is okay to use) I can pay in bells/NMT/ items

[strong sable]

Hey does anyone have any island maps with lots of hills

[young lake]

mine and hubby's farm.
no idea what items to add to it, it just looks barren 😅

[zealous bloom]

Requesting playground& library theme pics.
Help me helme!

[mint sigil]

everyone's island is better than mine 😔

[tough sundial]

that’s alot of money wasted

[random patrol]

Im bored can I visit someones island?

[quaint pebble]

@topaz flint you're giving really good advice the ways you're explaining are the best ways to get bells

I have over 1000 hours as well! So much gameplay haha

[tough sundial]

just do it man DO IT

[quaint pebble]

When I first started I did nothing but make bells for the first two weeks by fishing and catching bugs you just have to commit to making the money

The point of the game is to last a long time and not rush everything to perfection

I'll grab some updates ones! I recently flattened and changed my goals so its mostly empty now

@woven drift if you don't like it don't play, ya know? Also, you need to move this to #acnh-chat⛱️

It looks amazing how it is!!

The waterfall lined up behind it gives it the right effects!

[neon glen]

another wide angle shot by @acnh.drumatic on ig

[quaint pebble]

Renovated ramen bar with the original upstairs appartment!

My Ables! The sidewalk on the right is still a work im progress--

My entrance! A visitors center with a little drinks store next door

Ooooo that's a good idea!!

More modern apartment building I started yesterday

My onsen!!

Thank you!! They look so good as fencing!! I love my mini tree! This area is inspired a bit by spirited away so I hid a little spirit behind one! He's very shy

That's so cute!

The little crafted ones?

I have a few! I keep forgetting to get the out while I'm decorating

Same with my cherry blossom branches 😂

Same! I started making that apartment building then got side tracked and now I have half a school terraformed

Thank you! I think I'm going to take down all the fencing I have on the right, or at least some, and make my husband's house into and inn? Or maybe a sushi bar?

[strong sable]

Oof ima go crazy from all this teraforming Dx

Also thanks for the list amelia Amelia

[quaint pebble]

Ooohhh I should do a karaoke bar with an attatched restaurant with his living space upstairs

Yesss!!! Thank you for the ideas!

[strong sable]

Here's a tiny mail drop off area I made

Thanks 😊

I'm trying to redo my island with more of a mountainous look, its given me a whole new level of respect for islands with a lot of teraforming

[tough sundial]

The sounds when you terraform please my ears

[oblique oxide]

hELp, i would appreciate suggestions on how to make a residential area and a commercial area oTL

i wanted to make a tiered residential area on the purple part, commercial area in red and the museum on yellow, but i cant get the proportions right to make everything fit without taking too much space

[zenith dust]

LF inspo for a white post office

[neon glen]

@oblique oxide theres a few residential layouts in pins, here’s mine, even though it’s only 4 houses :> just waiting to get punchy to finish but i feel u can def make it more compact than mine

[zenith dust]

? I’m confused

[neon glen]

i think they're asking for white post office inspo pics, not furniture

[zenith dust]

I meant inspo for a white post office

I’ve seen people say “LF” so that’s why I said :p

It’s okay

[oblique oxide]

@neon glen thank you! sorry i always forget to check the pins first i'll check it out and try some stuff

[zenith dust]

Yeah I’ve only seen 1 white mail box design and it’s very formal, I’m trying to make a whiteish themed post office

[outer lichen]

I think I finally figured out a theme I want to try on my island

[zenith dust]

Oh congrats! What theme? I still don’t even have one myself but it’s like modern and whitish

[outer lichen]

I'm doing a tiered modern town vibe. Still working out the details a bit

Modern and whitish sounds interesting. Haven't seen anything like that

[faint snow]

Cherry’s yard! She loves comic books so i made her an area where she can read them:>

[limpid tree]

I got another island and I wanna do a half rural farm half fancy castle town theme. Does any one have any pics to give me inspiration please? I'm kinda having a tough time starting

[maiden fractal]

Delete+Repost because I caught the fountain of the hour💕 Super happy with finishing the text

[formal ingot]

Finally finished decorating the last parts of my island
Now I'm not ashamed to share my dream code anymore

[glossy silo]

Is there anybody who wants to fly to my island and give me some tips?

[sly cape]

so I tried this forced perspective thing (more dollhouses ordered lol). Don't mind the empty area where the character is on, I'm still fixing the rest of the island so that area (a pool area) comes last.

[pallid arrow]

I decorated around my house 🙂 it’s kinda a fairy/forest theme and I think I like it 😅

[glossy silo]

What do you think about my musem decoration?

From where @sly cape you have this nice small houses?

[sly cape]

it's a dollhouse, it's one of the toyday items

[glossy silo]

I didn't get it on toyday @sly cape

[sly cape]

you can time travel back and try to buy one from nooks or get lucky enough on those exchange gift with your villager thing, or buy from people on #furniture-trade or #cataloging

[pallid arrow]

@glossy silo I think I have one you can have. It’s purple and black

[oblique mulch]

I’ve just made this rock garden but wondering if it will work if I reduce the spaces between them to be one space instead of 2?

[pallid arrow]

I believe it should still work but not 100% sure

Just checked mine and yeah it will work just fine @oblique mulch

[oblique mulch]

Thank you!

[pallid arrow]

Np!

[sly cape]

yeah you should be fine

[eternal ore]

Hi, someone have his isle between April and October at night pls ?

[elder mesa]

Anyone got a jungle/tropical, entrance? LF photo’s , or film.

[woven drift]

Anyone knows how to fix this? I can’t make the corner

[edgy tapir]

@woven drift you need at least one cliff on the side to make another cliff on top (if that makes sense)

[woven drift]

I think I know what I mean but how do I make this beautiful ? I can’t put a cliff there :/

[dim dune]

Could anyone send some beach campsite inspo? I’m not entirely sure how to go about it

[frosty wren]

Does anyone know the item name of those white monoliths in the corners of this courtyard? Im trying to do something similar and I really like them

[upper swift]

I think they are white lockers facing backwards

[stiff thunder]

They are

[frosty wren]

Ohhh that makes sense why mysearches came up with nothing

Tysm!

[upper swift]

no prob 😄

[delicate jackal]

Can someone help me with my island pls

[upper swift]

what are you looking to do? any ideas of what you want your island to be or represent?

I can help, im working right now but Ill be free in 5-6 hours

[delicate jackal]

Thx

[fiery quail]

Where do you guys go to get your inspiration/references for island layouts? I just got rid of my cottagecore island and now am going for something a bit more urban (sidewalks and such) but I want it to feel authentic

[woven drift]

That's creative lol

[delicate jackal]

What's creative

[upper swift]

Pinterest mostly

[swift palm]

did urban for while but now going back to cottage core / foresty. Is there any tips particularly for foresty areas , for some reason I'm terrible with them..

[fiery quail]

to get a more "authentic" or random vibe for the forests, I honestly close my eyes and have my character run around the area i want the trees and randomly stop to dig the hole. Once I do this a few time I can look at it from that perspective and adjust

[low glade]

Does anyone have a “zen” themed island? I really need some inspiration

[fiery quail]

Not completely a zen themed island, it's more inspired by studio ghibili but this island's DA is DA 6758-9986-0062
It's not my island! This belongs to https://www.instagram.com/min.acnh/

[low glade]

@fiery quail thanks! Will check it out

[turbid mortar]

Instagram and YouTube

Honestly Instagram is a treasure trove. I’ve heard Pinterest is also good for irl inspo

[dawn tangle]

yay after time traveling clay apple and deena have arrived on my island

i picked the worst spaces for them to live which is why im desperate for resident services to upgrade

[white peak]

i initially mis-placed an islander's house, meaning i had to move it once to get a new house in its position, and then i had to move the house again so i could have a 2-row layout for the houses.
i have done nothing but relocate Twiggy for 3 days.

[dawn tangle]

i hate when that happens its a waste of bells to relocate them

[white peak]

mhm

[dawn tangle]

50 grand is way too much

[white peak]

granted, i would only have needed to relocate her once if i had forsight

but alas, t'is was not the case lol

[dawn tangle]

can someone help me with an urban island with kidcore themed stuff in it

[jovial jackal]

i’m planning out how i want my island to look, but i have no clue where to put my campsite. any suggestions?

[woven drift]

anyone got any inspo for a gothic island :))

[dim dune]

Well, what do you want to do for your campsite? It’ll help with how much space you need (another tip, always overestimate everything lmao)

[jovial jackal]

i want it to look kinda like this just in a diff spot haha

[dim dune]

Ah, well then it’d at least be pretty easy to know how big it needs to be, and the far left is eliminated. Otherwise it’s honestly up to you since I don’t actually know what the surroundings will be? But otherwise I’d probably say on the one under your house

[jovial jackal]

oki doki! thank you!

[dim dune]

Welp, I tried ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[upper swift]

love it!!!!

[bleak wind]

I made a mini campsite 😊

[open lintel]

what could i put on the left side to close off the space for this villager house?

[hushed cipher]

Campsite is moving tomorrow so I have some space to fill - what should I do? (to the left I have a mini golf course and on the right is a playground, then I have the beach right below it)

[spiral violet]

just finished my entrance for the millionth time. west isle

[keen jackal]

That would be a nice spot for a reading nook with a few chairs and a table with coffee, or a small flower garden

[obsidian falcon]

stuck in early december cause I don't like building with snow xD

[sharp hull]

I’ve posted this before but I changed some of it a bit

[edgy jacinth]

Hey guys

I am rich in bells and I have some space on my island

What should I do with that space

💩

[terse spire]

built a plant shop and cafe today !

[sacred crane]

I just started getting into path designs after completely redoing my island entrance and I don't know what I'm doing but I'm finally starting to like it (3 day time lapse)

[wild portal]

Beach café, not finished yet, that’s the best I’ve ever built. I seriously need some advice and tips

[fickle marlin]

Wait you can do stuff to your island?

I’m super new to animal crossing

I’m still trying to get my 5000 miles

[analog nova]

@wild portal try to make it look less symmetrical! also adding some cafe-related custom designs that also fit your island theme & color coordinating the area

[primal ginkgo]

@wild portal my advice is super simple! But try to keep the colors the same! Use the light rattan furniture instead of dark and white and make your booth a light brown or use a bamboo styled custom design

[wild portal]

I only have the brown rattan armchairs..

[fickle marlin]

Guys

[wild portal]

[analog nova]

that's okay, you can trade around to get new things!

[primal ginkgo]

Time to start trading ^^

[wild portal]

Idk how to trade stuff and what to trade

[primal ginkgo]

I have a beach cafe which id show you if I could :(

[wild portal]

[primal ginkgo]

I’m not home rn tho

You just trade for stuff you want with NMT

[wild portal]

aaaaaa

[primal ginkgo]

You can prob get the rattan stuff for 1-2 NMT

[woven drift]

who wants to hangout

[primal ginkgo]

[wild portal]

Damn that bright

[candid frigate]

[low glade]

How’s this look?

[dry marsh]

oo i love

[low glade]

@dry marsh thanks!

[torn geode]

This is my map so far - I recently added a campsite (to the west of the museum)
Does it look like it's out of place or is it good where it is? (planning for a mini rest area at the base of the river coming from the north)

[visual cloak]

Lols really good I think the compsite suit that spot

That’s mine I’m slowly changing most things

[torn geode]

Ooh nice! Loving the use of player tents

[brittle vine]

[rugged ridge]

I adore this idea!!

[zenith dust]

[analog nova]

try asking over in #690093605821480980 !!

[final terrace]

Thanks viixith!

[analog nova]

no problem!

[torn geode]

imo Whitney or Cole, depending on what kinda theme you wanna go for with a beachfront house

[analog nova]

hmmm i think i'll do cole for a more rural beach theme

[brittle vine]

@analog nova whitney!!

[oblique gulch]

Does anybody have like ideas for the entrance for my island?

[agile goblet]

what vibe are you going for?

Cottagecore? Modern? Jungle? City life? etc?

[green glade]

I am in need of help with my island... I got no idea how to do it lol
goin for a "kawaii" aesthetic haha

[wild portal]

Ik that feeling

[green glade]

[wild portal]

Well if you have any flowers

[green glade]

I got tons

[wild portal]

I suggest to put them on the beach for now

[green glade]

I will ye

just trying to design before I do anything too big

[wild portal]

[green glade]

terraforming is pain

[wild portal]

Ikr

[green glade]

where to put things aa...

[wild portal]

I’m planning for a tropical island but tbh. How? Just how am I supposed to do that? And where do I start

[green glade]

Leif sells hibiscuses in late July - September

[wild portal]

That’s..

Just what I needed

I looked for these flowers anywhere

[green glade]

I'm a TTer so I can get them for you if you dont wanna

[wild portal]

I’m one 2

[green glade]

I tt'd in new leaf
new horizons is no different :)

[wild portal]

[green glade]

although I love cherry blossoms, because pink trees are cool... I dont wanna face the eggs

[wild portal]

Ikr

Why the eggs, everyone hated it

[green glade]

I think Imma put my house at the final layer
to be ✨ fancy ✨

[river sky]

Hello can I have some feeds back on this I’m doing a tropical type theme

[burnt lily]

hey dudes i kina need help with my island is disorganized and i need help fixing it up

if anyone can help me plz dm i have no clue wha im doing

[oblique gulch]

Meh more cottage

[burnt lily]

??

[torn geode]

I swear designing a natural-looking orchard is impossible. It's always either way too cluttered or way too spaced apart

[burnt lily]

i dont know wht that is

[green glade]

welp... got a design. Now to do it ingame.

[torn geode]

@green glade Is your house supposed to immediately jump from 1st level to 3rd level? Just something I thought I'd mention

[formal vault]

Also the city hall thingy can’t be moved

You just gotta work around it

[bright echo]

The heart lake is nice tho

[torn geode]

Yeah but it's also impossible

[pallid arrow]

How is it impossible

[bright echo]

Is it ?

[torn geode]

Two diagonals next to each other don't work

[formal vault]

Exactly

[bright echo]

Ooooh okay. So how would it work then ?

[formal vault]

So therefore with your island design you need to work in a method which complies with gameplay mechanics

[torn geode]

This is an example that would work

Wait no

[formal vault]

Oooh yes oh lord

[torn geode]

Hang on I messed up

This is one that would work, I double checked this time

[bright echo]

I hate terraforming it’s so hard 😦 haha. And I am afraid to lose the island look and it looks kinda too much hand made. If that makes scenes haha

[bright echo]

That one is nice. Maybe I will try to make that

[woven drift]

My island came with a heart lake! I didn’t have to terraform it even!

[wintry junco]

Map is finally done :) for now lol

[woven drift]

Ohh that’s pretty

I’m new to the game tho

[night hawk]

can i have help on my island. I just started

[woven drift]

You need Nintendo online

If you have it then your all set

[night hawk]

can i have help on my island. I just started. DM

[bright echo]

Lucky you !!

[woven drift]

HHH TYY

[proven trellis]

I just started terra-forming today 🙂 I hopemy island turns out as good as some of the ones I've been seeing

[gritty spindle]

Can anyone help me design an island I will give you a handsome amount of bells

[formal vault]

THAT IS ADORABLE

[frosty orbit]

can somewon give me an island to vist im new and confused

[formal vault]

Well you could look up island yours on yt to give you a general idea

[frosty orbit]

no i mean i just wanna visit someone

[wintry junco]

#690093605821480980

[formal vault]

Ohh then yeah^

[frosty orbit]

i have no friends ; - ;

[formal vault]

Oh no I mean you need to go to island hangouts

Since I don’t have online myself and there someone will help

[proven sky]

What type of help do you need? Are you trying to brainsto

[void venture]

Any ideas on what to do with the antlers I made?

[woven drift]

maybe plant some trees? looks cool!!!

[void venture]

Thank you!

[torn geode]

Thoughts on Tangy’s orchard? Tried to make it look natural and connect with some other areas of my island.
Suggestions and improvements are appreciated

[void venture]

I think it looks really good! Are you planting oranges for her orchid ?

[torn geode]

@void venture Well this is the only orchard I have on my island, so it’s a mixture. When I run down the ramp, those first four trees are peaches. The next four are oranges, there’s three apples to the left of her house, three cherries on top of the cliff and the last four are pears

[north urchin]

if you saved some mushrooms from autumn, place those around. i rly like them as forest decoration xD

[torn geode]

Ahhh thanks for the reminder! Most of my island is decorated with mushroom items, so decorating with the little mushrooms is a perfect idea!

[burnt lily]

Yo hello I kinda need help with my island and idk what to do and anybody help me with my island

[lucid sand]

Some of my island layout

[pallid arrow]

What kind of help? Layout, decorating, inspo?

[burnt lily]

@pallid arrow what inspo

[pallid arrow]

Like inspiration for what to do in an area

[burnt lily]

Oh I need help with everything

It’s a mess

[pallid arrow]

Have you got a layout you like? I suggest you start there

Like the physical shape of your island

[burnt lily]

Nah idc what my island look like but it gotta look kool

I was hoping someone can just redo my island and fix it up and make it look kool

[pallid arrow]

Have you got a theme in mind? Because it’s a lot easier when designing if you know what you’re kind of going for

[wispy jay]

Anyone know what bench would go good with a japanese themed island? Rn I'm using iron garden bench and the normal garden bench, should I change the color of those work from white?

[pearl ravine]

i think white works unless you have any other clashing colors!

[burnt lily]

I kinda want all my village together I think a neighborhood then a small town would look kool

[wispy jay]

@pearl ravine I'm using the dark version of the stuff

[pallid arrow]

@burnt lily that’s sounds good! I found that when decorating it was easiest to start with the area I like the most so once those areas on your island have been created you could build from them and find what you like 🙂

[pearl ravine]

@wispy jay i still think white could work unless you really want eerything to be dark but white balances it out i feel

[burnt lily]

@pallid arrow the only problem is that it’s to hard to do and idk where to start

[stone ginkgo]

What should I put here?

[wispy jay]

@pearl ravine I mainly asked for a second opinion about it, I was gonna keep it white bc to much dark will look weird to me

[pallid arrow]

@burnt lily you could use island designer to create a layout before you commit to anything so that way you can make changes before finalising

[burnt lily]

Ye idk how to do that

[pearl ravine]

then my op is just keep it!

[upper swift]

Omg where do you get that??

[pearl ravine]

Does anyone have ideas or ispo on how to design a neighborhood with a more natural theme? Mainly looking for placements and landscaping ideas thank you! 🙂

[pearl ravine]

I believe it’s a gulliver item

[wispy jay]

@upper swift It is a gulliver item and I customized it to be that color but I got it by going to a treasure island on ebay, u can also get it by trading on nookazon but it may be expensive

[upper swift]

Great, thanks for the info!!!

[wispy jay]

Np! Glad I could help!

[drifting flower]

Is there any reason why this is orange? I moved everything behind it.

[pallid arrow]

@pearl ravine you could nestle the houses on top/in between some small cliffs or lakes? You could plan out the house plots using some path markers to make sure it’s not too crowded 🙂

[void venture]

It’s like that regardless when you move things

[drifting flower]

Ok, I was expecting it to be white haha. I thought orange was for when something is in the way

[pallid arrow]

I think it’s just orange cause it’s night time

[proven sky]

You should look up acnh neighborhood pics on Pinterest or Google

[mint sigil]

any ideas on how i can improve my front yard? i hate it rn lol

[craggy junco]

too much terracotta for my taste

[proven sky]

maybe adding more grass? having a smaller walking path

[mint sigil]

thx!

[proven sky]

you can then add more flowers and stuff

[burnt lily]

@proven sky I’m just to lazy I would rather someone do it for me

[mint sigil]

my whole island 's like that 🤮

[proven sky]

no one can build on your island except you

[burnt lily]

Fr

[proven sky]

yeah

[burnt lily]

Oh poop

[proven sky]

So we can all help you but you gotta put in the physical work and I think that’s what really makes you proud of your island

[burnt lily]

Nah I’m to lazy

[proven sky]

that’s too bad

[mint sigil]

does this look fine or should i change the floor?

[livid forge]

look greaaatt

[mint sigil]

thx!!

[spiral shale]

that’s rlly cute

[warm quartz]

^ That’s my island. Well parts of it anyway

[mint sigil]

before and after 😆

[zenith idol]

it looks so good wtf

[acoustic abyss]

it looks amazing !!

[mint sigil]

thx!

[edgy finch]

I'm trying to add a split pathway between my (messy) flower field from my bridge to some other paths. Any ideas on how to make the normal paths look kind of fancy instead of just doing lines of stone like everywhere else on my island? I want to make somewhat of a special area, so I want more than just stone lines

Edit: I'm open to making the path a little wider to accommodate

[acoustic abyss]

maybe do something like this with the 2 stone paths instead of the dirt ?

[strong sable]

0< almost done terraforming

[sour thistle]

My cloning room 😁😁😁

[edgy finch]

Oooh, that might be cool! Thanks for the idea!!!

[sour thistle]

Yeah. I put it in the basement too, to have a hidden lab effect. 😁 😁

[wispy jay]

@strong sable That looks amazing so far!

[dense swift]

just a mix of trees, flowers, cliffs, waterfalls, paths and stuff

and fences

[strong sable]

@wispy jay thanks 😊

[wispy jay]

Np😄

[woven drift]

I need advice! What’s a good KK song to play on a campground??

[latent grail]

I use the radio in mine so it's always playing something different. It's also what you start with when you're in a tent so it just made sense. :p

[faint rock]

simple=best lol

[woven drift]

you can just tt in april 2021, the eggs don't appear then because it's nowhere near easter ^~^

i'm going for a fairy forest-y theme and this is my entrance that also leads to the shopping district ^~^ thoughts? (work in progress)

[minor stone]

Great idea 💡 👨‍🔬⚗️

[boreal terrace]

I made a frozen ice castle for xmas/ winter 😁 i hope you guys like it ⛄️ ❄️

[boreal terrace]

I also made an xmas tree farm 🙂

[cobalt kestrel]

I have a natural heart of water and it is super special to me. It makes me feel like im in a kirby game

[candid acorn]

does anyone have recommendations for tacking the layout. should i do terraforming on the entire island before i begin placing items. or should i go square by square, or take it piece by piece using each of the concepts i want to include?

[novel dock]

Anyone free able to come to my island and give me feedback/ideas? Im new to the game and just started terraforming and decorating.... i have some blank areas that Idk what to make as well...

[proven flare]

may i come to visit?@novel dock

[idle ore]

@novel dock can I come to your island..?

[novel dock]

Let me dm you guys ^^

[gloomy obsidian]

I’m kinda stuck on what to do at my entrance, any ideas?

[woven drift]

maybe add some cliffs? and a waterfall would look nice aswell

[gloomy obsidian]

Ah ok I could try that

[plucky moat]

I normally do small areas at a time, eg if there is a specific area that I know what I want to do with then I will focus on that and move on to other areas later

[modest oak]

@gloomy obsidian you can do a nice little park/ sitting area with a small pond! lots of little bushes and trees that’ll lead up to able sisters

i think that’ll be super cute

[gloomy obsidian]

Thank you! That's a good idea :)

[oblique gulch]

Does anyone have ideas for the entry of your island?

[bright echo]

I have been looking for ideas myself. Maybe some waterfalls ? Or a fountain ?

[oblique gulch]

Mmhh yea

[bright echo]

I have some flowers and a music place. And I had some teddy bears but eh.....

[oblique gulch]

I’ve got this but I don’t really like it

[bright echo]

The flowers look cute tho.

[autumn cairn]

idk if this helps you guys but i have a waterfall on one side and a shopping area on the other @bright echo

[bright echo]

This is my entry

[oblique gulch]

Meh , I think I should like find a new path

[oblique gulch]

Ooh that’s cute

[bright echo]

Awh Thanks !

[onyx pilot]

@woven drift what is the code of your island?

[glossy sleet]

Fruit and honey shop !

Probably gonna add some flowers and items around ❤️

[golden wharf]

Im having Trouble getting inspired or finding out how My Island should look. Where do i start? How did you do it? Do I choose some kind of theme?

[frail dock]

anyone know what looks good next to the museum? i have a dig site right now and wanna change it

[slim fable]

probably some bugs/fish figurine showcase? or art showcase? or guiliver item showcase?

[woven drift]

it's not open for visits at the moment!! ^~^

[slim fable]

decide on what flower/trees you'd like to have first? maybe? or color?

[upper swift]

I put the whole t-rex outside and a few celeste items (asteroid, rocket, astronaut)

[frail dock]

thank you!!

[golden wharf]

@slim fable Yeah i can do that! Thx

[oblique gulch]

U can make a farm? Or a garden

[civic patrol]

is it possible to start over (even move townhall) but not loose any recipes or inventory?

[upper swift]

You cant move townhall, and you can redesign your island. But if you reset the game you lose it all

it starts from zero.

I recommend saving everything in your house storage, terraform, move everything and then decorating

if you want a new island with a new layout you need to reset, and that means losing everything. Unless you have a friend that can save your stuff (spare diys, not the ones you already learnt, items and tools)

everything you donated to the museum is gone, same with villagers...etc

[civic patrol]

Damn! Yeah i have 800 hours and i am just looking to start fresh and rekindle my love for this game.. and the placement of the townhall is killing me

[upper swift]

I hear you, I have 400 and I have redesign 3 times...and I want to do it again. I was thinking about resetting....but its too much. I love my villagers...

[civic patrol]

Yeah wayy to many negatives with resetting! Even just losing all the learnt recipes is terrible

[upper swift]

indeed, I still have spots on my island that I dont like...I'll be terraforming again for sure...and changing everything

[fair prawn]

I got the animal crossing edition of the switch for Christmas, so I have two islands now

[civic patrol]

Yeah thats the extreme way to have a new island.. buy a new switch!

[fair prawn]

Yh...

[upper swift]

insane though....my husband and I played new leaf, we bought a switch so we could play NH...but no, just one island per console

[fair prawn]

I wanted the special edition of the switch for ages and my switch lite has really bad drift and often freezes due to the amount of items on my island

It was becoming impossible to play

[upper swift]

wow, now I wanna see your island

[fair prawn]

Lol, its not that exciting, my switch is just slow. Anything past an early 5 star makes it slow down

[limpid forum]

i've seen a lot of cottagecore, if that helps, if you look up 'acnh aesthetics' there's plenty of examples!

[distant wagon]

New to the game and i traded for some different fruits and i just planted them ( the snowman is annoyingly in the way)

[woven drift]

from this angle it looks oddly nice- yeet

[torn wagon]

My fish garden 🐟

[full wave]

Any suggestions for this little spot?

[modest oak]

my entrance 🪴

[supple cipher]

hi y’all, i’m really struggling with where to put my villager’s houses. any tips? i have a natural theme / woodsy themed island

[warm fiber]

anyone got any ideas for this area?

[supple cipher]

i’m tempted to reset again bcuz i’m struggling but i don’t wanna lose everything again^

[snow dew]

Cant decide whether to restart im day 4 and kinda dislike my map aaa

[surreal canopy]

I have a couple rather small areas that I would like ideas on. My island doesn’t have a theme. The upper area connects to my decorations that surround my museum. And then across the river from the small patch of flowers is my farm area. I also have another small horizontal area in front of two villagers houses that has a dog park but other than that is a hoarding area. Anyone have any input? I’m waiting for wifi to get the rest of the fruits to build an orchard somewhere also.

[crude monolith]

I can’t decide if I want to restart either, I don’t like the name of my island and the layout, but I love my villagers, and I just got Marina to move to my island. It’s a tough choice.

[snow dew]

Thats literally the same as me, i just got wade and fauna but i dont like my map

[crude monolith]

Yeah, it’s a really tough decision.

[snow dew]

Im jus sitting here wondering what to do lolll

[crude monolith]

Me too

I really wish there is an option where we can rename our island, even if we could only rename it once.

[snow dew]

Ya for sure that’d be nice

Whatchu call it?

[crude monolith]

What is it named rn?

[snow dew]

Yeh

[crude monolith]

I couldn’t thing of ANYTHING at all so I named it cherry. Cherries are my native fruit.

[snow dew]

Ah noicee

[crude monolith]

But the theme I want isn’t a fruit theme

[snow dew]

Igy

[crude monolith]

I want more of a natural flower theme

[snow dew]

I wna reatart but i dont wna get worse villagers than i have

[crude monolith]

I get it, it’s so hard to decide

[steel smelt]

I have no idea how to layout my island. I’m so stuck for ideas it’s making me want to cry😅😅😭

[snow dew]

What day are u on @crude monolith

[crude monolith]

Wdym?

Idk I lost count

[bleak wind]

My not-so-mini campsite is finally complete 😊 ❄️ 🏕️

[snow dew]

Like how many days u been playing r u new?

[crude monolith]

No not really

I have had it since June

[snow dew]

Oh so uve like got a fancy island n stuff

[crude monolith]

My brother just got it so I could move all of my stuff onto his island and take it back, but then we still have the villagers to deal with

[steel smelt]

This is cute asf, I’d love to see other parts of your island!!

[crude monolith]

No i don’t have a fancy island

It is the exact opposite

[snow dew]

Maybe restart then, i would

[crude monolith]

Yeah

[snow dew]

I jus dunno what to do with mine

[bleak wind]

@steel smelt I'm not online right now, but I can dm you my dream address if you'd like ? 😄

[crude monolith]

Maybe I will just get one of those card thingys to get my favorite villagers back

[steel smelt]

Yes please!!🥰🥰

[snow dew]

Ya could do bit of luck involved with which ones u get tho

[crude monolith]

Mhm

[winter flicker]

Can someone help me with my camping area? I'm trying to theme it around Pocket Camp

[crude monolith]

I’m worried I will want to change my theme again

[snow dew]

Issa tricky one loll

Restarting is exciting tho with new fruit n new villagers

[crude monolith]

Yeah

[river sky]

Just got done with my mini pumpkin patch🎃✨

Ok, someone helped me earlier with how to get an item but now I need help with designing! The theme in going for is cozy, fantasy like village with cobblestone streets, stuff like that. I want it to have detail but also space and breathability. I just need help with design layout for some section of my island and what looks best with what. Anyone up for the challenge? Can you send reference pictures? I’m not quite happy with how it’s starting but I can only wrack my brain soo much. Any help appreciated. @ or message me. Thanks!

Edit: for a better visual, I’m leaning toward making sword art online towns cozy and nostalgic feeling

[winter flicker]

This is my camping area. I'm trying to do Pocket Camp/OK motors theme any other ideas how to achieve it?

Rituals: Coffee house in animal crossing

[upper swift]

if you have been playing for four days only DO IT. Its worse having to decide when you have spent 400 hours

[sage phoenix]

to find how many days you played for, go all the way down on you nook miles achievements on the far right and tap the one that says “Active Island Resident”

thats how many days

[crude monolith]

Ok thank you

[wispy jay]

The bridge I'm using is number 2, should I change it to one of the zen ones for a japanese themed island?

[sage phoenix]

for a japanese feel i think you should go for #8, #7 and #5

[crude monolith]

I have been playing for 61 days, I have a my dream villager, I hate my island name, and I don’t like the layout, but love the items I have. What is the best decision I can make? Should I restart?

[woven drift]

depends if you're going for a zen japanese island or a city like theme

[sage phoenix]

definetly not

thats progress going to waste there, ofc it’s also your opinion

[dawn tangle]

Hey guys can someone help me with a kidcore themed island

[wispy jay]

@woven drift this is my map atm, maybe that can help since the dream address is there to look

[woven drift]

judging by the terraforming, the zen bridgest could look nice

[sage phoenix]

yeah

[woven drift]

but then again maybe take pics of how it looks with each bridge and compare them

then settle on one

[upper swift]

I second this, its easier to redesign

[wispy jay]

I might do 5 bc I'm using the dark versions of the stuff

[woven drift]

yeah it might look too vibrant with the red one

[sage phoenix]

yeah, it would be a lot of work but terraforming the island heavily might make a difference

[sage phoenix]

5 seems best

after all #7 was just #5 with a different color

[cerulean bronze]

my new honey shop 💗🍯

[wispy jay]

@cerulean bronze That looks amazing 😄

[cerulean bronze]

@wispy jay thank you so much 🥺💚

[sage phoenix]

[river sky]

[sage phoenix]

[river sky]

@sage phoenix Yea I’m trying to make it as natural as possible by addin a lot of rivers and mountains and thank you lol

[sage phoenix]

[fallow pasture]

[nimble geyser]

hi everyone! i'm currently trying to get my island ready for new years, for the entire time that the games been out i was focusing more on collecting everything and bug/fish/sea creature catching so i've never actually dedicated time to making my island look nice, mainly because i'm so bad at it! if anyone could help me come up with some ideas or designs for my island that would be amazing!

[cerulean bronze]

[dawn tangle]

Can someone help me design a kidcore island

[ebon lantern]

I wish my island looked really good

Dead chat

[rugged fern]

Tasha’s Yard

[oblique mulch]

Some shrubs would be really cute or the turkey day garden stands either side to match the street lamps

[rich hollow]

Some pillows and cute plants in pots, vases 😇

[wispy jay]

Should I change the garden tables to the kotatsu and zen cushions?

[subtle acorn]

I like how it is now

but that is a super cute idea

[blazing tendon]

I think the garden tables look great with the path so I'd say you should leave it like this

[wispy jay]

This is what it looks like with the zen stuff.

[blazing tendon]

I think the garden tables still look better

[wispy jay]

Okie dokie

[woven drift]

@wispy jay try replacing the zen cushions with floor seats and see how that looks!!

i mean these ones

[wispy jay]

@woven drift ik what u mean and I'll try that

[woven drift]

and if you want to give it a more zen touch

change the path underneath with some custom wooden floor and if you can, put some bamboo partitions on the side (i hope i explained it well oof)

[hollow pollen]

i finally got the cliff forest area i've always wanted

[woven drift]

woah it looks neat!

[hollow pollen]

Thanks!

[balmy spoke]

I need help organizing my villager houses. Any ideas - islands? Paths? Move them? They are just scattered 😦

[woven drift]

depends on your theme

what theme are you going for?

[sullen comet]

This look good or no? I can’t decide. Any suggestions?

[balmy spoke]

I'm kinda starting from scratch- no real theme, just trying to get a nice, clean look right now.

[woven drift]

well for the start, i suggest moving all of them on the beach

and then decide whether you want them like

in a neighbourhood or still scattered

you have to plan it out a bit

[blissful socket]

any suggestions for this area?

[wispy jay]

@woven drift Like this?

[upper egret]

Anybody know of any close together neighborhood looking residentials that are a little "different" looking than most??

[fickle marlin]

Maybe add some colour! 🙂

[woven drift]

yep ^~^

[wispy jay]

@woven drift Does it go with it tho?

Like the path

[woven drift]

@wispy jay

read that

[balmy spoke]

@wispy jay thanks, that is a good idea!

@woven drift lol my reply was to you - good idea to move them all to the beach!!

[woven drift]

bdisvh lol xD

[balmy spoke]

Thanks!! I'm going to visit the dream addresses!!

[wispy jay]

[bright hawk]

I’m trying to make this little cafe thing with kind of a white and pink theme, does anyone have suggestions for other furniture or something I could add?

[woven drift]

The cherry blossom lantern, with moms cake and yule log in pink, street piano in pink and a white library bookcase🤔

🤔 and the pink counter from the café set

[gloomy solar]

Maybe use one of the stalls with one of the able sisters patterns them and use the white stall idk

[violet valley]

I want the mooooon xd

[woven drift]

Anyone have any good inspo for toy day items outside?

[barren mesa]

@woven drift this is what I did with some of the toy day stuff

[woven drift]

Oh i see so they could be incorporated into a playground then, neat idea

[hardy lance]

need an opinion, which ice texture works best with the current setup?

option 5:

[woven drift]

That’s tough i like them all

[mellow bridge]

ooh i like upper and bottom left the best

[woven drift]

Well then I’m gonna say upper left

[mellow bridge]

that's really cool btw, irysius! the blue fencing looks really good

[woven drift]

I'd say the first one.

[hardy lance]

1st one = top left yea?

[woven drift]

Yeah.

[hardy lance]

thx. i finally got some use out of the blue steel fences lol.

[woven drift]

I like the blue fences on a basketball court

[hardy lance]

thx all. i think i'm settling with top left after getting results from other channels.

[vivid saffron]

Any cemeteries..I wanna do something for my dad.

[upper egret]

[prime saffron]

^me honestly

[spring pike]

I need help with my island

Like I messed it up so bad

Ngl

[wispy jay]

Would the first or second path look better for a japanese themed island?

[spring pike]

The second one

@wispy jay

[wispy jay]

With this too?@spring pike

[spring pike]

I don't have any of those items

[woven drift]

Yeah, the cost of moving really brings out my inner perfectionist.

Especially early on.

[north urchin]

What’s the name of that table??? I need one!!!

[wispy jay]

@north urchin a Kotatsu

[north urchin]

Ah yes!!! Tyyy!

What are those chirstmas trees called?

[wraith oriole]

so I’m nearly done tearing down my terraforming but I have no clue how I wanna redo everything
how do you guys find muse to really even start with ideas?

[bleak marsh]

Might be easier to start witht the shops and the town area then move outward from there ??

[wraith oriole]

one thing that drives me nuts is how close town hall is to the airport - have had 0 clue on that (even with my last build) but I’m in way too deep to restart

[bleak marsh]

Yeah that’s a bit annoying ! Can you move the town hall?

[neon glen]

no

[bleak marsh]

I’ve made a little cafe area but idk if I like does anyone have any suggestions

Wow yeah that’s rly poo

[thorn cobalt]

my town hall is way closer to the airport than yours

and it makes me wanna cry

i have four units of space

[neon glen]

i just reset anyway even tho i was really far in the game.. rip

[bleak marsh]

How do you reset?

[neon glen]

delete the game save data in settings

[bleak marsh]

Ooooo Thats cheeky XD

[thorn cobalt]

Im really far and im really happy but I sooooo wanna reset. Only because I keep seeing these awesome entries online. i'll figure it out eventually

if only we could move it :(

[pallid arrow]

You could add some custom paths or flowers 😁 looks good
