NEVER TOO SMALL: Micro Apartment With Multifunctional Mirrored Pod, Melbourne 27sqm/291sqft

[@websoup]

I remember this team. I also like their previous works on NTS. The copper joinery is very clever but at the same time lends warmth to the room as opposed to the usual mirror. Well done.

The pop of colors were unexpected. I do love them. Such a minimalistic look but also has a fun touch to it. Best part: Bathroom has a window 🙀 I am very old-fashioned in that regard.

[@lukthere2]

All bathrooms should have windows 👊

[@miyayume_eclectic_dream]

@@lukthere2 YES! But not all have. For the second time I live in one without 😔

[@TeeBoyd88]

​@@lukthere2 we have two bathrooms. Ensuite has a window, hallway bathroom has none. It can be done with a skylight, not really popular where I am. Bloody electricity prices! we need a ceiling light turned on for 2/3 of daylight hours.

[@Pp4Gd]

@@TeeBoyd88 I’m not sure why transom windows are no longer used. But a long time ago there was an oblong window (transom) above all the interior doors so light can be let in while the door was closed. Placing mirrors in a correct way can also bring more light into a space. I have a very dark kitchen and the closest window doesn’t let a lot of light in but the mirror I have placed on this particular wall reflects the light and allows more natural light in. Seems to happen a bit more lately but losing electricity at night can be frustrating. So, I have 6 solar lights that I have charging during the day and at night I can have a light in all needed rooms when needed. There are so many solar lights to choose from and ways to display them so they don’t look like a solar light. Just a thought.

[@EmL-kg5gn]

Yes! For natural light but also ventilation 😅

[@natalia_juniper]

I was surprised how much you managed to fit into a 27 sq m room. In the video it looks like a big room but in reality it is small. We had been living in a 30 sq m studio for a while and all we could fit in there was a wardrobe, a bed, a tiny sofa, a small refrigerator, a TV stand (which we used as a kitchen unit) and a small closet with a sink on top and all the household items inside. We were lucky that we didn't need winter clothes there because there would have been nowhere to put them. That apartment was more like a hotel room in size.

[@l.a.3479]

[@jama211]

In Japan there are cheap services that will take and store your winter clothes and vice versa when the seasons change, maybe we need something like that elsewhere.

The copper joinery is definitely the star of the space. I really like how it extends the kitchen window, making it seem so much longer than it actually is, bringing so much more light into the space.

This is peak Never Too Small content for me.

[@tallibethau7713]

It's basically just a tiny room, doesn't really feels like an apartment. Yet, the team has done a superb job fitting and arranging everything into a sensible layout. Simple but still has a feature piece! Great job!

That sofa is brilliant in this space. Couch, dining banquet and spare bed.

[@claudiamarquetti2599]

Eu mudaria muitas coisas. A única coisa interessante foi fazer um box pra disfarçar o banheiro. Não gostei do espelhado e nem da cor. O balcão camuflado da cozinha ficou muito estranho assim como a pequena mesa que poderia ser maior e com várias cadeiras combinando se puxasse o sofá mais para frente. Tudo sem cor e sem quadros.

[@bhotsnax]

These designers did a great job creating this space; especially how the kitchen disappears because of the view.

[@zeruzio1345]

It looks great and I love the concealed entry, for me the cleaning of the mirrored finish would make it a big no personally. Appreciate the honesty about this being an AirBNB for the majority of the time as well.

[@jnbond]

I totally felt like this would be a great vacay stay and then to learn it's an Airbnb. lol

[@JessieBanana]

I don’t think the mirrored finish is as big of a cleaning deal because you’re mainly interacting with a small part of the doors. You would never be cleaning the entire surface regularly. I have an appliance in stainless steel I thought would be terrible to keep shiny, but as I only touch a few buttons I only have to polish a limited surface.

[@anniehaunted]

I usually don't comment but this is a masterpiece! I can't believe its only 29sqm. This copper mirror is so unique and clever. The whole design is so fun and light at the same time. I looooove it!

[@Alicia-ij6gt]

Full marks for the cork flooring. The kitchen is so seamless, I didn’t even see it at first. Great example of a hero piece of joinery, incorporating the bathroom. And as usual, the high production values of the video sets NTS well above other interiors videos.

[@rachelattack]

This has to be the most successful version of this kind of small space solution, the finishes are so good. Really smart to use that mirrored kickboard, the way the kitchen is seamless works so nicely. And the bathroom was so cozy! So many really great solutions I absolutely love it

[@Em-uy9wj]

“Breaking up the space expands the journey through the apartment” wow so well said this is my favorite in a long time!!

[@todortotev5399]

Considering they were working with 27 sm2, they did wonderfully. The video did not show the storage space for shoes, which I assume is somewhere near the entrance door. I especially liked their solution for the "two people being in different meetings at the same time" problem, which I used to have with my ex when we both worked from home. With slight tweaks to the kitchen area, I would live 100% of the time in such place. But considering the limitations - it's a temporary home for someone who does not cook, the architects took the right decision to simplify the kitchen.

[@Frederiekje221]

The shoes go in that pale blue architectural stool, I think, or in that pale shopper bag on top of the stool.

[@TheSecretChateau]

Or under the bed? I would have added storage there.

[@fabioalbuquerque6154]

So, I assume that the problem was huge indeed ("ex")

[@thatjillgirl]

It looked like there was some sort of storage under the bed. I figured that's where the shoes go.

[@talkingbirb2808]

yep, and no place for hanging clothes near the door.

[@sharlah4057]

I love how the kitchen is right at the window. I can imagine mentally borrowing the outdoor space whenever I get up to make a cuppa etc.

[@cirene9590]

Well done for such a small space. Having a laundry service in the building is really helpful. Like this small space because it is all in one floor with a proper bed. Great use of the copper mirror.

[@ske3230]

That's a really cool and original idea, it does have a really elegant look. The bathroom door opening directly into the toilet and also facing the bed looks a bit off to me, maybe switching the toilet and shower position or just finding a different spot for the door would have been nicer. The bed area just looks a little less refined from the rest of the apartment. But that couch is a really good concept, it could also just double as a spare bed and I like the swinging doors, really helps when there is less space. It would actually be nice if the people would discuss the difficulties they had with the project and how that influenced the final result.

[@B__C__]

I love it when they show off a space's unique lighting fixtures in action.

[@TamaraJoy7]

I absolutely loved the clever ideas in this design so much that I had to rewatch and take notes! Favourite ideas were: the couch design, the mirror coppered curved wall , the simple low level kitchen design in front of the widow, the long dining table/extra kitchen bench space, the internal cupboard colours, the curtain around the bed… I would love to stay here one day in St Kilda!

[@uniqdzign2]

The copper pod, is superb, and so too it the general layout of the apartment. The mirrored floor under the cabinets really extends the visual impact. As a minimalist, I really resonate with this design throughout. Excellent job!

[@tiffanyheng671]

Really like the well thought design . functional , airy and aesthetically pleasing to the senses .

[@tuppence937]

Love that mirror finish copper joinery so much. Unlike others - the chance of finger print marks on the mirrored finish would not worry me at all. The curtaining of the sleeping area looks stylish and functional.

[@Suho1004]

I really like how they worked color into the storage, not to mention the copper joinery, so that the place isn't so stark. The cork floors are another great trick to soften the feel of the place and bring in a natural touch. Overall, an impressive use of a small space. My one qualm would be that no one can use the toilet when the foldout desk is down, but I suppose that would just be a relatively minor inconvenience if the desk isn't used often.

[@l.a.3479]

That little space is claustrophobic. Also, the odor from the bathroom! 🫢🤢

[@YaaLFH]

@@l.a.3479 What odor? Ever heard of this modern invention called ventilation?

[@l.a.3479]

Ventilation doesn't make the environment 100% odor free, especially if you are sitting for any length of time in a tiny area outside the bathroom door. ​@@YaaLFH

[@YaaLFH]

@@l.a.3479 Yes, good ventilation does make the environment 100% odour free. If it doesn't, you really need to visit your GP because there's something very wrong with your digestive system. Healthy humans don't produce odours that can't be removed with ventilation. Also, did you somehow miss that there are TWO windows in the bathroom, one above the toilet and one above the shower? The table by the bathroom entrance is designed as a fallback, not main workspace. Stop being dramatic.

[@davonpointer2310]

I love the copper pod, so unique. A beautifully simple execution. Love it!

[@nanashivii9237]

That copper cladding is very striking. I live in the area and have spent a lot of time looking at similar apartments and am amazed how much this one central design feature transforms an otherwise very ordinary space. I actually love the contrast between the soft curtain divider and the warm copper. The way the mirrored finish plays on the mind to extend the area is also very clever. And the diffused light above and below is all it needs. Only downside is how limited the kitchen is, that's something I can't abide.

[@wge621]

wow the orange paint and tiles inside the bathroom is perfect!

[@csieweng]

Love the multifunctionality that includes the wall! This is possibly the best among so many bests.

[@conniebruckner8190]

Lovely to see what you've done with this small studio apartment! Opting for copper certainly makes it outstanding! Glad to note you chose block-out curtains for the bedroom area.

[@diegaah]

This is an elegant division and use of space. The doubled duty sofa is brilliant. I think seat height adjustments will need to be accounted for when dining seating is activated at the sofa. A series of cushion prop ups would make this sofa-dining table configuration more ergonomic.

[@ellalaird7162]

Ok wow! This is so good. I love how considered all the transitions are between spaces. The copper joinery makes the space look so large. It’s hard to believe it houses so much behind it.

[@susanshannon1984]

Amazing and thoughtful use of space...all of the finishes and layout create seamless transitions throughout and bring a lightness & airiness to the apartment. The curved edges allow the eye to travel easily throughout. I love that the toilet was rendered separately from the rest of the bathroom and with a pivot door; essential element. I also love all of the soundtracks NTS posts with their videos; they create such a special ambiance.

[@AmyAnnetteHenion]

Absolutely gorgeous! That copper unit is inspired. But the folding wall desk drives me crazy - having to clear it and fold it down every time someone needed to access the bathroom would do my head in!

[@petiteange08]

I think it's temporary for when the couple needs to have separate meeting space, like when they have calls at the same time. Otherwise there's enough space so they can both work at the kitchen table. It does help that this is a temporary dwelling, I agree that if a separate and more permanent working station is needed, the way it's designed is impractical.

[@thatjillgirl]

I mean, you would keep it folded up whenever it wasn't in use. With a max of two people in the apartment, it probably would rarely be an issue.

[@sonicblanket]

Absolutely superb work. Congratulations and thank you for sharing your gifts with the world.

[@jnbond]

That rose-copper-joinery-hued mirror wall gives the illusion of transparency even though it's not! Just wild!

[@kemicollective4243]

One of my faves. The copper joinery is a luxe touch.

[@stephenbrickwood1602]

No upper cabinet in the kitchen, just a wide open space gives a feeling of massive elbow room. But warm enclosure, not as intense as the Farnsworth House Illinois. The bed space is always ready for a rest.

[@olalalala4302]

Only things I would do differently is instead of a curtain, have translucent glass separation and a sliding glass door for the bedroom. Also put the sofa closer to the tv, so that I could have a proper dining table at the back with soft plaid chairs. But other than, wouldn't change much as this is a beautifully made apartment.

[@rebeccad5565]

You got a ton of usefulness into the pod. Couldn’t live with a reflective surface like that, or any huge mirrors, for so many reasons. Would flip the location of the living space and the kitchen as the TV is not part of life but looking outdoors while relaxing is so important.

[@vincyagain]

I think the curves in furniture and builds in the apartment makes is warm and soft on the eyes. What a clever design for hidden storage, but I think you have to be very disciplined to keep the apartment clean and looking spacious like this! It makes sense that they don’t stay at this apartment long and often travel, it definitely can’t house people who are not two busy working adults haha!

[@janeb3024]

Although I do not care for mirrored surfaces, this space uses them tastefully and creatively.

[@SuAndFox]

This is wonderful use of such a small space. The use of reflective copper gives lovely warmth. Well done.

[@PixelShade]

The only thing I don't understand is why they chose to have the kitchen sink next to the reflective copper surface. I have a 21sqm apartment built in the 1940s here in Sweden, with a stock "kitchen cabinet". The sink positioned very similarly and you'd be amazed of how much water hits the wall.

[@EricaGamet]

I'm also thinking it would be hard to rinse dishes, etc. there... my elbow would definitely get smacked on the cabinet twice a day!

[@rogue265]

Most likely so they could reuse the existing kitchen services - the floor would be concrete, and relatively expensive to replumb.

[@stephgreen3070]

Everything about this copper cube would be a nightmare to keep clean and smudge-free. I do house cleaning for a living and shudder to think about trying to keep this place shiny.

[@stroemsten]

Exakt! Inte bara det - svängdörrar skapar ett behov av yta för att kunna öppna dem. Ibland är det helt enkelt ytineffektivt att gömma undan saker. En bättre lösning hade varit skjutdörrar. Faktum är att de flesta ettor is Sverige är bättre planerade än denna, till ytan ganska stora, enrummare.

[@cutepotatoes208]

At first I thought: "oh no, the window is blocked", but then the old floorplan was shown and the way the light travels now is just so much better thanks to the reflective surface of the cabinets. I love the interesting couch with double functionality, it definitely adds to the homey feel integrating it into the dining area as well. I do find the study placement a bit odd, especially after having said it'd be a comfortable place to work from home. Working from home from tiny nook near the darkest part of your home and right in front of/blocking the bathroom is not exactly a comfortable working environment, even if it's just for a meeting.

[@ixlnxs]

That copper joinery is everything. Usually these boxes are great in theory but ugly in practice. This one is an objet d'art in its own right! The only no-no for me is white walls. I would use terracotta in the bedroom and pink in the living room. And yes I have that at home.

[@SF-ru3lp]

I'm a total fan of white. I find copper unit distracting. I like it reflective but i'd like it white to blend in with the living area rather than stand out in the space. Personal taste on mh part. Great design layout-wise. G Ire

Stayed for about 7 weeks in St. Kilda in 1991 quite close to the iconic Luna Park. It was dodgy back then and not a lot of gentrification was going on; mostly visual artists, musicians and such. It was seedy with fab second hand stores, a frayed edge pool-hall pub, a bottle shop with drive thru option, underground warehouse after-hours club(s), a cool second-run and festival curated art deco movie theater, and great fun for young, punk-goth Canadian travellers.

[@26realmc]

Love the overall concept. Access to microwaves and other primary kitchen appliances is always something that drives me nuts when placed incorrectly. The Pod main storage cupboards next to the kitchen could have been used to make the kitchen far more functional. While the owner may not be into cooking AIRBNB renters are often wanting decent cooking facilities. Most if not all of the kitchen items stored in that pod cupboard could have been stored in the cupboards under the kitchen bench. A good sized microwave/air fryer/convection oven in the pod space is far more functional. And didn't see a fridge?

[@LeviKanal]

It does have a 2 in 1 microwave+oven, and what you see at 6:00 is a pull out fridge-freezer. And it will honestly do for most people. I personally really appreciate the huge countertop space, thats already very luxorious for such a small apartment.

[@merilet]

For the fridge, I think they have a fresh container drawer, which looks awesome for non cooks, btw

what I like about this studio is the middle couch with the movable backrest - doubles as a sofa for living area and seat for dining space. the copper mirror finish isn't for me. I just wish the bedroom space could be interchanged with the bath area, thereby giving more privacy for the bedroom as you enter the unit. Overall, designing a small face is tricky and they have managed to make it uncluttered with some flexibility and minimal furniture conversion.

[@barbarar5869]

I am surprised that everyone loves the copper pod. I think it looks interesting, but I find it overwhelming and jarring in such a small space.

[@alexanderstavropoulos1257]

i like it because it gives the illusion of a bigger window by reflecting the light and doubling the perceived width of the window. it also gives an opportunity to have a lot of indirect light, which always looks good in a small space. i hope its built well because it looked like she was having a hard time operating the doors at some point, and there was an issue i noticed with the way the bathroom tiles were laid. one thing i liked was at first glance, the kitchen is almost invisible, and yet it seems functional. an obvious kitchen makes a small space look messy or uninviting, and the pod helped conceal some of the kitchen necessities such as overhead storage.

I agree. It's an awful clash of colour. Misplaced. Should have been silver to complement the silver finishes of the rest of the apartment. Notice the grey sofa. Terrible colour palette of an amateur design lacking visual sophistication.

this is so utterly gorgeous and clever. I'd happily live there. The only things I would want to be different is to move the sink away from the copper cupboard to make it practical for doing dishes by hand. In such a small kitchen, I would not want to allocate precious space to a dishwasher but I do understand that most people would prefer one so dirty dishes are left out. I would simply have to be more disciplined about doing the dishes and keeping bench clear. The only other thing is that I would introduce a rug infront of the sofa for warmth and colour and I would need books and paintings on display in the cosy sitting area. But otherwise, I think it is amazing what they did with 27m2. I'd love to use the mirrored copper for my wardrobes in my sitting room to extend the sense of space and reflect the window...... bravo!!!!
