Villagers whose houses aren't just their house, but more like a small business

[Misha]

Some villagers have normal homely houses, but some have things like a cafe, a school or even a laundromat! I think that's so cute, they give a villager a new layer of backstory. What are your favourites?

I also wonder if people are deliberately using their "houses" on their islands to serve as more than a house. If people for example make signs, or for example make an outdoor area to accompany the cafe, or a playground near the school? Please show me if you're doing something like that, I'd love to see people actually incorporating those in the design of their islands.

I forget who had the cafe (I think a few villagers have a cafe?) but here's Leopold with his classroom/school house and Eunice in her laundromat. Both pictures come from nookipedia.com

I love both of those villagers, so I want them in my town anyway, but the fact that they come with such interesting houses makes them even more interesting to me c:

That's a cool way of looking at it. Pashmina has a diner theme:

Are these really the way they look when you get them? Or did you have to slowly feed them pieces to make their houses like this?

Vesta has a cute little dry cleaning service, might look cute next to Eunice’s coin laundry!

Caroline is like a cartoonist now? i don't like it but she fits with this kind of?

Raddle's house is supposed to be a doctor's office, which is very topical considering the pandemic.

Also Cleo's house is supposed to be a dermatologist's office

I won't post images for them, but Raymond (obviously) and Eugene also have office-themed houses. Villagers with cafe-inspired houses include Marshal, Merengue, Sandy, and probably more.

OMG Cleo looks so adorkable in those glasses.

Tiffany's house is an arcade and Mira's house is a theatre.

audie’s house reminds me of a tropical resort/tropical bar or restaurant of sorts ;u;

My man Dobie works from home!

Eugene’s place is a detective’s office. Rasher has a sort of car repair place. Gala’s is a bank. Tiffany’s home looks like a bar. Bones has a library as a home.

Oh butch has a race car track going on and texs is the ultimate band/ party room

Tia’s house definitely reminds me of a small tea or coffee shop, which is fitting given her name and design! (Not my interior photo, I found it on Tumblr).

Hopkins has an arcade, from what I've seen on Nookipedia:

Image NOT mine, I got it off Nookipedia- I've been considering adding him but haven't done it yet ​

In NL, Ursala had a florist shop- I was a little bummed to see she no longer does! BUT her actual house in this game is still lovely, and the exterior is fab, and I love her, so I forgive her ☺

Oh, and Cleo appears to be running some sort of internet start-up:

Image from Nookipedia again- I had her for awhile but didn't get a good house pic uploaded.

It seems kind of odd for her... but, I mean, you have to admire her. She's smart, fashionable, sophisticated, AND successful. She's a self-made woman (horse)!

I always feel bad for those villagers who live in an "unconventional" house with no bed! I remember when I designed villager houses in Happy Home Designer, even if they asked for a restaurant I would always give them a bed to sleep on. It just makes me sad for villager like Dobie who have cool houses but no place to rest their head at night

I even tried to give Chester a bed multiple times but he never put it out!

Sterling is a jail

Tiffany's house is an arcade and Mira's house is a theatre.

Oh, I really want Tiffany in my town, so this is really cool to see! And Mira's is great too.

Vesta has a cute little dry cleaning service, might look cute next to Eunice’s coin laundry!

(picture from nookipedia again)

Wow, you're right! Dry cleaning or even a seamstress I'd say. That would be very cute to have them living next to each other, and be friends.
