This stuff is viewed by many fewer people than the celebrity mansions. Jennifer Garner's video is at 4,6M views. To me it's obvious why AD won't stop covering the cribs of the rich and famous.
Hey AD! If you're taking notes and if you care about what your viewers say, I'd like to say that I much prefer these videos about *architecture*, and don't at all care for your "celebrity cribs" videos where they walk around and explain where they bought their knick-knack's. Maybe start another channel for that. Thanks!
AD has been featuring celebrity homes for decades, since at least the 1950s. You’re just going to have to get over the fact that they do both. On one channel.
Of course it has an industrial look and feel to it. They effing shipping containers. “Oh wow. This log cabin has a natural look and feel to it.” Did that ridiculous to you? It should have.
@@cwg73160 it's because you can find shipping containers in any alleyway in Brooklyn. That's what they were referring to, that the house itself fits well in Brooklyn and in a way pays homage to the city
LOT-EK is one of the most innovative designers around these days and this shows you why. They make high art out of the large-scale equivalent of a milk crate... Now that's something!
I love how passionate these two are about sustainability and using as many parts of the original containers as possible. You can really tell they care a lot about the space and put so much love into every detail(:
They built an 375 apartments student accommodation comprises named Mill Junction in Johannesburg, South Africa back in 2014, using shipping containers.
They listened to their customers...and are genius in their plan...highly functional and not crazy over top luxury treatments...well done...would love to see it but video was very well done ..
I genuinely love the industrial look, best way to save the planet is not to manufacture new more "efficient and environmentally friendly" things, but just to stop manufacturing new things altogether and reuse things that already exist. Keep it up!
Devoting an entire corner lot and all those resources to house ONE person isn't going to help us save the planet. This is excessive regardless of the materials used.
@@fignwton13 lol, yeah but it looks so cool and modern!! jk, I do agree with both of you, yes it is very much great to reuse, but at the same time this is NYC, that space can be utilized better for multiple families.
These vanity projects don't "save the planet". The amount of additional heating and cooling such a structure would need compared to one made of traditional building materials is considerable. Add the additional supports, requirements for one-off custom solutions, waterproofing and so on, and there is no net benefit here. If you like the look and concept fine, but it's not a green solution by any means.
about 95% of the build is new materials. reusing a some shipping containers that are easily recycled, like a soda can is, not saving the world or anything actually. The inefficiency of heating and cooling this space, easily outweights any "savings" of the planet their might have been.
This house is a treasure: sustainability, assembling semplicity (three days), elegance, comfort, a beautiful view and luxuries that invite the owners to share and be connected with other people, like the projection room, the huge fireplace, beautiful outdoor spaces and, why not, the large master bedroom bath tab 😉 The owner's decors look like there couldn't be anything different, they fit and add value to the spaces with personality and respect for the spirit of the building. My fantasy is that he took some warmth to a more essential and maybe kind of industrial flavour. The architects tale was really engaging: thank you guys, there's still so much enthusiasm for the project, humility and love as long as proficiency. I grew up in Napoli too, so I hope you'll appreciate if I describe these 15 minutes, for everything written before, sweet, soft and intense as " 'nu babà ". Exactly how I think our homes should be, congratulations.
yet it is gentrified. This is actually beyond depressing. people celebrating and finding an architectural miracle to do tiny homes and container things like this while people have their quality of life in the brink
AD always bringing something different! Absolutely love this house! Incredible concept by the architects! The layout of the interiors spaces is great. The theater is my fav spot. Love the terraces and how they all connect. Bravo to them it is beautiful.
Love it! If there was an earthquake or anything, this would be the safest building to be in since every container is a safe room with the structural strength bubble. If it fell, it wouldn’t crumble like a regular building full of concrete, glass and metal rebar.
What a cool couple! What they did is something I never thought I’d see in my city-instead of building yet another “luxury residence” like the other 5,000 everywhere you look, they built something unique n creative instead! Respect, so refreshing for once
Wonderful use of shipping containers. The architects shared their ideas and joy as they walked through the project with second owner transformations. Thanks.
This was amazing! AD needs to feature more of these narratives. The celeb cribs are ok, but this is legit AD inspiration we want to see and learn about.
Oh my goodness... let me tell you. If I had that kind of money, I would DEFINITELY be interested in this style of living. Johnathan has done a marvelous... job decorating for the style of the shipping containers. Kudos to the amazing design team 🎉❤
I really enjoy this industrial style of house, and reusing materials such as containers is exactly what the world needs. Sadly it takes away the sustainability argument when only one person lives here. It seems to me that living truly sustainably cannot be luxurious
this is actually well done, understanding how to use discarded materials like this to make a cozy house multiple levels is beyond normal builder's thinking.
By far the best place I have ever seen, and I watch A LOT of these kind of videos, LOOOOVE that each floor got it's own terraces and that they are all connected, beautiful place.
It’s wonderful to see the contrast between the steel elements and their thoughtful integration throughout the design. The interiors feel warm and inviting.
Outstanding video. It is wonderful to see these architects pushing the possibilities of using containers for 30 years. They have taken the concept so far and I'm sure they are not done.
such cool people and cool house! new found respect for AD! you have inspired an architect here! love this video and explanation and the styling everything is just very innovative cool!
Love this! And what a lovely couple! First time occuring to me that it must be hard for architects to let go of their creations that they are so proud of.
This is exactly what I want to see on AD, not the monstrous celebrity mansions. Love it.
yes.
EXACTLY!
I mean this probably costs millions, so it’s not like it’s really that different.
@@MattSezer millions as opposed to tens of millions, but yeah I'm lovin it.
Who do you think lives here? The fact you think this isn’t a monstrous mansion for a celebrity is laughable
How nice that AD actually focused on Architecture and not celebrity for once.
They do both. That’s how they stay in business.
Your speaking facts Sad to say
@@kerrylynn5199 The view count seems to indicate otherwise so far.

They also have the best homes so lol

Agree!

I suspect the millions of views the celeb vids get speak louder than your one comment.
Says brad the Pitts!! 😂
Totally agree!
Giuseppe and Ada are the MOST charming and talented! Directing this video was such an honor! Love it so much 💖💖💖
*brilliantly done. this message is GARGANTUAN and i hope that it spreads wide.* 🚛🌇❤
You and your team created a beautifully constructed video to present the architects' creation and the new owner's vision thank you.
what did the house cost?
What a great video ❤
excellent job!!! I was just thinking of how well it was filmed. I hope (for us viewers) that you get more of these!
The fact this is in Brooklyn makes so much sense. Has an industrial look and feel to it. Shipping containers? Very creative tbh

“Respond creatively to what humanity has push aside” beautifully said!
This is what AD should strive to be. Make the architecture and interesting design the “celebrity.”
AD's audience clearly wants to watch celebrity houses.
hi just echoing the voices saying this is the type of content we want
Views tell AD the opposite story. To me it's obvious why AD won't stop covering the cribs of the rich and famous.
@@user-wm3hu7lo1gexactly, these people are just vocal minorities, the general public loves to watch those types of videos
I've seen the odd shipping-container house here and there before, but this is the nicest one I've seen by a distance.
I love not knowing who these people are and getting to know them via their beautiful works of art. Chefs kiss AD
The house is lovely and the designers are delightful. I would be very happy to see them in more videos showing off more of their projects.
LOT-EK is one of the most innovative designers around these days and this shows you why. They make high art out of the large-scale equivalent of a milk crate... Now that's something!
I used to live in the neighborhood where this house located, was always curious about it. Thank you for this video
what's the address?

Used to?! Where'd you go?

Very clever design especially with the conjoining terraces

There is nothing in this that is “saving the planet” lol. It is a giant townhouse with one occupant. Incredibly wasteful.

Beautiful and it fits the NYC landscape. It's like a 2049 design in our current timeline.

finally architectural digest posting about actual architecture . who woulda thought...
I love how they love Johnathan.
Bro does have an eye for interior designing
I bet it’s the best sleep ever when it rains in that house 🏠 💙
Wild 🤯 driving by this everyday in Bk for years and now being introduced to these beautiful people 🫶 thank you so much AD ☯️🕉
this is one of the BEST AD episodes
most practical and beautiful version of container building
The connected terrace is genius!

These architects are masters of their craft
Wonderful to see the chemistry between Ada and Giuseppe...and the house is nice 2
Master bedroom is just pure mastery. Gorgeous and functional. I’m in awe
Wonderful use of shipping containers. The architects shared their ideas and joy as they walked through the project with second owner transformations. Thanks.
I used to live in the apartment building across the street and always wondered what it looked like in there. Thanks AD!
This was amazing! AD needs to feature more of these narratives. The celeb cribs are ok, but this is legit AD inspiration we want to see and learn about.

We walked by this house years ago on the way to a concert on the river and marveled at the design.
I design container conversions and I love what these two have created. Thanks for producing this video.
This is a thing of beauty. I love seeing what people do with containers.
Now these homes……are genius! That architecture and design…pure genius ❤
Love how they have the perfect voices to present interesting architecture but also have the background, interest and candidness
This is stunningly beautiful!
Absolute stunning! Would love to see more of their buildings on AD!
I really enjoy this industrial style of house, and reusing materials such as containers is exactly what the world needs. Sadly it takes away the sustainability argument when only one person lives here. It seems to me that living truly sustainably cannot be luxurious
Yea the whole thing is really ridiculous for one person
You should read “Shatter Me” by Tahereh Mafi
Yeah, by when the container were probably 5 to eight grand each. 30 to fifty grand for the building. It's amazaing❤
They make a great team! Such vision is wonderful to see come together.
If I win the lottery, I know who’s designing my house ❤
just what i thought
Omg I used to walk past this place all the time and wondered what the story behind it was, now I have my answer! Very cool
this house is on my block with just a bunch of regular buildings and townhouses. so cool to finally see inside
where’s that?
Monitor Street in Williamsburg
@@luisdavilaortega appreciate it 💪🏿💯🙏🏿
This is the kind of content we want!!!!!!
WOW‼️ Think this is the epitome of ‘industrial design’. Congratulations👏👏👏✌️🇦🇺
That colour suits the building amazingly
Beautiful! Absolutely gorgeous! Love it! I need a smaller version! I applaud you both! True artists!
this is actually well done, understanding how to use discarded materials like this to make a cozy house multiple levels is beyond normal builder's thinking.
6:14 Love, love, love the lamp fixture! So unique, but it fits so well in the space
Fantastic living space; it transcends my ideas and dreams. Very well put together and presented video. Thank you, Ada & Giuseppe.
AD I appreciate your viewing of architecture and celebrity homes, we can enjoy both... well done
love love love this video! Ada and Giuseppe are amazing and so insightful!
This is seriously cool. Gorgeous design and use of materials. I also loved how the owner has decorated the place. Well done to all involved.
extraordinary, and environmentally-friendly as well in terms of re-using materials. absolutely love it!
This is INCREDIBLE!
What a journey into what is possible - what we can create! Love the couple - the design is genius!
I initially thought it was an apartment complex but now realize it’s a house!! The structure and concept is very fitting for NYC.
BEAUTIFULLY DONE! Even the angled utility pole outside! Chef's kiss!
I've driven by this house countless times. The sloping garage overhang always looks a bit scary... Really great to learn the background of it!
Pure art!!!! And it figures a couple of Italians would do this
By far the best place I have ever seen, and I watch A LOT of these kind of videos, LOOOOVE that each floor got it's own terraces and that they are all connected, beautiful place.
You two are such a beautiful couple and it reflects in your innovative design. It was a pleasure watching. ❤
Most STUNNING house I've ever seen in any interior design video, across all the channels on this platform.
It’s wonderful to see the contrast between the steel elements and their thoughtful integration throughout the design. The interiors feel warm and inviting.
the connecting terraces, wow!
Outstanding video. It is wonderful to see these architects pushing the possibilities of using containers for 30 years. They have taken the concept so far and I'm sure they are not done.
Thank you both for the determinnation to create with such a simple idea.
I absolutely love the stainless steel kitchen. Stunning in such a proper way
Very creative and love the interior design of the house, loved the 2 creators who had the loveliest metaphor for creating
I ❤ that stainless steel kitchen ! Indestructible and so clean looking. ❤ it !
Absolutely stunningly beautiful. Love the lamps and light fixtures all around. And ahh, the Italian accent... and design.
Jonathan has great taste, I saw the flex of those Devore speakers in the fireplace area!
such cool people and cool house! new found respect for AD! you have inspired an architect here! love this video and explanation and the styling everything is just very innovative cool!
I stayed across the street couple years ago and saw this building. I was mesmerized!
Love this! And what a lovely couple! First time occuring to me that it must be hard for architects to let go of their creations that they are so proud of.
Big Lot Ek fan here, really glad to see an in-depth tour of one of my favorite houses of all time. Thank you!
AD finally understood the assignment.
wow!! the thought process for these containers is amazing! extraordinary!!
I never thought container house can be this fun
I love how the slits for the thin windows create the effect on the ceiling
Genius architecture, stupendous drama of exterior.
This is a great green way to reduce overuse and recycle what we have. I just wonder about the stress elements on the structure. But this is fabulous.
Keep showing both , i like seeing celebrities houses it gives me ideas 💡
Seeing this is crazy. Lived in this neighborhood all my life, and remember always walking by this.
I'm more of a New England Shingle-Style person - but I actually do like this townhouse, it's unique.
spectacular!! Homes for now and the future with infinite possibility for variation according to need. Well done, Bravo!!
Wow, that is amazing. Such vision!
Beautifully built building, just fits especially for New York, love the concept & ideas embedded like 😭
That is just lovely. I really like the terrace on each level and being able to get to each level with the stairs. Very nice.
Would love a three/four story container house. Always loved that they could be repurposed
Absolute Masterpiece!
Simply unique, simply stunning……….. and that’s all I gotta say about that ! Very clever & creative, Love it …….
What an incredible structure!
