Agree! I like that when you are cooking, you can protect the rest of the place from the smell and fumes just by closing them away. And hiding everything makes it so neat and yet I saw he still has empty shelves which means it's more than enough for one person leaving. And a real fridge with dishwasher and what a balcony. It's really delightful.
Absolutely! I watched this video years ago and had been looking for it. This doesn't feel shut in. It's actually enough space you need and the view is the best view I've seen for any tiny homes and I've seen a bunch of them.
His pride is infectious; I found myself being really pleased for him.The designs are so clever (I did have a little giggle when he jumped out of the way of the folding out kitchen compartment).....the glass shower in the living space was a bit too much for me, but if he is happy who cares how I feel ! :)When he talks about his "little nest" ;so sweet !!!!
I don’t care if this place is actually comfortable or not, I’m just happy to see how this man is proud of himself and his masterpiece. He’s so precious, please protect him at all costs
'Hey dude, can I take a shower?' ''Yeah sure, go ahead'' 'Uhm.. you're just gonna sit there..?' Other then that, this is one of the most epic appartments I've ever seen!
JOHN 2014 Even Paris and London have smaller 'apartments'. But this is what I'd consider a tiny, but luxury apartment. It feels spacious even though it is really small. It's the perfect bachelor pad.
I found this video 6 years ago or so and I still love looking for it from time to time because I really enjoy how this man made such a spectacular apartment in a minimum space. greetings in this 2023
Not really. He gets in about the same functionality as one would in a conventionally furnished appartment of the same size. The main reason for this is that a pathway between things leaves less useless floorspace.
He turned a dilapidated room into a minimalist luxury home. It's beautiful but I do wonder if the renovation workers had to carry the wooden material up the 100 stairs. I enjoyed this video!
They always ask how many people they've had in the room... and it's always some outrageous number... ...has 17 sq. ft apartment... "Yea I've had 600 people in here before"
Once, in my younger days, I lived in an apartment where you pulled down the murphy bed and then didn't have room in the apartment to walk around it. THAT was a tiny space.
I really love this actually, and I live in a fairly large house... it must be so easy to clean, cheap to own, yet at the same time it doesn’t at all look cheap, and it must also be really convenient to have everything only a step away near enough
That multifunctional wall is genius! I think I'd want a fold-down counter for food prep adjacent to the "kitchen", although the fold-down table isn't terribly far away. Outdoor living is practical in Barcelona, but in colder or more rainy climates he'd need more indoor living space for this design.
I found this video in 2012 and I was 13-ish at the time. This opened my eyes for tiny living and smart living spaces. Now I'm obsessed with tiny houses, RV/van life. This might be irrelevant to every one but it actually influenced how I now live. Less clutter, less things to be mindful of. 😂
This is absolutely amazing. I have watched this video more then 10 times and absolutely love it. The simplicity and usefulness in a perfect marriage for a single person. Love the idea! It's so well though through. And how happy he is living there! Stunning little piece of heaven 😍
I absolutely love this this was hands down my favorite of all time I seen a lot of videos about people with smaller you know tiny homes or smaller apartments or minimalist this is the best design I've ever seen and he did it on his own I would live in this God bless you
+Nurul Bird as a black American i can honestly say i've NEVER been allowed to wear shoes in my house or even in any of my friend's homes either. it just seems both weird and gross to me
as an American I couldn't help but laugh when he said that he needed a full sized refrigerator, because compared to the monster fridges in the U.S. that one he has is tiny
Hannah J. its because of the fact that in most european cities markets and grocery store are behind the corner, and in the U.S. you need to drive approx 15 minutes to get there
Hannah Banana, as fellow American, I have to have my huge fridge. My brother has a fridge in his house that is 6ft wide and if I had a house big enough I would want that too😂. I know a Hannah Banana near me too🍌🍌🍌😎
I wouldnt mind living in a small space except I like to cook so.. if I cook smth, my bed, clothes, bathroom is all gonna smell like food. I'd hate that.
Except there's no washing machine. You'd have to carry every load of your laundry up and down 100 steps to the laundromat. Or wear them in the shower...
Yes! I hate the idea of my bed smelling like food too! That’s why I made a 5sqm(~50sqf) alcove into a separate room with a door to be the kitchen in my tiny apartment.
djeskolive if by PC you mean the huge 1990's monstrosity ...not many use that anymore when you have high end fablets and laptops that do just about everything....just needs to go into a little bag...
Pretty thoughtful and clever, and it's really nice owning such a personal space,especially all made and designed carefully by self. Honestly, it still looks a little bit narrow, and maybe, adding mirrors onto the timber planes would be a way worth trying.
That is just fabulous!! I wouldn't change a thing except.. I would "frost"a small portion of the shower glass walls...like from neck to knees! Still see but camouflaged!!! Aside from that...perfect!!!
This is likely the most amazing apartment I've ever seen.. The only thing I don't understand is why he hasn't made the table out of glass. He'd have another permanent window, no?
I love this space. The clean lines, the warm feeling with the colors and materials he used. I don’t remember him showing the shower but I believe it was the glass box you see in the room. I enjoy climbing stairs and always had two floors or multi level houses. The only problem that I see with the 5 flight of stairs is carrying up bundles.
Mass production of high quality small homes like this could help us manage the housing shortage, over population, overpriced housing market and halt urban spread not to mention significantly decrease the use of unsustainable resources and CO2 emissions.
All he would need is one of those foldable screens and use it in front of the shower as needed. Other times he can store it away in one of his cubby holes.
I don't think he would mind having a friend over. I mean the one in the video. And the friend would not mind him taking a shower in his presence... They' re both.... well, friends. I mean extremely good friends.
This video and the Jay Shafer tiny home video is what made me fall in love with small unconventional spaces 10 years ago.

Exactly! His teeth were just all over the place.
Right?? He probably wanted to fuck his kitchen.

When he opened all the cupboards I’m like: where’s the bed?
Then he pulls it out from the balcony.
Mind blown.
myself thanks for spoiling the surprise hope ur happy champ

Makes me happy how happy he is
Luna Lovegood * Christian is so cute! I love his smile and enthusiasm!
Its called gay

@Jake Sangria
Two different things.
I'm so tired of this "protect him/her at all cost" bullshit. You are just copying! I have seen it so many places. Lame
Izena STFU
excellent use of space. it's true that boat owners have mastered use of small spaces.
It's great that he has roof access so it's even more space.
Crappy to penthouse!
You can watch TV while you take a shower... GENIUS!
And if it's a smart TV, the CIA can watch you too!
I dont see any tv on the video
Well.. wait until the electricity bill arrives...lol
@@giaminhhoang7382it was towards the end when he was talking about the bed
Probably the best use of a small space i've ever seen, great design.
not gonna lie, this is LITERALLY THE BEST apartment idea i've ever seen on TH-cam so far! Such an inspiration!! Thank you so much for this video :)
You could literally kit out a single room in your house like this and have a self contained suite for guests
The solution for the bed/sofa/stairs in combination with the terrace is remarkable!The absolut highlight in this smart flat!
He's adorable. Such genius building this place, east to clean is a plus. Love the balcony. I've seen this before, can't remember where.
'Hey dude, can I take a shower?'
''Yeah sure, go ahead''
'Uhm.. you're just gonna sit there..?'
Other then that, this is one of the most epic appartments I've ever seen!
Roy Wardenaar lol thinking same. Should made glass not see through for examplehave one of those pictures with eyes so see who in the house lol.
Roy Wardenaar so does he own this apartment?
How often do you ask to take a shower while hanging at your friends house?? o_O
my friends shower at my house way too much... I feel like Tracy Ullman at the end of her TV show back in the 80, "Go home!"
who cares if they see you naked? It's natural
2:27 It is **really** important to have your cornflakes!
Yea, I didn't realize having cabinets was such a revolutionary idea.
MrWhiteman TV x
Noodles
They're Grrrrrreeeaaatt!
You didn't mean KHORNE flakes, did you? The Blood God loves some nice cereals, but of course!
Brilliant ideas, Brilliant personality, with a childlike joy and pride in his accomplishment. Very inspiring
this man is genius and you can tell down to earth and a nice man to be friends with. Wonderful use of space
this is has to be one of the top ten tiny house. you should make top ten.
you won't say it top ten if u ever visited hk or tokyo.....

+chris7jakarta it isn't anymore, it was a little while ago hehe
Agreed!
Oh he's, happy alright.
Hanabahtah why is he stupid?
This guy is a genius designer. His design was so inspiring.
For the shower, they should've tinted the glass. So you can only see out, not in
@@supermasterfighter yes!
HavokDJ or you know, privacy
Great idea!! He still can :)
@@supermasterfighter not female ...male.
or have a curtain that stores in between the sink and shower and pulls out around it for some privacy
I'm the type of person who loves small and quiet spaces so this is something I'd love to live in OMg
Naomi xo1 can i move in w you? 😘☺
This is quite literally the best tiny apartment idea I've seen!!!

A really good use of the space.
Its amazing !
Not really. He gets in about the same functionality as one would in a conventionally furnished appartment of the same size.
The main reason for this is that a pathway between things leaves less useless floorspace.
Tim Vine Yeah, I watched it first, then I read 250 sqft, I couldn't believe it!
I m happy to see how happy he is when showing his home
I don't know why I'm just seeing this in 2020, but I'm impressed!
the good part is that man really love his house and I enjoyed too...
Reminds me of the apt. The Bruce Willis character lived in, in the movie “5th element”.
I think Bruce's character loved in a nicer area than this guy though. Thos place looked like a glorified garbage heap.
@Jake Sangria lol not me. I'm gonna buy up 40 acres in Alaska. I need space and I dont want to live in a city.
He turned a dilapidated room into a minimalist luxury home. It's beautiful but I do wonder if the renovation workers had to carry the wooden material up the 100 stairs. I enjoyed this video!
Hadn't thought of that!!
That apartment would be perfect with a projector! The wooden doors make a perfect wall to display something on!
I love how he looked so happy and proud. His space is amazing and it really fits his lifestyle. 😊
I'm super jelly of his place
Super Jelly?
+MrWhiteman TV jealous
It's a douche way of saying jealous, like peanut butter and jelly. I just felt like one in the moment. But he does have a really awesome flat.
itd be fun after like a month. then its super cramped. im fine living in my 3000 sq ft. house
Magical Croissant l
40 people in that apartment?! I don't even have 40 friends
That would be a fire code violation
Well now you do. You got more than 40 likes.
You call up people from the street...

I thought it was gonna be made out of legos.........
same

me to xD
Opens door
Me: Oh thats pretty stylish
Shows original photos
Me: Oh sweet lord no
I recognize this apartment from a magazine article, from when the space was just finished. I like that this guy is still happy with his home.
Whoever moved/moves into that apartment after him is going to be so confused initially
I wish I could
imaigne showering while he watches you lol
@@mitzara25 lmaoo
You're a genius, I will not challenge you at tetris. Well done. Two thumbs up.
They always ask how many people they've had in the room... and it's always some outrageous number...
...has 17 sq. ft apartment... "Yea I've had 600 people in here before"
i thought he said 14 lol.
I think he has a really big roof terrace on top too - so a lot of people can fit there.
Don't know about getting drunk there though 😇
I'd rather hide my shower and expose my kitchen.
Me too
Yes
All you would need are some Asian styled drapes to hang
Same thought here
Me too haha. Actually it would have been better if he made it frosted glass instead of clear glass for the cube
One of the best "action homes" I have seen! Love that it allows so many possibilities...would love to have something like this
This video decided that I will study Interior Architecture!
Thank you so much for inspiring.
NikaKiwipi hope its going well
Do you know what is the name, he used for the walls and floor¿
Holy Cow - you can start over at any age, be like water. I did it 4 times {science studies}
@HOLY COW just do it when you want to do it.
The perfect little home! Ingenious design! Bravo! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Minimalist attitude with surprise storage spaces.
This is so far the coolest transforming apartment I've seen!
Once, in my younger days, I lived in an apartment where you pulled down the murphy bed and then didn't have room in the apartment to walk around it. THAT was a tiny space.
Me too.
this is the kind of apartment i would love to stay after i graduate but with way more better toilet and baths :)
I really love this actually, and I live in a fairly large house... it must be so easy to clean, cheap to own, yet at the same time it doesn’t at all look cheap, and it must also be really convenient to have everything only a step away near enough
The space is cheap to own.
The installation on the other hand.... If you have to hire that out it's big bucks lol
What you don't get from these videos is the smell.
Try cooking in your closet sometime.
I'm glad my tiny house days are behind me.
Yes! A solid, heavy, folding table. I love it. Usually tiny apartments like this showcase tables that I'd feel scared to rest my elbows on.
That multifunctional wall is genius! I think I'd want a fold-down counter for food prep adjacent to the "kitchen", although the fold-down table isn't terribly far away. Outdoor living is practical in Barcelona, but in colder or more rainy climates he'd need more indoor living space for this design.
"Christian's hotel inspired by LEGO flat"
He says himself inspired by boats.
I'd be a little nervous about the fold away bed because it's under the deck which has outside exposure to the elements. In the end, it works for him.
A bed next to a full sized fridge got me - I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!
This is such a beautiful space! The outdoor space and being able to go on the roof is also just wonderful.
Cool design mate.
People in New York would probably pay 5,000 a month for this lol
Rad Rose I live in New York City and some would pay $5,000 or a little less because yuppies and their wealthy counterparts would love the idea.
People in NY like ‘dude, you could fit two apartments in this space!’

I'm pretty sure if he could make it up the 100 steps to get to the apartment, he's sober enough at that point to pee, pull the bed out, and sleep.
lol he would come home and panic because he thinks he was robbed

I really like this kind of house very clean and so coozy one.
Anybody seen the move 5th element? Reminds me of Bruce Willis characters living space
Pues sí le quedó muy bien. Bastante logrado su diseño por tan reducido el espacio del cual contaba.
this is one of those that ranks up there! brilliant!
and noooo shoes on bed 😦
All those stairs would deter a burgular.
Just the smallness of it with everything folded away would make it look like there's nothing to take anyway
Anita Bonhit yeah i can see them getting half way up and going "fuck this .." and turning around lol.
ozzycarnut going ups easy, carrying the loot back down would be risky. Might have to make several trips
WOW. This space is gorgeous. I would still consider it borderline inconvenient, but the proportions just work.
This was the best. Lighting ans airy. The beauty was the natural light. And that wood work was so great
Did it bother anyone else how long he left the fridge open?
Yes!! I was like OMG CLOSE THE FRIDGE.
No, I never close mine. The leaking cold helps combat global warming 😜
no
Yes

So, he invites a friend, and he tells him: -Come on in, I'll take a shower in the meantime.
