Agree I feel a bit cheated. From the front it looks like a tiny house and the back looks like a typical suburban new build in US or Canada. Such a tease, now I am searching Google maps for street or satellite images of this house.
Hi Karmen, I've been in hard lockdown here in Melbourne for the last few months, so while I haven't been able to film new content, I have been brainstorming moving forward. There have been a lot of comments similar to yours, which I'm taking on board. For a lot of homes (but maybe not every single one) there will be a video similar in style to this one, but I will also produce a second video which will be a bit more of a "traditional" home tour. Stay tune.
Nice home. He also lets us know what kind of struggles (money, family etc) he had and that is often hidden by homeowners. He is sympathetic. Good luck to you and your family.
Beautiful home, well designed by a good, thoughtful architect and obviously loving father! What impressed me even more, is his honesty about the struggles he had while executing the project...This coming from another architect:) The pain then, and the happiness with the result now are all visible in his smile throughout the video.
Incredible. Literally can not commend you enough for doing all that with twins. I have twins and hearing you did this at the same time made my cortisol levels rise. Enjoy this space now. Just chill. It will take years to recover. Hugs to your incredible wife that powered through this stage too x
Please just show the house and the decor. Show and talk about the materials used, the furnishings, the layout, how they use the space. Now all I see is the owner talking about how stressful it was building his home with repeat shots that do not contribute to viewers' understanding of the completed place. I got fed up and stopped watching about two thirds of the way but I hope they explained what was that big rectangular box they kept pushing around.
Australia has some of the best architectural design, i swear, i've followed a few channel like The Local Project, this channel and a few others, damn the Australian architecture and interior design is something else, i have gotten so many inspiration designs for my house through this channel!
Hi A J, thanks for watching and I'm glad you've find some inspiration for your own house, that's why I do this! As for Australia, you're absolutely right in how there is a rich architectural culture here. Sometimes I take for granted, but when I scroll my Instagram, I can't help but marvel at the incredible homes and design Melbourne and the rest of the country constantly delivers.
I enjoyed the video a lot, but would have really enjoyed seeing the floor plan, and some of the design tricks used to get light into the building explained.
While I'm unable to insert the floor plans into the video, the website has them, so you can see just what he did; thedesignemotive.com/more-emotive/hive-x-five-megowan-architectural
I appreciate the vulnerability in this video. As designers we spend lots of time creating beautiful things for clients and you just want something that is quality built and well thought out for yourself. I hope that after going thru that crucible, he and the family really appreciate the space, sometimes the pain you go thru to do something is totally worth it and he didn’t explicitly say it but I assume so.
I did enjoy the story of the process of building it and the toll it takes, I appreciate you talk about that, the realities and challenges of building such a nice space. But I wish there was also a more through tour of the house.
I would enjoy a regular type of home tour next to this too. Not to replace this format but to complement it. Also, it's good to hear realistic stories where everything's did not just magically appear. I would say, looking from the outside in, your space was definitely worth it!
Hi @VM Papillon, I took this suggestion on board and a lot of future videos will have this style of video, and the second upload of a more "typical" tour. Melbourne has been in a hard lockdown for the last few months, but now we're out I can get back out there filming.
Thanks for the personal feedback on your experience & how hard it was. It’s all good and well watching before and after videos, but that kind of feedback is rare.
WOW , what a fantastic design !! absolutely in love with the wholesome approach, it was really endearing to hear that he is blessed with twins because I AM A TWIN ! AND AN ARCHITECT AS WELL hehehe bless you sir
The other spaces are occupied by residents, so they were not available. Plus, this video is part of the An Architect's Home series, so the focus was Chris' apartment and studio.
Open cookbooks between sitting an cooking area, nice detail. I also like the desks in the living room: working as a part of living and living as a part of working.
I'm sorry, but that kitchen nook, near the sliding door was featured way too many times and there was no floor plan or sense of space explained or shown for the ENTIRE home.
Also lesson learnt don’t choose a builder just because he’s the cheapest. Make sure they do quality work and someone you can build a trusting relationship.
While I understand the director's vision regarding this series by focusing on the architect rather than the house, it is flawed in a sense that the audience doesn't get to experience what he himself did. He's physically in the space and no doubt got a tour before filming the interview and he's denying the audience to get a sense of the layout. Throughout this series, people constructively criticize him for this but he ignores them all and only "likes" the praises. 🤷
For the record, all the criticisms have came in the last two weeks, and I haven’t filmed a new house for quite some time due to COVID-19. So I’m not ignoring anything.
Seems like a great architect but a horrendous film maker. It's a video about the house but it just kept showing stills of the same spots zoomed in and out or a close up on the guy being interviewed. How about moving around the house a bit more, i have no idea how the house flows at all.
I didn't make the video, but had I made the video I can guarantee it would have been much, much worse. I think Anthony (who does the series) likes to focus more on the stories behind the structures as opposed to a "this is this and that is that" narrative. The video does show every space in my house (it's just not a particularly big house).
What a great video! I spent quite a long time looking for a channel like this:) A floor plan would be nice to see though. It is not too easy to connect all the views in a contiguous space:)
@@MichaelPanin while I can't go back and insert the plans into the video, they are up on the website; thedesignemotive.com/more-emotive/hive-x-five-megowan-architectural
Gosh. I think the things I've liked (now having watched a few of these types of videos across various channels) are the use of built-in cabinets and manipulation of natural light. Those are elements that I find myself focussing on most in this genre video. I'm a property owner in Los Angeles. But ultimately, for my needs, I have to go through pre-fab, conventional modes--to save the money and the headache.
The space looks amazing. Making and shots are great. But the explanation require more informations like sketches, plans and sections to enhance the talk more visually.
I wanted to see the house and how he utilized the space, but he didn't show us. I echo another comment regarding the brick backsplash. Especially over the stove, brick will be impossible to keep clean. I didn't notice the concrete basin, but it's another one of those trendy but impractical things.
Don't take this comment of mine as defensive, as I've received plenty like this. What would you have liked to have seen / seen more of? Only way to ensure I continue to improve and create content you want to watch more of is by having this dialogue. - Anthony
@@SimpleDwelling the back side of the building reveals so much more is going on with the house but we cant tell which part is the new build. I guess part of this may be for the owners privacy, but is there something going on in in the roof at the back? maybe before after ? floor plans? walkthrough tour? definit;ey a very interesting project.
@@SimpleDwelling I think the Never too small channel always provides a very good amount of information about the space itself. Maybe that could be stg to use as orientation.
@@SimpleDwelling Would like to see entire house. Like to see more features in kitchen, all of the bedrooms, and bathrooms. The episode needs to be longer.

This is beautiful. On every level. It would also be good to see videos of each apartment/shop/studio and how the users experience them. My only reservation is that like the majority of developments, while private spaces may or may not be gorgeous, building to the boundaries does not contribute to public green space.
Nice looking place, he should be proud. One point that would have helped him out, a newborn only needs about 17 square feet. That's a crib, chest of drawers with changing space on top, and room to stand in front of both of them. Two newborns only need 23, if both cribs are at floor level. Bunkbed cribs save space. Toddlers need only a small amount more than newborns. People living in cramped spaces have been having kids for a very long time. The species has survived just fine. He stressed out over nothing.
We are currently living in my home while extensive renovation is going on....to make things even more fantastic we cannot move our stuff anywhere else. While the dust, noise and complete lack of privacy feels horrendous and extremely exhausting....it strangely does have its perks. Entire process is right in front of our eyes. We can quickly understand if something is not fitting properly to our nature of usage, make necessary adjustments and we get to learn a lot.
it's hard to appreciate fully any of the space your showing in your vids because it's like watching a slideshow instead of a visual tour. need to pan out and show more of the actual space and less of the narrators
Summary (to save you watching it) - Twins, twins, something, something, stress, awful, negative, four story mixed use, four story mixed use, twins, two twins, stress, something-something, horrible experience. A few shots of the house. Did I mention he had twins?
In this context: you might design apartments in plan, and then just stack them on top of each other. ‘Sectional approach’ means designing the apartments with section heavy in mind. I’ll assume you’re not sure what a section is, so imagine you cut a sandwich down the middle, and this allows you to see the bread, butter, cheese, ham, lettuce, and bread. Similarly, cut the apartment like a sandwich and design them that way, and that means you look at voids, apartments not directly stacked on each other, etc. I hope this makes sense? But I understand if I just confused you further.
@@SimpleDwelling I think I get it! Instead of designing it by merely looking at the plan (horizontally), we are looking sectionally, that is vertically. Thanks for your explanation. Glad I can learn from your channel.
Love the suggestion but at least for now, we'll upload An Architect's Home videos to this channel and have it in the dedicated playlist. Alternatively, we also have a page on our website; thedesignemotive.com/series/an-architects-home
I love the bathroom design with that high skylight roof above the shower. However, did they really need to get a concrete basin? What was going through their minds? "Oh, I don't hurt myself enough by accidentally scraping my wrist on the basin enough, how about a sharp concrete one?" Otherwise, it's a nice design.
The contractor disappeared prior to completing the frame, which left me with no choice but to take over as the head contractor to organize and even in many instances carry out a decent amount of the work myself. Of course I had the help of dozens of other subcontractors along the way...some very good, some not so good...lots of learning!
Often the story before designing critically informs what they're doing,. so while I appreciate the feedback, we will still be including the "autobiography".
@@SimpleDwelling I loved the story! Really loved that you focused on the story behind the house. Because I had a similar experience with cheap builders, and it almost broke me and my husband! So it's soo good to hear that architects make these errors too, and we're not alone. We're all learning and growing

Yep, his wife is a talented artist, and in fact all the art in the home is by her.
Why does this feel like Never too small?
