NOTE: This code is permanent, so you don't have to have the AR DS in. However, it is so big, it will slow down your game while you have it active, so, activate it, save, and turn the Cheat off. You should still have the catalog full when you resume. Name: Full Catalog Controls to Activate: Up+L Code: 94001BF 121d8924 0000ffff 121d8926 0000ffff.
1. Grey knitted pattern
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)It’s time to get cosy. This simple grey knitted pattern from Brusheswithdarkness on Reddit makes all of your customisable furniture that little bit more inviting when you don’t want to leave even your Animal Crossing house. To make your Log Bed this stylish, not to mention snuggly, customise the wood to white birch and accessorise with a Log Bench. When it comes to the rest of the room, keep an eye out for the white Rattan furniture set to keep everything looking bright and natural.

2. Greenhouse
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)You’d think we’d have had enough of plants on our islands, especially given how the grassy areas around flower beds look after a day of rain. And yet, the perfect greenhouse is within reach with these glass panels from @thethinleaf on Twitter. A simple outdoor greenhouse can be built by crafting two stalls and then just positioning them away from each other. All you’ll need next is a couple of simple panels for the back wall. Accessorise with whatever potted plants you have and you could even combo this up with the shelving designs below.

3. Bamboo decking
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)Not only does Reddit creator Camikazee understand the need for a perfect beach bar, they also know that you don’t have many custom design slots going spare. That’s why this bamboo decking is so perfect, requiring only two precious design spaces and still managing to make a big splash on the beach. Combo it up with Bamboo Benches customised away from their traditional green for a perfect island retreat. Just a note, if you’re looking for the Rock-head Statue, you’ll need to wait for Redd to sail villainously into view.
- Creator Code: MA-4720-9893-9687
4. Stained glass
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)Bring some colour into your home and garden with these beautiful stained glass designs from @PrincessSweetsy on Twitter. There are only five pictured here but head to the creator code below for six different designs, including a black and white version apparently requested by all the monochrome lovers out there. As always, these will work best on the much-coveted Simple Panel but there’s always the option to hang them on your wall as a lone design or full multi-panel feature window.
- Creator Code: MA-6303-9484-5134
5. Broken bricks
Animal Crossing Gameshark Codes
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)Sometimes the perfect tiles and bricks of the Island Designer app don’t quite cut it when you’re looking for something a little more rustic. Step in @Skeletontape on Twitter who has saved the day with a collection of mossy old brick patterns for the Animal Crossing houses that need to look a bit more Hill House than Beverley Hills. And these don’t just look good on grass. Layer them over existing stone or brickwork for an extra haunted effect.
- Creator Code: MA-1482-7518-4706
6. Wooden planks
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)The wooden flooring on offer in the Island Designer app is nice but far too much like a dancefloor when you want more adventurous pathways to zip around on. These wooden planks from @kanda_em on Twitter feel like much more fun and even have leaves scattered across the wood for a more natural look. And the designs don’t stop there. Head here to see the collection of worn wooden planks, stone paths and adorable outfits all available on the Creator Code below.

7. Plant shelves
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)Whether you’re building a greenhouse or maybe just want to bring more botanical bits into your house without drowning the place in Monsteras, these adorable leafy shelves from @ahwakwrites on Twitter are a perfect green addition. Once again you’ll want to sell your soul for a Simple Panel in your catalogue to bring the effect to life and there are two variant designs on the Creator Code below. One even has a cluster of adorable succulents.
- Creator Code: MA-7553-4656-2211
8. French doors
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)There are, quite frankly, a disturbing lack of doors in our Animal Crossing houses but Reddit creator Daileyart has fixed that. Grab another Simple Panel, customise with these glass panels and rid yourself of those cursed train tunnel-like portals between rooms. For this particular design you’ll ideally want the Simple Panel with the white outer but that all depends on your luck in Nook’s Cranny and probably the kindness of Animal Crossing strangers. Check out @daileyart on Twitter for even more of the brilliant designs on the Creator Code below.

9. Outdoor Pool
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)Reddit creator MidnightIsleACNH is definitely feeling summery with this beautiful pool design. While other players have used similar tiles inside their houses in combination with the Underwater Flooring for all year round bathing, this is a perfect excuse to make the most of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. Combined perfectly with the lifeguard chairs purchasable with Nook Miles this is a set of blue Spanish tiles from creator Sku and plain white pool tiles from creator Lizard.

10. Colourful Tiling
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)Sometimes brick tiles just aren’t good enough. If you’re looking for some more colourful options to really brighten up your living areas or island streets, @Midio on Twitter has created a small but beautiful selection. Helpfully too, these are designed to take up only one of your precious slots instead of the greedy mass take-over of many more intricate patterns. As payment, Midio only asks that you show him how the design looks on your island which, let’s face it, isn’t exactly a hardship. To Instagram!

11. Recording Studio
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)This is one for all the musicians out there. Clearly not merely content with leaving instruments scattered across her island for her villagers to constantly ignore, Lil_gingerale on Reddit has designed a full recording studio complete with soundproofing for the walls. Now you don’t need to hang onto all those old egg boxes and sticky tape. As well as accessorising with K.K Slider’s greatest hits, Lil_gingerale has also customised Simple Panels with their optional wood pattern to act as a perfect divide between the two sections.
- Creator Code: MA-5592-6173-6018
12. Open Curtains
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)Simple Panels are, quite simply, an inventive Animal Crossing designer’s dream. Birne_Helene on Reddit has crafted the ultimate monochrome living room set up, complete with sliding doors, long curtains and a tantalising peek out at the starry island sky. Worth noting here is that you’ll need to find the right colour of Simple Panels for your design. They’re available in eight different colour options including grey, black, white, and brown which affects the colour of the outer edge. Like all other furniture items you’ll find them in Nook’s Cranny, hiding in balloons and trees, and as gifts from villagers.
- Creator Code: MA-7618-6959-6718
13. Chiso Kimonos
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)If you’re going to accessorise your home with a kimono or two, then they may as well be from a Japanese company specialising in their design since 1555. The world-renowned Kyoto based Chiso has crafted official Animal Crossing versions of two of the company’s 2020 collection, and two exclusive New Horizons-only kimonos. Whether you want to just decorate your rooms with them or bring a touch of Japanese class to your everyday wear, you can download all of the designs from the Creator Code below.
- Creator Code: MA-3850-3955-5752
14. Indoor Water Flooring
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)And you thought you were being fancy with Saharah’s flooring options. Reddit’s dianacquin takes 3D illusions to the next step with this impressive underfloor pool option for even more relaxing dining views. While you’ll only need one custom slot for this particular design, you will need to rotate the flooring to make sure the perspective is correct. This is only possible indoors but once you have placed the design as a tile mat, you can go into the grid option in your home and rotate it like any other piece of furniture.
- Creator Code: MA-5623-98676-1242
15. Modern Wall Art
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)If you want your Animal Crossing house to look as close to an IKEA catalogue as possible, you don’t want to miss this modern wall art from Reddit creator thirtytwoounces. Each individual print is a separate framed option so you can mix and match your favourite colours and options for the ultimate in Scandinavian geometric minimalism. Using the Creator Code below is significantly easier than hunting down all the individual bits of that yellow corner sofa though. Time to start checking in with your friends.

16. Corgi
© Provided by Real Homes (Image credit: Animal Crossing)And finally, if you’re looking to make things a little cosier and the desire for a canine companion hasn’t been sated with Mom’s Plushie, it’s time to bring in the corgis. Reddit’s naattt has designed two different corgi options to customise the fabric of the pet bed to bring a sleeping pooch directly into your living room. You’ll find both adorable snoozing colour options at the Creator Code below. The million Bell crown to feel even more like the Queen is, of course, optional.
