Below I am copypasting a sort of backstory/explanation written by a Bell Tree user that knows the creator of Aika Village. All credits go to:
Remember that this is the backstory of the NEW LEAF town, not the New Horizons one. They are very similar, but I believe some things are a bit different.
Edit: I recently found out said OP lied about Aika Village and started spreading this rumor. Sorry for misleading everyone and contributing to the spread

Hi. I personally know the creator of aika village and I want to share with you all about the true story behind this village. I think this story deserves more recognition.
It is about the creator's life. Basically, it is about a girl who was raped and how she suffered from many disorders like schizophrenia, personality disorders, etc. I will explain more about the details below. This topic consists of sensitive subjects, just a heads up to you all.
When you first wake up inside the dream, you will see the strange black and white patterns on the ground allover the place. When you move around and look at these patterns, you will notice that they will make your eye vision a bit strange. This symbolizes the point of view in her eyes in her early childhood. She see's things... differently from others. Waking up from the bed to see these patterns symbolizes how she had awoken from child birth and every day of wakings as a baby, she developed disorders and grew up to learn and see things.. differently.
The disorders she developed was personality and schizophrenia.
There are flowers around the first house because she used to talk to flowers when she was a child. And because of her disorders, the flowers would talk back to her...
When you enter first house- there is a birthday cake and a present. Of course, this symbolizes her birthday. She got a doll for her birthday. The Mannequins symbolize her imaginary friends that she would hallucinate from schizophrenia, and her personality disorder as well. The present was her first doll, and she would hallucinate this doll talking to her just like the flowers.
Upstairs is her bedroom. She had many toys as a child, and she loved to paint (she had an art talent.) and she loved her mother very much. She had a pet dog and lived with her parents (she is an only child) which is why that is painted on the paintings displayed upstairs.
When you are walking in the direction to the 2nd house, things start to get a bit ugly... as she grew up she began to see things more differently and more.... scary. instead of the pretty flowers that used to talk to her, there are ugly weeds. This resembles how she grew up and began to see and hallucinate things differently. It seems that as she grew up... her disorders did as well. And the slow and scary change in environment in this town resembles this.
If you walked into the lost and found, there are tons of bee hives. This resembles how she used to talk to bees as well whenever she would talk to flowers.
When you enter the 2nd house- there is a maze. This resembles how her life became a maze as she grew up as a child and struggled with the disorders she had. The signs represent running away.
When you finish the maze of chairs, you enter a room and see all those dolls.... those resemble her toys. Because of her schizophrenia, she would hallucinate them with voices... they are turned around from you because in her hallucinations, they turned their backs on her and hated her. She hallucinated this because when she is stressed out, especially as a schizophrenic, she will hallucinate bad things and as a result, she hurt herself, whether it be physically or mentally. So from there, she hallucinated her dolls going against her as a way to hurt herself. At the time, she had no friends and her only friends were the voices that she heard in her toys. When you turn around, there are eyes on the wall that is looking at the dolls. This resemble her eyes. In these eyes, you see confusion... fear.. despair... and anger. All because her dolls hate her... and it hurts.
Upstairs, there is adam, eve and the snake. She put this in there because she grew up in the religion of jesus christ, and she would think that the reason why she lived horribly in her mind is because of eve, who she believed to be the first woman born on earth and also the first woman to disobey god and take the apple. She believed that because of this, every women will now be punished as well as her. She believed that she is being punished with disorders, and she believed that she was born a punishment to her mother because of the disorders she has and how she took it out on her family many times.... and in the basement, there is a party. All those dolls represents her imaginary friends/people and dolls she hallucinated voices from... The axe represents the terror behind this disorder.
Outside, dog houses are buried... because she killed her own dog from the stress she suffered with. The mittens that lay by the graves represent her hands.... because it is her hands that killed her dog.
On the beach there are shoes... because she developed severe depression and attempted suicide many many times.
In the 3rd house- there are book shelves and the doll... In this point of time, she is around her teen age. The books resemble how she would go around and read about her disorders and ways to treat it. The sound you hear in this room with book shelves resemble the scary screams she would hallucinate. If you find what item it is coming from, and if you notice, the more closer you get to it, the more high pitched it gets. This resembles how every time she attempted to get close to a treatment in her studies, she got very pressured and doubtful of finding a cure. The stress of all this pressure and doubt made her screaming hallucinations worse.
The room with the journal and papers resemble her diary pages and drawings... She looked at writing and journalism as a way to relieve the stress these disorders gave her.
Upstairs is her room in her teen years. The paintings displayed everywhere represents a drawing of herself. As an artist, she constantly drew herself because growing up with the disorders she had on her own and how she went against herself everytime, she thought that loving herself more would change that.
In the basement, there is a room.... the bed has a outline of a person. This resembles how she got raped. The doll is there to resemble her disorders and the tiny pink baby bed resembles how she suffered with pregnancy from this rape... the doll that sits in front of it resembles how she lost her mind from her disorders and out of fear and stress, got a miss-carriage purposely.
In the 4th house- the house is messy. This resembles how messy her life became. Upstairs she crosses everyone out in the paintings because she realized that she went through all of this alone. Down stairs in the room behind the dresser... stands the doll, heads and the mannequin. This resembles her and her imaginary friends in her head went through this... all alone.
All the animals houses have dolls because it represents how her disorders (the doll) got in the way of getting along with people. But if you notice, one house, which contains no dolls at all resembles her best friend that was there for her through all of this... the only person who was close to her. His house is space themed because in the real life, her best friend loves space.
