Small space renovations truly create the most challenging and rewarding design dilemmas because a finite space by nature demands ingenuity. We cannot move walls or hallways, or combine apartments to solve spatial problems- yet we still must achieve our clients’ vision and design goals for the space. This studio is a great example of a small space success story! The result of modern influence on a prewar setting actualized the owners’ desire for warmth, flow, and the illusion of spaciousness. The project entailed tremendous time constraints, but in less than two weeks we were able to achieve the perfect combination of design, color, texture, material, space, and functionality. The result was an integrated, open space with design details that ensured that the apartment feels much larger than it actually is. Seeing how this “new” space moved the owners, Henry and Hilary, was the ultimate compliment - they loved their new home and were amazed at how it had been transformed!

Revisiting this! That dishwasher! That Murphy bed! That kitchen!
Another masterpiece in minature from the elegant Paula!
It's like 4 in the morning and I should be sleeping but I can't stop watching these videos! Every home looks so beautiful afterward!
I know what you mean. When I found these videos, I couldn't stop watching them. Love the way the places are done over, such clean lines and totally new.
The Netflix envelope! A blast from the past!
Almost 10-years-old, and you can't tell because the elements are modern and timeless. In a word, Brilliant!!!
Im very impressed with the sink unit having an integrated dishwasher under the drainer , what a neat idea.
Absolutely beautiful and amazing use of such a small space! Wow! 😍
Thanks so much! 😊
You are wonderful! You are just as gracious with a tiny apartment couple as with the penthouse couple. Very nice to see.
Awhhh ! Thank you!
People can talk themselves into anything
Super sweet people. Time to Konmari. lol Love the dishwasher sink unit.
They got a great deal, a Manhattan Pied-à-Terre with renovation for around $300k - worth every penny. As a Manhattanite myself, the small size does not bother me at all, it has everything they need and that is what counts - every extra square foot costs you. Plus, great use of the high ceilings. Very impressive.
James totally agree. Paula was way ahead of the tiny houses living trend
Beautiful design of a NYC tiny home!
Go Paula... It's awesome. And inspiring.
After watching this there is still hope for me.What a great layout considering the tiny space you had to work with.Great job Paula!
Great use of space.
Wow Paula, I love this flash back. It’s a fantastic example of smart design. I think you were way ahead of the ‘tiny home’ movement. And what an amazingly cool couple to work with.
nice job...although it is small it looks very comfortable and has everything you need with a full size kitchen and a "small" yet complete bathroom
Thanks!
Paula, I wish I were moving to NYC! If I did, you would be the first call I would make to get started on creating my new space!! Love this! BTW I moved from a 3,200 sq ft home into an apartment sized 200 sq ft! Tiny living rules!!! So easy to take care of and so liberating to be done with all the things I just 'simply had to have'! Now it's just me, a bed, my easel and paintings!!!😀👏
I enjoy so much how the foggy kitchen cabinet doors keep the space bright and open. Really nicely done space. Your belt personifies a girl's need for bling.
Absolutely brilliant design!!!! Love it!!!!!
OMG, these colors are amazing...bravo!
Thanks so much for showing a smaller space and letting us know the price point. Great job!
I've seen their home before on another video... now it makes sense that it was so fabulous 💋
Adorable! Wait! Was Paula a rocker back in the day? That’s why she’s so chill in the more recent super high end renovations! Love the shower.
I think I’ve been subscribed for close to a year. I am a high school student looking into going to school for architecture and I find it fascinating the amount of details you pack into spaces. Also, I love how you stay true to the architectural details of the period of the homes. Anyways, I love looking back at your old videos. They show how much design both evolves and stays true to its dogmas. You are such an inspiration!
Hey Matthew! Well, thank you so much! It means the world to me.. to have an impact on someone at your point in life! I only wish I had discovered this so much earlier in life.. I truly love what I do.. and have a very "outside of the box" practice because I combine architecture, construction and design in one service. Not easy ever.. and in Manhattan.. probably the most difficult.. but worth it! Follow your passion.. it will serve you well in life.

Matthew Luck agree. Clever design, smart design is timeless.
Fabulous apartment. Love small space remodels.
Great job and use of space - sweet couple and adorable puppies!
It’s better than a hotel room every night and they’re building equity. What’s not to like?
soooo small! wow
Amazing transformations Paula! I'm hooked! Hope you can give me suggestions for my small New Mexico custom Town Home. ❤️
If I close my eyes you sound like Eileen Davidson from Young and the Restless! Amazing space, I love small homes & this was incredibly executed - gave me some awesome concepts for my small loft apartment here in Australia
G Rodriguez same here in New Zealand.
OHHHHH! AMAZING!!!!!! I could totally live there!!!! WOW!! LOVE MURPHY BEDS - MY FAVE!!!!! Great job! And yes, wow, what y'all did with that tiny home space. How much is it worth now about $3M LOL! Probably.
Qypsy Q Traveler aka Pamela Prizant-Brooks imagine the rental income this young couple make off it
Great, Space and Amazing job on the renovation.👍🏾😎
Perfect space for when they want to get away from their home in NJ and spend a weekend in the city.
The electrical outlet should have been moved over so it's not in the way of the Murphy bed when it's down
I love this place. I'm from TX and would love to here.
Gorgeous.
Gorgeous...but kill the background music!!!
Whoa! $300,000 for a small closet basically. Most American bathrooms are much bigger than this entire apartment. I guess it’s priced per inch not foot. Hahaha
Wow, I guess if you're going to live small this is the way to do it. Very nice; very functional & liveable- I'd prefer it to be a little cozier ( fluffier & more femme), but it's all a matter of personal taste & what suits the owner .
“Cramped to the hilt with their lifestyle...” #understatement
LOL!
Paula McDonald / Glad you were laughing along with me... With that said, as an artist (and sometimes freelance interior designer), I really love hearing your thought process for the design decisions. I also really appreciate that you have a wide-range of client types (& likely: budgets).
I just found your channel and have watched a number of these narrated walk-throughs. I think having variety in the types of spaces being desiged and an array of personalities (and therefore solutions) one is designing for helps keep one's work fresh and pushes the designer to constantly think outside the box.
I'm currently designing a very small basement master bedroom for a client with two children & one on the way. Their TINY bedroom must accommodate baby. 😳 Every challenge is an opportunity! (Right?!?! 😉)
Really great work here, Paula. Truly. In the end: we are designing for the client...and what they do with our design is their call, not ours. That's the reality! Almost anyone can show off a newly finished design project that is perfectly styled and camera-ready. What's more interesting (to me) is how people live in the space once the camera crew and designers leave. What's most important (in my view) is how effectively our designs have been executed & the real-life impact that results have on our clients.
Thanks so much for sharing the results of all your efforts...and thanks for acknowledging my comment!
Looking forward to more videos in the future. Onward to 2019! 😎
Stream of consciousness afterthought:
--> Would you ever consider a collaboration with another designer? Or what about having two different designers create a "look" for the same client? The room or situation/client could be theoretical and viewers could vote on which design they like best. Would love to collab or even shadow you during the process of a complete design: beginning to end.

Lol and a window unit!
My dog is named Pebbles too.
Hanson, absolutely
OM to the double GG! Paula, this is an incredible use of space. Do you remember how many sq ft in this apartment? WoW!!
I’m about to move into a smaller space so this is so inspiring 💕
Big stove and microwave are not necessary in tiny space. 1 induction burner is enough.
Thank you! What is up with these people living in tiny spaces, still thinking they need a four burner range with a big ass fridge and oven? A two-burner hob with an undercounted drawer fridge/freezer should be enough.
richiesd1 it depends on what and how you cook, how often you bake.
NicholsKT not if you cook creative gourmet or exotic foods.
She said, “And Brad, you’re really the engineer of tiny” ! 😂
Haha! Yes, sometimes!!
Still think you’re great , best wishes from Montreal
Anyone happen to know what the wall paint color is? I'm absolutely in love with it!!
Watching her helps me understand Trump. New York realtors seem to excell in superlatives.
She's not a realtor, she's more like a contractor or interior designer... You go to her to make structural changes and design from plumbing, electrical and construction... She's the best...
@@ClaudyArfaras "she's the best" See, there you go!
@@claudermiller
Not sure what country you are from but here in the USA we speak English and in a conversational manner... Do you think there are no "best" at any particular occupation or endeavor? Look up the word, I stand by my use of it...
@@ClaudyArfaras of course there are"best" things. I'm just saying every other word out of her mouth is a superlative which wouldn't be too bad except it's all referring to her choices. I'm just supposing humility isn't part of the job description. I live in rural Ohio since you asked and I can assure you that really wouldn't go over very well around here. Just my opinion.
Nice
So mismatched ! Clutters ! No continuity, kind of mis mash ! But for NYC I imagine it’s
EXACTLY
This was almost ten years ago so the aesthetic of living ( especially with the boom of tiny homes in recent years) has drastically changed
Treasure McGarity agree, Paula was way ahead of the trends in tiny homes and sustainable living
Sure seems like there is room for a couch that same size to be pushed toward the front so as not to have to tear things down twice a day. But it’s very pretty.
Agreed. I didn't find the sofa very inspiring. So bland and ugly.
I couldn't live there. Just my books alone will fit there.
They have murphy beds that folds out onto the couch without removing anything off the couch. They should have used one of those.
Itir tansi did they have those a decade ago?
I understand it's a small place, but these people have a lot of crap. I can imagine what their NJ home looks like.
SuchADumbUsername lol I hear ya. But look at their active lifestyle. This is tiny homes and good design way before it crosses over into Pop culture.
dang add large painting on the bed side, its dead void of design
The loud music ruins video.
Very workable!
And the price!
Renovation @ $3000!!!.
Club Meg lol i think its $3,000
Agent
Oops, your right $3000.00 (typo).
I think the owner said "three" as in the apartment and reno in total cost just around $300,000 lol
Interesting dishwasher solution! Please share brand name if you have it.
300 thousand reno price???
No. 300 thousand for purchase plus renos....
Amazed by your videos. I’m a remodeler upstate, NYC is a different world. You look tired, getting enough sleep?
Haha!! Yep..sometimes just stress !! thanks!
non descript
Don’t get it, if these people have enough $ to engage you Paula, why would they purchase a shoebox, bet you costed more than the place
300.ooo$ for that?, A Murphy bed beside the fridge?, You’re joking right?
Hahaha.. you clearly don't live in NYC.. yes, and that was almost 10 years ago!
220 square feet? Get out of my living room, I mean get out of my bedroom, I mean get out of my kitchen. Square root of 220 is 14.8 x 14.8. Yee gadz! It is a jail cell, not an apartment.
I got to have 3500 to 18000 Square feet 😊😊😊
Although I can appreciate the added 8ft. storage entry closet and the redesigned bathroom this home doesn't click with me. The wall colors through me off, there is a space for an interesting gallery wall or large statement painting or picture to the right of the sofa bed yet that wall is left blank which throws off the balance of the whole living area due to the kitchen/dining area being stuffed to the gills, top and bottom.
Sorry, but overall it is just a meh for me. I feel like they needed to at least have a consult with an interior designer as well as an architect.
Where do they keep their close?
It looks like my tiny studio in SF, not impressive. It doesn't seem like the owners love it. lol
no deco
This is awful. Poor quality work. That’s a real high end clip on light....
This place is WAY WAY to small! I can't believe they even live there! let alone spend money to have it renovated!
They have a house in nj. This is a good investment
It's very well design but just abit plain color. I like white color & I know white is the best for small space but you still can do better than this with some color.
Another point, the apartment have tall roof. If this is my house, I would make loft bed. The under loft is sofa & upper is loft bed
(I don't speak English well, also I'm not designer. It's just my opinion)
Doesn't look like high-end finishes to me. Cabinets look like they came from IKEA. Nothing elegant about this small space.
Ron Douglas it’s was high end nine years ago, when the video was filmed
Ron Douglas you can't see finishes in a video, you are a negative person and probably a racist
Damn, racist? lol you takin this 0-100 really quick, I kinda like it though!
Lincoln Paul Welcome to the new America where everyone who disagrees with us is a racist.
Ron Douglas 97
thats not a flat for 2 people and dogs ?!!! terrible for living....
What a mess.
couple very boring. consider giving them talking points before the video.
