I LOVE this build so much. Just an idea for the care centre though, maybe instead of using the butterfly models in the study carrels you could catch the butterfly’s and place them there instead. It might look a little more functional because they’re live and in a cute lil cage. Its just a thought haha but regardless i think this is such a cute and creative build💗💗💗💗💗

[@newhurizons]

omgg I love this idea!! I will definitely try this in the next episode~

[@rrrnbb]

@ yayy, i’m super excited to see how it looks!💓

[@nerinanana]

I was gonna say the same thing! It'll look more realistic I can't wait to see the result ☺ Otherwise super cute build!

[@averysmith9943]

This is SUCH a unique idea for a build and it came out so detailed and pretty. You are amazing. I’m so excited for the celestial campsite!

[@newhurizons]

Thank you so much! 💖 I'm really excited about the celestial campsite too, it's gonna be so pretty!

[@joyjohnson8776]

Everything looks so amazing. Love love love the marsh

[@newhurizons]

Thanks so much!! I liked that area too, even though it wasn't planned.

[@joyjohnson8776]

@newhurizons Girl, I always trust your process it never fails

[@AfroPuffs45]

You should try stunting some trees with fruit before they finish fully growing to give your trees more variety instead of only using fully grown ones!💕

[@newhurizons]

That's a great idea! I'll definitely try that for my next build~

[@-Ang3lic]

hi tiger! i absolutely love your island aesthetic and i’ve been wanting to change mine. the flower scheme in the island matches perfectly and i love the way that it looks. i want to do something like that but i also want to have some color and so the flowers match with any season because i want my island to look good in any season in animal crossing. also what flowers do you breed to get the green mums because they look amazing! i’m just asking for any suggestions or ideas because i’m really conflicted. Thanks!

[@Memmyrabilia]

This reminds me of my local zoo, where they used to have a seasonal butterfly exhibit! I always loved using the greenhouse boxes for these types of builds since the exhibit was in a lush greenhouse

[@newhurizons]

I’ve never been to a butterfly exhibit, but you’re making me want to go!! 🥺

[@stinkydx714]

this is so simple yet so cute and clever!!! i cannot wait until this island is finished!

[@newhurizons]

thank you!! same omg, it's going to be so satisfying

[@Novac.Crossing]

Stunning build!! The ponds are perfection 😍

[@Twistytheshark]

This build is actually genius I never would have thought of it

[@newhurizons]

😭😭 I love butterflies loll

[@Twistytheshark]

@newhurizons when I was little I was terrified of butterflies for some reason ( I'm not anymore lol)

[@ozmathegreatand]

I love when people use Blathers’ tent for builds!

[@newhurizons]

SAME, it looks so nice

[@dj-wx6se]

The amount of detail in these builds is stunning. (I can already see the lag this island will probably have unfortunately). Still good.

[@newhurizons]

Yeah, I definitely might have to make some sacrifices in future builds to avoid too much lag! 🙈

[@bryannrebecca]

Love how this turned out! Very pretty!

[@newhurizons]

[@chaoticneutral7976]

Creative and cute as usual

[@newhurizons]

Thank you! 😊

[@grxce0523]

i’m doing a cottagecore/meadowcore island and i placed the museum tent without thinking so now i have to figure out how to incorporate it as a building instead of the tent 😭😭😭

[@jokiczoran8067]

You could put it close to the plaza and add the other buildings and make it like a town square of a village? You could also make a library right by the museum it could be like a "study place"

[@HopeH]

I hope this isn't a dumb question... what is the green tent to the right of your build? Is that the museum? Won't it get larger later on? Great video btw, I love your aesthetic! Your builds are so cute and inspiring :)

[@newhurizons]

Hey :) Yeah, it's the museum from the beginning stages in the game. Since I didn't complete the quest where you give 15 specimens to Blathers, the museum tent never turned into the building! Thank you

[@cyberpigeonovo]

sorry if you've already said but is there a reason you chose lumi for the name of this island? its a super cute name but because of mario i associate it with stars so im curious if theres Another association for the word or if its just a cute name you picked

[@newhurizons]

I picked it for no reason other than I thought it was so cute and I love how it sounded natural and earthy but yeah with like a magical or starry vibe! 🥺
