House Tours: A Designer's $1,800 One Bedroom in Brooklyn, New York

[@heidibee501]

This young woman strongly embodies the notion that an incredible artistic talent and an incomparable skill for organizing can coexist successfully in one person. I loved this tour from one end to the other.

[@vanessaeileen7963]

Totally agree

[@westerling8436]

Ok, simp

[@z.alvarez1315]

Wonderful design & organization!

[@SCMiller-bo5zb]

This has the potential of being a disaster. Not just anone could pull it off. Your talent at a professional level is what made it so successful and your move to being a muralist is proves it. Congrats on the apt and your career path! Looks like a very natural one! Wishing you much continued success!

[@angel8princess5]

I love the fact that she’s not swayed by other’s opinions and does what is best for her and it’s not the trendy aesthetic. I really enjoyed touring her apartment and her personality ❤

[@twistoffate4791]

Great comment.

[@hadeev]

I love it when people aren’t afraid of color, and think outside the box. I live in an apartment where I’m not allowed to paint the walls. As an artist, I feel creatively constricted, so I paint lots of pictures that cover all the walls with color. Someday, I’ll own a home again, and cover the walls with murals, like Maggie did. 😊

[@maggieantalek]

I love this ❤❤❤

[@salvease]

How wonderful that you didn't allow the building rules to stop you. I'm in the same situation in LA. Both the building management AND my husband. I'm only half-way kidding about my husband.😄 One can be creative within boundaries wherever they are. Kudos to you. Let your creativity flow!

[@janinafisher101]

I think it's just ridiculous that landlords won't let you paint the walls. This is your home, you should be able to paint. If they want to they can require you to return it to some bland "before", but not letting people have a home they love is really harsh.

[@salvease]

@@janinafisher101 I understand why property owners typically don't want tenants to paint walls. If the tenant were to paint the walls white again once they move out, it ends up looking sloppy with layer upon layer of paint. It's a lot of work to remove and repaint properly. I've lived in apartments in which dripping layers are left as is. Looks awful.

[@lindalehr1551]

She really has gift for interior design. Nothing looks too busy and you would think with that mural it would but it doesn't. The apartment strikes me very calming and harmonious and even though it's not my particular style I really think it's gorgeous

[@maggieantalek]

This is so sweet! Thank you!❤

[@maggieantalek]

Thank you ❤

[@lauramason5667]

She has such a beautiful style and I’m so glad she’s not overrun with neutrals. Color is the best!

[@cindydoyle3893]

As a retired Interior Designer...I love your apartment ! It has a wonderful blend of energy and order. You could easily create another business as a Professional Organizer !!

[@petalss5325]

I love that she didn't just straight off buy new stuff. Seeing her use her old furniture in new ways is inspiring and is the way to go! Love her style. Definitely not for me, but I really enjoy the fun and warm vibe!!

[@lisalewis5404]

I love the murals. Those people who say it doesn’t look nice don’t have vision. It’s fun and cheerful .

[@RenaRego]

I like what she’s done with the place. Finally a small apartment properly laid out with maximizing space saving items done well.

[@robinweidner678]

Spectacular! Love how you have integrated art and function. If you need a third gig, helping people in small spaces address storage needs would be a natural fit. Even your storage feels artsy to me and pleasant to the eye. Mostly, I see a lifestyle you have created here of passion, creativity and warmth. Can't love it enough!

[@monroeclifford]

Happy new year 🎊 robin🎆❤️

[@priscillayg]

her apartment is intentionally designed and inspiring! the colors and furniture make it look really cozy. I can see why her mural art is popular, I would love to have one done.

[@roannakrisko7949]

Her apartment is fun, colorful and beautiful. She has everything in place. Great job!

[@truthseeker674]

I really enjoyed this apartment. It reflects the owner's interests and personality. I also wouldn't think that pink and orange would go together, but she pulls it off marvelously! Great job!

[@akhilp3559]

That mural is fire

[@Erintii]

Wall murals are absolutely amazing. They provided colors to the apartment but there is no effect of chaos. Table/desk is amazing. Personally I prefer regular desk but I understand space concerns. Storage space is great, I have less in a 2bedroom space.

[@laurapearson3370]

The best utilisation of space I've seen recently

[@ljshaw8516]

I've never, ever been afraid of color, and I love people who dive right into it as you do. Fabulous atmosphere!

[@barbarawillis4275]

I love the idea of the nice sized desk between the kitchen wall and the sofa.

[@toyaJM]

This space truly feels like it speaks to her personality. It’s so warm and inviting while being bright and somewhat airy.

[@ms.inspiration385]

I love that she sticks to being the creative & artistic person that she truly is & not the norm. I loved her apartment especially her mural. Beautiful!

[@szymonpifczyk]

What an amazing apartment! It's so colorful and full of things yet it doesn't feel busy at all, it just looks cohesive. It's not easy to pull that off so kudos to her!

[@janish3059]

Well since you look like a London girl from the '60s, the apartment is totally appropriate for you! Definitely my style, but I can recognize how nicely you did decorate it. I gave it a thumbs up

[@cmac9248]

It’s wonderful how you incorporated your personality into your haven . Most people are too preoccupied with keeping up with current trends so as to maintain the appearance of style . Your space is delightfully whimsical & cheery !!! Kudos to you for being so original 👍

[@christophermyers3758]

Love her apartment... so cozy, that I wouldn't want to leave. It maybe small, but doesn't feel claustrophobic! The best investment she made was the custom IKEA storage closet system, which with careful planning provides more storage than 2 or 3 little closets, a dresser and additional furniture. And it also balances and grounds the room. BRAVO! 🤗

[@Chris.from.1950]

I love what you have done with your apartment! Your commitment to your own style is impressive, and the IKEA closets are great. Thanks!

[@janinafisher101]

This is a really fun apartment! I love the colours and cheery brightness of the space, and think she did a great job. I'm so glad that she has found work as a muralist. It is so soul-destroying when people have to live in places that are decorator beige, or boring white, if they love colour!

[@sososanchez3512]

Umm can we talk about Maggie's Hair & Dress GORGEOUS!!!

[@maggieantalek]

Aw thank you!!!❤❤❤

[@Poppy-]

Very beautifully done little apartment. Well lit and bright, without being overly colourful. Great inspiration

[@suzysantana6033]

WOW I'm blown away!! This is by far my most favorite home makeover. You are EXTREMELY TALENTED. Its soooo beautiful and inviting.

[@aviajarehema7393]

Love the colors! Very nice!

[@brendabacon2465]

I loved watching her paint the walls with such bold confidence! It really is wonderful.

[@michellesmith8912]

I love her space. The mural looks like a hibiscus 🌺flower falling apart- beautiful.

[@margarettodd1600]

Love her use of colors and eclectic pieces!! Really adds character and charm!! She is uber talented and has a keen style!! 🤗

[@pamkowal7464]

I LOVE the mural, but if it was MY space, I would use a closed small buffet cabinet with doors to hide the bar items, as I personally feel that all the visible small items detract attention from the focal point that is the mural and makes the small space feel a little claustrophobic. There is no ‘negative space’ for the eye to rest on when there are too many smaller decor or even functional pieces out in view. Very creative and fun space, though!

[@Kim-mg6bo]

Ignore the haters Maggie. You’re space is truly unique and whimsical. 👍🏽

[@jenp5413]

i love this, and it looks so much larger than 320 sq ft. all the color seems to have made it bigger

[@sherrieshatzen3801]

I am a designer & I think your space is amazing. I love the color, the forms--the way your apartment feels alive. It feels curated & spontaneous at the same time. Your murals are amazing but your design skill is also top notch. Please don't write off design clients as your future. You can easily design the murals down to the last detail & have someone else actually do the physical work.

[@carolynek1875]

Whatever you like and whatever makes you feel like home you do it!! You have a beautiful place!!

[@DragonZelda]

It's lovely. Color palette is soft and pleasant. No idea why would some people call it crazy.

[@shannondavidson1886]

Love the 'free flow" mural.

[@craftingwithcharm7665]

I love how creative & talented she is, the way she combines the different colors & shapes! 🌸💜🌺

[@aep1974]

I watch a lot of these but rarely comment. I adore this apartment and what she’s done with it. Great job!

[@rosehill1595]

Love it! I saw your old apartment video just a few days ago and I must say that your new apartment is somehow even more relaxed with a bit more sophisticated vibe. That free-flowing mural is wonderful and simply perfect. Don't ever box yourself in - there are many options and skills and niches for designers. You'll do fine! Thx for the tour!

[@auroratorres7873]

Maggie has utilized every inch of her apartment to the fullest. Her place is awesome and it looks a lot bigger than 320 sq. ft. She is very talented and she has made her space all her own. The colors in each of the rooms work very well and do not clash with one another. I just hope that she doesn't have to move any time soon!

[@susanmark2000]

What a story she has. Great space with a cheerful, uplifting energy to it.

[@aliya2601]

Thanks a lot for inviting into your space. Such a bright, colourful and cozy place it is. I love it!💖

[@shimalovespeaks3472]

@apartment therapy I’ve noticed some of your more recent videos are doing an excellent job of: 1. Actually showing the entire space 2. Slowly panning so the viewers can actually see everything 3. Getting the homeowners to share where they store all their stuff 4. Getting the homeowners to share how they navigate their space to make it work (ex. Drop-leaf table as a desk, Ikea built-ins for storage, even the floor plan insert made my heart skip a little bit 🤓) Thank you for the attention to detail and all the effort you put into bringing high quality content.

[@storytimewithabi]

You don't have a clown house . You are artistic and those colors are so cheerful. There's way too many people in the world to try and please them lol what matters is that you enjoy and like it .

[@ThrivingNotDying]

I love the wall of storage and all the color. It really makes the space feel larger than it is. Even the gray mural in the bedroom is intriguing.

[@thriftingsuperstars]

That livingroom mural literally made me gasp because I love it so much!!

[@lalahaha5313]

I definitely like this apartment better than your last one. Like you said in the video, the organic shapes are much more gentle and pleasing than the geometric shapes. It's a beautiful home!

[@felicitywillboughby6901]

I think it's cosy, bright,beautiful. You wonderfully gifted. Thanks for a glimpse into yr gorgeous home. 💃💕🏡

[@ThereIsSoulInArt]

Your apartment is gorgeous! I LOVE your bright, bold mural. I know it isn't for everyone, but it's certainly my taste. I just moved into my first studio apartment a couple weeks ago & I'm loving it! I have all the basics & necessities, but wanted to live here for awhile to realize what I really need to complete it. Choices are extremely important when you are working with only 320 sq. ft.

[@ArtHistoryNstuff332]

Very much the Matisse vibe happening on the wall.

[@butterflysun]

Fun, happy and great energy.

[@MzShonuff123]

I am terrified of color but this is so great. It also just seems to really reflect her personality, which is what you should want from a home

[@12harrypotterfan34]

She did such a great job utilizing color and maximizing every inch of a small space. I love seeing tours of realistic apartments.

[@jacquelinelun4049]

I wish my daughter s future apartment will be like yours!! I love your aesthetic and I wish more people can get to know you and your murals are adorable!!

[@bernadinetinker3028]

Her home in itself is therapeutic. The vibe is upbeat and healthy.

[@esthervolkening3568]

Amazing! I'm a commited minimalist and deeply impressed by artistic maximalist spaces. She's a great artist. Women truly are amazing

[@asiapiranha8976]

This is one of the best apartment tours I've watched in this channel, thanks for sharing.

[@jillmarie4155]

I love the living room mural..... It looks like wallpaper

[@AlmondJoie]

So much to love about her digs -- the gold chairs, mirrors, and large planter are my favs.💕

[@nupt9473]

Gorgeous! I love all her space savers - this really doesn't look cluttered but she has so much storage.

[@sandramalone3522]

I have to say that your video made me happy to see all those beautiful colors that had style and fun. Love all the decor, you have super nice things.

[@bearnosaur]

The painter's tape tip was so good!!!

[@hutchinsonscott100]

This apt. is amazing. Nicely decorated and organized. Love the colors.

[@melcarter6422]

One of the most cozy cohesive spaces that makes great use of the space. The tips on the contact paper was helpful. Beautiful space!

[@barbarawillis5187]

Ms Antalek apartment is very inspiring. Find the colors that make you smile and go with it. I like the tip to apply painter's tape before applying contact paper.

[@ItsMeHer2266]

Love it! I get tired of the same ole same ole boring walls and homes. Pops of color is great and its wonderful that you are stepping outside of the box!

[@jeanong7694]

Smart use of space. It has everything needed in a Home. Sofa, stool bench with storage, kitchen island, love the folding work table, and love, love the dinette table. (I can’t imagine having my meal on a kitchen counter.) how nice to be able to have a proper meal on a lovely table. Cabinet for clothes are very well organized. Sorry but I wouldn’t put my shoes in the same cabinet with clothes. Shoes smell and are dirty. Personally I would keep my shoes in a separate cabinet. All else are great. Bathroom is neat. Thank you for showing your apartment.

[@Sisteryoda1440]

This is such a beautiful apartment design - light, airy and amazing use of space in its efficiency.

[@zerowhite2286]

Absolutely gorgeous. I love your colours and textures, and the mural makes me smile. So many clever functional but attractive solutions. The fold out table behind the sofa works well. Also appreciate the before and after pictures.

[@otakelblanchemanor0659]

This is a space that will put a smile on your face as soon as you walk in! Warm, inviting and relaxing! Now pass me a Cosmopolitan! 😉

[@bindar8473]

Adore this. This space reflects her authentic self ❤

[@prissilou]

Great use of color, and I love the way the space is laid out and organized. A super cute 1 bedroom that could even work for a couple.

[@janissteadman285]

amazing !! I love people doing their own thing and totally embracing their creativity at home , it just elevates your life XX

[@cherylespeckerman3216]

I love your apartment! It may be colourful but there is a symmetry to everything. So good on you for doing what you needed to do, to make it your space!

[@deborahlundy6892]

I love her house I’m all about color and it’s exactly how I would decorate my home. I love the mural she’s very talented

[@JacyOnTheFly]

How can anybody not love that mural?! It's stunning and captivating! Nice work!

[@mslinda9470]

Love the place. Very inviting and fun. Full of colours

[@IntoHVACWorld]

I love everything about how that turned out. Perfect use of space and colors

[@trisnaekowiyatnikawaii3860]

she just looks like a young jennifer aniston. What a lovely young lady with a vibrant energy. Love her colorful yet artistic apartment

[@maggieantalek]

Best complement ever!😂❤ thank you!

[@Lulu-oi9ue]

Love it. Soo unique and just gorgeous. Soo much vibrant energy.

[@SusannahPerri]

What a wonderful, happy apartment! I don’t even like a lot of color on the walls, and yet I feel like I could live there because it was created so thoughtfully and the shapes are pleasing and organic. 😃❤️

[@ntcssj]

Gorgeous!!!! Totally my style! I adore the colour and think everyone could use more colour in our lives. It brings joy and energy!

[@knoris6457]

Her dress is, her space, her style is so beautiful!

[@wendyparkhill3384]

Thx for opening up your home to us. Adorable and unique, warm and fun!

[@magdajaskua954]

murals are great . I really appreciate them even though i prefer scandinavian style and have white walls at my spot

[@itscarlamcd3122]

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her! I admire her creativity and how unapologetic she is when it comes to her style and decor choices. I also love how she described her place WITHOUT explaining every-single/object she owns. Those kind apartment tours drive me nuts! ThNks for sharing your awesome space with us 👍🏽👍🏽

[@marinathomas7820]

Hi Maggie, I absolutely love your home. There's nothing weird or clowny about it. You've organized it very neatly and systematically too. There's nothing more needed to make a home truly feel like home.

[@elisesterling9634]

One of my favorite apartments tours so far! Love the unique design and the organization!

[@kgal1298]

I remember her previous apartment I was so sad she had to move. I love it and it's not my style, but I really appreciate how she can style it.

[@JudgeyJudgeyable]

She is definitely a very talented muralist

[@snorlund1]

I loved how colourful this space is! Very cozy! Love the mural! Good organization and storage, as well! ❤

[@debbiemoreton2372]

I love her apartment! Fun, colorful, organization

[@jennyhammond9261]

She's very talented!

[@susantinberg7441]

I LOVE THE MURAL. Unique and personalizes the space.

[@donnabanks7656]

I love it!! Never stop your creativity.

[@fromhumblebeginnings7798]

I am cracking up! I went to add you on insta and TikTok BUT you were already followed on both!! Your style is so refreshing! I can't to commit to styles that are gray and white or "boho" because they aren't crazy colors. I have the same depth of color as you do and I must have seen your previous vid and followed you - Grateful that I do!!!
