Faced with a blank canvas, the team at Studio Papaya set out to create an open flexible space using a series of custom-made multifunctional “slide and fold” furniture pieces that can be hidden away when not in use. First among these is a custom partition hidden within a mirrored wall in the open dining, living and sleeping area. When slid out, it features a TV mounted on one side and a fold-out table on the other. The focal point of this area is the custom wood and red velvet sofa on wheels integrated into the wall behind it, which folds down into a bed at night. Two small footrests beside the sofa, also on wheels, double as seats or coffee tables. A foldable dining table on wheels can be easily moved around the apartment and onto the large terrace that acts as an extension of the living area.

Genius. That’s one of the smallest you’ve had in a while but the design functionality has done an amazing job of utilising everything.
Finally a small space with a full size bed that is accessible from 3 sides. . .no one is crammed up against a wall. Love the TV wall piece. It acts as a room divider, but voila when it disappears the whole apartment opens up to one large space. This apartment is very livable. Genius.
Personally I prefer to be sleeping against a wall so having just two sides available is not necessarily a problem in itself
That's a very high bed, though! Not sure why it is so tall.
I have put my double bed against a wall in every single house that my girlfriend and I have ever lived in, there's nothing objectively wrong with that.
this type of design for small spaces is really why i subscribe to this channel…love how they mixed functionality with aesthetics. a winner!
THIS is the type of content I'm here for. Fully small space transformation. Clever choices and great designed furnitures made this project really feel spacious and special ! Fantastic job.
Like the layout, but those dining chairs look very uncomfortable. Not a fan of dark counter top and bathroom sink. Clever way to hide TV. Nice balcony and love plants. Smile, you did 👍. TFS
Another great design from Studio Papaya! The ways they divide small spaces and design multipurpose furniture is some of the best.
Many thanks!
@@studiopapayaprojetos parabens!!!
Based on its smart planning and multifunctional solutions, this is one of the best studio apartments that I've ever seen. It even has a fully equipped kitchen 😍
😍
It looked almost institutional before. It made me feel claustrophobic! But now it's so open but still cozy. I love the table, the pull out and the balcony is my favorite! Lovely colors too, and great lighting set up. I love the mirror wall across from the windows. It creates a bit of a scenery feedback loop and makes it feel that much more light and open!
Like he explained in the end, houses in Brazil are sold bare: just walls and floors with no finishing or built in furniture. The toilets and sinks/faucets are simple cheap models that are there just so you can inspect your unit as it's being built to see if the drains work.
The owners are suppose to undergo full renovation once the building is finished.
If you rent it's almost the same: the owner might leave kitchen cabinets on as they sometimes prohibit wall drilling; the walls and floors will be finished - but NO kitchen appliances or furniture at all.
It's our culture in Brazil, we don't like cookie cutter houses.
I hope future episodes would also include the breakdown of costs for each tiny home renovations so viewers would have an idea how much they should have to save and spend for their own dream homes
Because let's admit it, most of the features in this channel had been pet projects by architects and interior designers to boast of their artistry. Most of them are *not* cost effective solutions to housing crisis rampant everywhere. Many couldn't afford those fixtures and exorbitant fees charged by designers. Because if they're truly cost effective, this channel would've posted the cost breakdown from day one.
I really think that will vary so much between countries and based on so many different factors. I would hate to get bogged down with all the details of the money and wondering about all the variables. Like if the client did some of the labor, how much a city charges for permitting, or if a specific city was in some sort of economic crisis that affected prices, etc. If we took on the same project on there is no guarantee our project would be even close. No, let us just look at the lovely furnishings, get ideas, and be inspired by these wonderful spaces!
Those custom set pieces I'd assume would cost someone with average salary an arm and a leg. They aren't even modular. Some aren't even practical for the space, just there for aesthetics and "art's sake". This is a home of a bourgeois who can afford to spend thousands of dollars for a "tiny" home, let's agree with that. I'd appreciate if they'd start to feature more upcycled furnitures or modular pieces that you can build yourself, for half the price. Just tired of seeing more of art projects promoting expensive designer pieces probably sourced from IKEA or other upscale stores for 200 bucks than more practical, *cheaper* tiny home solution alternatives achievable for everyone that recommend similar furnitures built by grassroots carpenters or bought from Amazon for reduced price tags. I'm not singling out this designers/architects, but if you could ask them, can they honestly say that someone from a favella could afford this kind of home?
@@RixMorales I'm Brazilian and this type of apartment is typically acquired during the construction phase, allowing the owner to choose the finishes. Considering this, the cost of customizing the furnishings is not exorbitant. However, it's important to note that those who can afford to buy such apartments are privileged and well above the average income level of the population.
@@RixMorales and I think that it's impossible to directly compare costs between cities and countries due to numerous variables. The value of the "same apartment" in different locations would undergo radical changes
I was gagged when the TV came out. One of my absolute favorites, I would love to live here.
Thanks NTS! We loved the process and the result of working with you guys! Hoping a next opportunity!
Very nice design and super practical use of the space, well done
This is a proper small space design, with no pretentious color/design plays, overselling of basic ideas, or dictating the occupant to change their lifestyle because the design looks fancier. Weldone!
Wow - another brilliant design by Studio Papaya! So many designers create showpieces that are actually uncomfortable and feel sterile. Studio Papaya spaces are always gorgeous warm homes, with colour and texture, where real people can live comfortably. Real people need to take their jackets off, and sometimes they just want to lie back and watch tv. To accomplish all of this in such a small footprint is truly amazing! Bravo.
This is amazing! I absolutely adore the multifunctional furniture and the big windowfront. I feel like this is actually the best way of using the entire space. 🤩
This is my favorite apartment, and I've watched all your videos. It's so small but so brilliant
One of your best designs . . . very small but still stylish without being white and boring. Love the office/TV pullout. So innovative.
One of the Best for sure
That is a fantastic apartment! I love the brilliant use of hidden storage spaces including that ingenious slide-out room divider unit for the TV and extra storage and I always love double-duty furniture that can transform (like that dining table) to serve as storage or can have different uses in the daytime versus as nighttime sleeping quarters.
The colour scheme and use of medium tone wood materials creates a very natural, inviting, warm, open, and airy space and the balcony with its wall garden expands the space while bringing the outside in.
Bravo to the designers! :)
One of the best small spaces I've seen. That yellow-paned shower might be my favourite thing. Everything works well and is clearly well-thought-out down to the last detail. Adequate natural light and so much versatility with the furniture and surfaces. Nicely executed!👌
BEAUTIFULLL I would definitely live here. I really really like it!
Fabulous! Finally! small space with Murphy bed! Also pullout tv stand with work space on the other side!!!. Bench to sit down on next to the entry! Decent sized kitchen! Love it!!!!❤
That's exactly what im looking for on this channel, maximizing the use out of a small space!
What a transformation. Great use of color. Lots of interesting furnishings and storage. The plants add to the coziness. Love to see what comes next from these guys.
I love seeing places that actually look like homes - where someone LIVES
This is a classic! One of the all time brilliant designs. I love all the multiple functions. This is one I'm going to replay a few times to properly digest all the fabulous ideas! Big congrats to the designers. G Ire🎉❤
Please let them know their English was really good and their efforts are appreciated!
Will do! We know they'll appreciate this, thank-you!
Thanks @LaineyBug2020! 🤩
YES finally! An amazingly designed small space. Absolutely blown away! It is so functional with great small living solutions. Good sized kitchen, the wall that slides out, the sofa that can also be rolled to that stunning balcony, the table with the hidden chairs. Genius. GENIUS ❤❤❤ Congrats to these designers!
This is one of my top 3 small spaces! Love the slide wall because i hate looking at a tv and tables/offices take up space when they are not used for very long
The seat of the chair seems very small because of the back part and does not seem ergonomic. The back could have been designed differently. The bed stays high when opened.
Quite high/raised beds are a thing in the Americas though, no? Although I agree that this one seemed almost like you'd need something to stand on to get up onto it.
Probably one of the more unique spaces I've seen on the channel
Que legal ver um video de SP no NTS. Sou fã do canal e seu projeto é fantástico, criativo e extremamente contemporâneo. Parabéns!
Lovely trick using the same tiling on the floor and walls, and that yellow shower! 💛
That slide-out section is brilliant. And I love that kitchen too. A beautiful apartment.
for someone as lazy as me I can barely walk up to kitchen to grab the chips, transforming furnitures is def a challenge.....
I feel you...got trauma sharing a bedroom with my sister, we had a pull-out bed (bottom was mine 😮💨): I had to slide out my bed every night, and store it in the morning.
Gorgeous! What a beautiful renovation with the green accents and clever storage options. These are by far my favourite types of apartments- small, beautiful, clean, functional and full of clever design.
Cara, finalmente! I've been watching this channel for a while and always wondered when they'd have something in Brazil as I'm originally from there and have seen so many small apartments that could use great interior design like this.
Love this one. Strong built in design in my view is key to getting the best out of small spaces and this one is a great showcase. The TV is brilliant and all the furniture is functional and attractive which makes the space homely v the clinical box.
Such amazing design and function. I love how they maximized vertical surfaces-- even on the patio! It's hard to believe how much versatility there is in such a small space.
It's well designed but a bit faulty at execution. The furniture seem too heavy, she struggled with pulling the bed and the wall unit. Need to rework those hydraulics to make it easier to pull, otherwise back pain in the long run for sure.
I love the colour scheme, it’s warm, inviting and organic
great, obstruct the view of the cute washing machine
True, I was a little miffed not to see the WM.
This one is brillant! I love this channel so much, it’s a huge source of inspiration and creativity! There is no limitations when we open our mind to solutions!
Nossa, que apartamento inteligente e maravilhoso!!
The designers are very creative when it comes to making multi-purpose and adaptable pieces for the home. They impress me every time!
Plus, I love their Brazilian accents...It reminds me of my dad's 😂❤🇧🇷
Looks great! The best part about this apartment is the living room area. Such a statement with the wood and natural lighting.
Impressive design. The fact that the space is multifunctional with the different components make the small space big.
I actually think this is wonderful for a studio apartment. It looks so much larger than it actually is. Beautiful colours also. Good job!
Each piece of flexible furniture is a masterpiece.
I like the main idea of constructing the custom furniture. The custom module with TV that hides in the wall is the greatest thing. I like this hiding piece so the most of the time the space could be free of everything.
respect for moving the kitchen and creating normal storage near the front door.
Best sliding furniture project so far, because unlike many others, the options aren't mutually exclusive
How gorgeous! After last week's obvious German Airbnb, this is such a breath of fresh air. That balcony
What a bocó comment. Last weeks video looked like a normal small apt to me. Just cause not everyone has a 20 sqmt shoe box that creates a workout room in a home, doesn’t mean the place is too generic. Never too small show how spaces of different (small) sizes work for the families/ person involved… They should not all comprise of just a bunch of built-in furniture…
@@gabrielaa.magalhaes1258 I think you misunderstand here - the last video was obviously an airbnb not because it lacked built-in solutions, but simply lacked storage that would allow anyone to live in it for more than a few days at a time. It looked lovely, but as far as inspiration for designing a small space goes, it really wasn't helpful for anyone who need a small space to be functional enough to live in. This one, on the other hand! Totally agree with the first commenter. This apartment design feels clever in a way the last one didn't because it answers way more challenges of living in a small space.
@@gabrielaa.magalhaes1258 how did you come to the conclusion I didn't like it because it didn't comprise of built-in furniture? That apartment was terrible because it was an obvious empty shell to put tourists in. Who even, other than you, mentioned a workout room? What even are you on about?
This is brilliant! Wow. Fantastic functional and also great looking solutions for this small space!!! Love it!
I love the concept of multi use furniture. Saves so much money.
Heaps of creative solutions all executed with the utmost elegance. Bravo!
I love that you are showing more alive spaces, the previous ones seemed too white to me. It's great to see some colour
It's beautiful and very clever, love the colours of the furniture. It all works well together.
The TV and desk pull out is genius. Bravo!!!
The only thing that could make it better would be for the tv to rotate 180 degrees so it is visible from the kitchen side as well.
Ingenious design and great we get to see the balcony as well, an important extension of the living space.
Beautifully designed. Ingenious ideas for versatility. ❤
Ai que orgulho ver minha vizinhança representada aqui!
I always say I could never live in a tiny space until I see something so beautifully and thoughtfully designed as this micro apt. The finishes are gorgeous and the convertible & moveable furniture is so smart. I never understood why so many small space dwellers don't make use of a murphy bed since it allows multiple uses for a small space. This one did so to great effect!
Bom ver profissionais brasileiros se destacando. Adorei o projeto, parabéns.
Amazing ideas! This is the type of content I'm here for! Loved it!
THE BUILT-INS!!!!!!! 😍🤩🥳
Great design! Compliments from Düsseldorf, Germany👍
Amazing!!! Very beautiful and functional!!
And I am specially haapy to see a brazilian project showcased in the channel!!!
Clever ideas and natural, cozy designs.
Favourite episode so far this year!!
The thoroughness of the design is evident with dignified gestures to separate or take advantage of the spaces, the changing social area is a clear example of articulating the home based on passive or active activities. An excellent work..
👏👏👏👏Parabens! Desenho lindo e inteligente!
adorei! muy creativa e ingeniosa la manera de crear nuevos espacios. muy bueno.
Wow, this tv forniture blows my mind, very genious
I like the slide out wall and would have taken it up to the ceiling to completely hide the kitchen and, in fact, I would probably never push it back into the wall. I don't like mirrored surfaces as the eyes can never rest.
I agree with everything said!
Glad to see Delia integrated a bit of Eastern European design with that table. They are very popular in EE homes.
Thanks!
That pull out TV unit is wild, so unexpected... I love it ❤
Well designed, beautiful and functional apartment. Thanks for sharing.
this apartment is a true work of art, hats off to the designers. this space fits everything that i've ever wanted in an apartment, and shows me that maybe not all murphy beds are bad. i love how interactive the space is. the partitioning effect of the television set, the colour scheme, the multipurpose use of every piece of furniture, the use of mirrors, etc. i am super impressed.
Maneiro, sempre bom ver a trabalhos locais!
this goes on my favourite list up there at the top. Love every part of it. Just need to find a matching piece of furniture to house my book collection and I would move right in. Love the slide out tv and I WANT that kitchen tiling in my kitchen right now.
Tenho assistindo os vídeos desse canal por anos e incrivelmente esse projeto do brasil virou o meu favorito.
Doma Arquitetura ficou no chinelo nesse projeto hem. Parabéns!
love that daybed on casters idea!!
I wish I had such a big window and terrace. The sliding tv is neat in principle, but at the end of the video it looks a bit wobbly as she's typing on her laptop, it's not ideal for working or meal prepping. I'd probably built it differently, like tv on one side and bookshelves on the other (I never see bookshelves in such projects) but it would turn out too thick I guess. Or a 180 degrees rotating tv, so you can watch it from different angles (while dining or while relaxing on the sofa). This would work with a narrower table though, and requires a more complicated cable management. Also those chairs don't look that comfortable if you look at her posture.
Very good ideas, especially the tv wall ! 👍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love this apartment, love the design, materials and a colors
This space is a third the size of the apartment I live in and yet it feels bright, airy and not at all cramped. True, it would probably only serve one person, two at most, but even so. Lovely use of colours and materials as well!
Beautifully designed, i love everything !
All the mobile furniture 😍
Choice of colours ❤
And
Layout
…. It’s just giving 🤌🏾
One of the things I liked the most about this small apartment is that it features a real person's kitchen, with spices and all the paraphernalia a cook might need easily accessible and in full display, instead of those hyper clean and minimalist kitchens that are functional only for architects.
I really like the concept "slide and fold" because we can adjust the space when we want to and how we want to. The space is so small but they really maximized everything in therms of funcionality and space. And the whole space has natural light which is really important.
Okey this one is really stunning. Small but with an absolut genius Design.
FINALLY a really small space that I could imagine living in.
Beautiful, exquisite design
It is like a tiny house in the inside. I love it. Such clever solutions, but although warm and cozy. Real smart design!!👍 Thanks for showing and greetings from Germany 😊
The kitchen redesign is perfect! Also, the option to put away the bed and entertainment pullout to free up floor space is practical and a very smart small space design feature. Those folding chairs look nice but do not look very comfortable. Also, that green color reminds me of a hospital exam room.
Amarelooo! que surpresa incrivel meu mano!
Beautiful appartment and I will also love to see a micro apartments designed to house families in the areas called Fabelas.
This is nice, creative and practical. Me likes.
It is a small space, but it looks very functional, intentional and relaxing. Probably one of the best designs for an apartment of this size.
What a brilliantly designed house!
Lots of people who are commenting may not be aware, but having this kind of furniture in Brazil is super expensive for locals... inviable for peasants, maybe ok for very high income people (or the ones willing to live on debt) 😂
