Natasha's 750 sq ft apartment in Brooklyn serves as a gorgeous sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of NYC. "When I moved in, I knew I wanted to create a happy space that was reminiscent of the peaceful Caribbean islands," says Natasha, "but without taking away from the beautiful apartment features, like the fireplace, molding, and beautiful hardwood floors." By using lighter woods and neutral furniture combined with blue accents, abstract art, and plenty of plants, Natasha has curated a perfect marriage between Brooklyn brownstone and beach bungalow.

![เกิดใหม่ทั้งทีก็เป็นสไลม์ไปซะแล้ว ซีซั่น 3 - ตอนที่ 58 [ซับไทย]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/TgNEbYSTY0Y/mqdefault.jpg)
Hello, everyone! Wow, it's so nice to see the final video! 🙂Thank you everyone for all the very sweet comments and questions (I'll try to answer as many as I can soon). One thing I wanted to address was that after watching the video, something stuck out to me around how I spoke about my parents' economic background. My intention was to honor and thank them for the sacrifices they made for me and my brother so that we could have as many opportunities as possible, which for me, includes being able to make a life for myself in New York City. I know my parents have only happy, fond memories of their home country and their upbringing, even though they might not have grown up with as many modern luxuries I take for granted every day. And that's something I believe we all strive for, no matter our background or situation. So in that way, there were very rich indeed. Thanks again and I'm so thankful Apartment Therapy offered me this opportunity to share my little home with everyone. :)
Lovely home! Love your journey (and your parents' journey, too). I can relate with the immigrant experience and how our parents sacrifices and struggles were worthwhile for the future generations.
Where is your amazing dress from???
@@janetton Oh, thank you! I love hearing that, and know so many people can relate to this.
The dress is from a brand called Joie, but I used Rent the Runway to rent it. :)
Love your style . I thought you were going to say your family came from Mexico due to the framed Mexico piece on your Gallery wall. It's really beautiful. Where is it from?
@@pray4ashleyb Based on her last name If I were to guess I would guess her family is from Guyana.
@@pray4ashleyb Oh, nope -- that was an art piece I got in a recent trip to Mexico City, at a gallery called Mooni! :)
I am totally in love with her apartment! There is nothing I would change. Everything is in harmony without being matchy-matchy.
Gorgeous apartment. So nice and cozy, and preserves the original classic character of that pre-war aesthetic. Well done decorating Natasha!
Beautiful apartment..God bless her 🙏
As a first generation Mexican-American, I couldn’t relate more to this piece. A true inspiration, thank you for sharing your incredible home!
thank you so much! I know there are so many people who may have similar stories!
After reading all the wonderful comments, I am even prouder of Natasha’s achievements. It is every parents dream to see their child succeed, I love her and I am proud of her, I wish her continued success. Love ❤️ you
You have a wonderful daughter! 😊
This intelligent lady is living the life I dreamed of when I was her age . I’m proud of her .
What a beautiful space she made into a home 🏡
Beautiful interior 😍😍😍.
What impressed me more than the beautiful home was the heart of this lovely young lady.
How lucky you are to have found an apartment with gorgeous architectural elements in place. You've done such a lovely job decorating it. Living alone, I wouldn't miss having doors on my bedroom, but you could always create a fabric wall with ceiling-hung draperies for more privacy.
She did a wonderful job with the furniture arrangement and decor. So pretty 😍
I love that you mention that you did not come from money. I'm also in Brooklyn and grew up poor. When I moved here it was so intimidating to see so many rich kids have it easy. I work hard, save, and am still not in my own apartment yet but I know it will happen. It's rare to see people on shows like this that are not privileged. Thanks for the inspiration!
I actually like how the bedroom is . Feels like it’s own room
This is a lovely apartment. Her father is so talented! I'm more of a traditionalist, but the furniture and colors that she has chose are beautiful and she used the space very wisely. I love her dog!
I completely agree!!!
She's so genuine and thankful. Beautiful, young woman.
I love her. She is so pretty, her outfit of choice is pretty and her apartment is pretty. Her narrating at the end about her life and journey is so inspiring. ❤
Yes, the apartment is gorgeous, but the real star of this piece is this inspiring young lady.
I love everything about this apartment, including its owner. She's so humble and lovely.
Absolutely gorgeous apartment ! So light, stylish and comfortable. Apartment Therapy great job!
Gorgeous space
One of the most beautiful apartment tours I’ve seen, she has excellent taste.
Beautiful apartment! You get such wonderful light.
I think your background has made you both humble and determined.
I am proud of you and I don't even know you!
You will go far in this world.
Beautiful apartment that reflects your sweet soul. I bet your parents are very proud.
Very tranquil looking. I felt cozy just watching the video
Her apartment is gorgeous. I love all the architectural details of old buildings. They don't make them like that anymore.
Great apartment bones for decorating fun. Natasha has created a comfortable home for her and Maddie.
What a beautiful apartment. It looks a lot bigger than 750 sq. ft. You have really used the space wisely and it feels light, bright, and spacious. Just lovely.
While the apartment is stunning, for someone who may not be a classically trained designer, she did a beautiful job. But what really made this episode fully heart warming was her story of overcoming challenges. ❤
Thank you so much! My intention was to share that it's possible for you to achieve your dreams, no matter where you come from, and I hope to help as many people do that as possible through expanding educational opportunities.
The architectural details of your apartment are "off-the-hook", and your decorating style perfectly complements your apartment!!!!
That apartment is a gem--such glorious details! The moldings, the fireplaces, the floors. I love when a beautiful old place like this gets matched with someone it deserves like Natasha, who has only enhanced its sense of style. The palette she used makes it feel even more light and airy, and I love the pieces she chose, like that cool coffee table. What a magical retreat.
The coffee table is tacky.
What a beautiful apartment. Amazing designs. I am very impressed. The neutral pallete makes it stunning. 😊
That apartment is swoon worthy. She has a excellent eye for design.
This so good in so many ways.....congratulations!!!!!!!!!
Parquet flooring is a classic charm...Two fireplaces, awesome focal points.. In a small space when you bring something in something has to go out..No room for errors / clutter.. Multipurpose items are essential....💯👍. Cohesion....Not disturbing the original charm and character is a game changer..
BEAUTIFUL building! 😍😍
Exquisite! A best, soft and comfortable look of minimalism. And Maddie... adorable.
Maddie says thank you 🐾
What a beauuutiful apartment! Warm, delicate, quirky and elegant! ❤
I love your approach to color. Some people do strictly white, but you have pastels that add color in a soft way, and the occasional punch of color with blue. Because blue is a calming color it's not a hard punch that screams for attention. You also do colors in small scattered pieces so it feels balanced, not chaotic. ❤ Beautiful. Well done.
Beautiful apartment with abstract art, and plenty of plants> Love the architectural detail.
Awe she seems like a such a sweet individual! Happy that she as able to find her own space in New York because it is not easy!
Love the layout change. The bedroom looks so nice and cozy in that spot. Those huge windows throughout the space are amazing. Really co that your dad helped with the gallery wall and even painted a piece for you. Makes the space a lot more homier, and special.
Great video. I Iove that the apartment still has some of its original features 💜
Light and airy. Not overdone. Love it.
Beautiful. Continue to believe and go beyond
Beautiful apartment and equally beautiful soul.
Such a pretty warm cozy space! She has great design and decor taste 👌
An old lady living by the sea in the South West of England couldn’t be further way from a NY Lifestyle but have to say this is totally charming. Well done.👍🏼
A beautiful apartment! I like how the coastal theme is not so obvious, but is running throughout. I like how minimal the possessions are, as it has lots of “breathing room.” Proud of her accomplishments and how she gives back to the community to help others! 😊
What a beautiful space and it reflects her bright, down-to-earth personality so well!
Very nicely decorated ... made the very best with the space.
That is truly adorable. She knows her style. I’m dirt poor..and you learn to only have what you love. 😊
It's so true! Thank you for sharing.
I love the original architectural features in the apartment! Very spacious for a NY apartment!
Those fireplaces! Yes, I heard and saw they are not working but they still are stunning. Nice light in this home. Thirteen foot high ceilings is splendid. A tub in the bath! (The gown is sumptuous). Thank you.
Cute doggie! And your dad is quite the artist. Love your apartment!
I love your apartment. It is perfect and beautiful. From my brief look around, I would add two things. I would close the left door opening to the bedroom by placing a tall piece of furniture on the dining room side with a tall piece of furniture on the bedroom side, each could not be too deep and with doors, providing a lot of storage. My second thought is to hang a drapery at the bathroom door opening so a guest could have privacy. Thanks for the tour, oh and your dog is precious!!
you've done a perfect job on the apartment AND you are 100% correct about education. Good for you!
Nice story, too. You seem like a very nice person and I LOVE your place. I agree about a small light in kitchen. I think your light could be replaced with a smaller unique lamp. The one you have feels a bit oversized. But again --love space, very bright and open and WOW so jealous of the windows, the floors, the fireplaces --all those good "bones."
Oh, I love that idea about a smaller, unique lamp! NYC has so many at thrift stores -- I'll be on the lookout! :)
What a beautiful apartment and I love your story. The fireplaces add to the appeal of this home.
Love your home. There is nothing wrong with being proud of your accomplishments and honoring your parents for your upbringing. ❤
Stunning apartment decorated beautifully! 😍
Beautiful. Your parents must be so proud.💜
What a great apartment! She did a great job picking everything out for the overall design. AND theres a FREE washer drier! In many Chicago apartments that unheard of let alone NYC! That’s awesome ✌️!
Yes but it's almost $3K/ month so that's not a good trade-off.
@@Heyu7her3 That’s actually cheap for NYC.
@Heyu7her3 That’s a matter of opinion…Yours. It’s actually a fair price for such a lovely apartment in the current NYC market. Salaries are also higher here.
Haha, yes, the free W/D is certainly a perk the entire building enjoys! :)
absolutely beautiful! i felt so relaxed watching this.
wow the decor and interior design is absolutely amazing! its so perfect! I was also impressed by her saying, that her parents wanted their children to have a better life - they must be soo proud! 👏👏 I loved every second of this video ❤️❤️
Well. ...this is truly refreshing, A.T. .... As I was watching this, I immediately picked up on her ' Energy " and Aura. ... Humble ,grateful.... she's proud of what she as been able to accomplish in her life , sans the " I'm so great ," cockiness that I often see here.... the way she speaks of her Family is with care, honour and gratitude.... knowing that they might not have had the certain luxuries she is able to enjoy. ( I believe this is true for a majority of us ).
Her space is not particularly my style ,since I'm more of Cottage/ Transitional/ English decor type gal..( oh... Those details in her Apartment ..I was swooning over the floors, moulding, etc. ) .. ; However, it is soooo lovely... she did a wonderful job on the arrangement of rooms, and it has a serene vibe ,even with her living so close to the street ,etc.
Her attitude about Life, about who she is... not ostentatious, yet confident.... her parents should be proud of her ,it seems that what they desired to instill in her ( values, work ethic, it all shows up ) they indeed did do that. Cheers and many Blessings to you , Miss Natasha .
When the dog saw the pink balloon! 😂😂Love her decorating style!
Very beautifully done and allows the apartment to be the focus with "Just the right amount" of decor and furnishings.
Color scheme is perfect. So calming
What a beautiful home. Love the peaceful feel of it!
What an adorable apartment!
Gorgeous!! I really like how you very consciously selected pieces to display -- it really adds such beauty to your home. ❤️ 🏡
No, I love where you have the desk! Sometimes a "work corner" is better than a desk with a view.
I would be distracted from my work with people watching.
LOVE this home - so warm, cozy, well laid out and decorated! Love the home owner even more!!
I’m in love with both the fireplaces❣️Beautiful apartment and very big for NYC area. I’m so glad she said she didn’t come from money and has worked really hard to have what she has. It looks like a million bucks!
Such a cute place! And the doggy is just ❤❤❤
What a charming young woman. And that apartment is to die for. Absolutely gorgeous. I totally concur on the bedroom and living room placement. Beautiful!
Precious few things in life are worth dying for, and an apartment isn't among them.🙄
@@l.a.3479 Seriously? You're joking, right? "To die for" is an idiom. Your comment makes me wonder if you're an idiot. Hahaha! Just kidding. Maybe English is your second language and you don't get it. Have a nice day, hope you don't "kick the bucket". Another idiom.
It's inviting, cosy, open, light. Tastefully decorated. You crushed it girl.Thanks for a glimpse into yr gorgeous crib💃💕😍💐🏡🌸🌹🌺
You have lovely decor and a smart layout, including and especially in putting the bedroom in the back. I suggest creating some sort of door between the bedroom and kitchen. On the cheap and easiest side you can do a curtain. On more expensive side, see if landlord would be okay w/ letting you put in a pocket door at your expense. If you plan to stay there for a long time, it's worth it.
The double doors behind the couch are an opportunity to soften the noise from the entrance. Hanging a neutral colored rug /tapestry / quilt for example. That 2 or 3 inch space filled with ? could act as a sound barrier.
Absolutely gorgeous!! I love that blue is your accent color!!
Love her style! And that dress. Swoon. She belongs in that pretty space.
Thank you for sharing your home . Lovely serene space . Great message about helping people in life 😘.
Beautiful. I really like the lightness of it.
Beautiful, stylish, and cozy
I absolutely love this apartment and the way it's styled. Absolutely beautiful and calming.
Beautiful flat and raison d'etre 💝
I absolutely love her apartment. Generally, I'm not a fan of placing the tv next to the fireplace but in her living room, it actually doesn't bother me. Everything just meshes so well together. Very cozy and warm apartment! ❤️🥰
I think this is the best value for the money I've seen yet in a New York city apartment. Beautiful space.
I loved her apartment decorated so airy and thoughtfully. She also has a humane helpful spirit. 💛
Starts with a beautiful home. Ends with a beautiful soul.
Beautiful and peaceful space.
Her advice to the public at the end is wonderful.
Costal in an apartment can be tricky, she got the overall effect well throughout the flat 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I want to watch 🍿 this apartment over n over again...I want to copy her style of the beach...the long beautiful 🥰 beach style dress ! Her beach 🏖️ inspired theme n shapes and love 💕💕💕🌹🌹🌹 for color white is so unique n amazing ! I love blues , blue and lime green combined with white ! The high ceilings
Loved every inch of this place
When brownstones that were built as single family homes are converted to apartments, some floors aren't easily divided. You're on the "parlor" floor, so there wouldn't have been a need to have doors between the sitting room and maybe a library. But what you've done is beautiful. (And I heard nothing but love regarding your parents' life. 🙂)
Exactly. When choosing a flat in a converted house, I always prefer the main floor as the rooms tend to be bigger and have higher ceilings. But the nicest flat I ever had was in a 1904 brown shingle home--I had an old bedroom for my kitchen and bath, and my main room was the former upstairs parlor, complete with built-ins and a lovely working fireplace. I still miss that flat! Did you notice the double doors behind Natasha's couch? I'm guessing that they're the original doors from the foyer--French doors as opposed to pocket doors, I guess. I'm sure that's why she said that she could hear everyone coming and going, too. I'd put up drapes over them if I lived there--I'm sure she never opens them and it would help with noise.
❤️💜❤️ 💜! From one New Yorker to another, Beautiful apartment!
thank you!! 🗽nyc forever
Wow, Awesome! Beautiful space, beautiful person, and beautiful fur baby. Love all the natural light and the blue on white color way.
Young Lady, You scored a one in a million fabulous prewar apartment. So many wonderful hard to find architectural elements. Also, the decor you chose is a combination of part New Yorker sophisticate and part a woman that loves her family
Love this place, she did an amazing job decorating as well
