House Tours: A 750 Sq Ft NYC Apartment Filled with Clever DIYs

- Опубліковано 27 чер 2024
- Name: Meher Goel
Location: East Village/Gramercy - New York, New York
Size: 750 square feet/69 square meters
Type of Home: Apartment
Years Lived In: 2 years, renting
“I’ve been in New York for 10 years, and this is my first time living alone - a milestone that I wouldn’t have believed had you told me about it 10 years ago as an immigrant in America,” begins product designer Meher Goel, who also tackles and shares home DIYs on her Instagram and TikTok. “The inspiration and courage to live alone after years of shared apartments was born out of the healing process after a few rough years. From forcefully leaving the country and moving then living in an unknown country for almost a year, the biggest heartbreak of my adult life, to a really bad injury that led to two months in a wheelchair, my core priority and need had quickly become wanting a safe place at the end of each day, somewhere that felt like my home. Building my capacity to want to live alone was both liberating and scary. Ahead of my apartment search, I created a vision board of what I wanted it to feel like, look like, stand for, and leave behind. It needed to feel like a fortress of well being, it needed to look like an extension of my creativity, and lastly, stand for a space to nurture community.”

I hope she transforms furniture professionally or part time. What she does with junky furniture is incredible.
Agreed. Her bedroom dresser is amazing! That's my fav piece of hers!
What a talented lady. I love her ability to look at something and say "that's too expensive, I'll make my own." Epic!
I like how creative she was. She definitely made her home a reflection of herself. She did a great job.
Absolutely love her vibe and how that's reflected in her home - clearly something she put love and intention into vs. just buying straight from a showroom. Also think the turtle analogy is so apt!
She is all her own. Beautiful, creative, and so special that she so graciously shared. Thank you lovely lady!
If you are surrounded with plants like that in the living area, you can feel like it's always summer. 😍😍
An inspiring house tour. She is so creative and has obviously put time and energy into lots of projects. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome. Love how this space tells a story about the person who lives there. Beautifully decorated.
I love how much she incorporated the things she loves
Love how she transformed her chair into a caned chair and her mirror. Very talented and resourceful.
So stoked to see a South Asian inspired apartment, bueno bueno bueno!!
The way she has done everything to make the apartment feel home is just beautiful.
So so beautiful, Meher! So lucky to be able to personally attest that this home is not only gorgeous and so thoughtfully crafted but also a safe space for an entire community to pray, connect, grow, cry and learn together. A home to so many!
Incredible space! I live the mix of modern and boho elements. The blue entry way is *amazing!!* 😍 I love how on that wall, the candle sconces seem to match the door locks/handles/hardware, as if to not *_hide_* the typical NYC front door locks but to subtly incorporate them into the design. So many great ideas Iin her video. It would be so great if she had a channel with her DIYs.
When I saw DIY I wasn't expecting the high quality craftsmanship she performed
Wow, this woman ought to be a professional interior designer! Her attitude and talent will take her far!
Her spirit and energy is beautiful. May her path be crossed with those and places that continue to feed it.
Global peace ☮️ 🙏🏽
my favorite thing about this apartment is the way her office looks like an office and her dining area looks like a booth in a really nice restaurant. she did a great job choosing creative placements for those areas and the furniture in them to recreate the experience of actually going out to work or eat not at home.
Well done! Glad to see ‘back home’ elements blending in with eclectic global features… endless joy and peace in all diy and home improvement 🎉
Very inspirational. You can tell she loves living there! You can tell it is "real" because it is a work in progress, as a real home always is!!
I like that you featured someone with a less commonly featured background with an interesting backstory
Her apartment looks so cozy!
Please do more videos like this! More creative spaces with diys and modular solutions. So good, and she was so thorough and intentional👏🏾
Wow her apartment plan is so much similar to mine! Giving me ideas about how to change the layout of my house. And so much character in this home!!
I really like the use of that tray underneath the acrylic coffee table. Those clear tables are great for keeping the space open, but they lack that second shelf for storage underneath.
LOVE her apartment and what she's done!
Wow!! You are an absolute amazing creative lady! Wow! What a great space you have created!
1. GORGEOUS apartment! One of the best I've ever seen on Apartment Therapy! I've only ever bookmarked 2 AT videos for multiple rewatches. This now becomes the third!
2. Wow. I respect her DIY skills and thrifty duping. The faux inlay cabinet, entryway stool bench, and bedside table lamp are my favorites. Now, I hope to create something similar to her cabinet from a thriftily sourced piece of furniture!
3. *immature giggle snort* disco dick
4. I appreciate hearing a city apartment dweller saying she cooks at home a lot. I see too many impractical, barely used kitchens in décor videos and pages. It's refreshing to see a useful and used kitchen.
5. Love, love, love the peacefulness of having her multilingual prayer painting above her bed. Her whole apartment has a heartening vibe, but it really crystalizes in that one choice.
6. I covet that DIY terrarium cabinet! As soon as I move and have space for it, I'm hitting IKEA so hard and fast to set one up for my minijungle! Thank you for that thrifty inspiration!
7. Her space is so homey, charming, and luxurious while still feeling open and airy. She's found that magical balance. Difficult and rare.
8. Yes to always in progress! And, yes to storage bulging with things to swap out and create from!
Too long
Your home is amazing. I love everything about it, especially that you were able to make it reflect your life. Very lovely.
This is a lovely space. She's definitely my kinda lady.
Love her design taste. Excellent and I learned so much.
Beautifully decorated.
Love, love her space and personality! Thank you for sharing your space and reasoning behind your decor. ❤
The mirror! Fantastic DIY project. Love it
What an inspiration! You are so gifted! I can't wait to incorporate some of your ideas into my home. I esp love the blue around the door way. Gorgeous!!!
750 sq ft is actually so much room in nyc, good for her! Beautiful space ✨
What a lovely space filled with personality and functionality! I moved to a smaller older apartment less than two months ago and it's definitely a process getting everything together.
Well done.
Very talented and love the way she has fused cultures.
DIY QUEEN! She really CREATED her dream. Love it!
A great example in interior designing that expresses "who you are." I enjoyed the video and the creative development of your home pieces. You inspired me! Thank you.
That’s a beautiful apartment. So cosy and homely 🏡 And wow, that chair she DIY’d is amazing
Wow what a Beautiful Apartment
What an incredibly creative human! Very inspiring space. Thank you for showing us all the possibilities for getting the look you want without breaking the bank.
Super genuine and talented. Love the apartment!
Super creative and talented
Wow. I really feel so much inspiration. This feels like home to me. I have never viewed an episode that I literally felt peace and a personal connection to the space as I did right now. Sure I have seen styles I wanted to copy but often were mass produced and seen in many bedrooms and living room across the country. This was different. Unique and comfortable and really felt safe?? I honestly enjoyed every moment. Just lovely .
Creative. Artsy. DIY. Large space for NYC.
Beautiful apartment
Interesting, beautiful space. Loved every explanation along the way, too.
i'm just looking up how 750 sq feet apartments layout could look like but i was absolutely charmed by this lady and stories of her belongings, so i watched till the end ♥
Lovely
wow she's super talented and absolute goals. i wish i had the confidence and creativity to DIY things like that.
The view from her kitchen window is priceless. ❤
A remarkable person
One of the best DIY results I have ever seen. Very inspiring!
Great Job!!!
Meher has great talent. She should be an interior designer for people on a budget.Her presentation was very down to earth. Thanks for this video.
What a talent! Beautiful home for a beautiful soul.
Meher did a fantastic job with all of her DIY's and the overall decor of her space ! Awesome and very inspiring ! ☀☀☀
The chair is so much better than her inspiration chair. Her aesthetic are on point.
Beautiful 🤩
You’ve created a beautiful home! I love your DIYs and how you incorporated the elements that you love into a cohesive comfortable space! ❤
Everything in this apartment was so beautiful
Beautiful space! She's done a great job.
I LOVE the painting above her sofa!
Really love this space! Love all the black and white Moroccan touches and the blue walls with the temple designs on the door looks so great!
I love the creativity of Ms. Girl. She has inspired me to stencil my dresser. I understand that’ll take me a bit of time because I’m not that handy with things ( eye-hands coordination and pencil grip is not the best) but I’ll do it. Thanks for being positive.
Yes, boo! Love it! Such an inspired and self-actualized space. Bravo!
The dresser,i am in love! ❤ 13:46
Beautiful.
Just one word: wow! I loved every minute of this, and there are so many amazing diy things I’ve never seen before. The painted arch over the door is one of my favorites!
Great ideas
Hello my fellow Baha'i! The round sunset picture reminds me of the cover of the children's book about Badi and , of course, the gallery wall would not be complete without the photo of Abdu'l-Baha! Love your diys and everything you've done!
Very creative space
Talented girl and her space is so beautiful

Ma'am!! Your diys look AMAZING!!! I love your space!
Love it!!!!
I love your place! You are so artistic. The layout and room dimensions are amazing. I recently lived in an apartment that was considered the same size so I am familiar with that exact footprint. You have done such an incredible job. Thank you so much for sharing.
Love from India 🇮🇳 loved it that ur roots aren't forgotten n they find place in ur decor ❤
Awesome apartment! Such a phenomenal use of space and cool DIY elements. I'm a huge Frida Kahlo fan too! ❤
Bravo!!! My design style is eclectic and l enjoy using colours in all my spaces.
We do seem to be in the minority rebelling against minimalism and neutrals 😊😊
Creatively done. I found it inspirational.
Cool, I love the Stuytown/Peter Cooper Village area.
The wood framing your mirror is called Diamond Willow…it grows in Northern Canada in BC
I love the DIY green house, that is such a creative way to bring in some nature to a space; saving this for after my home renovations are done!
Wow I love everything but you DIYS are amazing!!!! Very talented 😊
I ❤every moment of this apartment and her spirit 😊
Very beautiful apartment, with a lot of personality❤❤
Outstanding! My favorite DIY is the front door and wall in that gorgeous blue and white, the plant cabinet and the chair are a close second and third.
Glad to get to know this young woman a bit. Stunning space.
