NEVER TOO SMALL: Attic Conversion to Elegant Micro Apartment, Paris 25sqm/269sqft

Head to www.nts-store.... to grab all our publications at one discounted bundle price.
Two adjacent derelict attics, with no bathrooms, kitchens, or plumbing have been completely transformed by talented architectural duo FRÈRES VOIRIN into a functional and modern micro apartment. Removing the false ceiling created space for a compact bedroom and shower to be added, accessed by a central geometric staircase, painted white like the ceilings and walls. The staircase incorporates a hidden washing machine, toilet and integrated storage. The ikea-hacked kitchen, tucked neatly under the upper floor, can be closed off with a movable, groovy shaped three-panel partition. The living room features a large double-height bookshelf and built in L-shaped sofa with a reading corner in front of the window overlooking the rooftops of Paris.

I agree! I don't like the idea of damp. Plus, I would have spared the sink. They have a sink in the kitchen downstairs which could technically have the same function. No need to take up more space in the tiny bedroom for that.

[@123a-o5d]

I can't see it being a problem if the skylight is opened after showering. I bet there's a massive through-draft if it's combined with opening a balcony door as well. Perhaps in the hotel you stayed in many guests had really long showers combined with not opening a window.

I am always intrigued to see these apartements. However, i would also love to see the people who actually live there or see places that have not been redesigned by architects, but just re-imagined on a smaller budget. But that’s just me. Because i love seeing what you can do without breaking the bank. Having said that - maybe thats just not the concept of NTS and thats fine too. It’s also great to see architects who do smaller spaces get a platform to shine. Over all, as a European, i love to see smaller spaces represented in any way shape or form. 🤗

Knowledge, skills and creative ideas have a price tag. Because regular non-architect person most likely does not achieve such a design. It's added value to the quality of living. I find it already generous that they share these designs free of charge in KZbin, we all can learn kits here and there😁

I liked quite a few design choices in this space. The bookcase, the compact kitchen with its soft yellow doors, the washing machine hidden away with the toilet, (but it’s too close to the kitchen ), the window seat, the all white interior, and the capsule bedroom. However I got anxiety seeing the shower cubicle stuffed into the corner up there. The moisture and steam from showering so close to the bed would not be practical unless it was fully enclosed with a strong extraction vent!

Where do you wash your hands after using the toilet? With the same sink you also use to clean your vegetables? The toilet is also too close to the kitchenette. I would have tried put the shower where the toilet is now and create a small, enclosed toilet space in the bedroom area (with a sink inside!). I really hope it will not become a new trend to not create separate bathrooms at all anymore, but I can see why having a proper bathroom in this place was not possible. Doesn't change that the placement of the toilet is awful and a shower doesn't belong so close to a bed and clothes.

[@KMConnor]

Most Parisian apartments have a separate toilet and it's often next to the kitchen. You just use the kitchen sink to wash your hands, it's not a big deal. In fact in a studio of this size it would be unusual to have a 2nd sink let alone a toilet in the apartment. These spaces are former servant's quarters and the toilet would be shared by everyone who lives on that floor, hence the lack of plumbing to begin with. Many people still live in these studios, especially students, as they are some of the only affordable rentals in the city.

[@crystalDM96]

Yep - swapping the toilet and shower placements is the way. But ideally I'd rather they put the toilet, shower and sink all on the ground level

[@I_am_Lauren]

The exposed wood beams are such a nice contrast to soften up the white space.

[@france4me117]

This is absolutely beautiful as it appears to function well and yes, the fact that it's not one of those design and you have to fold, open, pull and so many gesture that you'll need to do! Very well thought and it's simplicity really suits the small apartment. Well done to both architects :)

I love this space and the acrobatics that can be done within it! Hilarious❤ and informative video. I see some people complaining in the comments, that this would have been an expensive reno, and it's true that MOST people cannot hire an architect, but there are multitudinous youtube channels with helpful dollar store diy's which are totally legit and inspire mamy of us. On the other hand, I love that these architects mostly took volumes away. That's the MAIN thing they did and it's brilliant! I'm impressed with the simplest of shelves--the library. Then they painted everything white! Only a couple artistic details: the upper kitchen cabinets with the middle door referreing to the inspirational observatory dome, and the movable kitchen screen. Perfect touches that incurred some expense, but EVERYTHING else is simple, smart, functional design, just tucking the necessities in exactly where they fit, using the simplest materials: curtains, doors, minimalist stairs, and white paint to make it happen. And then, the coup de gras, totally exposing those gorgeous nail studded beams! Mm. As a designer and an artist, this reno makes complete and utter sense ro me. And I agree with many here; I do wish you'd provide cost details on this channel. I know it wouldn't be the most classy thing, but it would be respectful to consumer/humans. Consumer/humans want to know! (I love how Bryce always respectfully asks how much the owner's tiny build cost on his channel, "Living Big in a Tiny House." And it's SO satifying to hear them answer! SO satisfying.) I have to watch this great video again. Thanks!

[@ahumanbeing812]

The bookshelf by the entrance, the window that opens towards the oldest functioning observertore in the world, the L-shaped sitting bench just below the window, the creamy white wall-length curtain, the wooden beams from the original building, the kitchenette that is tucked underneath the upper floor and the portion used to hide it when not in use, the skylight in the upper floor, the storage wall and the curtain that hides it -- everything in this apartment exudes a classic Parisian elegance. It is a very successful renovation project. I love this renovated Parisian apartment, except one thing: the bed is next to the bathroom. Humidity can be a problem. It is not mentioned in the video, but maybe they have installed a ventilation fan in the bathroom or a dehumidifier in the space. Thanks for sharing!

Very cool as always. Though--maybe I'm just jaded--does it seem to anyone else like the more ingenious uses of small space have been less common, or said another way: the earlier videos seemed to be more clever and problem-solving-oriented compared to "merely" being just beautifully and elegantly done. Maybe it's just that those were the videos I gravitated toward when I found the channel. Just seems more like "these are nicely designed apartments" now whereas I feel like I remember it used to be like "Wow I never would have thought of that feat of engineering, that's mindblowing". Anyway like I said it's still really cool

[@ilLOLminati]

Totally agree, there used to be lots more innovative ways to use the space while still making it look really stylish and comfortable. This is cute, but it doesn't really wow me as much as some of the others.

[@tiggertay]

It could be that the more NTS videos we watched, the more we'll get a been there done that feeling, while the earlier ones will impress more because of the novelty factor.

[@supersnail5000]

Honestly I think it depends a lot on the demands of the client. Early small living concepts were often very utilitarian, often apartments designed from the ground up with integrated furniture, cabinetry, and wash rooms, designed as low cost living spaces, or in places like Hong Kong and Tokyo, where space is a luxury. This expanded internationally as small sub-let spaces in places like new york became more common, and is where the trend began to blossom online. Then we began seeing people apply some of these concepts to make slightly more luxurious spaces, but still incorporating a lot of functionality to create a fully featured home within a tiny space, or to create more open space to entertain when needed. Meanwhile an apartment like this likely isn't designed to be the clients only dwelling; they probably have a second much larger house out of the city, so considerations like storage, kitchen space, or the abilities for spaces to transform aren't required - it basically just functions as a slightly better equipped hotel room, which you don't need to be all that smart with to make work in a small space. It's designed more to be a pleasant and comfortable space, dedicating a lot of space to things like a large bookshelf, larger circulation spaces, and no need to transform furniture, which is almost a complete rejection of how the trend began (ie the gentrification of tiny homes).

[@gerda_asgeirs]

I like most of the design, especially that they managed to zone such a small space, however there are two major flaws to it. The first is that there’s no handwashing sink in the wc so you’d have to wash your hands in the kitchen sink ( not sanitary) and then sanitise the door knob. The other flaw is that the shower is in the bedroom, the steam is likely to condense on every textile in the room ( both the bed and wardrobe) and cause mildew/ mold. I realise that creating a larger bathroom would affect the whole floor plan, but it’s not really functional the way it is set up.

I kind of wish they extended the upper floor space more towards the living room, maybe to that exposed beam or at least halfway to it.

And that kitchen is so cute but how do you cook at all there? And that partition is fun but completely unnecessary

I'm not an architect or an engineer but could the ceiling have been extended halfway over the living area to still give a sense height but also have some more room upstairs for the bed.
