    It's obviously not going to be stylistically to everyone's tastes, but I love that he has made it his own and enacted his vision. It actually looks incredibly cosy. Great to see a Never Too Small episode that is a home with character and not just another soulless AirBNB.

      My thoughts exactly ... it is not my style, but it works for this space and for sure for those who live there. And you can see that this appartment is lived in and has his own character, love it ... he did such a great job with this space.

    Finally, a space that isn't white or beige and no plywood. The functional kitchen and bathroom and lively terrazzo could be a backdrop for any style. I do love seeing such a colorful and artistic space.

    The design is definitely not for everyone, me included but boi this is such a refreshing episode. Standout from the sea of same-same minimalist deco in many episodes (which I like haha). I love how most of the quirky and fun touch done to the space referring to a ton of culture icons, makes the design meaningful and thoughtful.
    Salute to the owner for having unique taste 👍🏼

    the level of 'publicness' is incredible to be achieved in a small apartment like this. The living room is like a gallery, everything is nicely arranged at its best position to be admired; so little space in the closet; And the bathroom! almost felt like walked into a toilet of a restaurant or bar. It's really bold, not just the colors, but the series of decision making of what kind of space you want to live in.

    I do love everything about this.. i m only a little worried if storing the clothes in the shower area would get them damp and mouldy after a while, i would imagine, since i didnt see any windows there that could at least rid the space of some of the humidity. how did you solve this or is this at all an issue? maybe the cupboard doors are enough to prevent this, intuitivly i would say it won t , but maybe i wrong, and it works fine.. in that case, i really think its a very brilliant choice, does anyone have experience with textiles in a wetroom after some time? i really enjoy the quirkiness, the crazy colors and the 3d printed little handles and legs.. i m very surprised what a strong effect those have on the whole room. these alone would make it already very unique and then all of these artpieces arranged together.. its a feast for my eyes. thank you for sharing.

Personally the decor isn't to my taste but the couple are artistic so it's par for the course. The square meterage was generous too, a rare find. Cheers DougT 🇫🇴
