Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.
Is anyone aiming for a specific "Island theme"?

You got any links/pics/vids to these? I'm really interested in getting some inspiration/ideas from others for mine, I'm thinking I might make a small area a feudal Japanese area and the rest a more modern take (Given the items we have via nook miles could be used for that.
I wish we could "Force" the residents into having a specific house theme like yours to fit the island, I doubt this is a thing though.

The island that mimicked Shibuya I saw on Instagram:
The other one I saw on YouTube, but I will need to find the video later.

I was going to go for seasonal themes but because i just started this game and I have like nothing I don’t think I’ll be able to complete my spring theme which was suppose to be like fairy/whimsical like with lots of pink and white flowers. Right now I’m just trying to focus on my layout and getting every house into the right place.
Summers theme is going to be tropical/nautical with warm colored flowers. I think I’ll be able to complete that.
Autumn is going to have a lot of mushrooms and have a spooky theme with red, orange, and black flowers.
Winter is obviously just going to be a winter wonderland with blue, purple, and white flowers.

Im kinda just doing what I always do and just decorating a small part of the island whenever an idea strikes me. no real theme tbh aside from deciding on paths, fences, and color schemes of flowers in different areas of the island.
kinda just doing a classic/basic animal crossing town as well, and just doing what I always did in NL (just decorating and landscaping in small chunks with no real planning ahead). But so far its quite a cozy, soft, flowery, naturey, clovery type vibe. ive got clovers built into my paths, and i have villager houses in different places as well. my cranky octavian is gonna be isolated by himself in a bamboo and orange tree forest. zucker and marina are on the beach. i still need to work on decorating the outsides of their houses according to their personalities, though. ive kinda been neglecting that part of island decorating

Y'see I like this, alot, I might turn a part of my town into something similar (Where my shops/houses are) and then keep a more "Rural" theme elsewhere. I wonder if these have links to their patterns used?

I didnt find the codes for the patterns, unfortunately.

Dang, I might have to look on a few sites for similar or come up with them myself... IDK if I'll have Japanese lettering (as I'm English)

Hey fellow ES fan! My island is called Valenwood and has many themes.
My lower island is a town proper, with a high street, shopping district and two residential streets. at the North of the Avenue is the Museum and event plaza. To the East of town, across the bridge is the rural area, with Norma's farm and the flower fields. North of the river, by the lake, is Annalisa's Asian hideaway, with lanterns and bamboo and cherry blossoms.
The higher level is entirely forest, with a quaint woodland path, Erik's log cabin, a picnic area by the waterfall and a secluded campsite. To the west is a cliffside waterfall andthe eastern elevation is the private residence of Island rep Foxxie.
Life was clearly too short for me to pick one theme

I have no idea yet. I know I don't want a Japanese theme even though I like that aesthetic and there are a lot of beautifully done ones like that. My main idea right now is to have 4 separate areas in the island with different seasonal furniture/landscaping/vibes, so I'll have little winter, spring, summer, and fall enclaves. I'll probably do other mini themes like this throughout but not necessarily a larger theme overall unless I think of something good.

I was going to make a cutesy, pastel island, but it's turned into a Japanese-inspired rural village in the mountains. The villagers live on the upper tiers of the island with the shops on the lowest tier. I have a bamboo forest near the airport I'm working on.
I mainly have bamboo items available to me which is why it's inspired by Japan. I don't have much else to work with.

Mine will be themed roughly after the town I used to live in Japan, but with a more modern overlay than what most Japanese-themed islands have. So, I'm using a lot of the smaller aspects from my prefecture/town like brick roads, vending machines everywhere, Japanese-style school yard, bamboo-lined streets, orange groves, etc. but It won't look super sterotypically Japanese, because most towns in Japan now are a blend of eastern and western (and probably more heavily western, at that).
I will have a couple areas that are more traditional (like a rock garden, and one of my townspeople's houses will be an onsen inside), but other than that, it'll just be a cozy place to live that reminds me a bit of the smaller things I miss from Japan. But it won't be heavily developed or overly landscaped - just small nostalgic touches here and there. Mostly, I still want it to feel like an island rather than a city, or anything like that.

Honestly, not really. I just wanna make my town cozy, a place I'd really like to live.

I'm doing a forest town, like a couple other people on the thread. It's what I finally settled on in NL, and I really liked how cozy it felt. It seems like the tree limit in NH is awfully low, so I'm hoping furniture and mushrooms and things can help fill it in.
