@@robyn5469 Kudos to you, that was all very cleverly done. The kitchen sink was particularly interesting, it makes the counter seem anything but "small". .... but I would have enjoyed this more if I didn't know what Chinese speculators were doing to prices there, and that living like that might not be a choice for much longer.

This is a very nice space! I notice in the before, there was a hot water heater in the loft area but, in the after, it was gone. Is it still there or, where was it moved to?

I love that she mentioned the potential downsides to the loft instead of just making it seem like the best place ever created. It is a nice place. I think it works for a lot of people. But some of the features could be deal-breakers.

Right? A lot of these designs tend to feature spaces/ladders that seem to be designed for people who have to be pretty spry and/or able-bodied to enjoy using them. So having a more balanced view presented is a good thing

I'm glad you mentioned that lofts with stairs aren't safe or accessible for every person. Love this little apartment and featuring more urban design ideas!

They did a lot with such a small space.

The brick is gorgeous

I’d put an L shape metal stair case in the wasted hall area and it would be safer. But it is nicely done.

At the very least, the ladder should have a rail on one side. It would make it safer and more practical, especially at night.

@kevintan96

Was thinking the kitchen & bathroom should be shifted towards the living room and that stairs can happen right at the door. The steps can double up as shoes storage as well & steps to wear ur shoes before u leave the house. Safer than ladders.

@Erwan Compes Lol...maybe so. Trust me though, it's not necessarily about being a weakling. When you get to a certain age, it's about balance. When you're 50 or 60 something (or an unwell or tipsy 20 year old), try coming down that ladder in the dark at 3:00 AM. Fun times.

I would definitely live there. Beautiful and comfortable!

Even without the loft, you could comfortably fit a bed there. I wouldn't be able to climb those stairs every day, but it does look wonderful

for me this is the most beautiful apartment l ever saw , im inloved with this space and colors

What a fabulous apartment. With those ceilings, beautiful windows and the old exposed brick you cant go wrong. I m not convinced that the ornate style of the headboard isn’t a bit conflicted. A colourful padded pallet style headboard would be more in keeping. Overall one of the best small apartments i have seen. Well done and well filmed. Thank you for sharing.

Right? I hate these HUGE American kitchens! It's almost like, the more space, the bigger the mess, a small kitchen makes you clean up as you go. And why does a 2-3 person home need so many dishes? The worst was when I had a roommate bring home a whole case of pint glasses! We used em right out the box, then had no where to put them after washing.

Some have huge American families or parties to fill them. When 11 people counts as a small family gathering, which grows as your nieces and nephews bring dates or friends, I see why you might need a larger kitchen. Especially if you regularly throw house parties of a similar size for your friends. But if you're just cooking for 3 people all but 2 days a year, the giant kitchen is unnecessary. Especially if you live in an urban area where Thanksgiving & Christmas catering is readily available.

She’s from Canada. And houses in the US have bigger kitchens because they’re typically newer. And with more and more kitchen appliances coming out, there has to be space for everything. I know a lot of UK homes are older, so it makes sense that the kitchens are smaller. Older American homes have small kitchens too. I lived in a house built in the 1920’s and I hated the kitchen so much. So tiny. So when I moved into my home, I made sure to have a ton of counter space :).

I really enjoyed this tour and hope you do more of these stories. Small space living in different areas is so interesting. Urban versus rural and static versus mobile are key issues to explore depending on individual needs. I also appreciate that you didn't turn this tour into an obnoxious Airbnb commercial as so many channels are doing.

Beautifully decorated and so functional! Like the large window à the light coming in the condo. Vintage can create a special atmosphere and give a special touch. Of course the king size beg is taking a lot of space maybe too much. The living is great, this green paint pointing upstairs really add space Impression. Love the counter facing living room so you can cook and talk without feeling alone in your kitchen. Great filming also !

Every corner is functional, love the space!

Love it. It is possible to put floor to ceiling shelving in wasted space near the door. Yes, it will be very shallow. However, if you have a lot a paperback book it is perfect. Also, you can put smaller items. And, maybe you can get some boxes that fit. I am more than happy to take a photo of what we have done if it's helpful.

Great use of space plus it’s beautiful!

I'd live in one in a heart beat. - The concept of it being small, but also pretty much having everything you need and an example like this one in the video, it pretty much doesn't compromise anything.. It's got a decent kitchen, good size bedroom, and a good size living area... The only thing I'd probably add or most want would be a desk and chair to work on, but you could even downsize the bed to add that in. Lot less cleaning and easier to maintain when you think of the positives

Stunning!!!

Nicely done! The owners used their space well! Also wonderfully filmed and presented!

Beautiful tiny apartment

This is very nice. One suggestion might be a different type of bed upstairs. My wife is Korean so I have experienced a lot of very low beds or even almost a mat on the floor.

Of COURSE it's an AirBNB. They are really taking over, aren't they? It definitely impacts the people living in a particular city looking for a rental as well. There should be a cap on how many a city can have. The people who live there actually need to be able to find a place to live. That said, this is a really lovely space. I'd replace the green wall with a bookshelf. The loft bedroom is a great idea, I'd love to have that option where I'm at. Side note...that looks like a Parlor Palm hanging in the bathroom. It will need more light in the long run (needs bright, indirect light).

Thanks for sharing. Colourful living hall n with a bit of touch up the kitchen can be better though small. Nice tall windows!

Very very interesting 👏
