@@grt2106 the suggestions they make would have you crucified off the Statue of Liberty for even attempting, there’s zero way you would get anywhere near a power tool if you put in an application for this kind of renovation
@@grt2106 You'd immediately breake your leace and be charged your deposit and several thousand dollars in fines for not only doing unsanctioned construction, but also risking the structural integrity of the whole building (but seriously man why can't we be better, new york made it law that every room needed a window back in thr 1800's and now I can't live anywhere on either coast for less than 1200 a month. I'm not even kidding they're making a new development by my parents house and they haven't even broken ground yet but they want 1.5 million for the house)
Cant go one of these without : Little John / Trump / Liam Galvanized square steel Eco friendly wood veneers Extension screws sometimes from aunt Induction stove on top of a foldable table Grandmas coffin Soft padding to pervent collision 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Underneath all the funny parts of the video, I think this speaks so much to people, because everywhere we have to deal with skyrocketing housing costs, so it feels satisfying to imagine actually having a full house even with what you can reasonably buy.
I personally like cozy, compact houses that have that kind of "treehouse" feeling but there's something about these that feels kinda soulless to me. Maybe I can't enjoy them as much while knowing the kind of bullshit the housing market forces people to live on, pretending like it's somehow acceptable to deprive them of basic needs if they can't pony up millions. Or maybe it's the modern minimalist aesthetic that completely destroys the treehouse feel and makes it feel more like a pod, idk. Some of them are kinda cute though, like the Hong Kong coffin house. That one's small but feels actually possibly liveable for a while, unlike the 1sqm rooms.
These rooms exist. I hope you know that? In New York and Japan that's normal. Even in the richest city on earth Zürich housing became unaffordable and there's literally no space.
That’s why I feel like this videos could be useful Sunday because it’s scary that this could be the future for millions of people across the world as police is like New York city, New York everyone has to live in tiny crappy studio apartments and it’s gonna come to the point where people are going to get money, hungry and start stuffing people and small areas like this and have to work paycheck to paycheck
nah bro. he's onto something. i've already place an order for a loft bed on amazon and i'm going to build a small office under it. this generation is going to be all about making the most of what little space we have.
@@GalacticTradingPost will you place a squat toilet and a shower at random places which cannot have actual water and sewage pipes even in theory? Are you going to use galvanized square steel and eco-friendly wood veneer in order to construct a non-insulated chamber without propper supports in the middle of a sky scraper? I mean, this is basically a parody to asian apartment design
@@user-tc9sk4ei9y the attempts at plumbing obviously aren't realistic. the only thing we can take from this is framing out beds, storage, and fold up tables to save on space.
@@GalacticTradingPost I meant this is basically a parody over apartment design in Asia. They have all those 0 sqr.m. apartments with loft beds for quite some time now
If a few thin bars of steel can support an entire room, a bed and a person sleeping on top, and other stuff like sheets and electronics, yeah Basically sleeping with an iron bar holding you up over a cliff
@@derbyblade9572 Communal stuff is exactly what those cage homes have. It'd be way too expensive to pull separate canalisation and water supply pipelines to each individual cage. The fact that the author doesn't understand it shows that he's never ever been in a cage apartment. Or even a communal apartment, for that matter.
@@derbyblade9572 P. S. I'm not Chinese, I'm Russian. However, I lived in a communal apartment as a kid. With a common toilet, bathroom and kitchen. As far as I know, Chinese cage homes are like communal apartments. Only worse and more cramped. Have YOU ever lived in a communal apartment? Or cage home?
This is a mere rofl dude! All watched designs (could not force myself to watch them all, because it's funny only a few times) are actually will work only on paper and far from being optimized! And even if they will be really working, they would be a hell to live!
Liam makes 5 million and lives in a closet. Think Liam has no understanding of money or real estate. His Aunt supplies screws and mattresses, his neighbour lends him space for a shelf, his girlfriend buys him a crummy closet to redesign and supplies Air Jordans. Wife lives in a box yet has designer bags.
I couldnt imagine having tacobell and coming home to use the toilet only to suffer for a few hours bc the smell is gonna be trapped in the tiny apartment 😭
This reminds me of my parent's tinyhouse :'> they started building with no plan, so now the hallway between the bedroom & kitchen is also the only bathroom
It's common everywhere. In our country people usually extend car garages upwards to make some spare rooms. Or extend first or second floors of the building blocks. For third and upper, this, however, is more rare.
I wouldn’t let a pet to live like that. Let alone a human! It’s claustrophobic and a fire 🔥 hazard. “COFFIN ROOM⚰️” is the perfect description for a small closet with windows.
11:39 is probably the best one so far Edit: actually no.8 is a place I could actually comfortably live in (give or take a few things) but that’s because it has more space so idk if that counts.
The statics of the building will never change when using Galvanized square steel and eco friendly wood veneer. It will also not change if everybody in the building would do this. John, Liam and their friends know how to beat physics and statics of buildings. Don't forget. If you finish the project you will be able to walk through walls, windows and the air.
lets transform the zero square meter room into a fully function house, little john has been collecting trash in shanghai for several years managing to save 100,000 by living frugally then, he bought a tiny space less than one square meter here, Little john can only build upwards and has to curl up on the floor, eventually little john reached his limit and decided to redesign like this. firstly he removed the existing windows and expand the space with a frame made of galvanized square steel reinforced with horizontal and vertical welds. then using his last bit of sayings little john buys expansion screws to securly attach the frame to the wall and covers it with eco-friendly wood veneers and covers with eco-friendly aluminum panels install luminous sheets on the ceiling to brighten the space without any protruding objects, cover the floor with wood wax oil paper boards which also provides storage for out of season quilts and bedding. with a soft matress turns it into a large bed. big enough for little john and his girl friend.
14:37 Y'know, I was skeptical on this one, but the 1v1 Toilets really sold me. Can't wait to assert dominance by beating all of my friends in Pissing 1v1s. Gonna have to start going to Taco Bell to win those Shitting 1v1s though.
I have a small problem in clip 1 1. No apartment like that doesn’t exist 2. Its gonna be more expensive taking down the windows, then the room 3. Its like a cleaning storage room, with brooms, washing lotion and more cleaning stuff And 4. Everyone is seeing the giant structure bigger then the others from the bottom of the building
