    This video will be the first episode of my living room makeover series, where I'll be building a custom 5.4m long sideboard using IKEA Besta units with custom legs and handles. Recently, I moved my work desk inside into a dedicated home office, leaving me with an empty spot in the living room.

    I love the cabinet unit with the tv. The legs and the hardware upgraded the piece tremendously! Great job as always. I’m so excited to see what’s to come.

    So happy this video is finally out! I've been searching high and low for a nice long TV console table with no luck. The wood and black accents is just what I'm looking for! I love the combination 😍👍🏼

  • @rubiirae

    I put the word “minimalist” in the search bar and your name came up. I am so happy to see your videos and have a new respect and knowledge for this style and your esthetic. I look forward to seeing more of your videos and your voice has a very calming tone which adds to the overall effect.

    I can’t wait for the next makeover, I look forward to watching your videos so much :-) You have such finesse for filming and a soothing, calming voice. I especially love how everything is so well thought out and calculated and I appreciate you showing your thought process and why you change your mind about something - removing the swivel arm. So helpful!! :-)

    I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR DESIGNS AND THIS CHANNEL. Choice of colour palette, materials, look and feel, décor, everything. Also, love the narration throughout the video, so seamless and goes well with the rhythm. I so wish to get everything you have, haha :)

  • @rhyes8538
    @rhyes8538 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    First and foremost I loved all your videos, even if not everything you choose represents my style, it still matches very well and kind of satisfies me watching you bringing it all together.
    I would be also interest how you handle the part before you actually buy your sideboard etc.in a more detailed fashion- like the process of creating your moodboard and/or how you choose colors and shapes and arrange them first on your pc

  • @gregorythomasfitness
    @gregorythomasfitness 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Another wonderful video, Reynard! You have inspired me to do the same and make a coffee bar instead of a boring sideboard in my apartment 👍

    Lovely units. I like that you went with IKEA which is affordable and showed how you customised them.

  • @kaikaichen
    @kaikaichen 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Okay, I'm extremely envious that in Australia you're able to get Besta cabinets in that white stained oak finish. Here in the US they don't seem to offer it, and instead offer the light grey walnut finish which I had to settle for.

    • @stephaniedesante3433
      @stephaniedesante3433 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Same in Canada!

    • @gallahant
      @gallahant ปีที่แล้ว

      I am in Europe and it is the other way around. I got 3 besta units in the light grey walnut some years ago and now that i want to add to them, they have reverted to the oak finish, and i am frustrated. What am i supposed to do if i need to replace a drawer front?

    • @nmpoy
      @nmpoy ปีที่แล้ว

      okaaaay. so i just bought the besta cabinet after watching his videos thinking the colour would be this. it just arrived and im so disappointed. it’s gray… and his weren’t gray

    Such a great build! I’ll be moving out in the new year and I can definitely see myself creating something similar to this. 👍

  • @melissac.5948
    @melissac.5948 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    What a wonderful concept and set up. Your living room is so very nice…I can’t wait to see your new couch. Regarding the decor pieces and plants, Coco Chanel said that when you finish dressing you should always remove one accessory. The coffee setup would never be able to damage your console if there was some kind of tray beneath it. A truly appropriate and aesthetically pleasing tray would be nearly impossible to find, but if anyone could…you could.
    Update: A 3/8”-thick piece of glass cut to your specs would do it - especially if the edges did not look too greenish. (Borosilicate glass?)

  • @testtesttest124
    @testtesttest124 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Reynard, I'd love for you to make a video to show where and how you store all of your tools in your condo -- I find this the most difficult to make room for in my condo, since most videos with people using tools are from people who live in houses with garages and tools are kept in the garage space. Also would love to see a video of how you organize your bathroom! I appreciate you taking the time to share your tips!

  • @histoirettes
    @histoirettes ปีที่แล้ว

    I really like the color palette you chose for the living room. I am planning to make over my living room/office and have a smaller couch+coffee table. I love artwork, plants, and texture, but I struggle to choose the right items because lately, I prefer fewer items that need less cleaning and dusting over beautiful colors, shapes, and textures. I don't know how to create a balance with all of that.

    The only thing that was missing in this video is the grand finale. A couple of B roll shots of highlights of the project and then an overall fresh panoramic dedicated to the finale would’ve been great. Don’t get me wrong - your presentation is incredible - I just was found wanting at the end. I hope that helps for future videos. The culmination just brings together the awesomeness of your design presentation.
