No way this is my uncle!! So glad to see his place revisited again with an updated tour. Seeing it in person is even more incredible, he's an amazing collector and always has a story to share behind every piece of art, furniture and design aspect I pointed out while visiting him. He's my inspiration as i'm starting my first year in design! :)
Really ? Your uncle is amazing at designing space . I was in awe of his entire apartment. Very efficient use of space and that outdoor plant wall ❤❤❤ I love it ! You have a mentor for your study program. Lucky you . Please tell him , his apartment is beautifully decorated and designed. I thoroughly enjoyed the video 👍👍👍
this guy's organizational skills are on another level! He's quite a maximalist with minimalist aesthetics. But every object in his flat has its place and serves several purposes, which is not always the case for everyone
pretty sure i saw this guy's apartment when he was was just done renovating it and he had one of those electric looking fireplaces in his lounge. doesn't appear to be there anymore. his washer and dryer were also in another location before.
Lol reveal the space, so delightful. He illustrates to me a property buyers unique skill preference, only sometimes seen in Realty. Thank you. ❤ Melbourne
Loved hearing Daniel speak in depth about the small details of his home. You can tell he doesn’t collect things for the sake of owning them there is always a purpose or story
Omg is his name Daniel(?) - that's so lovely... I kept thinking he is like I would want to be... so meticulous and organised and my sons name is Daniel. I have always liked the name Daniel 😅
I saw this home on UA-cam 4 years ago on this very channel, back when it was all shiny and new. So glad to see how it has grown and evolved and how the person living there has evolved too!
Yeah!!! I KNEW I’d seen this before! Thought I was going crazy! 😂 (original vid is listed. just open up the description on the video ^ (tap the “…more”) and scroll down a bit 👍🏽)
This small space is by far the most intricately designed on this channel and I loved it! I love simple and minimal design but this does not look one bit cluttered despite having so many art pieces and items around. Every nook and cranny is not wasted and being utilized so well with his hacks. Creativity at its finest 🎉
My jaw keep dropping every 5 seconds watching this video: the Ikea hook wine storage! The washer tucked away under the vanity! So many other little details! So much love and care was clearly put into this home. ❤
That wine storage using hooks is great idea, but side of fridge might not be good place for it - my fridge is heating on sides and I would end up with mulled wine 🙃
This guy can come and design my space any time! What an amazing amount of smart, practical and beautifully designed areas in every corner of his home! He’s really thought through his personal needs for every aspect of his life and created a home that is truly special and inspiring. This episode is my favourite so far this year!
None of this would work for me. But if it works for him that’s awesome! Having a very low to the floor coffee table, for instance, seems absurd to me. But I don’t have to live there.
Typically NTS videos are less than 10 minutes - but man was this video worth every extra second. Loved the ideas, loved how in tune the architect is with his space and loved the look and feel of the space. WOW!!
19:23 I absolutely LOVE THIS tour! He seems like such a cool person, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen such intense attention to details and storage! And the art integration with the apartment was phenomenal!
Daniel Dorall's Melbourne apartment is a stunning example of how creativity and meticulous planning can transform even the smallest spaces! 🌟 It’s impressive how he has managed to organize and display his extensive art and book collection without making the space feel cluttered. The space-saving hacks, like the versatile IKEA hook and the hidden pull-out dish rack drawer, are brilliant and truly showcase his innovative approach to design. I’m especially fascinated by the hidden home studio he’s created in the ceiling space-what a clever use of every inch! 🛠📚 This apartment is not just a home but a well-thought-out masterpiece. Kudos to Dorall for turning his living space into such an efficient and inspiring environment! 👏🏽🏠
If apartments in the States were designed like THIS apartment - with high ceilings and huge windows for light - then sure, living in 450 square feet might be doable for many. But here, most apartments are just hastily slapped together boxes with no form or function, little light, little insulation, very little quiet, and very little charm. Daniel has really made his place cozy, gorgeous, and oh so livable! I just love how everything is curated so specifically, and with such an eye for detail. I also love how he "thinks outside the box" when it comes to the use of IKEA items; who says you can't make your place look beautiful on a budget?! This is really one of my favorite apartments that I've seen on NTS/YT! **saves**
I love how honest he is about the place and how things change and may evolve in the future. Also, we dont often get to see a person owning a lot of things and I am very happy to see that living in a small space does not mean having to get rid of everything you have and that theres a lot of ways to live in a space no matter what you do for a living, the hobbies you have or the things you collect. Theres a lot of great solutions here and I felt very happy when he spoke about the place above his wardrove having suitcases and christmas decorations, because we all have that, we dont access frecuently to it and its a great place to save all that and he uses the high of the apartment to work in its favour. Amazing video 👏👏👏👏👏
Loyal viewer of this channel and I have to say, this is definitely one of my favorite spaces thus far...Completely HIS OWN. I think most modern/minimalistic spaces go for a more typical templated look & style, but it ends up looking like a copy/paste Scandinavian design inspired home that we've seen on these kinds of channels a billion times. It's a nice aesthetic, but lacks personality and tells me nothing about the particular interests of its owner other than the fact that they like minimalism. However, this space, is unique and truly stands out because every inch has been crafted to represent an interest or extension of the owner...How it should be. Kudos to this man!
Yes, it's nice to see how the space is actually used by the person living there, and the tweaks made over time to make it more functional. Whenever I see the architect tours of a new space, the design is usually impressive, but then you start wondering - yeah, but where do they put their toaster? or vacuum? and other practical things like that, which aren't necessarily aesthetic. This really gets into a lot of those little solutions that make a huge difference when you're actually using the space.
I remember watching him in one of NTS early days episodes and loved how his home is even more curated and personalised now. There is something very soothing about his voice and his modern bespoke home..❤
A bit maximalist for my taste, but what I really appreciate with this example is how attainable it is. Lots of DIY solutions and Ikeahacks. You can tell the flat organically grew to what it is over many years instead of being a space that was created by professionals within a few weeks.
It’s so funny how many viewers of this channel find this maximalist. I’ve seen some apartment therapy videos of people’s spaces in New York and the amount of stuff some people have and display, is just overwhelming. To me this place feels very well curated and because it focuses so much on the art, it doesn’t feel so maximalist to me.
@@notjustirene I know, right...curated is a beautiful way to put it...not just some mass produced niff noff from a home decor big box store but art, lovingly curated, from one human soul to another.
I very much enjoyed this ‘casual interview’ format, a homeowner talking about his space and its personal impact. it’s a good contrast to your usual architect/designer presentations. NTS should do these more often!
I love how he displays his different types of paintings and art objects, and how he shares tips and affordable products from Ikea that ordinary people can buy and make their homes look tasteful. Thanks and well done!
This is easily my favourite NTS space I've seen. All of the integrated storage is just swoon-worthy and to have it done in such an aesthetically pleasing way is marvellous. Truly beautifully done.
I love Daniel's space, style and values! I really appreciate that he went into detail about his storage hacks and how he turns minimal into maximal by using the available space in a clever way. He also shows that you can have beautiful things in small environment. The key is to invest in quality, long lasting items. Thanks so much Daniel for sharing!
It made me happy to see Asian sensibilities along side technical expertise. From the ad hoc clothes rail, re-purposed Ikea hooks, to the ingenious ventilation/leg cut out. This home seems like such an embodiment of Daniel himself!
0:43 When a chair becomes an art collection in your wall ❤ Absolutely love it! 👏 Love the upstairs study, love the windows, love the light, love the view, love his deep voice 😁
Does anyone have an idea of the reference for this chair? I would be very interested. It looks like Hay's result chair but it seems they didn't produce a folding chair.
I love it, personally I find it quite spacious, beautifully curated with much loved objects. This is a home that has evolved, owned by a creative, practical individual with very good taste.
I love the time taken to explore all his storage ideas. I can feel his love and satisfaction with this space because it's his home. So often these small spaces are architecturally amazing but don't have the detail of homes.
Thank the host with so much smile on the face for the owner to feel so comfortable to share all the unique features he has in this lovely home! The ikea hook is a genius idea!
I love all the small tricks to organize space and also all the little details that show that he really lives in and really enjoys his appartment. One of the best videos for a while to me ! Minimalists is not meant for everyone and sometimes a bit boring
The studio part was insane. How much he improved the perceived space with the combination of fake skylight, mirror and window into the living room below is genius.
Finally a well crafted flat with smart and elegant solutions, grounded and cost-efficient. Not a fan of the concrete island, but it does have its place with the owner's aesthetic. Well done.
I often think I would like a bit of land with a small home and workshop, but when Daniel said he’s a city person, no need for a car & all the convenience - so good! And the way he’s utilising his small space makes me rethink 👏🏼 Oh how I love & miss Melbourne!
I’m a 53yr old brand/web/designer/artist/minimalist and have lived alone all my adult life - and wouldn’t change it for anything or anyone. This unit was a great find, and Daniel has done just amazing rework with such ingenious considerations. Design is such a powerful tool. Greetings to all from Nairobi, Kenya 🇰🇪.
Love this home! Walls full of paintings, comfy couch and furniture and full of stuff. For those of us who aren’t, amd will never be, minimalists this was a treat.
This guy is such a sweetheart, and the home is so cleverly designed in the smallest details. Love the door mural and the secret office space above the bathroom. The only thing I'd change is to add something to the ceiling like an round mural above the sofa or an artistic room divider to create more cosiness in the open area.
The owner is so inspiring! How he carefully describes all his belongings really charms. Love some of the ideas. The bathroom is the best, top of the list
Small? This apartment is bigger than my whole apartment complex! 😄AND has an amazing view plus these awesome columns framing the window. - He lives in an AMAZING building. I would say the most beautiful building in Melbourne from what I street viewed now. The BIC STORE at 2.15 (an old warehouse) is also an amazing building that is abandoned since 1968! Only the ground level has a grocery store now. That could be transformed into wonderful apartments, too.
I am fascinated by the beauty of the interior and the location. This is truly spectacular! There is harmony between everything! I love the way functionality and esthetic details blend in with the exquisite art in place. This is one of the most beautiful home I have seen where one could relax surrounded by such a well organized and heartfelt design. Well done!
This place is fabulous. It doesn’t feel tiny at all. I don’t often say this about the tiny spaces on this channel, but every room has more than enough storage space. Even the kitchen.
Yes! A kitchen that I actually believe someone regularly cooks in! Some of the kitchens on this channel have little to no room for storing dry goods, cookware, etc., let alone additional dinnerware for serving guests. This one was a real, live, full functional kitchen!
I follow this channel for years now and remember the appartment from the first video but THIS!? This is hands down the best I have seen on NTS. Just Jawdropping beautiful!
I love what you did with the space! I remember when the neighbours flooded. We were in Unit 602 and like you we wanted to buy this vacant part of the building next to us and expand our living space! But people voted no so we moved on. Your home is so warm and inviting. You must love it ❤
It has always been one of my favorite NTS apartments. Now it's even better. The new studio space was one of those fantastic discoveries. Excellent use of every corner. Congrats❤
I love this home so much! I also have a big art and book collection, but I never thought of bathing my home in it all. Who says maximalism has to be a cluttered mess? This is thoughtful, carefully curated, and well designed. Bravo!
I usually don't like architects' homes, but Daniel's is an exception. It has plenty of interesting and practical(!) architectural features, but it also has that curated art/book/design/plant collector vibe. Very appealing! It's not my colorful scheme; it's a bit too neutral/muted/almost bare minimalistic, but exactly because of that its maximalist style gives the minimalistic impression. Extremely well-curated, Daniel! If I once needed an architect and would live in Australia, it definitely would be you who I would be searching for. Thanks for sharing your home with us!
OMG I love what he did with his pantry! Especially the drawer with tall jars! 👏👏👏👏👏 Fantastic idea to have a bi-fold door in the bathroom given he has another door. And that bathroom is gorgeous and feels so peaceful. I think I would be lost in there for hours 😂 I love his studio. It allows anyone working in there to just focus on the project currently at hand.
I enjoyed watching you talk about your art and objects and architecture so much that I forgot I was watching a Never Too Small video. 😂 Lovely! I especially love all your storage!! I would describe it as 'comfortably structured urban artistic abode with a cozy minimalist feel' and let the mystery ruminate in their head. (People tell me I use too many words)
I adore Daniel's home and feel so drawn to the way he talks about his collections and the love he has for objects and the stories behind them. I am the same, I collect artwork and also am a lover of thrifting and collecting objects from my travels. So seeing how Daniel has curated his loved objects while still keeping a light, bright and clean aesthetic with visual interest is so inspiring!
you can tell when an architect dwelves in interior design because the objects in different spaces start to look like small cities. Look at the tv place @18:58, its like seeing tiny sky skyscrapers with their tiny inhabitants, these clusters are places to experience and visit instead of just things to look at.
So he collects art, objects, and books... and plants, and jackets, and perfumes, and miniatures, and ikea hacks lol Loved this one, it's my dream apartment!
Oh my God, it was quite an experience, watching this tour! I really like the fact that he designed everything for his personal use and didn't care about what people could think (for example the different ways of using Ikea hooks!). Well done!
No way this is my uncle!! So glad to see his place revisited again with an updated tour. Seeing it in person is even more incredible, he's an amazing collector and always has a story to share behind every piece of art, furniture and design aspect I pointed out while visiting him.

tell him i love his space, you'll do amazing in design with him around
Ditto, pls tell your uncle how fabulous the space is…..
Really ? Your uncle is amazing at designing space . I was in awe of his entire apartment. Very efficient use of space and that outdoor plant wall ❤❤❤ I love it !
You have a mentor for your study program. Lucky you . Please tell him , his apartment is beautifully decorated and designed.
I thoroughly enjoyed the video 👍👍👍
He seems like a cool guy to hang out with. And very innovative and inspirational. Good luck with your studies!
Please tell him his place is small but STUNNING! (those windows and that view are to die for!) Oh and where did he get that amazing knife set???
this guy's organizational skills are on another level! He's quite a maximalist with minimalist aesthetics. But every object in his flat has its place and serves several purposes, which is not always the case for everyone
You took the words out of my mouth!
@@trisnaekowiyatnikawaii3860 indeed!

doesn't appear to be there anymore. his washer and dryer were also in another location before.
I love how much care and thought he puts in this apartment. Its like his personal garden, his sacred place.
Only a professional architect could carve out that attic space and use it as a studio! Ingenious 😮
fact check: false
Lol reveal the space, so delightful. He illustrates to me a property buyers unique skill preference, only sometimes seen in Realty. Thank you. ❤ Melbourne

ya thats how self storage companies make money cause everything has a story which you dont want to get rid off
That surprise extra 2,5 m above the ceiling is amazing. And how wonderful it is that a water damage incident led to a positive outcome this way.
totally agree
I saw this home on UA-cam 4 years ago on this very channel, back when it was all shiny and new. So glad to see how it has grown and evolved and how the person living there has evolved too!
Yeah!!! I KNEW I’d seen this before! Thought I was going crazy! 😂 (original vid is listed. just open up the description on the video ^ (tap the “…more”) and scroll down a bit 👍🏽)
came to the comments section specifically to see whether anyone recognised this home as well, or was it just my mind playing tricks on me.
Thanks for the heads up on an earlier episode! Will have to find it! 😎✌️
I thought it looked familiar as well.
Found the old episode. Fantastic art.
Has to be one of the best NTS. Everything in its place is an understatement. This man is a design genius actually

If it helps at all, for the price of this apartment (even without the beautiful fit out) you could probably buy a four bed house in the mid-west
@@Seamalicous Ah but then you would have to live in the Midwest.
Finally! An apartment that has artwork everywhere while still feeling clean and organized.
i would have the entire place 98% empty of all the stuff that he has,,, only keep a sofa a bed and almost nothing else!
I love how honest he is about the place and how things change and may evolve in the future. Also, we dont often get to see a person owning a lot of things and I am very happy to see that living in a small space does not mean having to get rid of everything you have and that theres a lot of ways to live in a space no matter what you do for a living, the hobbies you have or the things you collect.

It's homes like this one that made me fall in love with small spaces. So much thought and creativity go into them.
Finally, it's been a while since we've had a Never Too Small where someone ACTUALLY looks like they LIVE there.
Loyal viewer of this channel and I have to say, this is definitely one of my favorite spaces thus far...Completely HIS OWN.
I think most modern/minimalistic spaces go for a more typical templated look & style, but it ends up looking like a copy/paste Scandinavian design inspired home that we've seen on these kinds of channels a billion times.

that is not living small, thats a HUGE apartment
I love his thoughtfulness, attention to detail and care. My jaw truly dropped when he pulled the ladder down to the studio space. Well done!

A master class in designing a small space. I love everything you did. For a small space, you're living large
My favorite art from this apartment is the handdrawn landscape on the door!!
O, it's my favorite too
This is so amazing! You have utilized every square centimeter! Nice job and beautiful too.❤
I remember Daniel's apartment from another tour, and I absolutely ADORE this space. The thought, the details, the composition...simply sublime!
I couldn't keep my jaw closed the WHOLE TIME!!! Amazing inspiration!
That garden balcony was absolutely divine!!!
big windows always makes a huge difference. This space is maximized! well done

Love how realistic this guy is. Up front in acknowledging that volume is the key to living comfortably in 40-50 sqm.
Neither genius, fame, nor love show the greatness of the soul. Only kindness can do that.
I used to live in this building. I love how he’s decorated this! Wonderful
Love this home! Walls full of paintings, comfy couch and furniture and full of stuff. For those of us who aren’t, amd will never be, minimalists this was a treat.

My favourite apartment on this channel so far AND by far.
This man has incredible architectural and interior design skills. Wow🔥🔥🔥
This apartment has evolved so much since it was first shown. I loved it then and I love it even more now.
As a Scandinavian it’s great fun to see all the designs from our part of the world situated in Australia 👏
This is by far the best NTS space ever! Love the work you've done Daniel, and now I know what to do with my art collection! I would live here any day.
Its a repost from 4 years ago ...
@@whatisjaspdoing ?
I love this apartment. It shows a collectors place and also a wonderful interior design, not as empty as the usual posts. Bravo!

Small? This apartment is bigger than my whole apartment complex! 😄AND has an amazing view plus these awesome columns framing the window. - He lives in an AMAZING building.

I love the way functionality and esthetic details blend in with the exquisite art in place. This is one of the most beautiful home I have seen where one could relax surrounded by such a well organized and heartfelt design. Well done!
I love how he talked about his home. Everything was so smartly made and although I dont know him, it feels like it really reflected who he is.
Well said, Daniel, brilliantly designed, beautifully curated. What an absolute pleasure.
This episode is very special, the depth of detail he provides is very inspiring. 🤩
This is such a cool apartment - I love how the collection doesn't overtake the home and actually is seamlessly integrated. Very cool! 😎

I follow this channel for years now and remember the appartment from the first video but THIS!? This is hands down the best I have seen on NTS. Just Jawdropping beautiful!
I love what you did with the space! I remember when the neighbours flooded. We were in Unit 602 and like you we wanted to buy this vacant part of the building next to us and expand our living space! But people voted no so we moved on. Your home is so warm and inviting. You must love it ❤
Spiritual intelligence utilized at its best!!!! I'm just summing up how beautifully this apartment is utilized. Thank you for the tour.❤❤❤
It has always been one of my favorite NTS apartments. Now it's even better. The new studio space was one of those fantastic discoveries. Excellent use of every corner. Congrats❤
His attention to detail! 😍 So many clever innovations. I’m definitely taking notes.
I love this home so much! I also have a big art and book collection, but I never thought of bathing my home in it all. Who says maximalism has to be a cluttered mess? This is thoughtful, carefully curated, and well designed. Bravo!
I usually don't like architects' homes, but Daniel's is an exception.
It has plenty of interesting and practical(!) architectural features, but it also has that curated art/book/design/plant collector vibe. Very appealing!
It's not my colorful scheme; it's a bit too neutral/muted/almost bare minimalistic, but exactly because of that its maximalist style gives the minimalistic impression.
Extremely well-curated, Daniel!
If I once needed an architect and would live in Australia, it definitely would be you who I would be searching for. Thanks for sharing your home with us!
This by far is my favorite vid. Dude has utilized every inch of space in a functional and anesthetic manner 👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
A few great hacks here! Love how he uses the ikea hooks
this is by far the BEST small space i've seen! EVER!!
OMG I love what he did with his pantry! Especially the drawer with tall jars! 👏👏👏👏👏
Fantastic idea to have a bi-fold door in the bathroom given he has another door. And that bathroom is gorgeous and feels so peaceful. I think I would be lost in there for hours 😂
I love his studio. It allows anyone working in there to just focus on the project currently at hand.
I enjoyed watching you talk about your art and objects and architecture so much that I forgot I was watching a Never Too Small video. 😂 Lovely! I especially love all your storage!! I would describe it as 'comfortably structured urban artistic abode with a cozy minimalist feel' and let the mystery ruminate in their head. (People tell me I use too many words)
I adore Daniel's home and feel so drawn to the way he talks about his collections and the love he has for objects and the stories behind them. I am the same, I collect artwork and also am a lover of thrifting and collecting objects from my travels. So seeing how Daniel has curated his loved objects while still keeping a light, bright and clean aesthetic with visual interest is so inspiring!
Wow, wow, wow, ...! I am an art teacher and for me this flat is so fantastic. Beautiful, bright, .... I would love to live there!
It's a great, very nicely fitted design overall, but I must say, I really, REALLY love the floor - this concrete/Terrazzo is absolutely gorgeous
you can tell when an architect dwelves in interior design because the objects in different spaces start to look like small cities. Look at the tv place @18:58, its like seeing tiny sky skyscrapers with their tiny inhabitants, these clusters are places to experience and visit instead of just things to look at.
I have never seen such a beautiful and well thought out home! I love it so much! Well done!!!
Everything was super functional and beautiful. Well done 👏
This guy is a genius. I am so impressed with how he manages his place
One of the best homes I’ve seen. He has put so much thought into making it functional while still maintaining beautiful aesthetic.
The hook wine rack made me smile. Clever!
So he collects art, objects, and books... and plants, and jackets, and perfumes, and miniatures, and ikea hacks lol
Loved this one, it's my dream apartment!
Oh my God, it was quite an experience, watching this tour! I really like the fact that he designed everything for his personal use and didn't care about what people could think (for example the different ways of using Ikea hooks!). Well done!
