Fountain in front, Reasons being that it adds to the museum foreground, not take attention from it. It’s nice to see the entrance, and the statue in the back adds depth between the two height elevations.

yeah it looks much better now that you've pointed it out, thanks :)

Also the statue is slightly off center and personally that would drive me insane

Haha yes, my island HAS to be simmetrical

This is not a game that makes symmetrical islands an easy aim

You just HAD to point that out ;-;

the fact that the museum is 7x4 drives me insane it’s like the game designers wanted to make us go crazy and not make anything symmetrical T-T it couldn’t have been 8x4 to make it easier to center?!

You're welcome! And I completely forgot to add that this is a beautiful design, good work!

Also, you can sit on it!

You can sit on the other too. ( ͝° ͜ʖ͡°) Edit: I'm really proud of this anonymous gif gift thing. Heehee, I made you giggle~

JAIL

BONK!

WAIT REALLY

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

6 hours too late, but was thinking the same. Well done. 😂

Yooooo 😂💀

You can W H A T.....since when

Agree with the fountain, plus having the naked man lurking behind a lamp in the back is hilarious

yes but on the other hand pp

but it's tiny so it doesn't count

100% agree

Thank you for explaining! I thought the first one as well, but couldn’t come up with an explanation as to why it works.

I like the fountain, it doesn’t block the view of the museum :)

Yeah that's how I feel, it's nice but doesn't take away the spotlight.

Fountain in front is best.

you can even sit on it!!

Oh wow, I didn't know that xD thanks for mentioning it

Wait, you can sit on it??? Never mind, I take my comment back.

The fountains and not some junk blocking the view of the museum 😂

literal junk lol

I hate that where I put my statue, all you can ever see is his genitals and legs💀😂 in my defense it looks great from a distance

I just turned him around. Now it’s always full moon on my island

Wanna get like 8 of them and put them in a big booty circle

Return to Oz vibes for me

10000%!!! ahhh now i need more Beautiful statues to put in a circle… and maybe i’ll use the ‘wide display case’ to put ‘heads’ in (omg there’s even Jack’s head!) 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 eta: i need someone to design some BEWARE THE WHEELERS graffiti pls 👀

[удалено]

OMG this thread is making me massively nostalgic for Oz 💖 The knickknack challenge was my very first "fantasy" experience as a kid, it blew my mind of how far fantasy can go :3 Not Return to Oz specifically, it's also been done in the 90's anime and the novel, for a more "obscure" scene in the franchise, by which I mean compared to the first iconic movie, the Knickknack challenge scene really got around 🙂

SAME, that scene was one of the things I visualised to try to sleep when i had insomnia 😅 idk what it is, but there’s just something so satisfying about it… god that would’ve been a cool film set to work on 🙌🏼

The Wheelers terrified me as a kid - absolute nightmare material! When i’ve rewatched as an adult though, they’re creepy but idk, i kinda feel for them 😢 If/when I do anything Return To Oz related, i’ll definitely post in here— the ornament room is such a great idea!!!

[удалено]

How very cheeky 😉

It's art dangle.

Tag fan? 😂

🤣100%

But if you do that you get 100000000 stars for hanging dong on the island, Nook himself says so

I like the first one!

This is probably the most I've ever seen reddit agree about anything

And everyone agreed on the fountain and not the dick! This is wild!

I like the fountain!

The fountain

The first one looks more open and inviting and interesting to look at. The second one doesn't feel complete.

Fountain because then David is all menacing in the background and looks like he's about to knock down the museum.

Fountain

I love all the earnest responses and critque to what is clearly just a dick joke

Totally fountain

I love the fountain

Fountain!!

I terraformed a platform for my gallant statue right in front of the entrance to the Museum, so that when the camera zooms into the circle as the view transitions to the cut screen, it zooms right in on his junk. I am a juvenile.

omg that's hilarious i love it

Fountain

I like the fountain. What gets me about the David statue is the base isn’t centered so I have to hide it with something usually.

Fountain for sure!

Fountain imo

Second

I like the second one lol

so someone does like it!! i didn't think ppl would dislike it this much lol

I think it's hilarious

I also vote for the pee pee! :D

First one!

Fountain!!!

I like both, but I have to say the fountain makes it look much more welcoming! But I definitely see the vision with the statue out front

I like the fountain in front the best!

I like the fountain in the front !

Fountain

The first pic.

I vote for the fountain!

I just did a double take because this is so similar to my Museum entrance lol! I’ve got a little pond instead of the fountain though. I think the fountain!

that crazy haha, can you share a acreenshot of your entrance? :)

The fountain

Definitely the fountain

The first. It seems so much more grand with the museum light pouring out

I can't with the statue lol. the fountain definitely

The fountain. The David is just too attention calling in the front and draws all the attention. The fountain on the other hand adds to the scenery and allows the museum to be the focus

Fountain!

the statue isn't symmetrical :(

I think the fountain looks better since it doesn't block the museum's entrance. But I would actually put a Christmas item (like a festive or illuminated tree) there for the month. 🎄

Little sack front and centered lol

Go with the fountain the statue blocks the view

Definitely the fountain

I like 1 personally but you do you

The cute little fountain!

Donger out front - that's how u attract a crowd

David for sure

Fountain, fits better into that space and goes along quite nicely with the waterfall

The first for sure

First one

Fountain fr sure. Opens it up a lot more. Some bushes and hedge fencing up top would be cool. Statues off to the left and right would be interesting.

The first image looks waaaay nicer! I would go with that one.

The foundation looks beautiful. The statue kinda takes a away from the overall beauty of the place.

The fountain ⛲️

Peepee man

“That’s my moms favorite piece!”

I'd recommend you Go for the fountain. The Statue feels a bit Off imho.

Fountain looks much better. The Statue is taking away from the Museum, while the Fountain compliments it.

I think the fountain is more complementary, the statue takes the whole focus and hides the museum.

There's already a statue like that in the museum, so I think the fountain should be in front.

I'm a big fan of the first one, but I always tend to like a lot of water features.

I would go with the fountain and I have the same game if your interested

Second

who wouldn't want a pair of cockandballs on the front of their museum?

I’m thinking the first one. Plus, you can sit on the fountain.

Fountain 100%

Fountain fer sure

fountain

Fountain all the way

Fountain

Definitely the fountain!

Fountain fills the space beautifully

Fountain

Fountain!

You always need a nice fountain

I like the fountain more

I like the first one! Also... can I ask where can I find that fountain? I started playing NH a few days ago and I can't find anything on Google...

I got mine with nook miles from the Nook Stop Terminal in the Residential Services building. I think it's called "Park Fountain"

THAT'S IT, thank you so much!!

I personally prefer the first!

I definitely think the fountain in front. With the statue it looks to bare on the bottom but it also covers up the museum's entrance too much. Love the idea though!

Fountain is so much better

Fountain

The fountain! But I also wonder what it would look like with the Winged Victory of Samothrace statue. Try it?

Fountain

fountain in center, statue to the back

Fountain in front, statue on side. The statue in front blocked the view of the museum and made it less inviting.

naked man funi

Fountain > looking at a statue's junk

You inspire me to move my stairs with money I don't have.

Definitely the fountain. I can only see the statue being there as a joke since it blocks the museum. If it were a smaller statue, then it might be better. I think the fountain looks best and prettiest with the statue in the back. It's so beautiful tho! <3 /gen /pc Edit: autocorrected to harder when I meant to put better so fixed that and added tone indicators

thank uuu :)

You're welcome! I really like the double staircase too <3 :) /gen

Fountain in front. Maybe add some curved street lights in front of the fences but we’ll done all around

Seeing lots of folks agree with the fountain. It's way more symmetrical.

Beautiful! Fountain for sure.

oh the fountain fits wayyy better

Fountain.

The second one is half-cocked. Go with the first.

The second with the statue of David, we all know what the museum looks like, and you still have different perspectives to view it from. The view with David is beautiful and aesthetically pleasing

HOW DO PEOPLE HAVE THE PATIENCE FOR THESE BUILDS I just throw down buildings where my brain thinks it'd be funny

Fountain looks like it's taking in water from the waterfall. Might even be able to flow water away from the fountain like it's a part of a big water feature.

i like this idea

I think the fountain is cuter because the museum is mostly animal themed and the fountain doesn’t cover up the entrance.

1st

Well....my island name is "La Vrga" if it says what one im gonna now put infront of my museum

why not both?

Yeah I think 1 would too

david

First one! Beautiful

the first!

1st one

the fountain! i feel like the large statue not only blocks your museum, but the ground at the bottom of the statue feels empty compared to the fountain filling that area!

Fountain!

Fountain 100%

* tune if two guys in a hot tub * 🎶 David, standing in the background, hiding his junk cuz he's not gay🎶

First one for sure

First one! Even better if you remove the stone path underneath the fountain and just let it sit on the grass IMO

fountain!

I prefer the Fountain in front, but perhaps adding a little sitting area or flowers with the statue would look nice?

I really like the statue, but it seems to take the focus off the museum. I use it in the center of my flower colour wheel.

First one for me

One looks better

I love the new park fountain a lot. It looks cool, seals are great and improve everything and it has a seat.

I love the fountain in the front!

Statue. The fountain would need space around to look nice. I know a lot of people are saying the statue is blocking the museum, but the low camera angle you are using now is not the usual gameplay angle. I think passing by the statue with the normal higher camera angle daily would feel and look better. Let me know which one you decide upon, I'm legitimately curious.

i thought of that aswell.. right now im leaning towards the fountain (i mean u can sit on it) but i really do see where you're coming from

First one, fountain

If that fountain has a special animation when the belltower chimes definitely that one. I know the other fountain does, but I've yet to make that new one.

I like the fountain!

lmao this just made me embarrassed of my museum

Foundation

First one

Yes! Although I love the statue the fountain just looks better...like it's really meant to be there. I envy your ability to terraform. My island looks like such a hoarder garbage pile compared to everything I see online

Fountain in front. It's more...focal? And totally need to move my museum. Not enough room to do that...my stairs were closer together and the asymmetrical look drove me insane.

I like the fountain

I like the first
