idk what it is.. but she just has IT. shes legit a character out of a movie. straight up.
HUGE main character energy for sure!!
she reminds me of awkwafina
You know the Maggie Gyllenhaal's character in Stranger than Fiction? That's how I imagine
She's in touch with herself and her space mirrors that. Confidence, good vibes, true self.
@@Rye404 Oh please, she's working every inch of herself, she is in complete drag, but good on her, I applaud anyone especially a fellow Aussie who can dupe the masses and get rich.
I can’t believe she has TWO raised loft areas. This apartment is SO COOL.
This style just screams “artistic maximalism” to me ❤️
Same here, and as I am a "less is more" person, i really felt overwhelmed by all the staff they have
It’s very Australian hipster style
She may be a hoarder. It can get out of control if she can't left stuff go. That's a lot she's accumulated in 7 years.
@@lisastarr6481 this is definitely just maximalism...not hoarding
Yes, my favorite style
i hate what gentrification has done to my neighborhood, these high prices have pushed out that very population you talked about in the beginning. $3000 isn’t an affordable living.
hell, even 1500 a month isn't even affordable :(
I'm a Greenpoint native. It's disheartening to see the changes. But l'm sure when my family moved there in the late 40s the prior year inhabitants weren't happy either. Change is constant, especially in NYC. I do wish things stayed the same but unfortunately, life isn't that convenient.
@@jusliving7977 it’s less about opposing change and more about racism, classism, and displacement. Things can be new, vibrant, and not displace people who are native to an environment with affordable housing.
@@shaylabritton319 l respect your position but unfortunately our nation was not founded on that premise. It was founded on a survival of the fittest, profit over morality paradigm. That's why the natives have been displaced and nearly ethnically cleansed and why Africans have been enslaved and marginalized for most of their existence in the US. What everyone must do is never put themselves in a position to rely on someone's benevolence for their well being. Because if past is prologue it is foolish to do so
What surprised me us that it's not even a good quality space! Leaky taps and small bathrooms?
yep yep yep THIS is what id want in new york
Yo! We literally worked together on the voting campaign post last September!! Small world
i’m starting to see your comments everywhere •-• are u haunting me or am i haunting you?
@@tina.ferrarini ahaha same here
This is what I’d want ANYWHERE
I would want it anywhere.
I would make the TV hideaway rm my bedroom though.
this video is SO fire. I love her loft!
THANK YOU!!
SO GOOD
Omg it‘s soooo beautiful, I wanna move there from Switzerland 😍😂
@@jesstran266 yftyy
@@EnyaKellermann isnt rent more expensive at switzerland?
She "This apartment costs $3 350, which I think is a steal."
Me, who isn't willing to pay more than 1000 Euro on rent. 👁👄👁 😱😵
I know, it's sad. Honestly, it's not really a steal, not anymore at least.
She means when you rent in New York you are being Stolen From!!
@@sentosaco well no not really, tax on store items is lower so they get that through housing and other payments
Overrated city
She lives there with her partner, so 1675 per person.. In New York I think it’s a very good deal
I always wonder if people like this had wealthy parents that gave them a good start in the city. When I lived there there was no way I could imagine ever affording a place like this without help.
Inquiries&guide📊🆙.
Omg too many stuff. Looks like a store instead of a house.😊
This loft is so stunning but am I the only one who would be deathly afraid of falling off the raised living spaces?
Ye I wouldn't trust my dogs up there I'd def have to get a railing!!
Haha you're not but I would be more afraid for my dog to fall 😅
Yes, only you
I got to tingly just thinking about being up there. I was so scared for her lol
Yes especially during parties
I LOVE JESS!!! HER LOFT LOOKS LIKE A SETTING FOR A COMING OF AGE MOVIE
Omg totally 💯
Hi you're so sweet!!
yessss
Jess is goals not just because of how aesthetic her life is, but because she leads with her values at the forefront of everything she does
she & her loft are honestly straight out of an indie movie & i have never seen a more convincing video ‘promoting’ new york the way this did ! ✨🥺
It's a beautiful space but, not gonna lie, having nothing but open storage everywhere like that would make me hella anxious. Makes my brain feel cluttered just looking at it!
Totally!
Same!
You could use storage bins and label them
Yeah, there's just too much going on imo, sensory overload
I was thinking the same!!! It's just very very visually hectic and cluttered and looks like there's less space to walk around even tho the loft itself looks rather spacious
So she’s spending $3,500 a month for her taps not to work and to have a leaking roof?
It’s a cute place and she definitely has good taste though
I was thinking that too but still beautiful space she/they’ve made for themselves.
@A H i guess it's about the atmosphere and community aspect
I think it's mostly for the square footage. She's able to fit 3 couches and actually has space for a 5 cube wide wall shelf.
@A H true true.
Shes splitting w her parter
This is the apartment that was posted on tumblr/pinterest for many years and i remembered how inspired i was and saved the photo. it is so surreal to see it in an actual video, thank you!!!
This is such a beautiful portrayal of organize chaos. The balance of wood, plants, reclaimed furniture, art, etc. It's just such a beautiful space and I'm so happy to see people like her transform these little boxes into actual works of art. Great video!
She seems so fucking cool, this is one of the first "cluttered" spaces I've ever seen that I like bc everything does really seem like it means so much to her that it brings me joy in turn!
if urban outfitters was an apartment. I love it!
Yes, this is like living in a thrift store. I would love to visit this kind of place - it's too complex for my personal style. But it goes with her persona!
Haha her appearance style matches a UO employee as well lol
$3k a month is literally a mortgage 😭
Not in NYC.
No..that’s not a mortgage, that’s just fucking geed.
My home is five bedroom three bath with a basement (media room ) my house is 4800+ sqft, with a garage (that doubles as my studio) that is 1000 ft.²) When adding my work space, we’re talking almost 6000 ft.² total. The property sits on 3 acres land with fruit trees …..My mortgage is 1700 per month….(fuck NYC and it’s outrageous insane cost of living🤨)
@@TheRTM where do you live?? Gotta move there
@@wakeliz Mars !
@@TheRTM Wow!! What state do you live in?
I love that she has a story with everything, it makes this appartment really special
not me at thirteen planning out my entire future that includes living in hawaii, new york, paris, and switzerland while having barely any money in my bank account
Dream big b that’s all it takes 🤩
me too sis no worries, we're gonna do it all
Haha that’s how you should be at thirteen! The world is your oyster! Just save and invest wisely 😜
Not me a 26 years old realizing I missed some chances
YES girl! Life is so customizable, learn how to manage your money well then live it UP!
I think this is one of the best lofts I have ever seen on the internet.
she seems like such a well rounded person, and has built such a calming and beautiful atmosphere for herself.
Don't get me wrong the apartment is the dream but this just gives me anxiety for the simple reason that i and the majority of the people in this world will never be able to afford anything even close to this...
Bang on. This screams 1%
@@Bionicbrain1 It’s literally only $1600/mo since she has a partner she splits rent with. Definitely not 1%, most studios in NY average for $1700-2000/mo so this really *is* a steal, like she said. If she were living here alone, she’d be well-off, but even then nowhere near the luxury apartments/studios I’ve seen that run upwards of $10,000/mo. *That* is 1%.
@@totallytalia Nah, it’s $3500 a month. Lol, people really just trying to cope with this gentrified bullshit. I’ll stick to my $800/mo Queens studio.
@@MelGibsonFan As someone living in Jamaica rn, please let me know where this imaginary $800/mo Queens studio is, or at least admit that it’s nowhere near the norm.
@@totallytalia Glendale, I live right off Woodhaven. I didn’t say and I definitely don’t think $800/mo is the norm though, but most of my family (grew up in ridgewood) live in and around the $1100 to $1500 a month range. Best bet is to stay far the fuck away from brokers too.
THE THUMBNAIL i can already tell this is going to be amazing
Jess is so sweet!!!
It might look cool, but they even dont really have separate rooms and only have one big window. If they cook (or burn) something, in smells everywhere. So consider all the negatives, even her taste and plants and stuff is cool looking.
Okay, this may be the BEST & coolest apt I've seen; and as an agent and traveler, I like to think I've seen many in different states, countries, etc. What's so cool is Jazz' style and soul ... the spirit that fills this Loft. So much meaning behind the elements that give this space its own life and personality. Loved it and of course 🐶 was adorable. Thanks for sharing
she was so cool and well spoken... i just love what she had to say!!
I totally agree! 🙌🏼
This person is incredible and so interesting. It’s like they were born for this!!
Yeah. Loving her vibe
Yes agree! She seems awesome!
@@miriamstrauss right!!
@@MillaExplores oh yeah!
i agree, they seem like such a cool, chill person
her place is magic. they both have really good taste... but $3,350 isnt a steal at all hahaha
ig w splitting rent w her partner it’s a lot easier than paying it on her own
I just moved into my first apartment and I've been so hellbent on trying to design everything perfectly, but these apartments are inspiring me to just let things accumulate lol. Very beautiful spaces. Thank you for this video!
wait I’m freaking obsessed
Yeah way cool
So happy you went that extra step and took just a the few seconds to give a bit of context to the neighbohoods settlers history. Much appreciated!
her apartment and her personality are soo nice
Jess needs to film an apartment tour on her own channel and monetize this stunning space on her own terms, I'd watch it repeatedly
this place is so not me.. but omg it works sooooo well for her. i love that its not perfect, and tells a story. somehow. the fact that it is so real, feels unreal. felt like a very realistically accurate movie, if that makes sense.
I never really understood the idea of talking/educating oneself about gentrification, but still actively participating in it? Perhaps I misunderstood that segment, but it seems that many well-off millennials talk about gentrification, the importance of being educated on the subject matter, and the like, but still actively partake in it. Yes, I will never minimize the importance of education, but if you're not going to move out of your super nice and surprisingly affordable place...isn't it all essentially pointless? By no means am I trying to act like a saint because truth is, if I found a nice place in a gentrified area that was surprisingly affordable, I'd probably be tempted to move in. It just feels like learning about the importance of recycling, carbon emissions, etc, but still taking part in the most problematic forms of air, water, etc. pollution. I mean, great, you're educated, but...still contributing to the problem. A big portion of said problem.
**Please note, this is by no means a personal attack on Jess, but more about how we as a collective seem to be approaching this particular subject matter.
(bingo)
I agree, individualism has a limit that should be delimitated by ethic. If you know about a type of oppression and still contribute to it individually you are not only part of the problem but also anti ethic
They do it to sound “woke”. Nothing more, nothing less.
Ur right.
genuine question - are you personally aware of how someone could totally avoid participating in gentrification in this situation? Has anyone solved that issue? It's not as easy to avoid as one-use plastic etc. so that's not reaaally a comparable analogy I don't think. Also, in this case, she mentioned that she aims to become more educated *so that* she can then understand how she can contribute less to the problem. It seems to me that you're suggesting that ignorance and silence is preferable to having an open conversation about gentrification - I just do not believe that that is the best way forward. It is a hugely nuanced topic so I don't think we can straightforwardly say anyone who contributes in any way to gentrification cannot talk about it.
Her thrifting and second hand searching is so inspiring! I love her style it's so unique and quirky❤ I'm about to move into my own place and furnish it myself and I hope to find everything secondhand and have this type of unique creative vibe
I LOVE her energy, she just so pleasing to listen to
Elena! I can't thank you enough for this video! It served as an amazing reminder of how refreshing it is to be original and unique. I live in a small town that has never felt like home, where its people are mainly obsessed with instagram and other pointless stuff. It gives me life and so much hope to see people being themselves and expressing their soul in their own, unique way! Jess and her apartment were stunning & the vibes were sooo cool and inspiring!
This comment is so wholesomeq
I love that she has a dressing room and still put a clothes rack in her bfs office lol
That apartment is so dreamy. And she has such a special aura! Love this
Organized chaos is my favorite design style and this space defines that perfectly.
One of those apartments you repost on tumblr or pin on your dream apartment board
Never stop this series Elena, it's so so SO good
It’s lovely to see her personal touch everywhere. I loved it. Such a special personality.
Jess feeling such emotion looking at a personal photograph - I can relate. I love the space and the comfortable style and the adorable doggie.
The thumbnail with the plants immediately hooked me in, what a beautiful place
The way she talks..I just love it.
that energy is contagious.
Fell in love with the space 8 minutes in
11:54 I find her career so interesting because her space is consistent with what she does for a living.
Absolutely my favourite ‘Buzzed In’ episode (so far)!! Love this apartment and how beautifully Jess has curated this space ❤️
She is so real, and her values are so on point!! Love love
Her loft is amazing!!! So much personality and unique. Love it!!!!
You can always tell the character of a person by the way their apartment looks.
Shes on 🔥🔥
Jeffrey Epstein had a nice apartment…
The BEST episode so far! Also would personally be terrified I would sit in a chair in the loft and fall right over the edge...
Yep! I'm really good at falling down too!😁
I love all the plants and bright light sitting deep in her loft, which makes her space look a lot more vibrant and beautiful. And love her saying why so fond of nyc and brooklyn ^^
this house feels like I'm seeing something so incredibly intimate and cozy. I absolutely love the aesthetic and it's perfect because something about it is comfortable enough that I'd feel fine asking for a glass of water if I was new :)
Such a well done series Elena! The filming, history, tours, and interviews are fantastic. Keep it up!
The loft looks amazing and I love that she also points out the imperfections about the place! :)
The production quality of this vid is acc soo good!!!Has such an architectural digest vibe!Good Job!!!
Wow! Amazing apartment laid out beautifully. The plants 🪴hel clean the air and are so beautiful and comfortable. Thank you for taking the time to share your home with us.
Her vibe and loft are STUNNING!!! She looks like such a wonderful warm human being and that is perfectly reflected into her apartment (which is MAJOR goals). Thanks for the vid!
I just love her apartment style so much!!! there's an urban boho-chicness to it that I also want to emulate in my own apartment look when I finally get my own place to live!!!
wow elena has such a great vibe and so adorable !
"we pay $3,350, which I think is a steal!"
Me: (living in South Carolina) dear god
Nah, that’s still exorbitantly priced. I live in a similarly sized apartment in queens, about 20 minutes from her and I pay $800 (which is an actual steal). My family and friends live around here and pay around $1200.
lol. I am in North Carolina and we have a 2 story townhouse in a really nice and quiet area. My closet is the size of her bedroom. I left Los Angeles for this exact reason.
You're a natural in front of the camera. Probably see you on national television one day.
Haha ya she’s great
her energy and space is everything
When she said I try and buy second hand I gave it a thumbs up. I freaking love the plants
I love how everything has meaning in her beautiful home, that is an amazing idea
such a beautiful apartment, love how they created different "rooms" within the loft. and she is super inspiring as a person. love this Buzeed In serie because in tv and media New York is often portrayed a certain way so it's interesting so see real people living in the city and what they think/feel!
Beautiful apartment! Thank you for sharing!
One thing I've thought about related to gentrification in Chicago (where I lived for a long time) and probably other cities as well is that the young, recently graduated people who are gentrifying neighborhoods are seeking places with public transit and high walkability, and unfortunately those kinds of places are extremely limited in the United States. If we want to attract young people to a wider swath of neighborhoods and prevent pushing out communities who have lived in places for a long time, we need more public transit and more appealing urban planning. Basically, new neighborhoods and new construction need to be better and public transit needs to be hugely expanded.
There's absolutely no reason why Europe has high speed trains to take you to different countries in hours, but we can't even get trains to take us to different cities
you are a whole entire VIBE✨this is my first time seeing your channel and I’m immediately in love!
hands down your best property video so far
Her apartment is fire and omg she is so intelligent and articulate!! Great video!
Wow, this apartment is AMAZING!! And love how you can tell she really cares about others and what she does
She seems such a genuine soul
I'd love to see this space completely empty/without the furniture and decor. You've done a beautiful job decorating and making it yours!
I would love to have a friend who lived in a place like this, so I could visit once in a while. It’s beautiful, but not for me. Too dangerous / scary, and probably super annoying to live with a partner because you can hear everything they do 24/7 since there’s no proper doors.
just curious - do you mean that living in a loft would be dangerous/scary or in greenpoint, brooklyn? why is that?
@@elle4406 oh no I meant it’s dangerous that there are no walls / railings on the upper level. You could fall right out of that chair or step right off the edge and crack your head open.
@@WishAtElevenEleven gotcha!
@@WishAtElevenEleven it would be a huge safety hazard if there were ever children in the house for sure. Also I agree I need to get away from people (even a partner) at some point just to relax and there’s not really a way to do that there. I guess the uppermost part but even that doesn’t have a fully enclosed room
the consistency project is such a cool brand! i've seen sneak peaks of her place on instagram so it's awesome to finally see the whole space
Thank you, Elena, for this well-crafted video; it was lovely getting to know Jess and her philosophy on life. You got yourself another subscriber.
this has got to be one of the COOLEST apartments I have ever seen! so many unique, groovy and funky spaces and decor items....so much character! it isnt my personal vibe but I just love this so much
So nice seeing Jess on your channel! I was into her blog, Jess loves Fred, back in the day. Her loft is goals fr!
Ahh that’s why she seems so familiar! Gosh what a journey she’s been on?!
@@merenahh ikr!
“Organized chaos” Beautifully said!
yup! That’s me & yup! That’s my space, too! I can TOTALLY relate to your friend!
All of the kitschy treasures that individually hold their own stories/memories, (it’s cathartic); the 🪴s, 2nd hand, photography, etc... I feel like I’m looking in a mirror~
PS-totally checking out Boot Boy Biz!
Absolutely LOVE the concept
Her home space is perfectly reflective of how cool she is. Jess is an inspiring young woman. Thank you both for sharing.
I love the style of your videos ESPECIALLY the history lessons that you add! Please keep doing what you’re doing! ❤️
What a beautiful place. And as a plant lover too I really falling in love with all those plants in here. Really wishing we had these kind of places in my city.
I love how her boyfriends office is in her closet and she also has meditation space. She is a powerful woman 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Hello how are you doing 😊☺️👋
says more about their cohesive relationship, rather than power! :))
Yeah, says a lot about her. Inconsiderate 👁👄👁
I LOVE THIS SERIES, PLEASE CONTINUE DOING THESE KIND OF CONTENT 😊 YOU'RE AMAZING ❤️
I love how much natural light there is!
Who else was so excited for this video as soon as they saw the notification?!? 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️
This series is everything! You should really lean into it!
First of all I am her biggest fan ans also hearing her talk about New York at the end made me emotional she summed it up perfectly !! ❤️🥺 thanks for sharing
Eleeeena, will you please make all these videos into a playlist? I could just binge watch them again and again and again
Beautiful apartment and well put together video. There is a add on to the history. The previous polish population has dropped from 75 percent to 10 percent due to skyrocketing rent prices. many moved to queens and some left America to return to Europe. Gentrification strikes again. Also, the previous working class residents were once plagued with dangerous chemical leaks from local industrial plants. Once this was eventually cleaned there was a huge surge in construction and investment in the area. Thus the older residents were priced out and many had to leave and the newer, more affluent residents moved into a now safer area. It happens over and over. The poor are left to suffer. The rich get all the benefits.
You cant complain about gentrification when you're actively participating in it.
Gentrification can also apply to displacing middle class residents
She wasn't really complaining, more pointing out that she's complicit and aware that it's an issue
explain
Love this tour so much! The greenery and interesting objects are fabulous. Multiple spaces to chill out 🙌🙌
she’s so well spoken! this is also exactly how i wanna live in a few years
