    love this space! literally my only gripe with these videos is I wish you'd show the homes at night time, so we could experience the interior lighting design.

      I think they only have a certain time frame to film these videos. They have to also take into account the owners and architects when planning the shoot. I can imagine that it is therefore not always possible to stay until the evening to film if the shoot is in the morning, for example. At best, you could ask the homeowners to do the filming themselves in the evening.

      I believe this has a lot to do with these being residential homes. Imagine coming home from work and your kids getting home from school. You’re trying to unwind while your kids are trying to do homework. Then having to make dinner and amongst other chores you may have for the day. The last thing you may want to give up the few hours you may have before going to bed to people coming in and filming your home. Of course this exact scenario may not be everyone’s situation but you can assume most people would still like to have their home to themselves in the evening. Maybe one of these days someone will suggest their home being filmed at night.

      I commented something very similar. Nothing "clever" or hidden or modular. Just fantastic use of a space to create a real, livable apartment, with furniture that looks like it would actually be comfortable to use. This is easily my favourite space from this channel for those reasons. I could see myself living here...too often that isn't the case.

      That moment changes the whole tone of the video. At first it looked like just another video with the guys describing the apartment but after that you can hear them loosen up a bit on the script, one of them even responds to something the other says at one point. You can tell how proud they are of this one. And the deposit at the end! They even showed us the least glamorous part of the house, reminding us what a real, lived-in home feels like. Enhorabuena!

    This multifunctional apartment in Seville is a masterclass in versatile design, showcasing how creativity can transform limited space into a dynamic living environment. From the innovative use of sliding partitions to the multipurpose furniture solutions, every element serves a dual purpose, maximizing functionality without compromising style. The infusion of Spanish aesthetics adds warmth and character, creating a cozy retreat within the bustling city. Despite its modest size, the apartment feels spacious and inviting, offering a flexible layout that adapts to the needs of its occupants. Truly inspiring to see architecture and design merge so seamlessly to create a harmonious living space.

    @Terri_MacKay 8 місяців тому +1

    I love reading the comments on this channel because I learn so much about people. Im always interested in reading the comments from people who love a space that didn't appeal to me at all, and vice versa.
    This space is, by far, my favourite from this channel. I wouldn't change a single thing. It doesn't try to get "clever" with space, or disguise or hide something. I use my kitchen throughout the day, so the kitchens that are hidden behind curtains or cupboard doors never appeal to me. I love this kitchen. It's bright and airy, and incorpoates both eating areas into it. Love the open living room, the simple bedroom with all the storage in one place, and the bathroom with those gorgeous blue tiles. I normally hate curtains being used to define a space, but the way that the curtains here are completely hidden when not in use is very smart. I even love the colour of the sofa, as well as the pops of orange and yellow that are used throughout the main space, as they are 2 of my favourite colours. Love the windows, love the balcony. I just love it all!! 🧡💛
    Edit...it looks like everyone who loves this space loves it for the same reasons I do. It looks like a comfortable, practical, liveable, and beautiful home. A home made to be lived in, not looked at.

I also love how the three square windows in the apartment are aligned and one can see through the bedroom window through the kitchen window and the front window all the way to the the building across the street. I don't think I've ever seen anything exactly like this before. It's a very cool feature of this apartment.

  • @16demolka
    @16demolka 8 місяців тому +5

    I love this one! One thing I learned watching NTS videos and reading NTS book is that it’s so easy to design a space with 4-6 windows. Where I live (Warsaw, Poland) in new buildings you usually have rectangular apartments with just 2 windows in 1bedroom apartment (2 bedrooms-3windows and so on), if you’re lucky maybe you have also 3rd window by the kitchen. What drives me crazy is 70-80m2 apartments with only 3 windows so there is no space for creativity in redesigning. And of course no window in the bathroom (I’m so lucky I currently have one) while the majority of apartments on NTS have them). And don’t even get me started on the prices for these boring and not functional apartments!

I like the way the kitchen is made with the bench, the « pantry feeling » where you can’t see the mess from the living room, the floor to ceiling cabinets, and the extension into the balcony. The quartz on the kitchen island seems easy to clean, and love the wood comes from local sources. Super interesting office/guest bed with curtains/yoga space.
