Even though it’s beautiful, as an artist myself I cannot understand how she wanted the place darker. I need all of the light possible, I think she didn’t think of that. The reference photos all had a window next to the desk, that's why it worked, but this doesn't have any direct light. But I love the storage.

@NitrosMom074 Год назад

Totally agree. Multiple Ott lights might help.

@jarcha4200 Год назад

Agree, and the lighting they put 8n there for her is not functional: just one wall sconce and one task light🤔. Not nearly enough light for any artist I’ve ever met.

@CK_1144 Год назад

Agree. The lighting results in that space were a total failure and lighting is everything for artmaking. Very surprised.....

@glitteringseaandrainbow Год назад

Even if they gave enough lighting, this wall and ceiling color will totally alter her artworks colors and tones in this space so it won’t come out the same way in natural light or cool white. The organizers is awesome though

@leahwilson9152 Год назад

I could see a space like this working for digital art, but traditional? she did mention needing two task lights, she’s gonna end up buying another one herself

@princessof2k5 Год назад

This space is everything! I’m speechless. That pegboard is incredible. The room looks so much bigger!

@sherrycohen1824 Год назад

The desk and organization are terrific, and the color is beautiful, but I think it's way too dark for an artist to work in and figure out what colors go best with what. For me, such a dark color in a space that's 30 sf would be claustrophobic.

@hammerchickdesigns Год назад

I don't think I've been more compelled to comment on one of your videos, but this reveal is amazing!! The amount of storage in that little space is amazing! GO TEAM AG!!!

@ctoverbey Год назад

Same!

@RC-kv9rj Год назад

I also agree

@carolyngrotaers4454 Год назад

I agree 💯

@patriciaharing2500 Год назад

Wow that is amazing how you were able to get so much in a small space

@MistressMiona Год назад

I’ve been a professional painter for almost 20 years. You’re rolling ceilings all wrong. Don’t go front to back, roll left to right instead, walking backwards as you roll. You’ll be able to reach twice as far going side to side, with significantly less chance of straining a muscle because you really aren’t stretching at all. Plus the paint splatter won’t be going right over your face and hair, it’ll be a foot or so in front of you. By walking backwards as you roll, you’ll have a perfect view of the paint you just applied, it’ll be easy to see any dirt, paint skins or ridges. And you’ll never pass under the roller, so you’re less likely to get paint in your eyes. You should also start with the ceiling (think top-down approach, like you would for dusting/cleaning). That way if there’s drips on the walls, you’ll fix them as you go without having to go back and redo things Usually we bring two sizes of extension pole as well, a 3-6’ for walls and a 5-10’ stick for ceilings. You get better control (read: less ridges) with the longer stick. Plus the longer stick is actually less tiring since you can keep both hands below shoulder height. Might not be worth it for a small project, but if you roll any decent sized ceiling you’ll definitely appreciate the longer stick

@LeslieStroz Год назад

This space provides lots of useful storage space. But that wall colour won’t work for an artist. The three dark green photos the client showed (or a neutral mid-gray) are what she needs to be able to paint without colour bias. She will also need to add two lights designed for artists (like she requested) to be able to accurately see her work in a realistic way.

@danazaruba268 Год назад

You read my mind! I have so many art and sewing supplies and I’m also a teacher and often work online from home. So many studio or small home makeovers never address the need for artist’s space. Thanks a lot for this.

@AlexandraGater Год назад

So happy to hear this, happy decorating!

@whateverislovely8654 Год назад

Very creative storage spaces but a cluttered desk doesn’t have much room for larger pieces. Also she asked for two moveable lamps to shine on her work in opposing directions. You need strong task light sources to prevent shadows

@NitrosMom074 Год назад

Not to mention that the dark paint color, though beautiful, totally skews the color of the artwork. Multiple Ott lights might help.

@Kath-Erina Год назад

Exactly, that was the only thing missing. But since the other lights are not hardwired and the tasklight is from ikea, she can easily just get another one (or two if she needs?) and mount it on the pegboard. I'm sure she'll be able to figure this one out, should be an easy fix! On that note she will probably reorganize the supplys to her needs (high traffic closest etc.) but that's the best part of this design in my mind because of the easily adjustable system

@Annodx3 Год назад

i think the space looks beautiful, but i also agree. and i feel like there shouldn't be warm light bulbs but more white. I also am not sure if the desk's depth is long enough.

@mubarakashabbir8627 Год назад

I agree. Although beautiful color but not a friendly one for creative space and the light supply is not enough. Desk is to cluttered.

@irenero8932 Год назад

I think by the place where the larger desk is she is going to block herself all the light.

@annsmith7196 Год назад

For those who paint, shouldn’t the space have light neutral walls to ensure you are accurately viewing the paint colors? This closet seems way too dark to paint in.

@maralfniqle5092 Год назад

Absolutely yes!!

@arh1234 Год назад

The owner is a painter and said she didn't like the light walls. Maybe varies with lighting?

@sillis9942 Год назад

It depends on the artwork.. maybe she makes dark and moody art... I LOVE the style but for my bedroom, in a studio I need bright and aired spaces with natural light...

@daniellemartin9896 Год назад

I foresee her having to repaint the space as soon as she realizes how much that dark color will affect her perception of color while painting. Also, the lighting is extremely insufficient.

@1cole256 Год назад

I would love a dark room like this to paint in, it looks so inspiring

@icecreammaker5007 Год назад

Not a huge fan of the paint color and I think it needs more light, but everything else is spot on! Great work Team AG!

@erikakrause3044 Год назад

As a professional artist I can't imagine that wall color or that light bulb would be conducive to seeing wth you're actually doing.

@NitrosMom074 Год назад

Exactly, Ott lights might help!

@NitrosMom074 Год назад

Although the design is amazing, I’m not even sure that Ott lights would help in this dark space. An artist needs white studios so the wall paint color does not reflect onto the project.

@redj6681 Год назад

My first thought as well. A very good design except for the wall color

@amarketing8749 Год назад

The artist herself didn't want white walls. But I agree the lighting was an absolute miss. I think part of the problem is the decorator might be choosing from lighting options she was given. Not all of the walls and the pegboard should be all one color. One accent wall in the deep color and others in a complementary very light color. Using blonde wood or naturally stained light wood also would have made it less dark. In the end, the decorator's first priority, is what the client wants. EDIT: I commented BEFORE I knew she painted the ceiling the dark color too. Dark and moody is NOT DUNGEON DARK. Sorry this was a fail. She went too far with the paint and NO real lighting. It will take several coats of white paint on ceiling alone. Kinda sad.

@ac1646 Год назад

Wow. All the light is on the other side of the room anyway. What amazing windows! I can see why the nook seemed a good choice to store stuff, but it was too dark even with the white walls. I think it makes a great storage area and I love what Alexandra did but I'd load up the trolly with whatever I needed for a particular project and take my painting stuff out into the main room and sit at a table near the window anyway. I would love that as a storage area (she says looking at all the pots of pens, pencils, brushes etc scattered all over he place) 😂😎

@jackandlill Год назад

I think Graham is "seamless & perfect!" lol! But seriously tho - watching Graham work & create is ever so satisfying!! You all did a fantastic job - The team made the dream happen!! What a fantastic & unique space 🏆

@thestripelessbee713 Год назад

This came out super cute! Love the pegboard and the color! A few things i noticed though…she specifically asked for 2 task lights so i think it would have been good to give her a second light in her art area that she could adjust. She also said she liked maximizing her art table so i dont think she will like having that little ikea drawer taking up space on her art desk.

@tracygarrett3952 Год назад

She'll move things around, like we all do. They couldn't leave the peg board empty. This just shows how it could look.

@jhutch1681 Год назад

I'd like to hear Grahame narrate his own projects. Since he's the designer it sometimes feels like you're repeating what he told you to say. Painting tip - when you are working over your head, wear a cap and safety goggles :) On camera, the colour reads as oxblood. I think for me, it would be too much dark to work by, but it looks very dramatic. I think I would have chosen a more terra cotta tone, or tried to brighten some of the space with a lighter colour (maybe a paler pink-er version of the colour on the ceiling, some white trim or desk top, etc.). I would choose bolder lighting (though I love the wall sconce), and added a mirror to bounce light. I would not be able to work facing the dark pegboard or wall. It's hard to tell from the video, but I wonder if the desk could have been placed in the opening of the space to face the room?

@martylovejoy Год назад

Already knew you were a talented artist and that you have a fun, friendly personality... but hearing you share that you've been in therapy for six years, in an effort to normalize therapy and promote Better Help, was really generous and compassionate - you are a real gem, Alexandra!

@JL11775 Год назад

What a stylish and creative transformation! You and Graham slayed this! I bought your book for my niece who just moved into an apartment so that she may be inspired. Well done, TeamAG 👏👏👏

@peggynorton5145 Год назад

How does such a beautiful dark color make this space look bigger even with everything in it?! Amazing redo guys, simply amazing. !!!!❤

@miaclee Год назад

This is genuinely one of my favorite projects you’ve ever done after years of watching your channel. You absolutely changed the way Yasman’s day to day will play out with this amazing space. And I’m obsessed with the color!

@helocandeloro3932 Год назад

I know your channel is directed to millennials who are still renting. However, you're so talented that you inspired me to change my kitchen and lounge, as I needed a low budget solution. I'm a 45 years old home owner in England and I just love your channel.

@juliebey8240 Год назад

STUNNING 😍! I am a crafter and this is the perfect space with a small footprint👍 I love when Alana said “it’s like when brown and purple make a baby”😂 great color 😊 yay! Team AG👍👏✌️😃

@maryannkom299 Год назад

Such an interesting color, it seems to morph into different colors depending how the light hits it. I saw purple, burgundy and brown.

@maribellelebre6809 Год назад

Right? I’m practically drooling

@janwoodward7360 Год назад

Nice job but I am wondering why you didn’t use any of the many already available pegboard and hook/ peg systems available? Seems like heavy ply and big holes just limits possibilities and costs way more than it needed to. And I kept watching for watercolor paper storage. It can’t be stored upright….it must be stored flat. And is often large sheets, think D’ Arches water color sheets…20 by 30. So where is she supposed to keep that?

@embee5557 Год назад

One of my faves y’all done. Especially since when I recently moved I felt the pantry could hold my desk or craft table. Thanks for the inspo!

@annac9534 Год назад

The Better Help app has been proven to be a scam. It’s been known for months and months now. At this point, I find it frustrating when I see RU-vidrs STILL including sponsorships with Better Help. At the very least, I’d expect content creators to do a little research before agreeing to a sponsorship. A lot of people are worse off after using Better Help, and it’s an app that will take your money and leave you will under/unqualified therapists. I hope RU-vidrs heed these warnings and stop accepting sponsorships from Better Help merely for a paycheck.

@wanderlustandsparkle4395 Год назад

It had a slight scandal because, like usual, people don't read the fine print. It's not a scam, so to say it is when it literally is not is misinformation. She, unlike some people, states that this is a paid partnership. Tbh, it's not her fault you didn't read the fine print.

@annac9534 Год назад

⁠@@wanderlustandsparkle4395I did not get scammed by Better Help. Never used the app a day in my life, so there was no fine print that I missed. You, like many other people, turn a blind eye when creators you like do something unethical to make money. I recommend watching videos by real victims of Better Help who are left worse off after utilizing the “service.” At the very least, creators need to do research on the brands they’re collaborating with. If AG did research and STILL went through with this partnership, then that is highly disappointing. It really is a blatant way to show you don’t care about viewers in my own, personal opinion. Does the fine print you’re talking about tell potential patients that therapists on the app trauma dump during sessions? Or that many therapists ghost patients who are in dire need of help? Didn’t think so.

@TKOin2life Год назад

Have you guys ever thought about partnering with a tiny home builder? I love to see how you would do the space allocation, design and decor. As always, well done!

@corinnecorley9584 8 месяцев назад

I live in a tiny house and I'd love to see somebody do a tiny house make over but I would never want anything that isn't real wood and real metal and I would certainly never want any ikea products.

@gradyvandenbosch Год назад

Yeah, LOVE this! Back then I loved your series "make my space work", and this make-over brought back these days. STUNNING use of space, great storage solutions. The nook looks ten times bigger. And also beautiful. As an artist I myself prefer a neutral colored art studio, but this is, I think, also a living space. A stylish part of the condo. Team AG made me happy again!

@thehollowbox Год назад

One thing she might find useful is a lazy Susan. On each side is a different median. Paint, brushes, tools for that task in one place that can be swapped out.

@CS-ux7mz Год назад

This is absolutely stunning, I love the peg board and all the different storage solutions created on it! I know you love warm light but I will say that that orangey toned lightbulb is definitely the wrong choice for someone needing to paint, since it will greatly affect how colors appear. But that's a very easy fix for her. Gorgeous!

@virginiatolles1664 Год назад

Storage and organization: A+. Color: F. Artists need lighting, lighting, lighting. Dark walls and ambient lighting don't cut the mustard. Sorry, Alexandra. I have to give this a thumbs down.

@annac9534 Год назад

I agree. The lighting in the alcove is horrible.

@joheldenbrand4985 Год назад

It looks like a cave not an artist nook, to dark. Ask any artist !!!

@ej3016 Год назад

no offence but that is not a stand up desk - I’m 5’0” and no way it’s even tall enough for me to stand and work at - interesting choices but it’s not as functional as it could be - am a paper crafter and cross stitcher so see this space thru those eyes - would be interesting to come back six mths later to see how young woman has made this space work for her 🤔

@champagnemommy Год назад

This is some of your best work yet! 😮 I specifically want to mention that shelf with the jars inserted is brilliant. It combines beauty with function and safety. The jars will never slide off the shelf and break in 1 million pieces. I am totally stealing this idea for my workspace.

@battyboo3732 Год назад

It’s also great because you can still take the jars off the shelf if you need to use all your brushes or pencils at once! And if you do accidentally break one, they’re just basic mason jars from the dollar store so they’re easy to replace

@margieyou Год назад

The organisation is A++ but the colour is horrible

@fireopal001 Год назад

I usually love everything you love. One thing she asked for was two lights. Two task lights to light work so no shadows. What did you give her? A cute sconce which does nothing with yellow bulb. And a clip on lamp. You are an artist you know white day light bulbs. Geesh.

@lorahart56 Год назад

The space itself itself is wonderful. The paint color? Not for me. I need bright white. The paint color of the walls really affects the way the colors of paint, etc. appear, so I wouldn't have a good representation of the exact colors and how they work together.

@livingwithlk Год назад

@NitrosMom074 Год назад

My thoughts exactly. The space is AMAZING, but the color sucks all the light out of the space. I would need a light and bright color to do creative work, especially if painting. An Ott Light might help.

@@NitrosMom074 exactly!! I came here to say the same thing… I would love it if it were like a bright aqua, or some thing 🩵

@justanothergigi Год назад

I would be worried the darker color will reflect off of light colored paint in her projects and not provide the true color. Same with the very warm light.

@dorotheanewham4264 Год назад

Agree it looks stunning and wonderful for crafting, but the dark colour is no good for painting and achieving true colour🤷‍♀️

@littlelizzyann Год назад

@@dorotheanewham4264 To be fair, Yasaman was asking for a dark color for the walls (and I like the brown-pink over green-blue a lot). I agree she needs more lighting, but that's a pretty easy fix (another one of those clip-ons, and maybe whiter light bulbs).

The color, let me put it this way: I would change it immediately, no matter how much time or effort it'll take, the storage was clever.

Des rangements astucieux et le petit escabeau bien rangé et accessible 👍🏻 … mais je n’aime pas du tout cette couleur trop foncé et si peu lumineux pour travailler 🥴… mais si Yasmine s’y plait, c’est essentiel ! J’aurais laissé la partie des étagères en couleur beaucoup plus claire, en gardant les étagères peintes foncé 😉… Et il aurait été encore plus élégant d’installer deux lampes mobiles identiques (et pratique !) plutôt que cette bizarre lampe qui n’éclaire pas bien 🤒… mais ce n’est que mon opinion 😊 Il y a un super travail d’équipe et Graham est absolument génial 👍🏻 À bientôt ! 🌸🌸🌸

@chibimena Год назад

Hey Team AG, this was a great makeover. Your team always kills it. I’ve been bingeing your vids for like a week now cause I’m hooked…however, partnering with Better Help is not a cute look. There are so many allegations, testimonies and controversies against the company that are not hard to find at all and it is ridiculous to still see so many youtubers partnering up with them. It cheapens your ethos because you’re either not looking into these companies or you don’t care. Hope you take this into consideration!

@librarynan4610 Год назад

I was NOT into that paint color but once you put it on the wall I was converted. Absolutely brilliant job!🌟

@jemma50 Год назад

That is such an amazing transformation, Alexandra! WOW! Love it!! ♥ The colour is just perfection...so cozy and warm and inspiring. Well done, Team AG!

I love that you were able to design her space for everything she needed. That was a tall order and you delivered. Love the unique color and pegboard . Great job guys

I have been waiting for a video like this. I have so many ideas for a corner art/creative space!! Love to see more art space makeovers

@drei5573 Год назад

I've always wanted you to tackle an art studio so this was really fun to watch!

@briantsang1831 Год назад

To be completely honest, although this was another great show of design and makeover ability, I think it was a miss with the practical design aspect. There's a reason most painters' studios are white, and that's to neutralize influence from surrounding environment and colours. I also found the scale of everything disproportionately large in a way that made the nook feel crowded rather than allowing it to breathe. The height of the taller portion of the L desk is nowhere near tall enough to be suitable as a standing desk. The storage bins are flat and don't allow for things to be stored upright, which means having to rummage through supplies every time the person needs to find 1 thing. Last thing is the sconce - while it looks cool, the the light itself is very warm, again not optimal for painting, crafting, and designing with colour. Highest respect for what Alexandra does - I just think this one missed the mark a bit in some key practicality areas.

I’m tearing up! Love how creative the team was for this tiny space! Her reaction was perfect!

@juliecooper4029 Год назад

This was a brilliant makeover featuring great design, dyi and so many creative solutions. I also appreciated the mental health feature and Alexandra sharing her experiences.

There is so much betterhelp controversy. I really wish people who stop partnering with them. Also this makeover is adorable!

OMG, Thumper walking through the wet paint is amazing! It's so fast in the video, but I love Dave coming back and repainting it!

@carolyngrotaers4454 Год назад

Looks fabulous. It's my favourite makeover that you have completed ever. Could you please include this makeover in your next book? I can relate to Yasmine 💯. I'm glad that you provided Yasmine with extra pegs and shelves. I would hang up the ladder and the Ikea storage box, though. This will create more space for her to move around. Great job, Team A.G.😀👏🎨

Team AG crushed this one! (As usual.) The paint color is so rich. It's giving deep eggplant. GORGEOUS. Everything about this design was amazing. ...and then, THERE'S GRAHM. Always blowing the mind!!! ENDLESS GENIUS. He is a walking Diamond Mine. Seriously.

And the bonus cameo by Thumper 🦮🐾🐾🧡

Alexandra and Graham are the ultimate dream team ❤. I swear you get better with each transformation….

I am so sorry but the mustard holder and red brown walls just screams McDonalds ketchup and mustard🤣

@terryhyslop1422 Год назад

I wasn’t feeling the paint color at first, but it grew on me, the storage solutions were great for an artist to have everything available.

@sarahfarmer7529 Год назад

I am IN LOVE! I’m about to move and this gave me sooo much good inspiration for my own art space 🥰

@letstry4993 Год назад

You've got extra room between jars to add holes for scissors, pliers or drivers etc🤩

Fast forward to 10:03 to avoid the usual blah, blah, blah at the beginning.✌🏻

I love everything except that as an artist I would have chosen less warm lighting

@sarasaponaro6271 Год назад

Wow! I didn’t know I wanted a new desk until I saw it! I have been lusting after the IKEA pegboard for my creative space & I will be stopping by get it. That color was like a chameleon from the first viewing to the reveal. I may need to check it out IRL too. Another stunner Team AG!!👏🏻👏🏻😍

@m.maclellan7147 Год назад

"Brown/red color." Call it 'Burnt Sienna" for all the artists out there 😂

That utility peg board I need to make it for my own space now!

why is everyone and their mother sponsored by betterhelp when they are exposed for being a scammy company?

@barbarahaberman349 Год назад

It's beautiful, but I feel like the lighting is nowhere near adequate.

@mommygarcia9137 Год назад

Wow ! You’ve done it again! It looks beautiful & so organized !

@rosey_ie Год назад

I would love to see you begin to re-visit your old projects and speak to the clients about how they feel about the changes you made now that they have lived in the space. I mean no disrespect, just a critique from one designer (architect and production designer ) to another, but while this project has a great immediate visual impact, for me I would have a number of practical and code-related concerns. From the colour of the space impacting her artistic work; the height of the “standing” desk work surface; to the proximity of the top shelf and baskets to the sprinkler and vents; to the looping cable dropping in the corner, the colour of the bulbs chosen, and the location of the wall sconce limiting the size of her canvas. It would be useful to hear from old clients about elements that maybe didn’t work out as planned such that the team could bring that info into new projects with them. As I said though, great visual impact.

I think feedback later regarding what worked and what didn't is important for ANY business. But especially when you ate designing something based on a phone call with some to "determine" their likes, dislikes & preferences.

@Costanza_G Год назад

So so beautiful!!! Maybe the colour is a little too dark but the idea is stunning!

@robinsilk9445 Год назад

WOW! Amazing transformation! I really enjoyed watching Team AG tackle this one!

@tynaedwards8452 Год назад

I first need to say this. I love that you are so informal that your dog is on your video, I love Graham's old worn sneakers on the peg board and I love that you are so thoughtful to share your therapy info with us. And that is the best office/craft workroom! It is cozy and spacious looking both and what storage the pegboard has. Another great space team AG!

@patriciat7769 Год назад

7-9-23 What an incredible makeover! The way you created organization, function, and visual appeal in such a tiny space is just amazing! Speaking of amazing, shout out to Graham who is Mr.Amazing. What a talented carpenter/ artist he is. Glad he's on team A.G.!

@carolann811 Год назад

While not steampunk, it makes me think of some really big airship or train where the creative engineer McGyver guy sits in his cubby and solves all the problems by pulling down random objects and then saves the day. Or Mad Max. In a good way 🚂

@maaamiii6918 Год назад

So many great storage and space-stretching ideas! Love the functionality. And Graham is a genius artisan far beyond a carpenter.

@thecozyconstellation Год назад

amazing!!! that red-purple-brown color is beautiful and rich & moody! what a cozy useful corner!

@sherryscottschafer4712 Год назад

I love everything, but the paint I’ve always admired every single thing you do but the paint the area looks dark and Dungy. The storage amazing the color, a disaster.
