I pretty much had this very exact setup last year when I rented out a room. The crappy sterilite 'dresser' and storage bin included haha. And mattress on the floor is fine. Don't let anyone guilt trip you otherwise!

“Everything you've ever wanted is sitting on the other side of fear.” Sharing some positivity with all of you. Keep smiling you are amazing.

Minimalism is not about “having less stuff”. It's about “having only stuff which we love and use often”.

I’ve had my mattress on the floor for 2 years now and I like it a lot. I too have been called dirty for having it like that but I don’t care, it works for me. Your room looks so calming. I’ve just started my minimalist journey and I’m in the process of decluttering. I want and need my room to look as calming as yours does.

You room looks peaceful. Thx for sharing.

You should do a house/apartment tour.

I find that as I reduce things I fill the space with more living type things. For me this is using woods instead of plastics, replacing decor with plants, and incorporating more greens than any other color (more blacks and grays in clothes).

The different types of wood mixed with grey and all the light, make the room appeal very cozy. Your bedroom tour motivates me to declutter even more. Simple, peaceful and homey.

Looks comfy, modern, functional and beautiful! Great apartment tour :)

Inspirational. Moving into a new place in a few days and having as little things as possible. Only things I use, that's it.

Your room looks great and clean. Love it! Everything is serving a purpose and some of them are serving multiple purposes. That is a very smart approach as to how you own and care for your things. Years from now you’ll be very pleased about being intentional and wise with how you use things and the money spent on them. Bravo! Discovered your channel today and I’ve sincerely enjoyed the 5 videos I have seen so far. Thank you for sharing.

This is awe inspiring. Absolutely beautiful and simple. Really stress and clutter free truly makes your mind free. Good on you mate. Hopefully I can find the courage to do this.

Very tidy and clean room. Yes, becoming a miniinalist is certainly some thing I would like to do as it looks so light and stress free.

With the mattress if you can put sort of wooden slats underneath it'll prevent mould and has other benefits

I love your room, it’s free and peaceful. Subscribed already ❤️

I laughed so much at your colourful wardrobe :) Thank you tons for taking us on this personal journey. I love everything about your room, including the mattress and the plastic drawers! Why buy something else when that particular thing does exactly what it's supposed to? It must be very calm and nice to rest/work there! Thank you again! It means a lot to find people who think alike.

Love this video. I realize I’ve watched it before. It really captures the “vibe” of what minimalism feels like to me when I’m in the thick of it. You really capture the simplicity and the peace of how it feels. Thanks!

Workable and indeed practical life style. I'm have same room plan,mattress at floor is great healthy way and easy to clean and change sheet covers. Great one.

Love this video! Don’t let people get you down..so many people will hv negative comments about the things we do to better ourselves and our livelihood. Your room looks awesome! You just got a new subscriber! ❤️

Wow your room is so calming and pleasing. I like it so much!

I ❤ your room, especially your movable working desk and the "flying" screen 😍 Thank you for inspiration ⚘

i love all your youtube videos 💕 i started changing some of my habits / life style, im inspired😊

Great vid, love your jar with spare change in its good idear might just do this to, ,

Smh someone called you crusty🙈😹😹😹 Man, people are crazy and savage Lol You are not crusty. Youre super clean actually! 🤍

Your room is simple, cozy and very functional. I like it ^_^

yessssssssssssss. i loved when i had a macbook and a pc and they were on opposite sides of my room and i was travelling between them and made me feel like i'm at an office job :)))

Me encantó la gama de colores y la filosofía de tener solo lo necesario. Mucha tranquilidad y fácil limpieza y acomodo.

I believe that someday soon this channel will blow up. Loving your content by the way. 😊❤

Hey Nicholas! Another fellow Nicholas here. I really enjoy the style and pace of your videos. I look forward to see more of your content in the coming weeks!

Nicholas, I love your evolution! Your room looks cozy imo! The mattress on the floor looks great and the sentimental piece from your aunt and uncle is a nice touch too!

Going to college soon. Will definitely take inspiration from your room. Very good video. Thanks.

So less stress. Great.

lamp is cool amber light , love the sleeping arangement

Lovely calm space love it

Your room is very nice and it has everything you need in it. I love your layout and everything is intentional. To those calling you, "gross" or 'crusty", forgettabout 'em! Your room is lovely, and this is coming from a femme ;).

it's beautiful & peaceful ❤🌼

I also only have a mattress, and same reason I was looking to get a Japanese floor bed. I ended up really liking only the mattress so I'm sticking to it. I do feel like it's important to clean the floor every day or at least every other day, and I don't wear shoes in my apartment so it's pretty easy to keep it clean.

Finally room tour ❤️

I like the colour scheme of your stuff. Very relaxing.

My bed is on the floor too, I like it like that and my wardrobe is all dark colors too. Lovin your room.

Wow I luv it! Although I use a couple of dressers in my bedroom anything in each drawer is used. Bedroom is huge so not having the dressers wouldn't work for me. But having less tables, dressers etc. one wouldn't feel the need to have table top items (dust collectors). The most I have on my home office desk and side table is family pictures. I continue to be more inspired with your videos that I'm on the right track and I'm not alone in living as a minimalist life.

Hi Nicholas, if I may suggest an idea, you can hang your mirror inside the closet if the space permits. That way it can still serve its purpose without being an additional item in your bedroom. If this doesn't workout, then you get to try something else.

Great content! its time to Minimalist my room too.

The room looks perfect.

Good content! I just found your videos and I do like 👍 the pace, the way you express your thoughts and minimalism ideas! Also, My family 👪 does not own a full bedroom set, but my husband and I use plastic dressers like you for years and we are planning on not having a bed frame after our kids leave the nest, too! The less the better!!...🥰👍

Love that lamp!

Lol I recently just replaced my 9 year old plastic drawer for my closet. It definitely gets the job done!

I adore the mattress on the floor, I don't do it because where I live there are insects, they scare me a little but I love the arrangement of everything ❤️

I love this guy❤

Nice video. I’m a beginner minimalist. Been getting better at it everyday. My room is pretty close to yours

My cat and I prefer bed on the tile floor directly. Easy for her, easy for me to "make the bed" in the AM.

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with floor sleeping. :) As a rather new minimalist myself I personally enjoy low platform beds and Japandi/wabi sabi style. It keeps you well grounded. If I may give some advice, a tatami mat will help with airflow and reduce the risk of mold and help to lower dust mites. :) I’m happy to be newly subscribed.

Hi from IL! I am so happy I found your channel. ABSOLUTELY love your videos. Subscribed right away!

Awesome!

As always beautiful and inspirational video 😌

When you cleaned the window frame I felt that disgust lol I always foeget to clean that area 😂

You came up in my recommendeds! Yay!

Its so sad that people hating on him just because he likes what he likes.All the best to you man!

Ghost tub piggy bank for the win! I currently have two of the same tubs full of coins that I really need to take to the bank.

Great video. Can only imagine you clean the entire room in like 3 minutes :D, easy to keep clean and tidy

I sleep on the floor all the time. 😂

I love this

Así viví un pequeño tiempo, una de mis mejores experiencias

Loved this vid & how intentional u are with the things you own!

Great room tour! 🙌🏼

Very honest room tour. Loved it 👍😊

simply awesome and highly motivating 🤗

I admire ppl that can do this Bc I personally can’t sleep on the floor.

Thank you for this great video! Subscribed

I really like my Japanese bed. I advise to invest in a good quality one. For the mat and bed I paid $500 for a full size. My back did hurt the first three weeks now my back feels amazing apparently the bed re alines the spine. Oddly I don't use my pillow now it feels better without a pillow.

I just like listening to your voice,is very calming..

I love your room

I also tried going to route of a shikibuton (Japanese bed). While I really liked the idea and it worked well for me, I found out eventually it is quite difficult in humid climates. I'm in Seattle. It's imperative to have tatami mat underneath, and it requires constant flipping and drying. Hanging in the sun is essential, and if you don't have a space to do that, don't bother with a shikibuton. I ended up having to throw mine out because it molded.

Oh my, Nicholas! I think that I need learning English. Cause I need understand your videos!

Once i got married I've had the mattress on the floor, it's much better when cleaning and for moves having bed rails and bed frame, i also have to set of plastic drawers 1 for documents and misc the other one is for my son's clothes.

I like ur lifestyle amazing room 🥰🥰 i got some ideas for makeover main Gd luck in ur content big respect from Algeria 🇩🇿

Hello, I'm from Thailand. I like your room very much. It's simple and peaceful. I always pack my unnecessary things. that is not always used What is messed up makes me nervous. what is not official I'll set it up The size of one dish is in the tub. If not cleaned I won't sleep until people around me think I'm psychotic. I always like to keep my house clean, it makes me feel comfortable. I'm glad to see your video. It doesn't make me feel weird. Hope your channel will grow

Nice 👍🏻 I loved this video, I'm a minimalist myself too, relaxing video 😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌

Very nice!👏👏👏 looks practical, functional and the shades are soothing to the eye. I would put the mirror up on a wall or door. Mirrors bring light and the illusion of greater space (along with the obvious function.) But keep doing your thing, your way! 💙🌈💙

I loved this room tour! That bed looks comfy af to be honest! Not bad...

Looks so minimal.

love it

You would save a lot space with a cheap light bar monitor and a mini itx case +cpu holder. ( if someday you need to change your computer keep that in mind ) Nice organisation , i wish American movie horror closets like this exited where i live , they seem very practical.

Hi Nicholas, I really enjoyed this video and found it very interesting. Your intentional minimalist approach to deciding what to own is inspiring to me. I am a long way from having only what I use regularly and love, but your video has motivated me to keep moving in that direction. What are you studying?

Nick, you inspire me. You are real role model of self discipline.

I need to try out my mattress on the floor because I have a habit of putting stuff under it and losing it. Thank you for the room tour.

Me gusto mucho el video amigo le deseo mucha suerte y que tenga buena vida...saludos desde mexico,👍🏼.

Beautiful

I liked the video, congratulations.

Having less 'stuff' certainly helps improve air flow and energy flow. Having less things to clean and think about also makes life much simpler. But in truth, it is only our attachment to stuff that causes us anxiety and worry. You could live in the most extravagantly furnished palace, full of priceless art and antiquities, and be completely at peace - by not caring at all if any or all or it was destroyed or stolen. You can enjoy beauty without needing to possess it

Looks good to me ❤

I like your room. I want to have a room like that someday. Hehe

Dude your room is awesome!

like your style

Thank you 😌

5:25 "clearly I have a very colourful wardrobe." 😂

Great filming, love the setup. subed.

Nice video!

Very nice :)

I also like to have mattress on the floor. Just because I like to sleep as low as possible to the floor.
