A+!!! Very creative and affordable!!! Amazing outcome
The first I noticed was the glossy horizontal stripe painted wall. That’s exactly what I want to do in my condo! Great job on decorating! You’ve surrounded yourself with things that make this your home! Thanks for the tour. (Love that you scored a ‘famous’ couch on Craig’s list)
Great condo!! Definitely has a cool urban vibe!! Colors are great.
The sofa and the shelves are the biggest deal. 2 thumbs up guys 😍
Gay men always have good taste
Love it! It looks cozy and relaxed. It’s the kind of home I’d love coming home to after a long and hard day from work!
“Condo sized furniture feels hokey and rinkey dink”
…as a result his space looks and feels cramped.
There's a lot of things and the space is small but somehow everything works well together. And the black and white pictures add something special
I look at this space and the only thing I want to do is to get half of the stuff and give it away, too small and too busy, additionally, I don't like his decor style, the dining table is so close to the counter. Ughrrrr
I like the male aspect on designing it's more my style and that's because I'm a man who is tired of flowers and granny looking styles in most female design.
ewww its a gay apartment. They fuck eachother in the ass eeeuuugh
On point ☝🏽
Uh, 108th dislike is mine.
Loved it! Great job, looks like a place where you and your partner can really be happy and relaxed! Enjoy!!!
Hello. My boyfriend and I have just moved into our studio apartment. I love your video; very informative! The apartment is very cozy and functional which is more less the theme we invision. Please tell me how you made that horizontal striped wall. Which paint did you use? How did you measure the strips and make them straight? I would like our bedroom wall to have the same exact look.
I LOVE EVERYTHING!!! curious to see how the bedroom was designed and furnished!
Color is everything. i love talking about it on my blog
everything i perfect, it fits the owner really well
The colors bursts of oranges, browns ( both dark to light tans) compliments the cool colors of blues, greys and greens with a touches here and there of yellow makes this condo a eye candy show room, but not.
There is overkill of to much furniture in a limited space. Let's start with that giant ottoman which should be in a larger room with a fluffy thicker sofa. That ottoman is a sofa in its own right, because it's as long and wider in its seating then the sofa. It would look much better pushed the long way against the front of the window, leaving room for a large but not over the top coffee table like that breakfast table top. All it needs is a lower base to,sit the table top on in front of that sofa and ottoman and push the 2 straight back cushion chairs just a little closer to the center of the room near the new coffee table, then stack those small children size table chairs in the closet and buy 3 comfortable adult size metal bar stools with cushion seats for the breakfast bar, bam!
Now you got walking space as well as a balance of seating space, No sideways scoop walking only to turn around to ajust the knickknacks your hips might have moved or knocked down.
When you have a small apt size space that has a breakfast bar it makes no sense to have 2 tables and 3 or 4 chairs when you got a bar table.
It used to be only in large house living rooms or large lofts with living rooms that shared opened spaces with wide open kitchens that you put a dinning table inspite of the fact that the kitchen had a dining bar with stools.
The table is to fill up large spaces.

its a weird space but some how it works therefor i like it..
love that many things come from craigslist
Love it! Looks like a million bucks.
I love everything in that room!
But to be honest it's not that small for two people! They also have a tiny hallway and a bedroom which we can see at the end of the video
I love it!
Love this space!!! Where did you get the great end table that sits between the couch and the curtains? Open an functional!!!

Great touches!
The room is tastefully decorated. I appreciate the charm of simplicity of the furniture, a good palette of colours, however there is too much bric-a-brac. Very good value for money from a practical point of view. The only thing that doesn't look impressive is a dreadful nylon floor. The carpet tiles are visibly a very low quality.
i like this space a lot. these days so many people talk about minimalism and less is more which can get boring and repetitive. this place however has function and personality and I would be very happy to live in a place like this.
I 100% agree with most of the other posts…too much stuff in that small space. Not sure why he crammed that cafe table in the condo. Should've just omitted that and put some bar stools up to the counter. There are a lot chairs! 5 chairs and for what??? Pull those out when u do have a party. OH!! One more thing…I thought Craigslist was where u go for a deal. A $900 sofa could've been bought in the store brand new!
I think it's really nice…and it feels cozy!
I love this space, and I don't think it's too much (at least not for me). I want the things I love to be around me. The one time I had to live in a minimalist space, I had to be treated for depression.
Great! But I think there's a lot of chairs.
wow,
