I'm obsessed with the clean and minimalist vibes! It feels so open and airy!

For the little beach in front of Beau’s place, a little soccer field would be adorable!

Don’t forget the Tiny Library item! It’s another underrated Normcore thing!

I remember everyone making diners using the dining furniture as well as residential areas with hedging around the houses! Also orchards, with every fruit in straight lines, no variations at ALL LOL

I remember many islands in 2020 having DIY/item trading stalls, I think that would be cute for nostalgia! A gyroid growing area, rainbow flower garden, vegetable garden, star gazing area would be great for this island! Excited to see it come along and get ideas for my own island 😊

Marshall is cute. I fell in love with Gonzo and Sherb, they are on my island forever. I would love to have Ankha. Molly is always 10 out of 10

I feel like melissa should try and get one of every villager type (lazy, jock, etc) bc thats how we all used to play

I love this theme!! It’s my favourite! Oh and a classic idea: post office!!

OMGGGG IM SO EXCITED! Whenever I see you post, an instant cheesy grin forms on my face! 🐿️ 🐿️

Sorry in commenting twice, but I’ve been using more in game pathways recently and I love make shapes with the edges. I’ve done hearts, circles, leaf shapes (round opposite edges and leave the others pointed), and even half circles on the sides of straight paths! It’s been lots of fun and shows up on the overhead map 😊

my first love in acnh was tangy, she was the first villager i found and she is still in on my island today 🩷 the build today is sooo cute, i‘m excited for the series melissa! thanks for your amazing content 🩷☺️

Bye biscuit, hello BEAN!!! I’m so excited to see your take on normcore 😁

So excited for this, I'm doing a non terraforming no codes island aswell, and no treasure islands should be fun lol. Looking forward to the rest of the series

Love this! So fun and nostalgic seeing an island being decorated the way they were back at the beginning. Very well decorated and Molly is 100% 10/10

Love this theme!!! My theme always ends up Norm Core😜 My favorite villager is Sheldon..he always makes me laugh! Can’t wait to see what you do 😁

Yes a lot of inspiration and a lot of motivation.. also keeping me company as I listen on speakers while playing myself it's really comforting

This is so cuuuuuuuuuute! I remember building like this when the game first came out, before I ever thought to look on AC Instagram, lol. :D Marshal is so precious omg, I got him as my campsite villager on my recently restarted forever island and I screamed! 🌰My first favorite villager was Kyle. I still adore him! He was my BFF in ACNL. When ACNH first came out, a very kind person in an AC discord channel helped me find him 😭it was so sweet of them! I have since acquired his amiibo card, and now he can be my BFF forever. At the moment, though, I'm trying to have villagers I've never had before and give them a chance, and let everyone move out who wants to move out and see who I can find on islands. Trying to spice it up and keep it new/different, you know? Molly earns 10/10 beans, she's the most adorable little lass. She got her own lake filled with ducks on one of my islands, bc she's the best girl and she deserves it! Also, I feel your pain trying to do stuff around the villagers. I was just doing a big build and I swear they were all walking around the cliffs I was trying to set up and water I was trying to add, like I love you guys, but GO AWAY 🤣 Looking super forward to seeing what comes next! :D

Melba and Maple were my first favorites. I still have them on my island that I've had since Day #1. All my other villagers have changed multiple times

I recently started playing new horizons and I love this kind of videos, this gives me a lot of nice ideas for my own island and its so relaxing to watch on my second screen while playing myself the game. Loving your designing style

Omg! Loving the normcore vibes! Your narration has me in stitches! Speaking of which, stitches was the very first villager that I just love, he’s sooo coot! Second fave is lolly! I have subscribed as I’ve got to follow the journey of your island. I love the feeling of starting a new island just can’t beat it, but then I get burn out! I think the idea of doing an island with no terraforming is a really good challenge and I bet quite liberating too! I will defo be having a go at that as soon as I’ve finished my elegant core island which is sending me stir crazy! 🐿️🥜🐾🐾 (for Marshall) Brilliant video and love your entrance, very cute. ❤

i love how the island is turning out!!! its so refreshing!!

i’m so happy i found this series because i don’t play online so normcore is all i got!! but i terraform and waterscape 🌟

I’m actually obsessed with this island so far!! I’m getting so much inspiration!

That is super cute! Stitches is my favorite! He has to live on all my islands no matter the theme. He is just the cutest.

So excited for this series! I started a normcore island but strayed away from the style on accident and now thinking redoing it all!

This is such a cute build!

Hello! Lucky for me, KZfaq suggested this video and I found it delightful. I’m kind of glad you skipped the tedious very beginning. I was thinking of doing something similar so I’m especially interested in what you’re doing here. I quite like the “normcore” islands that aren’t overly cluttered or hard to navigate. I’ve seen some gorgeous gorgeous builds that would be highly impractical to get around if you’d like to complete the fish or bug collections. The first villager I wound up loving was Lyman. He’s not terribly popular but he was my very very first and was always smiling and always had something nice to say. He was never annoyed when I talked to him (unlike the sisterly who says “you again!”). Now there are a few that I adore including Opal, Celia and believe it or not, Klaus.

I fell sooo in love with Clay, Genji and Beau, a forever place in my heart

What a beautiful start to your new island. I really wish I could get mine to turn out like that. Loving the theme, and looking forward to your next video.

I love this so much! It is super cute how your villagers enjoyed the area as well !

YES. I’ve been waiting for this. IM SO EXCITED.

I love normcore; it's so easy and relaxing. That's what I'm doing with my Forever Island!

my first villager was sherb as soon as i saw him i instantly fell in love 😭 he’s so cuteeee

This is so nostalgic! My first build I was really proud of was a Chinese/sushi restaurant, and my first favorite villager was Maggie! I still love her

I looooove Marshall. He's never leaving. After 4 years I finally got coco and I'm in love . Clay is awesome too!

working on my very first island and i didn't realize this theme has a name lol i'm excited to be inspired by more of your building and decorating on this island! :D

Omg this island is coming out so cute! I just found your channel through this video and I'm definitely subscribing and looking forward to more episodes of this series hehe❤

Ooooo excited for this island!!

omg I haven’t watched you in so long so glad I finally got the time for it again!! lovely build as always and I love your voice btw :DD

You are incredibly talented at designing an island!!

Omg normcore island ! Finally, I'm so excited. Thank you so much, aaaah I ALREADY LOVE IT. 😭❤️🌱

I'm so excited for this new series!! I was also thinking about doing the same theme, so your videos are going to be a big inspiration really!!

That’s so refreshing to see some normcore builds!

Immediately fell in love w Alfonso!! He was so adorable and always made me smile and laugh

As someone who just started a norm core island I am exited to take inspiration from you! ❤

girl i was villager hunting watching this, when u said how molly was cute i thought of how much i wanna get her, LITEARLLY in the same moment i saw her...... my heart dropper lmao

Can’t wait to see you do the beaches! I’m planning a tourist-y looking beach build on my island

I love it! I am working on my normcore island because I don’t have online access. It’s been fun

ohhh the entrance is reminding me of my new leaf town and i love it so much!

Yes! I’m so excited for this 🥳🥳

10 beans for Molly. My absolute favourite is Roald. I started playing in May 2020 and he was one of my first two starter villagers. I’ll never let him go! ❤ Very excited about this series. I think my entrance is the same layout for airport and resident services.

I reset yesterday for a normcore island and now I am already working on it, what a coincidence!

I’m sooo excited for this!

It looks so cute I can't wait to see the rest

Marshall is my favourite villager. He's so cute! 🥰

Also, I know the villagers were in the way but I’m jealous your villagers actually use what you’ve done. It was adorable seeing them sitting in the areas you made, Molly drinking tea, Marshall sitting at the table with you. Absolutely adorable and through the roof cuteness.

Youve become one of my comfort channels herenon YT, i am so very looking forward to how Bean goes🎉❤

I really love this island, so sweet❤❤

Been a while since watching acnh content, but my favourite villager is Shari. She was my first ever starter and the first villager I reached besties with. And she was the first to give me her photo.

I knew it would be normcore! And I'm so here for it. 🎉

That stone path is my favourite in game path ! Excited to see this normcore island! :3 I only recently started learning to use custom codes, so it's going to be nice to see how you use the in game paths :D I don't remember my first favourite villager but Skye is my favourite. I see her and my heart just flutters with happiness. Definitely my current comfort villager. Molly is 10/10 beans :3

Not even halfway into the video, but I HAD to comment some ideas. - Tiki/smoothie bar, maybe on the beach on your peninsula. - Park area with playground items, soccer field, etc. - Sitting/rest area with vending machines, benches, and maybe a park clock. - Fishing areas! This could be great on the beach or the rocks. - A bike parking area, probably by the shops! - For the museum, it definitely has to have fossils or maybe some sort of gift shop. - A lookout/stargazing area. - Villager yards of course, I remember everyone had their yards as the same size, closed in with fencing, and a theme to match the villager's personality or house. - Orchard! Also some items I recommend: Streetlamp Public Bench Signpost/Angled Signpost Plain Wooden Shop Sign Drink/Snack Machine Stall Birdbath Tiny Library Phone Box

so excited for the new island!!!! also how lucky that you ended up with marshal

I just discovered your channel and I started with this video for nostalgia and all I remember from my island was just.. Paths 50% Flowers 45 % Mess 3% My broke villager 2%

ahh I can't wait to see how this island turns out! Sydney is my birthday twin, she's so sweet 🥰

I'm so excited to see this series

It's really cute, I do love all the islands you do 😊

Adorable! Looking forward to this series 💖🚀💫✨💖

A colorful playground would be so cute!! 😊🥰💖

Fauna was my first favorite villager

I love this idea 💚

I think you've done an amazing job. Really lovely entrance. I only found you today and subscribed to watch more :)

ahh i love this! normcore really does take me back omg 😂😂

I never thought I would be a fan of norm core but this came out soo well!

My favorite villager is Prince! Such a little cutie,got him from an autofill. But my dreamie is Sucker (I know everyone hates him but for me he is so cute!)

Love this idea, on my first ever acnh island I built a pub

Rosie was my best friend on my first island and Marina was my first villager find and I loved her 🥰

i love the themee you make me ant to finish my island or restart for doing this! this gamae me so a stardew valley vibe

This is awesome! I’m also building a norm core island called Azalea!

I’m already in love with this island. I’m so excited for this island❤. I’m in love with Beau❤

Whenever I first got into animal crossing, I wanted New Horizons but had to make do with pocket camp. Goldie was my favorite from the day we met. I haven't had her on any of my islands but I hope to one day :)

Marshal is so adorable 🥰 the villager I instantly fell in love with was Ketchup. She was the very first villager I saw on a mystery island and I was obsessed! She's been on every single island I've made since 😊 I'm excited for this island. Love islands that take it back to basics ❤

Raddle was my first love in this game. But my true love is Peggy. She makes me so happy

This is so refreshing to watch bcz I never knew how to start and have fun while decorating, but watching your video made me have so much fun and I like watching your videos and decorate ❤❤ please keep up these really amazing videos 🥰

Roald is my first love! I restarted and have been hunting for him for months and got him TODAY! I'm excited to watch this challenge. Normcore is my favorite ❤

You always make me want to change my island!! I wish I could have another switch so I could make other islands because I can’t delete my first one

Omg, you’ve done more in one day than I have in three years 😂😭

Lily the frog!!!! When I was little and playing wild worlds I became so attached to her!!!

Marshal is the best villager!!! 🐿️🐿️🐿️ PS: at the end of the 14 days you should time travel to November to see how the grass and trees fit with the build!

My first ever autofill villager was Peaches and I love her so much ❤❤ Goldie is my all time favorite though, followed super closely by Fauna 😊

SOO COOL😀

for the garbage area maybe try some scattered papers? just a thought. Love this island!

My first favourite villager was definitely Ketchup. I still love her after all this time. 🥰

Something that I really enjoyed doing in the past is putting the museum sorta near the beach, and making the space between the beach and the museum a park with signs referring to things in the exhibits (a butterfly sign near flowers, a fish sign on the beach, a sign about Celeste/astronomy near an area with telescopes). It's a good way to add in an extra park without it JUST being a cutesy pretty park. You can also combine it with a museum cafe/restaurant next to or behind the museum!

Here for this 😊

I’m obsessed with the little dot diagonal path

Molly was my first favorite villager. She is the cutest 💛

I think you should do a volleyball game or something like that maybe on the beach or something like that

In 14 days I get my wheelchair I've been waiting 6 months for. It'll be fun to count down the days with your videos!

🐿🐿🐿 I love sweet little Marshall.
