It's a very good sign of a healthy relationship when the partners respect with others' spaces. The fact that you made an effort to make sure he'd have his room in which he can be on his own shows how secure you are as a boyfriend. Good for you, guys! ❤️❤️

Five years? Congrats! I truly believe partners/spouses should have separate spaces. Even sleeping separately sometimes, or always or more often if that works for you. It works so well for my husband and me.

My grandfather said it was the success to their 60 years of marriage. He had the big bed so grandma could "visit" when she wanted

im very light sleeper, i could never imagine sharing a bed with a partner, occasionally i've stayed over obviously but i dont think i could do that in a long term space.

So true! Same with me & my husband. We shared a wardrobe for a couple of years when we were renting a tiny space. It was so hard on both of us because I have OCD and my husband is organized in his own way but mine was at a complete different level when it comes to organizing so when we bought our first house. We both wanted a wardrobe of our own and not interfere with each others stuff. Also sometimes we sleep in different rooms because I love watching a horror, thriller movie on a weekend with popcorn on my bed late at night and he loves watching his football match, cricket and other sports so we have our me time so that way we are giving each other some space & doing what we love & enjoy doing rather than having this silly argument about what we're going to watch. Lol 😁 also we are now parents and it still works for us both to be by ourselves sometimes and have some quiet time ⏲

@@alittlebitofdeepa7573I get horrified looks when I tell people this! I keep his work uniforms in my closet so we still see each other in the morning. We can have sleepovers whenever we want! The rest of the time we get the best sleep, stretched out in a cool bed. In an organized (or not) to our own taste room. It all started when I got addicted to sleeping in the recliner. I call it the CFH- Chair from hell. It sucks you in 😅 then he claimed rhe CFH when I got us a new mattress he ended up not liking. When we bought our house we got a 3 bedroom so we could have our own spaces. And neither of us think twice about it bc we’re secure I guess. I love the sleepovers 😊 and my husband! AND my own bed/space!

Dont have money for that

Benji: "I think Chris would like it if he had a space of his own to decorate, since I have consumed our bedroom with plants" Also Benji: "I have wanted to give this plant a bit more light, so I think this is the perfect spot for it" P.S. I'm rooting for Chris's room to be filled with plants too😈

I’m so happy to see Chris’s room taking shape. Looking so good. That’s Theo is really digging the rug. Feisty little man. Thank you for the video Benji 😊

this comment made me happy

Casterly is very good. I often times feel that IKEA is "too common" and overpriced for the material they use for furniture. Solid wood will last a lifetime. For the runner rug, I think if you put potted plants in the corner will help to settle in the rug to the hallway. You guys need larger artworks. Big walls need big artworks. I am so happy to see Chris again in this video. He's so beautiful. Tell him to upload book reviews again.

Having separate bathrooms is awesome!!

Yes no matter how much we love our partners separate beds doesn't hurt. I sleep better on my own lol plus we all need our own space Trust and understanding plays a big part in any relationship !! Love all your plants I have an amazing garden plus my ex and I live together and he is a gardener So Garden is wonderful have 5 Glasshouses and a Tarn in the back garden as well !!

it’s a nice day today where i live so i’m sitting in the sun and crocheting while watching this video :] the vibes are very nice, thank you for making such lovely content !!!

Benji plant videos always have the best aesthetic. So relaxing and nice to watch ❤

Yeees! Let’s normalize separate bedrooms! 🎉

​@@cestlavie777Weird is a state of mind. Once you realise we evolved from monkeys, everything (and therefore nothing) becomes weird.

I love your little family, there's such a wholesome vibe emanating from this video, and I am absolutely living for it. Everything looks absolutely stupendous, both of you have such a good sense of taste.

I'm really having a hard time decluttering, but watching videos like Benji's, it just gives me this spark to try again.✨

the purest joy of not having to wait for ur boyfriend to finish using the bathroom

The entry way table looks so,like the telephone tables of the past. When your only phone way a land line one in the hall , they had a drawer for the local,telephone directory and a soft seat .

My partner and I did the same thing g when our roomates moved out. That was two years ago and now I wouldn't have it any other way! It's so lovely to have your own space. Not be woken up by someone else's alarm or snores. Having your own space is so nice

I love Korean patchwork!!! I have fabrics to make curtains like this.

I love seeing videos like this. Everyone has such different styles and key points when designing something and even if that was cliche I think it’s very interesting. ☺️

Well done Simon and Brom. I love the French feature walls in your daughter’s room. Looks amazing and it brings Character to the room. Enjoy your renovation and keep up the good work. ❤👋😊💚🥰

I love Chris' room, so cute. That curtain is a dream

omg I love seeing another couple that has separate bedrooms! It's a great way to go :) I'm a new subscriber!

I love watching the thought process behind your choices, it’s so neat!!

I’m obsessed with your lamp choices for your home. They’re all so beautiful 🤍

Your home is super interesting which is a huge compliment in my opinion. I am sure your guests love looking at everything.

The curtain makes the light in the room very pleasant. And I love that walnut cabinet you got from Castlery,

I‘m head over heels with how adorable the two of you are ❤

You two are sooo good for eachother! What a beautiful relationship!! ❤️

I am probably behind the times but I had never heard of castlery. I love the pieces you chose. I especially love the wool rug. Natural fibers feel the best and add understated luxury. Thank you for sharing and I will check them out.

Ahahaha really appreciate the campy slay sign 💁🏼‍♀️

Ok. Thanks for letting me know. Enjoy your new room Chris. Can't wait to see your videos. I enjoy both of you.

love chris' standing book shelf with the lamp and your photo frame there!

it must be so nice to have place that is truly your own. Your interior decor style reminds me of my childhood home so with the light wooden furniture and neutral fabrics. I am living vicariously through your apartment makeover videos right now because i am currently living in a really cramped apartment (with too much stuff lol). Taking bits of inspiration for the far future.

This is genuinely my dream. I've always had my very own room, so why would I want to change that just because I live with someone? I 100% believe that a lot of relationships would be way happier and healthier if people would just let go of societal expectations and live in a way that makes them happy. And a lot of people would be way happier if they had a room of their own.

awh Chris looks so happy

One receives such positive vibes of your home through your videos. All the best to you both.

I genuinely love your videos. They give me a certain sense of peace and calm.

I Just discovered channel since i;m really into interior design but found myself staying through a couple of videos just because you have such a calming presence, a calm space you've created as well.

Love the vibe of your dwelling

Benji I really love this series, hope to see more. You have a very unique style, also so happy for Chris´s room!

Your voice is so relaxing its like ASMR .so soothing and relaxing.

Theo enjoying the new carpet lol.. sooo cute!

These guys are living the life

What a treat for that furniture 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Wow, wish I had known about Castlery when I was furniture shopping last year! I really like the style - it's all understated - so it lets you add some color and patterns in accessories. Dang!

"Look at the little rat"😂😂😂I call my small dog that lol

You should be a interior decorator ben! You really have great taste and seems so organic You know really what stuff goes with what, definitely makes a good career for you. 👍😁

Chris’s room looks so nice , I just love the bed and the cabinet with those fancy multi track doors 😍👏💚🌿 The whole apt is looking really awesome and I’m so happy for you both and precious little Theo eating peas too funny and adorable I love snap peas too Theo yum 😋!

You are so talented and gentle ❤ Congrats on 5 years ❤

The room looks great. Also Theo is just so cute omg

I love the bed so much! I love the vibe of the entire room, looking forward to the process!🫶🤍

i wish benji could decorate my room. your whole apartment is just stunning😱😱

I could listen to you all day. So calming and interesting :)

Love this type of content from you!!

i LOVE his room, also i visited leaf and vine and saw your philo poster! It was so cool and the plants there were amazing

That entry bench is a copy of a telephone seat used in the days when we had a home phone. The space under the bench was for telephone directory.

Ahh you have a fern tree behind you on your balcony! I have one and its my favorite plant. The apartment is looking great.

Since Theo loves the rug, maybe use the little one for his personal space 😊

Really enjoyed this video, loved the room makeover .

11:08 I’ll just put it back where it came from “the street” idk why I laughed a lot with that comment 😂😂 but anyways I love your videos benji keep up the great work :))

Looking great!! Hey you should do a video about the panels you have in your bathroom to hang plants . I really like those ❤. All of your plants are gorgeous and you apartment is looking awesome!!! Congrats!!

Beautiful

Nice job Benji!

Hi Benji. Really love your decor style. Beautiful pieces

Loved this thank u

Pretty home 🏡 💓

Enjoyed this video, as I enjoy, all your videos. Your videos soothe my soul, if that makes any sense. Love Castlery furniture pieces. Very nice furniture, I’ve got to check them out. Thank you, Amy

Your pilea priorities made me laugh so hard. I love your plants and your space!

Hi Theo. Sunday nite vibes

Oooh .. he needs some things 😅 can’t wait to see the results

The bed head could go along the other wall, so it wouldn't block the window.

that dog is TINY i love him lmao goffy lil dog

I just moved into a much bigger house in West LA. Wife now has her own bathroom. And I have mine. We can use each other's. But we populate each with our own stuff. And we get to decorate our own way. It's verrrrrry civilized.

That's the happiest Chihuahua I have ever seen

you did so good! When I was longer I would have loved having my own space to sleep but nowadays I don't sleep well when he is around : )

Very nice,

i stan their relationshipppppppppptttttt

beautiful video...

I love this arrangement. To me it’s a healthy relationship. Everyone needs some space. Me and my spouse don’t sleep together and our friends finds it weird. I don’t bother to explain anymore to justify our choices. Let them have their own imagination.

I love it. It looks so cozy. Your whole apartment is cozy and warm and inviting. I just love it. (p.s. I can't wait to be able to get some passiflora from you!)

EARLY !!! omg im so happy !
