I wish they had shown a floor plan, or had done a sequential walk-through so you could understand where each of the rooms is located in relation to the others. Is the bathroom upstairs? Where is the child's room? How do you block off the spiral staircase so the kid doesn't fall down the stairs? Whre is that office located? How many floors in total. Great to talk about your concepts, but it's a very confusing video if you are interested in the actual layout.
Hear hear. I couldn't even figure out where they'd put their toothbrush with the little we got to see of the bathroom. Style over substance. I hope another channel will feature this house and give us a better tour, because the house itself seems wonderful.
@@lsamoa Agreed on all counts. Two sinks and no counter space?? Why would anyone do that to themselves? Otherwise it's a very nicely styled house even if the layout was ???
Centre courtyards are a typical tropical architecture feature, I like it a lot. It's really nice for cross-ventilation, natural light, and it gives you an outdoor space that's totally private.
@@lsamoa In Spain we also have centered courtyards and the house around it. It also gives you something beautiful to look at from your window that's not a car or another facade.
You Australians really have one of the best Interior / Architectural design, you guys can turn even a tiny home into an living art, you had no idea how much ideas i have taken from this channel into my on going house design! such an inspiration!
You are also looking at incredibly expensive homes. This tiny house would have cost a fortune to renovate. So not really fair to compare it against other nations. My 2 million dollar architecturally renovated weatherboard house looks much nicer than my friends 300k home in Michigan but they are far from fair comparisons. I don’t see that Australian design is on the vanguard. They are incredibly constrained by building regulation
Love that this tiny home feels like an oasis of calm in the city. It seems to have a retreat/resort-type feel, which I love. Very clever use of space and beautifully connected spaces. love that natural light and outdoor space were prioritised!
This is singularly the most beautiful and moving piece of experiential art I’ve ever seen. I’ve seen a lot of these that are striking or very stylish but I get the unique feeling from this home of deep self knowledge and understanding
Truly brilliant design! I love the placement of the courtyard in the middle of the home because there's a certain amount of privacy and peace as well as fresh air and light that fills the home. Very lovely!
Congratulations! I’ve been inside several of the single fronted terraces in the suburb, since childhood. I love your centring the courtyard. I totally get, the need for light. 🥰
Such an ingenious use of space, that central courtyard is really a breakthrough and makes the property feel bigger than it is because both common areas benefit from the vantage point it provides.
While somewhat common in Europe, the benefits of even a small courtyard seem to have been forgotten elsewhere. It can provide light and air, and privacy as it be one’s something of a privacy zone between spaces that are in fact, quite close to each other.
I've been wanting to open up a wall in my apartment to let more light through. Seeing this encourages me that simply using curtains really can still look attractive for dividing spaces.
Loved everything about this space. The rustic minimalism along with the light and airy feel as well as that center courtyard which reminds me of old Spanish homes which was done to create air flow. I wish the video, though beautifully shot and artistic, would've been a bit slower and lingered more in each room so as to be able to really see and understand the apartment layout more. It felt a bit rushed and chaotic. But again, from what I could see, I loved the space.
This house is so beautiful and feels so personal to them and who they are. Just wonderful. Also heartening and great inspo for me as I'm on a budget but really want a space I can make my own, no matter the size or age of the building.
A real shame to see so many negative comments about this home & channel. I’m very familiar with this suburb & style of home & am stunned by the incredible transformation. The new inside/outside layout is fantastic & is the perfect solution to allow for natural light & airflow. Keep up the great work, I’m a new subscriber 😀
Gorgeous. I bet this home is so cool and ideal for the Australian climate. Here in the UK we would freeze in a home like this and would only get the benefit out of it a week or less per year… how depressing! lol
The edit cadence was too quick! I wanted to enjoy seeing the spaces but the edit kept interrupting. I love your videos and can’t wait for each one to come out so I really respect what you’ve done so need to give you this honest feedback.
I agree. Loved the house, hated the camera work. Keeping the camera steady for a bit and having slightly wider shots instead of constant close-ups would go a long way in giving an actual sense of the space.
This is very considered design. Feels like there was a real budget. Seen other videos like this where the architect would splurge on expensive detail, finishes & building systems everywhere, whilst this of course is nice, truly good architectural design innovates use of space, light & composition to ennoble average finishes.
Very well done! That's quite an space- effective and super nice to develop such a narrow place. I understand the challenges of a project like that since in the southern Spain we have plenty of properties that we call "casas de pueblo" which usually stands in the best locations and by default they tend to be as small and tall as your project, therefore I understand the importance of being flexible with the ideas around the space. Thank you so very much for sharing your beautiful sanctuary.
I’m happy you hit on the mental happiness enjoyed through natural light. This seems to be a popular point of view. Makes me wonder how those folks in dreary areas survive.
Duuude, I'm just enjoying the music track r n. The design is just wonderful, from front to back, and from top to bottom. So many good ideas that work great together. The courtyard being in the middle of the residence reminds me of the ones in the Mediterranean region where the homes have their courtyard in the middle of the residence. 👍👍🤙✌️
It’s not for everyone, for sure! I have a dear friend who has one. It definitely took some learning how to navigate it. Also limits what you can get upstairs, a bit. But it does really open up a small space, for sure!
I JUST LOVE THIS ENTIRELY,! The termination and quality of material elevates the beautifulness and the designing location of furnitures is what gives this project the elegance, calmness and fluency we appreciate. Also the connection with outdoors is genius. ♥
@@stum7396 I think that they had to compromise on the size of the island and workspace/ walk through. I have a kitchen peninsula with stools on one side and shallow storage on the other and it's 75cm wide, it works well for us and we have long legs so it's not an uncomfortable space to work with.
Cupboards, splashback, benchtop and plaster unity makes this. Hiding these visually took bravery. Probably bedrooms upstairs would have been good to see innovation there. I wonder how it will go as the population ages? Suspect the stairs remained a problem.
If the owner keeps using the stairs they will keep their mobility longer, but that back studio would serve well if they have hip or knee issues. I have lived with a spiral staircase and I don’t like them. At least this one will be only used by those that live there. And it’s way better than a ladder. I was confused by the outdoor shower. It’s overlooked by all the other houses.
@@debzeb6899 OK I don't have much experience with spiral staircases. The outdoor shower is pretty common for Australian beach side suburbs. But this is in Redfern!!! - it is no where near the beach. I suspect it is not for utility but for storytelling. Overall, the courtyard is a missed opportunity to use the vertical space more effectively. The grass tree is brutish (being larger than a person) and missed the chance to connect the upper story with the courtyard or lower story. An alternative might have been to run stairs along the boundary of the courtyard to the upper level, taking the place of the shower, removing the internal staircase (more internal space upstairs and downstairs). Maybe too difficult with local planning laws but there are lots of other ways of using the courtyard better to connect the lower and upper levels, let in light and create a respite. I normally dislike cream or yellow paintwork, here the earthy paint/tone seems to work well and impressed me.
@@futurebrilliantteam8851 the spiral tread is a triangle, narrowest at the center and that's hard to navigate naturally. It's also hard to move when holding something and the space is cramped and restricts the size of objects you can move between floors. I really like your idea of using the external space for stairs, and I've seen this done to good effect between homes as a boundary that still lets in a good deal of light to adjacent rooms. I like the colour palate a lot too. There's yellows and then yellows!
I don’t know… they wanted spaces to serve multiple purposes and have two living areas? I know Australia has dry weather but the bathroom outside is a bit too much for me. The kitchen sink is tiny. But aesthetically is beautiful and feels more like a good Airbnb than a livable space.
The thing is we don't just have dry weather. Winter gets cold, even in redfern. We experience a lot of rain too - which always suprises me when i see houses like this that are so open. Flies, spiders, and critters getting to the house would be annoying.
The bathroom is upstairs, in the front part of the upper back. It overlooks the courtyard. I think the outdoor shower is an optional addition. Some people really like showering in nature. The tub is upstairs, though.
Loved this beautiful homely house but needed to see a floor plan to try and figure out the first floor and where the kid sleeps. We only saw one bedroom and a bit of a bathroom. Does the kid sleep in with the parents then? Very confusing trying to figure it out without seeing a floor plan.
best tiny hone Ive ver seen!! only thing I would've changed is not putting the tree in the center of the courtyard but more to the side so you could potentially put a table in the courtyard and dine outside
It looks great…. But I’m not sure about the courtyard in the middle of the house… cuz when it rains, you have to have an umbrella just to get from your lounge to the kitchen….
Gorgeous, soulful. The courtyard is a game changer. Tiny change I would make… As a fellow Mama, I would not have chosen what appears to be a toxic fire stick plant & what appears to be a pointy tree. I would have used other structural plants. But that is a minor issue. Love the design.
I know the layout of these terrace houses. The same throughout Redfern to Balmain. You’ve don’t a beautiful job working with the natural bones. I love the earthy grounding materials and that gold spider marble is sublime.😍😍😍😍
Actually Sydney (this house is in Redfern, which is an area of Sydney) gets a lot more rain than London. Our rain is different though. It's not a constant light drizzle like in the UK, it's more heavy seasonal downpours.

That’s actually typical placement for Moorish, Ottoman, Andalusian architecture

the courtyard is the cherry on top. the light entering the kitchen is just...

The design moves the garden to the middle of the house. So smart! And it makes the entire house brighter and the space more flexible.
I’m always a big fan of narrow but long property. And I would love to build a nice cozy, structured, & Lovely home.
What a sensational home, love the architecture and how it plays with space and light! Very well done!
Gorgeous. I bet this home is so cool and ideal for the Australian climate. Here in the UK we would freeze in a home like this and would only get the benefit out of it a week or less per year… how depressing! lol
It could be done quite easily in the UK by using a greenhouse roof, or skylights.

Extraordinarily beautiful concept n material palette,,,the home turned out to be so airy ,,sunlit 👍
OMG that instrumental from Kota the friend gave me goosebumps ♥ and such a beautiful home.
In channels, houses feel like museums. There is not any such living creature. So much clean, no vibes or cozyness
Wow, really lovely. I agree with the other comments here, I love the center courtyard. Enjoy all that beautiful light!
Reminds me of rajasthani houses. Very well done👏👏
I’m happy you hit on the mental happiness enjoyed through natural light. This seems to be a popular point of view. Makes me wonder how those folks in dreary areas survive.
Imagine needing an umbrella to walk to your kitchen from your living room every time it rains though.
That, and many other practicalities
Duuude, I'm just enjoying the music track r n.

A absolutely beautiful and calming space.
You can tell how its not cold over there, it really lets you design differently. Also, can the neighbors see you shower.
¿ from the kitchen of course.
Es una casa preciosa y práctica y cálida y dónde dan ganas de estar¡¡¡
That spiral staircase would be the death of me... going up and down, around and around every day...
It’s not for everyone, for sure! I have a dear friend who has one. It definitely took some learning how to navigate it. Also limits what you can get upstairs, a bit. But it does really open up a small space, for sure!

lovely kitchen, great air flow
Absolutely glorious to look at but also so functional. A real inspiration in terms of the layout and how the property is being used.
I think I can smell the happiness here.
Very very clever use of space!
Can you share the plans? I'm still puzzled how did they fit all that in such a narrow space
The camera works gives it an illusion of very wide and large area
Cant imagine how they managed that kitchen! Worktop 60cm, workspace 100cm, island 90cm, walkway 100cm = 350cm min surely... 🤷

日本の家（特に、京都にある長屋）は、これぐらいのサイズの家が普通に沢山あり、通風と採光を考えて中庭を設けます（よく、海外の人には兎小屋だと笑われます）
しかし、工夫を凝らして考え抜かれた住宅は、この住み方としては十分に豊かさを感じられ、広さは１つの要素でしかないことがわかります
また、日本人は家に誰かを招いてパーティーをするような事は稀で、少子化のため2人や3人家族が多いので、プライベートスペースとしては十分です、共感します
