Cubic mentality: 4-story Paris flat fits comfort in 25 sq mt

[@signaturethapa6855]

+Tim Jakub The trick in this design is the use of kitchen on the landing space between the bedroom and living space which is used both as a function (as a kitchen) as well as circulation (movement space between bedroom and living space). I think exposed sharp edges; as in this case on lower part of the stairs, is not a very smart idea particularly in congested space. He could have used mirrors to give depth which create an illusion of larger space as well as lightens up the space. It would be amazing if he had manages to swap the place between bathroom and kitchen.

[@adda7256]

+Tim Jakub *La chambre à coucher à la place des WC????*

[@scarbo7234]

Oui, j'ai trouvé ca un peu ridicule aussi. L'architect a décidé de suivre sa vision, mais je crois que ce serais bien plus logique de positionner la chambre a coucher a l'étage. (désolé pour les fautes, clavier anglophone)

Otherwise a perfect tiny apartment

[@shelleynobleart]

Loved the space and admire it so much but yes, there's got to be a fire egress from the bed. Has to be more than one way out in case of it being blocked by fire.

[@cloverhighfive]

That's brilliant. Now, I would be interested in the space. The whole video I was thinking, this architect clearly never had a period in his life, nor has he ever been sick. I've seen this often in layered spaces.

[@obnoxiouscommenter6194]

I was thinking the same too. I was worried in the event of a fire in the kitchen people in the bedroom would get trapped. However it may go against the designer's vision of letting as much natural light possible into the apartment with the shower taking the kitchenette's spot. Although it's possible to just shift the bathroom to the right of the stairs, exposing only the top of the shower

this is genuinely one of the most well thought through designs i’ve seen, especially for a tiny house. you don’t need to sacrifice anything of normal size, like you still get a big shower and a full bathroom, still get a bright living room and kitchen with workable space. sure it’s a bit smaller than most would like, but it’s so well thought through that one could be adjusted very quickly. amazing

i noticed that in the italian episode as well, i guess it' a compromise you have to make when you don't know the language too well and want to keep the subtitles readable and flowing.

Yeah true, probably why he spoke French to begin with was to express complexity (since he could speak English / keeps code switching) and it's diluted in translation.

[@signaturethapa6855]

He basically divided the 17 feet height into two levels and used the landings for the kitchen and bathroom. He smartly used the landing space between bedroom and living space as kitchen because it provides the circulation space as well. It would have been very efficient if he had managed to swap the place between kitchen and bathroom; an open kitchen overlooking the living space and a easily accessible bathroom from both bedroom and living space. It would have been visually appealing as well. So basically the trick in this design is the use of Kitchen as both a function as a kitchen as well as a circulation space between bedroom room and living space.

[@Kknderbueno]

+Signature Thapa The only problem is that if you switched the bathroom and kitchen, if somebody needed to use the bathroom, you couldn't get to the bedroom, or you'd be stuck in there.

Nyasha Hopkins That's part of the Universal Standards of Professional Appraisal Practices that appraisers or government assessors use. In order to be counted in an appraisal or for the government tax records, those things must apply for bedroom count. And it has to be off of main living areas (can't be off of another bedroom, or you shouldn't have to walk through a bathroom to get to it). But, the most important thing is that it has a window that an average sized human can escape from and drop no more than one story during a fire. If it's more than one story, they must have a fire escape, another roof below, etc. In this case, those technicalities weren't even my first thought. This isn't legal in the sense of building and fire code. It is literally a box with no exit except down into a kitchen, which has the most risk of fires. The kitchen also doesn't have any outside windows either, only a cutout and stairs to the main living area. I'd be terrified sleeping there!

+Eaglette and how many victim of fires in france's notoriously dangerous apartements? oh yeah.

[@NotTooTechnicalPlease]

From my understanding and I could be wrong fires spread upwards. Or maybe that's just the smoke that rises. Well I am not sure but from what I know if there's a fire in the upper floor the people on the bottom floors would be safe unless the fire destroys the structure of the building. Still this isn't something I'd like to test out

It's one thing to put it down on paper, but to actually build it is truly an amazing talent.

[@TVegaC]

very well made, impresive architect skills. I would have develop the living room better, to make it a living-dinning-studio or adapt to its uses. Still an amazing design work!

I actually love this tour, I come back every few months to rewatch it

13:55: the layer is 16cm thick, not 6. Instead of 18 cm (not 28).

I love the creative use of space, however I feel it may be too claustrophobic to live in long term.

[@bettyboop3192]

This architect is a genius. A true master at his craft.

It's all fun and games until your knees start hurting due to age...

This is the type of apartment where you fix the appliances instead of throwing away and replacing when they break. Everything is so custom. What a fascinating mind that was able to envision this space!

[@BobbyTheDogUSA]

Beautiful space! Did they buy more microwave ovens just in case the first one died?

[@Fandango541]

Really enjoyed watching this charming man hustle up and down those steps. He's a design genius and cute little dude to boot. Only drawback for me: having been diagnosed with severe claustrophobia I could never sleep in that bedroom. I would not be able to breathe. That's nothing against his design but a true reality for those who have this phobia. Gives me shudders just thinking about it.

[@Fati-ly6tl]

You should put a mirror at the back of the kitchen to reflect the light and create the illusion of an open space

[@mitchvaldez7878]

Fatimah my thoughts exactly

[@jorgearenas872]

I thought exactly the same... cheers!!!!

[@Dei_Chi]

Thought the same thing. More mirrors would maximize the light.

[@birtalanlorant5572]

deiz and reflect what's in the bedroom🤣

[@Dei_Chi]

@@birtalanlorant5572 The mirror will be in of the window. Reflecting more light inside the kitchen. The bedroom is below the kitchen.

That is truly amazing. Well done you are an artist with minimal space. Thank you for sharing. X
