    Only 2 small things bothered:
    1. Cramped bed space.
    If only you would give more space like 15inches in between bed and divider so he can tidy the bed linen from the other side.
    2. Stickers on upper windows.
    You should put blind stickers only in lower windows and not covering all windows. So there's still a chance to see outside.
    Just my thoughts.

      Oh I've assumed she covered the bottom windows.
      But those can be removed easily otherwise.
      I personally really didn't like the red armchairs - they stick out and not in a good way.
      But I also think he's very particular in his style and the ones he liked are not easy to find (or really expensive).
      The bed is in a frame anyway so more space there would be wasted.

    I am 58 years old. When I was your age, I felt like there was so much pressure to be "grown up". We wore power suits to work, we all wanted to be little Gordan Gekkos, we didn't fill our homes with things we loved and that made us happy - only "status" items that would make us look cool. Now, I just fill my surroundings with things I loved, including books and toys from my youth. I regret the all the time I did without these things. I envy and admire you for filling your home with the things you love. It's absolutely beautiful!

      I don't think the same as you. I believe these videos show a great capacity for creativity and that when it comes to decorating a space, you don't necessarily need to consider only the furniture already designed and made by a company. Instead, you can create something based on your own needs. Later, you can decide whether it's better to do it yourself or go to a professional to design and/or build it.

    While I love the room divider (it's beautiful and so functional), you should have made the entryway narrower to allow space to walk between the room divider and the bed - easier to make the bed, and easier for a second person to get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom without having to climb over the other person.

It takes that creative thought to take it up to that level. This is why you're the professionals!!!

The viewers can send in design inspiration and she could have in-store events at home since sponsored by HomeSense, where she walks the mini-groups or individuals around the store and show them some of the real pearls there at the store and also to show them how it could be styled in their space. The styling in space peace could be virtual like schematics, and if the peopyle choose to use those pieces they would then follow up with a photo op of how it was installed in their space. I'd watch the show!

    Love it. I just subscribed. I would do an Ikea divider for the bed--one that hangs from the ceiling. It doesn't need to be a complete divider that fully obscures the bed. But it could do the work of saying this is a privileged space.

      The divider is way too big for the size of this room. Now 1/4 of the room is dedicated to just the entry and closes off the living space making everything seem much smaller.

So damn good!!!!!

    So funny, I’m also a flight attendant and when you were showing his apartment at the beginning I could see his luggage and I thought “huh, he must be a flight attendant” but then he said he was an actor so I thought he might be travelling a lot but the topper bag is still an odd choice for someone who isn’t flying crew. And then you confirmed my original hunch. I’m happy for my colleague to have this lovely place to go home to. Well deserved. ❤

    I wish Gokhan had more room to stretch out his legs in bed or have his feet dangle over! Also, this sort of bed set-up will mean someone will always need to be disturbed if two people are sleeping in bed.

      @dreamingincolour0 7 месяцев назад +15

      Agreed, my only note on this incredible makeover is that the entryway could easily have been designed a little narrower to give more space at the end of the bed. It would also help with putting the sheets on

    This was sooo beautiful 👏🏾😍 I do have 2 small things I would like to mention though:
    I feel like even though the divider is GORGEOUS, i would’ve made it a tad smaller and left maybe a little room at the foot of the bed for him to make his bed much easier. And it wouldn’t have taken away from the entry way because it was quite large anyways.
    And Second, I feel like we haven’t been seeing enough reactions to the custom features you’ve made for these people! In this one, it’s the hidden acting backdrop. I get so excited about how clever y’all customize things and then we don’t even see what they thought! It’s a bummer honestly!
    But again, beautiful makeover 🤍🤍
