I'm pretty much a completionist and i love the idea of having the absolute best endgame layout of a farm for it to be efficient and good looking, but im not great at designing such stuff.
Could anyone give me some inspiration for that matter ? My goal is to have the best possible layout for a farm in Meadowlands as it is my favorite, in an endgame, 100% completed save file.
Aprecciate the help!

Here, please! Those are my earlier 1.6 saves. The most complete is the one with the player named "Apostle", but in my most recent save, i will have few alterations. The one with player named "Cane", has a better polish to the left area, especially for animal buildings and solar panels placement.

With my latest save, i will have slight modifications in space, to allow up to 36 fish ponds... First, one tree orchard to the southwest, gets 1x tile more west overall and two fish ponds get added between it and the next one, to the right. I will axe Grandpa Shrine orchard, putting 1x fish pond there and only 1x each exotic tree, right next to it (mushroom, fern, mahogany). I will change the lightningrod formation south of the barns, 1x tile more west and fit a 7th fish pond there, to the left of the six ones. I am also changing the deep sea fish ponds, for a total of x9 in the small area there, post pushing the shed north a bit, next to the bush.

But check them out and see for yourself! You can easily think of slight modifications for yourself, in order to suit your needs better!

It's incredibly subjective, I would personally recommend trying to design something yourself but take inspiration from the vast wealth of farm designs and layouts online, even here the forums has a whole area for farm and map designs, many of which may fit your criteria perfectly.

Otherwise, the primary stardew discord has a lot of designs and amazing farm planners, and other places like pinterest are great too.

If you want to start planning without the time cost in game, try using an online planner. There are a bunch that have their own pros and cons, my personal favourites are these:
Stardew planner V3, has probably the widest variety of deco items but is kind of slow and not the nicest for navigation and use - https://stardew.info
Stardew planner.com, decent mix in variety, has more 1.6 stuff which is obviously useful - https://stardewplanner.com
Stardew designer, best for quick placing, especially when making big plans with buildings, it's the fastest to use by far and has the most versatile tools for quick placement - https://stardewdesigner.com/editor/
