Dubbed the Zen Den, this serene home by the creative duo behind Working Holiday Studio is brightened with an infusion of natural light and now serves as the couple’s personal residence and design showroom.

The house is nice, love that sectional. A perfect pop of color. Also, that man is beautiful.
Product placement done really well. This is a whole new level of marketing, i've never seen anything like this before. Working Holiday Studio, impressive.
Love the mix of Scandinavian and mid-Century with the warmth of the black trimmed windows. Very nice.
even though it's ad I'm still giving this a like. Edgy. Clean. Quirky. Beautiful entourage. Yeah, I'd live here
This has articulated my taste perfectly! Mid century modern - minimalist design/art - zen colourway. I love it!!
In my opinion a perfect house. Its not too colorful, its not too big, not too small. Just perfect
I would love to see before and after pictures of the home! Also, would love to see more of it -- the garage, basement, etc.! Beautiful! Happy for your! :)
Amazing design- elegant, peaceful and warm! 👏🏿 🙌🏿
I like the house. It is serene, peaceful, so, mission accomplished.
The design is amazing and as the guy said you can find the serenity in the house. However, the simplicity of Japanese and Scandinavian styles come from the local materials to have less impact on our planet. Not to achieve that look by increasing the carbon footprint by bringing materials from other side of the world.
so beautiful! please do a more in depth video. would love see the kitchen more!
this is the perfect chill vibe
Beautiful!
Are they really that tall or are the doors shorter than standard?
Amazing house. Simple yet very attractive to the eye. I love all the decor and colors, just enough, not too much Looks fresh and modern Saludos from Los Angeles as well 👌🏻😀
that fireplace needs a painting
Beautiful design !!! 😍

Where can the raw cotton tapestry be found, purchased?
LOVE the Mexico raw cotton tapestry, so unique. Can you share where to buy?

I found it weird--slightly inauthentic--to proudly proclaim that it was Mexican but didn't 'look Mexican.' This is another way of saying that you are ashamed of Mexico and want to imitate European Modernism. But in imitating European Models, you are yourself continuing a longer tradition of European Imitation that initiated when Mexico was a colony and was named NovoHispano. So, there's nothing truly modernist in this take on modernism. Instead of making Ionic Columns out of local materials, like the colonialists of Novohispano did, this couple has simply made Scandy dining tables out of local materials.

Love that coffee table! It’s cute and round. Where did you get that from?
You really shouldn't let former art students direct these videos. They get all caught up in "making art" at the expense of making a good, informative video. For example, I would have liked to have seen the whole bathroom, but no, instead we get an artsy-fartsy zoom-out shot that only ever shows part of it.
0:37 I would not describe the relatively bare interior nor the black exterior as "warm". 😆

That tapestry at the entrance is both art and sculpture. Just because there are walls, doesn't mean you need to cover every part of them with "art." Sometimes, less is definitely more.

@@MTMF.london It's not about plastering. There is clean, minimalistic art as well. I totally agree that some (SOME) paintings an sculptures are missing. I love the house and the interior as such, but in my opinion, more, carefully chosen, artworks would increase the spirit overall without destroying the serenity.
Cuts made me a bit dizzy NGL but gorgeous space!
Empty white box, wonder what they tore out of it?
CARA LARGA!
Looks like a Don Scholz design
I would have really appreciated the focus to have been on the before and after of this beautiful home and MUCH less on this couple. I wish the house was shown completely. What little was shown does look amazing.
look feels incomplete; maybe that s what japandi means
Zen and materialism. Oil and water.
probs could use more plants
Keep mid century mid century
This is contemporary, not midcentury modern. The outside of the property looks great, but it's now contemporary inside.
This house is a great base but it desperately needs some more artwork! The fireplace and many of the walls looks so unfinished
It’s very nice but just a little plain in my honest opinion

Is this just an advertorial for Western Window Systems? Appears to be the case.
It’s a shame we never got the chance to truly enjoy the beauty of this house. The music and quick cuts ruin these videos. Lo-fi hip-hop has become our generation’s elevator music. I really want to believe this lady is not this pretentious IRL, but the editing isn’t doing her any favors. Renovating a home with materials and furniture that aren’t local is hardly “minimalist.” Maybe aesthetically, sure. But something about the way this couple talked about their renovation was came across as insincere. I was actually hoping to learn more about the windows and doors.
Feels... very unlived in. Even the children's room is just a set.. I get that this is going to show case the design first and foremost but it feels so much like a set rather than a home. The chairs are really cool sculptural pieces that cost too much for anyone to use and if they did... do not look comfortable. Colors are very calming, and the layout has a great flow of space, but there is no real sense of personality... I think concept became more important than fuction.. this is a home, not an art installation.
Snore-ville.
There’s nothing “Japanese” about that all white drywall house. No lunch gardens, no woodwork, bland mega-sofas.
nothing japanese about this house. don'y just say it is to be trendy

They have a few nice pieces but the house is bland, with a poorly optimized plan and their decoration does nothing to change the general dynamic of the spaces.

There's nothing bland about the house. It has simple and clean lines - great bones, as he said. They did just enough to complement their life style and maximize energy-saving features. What is important is that they love it.

This house is a wannabe but couldn’t achieve its potential. It looks purged from Scandinavian styles but at the end with out any soul. The best part is their kid with the swing. All else is very dull.
it's really a boring looking house.
Nothing seems real in this video... Minimalist actor-supermodels with expensive designer furniture.
Help, the idiot 90's moustache is back :/. And this time, it comes with stupid glasses on top!
Beautiful!
Anyone know anything about the hanging tapestry?
