Former New Yorker here. While I like the finishes in the kitchen and the lighting in the bathroom, most of this was botched in my opinion. Worst of all is the dual sink, which is a stupid waste of space! A smaller sink would have allowed enough space to keep a regular shower! Also, I'm not a fan of murphy beds, and that sofa is way too big and unnecessary. I lived for 9 years in Midtown Manhattan in a 900 square foot 1BR and having more than 1 guest at a time was extremely rare--I think I had a group of friends over exactly once in those 9 years. A much smarter layout would be a love seat or 2 comfy chairs plus a regular queen bed that you wouldn't have to adjust. But what really blows my mind is spending all that time, money and effort renovating and NOT HAVING IN-UNIT LAUNDRY! That apartment easily had the space for a ventless stackable or combo washer dryer, which is the ultimate apartment luxury in NY (or LA or any other big city for that matter). Also, I would have sacrificed some of the upper level storage for artwork and/or books along the upper walls, which would have given the space a more personal and elegant look.
@WhoisKell5 жыл бұрын
Christopher Stone yeah I agree! Also the kitchen sealing is very very dark which makes it a dark space. Should make that lighter as well. I would have kept the sleeping space on the loft and the murphy bed for guests. They could have also put in a bigger cooker instead of the 2 sinks.

I love this space but the critical failure for me is the upper storage. He's tall and struggles opening and closing the upper storage on the bed wall. WHY NOT: do a library style ladder, rolling along a nearly hidden track so you dont (a) have to move the ladder from A to B and (b) it is easy to place the ladder where you want (rather than finding these blind holes). The other convenience issue (like a 15% bonus) is the walk in closet. That is brilliant! But obstructing your ability to go from clothes or completely blocking the passage is silly. Meaning each of the doors should be able to swing open to a full 90°, then be aligned with a track that lets the door slip into the cabinet. This then reducing the door's encroachment into the bathroom hallway / walk-in closet and makes for a very natural interaction of: "I need to go to the bathroom so you have to leave the walk-in until I am done." And just as a point of reference, some people are 155cm tall. Not exactly ideal when they cannot easily ascend ladders.

For how efficiently this is intended to be, there seems to be a lot of inefficient use of space as well. Have this big table but you have to grab these heavy units from an up high cabinet you have to move a heavy ladder for to reach. Supposedly you could put those in a lower cabinet but you'd likely use that for more every day stuff. But then you also have this tiny fridge which would be fine along with the tiny stove if you're eating out every night but that means you're not really gonna be able to accommodate that many guests you have that massive table for (which isn't even straight on those extensions). Plus where are you gonna leave all the chairs you're gonna need for your party of 10? Also up in the mountains? Then you have this loft for "storage" when you already have this big ass cabinets, or, as shown here, a bed. Why not keep the loft for the bed, and use the murphy bed for more storage and get a couch that serves as an extra bed if you really need that for your minimalist getaway apartment. For how technically still pretty huge this space really is, it seems to lack a true purpose and kind of half has something for everything but also not enough. Idk why I'm so heated about this space but it just doesn't feel right

Hi Kirsten, I really enjoy your videos and the very interesting projects you show us. Our architecture office is working on a very interesting project at the moment and I was wondering if you would be interested in coming to visit it? The project is still not completed, but hopefully the clients will be in by the end of the year. It's a historic house built along the medieval fortifications of Luxembourg City, with hanging gardens. The renovation process was done with natural materials such as clay and lime render both inside and out. But what's special is that our client is an artist who needed an atelier built for his printmaking machinery, so we extended under the garden into the wall and rock face and created a light and bright orangerie for him to be able to work from home. We were able to almost double the size of the house is a conservation area that would otherwise not allow any extensions. As for the hanging gardens, the client is also in the process of turning it into a food garden with an impressive collection of fruit trees, bushes etc.

I love how much storage they have, this is small but not minimal and I like that a lot.

New Yorkers are the best at creating space where there is none... That's why New York is the greatest city of all... Thank You!

I like that bathroom design. The kitchen I think is too dark. Maybe additional accent lighting above and lighter tile on floor and wall would brighten it up well.

I agree about the kitchen its way to dark! They could have had some color and more lighting for sure.

What a beautiful space. Well thought out to maximize the space. It feels very calm and relaxing. I love it.

I saw a projector tucked away in the kitchen; such that there was a screen somewhere(?) that comes out to watch movies? Did I miss that somewhere? Having large screen movie that tucks away along with everything else seems like one more plus point.

I love love love this place It's so practical I don't feel like I'd be missing anything Maybe outdoor space would be a nice addition but everything inside is so thoroughly done & it seems it would be so easy to keep clean

This space and design is utter perfection down to every 1/4 inch. They've thought of every purpose ie neighbors doorbell sound . Everything is functional all at the same time beautiful zen design no clutter because everything has been thought out every inch of the apartment used. One of the best designs I've seen. Gorgeous. Love to know the cost of the apt and then the renovation

It is what it is - a “Tiny Home.” But it wonderfully thought-out and a very good product. Incomparable to the unit they. Started with - WELL DONE!.
