[@alicehui424]

Thanks HGTV for featuring our apartment! What a lovely crew.

[@hildalee6515]

May I know for the large windows, you have already got the Building Department approval before installation ? How do you got the large windows to get into the house ?

[@Ggma8989]

Illusion of space? what the fuck? how about make more money and afford a bigger space? fuck illusions commoners

[@terrybaby6146]

I absolutely love your flat/apartment. It's so compact, yet liveable.

[@Ggma8989]

Terry Baby it’s trash what are you talking about

[@terrybaby6146]

mt89: I gather your opinion differs to mine. That's okay. it's horses for courses. Just as a matter of interest, do you think MacMansions are the acme of home design?

[@KarlaJTanner]

I love seeing people from HK. You never know what international combo you’ll get. My sister in law is mixed heritage of Irish/Chinese Canadian with her Maori husband. Her brother is married to a French woman. It’s so exciting.

[@rc_23]

Seeing the before photos, it looked so creepy and old. The husband really has some good skills :) good job!

[@dransom5821]

I can not even hate off this couple this place looks great after a long day of work simple and easy to clean. LOVE IT!

[@NorlyJoy]

The best creation here is their daughter. She is so beautiful and like a ray of sun! So bright and smiley!

[@mamaknows1062]

Very nice. But for the herb garden open window. Watch the kids. Hopefully you put something there so when they get to climbing and exploring they don't fall out.

[@flower2364]

I thought the exact same thing. I mean how many toddlers have gotten a chair to stand on the lean out...omg it doesn't bear thinking. They were so high up. I can understand the large windows to allow light to flow but didn't get the frames for the views idea...what views? Not for me but the flat made excellent use of the space... it was lovely.

[@lomaluv1590]

Love this place but that open window...I thought the same thing. Perhaps they can put clear barrier.

[@alicehui424]

Thanks for the lovely comment. Don't worry we have child proof locks installed.

[@mrsaye499]

I was more concerned with the bathroom window having no covering.

[@amwayconedita]

you right, and I am sure if there was a low income family living in a apartment they send Family Child Protection.

[@sheilalew5078]

I like the concept of making the windows multi-functional to become framed art. The whole space is bright, simple and very functional. Truly inspiring for small space!

[@dannysze8183]

he was my colleague. Christian is a good architect.

[@jasminealixandranorth]

Love it. Including the green couches and pillows! Beautiful contrast against all the white.

[@lyverbird1973]

I'd be interested to see how they adapt to fit in sleeping for an extra child. I'm sure the skills are there - it's a lovely space!

[@onthecomet2802]

I wonder if they would put an extra bedroom somehow, or if they would put bunk beds in there... Would be an interesting follow up indeed !

[@almahdi990]

This apartment is awesome! Loved it!

[@carlagarrett8584]

would love to see how this has transformed over the past couple years with their child getting older... I am hoping for a swing.

[@minisingh29]

So where is the room for the second baby? Update please.

[@tranlily3001]

The best thing it's have many natural light. Almost have 3 free-wall, the wall not close to neighbour house so it's have big window. It's make the house so ALIVE! You can have the sun, the wind, the light reach to your place. It's well design but this is not small apartment. It's have decent size, just saying.

[@aimeem]

It's big for Hong Kong, but lots of people in other places would consider it very small indeed for a family of 4. Like in the USA average apartment size is around 800-900 sq ft. (And the houses are huge.)

[@songsenkei]

This is located in which part of Hong Kong? Kowloon?

[@irischan1923]

A nice place and design. The window is overlapped when open. How to clean it?

[@618B]

I love the yellow-green jeans. So chic.

[@RCBGMK]

lovely flat for a lovely family. Enjoy it and tnx for ideas.

[@fahrizanmefibahidayat7819]

Such a great design. But is it safe to put a murphy bed on the only space where your child plays ?

[@GotYourWallet]

2:04 Those windows are amazing.

[@polarisstar4719]

just wondering, only one bathroom? and its in their masterbedroom?

[@saammmy7]

why would you need more than one bathroom? But you're right it should be accessible from one of the other rooms. You don't want your kids to disturb your sleep/sex every time they have to pee.

[@lsamoa]

Better have excellent digestion if you have your toilet that close to your bedroom

[@angelorange1844]

That's what you called, professional work.

[@amwayconedita]

Beautiful couple and beautiful home!

[@clementlee2121]

Did I only see 1 bathroom? Does that mean guests would have to walk through the masters suite to use it?

[@DarrylBass]

Clement Lee no, because you won't ever have guests.

[@DarrylBass]

This space works because they have toddlers. They won't be able to stay in this place for longer than 2-3 years.

[@numbereightyseven]

It's a 450 square foot 2-bedroom apartment, and THAT'S your comment?

[@beetledune9264]

I know what u trying to point out..apparently maybe the answer is yes.

[@saammmy7]

Well, more than 1 bathroom wouldn't be practical in a space that small. What would bother me about the bathroom as a guest is the glass wall. And then they put the curtain on the outside of the room, seriously?

[@CAJayPop]

Lovely space. Can you tell us more about the sofa and its source?

[@namelmao4231]

This lookd like a haunted house that got a full exorcism and renovated

[@selinaliu6263]

wow wow wow! only 450 sq ft and you can do so well with it! lovely home for lovely family, congratulations!!

[@casekocsk]

In vehicles like RV or trailer, having "integrated" fridge is understandable since it's the standard and space is premium. But in a house, will it becomes a problem later when the fridge getting old, because sometimes they leak? And what if you need to repair the fridge? Also how about the ventilation space?

[@andraREBECA]

The best small apartment i ve seen here in KZbin!!!!! Lovely!

[@andjela6351]

Very small space for big family like them. This is a great space for the couple who temporarily want to live in this apartment.

[@uqonsoul]

The amount of windows is a..... Bless!

[@noviceprepper5397]

lovely family. four hundred fifty feet in Hong Kong, they probably bought it as they were free to renovate it but if they were renting, it'd probably cost $5,000 per month. I like it.

[@carinaadams6797]

noviceprepper53 $5,000? Seriously?

[@caremell]

The question is when are we going to see a solid simple Murphy bed in ikea ? That simple white with bookshelve Murphy bed is sth i would like to buy.

[@FahrulFahrul]

Nice video

[@snehilkumar6192]

Is this glass unbreakable? Can anyone tell

[@semones57]

I think the space is beautiful. Good job.

[@starstruck522]

awesome apartment

[@fabianevich]

It ain't that small, but what he did with the apartment is terrific! I loved the lots of light and the window panes. And the living area and the kitchen. The bedroom looked a bit dull, though but nevertheless this is by far the proyect I liked most of all I've seen so far!

[@meetavyas4103]

Very cozy cute clean home Loving couple May God bless you with twins baby boys Love from India

[@emergenthappiness5949]

Very subtle but I can't help but notice the host asked the wife if she is happy with her kitchen after she said that they plant the herbs because the husband is a great cook and herbs are expensive in HK. She then had to say again that she is happy with the kitchen even though she does not use it a lot and the husband is the cook. :(

[@monkcers]

Beautiful house, but won't the upcoming baby render the house not so suitable?

[@miajuwitakaningtyas3394]

[@brad93322]

fantastico awasome use of space by the designers

[@unrulycrow6299]

I have trouble understanding some of the comments about the space or the windows. The point of the video is to show how one can optimize small spaces through an example, and why not teach your children to not play with/arounds the windows because it's dangerous? Kids aren't stupid, if rules are properly explained to them, they'll understand. No need to whine about an issue that can be settled lol

[@kouros8792]

Its not small its huge at 450 sq ft!!! Its not a typical apt in hk. The transformation of this apt is very creative and functionable too..👌

But it's awkward that the only bathroom in the house is in the parents' bedroom. What if the daughter needs to pee in the middle of the night and the parents are... uh.. busy.

[@Bobrogers99]

Also, the glass bathroom wall might make shy guests a bit nervous. This apartment wouldn't work for everybody, but it fits this family just fine.

[@truptisawant2381]

Flat looks good but is not child friendly because of those windows and folding bed.

[@thepizzaqveen]

The windows probably have a lock

[@Bobrogers99]

The windows might not follow US building codes because of the child safety issue.

[@morganmore6]

If they keep it closed when she is alone near the window

[@Bobrogers99]

"I looked the other way for just a minute..." and a curious child suffers a tragic fall. The windows should either be permanently closed or there should be a fixed grill in place. Building codes in Hong Kong may be more permissive, but it's not a safe situation.

[@Autism_Forever]

Space is both good and bad. I would never put toilet next to my bed. Kid can fall out of the window. There is no bath, only shower. That Murphy bed can fold down and flatten the kid while she is playing underneath it. When the kid grows, she will have to bother the parents by walking thru their bedroom, possibly while they are having sex. Good use of light but too many dangerous and inconvenient things. I have lived in a smaller space. We did not have toilet next to bed and we did have a bathtub. Not a very good planning.
