Originally an unfinished attic in a renovated 1920s social housing complex, designer Michiel Hilbrink of ardor-studio drew inspiration from the building's fir wood beams, load-bearing wall, pitched roof and natural light for the redesign of his family’s home. A bathroom and nursery at the entrance give shape to a corridor that leads to a minimalist and modern open-plan living-dining-kitchen area. A striking matte black kitchen island, flanked by shallow oak-veneered cabinets of the same height, seems to float from the wall. At the back of the apartment, Hilbrink built a small mezzanine bedroom into the 5m high ceiling, designed as one single unit with the stairs and deep custom cupboards, all finished in oak veneer.

A small space with high ceilings is such a game changer. The ability to add that extra room, or intense vertical storage or just the spaciousness it adds to a compact floor plan is truly incredible.

The kitchen layout is really unpracticle for someone who cooks though, having to go around the island to take something in the fridge or go to the sink is not super efficient. Same for the nursery away from the parents, no railway to the stairs, but I guess if it works for them it's cool; the appartement is really beautiful and well designed but it lacks a bit of coziness (for my taste) and storage too. It feels overall like a holiday appartment (but a pretty one).

The space looks nice and clean, if a bit soulless. On one hand, there are a few issues I have with the functionality of the apartment. As many already mentioned, there is little storage space. However, if one truly commits to the minimalist lifestyle, this might not be a problem. Additionally, the kitchen layout with the oven and stove on one side and the sink and fridge on the other is impractical. My biggest concern is the bedroom and loft area. The layout might be fine when the child is a baby or toddler, but once he or she grows to be school age, not having a door on your bedroom will be very uncomfortable for both the parents and the child. On the other hand, I really enjoy what they did with the floating storage unit, it really does make the floor area seem bigger. I also like that they made the ceiling beams a feature instead of hiding them, they add a lot of character to the space. Finally, the wooden floor and accents lend a welcoming warmth to what would otherwise be cold and white feel inside the home.

My partner and I went to view this apartment as it was for sale a few months back still decorated exactly as shown here in the video. I gotta say out of so many apartments we viewed this one was the real catfish of them all. It’s looks nice in photos and videos but when you are in it it is SOO small with no view. It feels like a box. There’s a reason why it didn’t sell at the price it was initially listed for. Also, the stairway to get to it is very social housing esqu. The apartment also sits on a kind of leasehold so when purchasing you have to rent the land from Amsterdam. Nice in pictures and theory but pretty unlivable.

It has the nooks, crannies, a feeling of a secret space, and an exposure of the building’s engineering, that is the magic only an attic can deliver, but with light and openness. I absolutely love it. I’d have to make changes to the kitchen to suit my own needs (there is simply too little storage, and the sink and cooktop on opposite sides makes for a lot more walking about when cooking), but that’s just me, and in any event, could be fixed easily enough.

However, for such a small space I would personally have used those recessed walls by the kitchen und dining area for more storage, a bigger fridge and a more practical layout for the kitchen. Also, I find open showers highly impractal since you get water everywhere and it doesn't trap the steam when you turn off the water to use shampoo and/or soap. Lastly, I personally just don't like a matress on the floor without a bedframe, regardless whether it looks more 'airy'

Thank you NTS for your content, every project adds a piece of space-thoughtfulness into my life! ♥ My modest perspective as a citizen living in a big city. I live in a 60sqm rented appartment and I have 3 bedrooms, 2 are offices and guest rooms and we have our main bedroom. Distribution and usability of the space is key when you are repurposing any space. I don't say their concept is wrong because it fits their needs, but for mine, I prefer more intimate and private rooms rather than more of the 50% of the space opened and used for socializing. (un)fortunately, after covid, many of us are working from home full day or part-time and I consider as a basic need to have more rooms, even if now are offices, art-rooms, etc and in the future are transformed into kids bedroom. Personally, I'd prefer to have my main bedroom closer (same level) to my kids one rather than being so far away from them. And btw, I love the mezzanine, that could have been a perfect office spot!

This space and design is totally my type. I love the minimalist mix with mid century furnishing. I know a group of viewers here that will hate on this saying it’s too minimalistic…to these people, just because it’s not your style doesn’t mean you cannot appreciate the design and beauty. Bravo 👏

This is a gorgeous apartment. I love the floor plan, the wooden beams, high ceilings, a lot of storage. Would just furnish it completely different, too minimalist for me 🫠😃

Really great design. Though 60 m2 is not that small especially with a mezzanine. One thing I would change is to add more storage. As there is only one wardrobe really.

My family home is about that size, my bedroom is the added on mezzanine. As you said and specially given it's in "a big city" like Amsterdam , nobody thinks it's small at all; 3 bedrooms 1 with a walk in closet the other with huge storage space above the built in closet, bathroom and powder room, a laundry room... Honestly can't believe theirs is the same size and looks so small and empty, like a 1 single room apartment for a single guy. To have that big of a bathroom and not be able to take a bath? So pointlessly austere.
