15 Beautiful Neighborhood Ideas // Animal Crossing: New Horizons

[@LexPlayy]

What would you like to see next for 15 ideas? Thanks for watching :D

[@avinoired]

15 garden ideas. I'm really stuck on how to decorate the outside of my house!

[@Lilycatxo]

Maybe front room/house interiors, I know a lot of people struggle with the front room and just decorating their house in general.

[@MossCrossings]

this is kind of vague but I'd love to see some ideas for cool ways of using bridges, like with overlooks and tiered areas and whatnot! I tend to use bridges in a very basic way and I need some bridge inspiration

[@xRaiofSunshine]

Filler areas!

[@electrocampbells9286]

Ooooooh, 15 rock garden ideas!!!!!

[@Materaz17]

I swear I could 1 to 1 replicate these designs and still somehow make it look worse

[@breaandrea3724]

Same! I step back after attempting one of these designs and i'm like "This doesn't look right"

[@iamduckyz189]

Same 😂

[@allankh85]

😂 I tried all day today since I discovered this video. I tried to l replicate second by second, inch by inch and OMG mine looks horrible 😩

[@RonjaK4]

Damn, this has made me feel really shitty about my island haha

[@nighhtmre8924]

same:(

[@autumnjewel3527]

me too :( but also- it is just a game. As long as we’re having fun, we’re doing well. And most of our islands don’t look this nice. Takes a lot of time and planning.

[@egoisticflamingo5869]

I just hope I can make mine look like one of the islands in the video ;;

[@dimitriosamu9342]

Honestly tho 😔

[@fishstickjsbsjssv]

OML SAME.

i wish you´d shown the maps of their island so its easier to visualize what they did😔

Check the desc it has dodos

[@elayena]

i just got terraforming and was VERY VERY excited i fell into a rabbit hole of island ideas and now i am VERY VERY OVERWHELMED

Who cares it's helpful for others who liked the same ones

[@jhonalizababatio5410]

I really don’t know how to design my island. This is so depressing 😭

[@sarahmitchell7799]

Try just starting with a small section of it! I started at the top right corner and have been slowly making my way through section by section. Don't aim for perfection on the first pass; as you go, you'll probably think of more ideas and go back and improve what you've already worked on. Also don't forget that it's YOUR island and it does have to look as fancy as other people's islands. For me, most of these are way too cramped, busy, and hard to navigate. Mine has a more spread out feel so I can easily catch bugs, chase down balloons, and just generally traverse from one side to the other. It will never be as intricately designed as the islands shown in this video, but it feels just right for my play style. Steal ideas when you see ones you like, but ultimately focus on how YOU want to play! Don't pressure yourself to have good designs; as long as your island is functional for your play style and looks good to you, then it's a good design!

how are people so creative? its truly amazing

[@TaylorPettitt]

not me literally searching KZbin for villager neighborhood ideas YESTERDAY and today you upload this, it was meant to be!

[@livgeneral6487]

House placement is so difficult for me. I am really trying to figure out how to make a cohesive neighborhood

[@hvnn5093]

Use Design stickers on the ground to measure villager houses are 4x4

[@ChaoticallyCosmic]

There's a guide to the house placements.

[@caleighhraee]

Plot out their houses with fences around them, that’s what made it easy for me. I have 3 in each little neighborhood and then my house on the tallest cliff 🤟🏻

[@aria4830]

Gotta love Lex showing love to other creators. So wholesome.

[@lexi8893]

I swear I can’t be creative with this stuff. I’m jealous of how people are so creative

[@bandersnatchbeauty9692]

Only critique on this: I'd have liked to see the maps. The video was great though. Great content, and great locations.

[@indyohno]

Every time I think I’m happy with my island I see videos like this and I get re-inspired

[@clawdmoviemonster]

Buying a Switch and ACNH to still be watching Island Ideas while my island is still in 5% progress after a year was the best thing

[@tammyferrer9946]

I know I’m not the only one but I’m so shocked by how perfect the timing was for this upload!! I JUST started working on my neighborhood the day this was uploaded !

[@caleighhraee]

I always plot out the houses with fences. Each house has that cute palm tree lamp in their yard, a little garden with a Lilly of the valley in each yard and two stone lanterns at their entrance 😊

[@pavloverboy]

I wanna make mini neighborhoods for some of my villagers who have the same aesthetic, this video inspired me to put Stitches' and Bob's houses together in a little rainbow playground :) When I get the Sanrio amiibos, I wanna give Chelsea and Sherb their own cafè too, complete with Sanrio furniture ❤❤

[@lanadelrey6613]

I love these videos to remind myself how terrible I am at design

[@itsEdamaami]

“How to decorate when your resident services plot is way too close to the airport”

[@cabomar4395]

Omg too relatable

[@caleighhraee]

I make a little walkway to the resident services to make it seem bigger. I put two waterfalls on either side with little ponds, then two diagonal bridges to get to resident services on either side. Decorated the cliffs of the waterfalls with my Lilly of the valley plants and Halloween decorations!

[@azkashaykh8054]

Your videos are so aesthetically pleasing. I am so torn between flattening or restarting. Overwhelming

[@TheSleepyWarlord]

I understand your struggles I hate the way my island is terraformed and it’s kind of too late to change a lot of it and I do NOT want to restart my island

[@withness]

I’m just a bit appalled Dream Ness didn’t go and sit with you by the berliners. SMH.

[@LexPlayy]

HAHAH I forgive her

[@goatchild4821]

Thanks so much Lex for visiting Penniland again! Your so kind!🥰

[@speccysquaregolike9629]

You make comments that are worth making and I think that's what makes you stand out. I get annoyed when people do island tours and they just don't stop talking. I like the pacing of the comments you make and I don't get bored hahaha

[@juliberrix]

2:06 is one of my fav islands bcuz it gives me a idea of fairycore and cottagecore

[@Kay-rl9zw]

Coming from someone who’s down time is around 1am-3am I never really see my island during the bright sunny days it’s nice to see island examples at night because most of the time when I look at island ideas it’s in a sunny setting not the night one and that’s the only time I see my island, thank you!

[@maryannedu9666]

THANK YOU SO MUCH LEX for featuring my island Port Fairy ❤️❤️ awesome video as always 💕💕

Me too! Lol

[@Idkkkkkkkkkk-in9ns]

Thank you so much I am a first time player and am so early into the game that resident services is still in construction to be an actual building instead of a tent. Thanks to this video, I have so many future island ideas that I have taken notes of. You just got a new subscriber!

[@PinkWytchBytch]

This is helpful to a degree. I literally just started the game for the first time about a week ago and I’m slowly getting the hang of things. I have this very nostalgic, cozy vibe I’m growing for, like I want the island to have that sense of “calmly listening to Lofi music and coffee on an Autumn morning” you know, kinda nostalgic vibes

[@heleng6550]

This is making me actually excited to redo my neighborhood area omg

[@elsie5796]

samee

[@mrsannettelee]

So I just started playing animal crossing about 3 Months ago and I am totally obsessed with it, I have waaayy too much time on my hands to play and let me tell you I was so proud with how my island is looking, this was the first AC video I have seen and I have come to a realisation. OMG MY ISLAND SUCkS LOL. I think I need to rethink everything including my life choices hahaha

[@mrsannettelee]

I have so many questions about so many things. Hey I'm great at fishing though. I have that going for me

[@goodbyecowgirl]

omg i’m adding a neighborhood to my island rn and you posted this just in time!! ty!!

[@rory_c_19]

What I love about your videos is the amazing community that you've created! It's so nice to see islands in the video that I've actually been to trading items and DIY recipes on your discord server :)

[@janetmcnutt4994]

The only thing with these neighborhoods is that there is no place to roll a snowball in the winter and finding and digging up fossils. The more stuff on the ground the harder it is to perform some money making activities.

[@mj44190]

Agreed, a lot of these highly manicured islands feel pretty crowded

[@Lvl1Critters]

the second one was soo lovely and cozy looking, definitely goals for a springy natural yet still organized build

[@lindseymeola2238]

This came at the best time!! I was just looking to re-do my villager homes and didn't want to do a super grid-style neighborhood. Thank you so much! :)

Wow this video game at JUST the right time! I have been stuck on what to do with my villager neighbourhoods for two days. Great timing, Lex!

[@JessicaPancake2]

Is there a filter on this video? Some of the islands lighting looks so different to my own, was wondering if I am crazy, different hemisphere/season has different lighting or the video has a filter?

[@nitnitmarbella]

May I ask? How to get those furnitures for your dream theme?

Hi lex! Sorry I haven't sent the drawing yet, I've been really overworked with school and really needed the time for relaxing. I had 13 new assignments just last week which is insane compared to the normal 6!

Also my island is almost done so I can't wait to finally submit it for a tour!

[@natashaprince5847]

What would people suggest for getting started? I am just a few weeks into the game (hoping to get my 3 stars in a couple days) and I’m not sure if I should plan out the whole layout then decorate later, or fully complete a small part of the island at a time?

[@goodwolf866]

So how do people coordinate the color or types of houses. I play on the switch so I am guessing that limits a lot of what I can do? Also, are the picnic blankets custom tiles?

[@judystanclift5090]

Some of these Islands put mine to shame. I wish I had thought about some of these things before I put my neighborhood in. Now looking back my house’s are too close. I may redo them.

[@thetastytk]

Is there somewhere to post islands? I have a perfect neighborhood that I think would belong on this list

[@tidag]

You can find some communities on Reddit where people post islands. That would be a good place to share yours

[@caleighhraee]

I like to have all of my fruit trees in orchards together, it really helps plot a neighborhood! And I always put up fences to plot out where their houses will go 😊

Would it be best to fully decorate your island when you start your island with just you and your 2 villagers or build up as you go along as you get each of your 10 villagers.
