OMG, she is styled from head to toe. LOVE IT. And listening to her clearly and articulately detail the reasoning behind each decision, is so satisfying. In a world of incomplete and convoluted information, she is giving me life. Thank you!

@flowergrowersmith449 6 лет назад

These apartments in New York are wonderfully generous in their large proportions - they are like houses! It's very interesting to see them and I love your professional presentation and explanations. I've learned a lot. Thanks Paula! (Alison from Australia)

@fostercat751 6 лет назад

When I first moved out on my own, I wanted a blue and white bathroom. Now that I see that in the kitchen you created, and I really like it. The bathroom is awesome too. Kudos!

@pmddllc 6 лет назад

Yes, it is really surprisingly lovely! Thank you!

@Olehv94 6 лет назад

@itsacarolbthing5221 6 лет назад

Oh, Paula, that's stunning! What a beautiful home that will be. I noticed you left the master bath til last, just to make me wait!!! I can imagine sitting in a big chair next to the dining area windows, drinking tea and watching the snow fall. Just stunning. Xx

@pmddllc 6 лет назад

Hey Thanks!! I think so .. once we can get that neighbor to cooperate!! it's really beautiful.

@jo3lsilvaracidesigner946 6 лет назад

Yes it will..

@itsacarolbthing5221 6 лет назад

I hope it's resolved swiftly. Xx

Once again a triumph!

@AgentAO7 6 лет назад

I have been waiting so long for a new video. Congratulations Paula for this stunning project which is absolutely gorgeous. I just love everything about it. Talking about wallpaper, I’m glad it’s gone & these new walls look really beautiful. Great galley kitchen design. And the toilets look really classy. Overall, the whole apartment’s layout has a really nice flow. And love seeing the snow outside! Looks really cold out there.

@pmddllc 6 лет назад

Awhhh Thank you!! Wish we had more.. but this year projects had delays and bunched together but two more will be coming soon! :)

@SABOREAME68 6 лет назад

Lovely transformation, minus the misfortune of the leaking situation. Having said that, great attention to detail throughout while incorporating style without lacking comfort or function, good job ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

@pmddllc 6 лет назад

Thank you!!! :)

@jordanxfile 5 лет назад

I wouldn't have covered the parquet floors in the bedrooms, but that's what the client wanted, I assume. Thank you Paula for another great video :)

@patriciagurwitz509 4 года назад

Great videos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@pmddllc 4 года назад

Thank you!!

@sojournerhouse 5 лет назад

Just gorgeous! White dove trim with what wall colors? I just found your channel and I love your style. You are pure perfection.

@kathysexton6993 5 лет назад

Bravo Paula...it is a stunning renovation!! What color paint was used in the living room? It’s gorgeous with the blue kitchen!

@msl5131 6 лет назад

I find it humorous the complaints of traditional style. I wouldn't personally call this super traditional. Transitional for sure.

@tigergreg8 6 лет назад

Nice apt, but I've never seen lighting fixtures in a shower. Not that it looks bad, it just seems a little scary to me. Haha

@pmddllc 6 лет назад

tigergreg8 Hey, well these are waterproof fixtures.. they meet code requirements and nothing to worry about!! Thanks!

@seattlebeard 6 лет назад

Would you please let us know the color and manufacturer of the blue kitchen cabinets? I am very impressed with it. Always enjoy seeing your work. Cheers.

@pmddllc 6 лет назад

This is a custom color we matched to the client sample she loved, designed by me with my custom millwork source who does all my kitchens.. Thanks!

@scottthomason2635 5 лет назад

Paula how come you never give the cost of the renovation?

@pmddllc 5 лет назад

Privacy.. but to give you an idea it runs $350 a foot as a base line.

@stevie68a 4 года назад

All very well done as usual. I do wonder about the light fixture in the shower. It seems dangerous and not up to code. Some kind of outdoor light would be safer, since these are designed to withstand wet weather.

@pmddllc 4 года назад

Thanks.. No, nothing dangerous and totally up to code. We're inspected by NYC and regardless, I would not use something that isn't up to electric code for wet spaces!!

@2Cambell 4 года назад

Yes!!! People shy away from blue in a kitchen area, but not me!!! The second bedroom is odd shaped. Did that influence your paint choices?

@pmddllc 4 года назад

Hi. Yes, it did... 😊

@davidrodger5131 6 лет назад

Amazing! Paula, do you prefer use can or Led in your ceiling lighting?

@pmddllc 6 лет назад

Ahhh.. LED. definitely.. and thank you!

@msl5131 6 лет назад

Paula McDonald This turned out fabulous per usual. Wondering if you have a go-to recommendation to avoid the dreaded cold, operating room feel of LED or the sometimes off color. That is my biggest reason for avoidance thus far. Thx!

@Pww642 3 года назад

i love Paula's designs, but I would've knocked out the kitchen wall entirely. Seemed like it would really open up the space and bring the kitchen window's light into the whole apartment. but i'm a sucker for big open spaces.

@pmddllc 3 года назад

Hey, thank you!! Well, honestly my vote as well BUT, owners had a different perspective.. didn't like open kitchens.. Oh well!!!

@james5460 6 лет назад

I am always impressed with how you do the bathrooms, it's such a complete transformation. On the flip side, I do not like that "draw microwave" at all. Just one more thing to break and be incredibly annoying to have fixed (could be difficult to find parts or replacement etc).. Plus, you always have to bend over to use it, which also is annoying. But, I can see how a client would want it if they have enough $$$$$ and don't care about paying for servicemen. Nice walk-through.

@emmanvelelele7180 6 лет назад

I'm first to comment. SSO HAPPY

@pmddllc 6 лет назад

THANKS!!

@liasummers1824 5 лет назад

how on earth did you get that stove and fridge through that narrow entrance?

@pmddllc 5 лет назад

By designing wide enough passage!!

@bluefiretekken4836 6 лет назад

Love the videos! Great work! I am wondering though why in the USA the "traditional" style is still so common? You don't have that in the EU anymore and I think it looks very nice.

@austind3459 6 лет назад

it is probably based more on consensus and being more of a "standard" for the real estate market; you will probably get a larger buyer pool if you stick within more traditional standards....more unique properties, you might be taking a gamble with..and in New York it might even go by neighborhood; or even down to the particular building..(some buildings might not even let you renovate outside the style of the building or have particular covenants which need to be approved) you probably won't find a lot of "traditional apartments" in Soho but it is probably the norm on the Upper East Side.. I think this building is over by the United Nations.. and its pretty traditional area as well..

@pmddllc 6 лет назад

Just personal taste of the clients! Thankfully they are all different.. and thanks!

@bluefiretekken4836 6 лет назад

Austin D interesting to know! Like I said over here in the EU everything gets modernized and the traditional style is not being used anymore unless it's an old historic building that's being restored. Wish we'd go back to the old style though.

@austind3459 6 лет назад

of course there are always exceptions..my perceptions of some neighborhoods might not be a matter of fact.. there could also be different subsets of traditional.. I think Paula does a fabulous job in recreating a space; or reconfiguring it to accommodate a more open floor-plan; but still in keeping with the building..

@youyong28 4 года назад

Why would you cover hardwood with carpet? The carpet will get dirty, especially if you wear your shoes in the apartment.

@pmddllc 4 года назад

Well, that answer is the client's choice. I'm not a fan.. I would prefer area rugs.. custom runners.. you can always remove them.. but client's rule..LOL!!
