300 Sq ft apartment | Basement/In-law Suite | Design on a budget

[@widowswatch6610]

Video did not show the whole area of the 300 sq. Foot apartment... It just showed bits and pieces of apartment... It was hard to get the feeling of the floor plan... other than that it was okay thanks

[@iamloved]

Thanks for the feedback. I'm still learning about shooting video footage.

[@ramonaneyrinck2292]

❤ I’m going to be moving into a 400 square-foot studio. So I’m just getting some and inspiration. Thank you

[@iamloved]

Ooo sounds fun! Thanks for watching!

[@leslieelena7175]

Love the series. I’m in the process of building 2 ADUs 550 sq ft and your ideas are amazing thank you

[@iamloved]

Oh I'm so glad! Have fun!

[@klarmour98]

How did you make out with your ADU's? We are doing one in August, our first time.

[@brendaberketo3575]

Great video! Love the energy! I'm about to move into a space of 330 sq-ft and trying to get ideas. Thanks!!

[@iamloved]

Thank you! 😊

[@SamuelsReview]

I wish you'd showed the space and did a voiceover. It would have been so much better.

[@iamloved]

Thanks for the idea! I love that!

Nicely done.... You're very creative.

[@iamloved]

Love Love Love 😍

[@iamloved]

Thank you so much! You're always so encouraging.

[@cindyferenczhammond7144]

Clever!!!

[@iamloved]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@carlagarrett8584]

IT LOOKS great. Is there any legal rules to having an apartment without proper windows or fire space?

[@iamloved]

Thank you! Yes, there are rules for egress and fire codes for rental apartments. We were simply updating the existing basement for the family to use.

[@teresahamn6404]

I am starting the process of downsizing to a basement apartment.

[@iamloved]

Have fun! There are lots of creative ways to utilize smaller spaces.

[@blackpanter9572]

I see more of her then I do of the actual apartment. She's cute and all but I'd rather see a walk through of the space from different angles.

[@iamloved]

Thanks for the feedback. This was one of my first time filming a design video. I still have a lot to learn!

[@rachelelo4556]

I love it! I’m the most glad you took on this project 😉

[@iamloved]

Awww you're so sweet. I'm so glad you love it!

[@BodaciousWench]

I was hoping you’d show a floor plan

[@iamloved]

What a great idea. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@Spy-nm9qq]

Awesome!!!

[@iamloved]

Thanks!!

[@mohammedkhan6612]

Hi I need some serious help I have a small basement flat And am struggling to organise Where I can put everything

[@iamloved]

It can be challenging for sure. You could consider searching for professional organizers in your area for some storage tips and tricks.

[@vickiemitchell8107]

I live on Social Security. I share a condo with my 21 yr old daughter and her husband and granddaughter. They complain about me being in the living room and kitchen yet they use my furniture and all my kitchen thing and they eat my food up with in days. I need to turn my bedroom bathroom and walk-in closet into with a very small apartment or mother in law suit. I think I can turn one side of my closet into a dry kitchen. But getting the bedroom so I can have a living room is baffling. Please any ideas you may have would be such a blessing.

[@iamloved]

Oh I'm sorry you're feeling cramped. It can be a real struggle. Would you consider a twin size bed to double as a sofa (like in this video)? Or a sofa bed that can pull out to be your bed in the evening? We recently put a pull out loveseat in a small mother-in-law suite that is the size of a double bed. Then we added a wall of cabinets and counters from IKEA along with some electric burners for a "stove", a fridge and microwave. The sink in the bathroom is what she uses for her kitchen sink. Not ideal, but it really works well for her, especially if you select a bar sink faucet instead of a bathroom faucet. I hope this helps!

[@MsCcarter21]

I love these ideas. Do you share the cost of doing this? I’m new to your channel but thinking of renting out the finished basement after adding a small kitchen

[@iamloved]

@@MsCcarter21 Hey there! Thanks for watching. I didn't share the cost of this project as the homeowner wanted to keep it under wraps. This I can tell you... it was under $5,000 as plumbing and electrical were already in place as it had been an apartment previously.

[@mfs8311]

How difficult was the zoning approval process for this?

[@iamloved]

There was already a basement apartment in the space, so zoning wasn't required to update it.

[@iamloved]

It depends on where you live. No zoning was needed for this project as it was previously an apartment.

[@jasmines.6325]

Where is the dish drying rack? It doesnt seem functional...

[@iamloved]

She stores it under the sink and pulls it out when needed. Very functional.

[@Splash-nr8ot]

Ingeniously designed, but too tiny for me, plus no natural light.

[@iamloved]

Ya the natural light part would be super challenging for me as well.

[@donniemoder1466]

Sorry, ceiling too low in the kitchen. Are you kidding me? Iamnotinlovewithit.

[@iamloved]

It is quite low. The homeowners worked worked with the basement space as it was. Digging out the foundation to give more ceiling height would have cost far too much money.

[@ufoturtle08]

Worst camera angles i have seen. As a viewer i find it hard to get a sense of how the space is used. You could have zoomed out more often.

[@iamloved]

Thanks for the feedback. This was one of the first projects I ever filmed. The camera angles, lighting, audio, etc. could all use some improvement.

[@ufoturtle08]

@@iamloved i am sorry i use a condescending tone. That wasn’t nice.

[@jasons7854]

So this is a DOG HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!

[@iamloved]

I don’t get it

[@OurTribeofMany]

Gorgeous!!!

[@iamloved]

Thank you Sarah! (Not exactly a space for 12!)
