It's obvious that nothing about the design process has been easy - every corner and nook is thought out, everything serves a purpose. But the result is so easy, so comfortable, so very cozy. Really enjoyed seeing this space!
Love the use of color to separate spaces visually and the use of curves to break up the narrowness of the apartment. So functional and yet so warm. Fantastic!!
To me, this is the best featured home on this channel. Elegant, clever, fun, peaceful, original, functional, and not trendy. Bravo to the adorable couple who designed this charming place.
Elegant? No Clever? Having to climb to your bed? Don't think so. Fun? Sure! Peaceful? Maybe. Its noise-proof-ability was not showcased. Original? No Functional? Do I have to remind you of the bed? No Not trendy? Thank, God!
every piece of furniture screams: "look at me look at me" which generates an unapproachable environment. The space is not perceived as an intuitive solution, but on the contrary very forced and overloaded.
That sliding wall is one of my two most favourite features in this flat, as well. I wonder though how stable it is. there is no rail in the floor, so it is entirely suspended from the ceiling. Is that going to be stable enough?
@@makanimike At first I assumed while missing a rail in the floor it still would have hidden wheels for support. But from 8:15 min ish one can see the door swinging a bit. So it would be floating entirely suspended from the ceiling, yes. I guess there is hardware that can do this safely. Sure you wouldn't want to see a rail in the floor.

@@1whitecottagelife770 It's a good size fridge and a big freezer for a couple. They don't live in the sticks, but in central London, with shops and restaurants within a few minutes walk.
This design is a Masterpiece! Wow! What amazing ideas they’ve used to have multiple different rooms in one small envelope but still keep it open and airy! One of my all time favourites on this channel!
I’ve never seen a garden flat with this much natural light! It’s astoundingly beautiful & obvious that they thought through each surface from the curved corner cabinets to the use of glass…I LOVE IT
This space is astounding. I remember a previous Studio Mama project featured on this channel that was an unusually tiny space that seemed almost experimental, rather than practical. In this apartment, the way they created an open corridor with sleeping pods tucked away to focus on the big backyard windows is a truly bold and well-executed choice. Especially like the small details like the unique dining table they chose to fit their small dining area.
I like the flow of this apartment. Very bright and modern. To me personally, I see some elements of Japanese design as well as Frank Lloyd Wright in the timber and green colours.
Yeah, to mee it also felt like a blend of Japanese meets classic architecture of long ago. Especially the color scheme and the terrazzo backsplash blending with the color of the wood.
Surprised no one seemingly picked up on the fact that they brought that dark colored, curved, sculptural piece hanging above the door from the old flat, and presented in the new space above the diamond shaped table. Cool little homage, and works well. Nicely done.
I love this apartment!! Who knew that a 'basement' apartment could be so light and airy! Love all the colors too. And the kitchen has so much storage without taking up a huge amount of space. Two things I would add: in the dining area, where they have a bench, I'd have made that a 'window seat' with padding and storage underneath. Where that stunning walled bookcase is in the front of the apartment, I'd arrange some comfy seating to sit, relax and read. Great job!
One of my favourites. The design is sophisticated and soothing, with varying points of interest. I felt a sense that all the details had been thoughtfully taken care of.
Brilliant project! One of my favorites until now! Very smaart ideas, great choices of colors, it looks fun and original. I'm fan of these two! Love love love it! Very inspiring!
This is one of the best features on this channel. The architects did an amazing job. It's bright, colourful, and looks really functional. I LOVE that they actually incorporated a study space.
Exceptional use of colours, space, light, curves & space from the entrance to the kitchen diner. Stunningly framed bedroom, shower, & study. All great, love it.
I have wanted to see bedrooms like this for a while. I think this is a great way to use this sized space. I also like the smaller fridge and freezer in the kitchen. Very classy, a rich understanding of needs in a space and well-established zones. Great design and build, you've set a standard for how to, in a space under 60sqM.
The design touches are beautiful, but I feel as if the space is not managed adequately. The sleeping pods are cute, but very small. It must be a nuisance to have to move things in order to get in and out when you have a relatively large space at the front of the house which looks quite empty. It looks generous, as she says, and the library is beautiful, but the whole space seems underused, and it's almost as large as the living/dining/kitchen space. The whole space looks spacious in parts and very cluttered in others. Still, the colors and design are absolutely beautiful!
I also find there is wasted space ( the joinery is very beautiful though). It seems they have created a very generous front-to-back corridor which makes their home feels spacious. But everywhere else - where they are actually going to spend time around - is very cramped... Unless they needed to build a showroom/workspace and the home elements such as bedrooms needed to be reduced.
@@123a-o5d No, it doesn't. That's not a reading chair, doesn't have full back support so it will not be comfortable to read for more than a few minutes.
@@YaaLFH The orange/peach one? I think we're talking about different places and chairs. I'm talking about the entrance hallway with the big round mirror and wall bookshelf and chair placed next to the window. This looks like an ok place to read, though not as nice as sitting next to a window on the opposite side of the flat with views into the garden.
wow!! i loved everything about it! absolutely brilliant ideas, the pods are so cozy, the unique shape of the dining table, the colors, everything works together and makes sense. lovely!
You have a "room" that’s little more than a corridor and a shelf, and then the bedroom it’s just a big coffin. I think the space has not been used very wisely
They created a series of boxes and boxed zones. With a huge corridor taking up most of the space. Sofa looked like a waiting room area. But the kitchen was stunning though!
I personally like the original set up where the living and the bathroom is in the front entrance. The bedroom and the office area in the back are a great design for privacy. The new sleeping pods are too claustrophobic for me if I am to live here. I remember this couple design a much more smaller place, and it was absolutely lovely. I love their previous tiny cozy home that was about 175 sq feet or less.😍
Am I the only one who doesn't like it? I mean, you have 54 sqm, which is not that small, and yet you still sleep in a box and lack proper living space, so you end up living in the kitchen!? Wtf... The garden is the best part of the apartment.
No, you're not the only one. This places is creepy and cold, it doesn't look like a home but like a showroom. The sleeping spaces (you can't call that bedrooms) are suffocating and oppressive, while so much space is wasted.
@@franescadiano I see all of your points about what you guys call wasted space. I think what they wanted is the openness but compartmentalized. Colorful but minimal. It's not my preferred esthetic but I can appreciate it artistically. It feels too clean and not really lived in, like a showroom, as you stated. The homeowners love it. To each their own, yeah? 😊
I should love it, however it just almost seems so dated , with a mixture of reminders towards Japan, Sweden and 70’s London, with an old colour scheme . It really is a great work, I just wish I loved it more. I can imagine this property is really polarising through its uniqueness.
Beautiful and very bespoke- it can't have been cheap to fit out this space. I'm totally stealing the idea for the bookshelf that incorporates the fireplace!
Such a beautiful flat! My only concern is about the sleeping pods ie how to change the bedding without straining backs and knees, and how prevent mold/mildew when the mattresses are laying directly on the platform. It's a shame to restrict people who are less agile from living within such a lovely design 😍😍
in regards to the mattresses getting air, I would suspect that they rest on slats? So you can always just pull out the storage drawers below them for a few hours so that it can really air out from both sides?
I have long since recognized that these small homes won’t be suitable for all. If the brief had been for me (older woman, difficult in using stairs, easy access bed, comfortable sitting area to read and watch tv) the design would be beautiful but different.
@@makanimike I'm quite sure the mattresses rest on slats for comfort reasons alone. I think pulling out the drawers is possible but seems like a bugger. I mean who would want to pull out the drawers every other morning -- it's quite the compromise isn't it?. The design should consider under-mattress airflow in the first place. Maybe it does but we can't see it from the video. Imho space under the bed should never be fully covered up by drawers.
When a design flows well into the space, its decoration becomes part of it. No need for extra decoration to make it eye-pleasing. How I love the bedrooms named sleeping pod. Fully functioning for 1 purpose and that is to sleep only. It is always exciting to see Studiomama projects. Deeply appreciate for showcasing this project.
i hate how close together the sleeping pods are. a sliding wall is not enough privacy. i think it was a mistake to have that area with the big wall with a mirror instead of giving more room to each "bedroom"
I’ve been following this channel for a long time now and I think this is one of the most intelligent plan I’ve seen Well done, everything fits perfectly right
Alright, this is the most stylish one for sure that doesn't bore my eyes to death like many others. It literally blows my mind, I can't even describe this style without showing it to someone. That kitchen is INCREDIBLE and so is the round glass window. I don't love the layout though, except for the entrance bit and desk area. I am not a huge fan of the sleeping rooms for example. But of course it's in Islington haha, I could've guessed that if it wasn't mentioned!
I was surprised by the raised bed and the storage underneath, as well as the solution to the cramped building structure, creating a usable space with a sense of continuity, making the room look wider and livelier with the choice of materials and colors.
Seeing such a large hallway with everything squeezed against the walls feels like a missed opportunity. It's very spacious and flows beautifully but not sure if I'd appreciate that when trapt in my perched box room.
I like the layout and ideas v much. I especially like how much genuinely functional storage they managed to integrate, and the sleep pods are fun. Judging by the emptiness of the shelves I assume it’s still to actually be lived in and furnished - I would love to see how it looks with more soft textures and the trappings of actual life (books, clothes in closets etc). I have to say I can’t wait for the mania for banquette seating to die (especially with sharp edges - imagine knocking into that by accident, ouch) - there’s nothing cosy about a rigidly high backed sofa especially where there was visibly room for something more welcoming. But the flat is overall a very cool design.
I suppose the big selling point for banquette seating would be the storage you can build in without having to worry about floor space or falling over more furniture. But yes, I’m also a fan of tables you can walk around.
This was the only negative that jumped out to me, I can't imagine coming home after a hard day's work to sit bolt upright on a narrow bench "sofa" like that. It's impractical as part of a real living space IMO
This might be my favorite design on this channel. Everything is so well thought through. I love how bright and open the space is, considering it’s the basement flat. The colors, the wood finishes, just wow.
the space is well thought out. The sleeping pods feel very claustrophobic, in my view. Instead of 2 sleeping pods, perhaps one small bedroom and a sofa bed would have been better.
They present their design with such effortlessness and cool. It looks like it's taken a lot of hard work and determination. The result is beautiful. Many of these period basement flats in London are orientated to the front (ie living room overlooking...well, underlooking... the street), It's a no-brainer that the areas for relaxing and socialising would overlook a lovely green space with large windows and lots of light...
Beautiful apartment but tiny difficult to reach bedroom nooks with probably bad air circulation. Personally I would not have sacrificed this much space for corridor and living rooms and to keep only these tiny sleeping nooks.
My thoughts exactly - also quite a bit of unused space in the kitchen & impractical bench abutting dining table. Presumably to preserve a luxe sightline. This design feels like a quick thought experiment more than a functional living space. And even as a thought experiment alone could have used a bit more cooking.
It's a well-thought-out space for two people. The only things I would rethink are the sofa area and the dining area. Everything is or seems to be open except that space. It's still a workable and open treasure of a flat. I love that an uncluttered bookcase greets you when you curve around into the entrance. Thank you for sharing.
@@YaaLFH What are you spazzing about? Besides there are at least two to three BOOKS there. Look closely, for starters on the cover they have their arms up.
I absolutly love this one!!! well that out, love the sense of wonder, clean open airy colourfull and warm. Really great, i always like them but this is amazing, a new favourite!
Very unusual layout, but quirky and fun! Love the way each area and section is situated and decorated, especially with different color schemes. Very, very nice.
This is a brilliant project, but I have two questions: 1). How do you make the bed? 2) Where is the ladder that you would need to reach the high shelves in the kitchen and the closets?
I think this is the most unique and creative design I’ve ever seen! I love how everything flows together throughout the home. The custom furniture is gorgeous and compliments each space. The kitchen is functional and beautiful. Well done!
It's really clever and smartly done. There is no loss of light or storage. I find the bathroom a bit confining. But they created a very practical and peaceful feeling place. Hard to do in a lower level with small square footage and they fit in two sleeping pods and a study to boot!
9 месяцев назад
very well-thought, love the colors, the pocket doors, the added storage everywhere... beautiful and quirky!
I really appreciate and even took some notes of certain elements of this unique design like the curved edges of the entry hall closet. However, I think they could have make a much better use of the space. Which is actually quite big. Most people in the comments mentioned the sleeping area (that I also struggle to call bedrooms), but personally my biggest issue is the kitchen. The counter space is very limited and the fridge isn't sufficient for a single person living there full time, let alone a small family (hence the need for two *bedrooms* I assumed) They could have easily integrated a full size fridge and a decent-sized kitchen island to compensate for the lack of counter space.
It's obvious that nothing about the design process has been easy - every corner and nook is thought out, everything serves a purpose. But the result is so easy, so comfortable, so very cozy. Really enjoyed seeing this space!
It's the exact opposite of comfortable and cosy.
I love the curved edges of the entry hall closet. This is out of the ordinary and refreshing. Art in Architecture!
Yes. Its Feng Shui influenced to get rid of all sharp angles, a.k.a. "poison arrows". It gives a feeling of safety and that the space is "organic".
The curved door is absolutely gorgeous. The shelves inside would fit about a pair of knickers each or something
@@fideovilm8448 Was wondering the same thing. They could have made the shelving rounded as well right.
good idea :)@@sijoneyyan
@@fideovilm8448Indeed! But a few simple hooks and pegs would make it much more usable so it's not totally wasted.

Really loved the space! Love the transforming nature, the shapes, and the materials!
I got a sense, I'll sleep at the sofa much more than in the claustrophobic sleeping pods.
Brilliant design. The perfect marriage of form and function. Smooth lines to accommodate the ethos of vibrant space, the list goes on.

So brilliantly done !

They present their design with such effortlessness and cool. It looks like it's taken a lot of hard work and determination. The result is beautiful. Many of these period basement flats in London are orientated to the front (ie living room overlooking...well, underlooking... the street), It's a no-brainer that the areas for relaxing and socialising would overlook a lovely green space with large windows and lots of light...
The kitchen is unusual. I like it. Great use of space all round.
Beautiful apartment but tiny difficult to reach bedroom nooks with probably bad air circulation. Personally I would not have sacrificed this much space for corridor and living rooms and to keep only these tiny sleeping nooks.
In particular the bookshelf entrance area ia huge with no particular function.
My thoughts exactly - also quite a bit of unused space in the kitchen & impractical bench abutting dining table. Presumably to preserve a luxe sightline. This design feels like a quick thought experiment more than a functional living space. And even as a thought experiment alone could have used a bit more cooking.
I see a lot of ingenious designs. Bravo!
It's a well-thought-out space for two people. The only things I would rethink are the sofa area and the dining area. Everything is or seems to be open except that space. It's still a workable and open treasure of a flat. I love that an uncluttered bookcase greets you when you curve around into the entrance. Thank you for sharing.
Bookcase? There aren't even 10 books there.
@@YaaLFH 3:28 because a ton of unread reads are not there doesn't make it any. less a Bookcase.
@@startpage717 There are no books there for reading.
@@YaaLFH What are you spazzing about? Besides there are at least two to three BOOKS there. Look closely, for starters on the cover they have their arms up.
Se respira una atmosfera de paz y tranqulidad, cada rincon esta pensado al detalle, me gusta mucho ,❤
Am so glad that this has colour!! And very well done!
This is outstanding. Very inspiring regarding what you can do with dark lower ground spaces
What a bright and cheerful space they have created! I love it. :)
2 questions: where is the WC near the entrance? and, do people upstairs come to the garden? (I saw the stairs)
Ooh! I past that area during new year 2023 at London😮 Never thought I would see what it’s like under the house
I absolutly love this one!!! well that out, love the sense of wonder, clean open airy colourfull and warm. Really great, i always like them but this is amazing, a new favourite!
This has got to be one of the most ingenious designs I’ve ever seen for a tiny space. I adore it!
Very unusual layout, but quirky and fun! Love the way each area and section is situated and decorated, especially with different color schemes. Very, very nice.
Where is the washing machine and dryer? Where to hang the wet laundry to dry?
Gorgeous! Fabby design saves the day again.
This is a brilliant project, but I have two questions: 1). How do you make the bed? 2) Where is the ladder that you would need to reach the high shelves in the kitchen and the closets?
this is one of my faves! love how many different spaces are in here and the colours and materials are really fun. the beds look sooo cozy too.
Amazing house! the colors selected and how the space is distributed are perfect! It is one of my favorite houses that I have seen so far.
One of the best NTS
Saved to Favorites so I can watch this amazing space and study it over and over...love it!
This is one of the best I've seen. Good for you!
Smart design, I like the idea of organizing space
love the colors, the little curved edges, the window space above, and furniture. beautiful design and well thought out.
Wow! How impressive! Absolutely wonderful design! The best so far.
I think this is the most unique and creative design I’ve ever seen! I love how everything flows together throughout the home. The custom furniture is gorgeous and compliments each space. The kitchen is functional and beautiful. Well done!
My goodness, what an incredible job these two have done on this flat. It’s lovely! Well done!
A wonderful design and fabulous use of space 😊
It's really clever and smartly done. There is no loss of light or storage. I find the bathroom a bit confining. But they created a very practical and peaceful feeling place. Hard to do in a lower level with small square footage and they fit in two sleeping pods and a study to boot!
very well-thought, love the colors, the pocket doors, the added storage everywhere... beautiful and quirky!
I really appreciate and even took some notes of certain elements of this unique design like the curved edges of the entry hall closet. However, I think they could have make a much better use of the space. Which is actually quite big. Most people in the comments mentioned the sleeping area (that I also struggle to call bedrooms), but personally my biggest issue is the kitchen. The counter space is very limited and the fridge isn't sufficient for a single person living there full time, let alone a small family (hence the need for two *bedrooms* I assumed) They could have easily integrated a full size fridge and a decent-sized kitchen island to compensate for the lack of counter space.
I think she's been featured before and she always bring a peaceful but dinamic energy to the video and of course the project c:
Wow! That was powerful, first time of many!
Thank you so much!
Greetings from México! 🌻✨
Love it!
Such a masterpiece! Well done Studio Mama.
