Hi Daniel, its Matt and Momo here. You need to do the rest of our rooms please 😂 this is amazing!! ❤️🥰🔥
Thanks again for taking the time to put your amazing creative brain to a thing like this.
The amount of time and effort to produce a video like this in such a short time is amazing. I didn't expect it so soon.
You really didn't disappoint, really smart unique ideas, and the standout attention to detail that you provide, it really feels like these designs are very achievable! We love it!
We will keep you updated on our progress, and hopefully you can eventually see the finished result in person! ☺️
So glad you two like it! I'm so inspired by you both.
Looking forward to seeing what you do with the space. 🙌
Your Akiya is lovely and I'm now invested! Would love to see an update once you're able!
I would love to see the update! 🥰😊
Hey Daniel i can't thank you enough, i have posted a commend about how you inspired me to become an arcitecth and also that you change my personality, i used to be a boy that just sat i my room all the time and in a clutterd room but after i found you're yt cannel, my life changed, i got better grades and also that im being more social. i'm only 14 years old but still you change everything about me. ❤ God bless you
This is beautiful to read
@@Callmyselfanartist tank you ❤
So nice to read. Sounds like you’re on an amazing path towards a great life now! Stay happy and lucky :)
You've gotta love these wholesome corners of the internet! :-)
thank you so much, i also hope that you are on a great path of being something big in life :) @MTerry
Hi this is Momo.
Thank you so much for your amazing design for the house!
I really like this design and we'll definitely do it:)
Seems not too difficult to make reality as well.
We will send you photos when we are done!
I really appreciate it.
When you come to Japan, please stay in our house:)
Thank you:)
Thank you so much for submitting it! If I ever make it over there, you guys will be the first to know. 😊
Please send work in progress videos and photos. We're all dying to see this!
I wondered why you chose for barn doors while wonderful Japanese sliding doors (shoji) also exist
Absolutely spot-on. I too was puzzled by the choice. It is so jarring as to be almost an insult to the culture. Shoji are far superior in every respect.
@Sjors Timmer you are so right! I wasn't aware when watching the video but yes, absolutely, you are right
Likewise with the Spanish-designed paper lantern. I think it was a solid aesthetic decision, looked lovely, but to bring in a European version of a classic japanese craft/form when I'm sure there'd be plenty quality and contemporary options on your doorstep seems odd.
@@kenny1800 Agree!
@@kenny1800 agree.
I would definitely go with an Akari lamp
will need to connect with the homeowners for the before and after of their rebuild!
I love the fact that you did not hang the picture centered but aligned its right border with the center instead. A brilliant detail.
This design looks absolutely beautiful, and I love how you've paid attention to the multi-functionality of the space so well! I would love to see your ideas for the rest of the spaces in this house as well. It's nice to see projects with varying scale on your channel. The small spaces are what lured me in, but the variety keeps me coming back to admire your work.
These redesigns are my favorite videos on interior design. Real life application of all the concepts on realistic settings.
This was so fun to watch the transformation seriously hope we get to see the other rooms transformed as well, cause watching the entire house transformed would be amazing😍
We would love that also 😂
I could watch Daniel work his magic endlessly, he definitely nailed it and delivered.
Been waiting for new episode of this series for the longest time! Amazing work as always
Incredible transformation! I’m curious about one detail. Are barn doors proposed as final direction or more as a concept. Feels like traditional Japanese paper doors might be more appropriate here.
I would LOVE to see their finished product if they follow your design! Also, Love the design, my wife and I are falling in love with the Japandi style you lean into so well! thank you for letting us know what it was called!
Agree it would be very interesting to know if they proceed forward with this plan or another to see the finish product.
I love this series so much! I would really like longer episodes!
love your work Mr. Titchener. Your excellent videos have made me a better designer, and more importantly, you've made interior design accessible and fun for so many. Keep up the great work!
Again, you’ve created a stellar design that’s created for practical, comfortable and beautiful living! Always inspiring.
This was a joy to watch - brilliant!
Absolutely love your videos! I always get so much inspiration from your ideas for my own space. Thank you!
I would like to see a solution for the insulation. You could do an air gapped mimic wall framing fabric or paper to use static air as insulation and the frame can mimic the traditional construction. Or you could do a full wall curtain. And if you want to minimize these changes only do the North wall since that is where most benefit is gained.
Stunning! Everything is well thought out, practical and absolutely gorgeous.
Great video as always!
Daniel, you are really so thoughtful and so budget conscious, it's incredible - so many architects or designers are more interested in themselves than their clients - you bring so much care to what you do. and the results show it.
You are insanely talented!!
amazing design as always
Another fantastic transformation! Again, I really hope that there can be a follow up video once these renovation are complete.
Hey man, can you design a 4x4 sprinter cargo van for travel , that includes murphy bed, full shower/bathroom, desk area for workspace/gaming, kitchen and storage ideas for holding e-bikes etc , love your concepts and would love to see your take on this
I've said this before, you are a design genius! I get so much inspiration from watching your videos. Thanks
Hi Daniel, this gives me inspiration on what to do with my white solid surface kitchen and island countertop that has stained and cracked.
Hi Daniel, Would you ever consider designing a space in Ghana?
This is a lovely house, with good bones and character, so very happy to see it's still being valued as a home. Would love to get an update if/when the couple update their space. Perhaps it could be the start of a new series, where we can how people have updated their spaces after you've redesigned them...?
It's lovely and inspiring watching this channel.. Gracias Daniel
Really beautiful design! Did anyone transform their space following your redesign and shared with you? Would be interesting to see, especially because you calculate budget to the dot, consider every detail and make it seem so easy to implement...
Great video! very eye opening!
ooooooooooooo looks amazing
Very well done! ☆
I have the same sofas and changed the legs for wooden ones ☺️ … and love them!
Man, you're a genius, Daniel!
wicked great stuff
I normally hate barn doors but they totally make sense in the space. Lovely.
Great to see other countries and nationalities!
Love it
I really want to see the result now. Nice.
OMG - the algorithm is algorithm-ing! Watching @SundaiLove’s journey to find the perfect akiya 🥰
I am in the process of locating and purchasing one of these homes, so imagine my surprise to see this, as a subscriber of yours.
0:44 that abandoned looks nicer than most inhabited places here in the states.
Amazing project! Daniel, right now there are some invisible sliding door hardware that are quite elegant and not so pricey and I think is worth checking on next projects for your minimalistic approach. This would have fit the room much better, since the barn doors hardware seems too clunky and it is the only thing out of line here for me.
Love ur vids!
That was the perfect segway to the ad. Great video though. Keep it up !
I can't describe this better than this - "SATISFYING!"
It is wonderful tbh
My favorite RUclips channel!
Whoa! Thanks so much Burk! ❤️
Beautiful transformation! And for some reason, “Japandi” cracks me up though I love the aesthetic. Some while ago I built an ottoman and used round ‘puff’ feet (think pork bun). Does IKEA offer this style? You might want to look at stacking these for the two seater instead of conventional legs . Ironically these would reflect the beautiful hanging light design. You do inspire us Daniel! Many thanks.
Hey Daniel, Greetings from Montréal!! Thanks a lot for your videos. They are so helpful and inspiring! I believe you have mentioned that before but I couldn't find the info. What are the software (other than sketchUp) do you use in your workflow to create those representations and renderings? Cheers,
If it weren't so difficult to get a visa as a Latin American in Japan, I would have left a long time ago. I work remotely and I can live wherever I want and a place like this feels perfect to me. It's nice that people take advantage of these opportunities
god im a bxtch for this design, the lime wash the JAPANDI ughhh even the cedar wood jeez, definitely my inspiration for my home
Lovely design. I would like to know where the homeowners would store many of the items we see in the "before" photos. The coats, for example, can't be put into the bench storage of the new design. How will they retain the look and feel of the new design without losing necessary storage for a family?
Awesome Daniel, I love it! Curious about the 1st floor as well:) and about what solution there was to the missing insulation.
I second this! I'm sure the insluation would take a big part of the budget (and maybe not look very exciting to design), but it would still be interesting to have an understanding of this house project as a whole.
I don't know if it will be insulated, maybe on the outside of the building. But there might be local building regulations that the owners need to adhere to. But it looks beautiful and like it will be a great multi purpose space, I especially liked the use of the sliding doors to open up the space. Pocket doors are a brilliant way to maximize your space
nice vedio mann...loved it .
Akiya = Empty Home. Languages other than English are so rich n descriptive n beautiful sounding.
It's amazing that houses like that exist in Japan for that price. I'm sure they require a lot more work than regular houses, but £30,000 for a home that beautiful (even without your modifications) sounds incredible
Great video, loved the CGI version!
On the other hand, traveling to buy a house in Japan as a foreigner with no special visa isn't something money can solve easily
I absolutely love the way you design people's small homes. We're currently in the process of buying real estate for ourselves (me and my husmand) too. I would absolutely loooove for you to design it, but of course, in a budget. How we can reach out to you more directly?
Hi Daniel, always enjoying your high quality videos and your great ideas!
I am starting my career as an interior designer and I wanted to ask you what is an appropriate pricing for this kind of work, remodelling an apartment incl. analysis of the customers needs and style and providing a list of items, furniture etc to fit that, their apartment and budget. Would you do an hourly basis or overall price for the consultation? (My services are fully remote and my customers are in Germany mostly). Appreciate any piece of advice!
How much of the kitchen cabinetry was actually built in-house/DIY rather than fabricated or contractor installed? I find this part to be my favorite, since I'm a former cabinetmaker. Looking forward to designing out and building my kitchen setup. Just need to get the roof, walls, and floor finished first. lol
Kitchen Island is a little bit oversized ...
Beautiful 😍😍😍😍.
Daniel can u check out this video "How AI Image Generators Can Revolutionize Interior Design" there isn't too much control yet but it is very interesting and worth experimenting with
For how much emphasis there was on functionality, it's odd that the finished design removed all the shelf space in the kitchen and the closet near the entrance. Sure, this looks great if you're trying to capture stock photos for a design magazine, but how can anyone actually USE this house? Where do people put their jackets? Where do other appliances like the microwave go?
A lot of thought was put into making the place uncluttered and functional, but the end result isn't practical at all.
4:55 I think you missed the part where he said that the kitchen island built is done with cabinets. It's a bit confusing because the picture shows 8 cabinets but he says 6 cabinets at 600x400mm, and if you're using bar stool seating as depicted which are higher than normal then it might be two layers of 6 cabinets (12 cabinets) for 1200x1200x1600 mm or 2.3 m^3 of storage space. That's plenty of storage space
@RossHall-UK you are right. We are in the middle of winter and have coats there temporarily as we will put a coat closet in the genkan like you said. Everything is very messy 😂
Great design but no need for barn doors, Japanese houses already have sliding doors!
Hi Daniel, Another Daniel here. I’m curious to know, is your visualisation done in sketch up? I’m currently taking a course in 3d visualisation using sketch up, halfway through. Redesigning my current house on it and having lots of fun. Really like what you do. Thank you for being an inspiration.
Stunning
I love Japanese architecture but the Japandi trend. Fantastic adaptation!
daniel, another well put together design from a very hot dude!
My type of a home
I often wondered how Japanese houses are insulated for winter. It gets pretty cold in Japan, yet these old homes don’t seem insulated at all.
Similar to Korea, I believe in floor heating is used.
@@B_is_for_butter hahaha unfortunately that function from Korea doesn't come over here. Even getting their thin Carbon film underfloor heating here in Japan is scarce. It's just cold cold cold houses 🥶
@@kamijimaadventures7399 🥶😭😭😭 Are space heaters common? I follow a Japan based RUclipsr who uses one but she's an ex pat versus a native of Japan.
7:17 I don't see why not put the stove in the corner. It would be better for air circulation having it all the way to the corner with the extractor as well.

Do you have more info regarding that micro cement? Brands, colours, availability in the Netherlands or Europe?
That was a beautiful and calming concept. Did you solved the problem of insulation and first floor?
you cant fix that without tearing the walls out and changing the entire build. a lot of japanese people just use window units to heat the room or using a kotatsu to warm themselves up.
@@nawab256 Perhaps external wall insulation would be possible, we didn't get a look at the outside of the house to see if it's possible.
@@user-go8oj4dl4w external is probably the way to go. Most of the exterior is just cheap metal siding with similar mud walls within. It would be a slow wall by wall job, otherwise it's quite a substantial job and cost.
Hello, may I ask where to get the timber kitchen cabinet?
I would have a custom Hinoki (Japanese Cypress) counter top made instead.
Is the bench from a particular furniture store, or just inspired by other designs?
First off, thank you so much for these videos! Super interesting.
Just curious, does IKEA sponsor you? (My apologies if you've already answered this somewhere - you probably have!) And another quick question, have you found the Soderhamn sofa to be a quality product? Many reviews criticize their quality.
If this design is for a foreigner, it will work out. For Japanese family, won't work because of the high chairs. Japanese don't like high chair and countertops for eating meals. They rather have a retangular normal size table for meals. Must take in Consideration of the humidity. Molds everywhere.....
So...I heard that in Japan, houses devaluate immediately after you buy them. You buy a house for 187k usd and after 30 years of paying it, it is worth even less. is this true? i need a japanese here who can confirm or deny it...
Is “Mud wall” essentially wattle and daub?
I don't doubt your knowledge, techniques or else. But I can't help but feel the Kitchen is still a bit claustrophobic despite having much less stuff, isn't there too little space to move around due to the island? Isn't the island a bit too big?
Hey, do you still allow submissions for free room improvement ideas?
This is only part of the story (for those interested in why Japan suddenly has a bunch of empty homes available)... This is a really good explanation so you know what you'd be getting into if you want to buy one. Still very worth it though!

As usual, this was a fantastic approach. I love how you used an updated and streamlined version of what's already there. The limewash especially will just make this space stunning.
Just wondering if those countertop stools are a real product or if they’re only CGI?
Do you use Sketchup for modeling? If so, which version? If not, which program? Thanks.
If I’m not wrong you remove the wardrobe wall and make that works as a hallway. But that seems to measure only 60 cm, which wouldn’t be enough
would have liked a link to matt and momo's pages or profile.
Thanks! He has linked my website here, but our insta is same as my handle here.
We aren't very active but do send a message if you want to say hi ☺️
Do you get a lot of requests for you to redesign peoples rooms or houses?
Did the owners do anything about adding insulation?
Not yet 😂 that's a whole nother ball game
Keep doing redesign vids, soon enough you wouldn't need to run ads on the channel ISA.
Hi Daniel, I'm very sorry that this videos of yours got less views than your average and I have to admit that I have waited till now before clicking on it. Maybe a thumbnail problem? As a youtuber myself, I might suggest that the thumbnail picture is a bit too crowded than your usual "architect redesigns".
Your design is beautiful. One thing I don't understand is why you chose barn doors over Japanese shoji screens. I assume the barn door is cheaper? Nonetheless shoji screens are such a beautiful and traditional feature in Japanese architectures (quite the opposite of barn doors, in my personal opinion).
I tried to apply for my redesign but i couldn't proceed i don't know why, how else can i reach you??!
I was confused about the refrigerator. Where is it?
At 12:40 , white rectangle in the back. Between door and coffee machine.
5:45 Where is this?
Very pretty and interesting concept... but did they build it? I'd prefer to see the reality, rather than the CAD drawing.
