I feel like a just took an introductory class in interior design. It was thrilling. I don't think small apartment design gets enough media coverage. - please keep going with this concept.

If you are looking for inspiration for small apartments, I'd warmly recommend Alexandra Gater here on RU-vid. She has tones of amazing solutions and beautiful designs. I am addicted to her videos. :)

I'm all for the daybed if it's comfortable. If you live in a studio you have to decide whether you'd prefer to live in a bedroom or a living room. After trying both, I opted for the living room set up, which meant a daybed.

@JeniWoo 8 месяцев назад

So do you make it up every night for sleep or do you leave the bedding in place until company comes over? I’m thinking about getting one now 😅

@dhgemein2 8 месяцев назад

Yes,@@JeniWoo, I make it up every night. I have a cabinet a few steps away where the bedding stays hidden away during the daytime. The mattress cover stays on, though, and I cover it with a pretty blanket on top of which I arrrange some throw cushions. The latter migrate to a chair overnight.

@salamista 8 месяцев назад

my husband and I ended up having a futon and some floor furniture; so at night we pull out the futon (and pillows and comforter); during the day we put it away and instead we take out a foldable coffee table and foldable floor chairs it requires discipline to put things away every morning and evening; but it's so worth it, our room is small but feels so spacious

@deekang6244 6 месяцев назад

I’ve seen great studios that have separate. No way do I want to pull out a bed every night.

@Mrjudsonjames 6 месяцев назад

Same,I’ve owned/lived in few different studio apartments & always opt to have it look like a living room as that’s nicer to entertain guests or relax alone in. If affordable I do love Murphy beds though, that double as something else when closed up, like a desk or dining area. And they have to be gas lift so you can easily move up or down with one hand.

@ChelseaLori 8 месяцев назад

Love the design he came up with but I think it’s lacking in terms of being aligned with Sara’s preferences, and the rendering is not accurate to his drawing for the daybed and coffee table. The rendering gave her a regular depth sofa I’m guessing 84” length (regular slightly long sofa), not a daybed, and a bigger coffee table. Sleeping on a regular depth sofa even without the cushions is like sleeping on a slightly narrow twin bed. Clearly Sara most likely doesn’t want to sleep on a twin bed or she would’ve already had a twin bed🥴 Homegirl wants enough sleep space for a guest to sleep over. She needs a deep daybed at minimum. An accurate rendering would show less floor space open in front of an actual day bed and a smaller coffee table. Also, Sara clearly likes a neutral palette… if she wanted pops of color, she could’ve easily done that herself also. My guess is she may not like the warm pops of color with the sofa cushions and chairs. The space he designed is really beautiful and efficient, but probably would not make Sara happy if she were a paying client.

@najeebafarheen 8 месяцев назад

Not only did I love the final design, I loved how he brokedown the issues and addressed everything in an organised way. Well done!

@taylormedia1000 8 месяцев назад

It is a great way to virtually add space to a small apartment. The biggest problem with small places is the landlords who constantly say don’t change this or drill here. But everything you’ve proposed is fantastic.

@mdeeaonetwothree5162 8 месяцев назад

Well thought out and presented BUT so disappointing that it was only rendered rather done. Give him some money and let’s see what it would really look like. This is why I love Alexandra Gater and Lone Fox.

@darcyjane8031 6 месяцев назад

exactly. A rendering is NOT REAL. Do it in real life and youll find out that what hes designed is NOT PRACTICAL.

@lucadicriscio8182 8 месяцев назад

Oh it's an apartment? Final rendering looked like a therapists office

@evelina2363 6 месяцев назад

Loved how he explained every step of the redesign, especially the part about making use of the light and where it lands. The rendering feels too modern compared to Sara's taste as it shows in her before pictures but the layout looks perfect.

@leihilton9546 6 месяцев назад

This should be a series, he's the best designer on this channel by a mile!

@Harry-fk5of 8 месяцев назад

Disagree about the total white walls. It becomes a cold box when a small apartment is painted true white. The mirrored screen is ingenious!

@SilviMukherjee 8 месяцев назад

Loved the design! But white is very demanding! One little spot on that daybed and you are done. For regular use, it wouldn't be a practical solution to use a white daybed/sofa.

@merrywalsh2809 6 месяцев назад

@mantronixtube 8 месяцев назад

you lost me at daybed. that was cheating. no one i know thta isn't a college dude wants a daybed.

@krazedcrazy1 8 месяцев назад

It’s really beautiful but let’s be for real NOBODY wants a day bed (where people have been sitting on… leaving their outside germs everywhere) to sleep in, most people I know would probably want that separation of sleep and relaxation … also being that close to the door is off putting 😅 but that’s just me I guess

@Irulan10 6 месяцев назад

@sharonkaysnowton 8 месяцев назад

Darren Jett, you did a great job on Sarah's small apartment. I agree with you- a daybed would be perfect. I think she is use to the traditional bed and traditional sofa. That may be why she felt she needed both. I like the idea of a mirrored coffee table. You made everything lighter and more spacious. Thanks for the video.

@Nyx773 8 месяцев назад

... and thereby doubling or even tripling the rent. This looks like it is in NYC and therefore is at least $2000 (probably over $3000). Do you have $6000 per month for rent?

She obviously can’t afford it at this time. Saving and planning.❤

@thebastardgift 8 месяцев назад

I enjoyed AND become enlighten listening to Darren and how he dissects the issues, integrate the residents' needs, intellectually develop the remedy and artistically create a living space so vastly improved that even though it's a small space the redesign looks so different it does not seem as if it is the same location.

@victoriahoughtalen3403 8 месяцев назад

Love these videos, I learn so much. I’ve lived in my DC townhouse rental unit for five years. The living room is long and serves as the living, dining, and desk space. The kitchen is outdated and lacks storage solutions. Because the unit is long but has many functions, we struggle with paths for walking without narrowing the space. We painted the walls earlier this year to bring color into the space, but now struggle with adding art and lighting that works for the unit. We have a brick fireplace and hardwood floors that we love and I’ve done my best to remove clutter (especially on the floor), but I’m feeling stuck in next steps to make this place the eclectic city hideaway I want it to be

Depends on the daybed. I would go for one that has an actual mattress and isn't just an oversized couch.

Nobody wants to pull out their bed every night unless they’re transient. The space looks more open now but it feels more sterile, lacks personality and barely any time was spend showing us the changes talked about. The end felt very rushed.
