As someone who resides in a 500 sq ft studio with a ton of natural lighting, I love videos like this! You can absolutely create smaller spaces with visual interest, character, and function.

More common than most think. As a New Yorker, I can’t tell you how many of these well decorated/curated tiny apartments I’ve seen over the many years.

Oh wow... so cool and beautiful. I share his aesthetic, and that living room reminds me so much of my own. Hopefully more people will adopt this colorful and eclectic style in 2024 and beyond. And he's right... "home" is exactly the vibe I get from his studio; and isn't that exactly what everyone's home should do? Bravo.

350 sq ft in NYC is my studio. Keith does such an engaging description of his patterns, colors, punctuations to attract the eye, will watch numerous times and incorporate much of his work into my tiny maximalist studio. Thanks Keith, very interesting presentation.

Might have run the wallpaper over the cabinets and fridge to not break up the space so much. Wondering where all your clothes and shoes are... Great job! My favorite place has been a 600 sq ft efficiency. Not sure I wouldn't get tired of such a small space no matter how beautiful. Generally, for me, the deal breaker is that I would need a terrace or balcony. Regards from Indiana!

Really loved the single bed--disguised as sofa. Makes the space look like there's a bedroom somewhere in the apartment.

Adore this space.😊
Amazing design, especially for 200 square feet. I love the green velvety fabric choice for the twin bed that doubles as a sofa. I live in an 800 square foot place but the bedrooms are small. I did the same thing, instead of a bed I bought a chair that turns into a bed so I could have the appearance of a much larger room that doesn't look like a bedroom. A twin bed doubling as a sofa would have been a much better option as the chair bed isn't that comfortable. lol 🧚♀

Disguising the bed is the best solution to maximising the space of a small apartment..Have done this myself and it works..the layering of your art and decor brings warmth and loads of interest..wondering where is the closet space is..guessing it’s well hidden..love the green velvet of the bed/sofa…colour in a well lite space makes for a much happier nest.
What a plather of knowledge he must have in his portfolio of design and detail... clearly for him to execute the most beautiful calming intimate space which to the viewer speaks volumes of comfort, texture and a sense of homeliness and calm. Well done!

Would it be possible to find out about the fabric on the sofa bed? The colour, texture and sheen are gorgeous. I've always wondered which fibre makes the best velvet for a high-use seat. The apartment is the perfect blend of comfortable living and good taste.

Great question... NYC is not an inexpensive place to live! We love how Keith maximized every square foot!
i just could not imagine not having a bedroom, wonder what he pays for rent
Beautiful apartment, but where does he eat his meals?

Great question... the kitchen counter doubles as a nice spot for meals so maybe there!
Bathroom? Be a great Air BnB rental if NYC hadn't cracked down on it..

To many objects, books etc that it’s hard to see anything in this tiny space

Beautiful but a little cluttered for the tiny space. Feel little overwhelming.
eewwww!
You should absolutely be in love with your own space, and none need be the same. Diversity is the sun. For me, which is meaningless to anyone else, I'll pass on every aspect. Nothing pops to my own eye or better, my heart. It seems a rehearsed space, a typical try. Somewhere scaling the curb of Alex Papachristidis and my attention is held.
Too many things in such a small space. The wall paaper and funiture is beautiful but just too many books and knick-knacks.
