    The NTS team will be making a donation to the Red Cross. You can also help make a difference for people in Ukraine here - www.redcross.org.au/ukraine
    This episode was filmed on February 12th 2022, 12 days before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. We have been asked by the designer of this apartment, Olga Bondar, and our NTS team in Kyiv to share the beauty of Ukrainian design in hope that it will bring further attention and support for the people of Ukraine and the inhumanity of their situation.
    If you’re an architect or designer with a project we could feature, please share it with us at www.nevertoosmall.com/submissions

    This is one of my favourite tiny apartment designs. They managed to fit a comfy sofa, TV that you can actually watch from the sofa and loads of storage without having to climb up a ladder to get to the bed, have a big cube right in the middle of the room or have to rearrange the furniture multiple times a day. Also looks beautiful.

I hope the war will end soon, the life of all Ukrainians has changed drastically in one moment.. Please, to all who reads it, I just want you to know, that Ukraine didn’t want war, we didn’t kill Russian speaking people, the half of the population is Russian speaking, and they lived without any problems, everyone is confirming that, and of course, when in 2014 Russian army invaded Crimea and then Donbass region, Ukraine had to send troops to Donbass to fight against Russian military, not against people, who lived there! That the manipulation, that Russian propaganda tell’s everywhere. Don’t believe them, Ukrainians know better what is going on in Ukraine, than Russia, it’s logical!

Such an apartment is irreplaceable, It might have sentimental artifacts the person had to leave behind and obviously people's lives are the MOST important, but having a home is not something you just get for cheap at a shop. Building your home and customizing it for your lifestyle and personality can take years of hard labor and a lot of financial expenses that the person might not be able to afford after such distraction. A home should be a protected safe place that should not be taken away from anyone. 💛💙

    Isn't it strange how much difference a few days make...
    It gave me goosebumps to see this, and to realize how different the situation is now..
    Heartbreaking...
    But the apartment is wonderfully done! I love the pops of yellow, especially by the window! Brilliant!
    Creating your own sunny feeling is so important when there are long, dark, grey days.
    I also think the very light pink walls help to give the apartment a warm feeling (without the pink being too overwhelmingly pink). If they had been white it would have very easily looked too cold.
    I hope everyone is doing okay and can stay safe.
    And I hope that this madness will stop soon (today!)! 💗

Strange thing is, the UK cut back its aid to Yemen last year at a time when aid agencies were warning that Covid, the war and famine was killing kids in the thousands. The UK claimed it could only spare £87 million for Yemen for the whole year in 2021, but suddenly IN 4 DAYS, the UK has been able to raise £100 million for Ukraine. It speaks volumes.

    Beautiful practicality. Appreciate the timing of this video and it’s message in addition to the designer’s work. One of the best uses of space providing practical separation, a great color palette, and enclosed appliances to get the best of a minimalist aesthetic without the impracticality.

    Those yellow accents work so well to breathe life into the space. Such a nicely optimized and comfortable apartment, it's hard to imagine that a beautiful city like Kyiv is turning into a warzone now. I wish strength for people of Ukraine.
    Slava Ukraini!

      Yeah love the yellow around the window too.
      It is done intentionally bright, but also not so forceful it doesn't mesh with the rest.
      Hopefully the sun still shines trough that window 🌞💙💛

      This building was hit by Russian GRADs in March 2022, but the apartments in this building were not damaged much. Just many broken windows and holes in facade. Some other areas of this living complex were damaged a bit more, but by now almost everything is fixed. Thanks for supporting Ukraine!

      Kiev is living its normal life, a lot of refugees from affected regions returned to back to it and rent out places from fellow ukrainians that claim benefits in the EU. Don’t break your heart over them.

    I love the soft colors in the apartment. I usually need color in my home to give it a feeling of warmth and life/energy. The choices of the placement of the furniture, appliances, and basic needs was able to give an airy feel and coziness without feeling cluttered/clostrophobic with the clever ideas of either embedding items in the wall, floating or arranging the furniture or set-up pf the rooms so perfectly. I loved it. I would love to live in a place setup like that. Side note: I'm hoping that the people of Kyiv and the rest of Ukraine can survive this attack from Russia. I wish them continued strength and hoping that the worldwide support for them continues and helps stop this war against them and can bring peace.

    I have been following this channel since last year and I love every video. I would never expect that even you had something to say about this horrendous conflict. The fact that this house might be in actual danger is even more wide opening about the danger of war and how quickly we can go from a privileged situation of peace and prosperity to nothing. Thank you NTS!

    Such a beautiful, airy space with fun pops of colour! I love the simple and practical bespoke furniture too. The built in laundry basket is simply genius! No more laundry baskets getting in the way and taking up valuable floor space. This apartment is easily one of my favourite showcases on this channel. It's heartbreaking to think of this wonderful space forcibly abandoned by its owner because of the war.
    Much love and support from Malaysia. Our government may be too cowardly to speak out, but know that there are those within its borders who are with you. Slava Ukraini! 🌻🇺🇦

    My heart breaks for Ukraine, but their fighting spirit, including their Russian brothers and sisters who protest against this war, amazes and inspires me. These are very hard times indeed but I continuously pray and support you Ukraine. Much love 🇺🇦 ❤️ I hope to visit the brave and free country of Ukraine one day ❤️
