She was taking everything so seriously as if mom was showing her how to manage the nuclear reactors to save the world. I would love to know what was going through her head, she was sooo serious

    This is the average size of a Swedish apartment, so I wonder if that's why your IKEA store went with this size. Sweden is also the country with the most single households (20% of the population), so that explains why our apartments are smaller. Some Swedish facts for y'all, lol.

    I wouldn't suggest storing any sort of linen above a toilet, unless it is enclosed in something. With guys using the bathroom, your linens will invariably get backsplash, and smell accordingly.
    Also, I wouldn't put stools near glass, as knees are sure to break it.

      not doable for a married couple with children. I can tell you it is common for kids to climb into parents’ bed while one is working at the desk. Sometimes it is optimal to keep them all in 1 room if the other parent is out and one needs work done, especially when the living room is not suitable for writing,/using laptop, etc. just uncomfortable to setup in living room.

      @leighsutherland6222 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I agree about the cluttered look. However, it is very popular. What is organized to someone may not be to your taste, but it does not mean it is not organized. I do not understand your comment about closets. Most modern styles use open shelving and storage hooks! Closets are not modern. Walk in closets are more common than in the past, but certainly closets have been around for ages.

    • @finned958
      @finned958 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Leigh Sutherland In reference to closets, Ikea was showing a storage area with curtains. This may happen if you have a loft apartment, which Ikea seems to suggest what it’s furniture is designed for. Most homes have closets with doors to hide your stuff. Yes, closet organizers have open shelving and hooks, but you close the door and no one sees your stuff. It’s better to have a built in closet with doors. Even better to have a walk-in closet.

      TUMBLE HOME Yup, Ikea makes a dishwasher that works with their cabinet doors so you can integrate it. I plan to do that in our kitchen when we renovate. We have a super small kitchen so I think it makes the kitchen appear bigger if you don’t break a run of cabinets with an appliance.

    we recently down sized by over 900 sq we went from 2400 to 1500. So freeing to lose all the hassle of caring for so much stuff and space. We did how ever do a kitchen remo and used space in the kitchen literally left empty of cabinets or any other storage by the previous owner. I chose not to have a dishwasher. We are empty nested and I wanted the storage more so than the washer, that would take several days to fill before I could justify using it. It also eliminates us ever having to spend the money to replace it. I guess my point is, you're never too old to make a life change, have less baggage in your life, simplify your lifestyle and realize that less can mean more =)

      the obvious thing is not to put anything up there that you frequently use. also being "elderly and handicapped" is a real stupid reason to comment about. you are in the minority, you want them to cater everything to you, and those in your similar situation and waste the space for the majority? they also are not forcing you to buy it all and copy it exactly. and to be honest, physical books are a collecting thing now. there is no reason otherwise, they are more expensive, consume space, and can be lost and damaged. the only reason to have a physical book is to collect and display them.

    Sunday at IKEA! You are very brave! I love IKEA! The baby is SO cute! My favorite apartment was 600SF; plenty for a single guy, tho I even had temporary roommates, wouldn't recommend it! LOL!

    I saw one of their model in Stockholm which was 375 sqft. Perfect for a couple or a single person. I was amazed the way they utilized that space with everything. sofa turned into a bed,storage space,washer dryer ,dishwasher,shower space .I mean whats not there!And the design amazing!

      Tasneem Shams SPACE is what’s not there. Most of us have more stuff than will fit. I’m in my seventies and don’t want to open an uncomfortable sofa bed and put sheets and blankets on it every evening. My books, camping gear, and filing cabinets would fill the whole thing without any furniture. Fine for someone who likes this, but most won’t, so her repeatedly saying “This is all you need” is absurd.

      Kathy Young True! Everyone has different needs and this might certainly not be enough space for “all you need”. Tiny home living is more about trying to pair down things we don’t need. Anyway, thanks for watching!

    I like the 750(?) sq ft display they have. My only concern is placement of windows while maximizing wall space for storage.

    The only thing we are not noticing is when you have no ceiling it looks larger. Plus there are walls missing

    For high storage, those scissor-extension pull-downs... Lever action... Let the features do the heavy lifting... so many modern tech innovations...

      @ackman3981 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      That might not be safe for small children. They like to touch things and might hurt themselves. No matter how "safe" it is made. That is more suited to older children like teenagers or even adults.

  • @Duke00x
    @Duke00x 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That is like twice (maybe even three times) the size of my apartment. Take the first room (Livingroom and most of the kitchen) and the bathroom and you have my apartment.

    I used to live in a 500 sq. ft. studio apartment and this looks twice as big. I had minimal stuff in mine too and always kept it neat so it wasn't due to having a lot of stuff or anything like that.

      The view IS incredible; sunrise in the am and sunset in the pm - all over the water; can’t get much better than that. Went from 2000 sq. ft. to the 385 and not looking back. The more space you have, the more STUFF you have. Also, it was very cathartic getting rid of all the stuff I DIDN’T need. Love, love, love it. 👍🏼

    One thing they've missed out on is under bathtub storage. I have sliding doors instead of a panel on the bathtub.

Not sure why i got your channel but was fun to watch. Good thoughts and well wishes to you and your family....and your River as well

    Idk. Looks a bit cluttered to me. I don't think you need a double wide island if you have a dining area.
