Central cube sets Paris micro-flat into work/living/rest modes
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
To create more functionality in a 16-square-meter (172-square-foot) Paris apartment, designers Elisa Nobile and Enrico Bona created a custom cabinet containing two beds, a desk, a kitchen and a bathroom with an unfolding shower. The furniture cube leaves more than half the space clear so it can be used as a rotating bedroom, dining room or home office: a secondary table descends from an adjacent wall offering space for the owner’s model-making interests.
The designers (EDB Studio) wanted the cube’s multifunctionality to remain hidden so they avoided handles, instead relying on a push/pull system to unfold furniture or open cabinets. To prevent fingerprints on the white cabinets, they used a nano-tech material called Fenix which if scratched can be repaired by applying heat.
Located in Paris’ fashionable Marais district- for centuries home to French royalty- the apartment features the limestone walls typical of the neighborhood (which the designers uncovered) and an exposed wooden-beamed ceiling.

Because it's the bottom of the bed they need a sturdy latch to make sure the table doesn't fall down while the bed is opening or being slept on. There are probably alternative latches that could have used, but the builder chose this one.

Regarding the fact that „the client“ asked for two single beds instead of one large one - and the design of the Paris map with it‘s bouroughs and the red dot indicating the location of the apartment - I wonder if this is an actual apartment owned and used by the client himself - or if it‘s only a Air BnB Appartment or some kind of Hotel room for short term rent? For me it seems too minimalistic with not much personality for an actual „real“ longterm appartment. 🤷🏽♂️

Respected architect and Fair Company owner avoids free advertising by lying about ultra-quirky rental that appears empty except for one chair. She demonstrates that it's difficult to operate anything without practice, has a table big enough for the fake client plus 4 more chairless people, and nowhere for people less than 2 meters tall to put luggage. Such an obvious old Italian scam, spend a fortune renovating a 3rd floor walkup just to rent, design it so short people cannot deploy the beds, then remove all knobs and handles and hide the allen wrench to drive renters completely mad :)

It still is a new build, and she's just showing everythings functionality, it's up to the client/owner how they want to decorate the place But for me, the big table should've been on the other wall, for kitchen prep since counter space is zero to none

The apartment looks full and empty at the same time. I would have used some transformable furniture, like a bookshelf with a Murphy bed, a coffe table of adjustable height and a desk that turns to a bed. The kitchen should have been next to the window. The bathroom door should have been facing the hallway. Like someone else said not efficient use of verticle height. Some plants in the place would have also been good.

I agree with what Beverly has said. They could have built a double Murphy Bed on the wall where the big table is, with a table built in to fold down when needed from the same panel as the bed unit. Then they could have had the current beds wall as a bigger kitchen unit benefiting from daylight with the bathroom accessed from the corridor where the kitchen is currently. That would be a far better design IMO as the current kitchen is way too small to be remotely useable. That fridge was smaller than most hotel room fridges so totally impractical for storing any food. They could also have had a small comfy sofa on wheels which could be easily moved around to wherever needed.

It's funny how some people "know better" than the actual person that will use that space XD kitchen is ok if you would think that it is second home for someone - can take pre-made food or just eat out. I live in 30 square apartment and I wish I have that nice bathroom and if that place will be used only part-time plants will die (assuming that owner even like plants) :/

Kirsten, you have been bringing us fascinating videos for years of people creating unique housing solutions. Thank you so much for sharing the incredible, clever, and thoughtful work of Elisa Nobile and Enrico Bona from the EDB Studio. I have seen a few interesting combinations of "magic boxes" where unseen doors are opened or pulled down to reveal elemental tools of a home. Their solutions is many steps beyond all of them, but one, of the other examples, and they were very good. I absolutely love their effort to capture the history of the stone and the Marais district thought restoration of the limestone pillars and wall sections. Plus, the shower stall is complete genius. What a gift their effort has been to the home and the owners!
Foldable large dining table, and the restored limestone, windows & “collapsable” shower are my favorite features
I’m gay and I’m still stuck on that real estate agents curves! You go girl 👏🏾
This is a pretty clever way to fit everything needed for an apartment into the size of a typical American bedroom. What's particularly impressive is that they didn't have to loft anything to do it, all of this would fit within a standard ceiling height.

@A She mentioned that the owner wanted the two bed option. They could definitely move the kitchen to another area, and have a better bed and tables. But I think the owner just wanted a place to stay whenever they visit the city. They may not want a very functional kitchen as they have easy access to great restaurants. You can make any place feels "homely" by adding items that have value to you. No matter the size or the configuration of a home, it all depends on the owner to make it cozy.

This tiny flat is great. A lot of thought has gone into maximizing the limited space and it's very effective. Clean lines, no clutter.
Magnifique rénovation et optimisation de l'espace. Il y a beaucoup de petites surfaces de ce type dans le coeur de Paris. 👍

i love what you did with the shower.... the whole unit is well-thought of, and having a pseudo balcony is actually great... nothing wasted, very ingenius!
Apart from the high ceilings, my lounge is bigger than this. If I was a workaholic with money who ate out every night it would be ideal. What we need is better transportation so that we can live outside of the city but nip in and out whenever we feel like it. However, as an experiment in maximising space I like it. I love the idea of multi purposing space. I have a kitchen diner of 25sqm and a separate dining room of 15sqm. In reality the dining room only gets used if we have a birthday, Xmas or get together of more than 6 people. I like the idea of being able to fold away or hide in some fashion the dining table and use the room for something else. We have a spare bedroom with a king size bed in it. This room is only used when family or guests stay and so is unused or a dumping ground most of the year. If it were not for cost I’d have a fold up bed.
Ive seen motel hotel rooms more comfy then this plain cube.. Need some plants trees ,flowers to brighten it Up The kitchen is awfuly small As is the fridge The cube shoulve had a big Window Or two So you get natural light in the Kitchen and Bathroom too.

Plants usually don't come with the apartment so maybe the owner/renter will get some when he moves in

Tru Bru.....this is not an apartment. It's just a very expensive prison cell.
«Yass», «Yass» ☺️ L❤️VE this flat, great details, especially 💚 the old, beautiful, wooden beams, the limestone wall and tall, old windows w/wrought iron details against the minimalistic cabinets, murphy beds, tables etc. BEAUTIFUL❣️
Limestone, lovely windows, wooden ceiling, great street, location and mdf everywhere inside. Surly you could have used natural materials for a better quality finish? Ingenius design though but soulless.
Came for the apartment, stayed because of the backyard.
6:16 woah nice door
Smart design for the shower. It's giving me ideas for my own place! The two big windows really help to make the space not look so cramped.
Beautiful and creative, I love it! I love the simplicity and brightness
My bunk in basic training was larger than those beds. Also, shorty is thick! 😍

I think the shower solution was my favourite thing about this little house. Very smart!
Very cute! Love the utilization of such a minimal amount of space. I still see myself getting kinda chlostraphobic though.

The idea with the shower is really great!!
I would live in Paris in that wonderful studio in a heartbeat. You showed it will. To bad Los Angeles can't built a building for the homeless with all of these studios.
TBH the designer was far more beautiful than the apartment.
The barbies I played with when I was younger had a bigger fridge than that.
Really very nice 👍👍 I love the small place too, I do not like the many purposes .. I liked the design ..👍👍I encourage you to continue this unique creativity
these apartments, are good for airbnb, or hotel style renting, for people who come and go or stay small portion of time. For long term living as some1 said bellow it's impersonal, not cozy. Those spaces were designed in another era for other uses, 1 or 2 people max, they were not designed to have office spaces and the whole shabang in them . And btw what a fine bubble this lady has, God bless.
Does someone actually live here? It seems functional, but can’t imagine people actually live in this.

looks like an expensive air bnb. Or for someone who is really rich (i mean you have to be, in that area fof paris an appartment is worth millions.) and only lives there from time to time and really uses it to sleep and eats out mostly and is out doin activities. Definitely not a place to stay a lot inside

Well we really like this little apartment. We think it's great that people can create a lot of different areas in one big room. Totally cool.

Ostkreutz Rox she speaks a different language. In case you didn’t notice
The house is cool, no doubt, but the lass is of a beauty that is beyond words 😍
What an amazing space she has created! Wow
the Designer clearly knows what she's talking about but I think there was definitely a language barrier making it harder to communicate some concepts and ideas.
