Drink every time she says like: hammered. But also, plants and the minimalist color palette👌🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@gladysperez8156]

I like her bedroom because the focus of the room is to sleep. So the plants around the room is uniquely beautiful. I’m learning to let go items in my bedroom and her room inspired me to continued to be less hoarder in my bedroom because it’s less noisy when there is less items.

[@marshallsmith750]

Now this is my idea of NYC loft living--love, love, love! It's so chic, minimal, and calm.

[@kayelle8005]

Having recently seen a lot of Caleb’s videos asking people in New York how much rent they pay and then touring their tiny apartments that mostly cost a fortune in rent I can only imagine how expensive this place must be to rent.

[@marianne4902]

I imagine it would be less than you expect this place to be in areas like manhattan, simply because she did saw she’s in Brooklyn.

[@chalkchalkchalk]

​@@marianne4902 you would imagine wrong, unfortunately. Bushwick (and the area of the neighborhood they are in, which judging by the loft is probably near the Morgan Ave stop just across the Williamsburg border) is really expensive now. I'm guessing they own the place given how much work they've put into it.

[@user-wh5ir4fo4r]

@@chalkchalkchalk I assumed they owned.

[@great-garden-watch]

I like the statement about seeing all the shoes at once. Everyone is against open shelves in the kitchen now but mine save me so much time looking for stuff.

[@ohthechitchat]

Gorgeous home. The reuse of items, desk, chairs etc has been done in a modern way. I love the bedroom. The lady herself seems to be someone who is discerning but friendly.

[@surveyor1515]

Not hating but I have to be honest (and would love feedback) here, these basic and mediocre furnishings and decor that are presented (owned) by a cool and fashionable woman get so much love because of the owner herself. If they were owned by a woman or man that didn’t seem cool then they would be largely ignored if not criticized for their decor style..🤨

[@ninajo1112]

Mauzet, I don't know. The men who hav the really minimal techi apartments...I LOOOOVE.

[@surveyor1515]

@@ninajo1112 Fair enough, I understand its an appealing style for some but I just really got the “nothing special but she seems cool so wow great job decorating!” vibe 😆

[@ohthechitchat]

@@surveyor1515 I think I see your point but I see style in the way these items are used and placed. I think many of us have ordinary things but for me I would not be able to create a space as curated.

[@g.d.anonymous8235]

We used to make shelves, bookcases and places for our stereos back in the 60's with planks and cinder blocks. When I saw hers, I had to laugh because when we were in our late teens and early 20's, this is all we could afford. So now, it's a stylish "thing." 😆

[@nama1243]

Maybe it is how she presented it? Art is about know the meaning what you want to convey, and that is also the same with decor I guess. If you know how to explain why you design something, it will appear ´stylishˋ. Although budget also can be a reason when design things, but if you have/put meaning to your design it will elevate how people see your concept 😊

[@surveyor1515]

@@nama1243 That’s actually a great point, honestly didn’t think of that at all so yeah, that’s probably a big reason why apart from her own style..

[@RubbelisPro]

well maybe it's all she can afford, I mean you have to kind of assume that most people from NY aren't following the 30% of your gross income rule with rent.

[@luciflemme]

my parents made their whole record shelf out of planks and bricks when they moved in 40 years ago, and although they definitely upgraded the rest of their furniture, they still have that exact same DIY shelf in their living room today, hasn't moved an inch, it's just a classic ;)

[@aaioann]

This is soooo gooooood. I really admire their ability to balance the super modern/industrial style of much of the apartment with some gentler/warmer things as well like all the plants and shelving area above the bedroom door and yet it all still works well with each other.

I like the way the door opens into the kitchen because you don't waste that space by being "pretentious". Nothing about this home is pretentious in fact...but it's still fabulous!!!

[@mimilola6197]

My favorite spot is where the credenza is. It’s beautiful and all of your plants are awesome (I love plants ♥️.)

[@user-il5hf7vp9k]

Beautiful home. Also Impressed by how well she takes care of all the plants there

[@breathpresent53]

So glad to meet someone else who is against TV and social media in the bedroom 😊

[@barbarawillis4275]

This loft space is an open canvas for any type of decor. I love that Ashley uses a lot of homemade furniture. I love the sweet kitty.

[@BadassBitchProject]

I loooveee these videos! They became my happy and my safe place this year that I discovered them. I feel so relaxed and inspired when one of these videos ends and the most important thing is the acceptance that promoted about other people and the beauty of their minds, of their feelings and of their homes! I always learn something new about decor and I always find something to appreciate.💛🌻

[@KohalaLover]

Love the kitties! 🐈‍⬛ 🐈

[@rotru4977]

Love everything about this place. Well not the dining room art piece, but everything else.

That framed BAUHAUS poster though! I love this style, & that black panther table is a star 🙌🧙‍♀️🐈‍⬛🧹🕷️🕸️

[@angelabayern]

The star is the cat! 😺

[@elohelliz]

I really admire the thought Ashley puts into each & every item in their space 🧡 their love for adaptive reuse really shines in this loft. Making a space with really high ceilings feel cozy and welcoming is a gift!

[@angelacooper4448]

Your home is such an expression of you and your partner. I think it is beautiful

[@MariaLoysen]

Beautiful, peaceful & super cozy inviting. Also love the sweet kitty ❤

[@theemarydee1610]

It is so nice to your bookcases weren’t arranged by the color spectrum. Though I do think if anyone could this, it you and your partner. 💕💕

[@anniekeller6351]

I really love this loft space & the pieces of furnature in it. I really like all the pieces Ashley made herself. The shelving, the tables made with pipe kits and using chairs and stools from public high schools. Also, it looks like you can find a lot of that stuff at thrift stores (which Ashley did) and all combined give your loft space a really industrial vibe which is so appropriate for her pad. The total functionality of every section of this loft is great and well thought out. Needless to say I'm very envious of the two women & their cool home.

[@antoniovila4952]

Her video is great. She seems to be a very honest person. Her apartment is super cool, and her taste is impeccable and her plans are out of this world. Thank you for this great awesome tour of your apartment. Incredible. And I almost forgot her super Duper cat ✔️😺

[@ronnelhamiel7921]

Downside of open shelves--DUST!

[@jennifersutton3115]

I love your home. Because it's simple. The look feel relaxed. I love the plants. It give life. Your home has a lot of personality. The details is meant to be. Many thing's will start a conversation. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@Stayinflo]

That panther coffee table went double platinum in several Black American households lol

[@emilie658]

Th picture above your dining table reminds me of the quite famos Austrian painter Egon Schiele (1980 - 1919).

beautiful home and collection of items, I especially love the narration by the owner and the stories of everything.

[@panamaveggie]

Wow Ashley your home is amazing, beautiful light, so functional and pleasing to the eye. The industrial look is tricky, hard to get it right, sometimes it makes a home feel cold and unwelcoming or on the other end of the spectrum too themey and overwrought, so many ways to go wrong...but yours is just perfect. Love!
