Contents How to start Happy Home Paradise &#8211; Designing the best houses and rooms &#8211; Interior design tips for Happy Home Paradise &#8211; How to invite villagers to Happy Home Paradise &#8211; How to start Happy Home Paradise in Animal Crossing: New Horizons Getting started with Happy Home Paradise in Animal Crossing: New Horizons is incredibly easy, as it mostly starts without you needing to lift a finger: After loading up the game with the DLC installed, your NookPhone will ring \u2013 it\u2019ll be Tom Nook. &#8211; Once speaking to him, you\u2019ll automatically end up at Dodo Airlines, where you\u2019ll be greeted by both Tom Nook and Lottie. &#8211; You\u2019ll have a brief chat and be introduced to Lottie, and she\u2019ll then head off to Paradise Planning through the airport gates. &#8211; After this cutscene, you\u2019ll need to talk to Orville, and select \u2018I want to go to work.\u2018 &#8211; That\u2019s it! You\u2019ll now take to the skies before landing at Paradise Planning. &#8211; Designing the best Happy Home Paradise rooms and houses in Animal Crossing: New Horizons Once you\u2019ve arrived on the island and have been introduced to Niko and Wardell, you\u2019ll have the opportunity to challenge your interior design skills and design the best vacation house for your first client \u2013 Eloise. Tasked with sticking to her theme of \u2018My Relaxing Reading Room\u2018, you\u2019ll need to pull out all the stops to create something truly memorable. Each client will have varying themes you need to adhere to, along with a select few items that must be included in the overall design. Here\u2019s how to get started: Interior design tips for Happy Home Paradise Unbox the red boxes located on the floor of the house \u2013 these are the items your room design must include. &#8211; Press down on the D-pad to change the camera view, and then right on the D-pad to open up the interior design UI. &#8211; When designing a room, make sure to heavily utilize items listed under the \u2018Order\u2018 tab. &#8211; There are plenty of other tabs to use, too, but these should be your first port of call. &#8211; While the items listed under the \u2018Order\u2018 tab are most likely to be loved by your client, this is not always guaranteed. To check whether or not they love a particular item, place it down by them near the front door. They\u2019ll smile if they like it, but if something\u2019s really up their alley, they\u2019ll nod, clap or have a heart or an exclamation point appear above their head. Make sure to use this before deciding what to go with in your design to get the perfect idea of what it is that they love. As you progress through your Paradise Planning career, you\u2019ll also be able to take your designs even further by unlocking even more ways to impress your clients, such as accent walls, changing room sizes, creating counters, partition walls, polishing furniture, and even the option to hang lights from the ceiling and add a soundscape to the room. It\u2019s also worth noting that, with each client that you take on, the available furniture you have to use in decorating will grow \u2013 so pick clients that lean towards your own particular tastes or a specific villager you have in mind. Make sure to apply these methods to the outside of a home, too, as some clients, like Stu, for example, really wants trees in their vacation escape \u2013 and lots of them. How to invite Villagers to Happy Home Paradise in Animal Crossing: New Horizons If you want to give the likes of Beau, Midge, or Merengue their home away from home on your own island, it\u2019s as easy as pie\u2026 er, chocolate. After completing your first client, Eloise\u2019s, design, you\u2019ll be rewarded with Poki \u2013 the island\u2019s own currency. &#8211; Inside the Paradise Planning building, head to the bottom left of the ground floor and you\u2019ll see a collection of souvenir chocolates. &#8211; Purchase a few boxes with the Poki you made earlier. &#8211; Return home to your island and strike up a conversation with the villager you want to create a vacation home for. &#8211; Gift one of the chocolates to them, and they\u2019ll ask to visit Paradise Planning. Select \u2018I\u2019ll take you\u2018. &#8211; From here, you\u2019ll both be whisked away to Happy Home Paradise\u2019s island, where you can speak to Lottie in the office to start work and then head back outside to talk to your villager. From there, the process is exactly the same as any other client.
