Hi Daniel, I'm Dominic. I just wanted to thank you that you spent time with coming up with these ideas. I really like the 2nd option, I always wanted a loft bed and I don't mind doing some DIY. I know that this room has a lot of potential, but I'm not that creative to make a 3D model about it. So thank you for making it for me :)
Also, going through the comments, I wrote down some cool ideas, so thank you all
Hope it works out and that you enjoy the revamp in the end!
@@kjw79 Oh it'll, I already have some friends helping me and I didn't even started :)
Please keep us posted and good luck! :)
@@Elvendertig1130 thanks :)
Hi Daniel, I'm a little concerned with 3 things:
1. Your eyes:
- - - - - - - - - - -
---> In fact, eyes use their muscles to focus to close objects, but relaxe when focusing on farther ones.
Vue the space you're living in, if you have this setup for a long term one, your eyes would suffer and soon you would have vision issues.
However, another way to remedes to this is to have big mirrors that will increase virtually the room.
2. Your lungs and Brain:
- - - - - - - - - - -
---> With less space for oxygene to circulate, your brain would suffocate and your organes suffer from this.
You better find time to go out into parks often or find ways to get your space open with windows.
3. Your Bons & Teeth:
- - - - - - - - - - -
---> Without the sun entering your space as well, you would have vitamin D deficiency, if you don't go out often, which will soften your bones and your teeth.
I know it could happen that you save for a better life, but this organization for a long time would not be healthy for you.
All the best for you. God bless

As someone who is looking to do their own DIY renovation, it would be really great to see a tutorial video of how you create these layouts on Sketchup and how you create such photorealistic renders! Keep up the amazing work👌
Go to Architecture school! 😅 kidding, there’s a lot of SketchUp and rendering tutorials on RUclips
You can do it just withh a paper. I moved a lot in my childhood and early adult time. probably 12 times or so.
I always take a paper, measure out my room, scale it down and draw it on the paper correctly. Then i draw all my furniture, cabinets and couch and all that on another paper, scaled doen with the right amount again and cut them out. With this you can play with it, where everything fits perfectly and you can use your imagination.
It works very well and you can do this with a whole apartment.
My friends and my family told me quite often that my apartment looks very well, like feng shui even though i dont have any clue how the rules are in feng shui. I guess thats just some rules we all have in us somehow when we are able to think and play with our apartment and with our imagination.
You can make perfect use of every room and everything you have. Its very easy and a lot of fun when you anticipate making a nice room.
You walk through your room, try to come up with new ideas, look if it fits with your scaled down drawing and walk again and imagine how it looks.
I highly recommend it.
No knowledge is needed. Just you and you room. And a paper...
I'd encourage you to look into Daniel's Nebula channel. He's got plenty of full-length videos there on his SketchUp remodels and you can follow along. Other than that, SketchUp is all about practice and mastering your modeling technique, so I'd start there. Learn the essentials: components, groups, tags (layers), axis, planes, perspective, and so on. Once you REALLY get the basics of SketchUp down, then you can move to rendering. Rendering requires you to have your lightning fundamentals down. See how light reacts to your environment and it'll help you when modeling. Last but not least, use high quality materials when rendering as it'll make your image look clean and crisp.
Google sketchup is not really that hard to use. I have no 3d skills at all, but using a measuring tape to get the parameters then building it out isn't that hard. Using something like grafting paper (the stuff with squares instead of lines) to draw it out roughly first helps too so you can visualize.
He talks about his work process in the "architect redesigns" video where the space has only two small skylights, features an exercise bike and he painted the walls green.
Oh my god, this is not only hands down my favorite episode of the "Redesigns" series, but most likely my favorite video on your channel (I watched almost all of them). I am so pleased that you chose such an unfriendly living space because that's the reality for the majority of the people out there. I know it looks not as good as showing tech gadgets and redesigned guest rooms/studio rooms, but it's so much more useful to so many more people. I hope Dominic will get good inspiration from your work and I'm sure that this will be useful to so many other people to improve their living situation. Finally I also loved your honesty in the conclusion, admitting that you're not able to stick to such a low budget, yet you still decided to pick this project rather than something else to show in your channel. Kudos.
Hi, as somebody who has moved a lot to small rooms during the last couple of years, I found that these videos are really helpful to understand how to organise small spaces to make them liveable and enjoyable. I found that good lighting in the room really has an impact on making it confortable, so what about a video where you focus on lighting?
there's a japanese youtuber called Tommy / Tokyo Simple Life (@tokyosimplelife) where he discusses about lighting and making your space feel cozy even though it's small. He has english subtitles so you can understand what he's saying :)
@@pachi1014 thank you for the recommendation!
You can turn anything to pure gold with your touch. All your works are beautiful.
I can't explain how much my mind have been running (positively) wild when it comes to interior design, thanks to this series. The amount of people you inspire to try new design ideas and principles, is crazy, Daniel. Thank you for the job you're doing!
I don’t normally comment but had to say that this has been my favourite RUclips series for quite some time now. Keep it up!!
Really nice to see someone dealing with the not shiny huge and expensive living places. Great work.
I chose the last option. Bigger size bed is always super, plus under the bed you can have storage and hangers on wheels. I think he spents alot of time gaming and studying, so bigger study table and so much more storage above study table makes so much sense.
I love the elevated loft bed - the one that’s set a bit lower, so you can sit up in bed. Some useful storage underneath, and the desk set up looks great in the entrance area. 👍👍
I absolutely love this series! One thing I would love to see is when putting in measurements in the video, could you also add metric ones too? for example 7ft/2,13m ?
This request sounded like mission impossible, tiny budget, tiny room. I can’t believe you pulled it off,. Incredible!!
Only started the video but was so sure you would switch the placement of the bed and the desk as you would need to squeeze beside beside the bed every time you would exit the room. *Edit* After watching the video I think I like the lower loft bed option, maybe not all the cabinets above the desk and maybe use a bit of that space to place a wardrobe could also be an option, Great video Daniel, a real challenge!
I couldn't live in a space like that, especially wihtout any windows
I’ve never seen anything like it since it’s an illegal bedroom at least in the US. You’re required to have a certain window size & square footage to be a legal bedroom…this is a hallway
This is not a good space for a young man.
@@HomeWorkouts_LSI thought it was illegal everywhere ngl
@@HomeWorkouts_LSI think it should be legal tho, bc it may be the only thing someone can afford, and it's better than being homeless.
@@SK-fy8dlwhat shouldn't be legal is to force people to live in places like these. This "room" is located in a city, the renter probably pays a lot for this "space" so this is not even an option for homeless people.
I was hesitant to watch this one, but, please keep doing this kind of vids, it's like an excercise for the mind to think about possibilities, as architecture to me is about solving problems, not just the asthetics.
Love seeing your creativity at work with these challenging spaces and rooms! Great video :)
Awesome thoughts on designing a challenging space in 3 different ways. You never fail to impress.
Honestly either of the loft bed options were my favorite. It seemed the best use of space and makes it feel more contemporary and comes inline with more urban thinking
I would also raise the bed and put storage underneath, however I would create a step up (the stairs having storage) to a tatami style area with a ledge to become a desk when sitting on the raised area and a closet/trapdoor space to store a futon. Of course that would be for me to use the space. I'd also put shoji style door patterns on the far wall to help the space be more serene- maybe even opening to an optional mirror. Then towards the front I would do a wall table which can collapse and shelving for kitchen stuff and a plant that doesn't need sunlight.
Brilliant ideas
Thanks for the ideas :)
@@danieltitchener01 Uh, thank you but I don't know how to do that.
The amazing thing about ikea furniture and budget ist that you can thrift so many ikea things in your neighbourhood!
So far your best video in terms of the format, animation, pacing and budgeting after giving multiple possible ideas! Would love to see this style for the next redesign video!!
Watching your videos is truly enjoyable; you explain the process, how it starts, and give some tips that can be used in many places. Thank you
I’m dazzled by the options & creativity, lovely !!
I absolutely love the things you come up with
You're extremely talented. It always blows my mind how you're able to re-imagine a space. They're all pretty darn good. Personally, I love the second layout.
What a great remodel! I've been doing arch viz in blender for a couple years but your videos have really helped me improve my renders. So much creativity in these videos. Thanks!!
The sound effects in this video are really well thought out, love how far this channel has come
Love the loft bed option, and love your channel!
I just love your minds eye. You see it before you create it. I am so enjoying your videos.
This was possibly my favourite video in this series, so many options!
Love the thought process . I’m in construction and do value engineering all the time. You brought a different perspective in that budget limits creativity but allows for VE later
I love this series, keep sending this man more room entries to fix!!! ❤
Great job in such a small space! Love your videos.
always like your ideas to bring more space to look alive, good job man
Simply amazing Daniel. Love the videos.
I can't imagine someone is living there... it's so important to have natural light at home
Wow, it is impressive how even such a seemingly impossible mission was carried out so brilliantly ! I could have never thought of such soloution, cannot wait for more of these videos ! Btw I think you are a great architect and I really like all of your works very much and appreciate all the effort you put in these videos, especially considering how much of a difficult format this must be. I hope the best for you, and thank you for the content you bring !
The second half of the video really blows my mind. The loft bed idea is very cool and unexpted. Really interesting
Considering the limited space, here are some suggestions for your small room:
- Move the bed all the way in, and opt for a custom-built bed against the walls for noise reduction, space for a partner, a cozy corner, and added storage underneath.
- Choose a wall-attached, leg-free desk with underdesk storage to maximize floor space.
- Incorporate one office chair and a movable armchair near the door, serving as both seating and a coat hanger.
These adjustments create a practical, clutter-free, and cozy atmosphere while keeping costs down.
This gave me so many ideas for my tiny but cozy living space, thank youuuu
Perfect timing! I'm working on my shipping container design right now. It'll be a 45' studio apartment/workshop.
I like these videos about unique problems and their great solutions.
So many great ideas!!! I personally love the first option best… so the bed could double as a couch during the day. Love your videos, keep up the great work! ❤️❤️❤️
Such a pro video. Easy to watch. Impressed.
Your channel is my top favourite nowadays!
As per usual, excellent video, Daniel!
Amazing, clever work . Thank you
So glad your doing this one!
I love the loft bed and desk combo
really love these videos! keep it up man
Thank you, Daniel. You have helped me think outside the box in creating space in my home and future campervan. I want to run away from home when I have too much clutter around me, and being a person who has no discretionary funds to contract a professional for designing or building your show has helped tremendously.
Hi Danny this is Amit all the way from India. I am an aspiring minimalist. I find your solutions highly informative and inspirational. Congratulations for these great initiatives. Keep inspiring and enlightening us!!!
Ahhh yes, new vid to start the morning :D
These are really interesting options for this weird and challenging space. Even just painting everything white and adding lighting would make a big difference.
I love these videos!!
Amazing ideas in such a small space!
I thought of the loft bed first thing, positioned exactly, where you put it. (1st option) for the computer, again the exact same spot, under the bed, but, I would have placed the desk on the end wall. This eliminates the "squeeze in" to get to the desk, from the side. But the second idea, would be to turn the space under the loft bed, as small study area, or nook, with calming decor, a relaxed chair, and small table, or two. ( This way, he has a spot just for him, where he isn't at the computer/desk, nor in bed. The desk and closet, could still be by the front door. To cut down on noise, going in, or out. A heavy curtain, placed near the front door, to help eliminate noise. ( And depending on traffic, can slide the curtain shut, so people can't see in, when he's coming, or going. ( Would look like a wall, just a few feet, behind the entrance door) any wall that is blank, could have various wall mounted organization/ floating shelves.
Depending on how much storage he needs, the stairs can be fixed, to the bed, and storage can be built under the stairs. If he doesn't need that much storage, then the stairs can be removed, and set against the wall.
I actually see a lot of possibilities with this.
I like the third option the best. With the loft bed and clothing storage underneath and the bigger desk with cabinets above it in the front portion of the room.
Waw that's quite a challenging room
Greating from Germany, i enjoy your videos a lot, love them. I like the second Idea with the Loft Bed
Really love the loft bed idea :D I would go with that.
Thank you for the Ekbacken worktop hack I want a new desk and now i'll just re-use my existing alex stroage thingies and put the worktop on top and I'll have a great desk :D
Wow! Your videos inspire me everyday 😍❤️ I’m also planning to redo my room but was confused with what I need and how to do it
Genius, all of them genius!
Really cool video. and awesome rendering!
Great Video, It's True Design improves with budget or DIY
lov this type of videos
Always excited to see your solutions! Last option was the best for me. If noise was the reason for the original setup, I think that can be addressed with a headphone. The second could be irritating if you end up hitting your head every time you stand up.
The aspirational, third choice definitely feels very premium and desirable. The lowered lofted bed angles fairly nice at the room divider where one could potentially mount a modest smart tv... where he could stream shows and relax in bed. Under bed storage makes a lot of sense and could be concealed with mini curtains when not being accessed. Adding a bit of extra elegance and softness to the space. I love this series.
I'm writing down the ideas, thanks :)
Wow, this was a really difficult space, both in terms of dimensions and budget. You did a great job with the various alternatives. A couple of ideas I came up with was to make a mirror wall in the entrance and a murphy bed, perhaps combining the two concepts together with overhead storage (if you can deal with light construction, because swivel plates are quite cheap in hardware stores). You could also build a fake window in the office-area (using led-strips and a plastic diffusion layer) with a light white curtain in front of it. This would serve two purposes, make the space feel less "cave"-like and also dampen and dispersing sound waves (something the person is already doing less elegantly with acoustic panels). Ultimately I think the best idea is to move the storage and sleeping to the back, with the last loft alternative being the best one. Also, I would probably consider a narrower desk. because every cm you gain in your sitting area will make the space feel less cramped as an office. With a slim profile wall-mount for the monitor you can make do with 40-50cm deep desk.
Hmmm, I'll think about it, thanks :)
Best series ever. Btw my fav one was the 996+ one.
This looks awesome, my god!
I really like this small spaces theme! As working from home will continue to increase in importance, I think it would be really cool if you would try to design a small office space in a garden shed or something similar!
I LOVEE this
I’m not personally a fan of the white aesthetic but the loft idea is nice, having the bed out of the way is much better. I’d like a fold out stair/stepladder to the loft but I like the ideas overall and I’m a huge fan of small cozy well designed spaces as I just don’t need a lot of room to be happy 😊 great video
I like the 2nd option because I would prefer my sleeping area to be as far from the entry as possible. I wonder if the original layout was due to electrical constraints? I don't see evidence of any outlets or overhead light sources in the front room of this tiny space. As a student, the client may also be constrained in attaching anything to the walls, so the bed loft would have to be free-standing.
I really loved the workspace/ computer desk ideas you had. Great video! What Interior design software do you use ?
I would recommend checking second hand sites for the ikea pieces before buying them- their popularity means that they are often available second hand for much less.
ive been waitingg tooo longgggggggggggg ....finally
I see Daniel uploads, I click 👍
this is brillaint, loved the loft bed idea but how about a horizontal murphy bed? would love to see how that plays out in this space
love your vids
Very well thought out design here, especially the second one which I loved the most. One of the biggest problems of the design would be the ladder and the amount of storage near the bed.
One of the ideas I have is to use IKEA's cube storage as a staircase down to the floor as it would provide an easier way to go up and down and provide more storage for items near the bed. And a floating shelf could be added at the end of the bed for quick to access items like an alarm or phone. The floating shelf could be placed there through rod supports going to the ceiling.
Another one of my ideas which would be more custom and would disregard the staircase idea would be to find a wardrobe which when the door is open can have slats or steps installed into the door to act as a ladder to access the loft. This idea would also allow a storage space to be placed on top of the wardrobe for easy access of items from the bed, without going down.
So many ideas, I think It'll be good :)
Guess you nailed it again ... For me, it's the lower loft bed option.
this is absolutely genius.
At least where I live in Australia, I could source some of those items for cheaper than they are priced at Ikea. It would be a matter of waiting for sales. The other things is a lot of ikea pieces are available on Facebook market place and similar sites for significantly less cost. I think he could achieve the first option in his budget if he spread the transformation over a few months and was ready to paint some items to get them all uniform in color. If the furniture is covered in lacquer or plastic and expensive to paint because sanding and primer are required, he can get plain white peel and stick wall paper and cover the furniture in that. Instead of the round mirror at the entry he can also consider stick on mirror tiles which are very affordable on aliexpress. If they're applied well they look very nice. I think the overall impact of the space is what's worth focusing on.
need a tutorial on how to use sketchup! wow this is incredibly useful
wow. What a design challenge.
I think you can find used furniture on eBay or Facebook market space from IKEA. So it could be 500 or less or add more lamps.
I could imagine having a platform in the back part of the room with the desk on it and with the bed sliding out underneath. I also like the idea of having a futon that can be stowed away during the day.
Depending on how clean the carpet is, I’d get rid of the bed frame and put the mattress on the floor so you could lean it on it’s side when not in use.
Good work. Can we also all take a second to reevaluate the fact that we live in a world where we don't find it odd to imagine how best to live in shipping containers? I think we need to reflect on how we got in our little hamster cages and stop trying to optimise our little wheels and water dispensers.
My favorite is nr.2. 💯%.!
Favorite: last one
The wall mounted cupboard at the entry looks like it covers the electrical switchboard. Also looked like he'd covered over windows or openings with some kind of baffle material
If noise is a thing having the loft bed at the back and the desk under it is a great idea, but I also see using a sliding barn style door on that middle separation to separate the spaces for more noise reduction. Also I noticed that room had no options for food prep. Maybe a microwave cart with storage under it in the front room or something. Maybe even a place for a hotplate or something. Mot sure what his circumstances are for that.
Nice!
What would you say about the murphy bed in there at the far wall?
such great plans, I love when people are redesigning tiny areas. In Hungary you can get these much cheaper if you don't go to Ikea, choose Jysk, OBI or online shops for very similar items on lower prices. Also use marketplace, there a lot of good finds. But all in all I love the design you made for him, Liked the most, where the bigger table was put instead of the bed. In this case I would put the double bed on the floor and maybe add kitchen cabinets above it too for more clothes storage. But maybe he put the table to the inside for noise cancellation, seems like having a streaming set up on his desk where he uses a microphone and needs quiet.
Third option.
But there is also the option of a fold down bed from the wall along the long side. Cabinets above the on both sides as well.
