Moving the blinds to the outside is such a great idea. It makes the balcony part of the indoor living space, while still allowing the light to come through. This is my favorite feature of this renovation.
The bedroom floor is genius. The raising of it delineates it as a transition from the living space but the storage it provides is on another level (pardon the pun). Huge amount of truly functional storage for no loss of space.
I’ve seen this concept before but people have commented that, in practice, it’s annoying as dust and debris tends to fall through the cracks, either onto the lip or onto the stored items. Has anyone reading this used them without a problem?
@@ysbyttybedbug This is usually the case specially in tropical countries or beachside/humid areas. Dust will easily accumulate through the cracks and into the storage area. Just use a vacuum to clean the insides once a month. Also note that you need exterminators to fumigate the house for termites as the storage/bed area is dark and cool therefore a haven for termites. For the futon/foam, you need to air it out once a month to prevent mold from building up when inside the storage; A good ol' sun exposure will easily kill any bacteria. This design is what we did for our spare room and it looks amazing. The sheer amount of storage it provides is also a huge benefit. It's a bit more work in exchange for maximizing a space. Not too bad unless you really hate cleaning or just hire a cleaner if you're well off
I love the shades on the balcony. Such a simple concept I've never seen before that makes a huge difference. It gives the same feeling of my Great Grandma's southern screened in porch!
Some condominium developers in Malaysia include similar blinds for apartments that are west-facing to alleviate the intense heat. Granted these are more premium apartments.
What a serene space! It must be so peaceful to sit in the main area and feel the breeze drift in. I love that there's a lot of storage for books, and the loft is a nice surprise.
I like how they focused on creating different spatial qualities, maximizing flexibility, and optimizing storage solutions through minimal fixed furniture and transformable elements.
This video was really interesting to me, precisely because it's a completely opposite philosophy from what I'd choose for myself. Personally, I'm lazy, so I try to avoid transforming furniture, especially daily-use stuff like the bed. Seeing an apartment that's filled with it really does give perspective as to how other people live. Bicycles and books, flexible spaces that can be used for dining or yoga... the interactivity of the entire apartment really sells that the residents lead a very active lifestyle. Always cool to see how other folks live, what's different about their needs & tastes, and how their design choices reflect that.
I agrée v much with this assessment, especially including the size of the stove 😂 I’ve done that kitchen set up before and while it’s totally workable a bigger cooking area/surface is definitely a personal priority because I would spend all day in my apt just cooking. V different lives indeed
I'm 100% sure literally everyone would get annoyed after living there a couple of weeks. This type of "flexible" design is something you always see architect students do. Luckily most of them learn pretty quickly stuff has to be easy to use or it won't be used at all.
Love all these videos but this is definitely one of my favorites. Moving the shades out and the placement of the washing machine - brilliant! That backsplash and the terrazzo sink are works of art. I would love to have a space with the height to hang bikes like that, looks really cool. I've never seen a collapsible ladder like the one into the loft. Neato!
i love that the blinds were moved to the balcony & agree by doing that, extends the living space. my other fave feature was the shower room, i don't see anyone commenting on this but i thought it was simple yet vey nicely designed.
And beds that are easy for older people to get in and out of (we aren’t all circus performers!) But an interesting design that suits the owner. Didn’t see an oven or m/wave though.
@@grigorisgirl Ovens might not be a thing there? I lived in China for a while and knew only one couple with an oven in their apartment (and they were rich Americans).
Occasionally they do, but yeah when she got set up the two benches and coffee table for entertaining friends I was like 'I ain't coming to hang out at your house mate'
I really admire the creative and intelligent mind behind the design of this whole space. Everything is so thoughtful and personally tailored. Wow! What a triumph.
This is an interesting apartment with some very innovative solutions. The stairs are brilliant, they look surprisingly stable. The use of ‘lost’ space for the bikes is clever. The raised floor for storage is handy. And the overall aesthetics I find very pleasing. The only thing that worries me is the furniture. In theory this always sounds great but practically I think all this moving around of pieces will get tiresome very fast.
I agree! Moving furniture occasionally (2-3 times per year when guests come) is not a big deal; moving it regularly definitely is. But otherwise, a witty place, full of smart ideas. I am a big fan of living with only a few pieces of furniture, and rather using a space for more movement and enjoying the space.
Furniture that NEEDS to be moved gets tired fast, eg apartments with moveable walls where you need to close the kitchen to access the bathroom. But nothing in this apartment needs to be moved when you go about your daily life. You can leave the chairs and table as is, you can leave the bed, you can leave the stairs. Instead you have the flexibility to move them if you want to.
This is such a clever use of space, the way things get tucked away. I loved the idea of the blinds doubling up as the door and projector screen and the shades outside the balcony is genius! I can imagine the loft must be quite hot though even with a fan...
i am not usually a fan of industrial style, but this one is a jewel!. i can't get my eyes off that staircase. that system to elevate the bikes is brilliant and practical. with the hammock outside, it's a perfect relaxing spot - albeit in such a huge city. well done
I loveeeee it!!!! Wow!! Freedom, this is the feeling! Thank you to show me this sense of deep autonomy of the space we can create to our dinamic life, as human. Wonderful!
this space speaks to my soul ❤️ I love everything about it . And the leaves moving from the wind are everything 😊 i will be the most relaxed person if I lived there
I like the industrial-feel. It's nicely renovated and updated. Also, that backsplash in the kitchen is definitely a work of art. The coolest feature, though, might be those accordionesque stairs. 👌
Absolutely amazing home. So many different orientations. I am full of admiration for people who are able to use their own ideas for their homes. I must admit I am a little envious. I love every aspect of this home.
Amazing flex/multipurpose living space. Between the bedroom, living room and balcony, the design addresses the function of at least 7 or 8 rooms. Bravo!
I think this my fave apartment featured on NTS so far. Looks like it is in a great neighborhood and wow, those super high ceilings... I love all the quirky elements and embracing of imperfection. You don't need to spend $$$ to live well. Seems like a very comfortable space to live in.
agree!! I was feeling disappointed by NTS just because most of the renovations features were stunning but clearly very expensive, which partially defied the point of ‘living small’ from the financial perspective. this example is inspiring a lot due to it’s affordability!
The stair is definitely an interesting solution...but I do wonder about it's strength and longevity. When she walked up the stairs, you can see it shook and make some noise...just curious...
My favorite space is the bathroom...I especially love how there was focus on durable and easy to clean materials that also look beautiful in this project. As an older person, I still can't wrap my mind around these mobile staircases/ladders to access important areas of a living space...definitely not for me.
Wow amazing small.....huge space....so adaptable...so well thought of in design, style.... simple.... extremely functional in everyway.. only simple needs
Very thoughtful design choices to maximise space, the balcony blinds are great but I can never get my head around how someone can live in an apartment with basically zero soft/comfortable/ergonomic furniture.
Great place. Love it. The bedroom is very good. I like the way the blind to the bedroom can be used for projecting films from both side. Great bike storage, too.
Lovely flexible space. The darker features combined with warmth and light work well. The two levels of the lower floor are lovely, the screen another flexible idea. The stairs are fabulous! Bike storage great use of space. For NTS followers, you might enjoy the Wim Wenders film Perfect Days, on a number of levels. The simple rituals of small spaces, the taking time to enjoy small moments.
Very nice place. The stark brutalist minimalism is not within my personal aesthetics but I really appreciate the open management of space which makes it very open and flexible for change.
This is one of the best minimal small designs I have ever seen. Everything is well considered and the minimalism has some intelligence and practicality behind it.
There are so many clever design decisions here: the ladder is gorgeous, the outside shades are brilliant, the bedroom floor is stunning. Most of all, I want that bike storage system!
love the bathroom sitting area. especially good for elderly people. instead of installing those foldable chairs on walls. also can be used to put toiletries.
really really good design! the abundance of storage is great. I also really like the functionality of the flat, storage for bikes, the huge windows and blinds on the outer side of the balcony great decisions. I strongly did not like the sink, it is bulky and it is missing a shelf for everyday items.
Ingenious design with lots of great ideas, and that backsplash is amazing! I didn’t see a ladder or step stool for accessing the upper cabinets in the kitchen though. At 5’2” that’s the first thing I noticed about the kitchen. Maybe they have something tucked away.
I think this design has some very clever details. The backsplash is stunning, and the terrazo piece in the bathroom very cool. With the apt being so tall and having the exposee beam, I would likely incorporate some rope climbing and aereal yoga stuff. 🙂
I enjoy seeing how differently other people live. I try to put myself in these spaces and most of the time I feel right at home. This is no exception. The only thought I ever have with some spaces is how dependent some spaces are on moveable things, pulleys, walls that move, stairs that pull out. Maybe I overthink but I'd be wondering when the pulley would fail in the middle of the night and drop the bicycle on the floor or the stairs would stop working and I wouldn't be able to get up -- or down -- from the loft.
This space in retrospect is simple and multifunctional. Genius... I love how well thought out this space is, with every element perfectly as it should be. I would not change anithing about it.
Love how wide-open the apartment feels, and the storage designs are so smart. The black streaks of dust on the open edges of the loft (7:40) kinda bothered me though... maybe good to go up with a ladder and clean them all so you're not inhaling all that in the long run
Reminds me of a while ago, I was seriously considering on buying / renovating a Penthouse apartment in a major US city. It was an older building. The apartment was pretty moderately priced though for the city. The biggest issue: - it was a weird co-op setup. I still don't understand it fully - the elevator was really small. For some of my grand renovation ideas, I might have needed to rent equipment to get things to my apartment (over 30 stories) - was a pretty small apartment (relatively), but the huge selling point was the balcony which was nearly wrap around
All the people amazed by the stairs although they would be afraid to climb it.The library could be transformed to solid stairs with shelves.The architect is non stop executing exhausting workout to convince us how briliant is it to move stairs, bikes, beds...
Really interesting way of creating multi purpose areas. I love the high ceilings and balcony space that easily accessed from the interior. For me, the low to the floor furniture as well as the hard wooden benches for sitting would be too uncomfortable.
Like the home. However I never understand the bike thing… as a person from the Netherlands I take by bike out at least twice a day, hanging them seems like a lot of work. But the thing I completely don’t understand, bikes have wheels that go into the dirty outside world 🌎 then you take them into your clean home? 🚲
loved this one! lots of interesting ideas coming together and some really great hacks. i hate the stairs and would have done one of those alternating bookshelf stairs i saw on another episode of NTS (or try to!) but other than that - this is really a creative use of space! who would have thought you could have a yoga practice room in a 500sqft footprint
You can put bikes on balcony, and use that loft space, also door color doesn't mach with interier, both of them. . so many question about lay out and stairs. nice place, but project could be way better. Especially don't understand people who put furniture at front of windows.
It's the top floor apartment in Singapore (Equator area), the heat is IMMENSE during the daytime, the loft space serves as the heat pocket of the apartment. I bet the office area is a living hell to work in. You can tell the owner uses the lower floor 90% of their time and probably spend most of their daytime working outside or laptop down stair. The office looks like it had bare minimum use.
My in-laws, in Taiwan, had their machine outside. I don't remember it ever being brought in during the rainy season; just covered with a fitted waterproof cover. It seemed to be okay.
Moving the blinds to the outside is such a great idea. It makes the balcony part of the indoor living space, while still allowing the light to come through. This is my favorite feature of this renovation.
I think the main detractor is dirt. Likely, harder to clean.

@@ysbyttybedbug This is usually the case specially in tropical countries or beachside/humid areas. Dust will easily accumulate through the cracks and into the storage area.

I like them too.
Never seen such a thing. Brilliant.
There are limitations. Leave them down once during even moderate wind, and they are damaged.
Some condominium developers in Malaysia include similar blinds for apartments that are west-facing to alleviate the intense heat. Granted these are more premium apartments.
I love how it has an industrial feeling but it is also warm with the wood tones (especially the bedroom), the natural light and the plants.
Does anyone else imagine how they would set up all their stuff in each of these featured spaces? I would have so much fun in this one.
What a serene space! It must be so peaceful to sit in the main area and feel the breeze drift in. I love that there's a lot of storage for books, and the loft is a nice surprise.
Except when neighbours smoke
I like how they focused on creating different spatial qualities, maximizing flexibility, and optimizing storage solutions through minimal fixed furniture and transformable elements.
The rest of the upper open loft space needs the netting for lounging 👍
This video was really interesting to me, precisely because it's a completely opposite philosophy from what I'd choose for myself.

same. when i come home, i want to be 100% lazy.
I don't think they remove the tatami bed every day... It is just an option for when they need more space
While furniture can transform, often in houses like this it’s left in similar setup most of the time, but can be moved when necessary.
I'm 100% sure literally everyone would get annoyed after living there a couple of weeks. This type of "flexible" design is something you always see architect students do. Luckily most of them learn pretty quickly stuff has to be easy to use or it won't be used at all.

The loft and outdoor balcony are so important in that small space! I really like that!
NTS should do ONE, just one, home with a comfortable sofa.
And beds that are easy for older people to get in and out of (we aren’t all circus performers!) But an interesting design that suits the owner. Didn’t see an oven or m/wave though.
@@grigorisgirl Ovens might not be a thing there? I lived in China for a while and knew only one couple with an oven in their apartment (and they were rich Americans).
@@emily_nelson yes I thought about that after posting. Most cooking is probably done on a hob.
Occasionally they do, but yeah when she got set up the two benches and coffee table for entertaining friends I was like 'I ain't coming to hang out at your house mate'
I love the floor storage! This is one of the coolest "never too small" places I have seen. ❤

Beautiful apartment. I love the concrete backsplash.
A flat with space for books will always get my vote. Brilliant. Saving this one!!
Sadly I feel like the Owner obituary will say “died falling off platform without railing”. Good design otherwise.
I was noticing that, also. Railings could be added and still be attractive and blended in with the prevailing aesthetic.
I hope so the owner should enjoy
the clever design.@allie1953
Super unique and pleasantly done. I like how it was not overly designed, every area works.
really interesting concept. not in my taste, but open my eyes for different approach to space. love the bike pulley system. great space saver!
Absolutely amazing home. So many different orientations. I am full of admiration for people who are able to use their own ideas for their homes. I must admit I am a little envious. I love every aspect of this home.
I love the flexibility of the design and that each of the three spaces feels so unique and different, but also connected. I would love to live there.
Great apartment. The thing I love the most is the bedroom space with a lot of storage. It's like a transformer space with great potential
Living simply is the best thing ever!
Amazing flex/multipurpose living space. Between the bedroom, living room and balcony, the design addresses the function of at least 7 or 8 rooms. Bravo!
The architect is a good user of the corner..👍👍👍👏👏
That's a really great example of living big in a small space! Thanks for sharing!!!

The space has a simple and nice design that perfectly suits an artist's lifestyle.
I love the bathroom sink ! Not a fan of houses with 'moving pieces' to make more space, but this is very well designed for its odd layout.
Love this. I would have been so grateful for this mix of comfort, outside access, brightness, & utility when I lived in Tokyo. 💗
The stair is definitely an interesting solution...but I do wonder about it's strength and longevity. When she walked up the stairs, you can see it shook and make some noise...just curious...
It's a ladder, not stairs. I have the same retractable ladder to access my attic.
My favorite space is the bathroom...I especially love how there was focus on durable and easy to clean materials that also look beautiful in this project. As an older person, I still can't wrap my mind around these mobile staircases/ladders to access important areas of a living space...definitely not for me.

obsessed with the kitchen backsplash tbh
RIGHT?! A really novel way to do ''industrial" concrete with artistic life to it.
0:57 The ladder looks very practical. Great!
So much potential for a second bedroom in the loft space over the bathroom and kitchen without losing the double height over the living area.
just watching this brings me to my zen space. freaking love the industrial
active + passive living = great health = great mind ! loved the design !!
This is one of the best minimal small designs I have ever seen. Everything is well considered and the minimalism has some intelligence and practicality behind it.
Үйдің дизайны керемет шыққан. Өте ыңғайлы және сақтау орындары ұтымды пайдаланылған. Лофт стиль. Әдемі маған ұнайды.
This is the coolest one yet. Incredibly well designed.
Whilst absolutely not for me, I really appreciate the ingenuity.

Like a NYC loft, but in tropical Singapore! 🇸🇬 Amazed! 😎✌️
A great space and the unique interior design compliments it ingeniously.
So interesting to see a video from Singapore. This apartment is so atypical too. Nice.
Quirky. With EXCELLENT IDEAS!
love itttt
Thank you, NTS for another brilliant video.
All featured projects here are so inspiring!
I think this design has some very clever details. The backsplash is stunning, and the terrazo piece in the bathroom very cool.
With the apt being so tall and having the exposee beam, I would likely incorporate some rope climbing and aereal yoga stuff. 🙂
I love the designated disassociation space

yh my thought😂 but it might be the kind that has literally turned into tar😂
This one is truly incredible. Would love to live in a place like this. Hats off!
Reminds me of a while ago, I was seriously considering on buying / renovating a Penthouse apartment in a major US city. It was an older building. The apartment was pretty moderately priced though for the city. The biggest issue:
- it was a weird co-op setup. I still don't understand it fully
- the elevator was really small. For some of my grand renovation ideas, I might have needed to rent equipment to get things to my apartment (over 30 stories)
- was a pretty small apartment (relatively), but the huge selling point was the balcony which was nearly wrap around
Very clever and exciting point of view to have not only flexibility of the spaces but also of the functions. Usuaĺly functions are fixed.
Nice! I like it, uncluttered and simple....that is what life should be.
So much potential with this space and it’s rare to see layout like this in Singapore.
All the people amazed by the stairs although they would be afraid to climb it.The library could be transformed to solid stairs with shelves.The architect is non stop executing exhausting workout to convince us how briliant is it to move stairs, bikes, beds...
I would personally prefer the bookcase stairs as well, but the client wanted flexibility and the architect totally delivered.
Neighbours must love that washing machine!
Washing machines on balconies is super common in many parts of Asia.
Ingenious and inspiring. Exactly the kind of space I hope to have someday. Thank you for sharing
I looooove how this apartment has thought through everything
Really interesting way of creating multi purpose areas. I love the high ceilings and balcony space that easily accessed from the interior. For me, the low to the floor furniture as well as the hard wooden benches for sitting would be too uncomfortable.
Excellent video! This is really one of those "never too small" places. The video is full of genius ideas. I like that.
Like the home. However I never understand the bike thing… as a person from the Netherlands I take by bike out at least twice a day, hanging them seems like a lot of work. But the thing I completely don’t understand, bikes have wheels that go into the dirty outside world 🌎 then you take them into your clean home? 🚲
Unfortunately, in the majority of the world, your bike will be stolen if left outside-even if it’s “secured” with a bike lock 😢
Very interesting space. It feels very multi purpose and entirely livable. Really enjoyed it.
Main space and study feels like a bunker / underground parking
There are so many good ideas to maximise space in this home. But it still looks spacious.
after watching this video, i consider 3 things:
1) Should i get that ladder
2) Should i try hooking by bicycle
3) SHould i use tatami for more storage
Excellent architect and I really love the maximisation of space❤
There are some good ideas, but the final outcome looks like a "do it yourself" project.
Lots of clever and interesting storage and living solutions!
The blinds. Genius.
loved this one! lots of interesting ideas coming together and some really great hacks. i hate the stairs and would have done one of those alternating bookshelf stairs i saw on another episode of NTS (or try to!) but other than that - this is really a creative use of space! who would have thought you could have a yoga practice room in a 500sqft footprint
Hai... I'm from Indonesian, and i proud you say my country
this is a brilliant design, my fav so far
Not my aesthetic but I would love to love there. Especially with the plants gently swaying, it looks so comfortable
Loved the space and I think an opportunity of putting a laying net over the open space of the concrete to lounge on it would be awesome
love it! everything (well lets not mention the fridge!) some fantastic new ideas! thank you 🥰
You can put bikes on balcony, and use that loft space, also door color doesn't mach with interier, both of them. . so many question about lay out and stairs. nice place, but project could be way better. Especially don't understand people who put furniture at front of windows.

You do realise putting bikes outside destroys them right?
Love this space. Does the washing machine not get battered by the rain?
