You have such a great eye for design, materials, and layouts! Your home looks like an actual home rather than a sterile environment. The colour schemes throughout work so well. It's evident you have put in so much thought and effort into your home, and it shows by how proud you are taking us through each room. You should be proud! Would love to see the studio/desk setup tour for sure!
Joanne I ain’t see you in a while
I love how everything is so cohesive, like really well designed and put together, but also a living place. It really looks like an amazing and comfortable home! And what a great video as well :)
Thank you so much!
This video was hard to look away from. Your flat really encapsulates your personality, but also your history. The German spice labels, pictures of friends that you took over the years, the lord of the rings sign on the door, it feels like a space owned by someone who lives a full life. Someone who cares about their own comfort and nurtures their home to reflect their best self, very well done.
Beautifully decorated. My favourite parts are the RuneScape plushies in the living room
I was tempted to do an earth tune and a law rune as well so I could do the teleport home spell but settled for the 3 major elements 😎
@@evan Fire and Nature for infinite money??? Are you even thinking this through
Hey Rich! Wasn't expecting to see you here
@@evan how big it is? how many m2 ?
@@evan how much is monthly rent if you don't mind me asking
You can see how much thought and detail went into this. It just looks extremely cozy and personalized without being cluttered. Also the motion sensor for the bed lights is really cool. Nice job!
Glad you like it!
I love how you've engineered your flat with yourself in mind but also your friends. I also love how you're not scared of colour, it really annoys me that a lot of designers etc see colour as this interruptive thing, or cluttering colour, or not as clean as neutrals. Your flat has SO much life and personality and seeing the journey to getting this flat, and voting in all the polls on your stories for design choices, it was so exciting to finally see this whole tour 🤩
I love how Evan like to decorate his apartment / flat because most guys don't care what their apartment / flat looks like. It shows that Evan likes to have his place feel cosy and inviting.
I feel like this is nicer how most girls decorate their flat, the wall panelings and smart home features and very impressive!
@@aurora6920 most people (mostly girls) like to go off what ever is trending and that's why you see many minimalist interior with splash of colour because that's style what's trending atm. Too me that minimalist style is boring and feels like your inside a gallery museum. A house need character, like who cares about trends, just do what ever makes you happy.
@@MERCHIODOS I agree, the only people i know who have not had lots of colour tend to be people who are living in their house temporary e.g. renting or waiting until mortage contract ends. But also they have styles that don't involve colour, I guess as long you show your personality that's what matters. But then there are a lot of people with less money to spend on decor too. Either way i'm really impressed and inspired by this video :)
Honestly, this is so pro Evan!! Absolutely love the cohesion and how you've made it not only your own, but made your home work for you!! I'm inspired, I wanna do the living room wall when I get my own place. But I'm bad at math :) Love it, so glad you made this video, been dying to see it!
Its amazing to see how you've integrated all your tech into a very organic, natural way. subtle ways just to improve your life without being in your face. I love it
This is honestly such a gorgeous place, the decoration you've done and the colours and just the sheer thought you've put into it has absolutely paid off. This is such a beautiful space!
Thank you so much!
Hey Evan! I am very excited to see all the love and work you have put into making this place your home. These kind of videos make me feel really warm inside.
EVEN!?
@@evan I'm so sorry. Autocorrect failed me 😢
😜
@@evan how big it is? how many m2 ?
we need a bathroom tech video of how you did the lights and diffuser!
You, man, have not only talent but passion. I bet everyone here feels as proud and happy for you as me!
Evan. This. Space. Is everything. I’m so impressed with your designer eye and you should be so proud of everything you’ve done here! Every little intricate detail has been thought about and planned, it’s so commendable!!! If you werent doing UA-cam, the interior designers would snatch you up in a heartbeat ☺️ and you’re soooo right, it’s such an embodiment of you, from the plethora of plants, beautifully designed office, uke’s on the wall (and that damn bird on top of the living room cabinet (I can’t escape him)). Absolutely stunning 🤩 oh and your lighting game is off the charts
this video was randomly reccommended to me on youtube. it's wonderful to see someone so enthused and thorough when talking about the place they live. wholesome!!!
:)
@@evan how big it is? how many m2 ?
@@margplsr3120 A common question from people outside Britain and Americans want to know square feet, reality is hardly any tenants/owners know the m2, or bothered, property in Britain in marketed by number of bedrooms/rated schools/parking and in London the transport zones. Floor areas get discovered when the cost of new floor covering is provided.
I've really enjoyed watching your apartment come together! I would love to see a video on how you programmed all the automations you have set up with your lights and curtains and such.
The thoughtfulness you've put into your home is incredible. Purpose. Detail. Surprised that make people go, "WHOA! COOL!
Fantastic flat, you've done a brilliant job with it, you should be very proud of yourself after all the trauma of actually buying it. Love all the "smart" lighting features you've individualised.
I feel like I've waited so long for this !!! I loved watching the place develop over on the 2nd channel. Also big fan of the plants and mirrors. The plants just make the place feel so alive. The mirrors just open up the space so much. Good job Evan !!!
A lovely combo of modernity but also such a lived in vibe. You can tell it’s yours with all of your tasteful items that remind you of your interests. I’m sure it’s lovely having your own prints around the flat, and it’s great to see them in real spaces, looking professional but with a personal touch. I’m sure you’re very proud, and rightfully so! Would love a desk tour, and something edc related too, perhaps !!! Excellent job, Evan!
Your flat is so beautiful! Its clear that you paid attention to every detail to make it very personal and homely. The fact that you did so many things yourself also shows just how talented and creative you are. I especially like the fact that you used so many of your own photos/prints (which are absolutely incredible) in order to make the place feel unique and a reflection of you. You should feel very proud of yourself for what you have achieved!☺️ Also, I just wanted to mention that the way this video was filmed/edited was amazing as always!
The colours everywhere are so satisfying. I'm obsessed with that light green on the bedroom wall!
Evan! This video was so worth the wait. You can feel the love that went into designing your space, and clearly recognize that it was extended to the video sharing it with us. Your space is gorgeous but not stuffy. So many visual details. So much love.
I’m so happy for you. Thank you for sharing your space with us!🤍
I love apartment/house tours and this is like one of the best aesthetically *and* functionally!
I love it! Snorlax coloured living room and, of course, excellent lighting ✨️
Such a wonderful and organised living space. I've shared this with my 25-year-old son who came back home to live with us during Covid and has inspired us to reorganise and modernise our home. He's already reorganised his personal space and has now focused on our living room and kitchen areas.
I enjoy your videos and how much time and research you invest in each one if them.
BTW congrats on lasting for 10 years 🎉 hands 🙌
I LOVE your apartment. You did an amazing job pulling it together.
Omg you have always worked so hard and always had roommates and shared flates. So happy to see how you've evolved and grown over the years! Cheers!
I can tell how much you've put into making the space your home and it's nice to see how proud you are of that, as you should be. Love it. :)
I love how thoughtful and considered you are about all this. Your hard work and care has really paid off.
Wow Evan, your home is stunning. I love the colour choices and the funky lighting.
The love you put in every single project is amazing! Im not a regular follower, I come to visit your channel every now and then, maybe once or twice a year. But im always astonished at the amount of effort and appreciation to detail on every single thing you do❤️
I'm so happy for you! I hope you're really proud of what you created in this warm, happy, creative home.
What a beautiful video!! You can actually feel the love you have for the apartment and creating videos. I love your apartment and the cohesion :) great job and thank you for showing it to us in such a wonderful way!
I wish I could plan out an apartment as well as you do. You have so much beautiful stuff yet it doesn't look cluttered. Amazing!
The effort that went into all of the different spaces is something I hope to match for a space of my own one day
You need to do a video on your automations... its so much more complex than i would have though with automatic lights on and different temps for times of day
The amount of time and effort you made to learn about interior design has definitely paid off! PHENOMENAL!
I've always felt that most homes that I've seen on UA-cam weren't quite right. In most cases, there's something that I don't like or would do differently. However, your place is flat out perfect! You've put so much thought into it to make it interesting from the color schemes to the wall "panels" that I find it very appealing. And waiting a year before making this video was a great move, because it looks like a home where someone lives as apposed to a "show" home that's been staged.
Congrats on a great design and implementation.
Looking forward to your next vid.
Mark
Absolutely worth the wait! A beautiful video for a beautiful home, you can really feel the love that went into every room and every frame of the video alike!
Having watched you move around so much over recent years it's so lovely to see you happily in a space that you have made into a gorgeous easthetic relaxing space. And what a location, looks like Canary Wharf or nearby. Best wishes for 2023!
that looks more on the 02 arena
North Greenwich.
I would say this is basically near Canning Town or Pontoon Dock based on the fact the DLR alongside it
It’s leamouth
@@PIXELGamerzXvlogs wrong side of the river for North Greenwich.
Your tour makes me want to take even better care of myself. Would love to see the desk tour.
completely obsessed with the automated diffuser and lighting - things like that really add the finishing touch! Also ADORE the wall behind your TV, adds such an interesting dimension to the room!!!
Beautiful! You’ve picked some wonderful classic items that won’t go out of fashion, and have put together a flat that looks both comfortable and really stylish.
i am so impressed by all the practical sides of this gorgeous home, the automated lighting and blinds are so incredibly well thought out, and i love how well you've made everything work for you !!
Evan your flat is absolutely wonderful! It’s clear how hard you’ve worked this last year and how proud you are of it too. Well done chap.
I’ve loved watching your flat come together. I’ve struggled to finish painting my sitting room. It’s taken me 3 years so far 🙈 Love how much thought you put into it and how much of your character is in those rooms. So much effort taken and with a great outcome.
Evan this is such an amazing place and video. This has been so highly anticipated and such a long time coming, I remember watching your videoseries about trying to get this apartment and you've come such a long way. Your place is absolutely beautiful and thought out.
Love the flat and the tour! If you do a follow-up, I would be curious to learn more in detail how you realised all the smart-Home automations you mentioned.
The flat tour, and the flat, is beautiful. Very you, beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. I have lived in my house for a year now and I am loving making it my own. You can see all the effort and love you have put into every element of your home. Congratulations on a wonderful video and lovely home.
Man, even though I've been watching the process on the other channel, I'm still amazed by looking at the "final" result. It truly is a wonderful space you´ve built and you should be proud. Also the editing and the lighting in this video top tier as always. Sign me up for the desk tour and I would love for you to make a work out video since it is something I want to get into but I'm not sure on how to start and find motivation.
literally my dream apartment, how beautiful!
I'm so happy for you that you got your flat! I knew someone who was working in London who faced so much just trying that he gave up and found a job outside London so he could get a place at last. Glad you got through it all and I hope you love it there. Great job on the decor!
Your flat is beautiful. I'm so impressed with the way you added texture and interest to the plain walls What a clever idea.
spectacular! it was a long wait to finally get this video, but well worth it. great job! would love an additional extended version where you geek out about all the stuff you've painstakingly picked out.
Haha the rough cut was 46 minutes long but I cut it in HALF so I’m not talking as much about each item
Beautiful I like how you played with colours yet not overwhelming. Wow I like them lights with sensors so cool...
I absolutely love what you've done with this flat, it's beautiful and you've really managed to distinguish all the different areas and rooms with different but similar vibes. It looks so homey and comfy! Congrats!
This looks so nice. I don't even normally like modern style but this looks so warm and colourful and friendly! It's nice to see this much effort put in to a living space. Like if my husband didn't live with me he would absolutely be the "men really be living like this" guy with just one black chair and a Playstation lol
Thanks for showing us around. It's truly inspiring to track your journey into interior design. Beautifully done.
Absolutely stunning and inspiring - LOVED seeing what you’ve done to your beautiful London apartment. Great job!! 😊
I love the fact that you have taken meticulous care of every detail, in an aesthetic and functional sense. The lighting, the plants, the colors...it all seems very cohesive and fine tuned point by point. I find it great that you have an Arco lamp in your living room. It's also my favorite floor lamp. I have one from Manhattan Home Design and adore its Carrara marble base. 🤩😍✨ Thanks for sharing the tour. 😎✍✔
Loved the flat tour! We have seen bits and pieces in different videos and on your 2nd channel DIY vlogs, but it was satisfying to see it all together. The final edit was beautifully done; thank you for all the time and effort you put into making this flat tour video so good!
Beautiful home Evan! It's been so cool to follow your journey on your second channel and to see it all come together is sooooo satisfying. Super inspired and would love one day to have such a great space like yours. Yes please to that desk tour and excited to see you create more in this space :)
I absolutely love this! Just bought my first home and this has made me SO inspired!!
Such a pretty home you have. I always get so inspired to decorate when you show it
Getting your own flat is an achievement on it's own, but what you've done to the place is also a huge achievement! So well thought out - calming, cohesive and stylish. Thanks for showing us around:)
Love the flat and the decor, but I especially love how passionate you are about it! It really does look lovely :)
It’s great to see how you made the flat your own!! It’d be great to see a video with more details about your home automation setup. Some really cool things going on there!
Wow Evan - love this! I’ve followed you for years and have kept up with your house moving journey and struggles - glad you’re all settled now. You have a good eye for interior design - (puts my flat to shame 😮). It looks so cosy and inviting. Love the different lighting elements and ‘mood lighting’. I’m also a huge fan of having house plants! I currently have a weeping fig tree in my dining room and ivy in my bathroom but would love to use plants around more for deco like you have. You’ve done well and should definitely be proud of your home!
(Side note - what an interesting view too! So many different things to look at. I bet it looks lovely at sunrise/sunset).
Love this video ! Well done Evan, amazing video! I love following the whole flat series and the little details for everything. I'm taking notes for when I have my own place one day!👌🏼
Evan this was amazing! I’m really happy for you and your flat!! It’s so cool and inspiring, loved the wall diy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Fascinating! Hearing your ideas and thoughts on all these aspects of your home. ❤️
Your flat looks so lovely! I wish I had your determination to make your living space so livable.
Very stylish. Like "WOW"! Thanks for the tour and Happy New Year as well.
I love it! the interior design is amazing and so well thought out and the photography is incredible!
Your flat is gorgeous! I moved into my first house last month and I can't wait to have the time to decorate and this is giving me so much inspiration! We've partially decorated our office and it feels so rewarding seeing our personalities revealed. Our house is currently just grey and white except for our bold green office.
I'm obsessed with your flat and it's one of the most beautifully decorated I've ever seen! It's so cozy and it made me so happy to watch you talking about it
Wow, it’s so beautiful! Just shows how much you can do with a totally blank canvas, it’s given me lots of ideas for when I have my own place one day ☺️
Absolutely so wonderful and beautiful!!!! Congratulations on all you have accomplished for yourself, and I hope you love the space you've created with every day you're in it! I love how filled your home is, like everything has its own little spot and the amount of character is just.... astounding! I love everything about it! This has inspired me to keep working on my "future home" power point I've been working on, compiling different looks of rooms and spaces for when my man and I get our future family home together
This brought me joy!
You have great vision, style, personality, and cohesiveness throughout. Hats off to you!
Beautiful prints as well. Once again, place is so stunning and the little touches that you’ve done to make your living space so cohesive is just genius. Taking inspo from the DIYS, I’d love to see you do more of these but obviously you only have one flat 😂 great video
you can't not like this video... simply organized and likeable ... I should keep memories alive & keep a print of my shots.
Everything looks amazing I have been waiting for this video I think it shows off how hard you have worked on this space very well ❤
I've been following your channel since we were both basically kids. Seeing you really happy in your own space is great Evan! My cat really likes all your plants!
Phenomenal video Evan. After the constant stress and low points of moving in and out of like every bnb in London back in 2021, it’s so so great to see you happy and content in your own space. I’ve always loved watching you talk about and show your living spaces because you always take such care and pride in accommodating for your loves and needs. This flat feels like the romantic epic, the masterpiece, the culmination of your work, all inhabited into one environment, which is brilliant! Hahaha also I guess it looks pretty cool too 😂
Refreshing to see a guy taking such a considered approach to home design. I loved that you displayed your own photographs proudly. And of course the Pikachu plush 💛
It’s so so beautiful and so thoughtfully curated! just amazing!
I can really see why it took a year for you to decorate your place. Its got such a warm and homey vibe to it. You really did an excellent job Evan. Its been fun watch you grow and really develop your style. I’m so glad you now have a nice place of your own to call home. And yes, please do a desk tour/slash office tour.
Wow, I wish my room was even close to being as well put together as your flat. Love the vibes!
You have really taken so much care,your attention to detail is impressive. You have created a beautiful home.
This is not just the most beautiful flat I've ever seen but also the most beautiful video, thank you for sharing your stunning personal space with us
It's great to see you so happy in your own space! I cannot wait to move into my own flat and furnish it in my own style as well!
Its lovely, warm and welcoming! Nice work.
You did a phenomenal job, it looks amazing. I can sincerely say I love everything you did!
Amazing, Evan! I really enjoy your videos. Love to see more from your flat.
I loved this tour! You can just see how proud you are and it makes me so happy for you :) My fav part was motion activated stuff (chaining lights in the kitchen, automatic blinds and LED panels under the bed), I would LOOOOVE to see a video on how to set up something like this, I'd like to do this in my future house for sure!
This flat is absolutely beautiful! Congratulations, Evan
This is what I want for my own space, it's so cozy and vibrant, I love it
Wow your apartment looks great, such attention to detail. The lighting in every area is 👌👌👌
lovely! Congrats on all you accomplished designing and creating your space!
You did an amazing job on the decorating, it looks so cozy :)
