      It's not a studio if it doesn't have it's own bathroom and kitchenette. It's a room for rent. Don't let the realtors fool you with their terminology. And technically "micro" studios are illegal in NYC but then again many housing things are in NYC

    • @ShortRound42
      @ShortRound42 3 года назад +1

      Micro apartments are illegal in NYC.
      A legal minimum is 150sq. ft. NOT including bathroom and kitchen in the square footage. With the 150 square feet you must additionally have Kitchen and bath.
      Kitchen MUST have stove, refrigerator, sink and a cabinet plus a vent (fire safety) and bathroom MUST have sink, toilet and shower or tube.
      This in Boston is most probably an illegal 'apartment' due to it's size.
      Have some dignity when searching for apartments. Don't settle on what these landlords are doing illegally to you.
      Plus an average prison cell in the US is 92 square feet.

    I notice every one of your small appliances are plugged in. I worked at a huge home insurance company and our biggest claims were fires caused by small appliances kept plugged in. Coffee machines were the worst and air fryers second. They will literally short out and blow up right before your eyes. If you are not at home, you will arrive home to see everything burned down and everything you have gone forever. Please avoid this by unplugging your appliances ASAP and only plug in while using It's not a question of IF it will happen, but WHEN. Please don't take the chance.

  • @heidibee501
    @heidibee501 Год назад +4

    That was nice. I love the lights. And plants are so important in a small space because they take in all that carbon dioxide we exhale with every breath. They keep the carbon (essential to plant growth) and put oxygen back in the air. Throw in light and moisture and plants will thrive. With a micro studio you have that cozy vibe built in, and you have made the most of it.

    If you don't have an oven a toaster oven is just as good. Living small is about finding lots of things that do two things at once. Almost everything from my lounge stool to my island/butchers block has storage in it, or as part of it. I even got storage racks from Ikea as well as one of the Kallax 5x5. Living in a small space generally also is about keeping things clean and tidy. It's hard to do when you've got such a small space.
    I like it, but your coat hook is really busy. You could fit another shelf underneath your kitchen bar also for that small American sized studio kitchen.
    I live here in Australia in about the same sized space and I was able to fit a double. Although a lot of my storage space is vertical... Which using vertical space also helps in such a small space. If you want space for a bed and you're willing to go up, you can use a loft bed and put the couch underneath it.

    awesome apt! you did very well and gave great tips. i especially like the white theme. i had a studio apt in Seoul, South Korea, and everything was white, which made the space feel bigger. i would also like to see the bed unfolding demo and more tips on compact living. i'm looking for a studio apt in LA now.
