Apartment therapy, a lifestyle and interior design community sharing design lessons from real people; they even have a youtube channel sharing…you guessed it… apartment tours! There is even a playlist showcasing teeny tiny spaces. 18 to be specific. So I watched them all. Gathered the best design tips for extreme compact living and made this video.

I love these ideas! Super helpful :) Thank you for summarizing them so clearly and concisely. We just bought a new bed that has this built in lifting mechanism with storage underneath, unconventional but cleverrrr.
Hello, thanks for your videos and your great content. I really like it. The only issue I have if there is a so called backgroundmusic while someone is speaking. In this video it is the case. I wanted to tell you that for many of listeners with very common health issues like tinnitus, adhd, hearing disorders, consentration malfunction, etc. is is very hard to listen to a lecture while music is playing. So maybe you can leave it out and only inspire and excite us with your great content and your lovely voice. :) I hope I don't come across as complaining, but it was really important to me. I sometimes have to stop watching videos because the music is too distracting for my hearing problems. And it's like that for many people. This could even improve your reach, because I know many people feel the same way. By the way, further feedback: you have what it takes to build a very special channel, because you approach these topics from a different, often new perspective. nothing we've heard dozens of times before. Very attractively done and very clear. Kind regards from Vienna/Austria.
Hello! Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing such valuable feedback 😊. I truly appreciate hearing about your experience, and I would want the video to be accessible to as many people as possible!! and I can imagine how background music could be distracting, especially with hearing challenges. I’ll definitely experiment with reducing the volume or removing it in future videos to make my content accessible and enjoyable for everyone - the last thing I want is for the message to get lost! Many thanks again for bringing this to my attention ❤️
Sinks on top of toilets are common in Japan but there are on their way out because while they are sanitary, they’re not really easy or comfortable to use. 1) you have to like stand around the toilet to reach over it. 2) water usually drips all over the toilet and the surrounding floor area until you can grab a towel. 3) it’s just weird to think about the water in the toilet going on to your hands
3:41 I honestly think a LOT more bathrooms should have sinks on top of their toilets. It's relatively simple to install a diy version on top of normal toilet systems and allows for the use of used sink water aka grey water to be used to flush the toilet instead of potable drinking water that is most often used for flushing toilets and contributes to a massive waste of clean water flushed down the drain.
Soap is totally fine in toilets. Actually as a hack, if you have a clogged toilet, sometimes all you need is some soap (preferably dish soap, but handsoap can work) to unclog the toilet instead of taking out a plunger. It's a good tip to help unclog in a pinch if you're a guest somewhere too.
@@ntcssj @baixu I had a brain fart moment sorry hahah I meant since the water is used again for the toilet where would the soap go after washing your hands with it but then I realized it would just clean the toilet with the water lol

Such useful tips! I think we all need to declutter 😅

definitely see the use-case here for small, secondary guest toilets!
Ok but what about the soap in the sink above the toilet one
Soap is totally fine in toilets. Actually as a hack, if you have a clogged toilet, sometimes all you need is some soap (preferably dish soap, but handsoap can work) to unclog the toilet instead of taking out a plunger. It's a good tip to help unclog in a pinch if you're a guest somewhere too.
If you mean where to place the soap, I think there are soak dispensers that you can attach to the wall!
