Literally came here to say the same. Love the whole aesthetic. But why is there nothing to stop someone rolling off the bed at night to their death (or serious injury)? Installing some kind of knee or even shin height netting or railing would be a step in the right direction.

Yeah, that was my first thought! I'd be tripping my way to certain death on that little loft path. But otherwise, a great, livable apartment -- cozy and practical and personal.

As someone who loves Never Too Small, I'm happy to see the Philippines showcased, featuring a style of home design that diverges from the typical modern condo aesthetic. It's truly refreshing to witness this alternative approach. Hats off to the architect behind it all!

I love how warm, cosy and inspiring it feels. The only thing I would change is some railing on the upper level for safety

I think I fell from the loft 5 times just watching this video:'D Great design and a lovely video though:)

So happy to see a home in the Philippines be featured, that doesn't look like the stereotypical condo style! Also, I see your copy of Some People Need Killing! Yesss

Broker from Manila here, and please feature more small homes here in Metro Manila! There are a ton of beautiful spaces here

This is one of my favorites to date. Brilliant use of space, the apartment feels so much bigger than just 258 square feet.

I am in awe. This is an incredible apartment. They really made the most out of this space and it is such an upgrade compared to the original. Moving the door of the bathroom to create a larger kitchen, adding a loft to make the most of that height, all the storage integrated… and it is so cozy, comfortable and absolutely perfect for a young person/couple! 10/10 would live there!

Be still my heart! B612 as the inspiration - absolutely genius. What a space made with rich imagination, romance, soul, and such fun creativity. This is one of the most genuinely heartfelt designs this channel has featured. Bravo.

warm, inviting, and full of lovely art. this is the sort of homes that i love! hope JP will make many wonderful memories in it

So clean and at the same time homey.

Id added a ventilation possibility for under the mattrass to avoid a molded mattrass and wood floor. But the apartment feels so modern yet cosy and curated to me! Beautiful!

@@Roedism I only encounter molds during the rainy season. Many Filipinos sleep with their mattress directly on the floor (for years) & they don't get health problems due to that. (high blood, diabetes, pollution, etc =yes) I think Filipinos are just more hardy. Lol.

I don't usually like bed platforms, but this one is surprisingly roomy. However, it needs a guard rail.

I love how these feels easy to live in. Decent and easy storage, nothing really needs to be constantly tidied and folded away in order to do something else. It feels really comfortable to function in. There are some things I'd personally struggle with (e.g. the narrowness of the bathroom or the loft areas without barriers), but it's beautifully and thoughtfully designed for this person.

I love what has been done with less than 30m2. Clever but cosy as well. My only issue is that I would not like to go up and down a ladder and definitely want a barrier along the walkway to bedroom. That bedroom/library space is particularly pleasing.

i lived in an apt with this square footage in greenwich village for many yrs and am in love with this apt! the aesthetically beautiful and thoughtful storage is so key to being able to have a home that's calm yet filled with personality. not every architect really thinks about how a space will be lived in but it's so clear that from the start of the project, this was designed with every aspect of the client's life in mind and obviously the client has great taste too. i'm so glad these two met and together created a work of art. just lovely.

I love how there's so much personality that it truly feels like a home. The wood made the space feel so warm and "filled" too. Like, not just some bare white walls and and boring furniture for "minimalism", even his counter stools are interesting. This is modern minimalism done right.

At this point we need to address the volume of the apartment. Because this will never be relatable to a normal 24m2 😭

What an inviting, calm space. Lovely dog too ❤

Love this space. The idea of painting the plywood white at the bottom is genius, yet the wood colour adds so much warmth and creates a unity throughout. His artwork is the bonus.The amount of storage is great. Great job!!!

Love the design and the art!! Just one thing, for a 49yr old woman like me, it'd be very difficult to climb that ladder for my age 😁 Maybe a more suitable stairs for older people will be thankful 😃 Still, love the apartment!!

If you know of someone who is a senior citizen and designing for themselves versus a younger client, encourage them to submit their completed project for consideration.

Love the warmth, colours and textures of the room. I’d be freaked out by that ladder and walkways with no railings. Perhaps a ship’s ladder, which incorporates handhold slots into the design, might be safer.

as a long time NTS fan, this makes me so happy to see a space nestled at the heart of my country PH.

filming in such small space is another challenge, hats off to the production team!

Everything about this apartment is amazing! The layout and the materials used add a unique character to the space

An apartment where you can actually live! Beautiful table on the middle of the space. Inspiring place, congrats!

really beautiful! functional, cozy, it's an actually tiny space but doesn't look cramped at all - just perfect!!

DIREK JP!! DREAM COME TRUE!!

The white band in the walls looks amazing, I don’t know if it helps quth the perception of space or any technical stuff, but sure looks great with the wood surface. The distribution is really good even if I would have a bigger space for the desk and I always wonder how dangerous these kind of stairs can be, or impossible to use if you get home with some fracture or a bit drunk 🤣

This apartment has so much personality I love it💕

So many great details. Love the floor, and the white level below and the pale wood above.

What a great transformation! I love this space!

Wow, it pushed through Direk JP 🤘 Nicely done, can't believe it's only 24sqm ♥

Been anticipating this one and was not dissapointed. I love the use of stained and painted wood for the space!

The unit feels warm, cozy, compact, homey and interesting! The warmth of the wood, the cool cement floor, the strategic lighting and the colorful pops of art are indeed interesting!

What an amazing use of space. I love it.

What a lovely and cosy little space!

I love how cozy the place looks and feels. Usually condos are so generic but this one has its own personality. ALSO! That pup is cute AF 🥰

Amazing space planning! The use of a lot of wood gave the condo unit a lot of warmth. I love that in such a small space, a sleeping loft was added for separation and privacy. It's ideal for a single young person.

I like it. It's the right amount of everything -- clean lines; spacious; well-designed; perfectly executed; and modern, but not pretentious. Most importantly, it's tailored and feels lived-in. 👌🏾 Thanks for another solid feature, Never Too Small.

That bedroom is soooo cozy! And I love how much storage it has. Although if it was me, I would definitely need the railing to be much longer and maybe higher

This is really nice. I really like that the extensive plywood has some sheen to it. I get really fed up with the very depressing, cheap-looking, unfinished (?) ply that many architects have been obsessed with in recent years. The joinery here looks like it was made with love. The use of space is clever and storage-wise, they understood that their client is a man who has Stuff! This looks like an apartment you could actually live and entertain in. Oh, and that red painting in the kitchen is delicious.
