that coffee table/dining table is just fantastic design, both engineering and aesthetics.

That guest room actually should be his room tbh.

That layered felt wall is such a cool idea.

when i lived in NYC, my girlfriend and i always wondered why the hell the people upstairs kept moving furniture around the whole day into the night. it was such a mystery. now i finally know. it was so damn annoying... FYI, you're neighbor downstairs hates you.

I'm GUESSING he used Accordion walls, but I'm not entirely sure...

ok ok we get the concept of the accordion wall

I love love love how he implemented the suggestions people commented in #1... this place is awesome! Love the improvement

Your documentaries are a living library of conceptual choices. Excellent for compiling options. Kirsten Dirksen you are my favorite video author.

If it were t so long, I’d watch again and COUNT how many time the dude open and closes that according curtain!

What a lot of work, just to live day to day. I'm tired just watching.

Much nicer than the #1 flat. Like the attention to sound.

These places always seem very cool, but after a while of living in them you would just end up leaving the bed down all the time etc. People are inherently lazy.

I saw just him on a show where he had a beautiful off grid home built for himself in Maui. Plus they even converted his vehicle to electric power.

I’ll always love the concept of rebuilding a small space to get the most out of every foot, and this was a pretty neat one. That being said, anyone that buys a 350 sq ft apartment for $750,000 needs to rethink their life decisions.

That's amazing. To have such a small space but also be able to have guests is fantastic. I would love to be able to have family and friends come stay if I lived in an attractive place like NYC, but then to also be able to officer such a comfortable private space in such a small apartment would be the cherry on top . Well done! So creative - what an elastic mind to be able to think around the limitations of tiny-space living.

The table is the table of my dreams!!

I am amused how he describes a thousand compromises and softens the blow by telling us how “easily” each soul-leeching task is accomplished.

I liked his flat #1 when it was published, this has even more refinements. Well done. Can't wait to see his #3!

I wanna know what the 8 Zach’s thought about accordion walls.

I lived in a MUCH smaller studio in NJ with a view of NYC for $985 a month back in 2017-2018. This studio is a night and day difference lol i wish i had this back then. But now im in texas with a 3 bedroom house, 2 floors, 2 bathrooms, master bedroom and 2 walk in closets and his and her vanity and 2 parking spots for almost half the price

Every time that wall came out it reminded me of a mobile home shower door.

I won't remember where I've stored my gold, after moving the couch squares.

Never seen such love for *felt*

Great on its own, but seeing the iteration from the first to second apartments is remarkable. And finally, FINALLY, someone is thinking about noise!

the zac thing was actually very funny

My primary school we used the accordion walls to seperate classrooms. Would get tired of moving furniture around all the time

I love the coffee table/DR table concept. The curb in the bathroom is genius.

Another fairly spacious apartment with high ceilings masquerading as a 'tiny' space. Given the feeling of a medical facility with those folding walls. Also the obsession with over engineered 'multiuse' furniture. Seriously an old wooden crate can be a coffee table / dining table /desk with 'concealed' storage underneath.

This man loves his felt

I really love the wet room. As someone else suggested just place a mat on the floor(outside the bathroom door)so you track water through the house. The whole space is really nice and relaxing

This is an amazing piece of engineering! Very clever, and very comfortable.

A-MA-ZING!!! I AM NEEDING A SMALL SPACE. THE TABLE THAT TRANSFORMS AND HIS USE OF MATERIALS IS *AWESOME* !!!

this place has very high ceilings, which makes for more storage and more openness -- as usual you have found something fascinating to share

That acoustic offcut wall is pretty damn smart. Well done

Amazing space!! So well designed. Thank you for sharing.

Graham has done a great job making the best of his living space!!

And you don't need to sleep on the couch that guests sit on😉 Good feature!

This video will show you how an accordion door works.

Just gonna say it, this dude is a genius! such a cool and functional space.

Absolutely brilliant, beautifully and cleaverly resigned

Absolutely amazing and fascinating. Such a clever use of space! I recognize the living/dining room table and Murphy bed from Expand Furniture - wonderful company. I am blown away by how much he has fit into such a small space and how multi-purpose each room is. I love the felt soundproofing best of all - gonna steal that idea ;-D

Amazing!! Kinda reminds me of that guys place in japan that he designed...may even be smaller...it on yt. Mahalo for sharing! Magnificent! Aloha!🤗🌈🏄‍♀️❤️🙏🌺

I love this guy! As soon as I heard his voice I knew who it was. I loved the previous project he did and wish I could adapt our condo with our family of 6 with similar elements. 💖

So much grey and white, it feels more like a hotel room than a home to me. Funny, that he says so himself at the very end. Very cleverly and efficiently done, though. I'll give him that!

How many times can he demonstrate the damn walls~

Why not put all that heavy water under the window seating blocks? You never move those... 😉

I liked the way he divided the two bedrooms.

This is brilliant! This guy is a genius! I love the thought behind it, the attention to details, and the high end finishes.

brilliant. 😎 he's done a fantastic job. love the felt tiles idea.

Wait a minute! His freezer was empty, his cupboards up top and along the wall were empty but one bottom one. Does he really live there?! That and the Zach themed Dinner For Schmucks make me side eye this guy. Idk

I don't understand how people love like this... Life's just too short, and I need space...But hey,, if they're happy, I'm happy for them!!

As someone who does most of his work from the sofa, that home office would be my bedroom and the living room would be the guest bedroom.

Oh man, I loved the LE1 design so much. I also love this design. Personally I would have made both walls the same accordion wall, but everything else was great. It would improve on the already great acoustics, a much better facet of this design over LE1. I love the use of felt everywhere. Really adds to the design. The wall was fantastic. Stapled felt, simple, wonderful, and functional for acoustics. That table was great. I loved the last table especially, this one works very nicely. With the right design, you could probably even do 2 of those sections that fold out, one on the other side, to make an even larger table in larger spaces. You'd probably need to have some supports though, might be reaching that instability region, but it could be done. I would probably just sleep in that office space all the time lol. Not even taking the table down either. As you say, it's about keeping your body happy, not the house, the house doesn't care as much. It's easier to manage bacterial growths on the house than it is to manage ill health of the body. Much easier. Far easier to warm up than it is to cool down. if you are too cold, get active. if you are really cold, put clothes on, if you are dangerously cold, artificial heating. if you are too hot, you can't take your skin off. Just doesn't work like that lol. The less you need to cool, the better. I love the look of this bathroom especially. The texture on that wall, love that. That curve is nice. I love it when rooms have that sort of thing happening. Just so subtle and smooth. I prefer it over other things like the usual skirtings you see dividing floors / ceilings to walls. It's also trivial to clean. None of these edges where stuff can gather and solidify. I love seeing your ideas. I look forward to seeing more from you in the future.

This made me feel anxious and depressed

Now THIS is NYC LIVVVINGGG!!!! Smart yet stylish.

The first version was my favorite. However he does come up with some brilliant space saving ideas.

i'm in love with that table

"very quick" have you heard about doors? they're super fast

Wow! He thought of everything. Fab apartment!

One thing I've noticed since watching these small space videos. The owners are always very proud of their sliding walls....

It's not a home, it's just a hotel room or prison in Norway :) , no personal stuff, I could'nt live like that for long term.

Did anyone else hear the theme from 2001 A Space Odyssey in their head at the end when he was opening the blinds?

Love the look and all the textures used. Functionality a+

I'm glad I found this video, never would've learned that "darkness is actually important for us to sleep". This dude is trying to reinvent the wheel lol.

It is simply a commercial grade collapsible ironing board that has been modified to have a lower overall preset height-select adjustment, and then attached to whatever table surface you'd like. If any of y'all find a source plz be sure2share here.

I always question myself is these folde-able furniture mechanics wouldn't wear out with time, like getting jammed or loose?

that acoustic wall is genius, great for a home theater.

Another awesome apartment with great use of space! I especially love the black out blinds!

6:49 'These tables are very str-CRACK!"

I bet the bathroom sink, mirror, basin and work surface get soaked during a shower, you'd probably have to wipe it down afterwards. The floor of the bathroom would be wet for a while too, meaning you'd need a mat outside of the door to wipe your feet when leaving. No socks in the apartment! Apart from that the rest of the place is pretty cool. The bathroom needs more work.

How wonderful! Thank You for sharing your awesome ideas and home👍🏻🙋‍♀️👀

So easy to assemble his furniture. I like this...

And half life gone in folding and unfolding things! 😃😃😃 And to be honest, instead of paying for this expensive folding stuff, he could easily get another 20 m2 space, I think. 😂😂

man, he had so much zacks on that couch..

Very original & attractive acoustic wall featured!!

OMG!!!Finally!!!!! Ive waited to see this apartment for so long!!! Love you Kirsten!!!!

"there wasn't enough warmth" So he just made all the colors dark and gloomy. He's got some pretty great ideas but wow does he repeat himself to a nauseating degree.

The “eight Zack’s” story is when I knew with pure certainty that I do not like this man.

Loved this. Loved the bathroom most. Very European. A friend of mine on Central Park west built a tiny bathroom in her kitchen, at the end, next to a tiny breakfast nook, with an invisible, heavy door. It had a little pie shaped sink in the far left corner, a round accordion mirror the was handy to the shower, in the middle, toilet under the window, to the right, which had a large area under it that hid the plumbing down below, so the toilet tank was hidden...just a chrome handle to flush. The shower head also had a hose attachment. The whole bathroom was white tile, with w blue& green row for color, at chair rail height. Reminded me of a swimming pool. You could hose off the whole room after. It was GENIUS, for the kids. It was actually a big apartment wth a room for the two boys off the kitchen..a huge master suite, with an enormous sunken living room facing two streets...and when they had a daughter, they built a nursery in the 2nd huge foyer closet! Bed waist high, clothes hanging below, with toys, a rug, etc. a soft paper lantern. Clever use of space. Across from Tavern on the Green...so they had Central Park..a terrific place to play...but also an enormous roof garden. New Yorkers use space well. It's worth it to live in the best city in the world! Thanks for the tour.

Well done 👏 this was beautifully thought out.

It would be nice to know where he purchases the items, like the refrigerator, slats which held the office counter, Murphy bed.

He's got enough space to not move furniture around.

Kirsten thanks for the nod to the Naduet brothers in the first few shots. Gorgeous and heartbreaking. Thank you.

This has some really good ideas. The sound proofing is very nice. The felt on the walls over the plywood did a really good job with deadening the sound. The blackout shades are a smart idea too. I like this one tine but nice.

How do you find all these places?

I dont like how the batroom is set up.... just to me having the toilet and shower like that makes my germaphobic me squeal :(

Ingenious engineering. Love it!

Great use of the space. Wonderful ideas. Congratulations!

TINY FLAT DREAMS

Everything seems perfect, but I think a dish washer is kind not that needed, instead maybe add a washing machine? Since in last apartment as well I didn't see one so how do you clean your clothes are where do you dry them?

Absolutely amazing!

I just love how one properly designed piece of furniture can transform the way the apartment functions.

*This guy is good, keep in contact with him.*

8 Zach's oh lordy that would be a hoot!!!!

This is his second one. Brilliant thinker. Impressive work. Keep up the good work man.

I truly think it’s ingenious. Love it. Great materials, very practical, doesn’t seem too much of a hassle dealing with the bed...the table fantastic. The only thing I didn’t like too much was the bathroom, where basically everything gets wet, but other than that. Great!

Why make a small apartment even smaller by dividing it into many tiny spaces? Very claustrophobic. Knowing NYC laws, I ask myself, Is it legal? Maybe to live, but for sure not to rent, rooms are not large enough to afford space for more than one person (NY Square Footage Laws Per Person).

Does anyone know where I can buy this coffe/dinning table?

Love this appartment. Love the idea of the felt curtain.

I just love the table!
