    I am a doctor and discovered your channel during the height of the pandemic shut down. My days were filled with caring for sick and anxious patients and your channel was one bright spot in my otherwise depressing and stressful life. When I hear the music starting and ending your videos it makes me happy. I love to watch the makeovers, but just hearing your music makes my day brighter.

Although I'm sure you have a really nice big home! , I watch these bc this is what I can afford...well, not so much anymore, my studio was $500/mo but now they are as much as a one bedroom!

    The inspiration pictures were so pretty! I feel like the olive green and mustard were more 70s vibes than the pastel aesthetic the client liked 😔

    • @MsJoli22
      @MsJoli22 3 месяца назад +3

      I agree, I dont think she really followed the inspiration and wishes of the client in this makeover when it came to the color scheme. The inspiration pictures were so nice and felt more fresh and "happy" instead of these more earthy colors (total 70's vibe). The shape of the furniture and details were on point, just the colors that where a bit off.

  • @feliciamoore7808
    @feliciamoore7808 7 месяцев назад +146

    I absolutely love the makeover, as always! I was a little disappointed that more of the aqua/turquoise from the client's inspo wasn't used. I know Alexandra loves pink, and the client was obviously happy, but those blues were beautiful. I would have loved to see more of that color, and not so much pink, even in future makeovers.

    I think her studio looks really great. Although there is very little green from her original inspo boards which I thought were very botantical. She has all that amazing light and could have had so many more plants. I love everything you do and hate saying anything negative but feel that we could have replaced the mustard colors with greens. The furniture is perfect. You are so talented.

    • @peggyoneil2123
      @peggyoneil2123 7 месяцев назад +8

      I came here to say the same thing, I know Alexandra's color is pink but I think she let that over run this design more when it should have based on the inspo.
      Edit: it seems I missed that the client said her favorite colors were pink and purple but I still dont think that means Alexandra should have ignored the inspo so much. Just because someones favorite color is pink doesnt mean they want to live in it.

      To be fair, _good quality_ keyboards, monitors, and mouses are pretty expensive, especially if you're just changing them out for aesthetics. Though, of course, there are simpler swaps like keycaps available (and I think they make decals/stickers for non-mechanical keyboards,) and desk mats/mousepads are definitely a reasonable idea.

    Great redo. Very feminine. It would be nice to see a few more for men. It would be interesting to see what it costs to do a make-over. And, to see an undo of things when a tenant moves out and see exactly how much work is involved. I love your studio makeovers.

    Wish you put in the bed with storage she seems like she needs it. And personally I really hate that wall with "tile" wallpaper and swivel but can't say anything against the fact that it's made really well, great work. And as long as she likes it it's all that matters.

For me the most fun is at the end where she pulls all these amazing finishing touches out of a hat. That's when the real transformational magic reveals itself.

  • @aryanegouvea
    @aryanegouvea 7 месяцев назад +15

    it is kind of scary the diference between the inspo and the final. the inspo is much more adult, and realistic/literal with the flowers on the paperwall. dont get me wrong, looks beautiful and fun, i would love this place, but it is sooo far along the inspo, the color palet, the style and all

    It's so funny how much you love white compared to how much I hate it. All of the rentals here just have white walls, so your bright white is my renter's beige. I have been renting since I graduated over a decade ago and finally landed ina rental that the last tenants painted without the landlord's consent and I am so happy! The beige is so much warmer than the white! It just feels so much more like a home! It is not the color the landlord wants it to be, but he's not gonna bother painting it till we move out, I haven't told him my feelings, but obviously I am totally fine with that.

      I disagree, her whole aestehic is boho/mid century and it’s lot girly, and it shows in every design. I like the desings, but the “clients” show her different interior style and it always ends with boho elements (even tho little muted). I watched some episode, where the style of client was more minimalist and japandi style and the reno ended muted more white boho, even tho it’s still beautiful I would like to see completely different style

    • @MsEgwene
      @MsEgwene 7 месяцев назад +5

      ​@@barboragimesova4587Yeah, I agree with you. If you look at the inspo, I see very little of it in the end result. Don't get me wrong, I love Alexandra and her style! I just don't think she caters to the preferences of the person she does a makeover for that much. To take this specific one as an example, there's no soft green or eggshell blue millwork. She said she loves walls to have color yet Alexandra chose white, as she often does. The style still suits the person she did it for, but I think that's more because they likely responded to a "who wants a pastel scandi small apartment makeover?". Of course people are happy when they want an AG makeover and they get an AG makeover! And rightfully so!

    Overall I love the design but I feel like some of the spaces end up a little cramped. The locker in the entry way is lovely, but seems a bit too deep for the space. Something the same height or a bit taller but a little less deep would have made it fell less cramped. The ottoman is also really cute but there just doesn't seem like there is enough space to walk through that area.

    My goodness, some of these comments are not it! Rest assured Alexandra, your design vision for this space is lovely. As a designer you are hired for how YOU approach the space, how YOUR creativity pairs with a client’s inspiration. Anybody can pick a paint color off Pinterest, but creating a unique and harmonious space is a skill! So keep doing you, girl. You’re amazing. 💗

    I love your videos. I have a suggestion. I think Graham's work area could use a make over. (Where he made the squiggles, it is a garage space?) It looks like it could use a clean up, some organization, and maybe a new work table. Would love to see a video of this and maybe learn a little more about Graham and how he started in his line of work.

    Loved the inspiration board the client brought -- but was sad to see the gold/brown color of the squiggle (Pinterest design more sophisticated) and the brown check in wallpaper. Why not stick with the pastels she had chosen. I would have suggested a desk with more lower storage and a longer console would again have provided the tiny space with more storage. Layout is very good.

    @annaryan4803 7 месяцев назад +2

    I live in an apartment with old, cheap, plain cabinets. I decorate them with contact paper. (Amazon has several choices in several colors and patterns. There may be other sources too.) I choose pastel floral print contact paper, it transforms by kitchen in bathroom! My bathroom was dark, until I covered the cabinets with floral print contact paper! So, was my kitchen. I also decorated parts of my kitchen appliances with floral print contact paper.

    This is a gorgeous makeover! I noticed that the color and texture of the headboard reads a bit like sofa upholstery, so it’s less like a bed and more like living room decor. You do so much with a small space.

    Hi, Thanks Alexandra. With much respect, (1.) I loved the bluish green that Melissa was so focused on, however I see very little of it and will refrain from commenting on the wallpaper. (2.) I feel that the tiny bedside table(s) will be difficult to reach with such a curved headboard. (3.) Yes, LOVED the covering of the electrical panel with the magnet. This was brilliant☺️. (4.) The desk is FABulous. (5.) And the frame🖼️ for the TV is marvy🙂. (6.) And the track lighting covers are an excellent idea. …Oh my. Please skip the bangs, sorry. I feel that they would add too much (and horizontal) to your small frame. Cheers🙂.

  • @rtd1791
    @rtd1791 7 месяцев назад +2

    Maybe the video is deceptive in that it is hard to tell that the pieces Alexandra used to replace Melissa’s previous storage are actually bigger. The pink locker in the entry way is bigger in every dimension than what Melissa had before. You can tell by the pink locker’s reflection in the mirror when Alexandra is making the bed around 22 minutes into the video.
    Also the console locker under the tv is about twice as wide as little cabinet Melissa had floating in front of the window. It also looks slightly deeper. Then there’s also the shelves both above the bed and the desk. The ottoman also has storage.
    I don’t know if Alexandra increased under the bed storage, but she made it easier to access. And there was still space between the drawers and the headboard wall that could be used for storage.
    Maybe the color of the new storage pieces made it hard to tell their actual size? Alexandra actually increased the amount of storage in the studio.

  • @franteague4555

    Love it as always. Just beautiful. But the bed table is to small for function. The bed head board curve will block out table while in bed.

  • @leandrajustme

    Hello team AG, I'm speechless! In my personal opinion, this is the best transformation yet. The symbiosis of colors and textures and the unique style are beautiful. I have been living with a severe depressive phase for about 3 years and I am in a state of change. I'm working less, doing sports again and planning to completely renovate my dreary and messy apartment. The kitchen will be delivered in February and that will be the start of a new phase in my life and creating my “safe space”. Your videos inspire me in ways that are difficult for me to put into words. I find the courage to use color and think outside the box. Thank you and your team for the outpouring of creativity, joy and fun. I'm really looking forward to November. Your Lea ❤️

  • @Eloiseat6
    @Eloiseat6 7 месяцев назад +3

    Very nice for her taste, with some colors she likes, like mauve and other shades of purple/pink. I would die in a place like this because of those colors. But I do like the golden yellow of the squiggle molding! I wish, and was hoping, you would have incorporated that gorgeous blue on the door in one of her inspo photos, instead of so much pink, mauve, and shades of purple. But that’s just me. You did a great job for Melissa’s taste.

  • @hikersteph
    @hikersteph 7 месяцев назад +3

    I just love the variety of different design styles you play with Alexandra! This one is probably the closest to my own style - I just love the bright + cleanness of Scandi style but I always add pops of color to make it feel more happy and less neutral.
    I also love getting to sit in on the entire process, from consultation to DIYs to reveal! I feel like I'm always learning something that I could apply to my own space. Keep it up!

  • @veronicajensen7690
    @veronicajensen7690 7 месяцев назад +2

    I really like how the floor plan is !!!!! much better use af the space , love the dining chairs, and the office space, also like the rug that is Scandinavian to me-that said Scandinavians would never use so many pastels -as a Dane I would chose wood over painted dresser alternatively white of black -we tend to only use a pop of color so either in paintings, or in the sofa or the rug but not like that- the thing on the wall seems like it belong in a child's room -no Scandinavian would have such a thing --so I would not call it Scandinavian -------when Danes do pastel and they usually don't it would be more like buying a Paul Henningsen lamp in pastel , or a Arne Jacobsen Ant chair in pastel instead of the usual white or black --the more fun kind of people would paint a door pastel green or maybe the bathroom -but most people would just buy some Royal Copenhagen tea mugs and that may be in a mix of colors as they are behind a cabin door and not part of he design until guest comes and then you see the "Danish pastels"

    That’s quite the reach around the headboard to reach that shelf. My only criticism.

    • @tarbhnathrac2486
      @tarbhnathrac2486 7 месяцев назад +4

      I thought the same. I think that pouf seat should have been one with the lid that reverses into a tray table. She could use it as a bedside table when there's little or no company, or as a chairside table for guests, and only need to flip the top to seating when there's many guests. With the four chairs to the dining table, she has plenty of seating ...

    • @suziejames7510
      @suziejames7510 7 месяцев назад +4

      Yes, I don't think the shelf works either not with the curved headboard. It's also so small it's useless. Good idea about a seat with a reversible top, a much better solution.
