Head to www.nts-store.com/collections... to grab all our publications at one discounted bundle price.
Once a dated living room in his family's ancestral West Sussex home, this 34 sqm apartment was designed and built by Jonathan Stanway of Dousters by subdividing the original home. Stanway's contemporary design features a series of solid, glass, and curtain partitions, transforming the open area into separate zones, providing privacy when needed whilst maximising space and light. A cleverly designed bedroom box with a raised wall to wall storage bed adjoins a minimalist kitchen with a sleek built in breakfast bar. A glass partition separates a spacious and fully equipped home office which easily converts into a guest bedroom by way of a bed that seamlessly folds out of the integrated storage wall. With its careful and considered design, this apartment strikes the perfect balance between functionality and luxury.

This is an adorable flat for a single person, but what I took away from the video is that four generations ago, this entire house was something the average family could afford to build/own, and now, we are expected to cram ourselves into one-quarter of that space and be grateful we can afford it. I'm all for small and functional living spaces, but subdividing an average-sized family home into four teeny-tiny flats feels like a slap in the face.

@kurenable Ай бұрын

yeah i get the small apartments in this channel that are part of built-up old city centers but this is surrounded by acres of buildable space... wild to be expected to cram into a tiny room when the whole countryside is right there

@dinaroatis5484 Ай бұрын

Oh this! It really made me sad to think that nowadays people cannot afford a normal place to live. No matter how smart and ingenious one would make it let us not forget that this used to be one room! It is still one room where everything is crammed! I love the videos in this channel and I understand saving space in crowded cities - like living in the middle of London, Amsterdam, Tokio, New York. But in this case, I don't know. For a student maybe. And somehow I feel that a student couldn't afford it. It is a big slap in the face, just as you said. My grandparents had a saying about these places that keeps rolling in my head everytime I'm seeing these 1 room listings when I'm searching for rent: "You sleep, you eat and you sh*t in one place, like a pig." Clearly the older generations had a different view on what livable space means...

This place starts off absolutely beautiful, then absolutely falls apart for basic functionality: You can't access your clothes without climbing on over your bed. Glass doors seal off a tight office /sleeping space with no windows/ventilation -- you will suffocate or get extremely stuffy very fast. A fully mirrored wall faces your toilet 2 feet away, so you can stare into your own eyes while you're doing your business.

My only real issue is the storage above the bed, it's okay but it could be moved to a better location if it's used for frequently used clothes. Otherwise the office space is fine, the glass is working with the reality that there's no windows there. That's compromise. Mirror pooping is fun.

Many of us noticed that some cabinet doors and fridge door opened the wrong way. Maybe it is the only way to get the racks out? I too am missing a proper table, it need not be big, maybe something with wheels one could push to the side, or a fold up one attached to a wall...IDK, I like this, but have seen better solutions.

I often wonder, why kitchen cabinets, fridges etc. open up the wrong way. All should open so they can be accessed from where you are mostly standing, while working in the kitchen, because if not, one has to move around the doors of cabinets or fridges in order to access its contents. Very unpractical! A professional should know that. All appliances are available opening either to the right or to the left. Cabinet doors can be mounted with the hinges on the right or left side.

I personally don't agree with that. A half sized fridge can fit plenty of food for a single house hold, and if you like to store food for weeks, you could totally add a second small fridge/freezer in this aparment. And yeah, the bed is not very convinient, but its a small sacrifice if you want a king sized bed in a small space. Picking out clothes and making your bed is just a 15 minute thing you do in the morning, so the architect probably considered that it was worth sacrificing to improve the feel of everything else.

Very limited storage for a mid to long term rental. A bar counter fridge isn't spacious neither are the wardrobe / closet spaces. How do you change the bedding on the king size bed? I'd rather a double bed with space around the sides. The fold out single bed is a clever idea. I wonder how much the rent is? I would surmise it would'nt be 'bang for your buck', from the tenants' viewpoint, considering it is in a well-to-do county loation.

Really sorry to say so, even if I'm the only one, but I really don't like this one and do not even look at it as a place to live in, except for the garden view... Feels either like a sad unpersonal and not very convenient B&B suitable just for a couple of nights, either I see it a " style space example" in some Ikea store. Those kitchen doors opening the wrong way because you did not read the mounting instructions or because you won't use them so you didn't care to think it over...that glass door of any 60's administrative office you'd hate to work in, but at home : what a great feeling ! ...... that "table" or counter so narrow you could never put an italian plate for pasta on it and where you can eat only being perched on those uncomfortable stools or standing.... I don't feel the space, I only see a big void on one side and cluster on the other. Anyway even young, I didn't want to crawl to go to bed even occasionnaly, so every night... Again, except for the view, everything feels sad, blank and uncomfortable to me, really sorry. 🥺

Beautiful, soothing, restful space making fantastic use of the bay window and its outlook. Well done.

Compact but comfortable, I like how it's overcast and rainy outside but inside it's bright and airy feeling, just wish the fireplace didn't have to disappear.

I'd love to live here! Storage is well done, but certainly made for a more minimalistic person! But its beautiful, I defo need more closed storage options myself. I love this look.

I’m surprised this was granted planning permission

Because it’s a small residential area and they’re putting in 4 apartments in a small building. So that means more stress on the infrastructure, there will be more parked cars on the road as there doesn’t look like there’s a big public transport area. I live in the neighbouring county and I think there would be loads of objections. I’m not against the design. Just typically I’m not sure how it met the requirements.

The overall design is lovely, bright and well-thought out for a small space. it packs a lot into 34sqm! bathroom feels large. Trade-offs are choices. In my case, I think I would choose to trade the perception of larger living room floor area for more storage. flip the bed and extend the kitchen wall for more accessible storage, with a full length wall mirror echoing the bathroom door to bounce light. sliding shoji-style doors could still close the bed off as wanted and it could have living room facing joinery below to max storage.

I often lay in bed imagining how I could make my room into a self contained unit! As it is now I have loads of free space, which I do value, but sometimes I think it would be so freeing to have less space to upkeep.

I love this apartment, I can't believe it's only 34 square meters!! We have a tiny apartment with huge windows and the light always makes a space feel larger!! Just one criticism the fridge and cupboard doors should open the other way!! Love the use of glass for the office wall!

i love the curtains look and the ammount of natural light makes such a beautiful look although the lack of colour makes it feel so sterile and like an hospital room which just isnt for me. love the space of the bed and office opposite each other to make it as far from each other to sperate work and relaxing.
