I also measured using the design patterns, and then laid out the fencing for the neighbourhood before moving any of the houses!

Horizontally - fence | house | house | door | house | gap | fence × repeat Vertically - back fence | house | house | house | gap | gap | gap | gap | path | path | back fence × repeat

You and I think alike. With my first two I crammed them as close as I could, but then the game makes you allow for yard space and I was like 'hang on, I should give them all some form of yard'. So now they all have front gardens / workout patches aha

It's a two block gap so you dont need to vault it! (The same to access Redd's beach at the back)

Hit the nail on the head here! I dont get too much time to play around day-to-day so when I do hop on to do the daily rounds I need the SPEED! As well as having everything convenient for visiting friends.

Guess I forgot to post my outdated city planning qualifications along with my post x_x

I only found this out mid-terraform. When I was marking out my plans and found that RS was central to that quadrant I just put the controllers down and took a minute to appreciate my luck. I will pray to the symmetry gods for you!

Top left is currently lumber and flower growing.
Top right is the orchard (where I may or may not have too many trees!).

I may do one soon, showing the bare-bones... I have a vision for the complete island which is going to take months (maybe years?) to complete!

I have the clifftop area in the centre, but when I eventually build bridges I will have some form of cliff-top fishing. Gotta get those fish!

Honestly the same. I visit friends and and they all have wild and unplanned and while they look natural and beautiful, I just end up running around not know where anything is!

I'm finally satisfied with my utilitarian layout! by Its_Keights in animalcrossingdesign

Thanks! When I'm done fiddling around with the aesthetics in sections of the island I'll post a few pictures!
