#I don't know how ppl plot out those islands with such specific layouts that're full with all those little details

[paris-geller-was-straightwashed]

more progress! I have now expanded the house; exterior design, as well as the unseen extra rooms in the main area there which’re the bedroom in the back, the reading/office room on the left, the bathroom on the right, and the upstairs which I WANT to make a library but right now is mostly filled with random furniture LOL I’ve also moved the house and done some terraforming, in that I have a little main road there with the shops with my orchard in the back, a decorated campsite, and a little neighbourhood of my villager houses! I still have a long way to go though LOL

I gotta build the gym and potential park, as well as fully finish the little reading nook I tried to make - all in a days work! but I’m excited for halloween and already got my halloween decorations from nook’s cranny as you can see, and am looking forward to when the actual day comes.

we also got a new villager! I still have yet to get my 10th, but then cleo (who was fine, but just in terms of my own villagers, my least liked) voiced a desire to move, and I thought it might be interesting to see who else we could get. I wanted another normal, as they’re usually very sweet and pretty easy - and it only took my second mystery nook ticket to find norma! she’s a pretty pink cow and is so cute, so that was a good choice.

but mostly the big thing, is that I finally caved and bought happy home paradise - and that’s where most of my acnh time has sunk LOL I won’t bore you with the details, so I’ll just put some of my favourite designs/clients underneath the cut-off. I’m really looking forward to finally being able to re-make my own villagers homes - especially those who have fuck all in their houses, they’re definitely in need of a makeover! LOL

more to update, once I finally get started on my own island again LOL

to start off, of course, the obligatory first house that I did, which was for olivia - unsurprisingly bad, but for a first timer I’m still glad of the work I did LOL

roscoe! roscoe I really loved, the second I saw him on the beach and all alarms blared going “emo horse!!!!!!!!” LOL he was actually the first one I looked up to see their colour palate and their interests to decorate the house. I don’t actually have any cranky types on my island, and I always said I didn’t want one, but I think if I get some ambiio cards and I land him, he’s definitely coming over X)

my second favourite client probably, dizzy! he was just so cute and adorable, impossible not to love. he wanted a playroom, and I actually think I did I good job on that (though you can’t really see the toy section from this angle but this was the best photo LOL). he’s another I want to get if I get his ambiio card.

here’s huck! this one I like especially, bc his theme was that he wanted a room to have adventures. I have a habit when home building to just, like, put things in corners (the bed, t.v & couch, kitchen or bathroom, etc) to make sections and I end up doing that with a lot of the homes, but with this one instead I thought to mix it up. I put in a little cave, and then built around it with a sleeping bag and campfire and whatnot to make it seem like he was a travelling adventurer, taking shelter there for the night. I think it turned out nice!

my most recent! sterling said he wanted a ‘sci-fi’ theme, which I immediately jumped on - and had so much fun doing. I built him a little base control in the centre, then, as if he was on a travelling ship like the enterprise, a bunk-bed, a rec corner with a tv and couch, and a kitchen full of stocked food cans and synthetic meals LOL

here’re some yards I’m pretty proud of - the insides meh, but I liked how the outsides turned out, of both melba who wanted a ‘fairytale’ theme and tipper who wanted a farm, respectively

and here’s just some rooms I think turned out nice or a just enjoyed LOL

this is just a fun one, from when I got assigned the restaurant make-over; during the clip show you get to see after, there was a moment where curt just stopped here and fully stared at me for a good few full seconds - I think he’s pissed I didn’t leave him any counter space LOL

and finally, here’s a cute photo of me and wardell
