NEVER TOO SMALL: Large Living Room To Tiny Apartment, UK 34sqm/365sqft

[@schweizermadel3810]

I often wonder, why kitchen cabinets, fridges etc. open up the wrong way. All should open so they can be accessed from where you are mostly standing, while working in the kitchen, because if not, one has to move around the doors of cabinets or fridges in order to access its contents. Very unpractical! A professional should know that. All appliances are available opening either to the right or to the left. Cabinet doors can be mounted with the hinges on the right or left side.

[@amysquie]

Microwave doors wind me up for this reason! We have to have our microwave in a right hand corner and the door gets in the way when trying to remove the food!

I thought it was because they didn't want the far left door to bang on the side wall/cupboard?

[@tamarasurnina_renovation]

@@kismetau Also though about it. Could have been solved by adding same material as the doors on the side of the cabinets, flat to the wall, so it has enough gap to open, but visually not seen + no dust. Especially with all extra space on the other side, so shouldn't have been a problem of tight measurements

[@gonerogue3836]

He meant, the main bedroom area, hence, "master." As opposed to the guest bed in the study. But I agree, it's very uncomfortable to climb over the bed to go to sleep and reach the storage units. Making the bed would probably require pulling out the mattress and placing fresh custom made linen. Not practical.

[@conniebruckner8190]

It looks like a pleasant temporary stay. I agree with all those commenting on how difficult it would be to make the bed, and getting to the clothes/ things at the back of the bed. Many of us noticed that some cabinet doors and fridge door opened the wrong way. Maybe it is the only way to get the racks out? I too am missing a proper table, it need not be big, maybe something with wheels one could push to the side, or a fold up one attached to a wall...IDK, I like this, but have seen better solutions.

[@dilsency6101]

Love the foldout bed, the way that you don't need to get rid of anything beforehand. Also love the lack of knobs on the cabinets, makes everything easier on the eyes. Don't love how you can't walk on each side of the main bed. That space doesn't really seem functional, reaching the overhead cabinets there would be a pain.

[@michelestapleton]

I'd rather have a wall of cabinets opposite the foot of the bed so I could get into all those spaces without walking on the bed.

[@simply.k3573]

I see a few reasons why I wouldn't find this cozy home very practical - Firstly, very tiny fridge and few cupboards, which means regular grocery shopping; Secondly, it's a pain to make the bed and take the clothes above the bed. I think it's a lovely home for a short stay but not for the long term.

[@findingthatperfectspot4692]

I was thinking the same thing. The bed looks lovely, but it would be a pain to make! This seems to be a common flaw in homes designed by men. 🙂

[@LeviKanal]

I personally don't agree with that. A half sized fridge can fit plenty of food for a single house hold, and if you like to store food for weeks, you could totally add a second small fridge/freezer in this aparment. And yeah, the bed is not very convinient, but its a small sacrifice if you want a king sized bed in a small space. Picking out clothes and making your bed is just a 15 minute thing you do in the morning, so the architect probably considered that it was worth sacrificing to improve the feel of everything else.

[@diamondhelennn]

[@mariastathopoulos744]

Very limited storage for a mid to long term rental. A bar counter fridge isn't spacious neither are the wardrobe / closet spaces. How do you change the bedding on the king size bed? I'd rather a double bed with space around the sides. The fold out single bed is a clever idea. I wonder how much the rent is? I would surmise it would'nt be 'bang for your buck', from the tenants' viewpoint, considering it is in a well-to-do county loation.

[@fragitalltohell]

Change the bedding probably by crawling all over it and trying to lift the corners of the mattress at the head to shove the fitted sheet under it. Did it for years with a loft bed and it was a pain.

[@bf9436]

And I'll add that I bet only a man would live in a space that has basically NO closet space, hardly a fridge and he probably wouldn't even bother making the bed because it would be a pain in the *ss! LOL! Other than that, I like the light in the apartment and the fold out single bed that becomes a desk.

[@neilamsberry9841]

Bathroom storage was basically nonexistent, sink only/ pedestal sinks in proper bathrooms (not 1/2 baths) are always an oversight in my opinion.

[@megxkat9140]

I rented right near this house (based on the park in the initial shots) up until recently, when I was priced out of the area. A 1 bed flat with very similar ground area and modernization in the nicer part of town set me back £1150pcm. Although it's right on the commuter/airport line so there's lots of over-expensive boltholes for commuters, and they all get taken up by some single wealthy man who can afford it, anyway. Landlords in the area know their target audience!!

[@ANonyMouse627]

Considering there's a curtain that overs the bed area, you probably just leave it un-made

[@hotcha]

This place starts off absolutely beautiful, then absolutely falls apart for basic functionality: You can't access your clothes without climbing on over your bed. Glass doors seal off a tight office /sleeping space with no windows/ventilation -- you will suffocate or get extremely stuffy very fast. A fully mirrored wall faces your toilet 2 feet away, so you can stare into your own eyes while you're doing your business.

[@bernadetteapps9303]

I would absolutely hate making that bed.

[@rowaystarco]

My only real issue is the storage above the bed, it's okay but it could be moved to a better location if it's used for frequently used clothes. Otherwise the office space is fine, the glass is working with the reality that there's no windows there. That's compromise. Mirror pooping is fun.

[@somanyquestions3180]

Keeping all those glass partitions and the mirror wall behind the bathroom sink looking so shiny and clean must be an absolute nightmare, too.

[@fourmckeels]

I love the design. The mattress is flexible and won’t be that difficult to make if you are fit. Storage behind doesn’t seen to be that big of a deal. I like the office. The spare bed is ingenious. They did a great job of maximizing a very small space. I’d totally live there.

[@chavakern3124]

The closet space? Two hanging garments in the back of the bed?

[@davidowen2396]

Really light and attractive space. Good functionality. My only thought is that it does really feel more like a "granny" or guest annex than a separate, independent unit. The entry/exit arrangements are poor. I don't think entering via a patio door directly into the living space is generally viable...especially given the wet weather the UK has much of the year. He needs to rethink that in my opinion.

[@nitroxidious]

He says the door in the office leads to a communal laundry area and functions as another entrance into the flat. Probably you can enter from the original front door and come in this way. Would like to have seen it, or at the very least, a floorplan of the entire house.

Probably not. Looks more like he made a home for 3 families, likely his brothers and sisters while renting out apartments to make it financially possible.

Those kitchen doors opening the wrong way because you did not read the mounting instructions or because you won't use them so you didn't care to think it over...that glass door of any 60's administrative office you'd hate to work in, but at home : what a great feeling ! ...... that "table" or counter so narrow you could never put an italian plate for pasta on it and where you can eat only being perched on those uncomfortable stools or standing.... I don't feel the space, I only see a big void on one side and cluster on the other. Anyway even young, I didn't want to crawl to go to bed even occasionnaly, so every night...

Make it so such grandiose buildings can't be owned legally, homes and land that remains empty are repossessed by the govt to turn into affordably social housing. There are plenty of families who also need affordable housing who would have viewed that home prior to subdivision as luxury.

While this is quite lovely and serene as shown I should think that living here would mean boots and shoes at the door, a coat tree since there aren’t any closets or wardrobe for coats, hats, etc. We lived in a place without closets and this means lots more storage out in the open that I think has been cleared away to make this video.

I generally love all spaces shown on NEVER TOO SMALL, but this one is different. I think (nearly) all other spaces on this channel were designed/created specifically for the people who would live in that space. I think it is quite essential in small living that a space is tailored to the person who will live there. This space is missing that personal touch, or practicality, or true believe in small living as an actual way forward. Rather, it seems to have solely been a decision driven by profit. When the owner says he converted his family home into four smaller apartments, I can't help think, but why not three? They would still be small, but at least you could make it slightly more comfortable. Aside from that I am missing some creativity here. If you choose to convert a building that was originally thought of as a family home, it seems too narrow-minded to simply change each individual room in that home into a studio apartment. For it to truly work, you'd have to actually rethink the home/building as it is (demolish some walls, think outside of the box). All of that said, I am relieved this was not converted into five apartments.

Really beautiful! I grew up in these type of houses and know this area of England well. It’s a masterful transformation of a space!

[@lyndaster46]

so beautiful. I did not enjoy the thought of getting in and out of that bed, but the rest of it is like my dream space incarnate!

[@cattali]

this has got be one of my favorite homes! sooooo serene and well thought out

[@ChewFingers]

It's a beautiful space, but I feel like there was definitely space for more storage by the wall going into the bedroom. Also, I understand why glass and mirrors are becoming bigger and more prevalent in homes, especially in smaller spaces, but putting one behind the sink like this is cool in theory only. They stain immediately, and it's very noticeable. A home shouldn't aspire to be so high maintenance.

The desk/bed is really cool.

I often lay in bed imagining how I could make my room into a self contained unit! As it is now I have loads of free space, which I do value, but sometimes I think it would be so freeing to have less space to upkeep.

That mirror in the bathroom and a glass door/wall in the study? Tip Top! ✌

[@lunatickgeo]

I love it, the bed looks cozy but as someone pointed out in other videos with similar sleeping designs, wouldn't changing the bedsheets be really difficult?

I would make the master bed a Murphy bed. I personally do not like a big mirror in the bathroom but I do understand the concept that it makes it feel bigger. In the kitchen I would have between the countertop and the cabinets another countertop that you could swing out if needed. How long it is depends on the placement of sinks, stove, oven, etc. The stove and oven do not have to be together anymore. What a lovely plan! Thank you for sharing.

I love this space!!! Congratulations!!

[@onthefieldofdharma2768]

Really well thought out. I’d love to see how the other three apartments used their spaces in the house

[@melindal.614]

One of my top 3 favorites!!! 👏🏼 🤩

[@howaboutnooo00]

this has some very smart choices, the convertible desk is inspiring! I love everything except the huge mirror facing the toilet, I don't much love watching myself when I'm taking a dump lmao

[@shellypratt2841]

This space was so well thought out 🎉 love it 😊

[@derekketcher9154]

I could see this as a really great space attached to a main residence for people needing to take care of elderly parents...

[@miyama9351]

I would like to see more UK tiny apartment

[@Luz-gq1qc]

Precioso, interesante y muy aprovechable. Enhorabuena, good job!!

[@sepostill]

I like it. I would suggest (1) that the niche above the bed be higher so that two people can read it bed while in the bed (2) the the seating be more comfy, ie backs on the stools, soft deep sofa and side chair.

[@sdmsdm7926]

Compact but comfortable, I like how it's overcast and rainy outside but inside it's bright and airy feeling, just wish the fireplace didn't have to disappear.

[@anniinthewoods8287]

Beautiful and calm, well done indeed!

[@riseevolution]

i like this idea .... small enough... need some changes... the rest of the house is rented to others. i needed this!
