Makeover: A Bachelor's Condo Glow-Up

Рет қаралды 486,223

In this dramatic before and after, see how designer Natalie Chong of Nest Design Studio gave a bachelor’s downtown condo a much-needed facelift. By removing the popcorn ceiling and replacing the dated hardwood floors, the space went from stuck-in-the-past to sleek and stylish. Natalie gave the city oasis an industrial feel with touches of concrete, black-panelled windows and a monochrome palette. You’ll love the kitchen backsplash’s gilt detailing, the principal bedroom’s serene grasscloth wallpaper and the spacious dining room table, perfect for poker night. Plus, learn how Natalie made the kitchen cabinetry budget-friendly.

Natalie Chong is still the best designer I see that uses affordable options!

@marquamfurniture 4 жыл бұрын

Also a few things that are not so affordable. But that's OK, too. Save on one so you can spend on the other.

So true. She always uses some furniture from ikea. Love it.

I love how candid she is about saving money with Ikea and using leftover tiles. She knows where to spend to have that wow factor- like to scones in the bedroom. 🙌🏻

I am still a Bachelor (personal choice) at age 56 and I would move in this condo immediately. Entirely up my alley. Love the color scheme. Kudos to Natalie Chong, the designer for this beautiful interior.

I was NOT expecting that level of change inside one of those builder basic white box condos. This is a vision that has been executed perfectly. Love that big open kitchen island, the bathroom tiles, and LOVE that shower niche outlined in black. I would copy paste this to my place if I could!

@sophien5416 3 жыл бұрын

I always loves Natalie's designs. I feel like her designs are accessible and she manages to pull off a unique vibe for each client. When she described her client being clean and working in finance, some of the details made so much sense (though I think with that bathroom a lady just may move in soon LOL).
