Wow! You've done an incredible job with a space that seemingly had it's limitations. This is what I love about good design; it not only solves the problem on a practical level, but also a pyschology one. This design seeks to alleviate stress around clutter (hello parenthood!) and trying to maintain a clean, efficient environment also.Love that you've not only designed the space, but were sensitive around budgeting as well as pointing the couple in the direction of how to DIY the storage area themselves. Only thing missing from this video...an update from the couple to see if they enacted the ideas. Hope you can get an update from them, otherwise an absolutely beatiful job!

This is soooo good! This is exactly our problem with our tiny flat in London. What I found amazing was that just by shifting some of the furniture in the bedroom, you could completely change the quality of their wfh life! I wish we saw what you did for toy storage though in the kids' room (definitely need some tips for that).

I really like the design choices you've suggested for this apartment! Do you ever do a follow up to see what the spaces look like after you present the design to your clients? Was there any consideration given to making any changes in the children's bedroom or were the clients happy with the function of that space? I"m definitely going to search for more of your videos!

I agree, I would like to see a video addressing how design aspects have been used. I think it would be interesting to see the improvements made by the redesign and also where there may be further improvements to be made. Such as this design, I think that top opening boxes would be more accessible next to the dining table.

Where I'm from (Argentina) most middle class families of 2 adults + 2 children (sometimes more children) live in a house/apartment just a bit smaller than this. It works wonders, but the layout is much simpler since it's a square shape. The new layout with the workspaces is so good! The only thing that was missing was kid's toys everywhere haha
