As a person who has lived with white walls for a number of years, I find the renters beige a cozy relief.

I absolutely LOVE that headboard.. and I think you did a fantastic job!!! ----> HOWEVER: as someone who spends 12+ hours a day at a computer, it's awful watching you remove ERGONOMIC chairs (that are good for the health if you have to sit a lot) with chairs that are good for people who only sit at their computer for 20 mins at a time. It's unrealistic and ergonomics should never be messed with.

Fantastic makeover! I am 74 years old. I love your channel & truth be told I could live in this space. Awesome job!

That carpet did half the work! Such a great choice to get a huge carpet. It really grounded the space and made it a whole new room!

This is one of my FAV studio fixes!! Super cozy and very finished. The large size art pieces and rug are a good scale for the space. The curtains are really elegant. Love that you gave her so much extra storage. As a plant lover, I'm glad that you got a faux fiddle leaf fig considering it would not have gotten enough light where it was placed.

The mix of wicker and black metal ♥️, it’s a special place that actually feels like a home instead of a dorm room.

Love all the warm tones together! And that headboard is stunning. Side note: Anyone else always scroll to the bottom of the comments on Alexandra's videos ready to fight any mean commenters? She gets so many unnecessarily mean/rude comments compared to others I watch. Alexandra is a gem.

A great way to divide the room is linnen curtains hanged from an ikea seiling rail, its super smooth and you can open the space when needed and completly close it up when u have guests

Always impressed with what you can do with such a small space, but equally as impressed with James’ edits and you and Carla’s dance moves 😂

Alexandra, I come to your channel to feel a lift in my mood. When I feel overwhelmed by what's happening in the world I come to your channel. I love the music in the beginning. It's very uplifting. Thank you!!! Don't let ANYONE, not even yourself, tell you that you are not a good designer. And you and your crew are sooo funny. Love ya'll.

Love, love what you did to this space. I’m enjoying your makeovers and how we see the process from start to finish. So many channels are hardly doing these kind of makeovers anymore. Please keep it up!

I like makeovers like this where there's some kind of constraint (such as wall colour) that has to be worked with. Makes it interesting to see what solutions are found.

it's so good to see you not just work around the beige but work with it. It's so challenging especially when it's not at all a wall colour you'd gravitate towards if you had the choice. It isn't a colour that I personally love, but I love what you did with it, I really do. I honestly think it wouldn't look as good with cold white walls. I think the only way to truly be happy with renter beige like that is if you embrace it when choosing the rest of what has to go with it. If you just ignore it and pretend it isn't they're, it will always look out of place instead of something that actually looks good and cohesive. And you absolutely nailed that.

From drab to fab! Now this is a space to enjoy coming home to and inviting friends over any time. The gallery wall is a winner! This makeover has so many good ideas for small spaces.

Stunning!! A drop down table which hangs flat when not in use under the kitchen window would be cool. With a couple of small barstools would be a cute dining space

This may be my favorite makeover you did. Everything works so well together, the colors and textures. That gallery wall, wow. The prints and the layout is perfection. Great job team!

Thank you for the zip tie trick. I just bought a wooden frame thinking I could attach it to my old headboard. It did not, but I saw this and immediately said, "Hey babe! Alexandra Gater just said she zip tied a headboard to a bed frame!"

Hi, love your makeovers. I wish I had known about your channel a yew years back , when I moved in Bordeaux France, could have used some of your tips for decorating. Here , studio appartements are really small. I lived in a 20 m2 (~215 sqft) appartement for 5 years. And it was a steel deal because it had electrical heating, no mold, new windows and no rats. I tip for you: I too used ikea packs for shoes but I hot glued a piece of wood ( ironically found it in the woods) on top. P.S sorry for any grammaire erros. English is my 5 language.

Pretty sure this is my favorite makeover of yours yet! To go from a totally blank slate & make her apt so homey & just beautiful!! And the renters beige - love that it was embraced & really shown as it’s best version of itself. 😂😍

I like that you have fun together as a team and I think you’re getting better and better every day 🥰🥰🥰

This was really nice to see just making the best of what is already there. As much as I love seeing spaces being repainted to bring new life, I don't think I would do it for time and money sake. I would love to see more makeovers like this

I can't believe you made that wall colour work!! Well... actually I can!! you rock Alexandra!! :)

This is probably one of your best makeover! U made the rental beige so classy and modern! Well done!!

I have that West Elm coffee table that raises up in my studio apartment and it’s SO GOOD. Not only does it function as a dining table or desk when I need it, but having the storage inside was key. I added casters to the legs so I could wheel it out of the way when I bring my bed out (I have the Tandem Sleeper sofa from CB2)!

Beautiful makeover. I don't think I have ever seen a "renter's beige" that dark of a tan before. It is so cozy and inviting!

This was really beautifully done. Brava, team! I’m getting the feeling that moving in with stuff that doesn’t work for your smaller space is just as awkward as moving in with no stuff at all. You have that unique design ability to know what can work, which is where so many of us get stuck. .

headboard is the star of the show no question

Beautiful makeover. What I like too is that because you moved her desk to the opposite wall, She could use it for her eating space because her kitchen looked really tiny. Love the warm colors. You truly made a home for her. The room divider could be used across her kitchen door for when she goes to bed.

The decorating choices are so beautiful using the wall color as a starting point. The colors and textures and lighting give off a warm, calm, and very cozy feeling. Your videos are so inspiring and helpful. Enjoying my coffee and your video on Saturday morning in San Diego.

Loved this makeover! ❤️❤️❤️ I’m dealing with renter beige right now and just got a warm rust couch-what a game changer. Starting to realize paired with the right colors it can feel so cozy. Thanks for the inspo!

Wow that was such a good transformation! I find often when you have constraints you push your creativity and get an even better result

I'm speechless Alexandra!! At first I really didn't like the layout you went for and I thought the color was to vomit lol. But you made it into a cozy inviting modern boho calm BEAUTIFUL space! And now I want it toooo! 😍😍😍😭💕❤️ I feel like this is eithe the one or one of the best makeovers you did! It's certainly my Favorit favorite

You should try and do a basement apartment with smaller (basement) windows and a space that doesn't get a ton of light. Love this so much!

This is one of the greatest Studio Fix eps yet.

Something I did as a room divider in a small space was get one of those rolling closet rods, hang all my viney plants from the rod & put a shelf on the bottom for bottom plants and it creates a rolling wall of greenery that can be easily moved around to divide spaces plus it’s not full coverage you can still get peaks through to the other side!

Hanging netting around the bed is nice, the netting can be hung to hang halfway down from the ceiling. We hung beads around my daughter's bed and I've seen a curtain that's on a track in the ceiling running the length of the bed that she could leave open or close. Using command hooks to hang the rod is renter friendly.

Ahh so excited you're doing an ep where you leave the renter beige walls! I know they're not typically seen as stylish, but I'm not allowed to paint my walls either so it's super helpful to see how spaces can be successfully styled with beige walls. The final product looks so cozy and you guys did a great job

You made the coziest place on earth , as u said Alexandra...👌 Really loved this journey from 'nothing' to 'home🏡'...

THIS! Definitely one of my faves! Would some macrame been too much or too obvious? Anywho, I imagine James is behind all the hilarious & on point cameo vid slices (here: Gaga)… James, do you keep a massive collection of drama snippets in a folder or do you go searching for the perfect one each time? Or are they stored in that fun head of yours? They are always a massive add to the vids - good on you!

Well to you all who hate beige, I have a beige kitchen in one of my rentals. It's more like vanilla actually. It came with the fake light wood formica countertops. So I painted the cabinets moss green. I put in like this tan grass cloth type wallpaper as backsplash. And a couple times I styled it up, I used dark apple red accents, like red cotton rugs and dishcloths. Also some red and white checkerboard stuff too. With accent lighting on, it looks very cozy there. Like warm and gold.

The color palette and all of the rattans are stunning. Such a boho vide and makes me love the wall color so much!! Looks like you chose it for the design. Well done!

One of my favorite makeovers you've done! I was really hoping you were going to pop a piece of light wood on top of the Ikea shoe cabinets to tie in with the rest of the wood accents and make it looks less Ikea, but still love it all!

The gallery wall made a big difference and what a couch!

WOW!! It's a completely different apartment now. I'm speechless. Super cute, chic, and cozy! I think I had to go back like another 4 times to rewatch the reveal till the end of the video.

I was having my doubts but then you showed the space at the end and I am in love. Now I kind of want my room like this. Is so cozy!!

Grabbed my coffee, I’m ready for this transformation. Love from NYC! ❤️😘

Covering up the floor was SUCH a good move. What a difference, wow!

Those doors to the left of the front door would be a great place for Wayfair's new secret passage bookcases. They are doors that look like a bookcase. You could use those as a starting point and custom the rest of the wall so it looks like just a big wall of shelves. That would be awesome!

Wow ! It looks absolutely beautiful ! Loving the headboard & sofa !

STUNNING!!!!!!!!!! The space looked so large after the makeover! The headboard is like something out of Lord of the Rings and that couch looked so comfy

This turned out so beautiful! I feel like paint can really impact a space so it was so nice to see this for people who are not able to paint their walls,especially renter’s beige!

Lovely! Such a good job working with the constraints of the space - you turned it from empty and a bit sad to warm, welcoming, textural and full of comfort... and super attractive, too.

Stunning before and after! ! love everything about this makeover (except the placement of the bed! Just for me, I don't want to wake up and see right into my Kitchen!) Net/tulle curtain (from IKEA) as a divider? I'm already looking up the headboard, linens and side table basket thing! Amazing transformation!

The suite feels absolutely beautiful - colors, furnishings, decor. I love it all.

I know the biege walls were a change and for you but I think this makeover is one of my favorites. So good! Team AG did an amazing job.

Good job. Having limitations always make it hard but you knocked it out of the park. And how generous of you to gift her this!

My absolute favorite yet! I really disliked the wall color, but after you finished, I didn't even notice it. Fabulous job! I'm going to try and incorporate some of your ideas in my study--if I can! (And you are always such a bright light!)

Would love to see how you style carpeted floors. I live in a rental with beige carpet and it’s been challenging to select the right rug for it… Also, would love to see families being featured in this series! My husband and I are expecting next month and living in a one bedroom (less than 500 sq ft)

butter sheets are my favourite

I loved that you also brought in black and a darker brown to break up the different beiges and light browns! Also, the round cushion on the bed??? So cute!

Good job Alexandra! I don't understand how anyone could "dislike" this!

I love the apartment makeovers. Would like to see how you finish off the kitchen & bathroom too.

Now THIS is an actual challenge- working with a feature that is not working and make it work!!! Awesome 🤩

The space feels very cozy and welcoming. But yet again, it looks like AG lives there. It would have been nice to have a place to sit and eat, something she didn’t have before,. Also a couple of stacking occasional chairs for when friends come over. And that tiny wall shelf next to the bed is decorative, but I think a thin profile console table could have been nice behind the sofa which could also act as a bedside shelf. And the fact that the radiator was forgotten is a fail. Overall very warm and calming vibes.

Wow, that large rug and fabulous couch, plus the headboard . . . soooo goood. Everything looks great. I am so glad you are doing small space make overs. Love these. They were a favorite thing of mine during the pandemic; I think you were doing more work spaces then, but I just love a good, made over space!

I'm awed! 😲😱 Stunning final result 😍 I love this series and had missed it a lot. It's so cool to see the magic changing people's lives. You're a miracle, team AG! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

this is unREAL!!! I can't believe that you made renter beige look amazing??? nice!!

Another one hit out of the park! All of the colors and textures meshing perfectly. Very good.

I guess Inderpreet wanted the bed there? For me personally I would have had the sofa there...the office desk facing the window between the kitchen and sofa, (then you can swivel the monitor around as a tv :D...but then you could have easily used the divider to section the bedroom from the living area and still seen the headboard..also easier to sleep withouth the full light in your face from the window...but I DO love what you've done with this studio

love how warm the beige walls make the room feel while the styling really makes it feels fresh and modern. i've been getting tired of only seeing white walls only being used when there's so many other great paint choices . great job team AG!

This is so good, Alexandra! You really made the renter’s beige work and it looks like you picked the colour intentionally instead of being forced to design around it!

Great makeover. I normally hate beige but I hardly noticed the walls being beige because the whole vibe is warm, inviting & peaceful. I love that there is some divide between kitchen & living space in this studio. The head board?! I fell in love. The store you linked is no longer available. I did find it though by grabbing a quick screen shot & using Google images. It’s still out there folks! 😊❤

Amazing job! Looks fantastic! I love the headboard.

Wow! You hit it out of the ball park on this one! Loved it!

I loved the interpretive dance in front of the gallery wall. It completely made the video! 😉

Your designs have really grown up over the years. Thank you for finally making renter beige look delicious by pairing it with sexy blacks and trendy wood tones.

one of nicest makeovers on this channel I think, lovely space!

I don't mind renters beige; it's a warm neutral! This was a beautiful transformation.

Love the dark touches in this space, and your other coffee table suggestion which can be used for dining. I love that you needed to work with renter beige, I think it made you more creative! Love studio fix. More like this please :)

Nailed it! Definitely getting a comment compliment. This is my favorite style with the rattan and blacks, neutrals, and textures. Very BOHO and I'm here for it.

Loved the design. Especially the headboard the wall art. Good job

This was a great makeover, love the gallery wall and headboard!❤❤

I really love how you mixed in black with the design. The storage under the bed, the baskets in the desk area, the coffee/nesting table are all black and I'm impressed with your choice. A great overall design!

I think this is my favorite room you’ve ever worked on. It’s so great and gives people who see this so many ideas on how they can work around the renter paint in their own spaces!

woooow amazing job!!!! You made that wall colour look soo trendy and meld with all the decor. It looks SOO GOOD.

I love your videos, they are so fun to watch 😍

I didn't think it was going to work because it was too masculine but no, it's beautiful! You know what you're doing - I've started watching more of your vids - I'm moving into a studio and need ideas! This one is beautiful.

Most hated color turned to a beautiful unique abode! I thought it was a mistake eliminating the screen, but that headboard deserved to be seen! Blessed and safe days!

It looks fabulous, Alexandra! ♥ So warm and cozy. I do have to say that the renter's beige here looks to be more of a taupe and I think it is quite pretty. Personally, I really don't like white walls; I find them cold. Just a touch of colour - off-white, cream, light taupe - is so much warmer and cozier, IMHO. ;) Anyway, another great makeover. Love it! ♥

Hypothetically, I would want the bed hidden somehow. However, in the end, everything came together so well, and he headboard was such a feature. It all looks so cozy and warm - yes, partly because of the beige!

I came here when there was zero dislikes, I hope it stays like that. Well done Alexandra!

Nailed it as usual Alexandra. Gorgeous transformation. Can we just talk about how fabulous Carla is? Her personality is a lovely addition to TAG, and she never fails to crack me up. 🦹🏻‍♀️

inderpreet, what a gorgeous name.

A 10, better and better.

I LOVE watching you, Alexandra, you have the face of an 18 month old. Reminds me of when my children were little and everything was joyful. You're also a pretty good decorator.

It doesn’t even look like the same space anymore! Wow just wow!

Beautiful space!

Absolutely beautiful. Love it 😍

SLAYED... Love The Head board And Simplicity Of The Whole Look

Alexandra you've really outdone yourself here! The beige walls have totally transformed with your use of black and brown tones to tie it into the space, love this so much!!
