Yeah, the apartment building next door was really blocking a lot of natural light, but they managed to maximize exposure on the other side. When inside you had no sense of the apartments looming above.
This is one of the most creative uses of space I've seen. Truly amazing and inspirational. Ranks among one of your best videos. I just wish we got to see the bedroom and other areas in more detail.
Wonderful, in so many ways ! I appreciate the use of "privacy" windows/lights wells towards the condos, terrific lighting. The "Soltice" windows are FAB. As a nod to the ancient Maya, Aztec, Stonehenge, etc. Solstice, eclipses and the unique phases of the moon both acknowledged and celebrated by such a lovely approach. A delightful space of vissionaries, creatives to enjoy solo moments of relaxtion and inspiration and or gathering for the joys of sharing. Wonderful, thatnk you.
This reminds me of a house I looked at buying about 30 years ago. It was built by the local Carpenters Union Apprenticeship Program in conjunction with the area Plywood Manufacturers Association in Grays Harbor, Washington. The home was built in the 50’s and had that kind of styling and had a huge amount of built In cabinetry. The other thing I remember about the home, which was an estate sale as the original owner had passed away and the family had moved out of the area, was a poster I noticed on one bedroom wall. It was an original Beatles concert poster that had been a prized possession of the teenage girl who grew up in the home back in the early 60’s. I didn’t buy the house, or the poster, and I wonder who owns the home today.
Kirsten another amazing video. I think my favorite videos are the garage conversions and the ADU's. These home designs seem normal. I'm not really into extreme designs. More videos like this please.

I live in an ADU, and love that I don't have to share walls, and get to live in a cute older neighborhood. Everything is energy efficient as well. My place is where my landlord's old unattached garage was, and fits in with the vibe of the neighborhood.
What an amazing space developed from an old garage. Beautiful design the built in hidden spaces make this a comfortable home. I want the interior design plans if they are available! ❤😅🎉
I come here to collect ideas and inspiration for my future home build… and this one was a treasure chest! The LIGHT! The built ins! Such a pleasant place to live.
Ha. Good summary of that moment. It was super odd for me to be so close to a skunk and really no one else, except Nico, seemed that bothered by it. I guess it's a common thing in that neighborhood.
I am curious to know how that property is zoned? he renovated the garage into a livable space. which means the square footage has changed. . I wonder if he had to get a variance because of the city's setbacks from the property lines on each side and the front

Its an ADU accessory dwelling unit. Many california cities are allowing them to be built out into livable space but they likely have a size limit. Having the existing garage likely allowed approval for theirs to be grandfathered in as long as they kept most of the original structure. Its a sort of loophole.

The idea is to offer affordable options to buyers and increase population density in residential neighborhoods. This is a positive step forward in my opinion, but I am sure there are some who hate this trend.
His film looks great. And the trailer was cut to a great piece of Bolivian music (I had to cut that because of copyright), but here is the original ua-cam.com/video/iPhhk2Z3E7Y/v-deo.html
The yellow color of the plywood is nauseating. The walls and furniture could have been a peaceful, concrete grey color, which would have complemented the outside green better. The design could have brought in more light
OBSESSED with how they approached adding natural light. 🎉❤

I absolutely love this beautiful space. The gardens too... I have gleaned inspiration from this piece, thank you all.

So well designed. Making the most of a small space.
Kirsten, I LOVE THIS HOME. So many innovative solutions to light, storage, function and privacy as well as being beautiful. Bravo!
Love the warmth of the varnished plywood. The "hidden" windows are a great idea.
Seriously, this place eclipses so many others with it’s unique features and all that beautiful plywood. 👍👍
😅😅😅schöne Fenster. Und bei den Preisen wird euch allen schlecht. Bodentief. Keine Schwelle. Was ist denn bei einem Unwetter mit dem Wasser?

Awesome place. Sense of peace surrounds one. Thank you for the visit ❤

ADU units, done properly will be a godsend to owners/renters/leasors

Exceptionally creative.
I absolutely love it ! And the chairs look great , I don't know why he is not happy about them . With a Murakami n the wall😍
Good catch on the Murakami. Nico and I also loved the chairs. Didn't dig to find out why he didn't like them.
Amazing Space!!!!! 😇Thanks!!
love everything on this project
Very magical place ! ❤
This may be my favorite of all of the places you've featured.
WOW, looks like it's in the city. Amazing space.
Yeah, it's right in Echo Park.
I want that eclipse window!
Love it!
Great episode! Thank you!
🙋♂️🤗THANKS KIRSTEN 😎 A UNIQUE BUILDING…MAXIMIZING SPACE 💚💚💚
Loving this black cat skunk looney tunes moment
Ha. Good summary of that moment. It was super odd for me to be so close to a skunk and really no one else, except Nico, seemed that bothered by it. I guess it's a common thing in that neighborhood.
Fabulous and innovative design, love this
Really like the way this unfolded…
Nice space. The garden is lovely too.
Are you able to share the dimensions and or a floor plan? What a cool place!
Well done!
Nice space!
That's Beautiful!!
This is really nice. Reminds me of an Airstream, but bigger.
Excellent design.
Excellent design!
very nice!
Dope place!
Utilitarian art! Love it❣
love love love love!!!!
nice to see some creativity and unique response to the site vs pre-fab which can be cool but not as creative or warm.
So nice.... From the Ozarks USA drinking free fresh spring water 💦 this morning 🌄🌄
So very beautiful
AHAmazing!
The diner bench would be a little too hard long term.
Feels like Frank Loyd Wright that never made it and ended up in his custom trailer.
Yesirreee, Kirsten!
very nice
Wow 🤩 give me the architects address. I need something like this. So satisfying to imagine yourself in there.
Here's his website www.colterandco.com/ (email is there)
Very Cool.
Nicely Done, Sir 🎉
JO JO IN VT 💞
I wonder how much this cost. Also, does that large window to the yard have a screen?
What was the cost approx?
And this can be yours for the low low price of 2.2 million!
Is it code?
Thats a good kitty. The skunk is no match for that big boy.
Hi miss Kirsten 😎🍹🇪🇺
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I am curious to know how that property is zoned? he renovated the garage into a livable space. which means the square footage has changed. . I wonder if he had to get a variance because of the city's setbacks from the property lines on each side and the front
Lovely use of a old building.
That mirror on exhaust would always be dirty if you dare to cook.😜

I like everything except the tree growing through the roof. Growing up in the Midwest I've seen too many trees actually destroy the house.
👍
This is basically what I want but a treehouse and the whole west facing wall of the house will be glass.
Thank you for your videos.Please study-Ernesto Sirolli and Daniel Priestley thanks

nice house to watch a nuclear mushroom from
Well now I want to watch Jaltäña.
Watch out for views @Cristhian Barron

his toyota is about 30 000 $. Well, yes, he can afford to do such construction.
Wow! That's Heavy and Far Out there sister....an you got a glimpse of Pe'pe LaPew!😁🦨
