NEVER TOO SMALL Furniture Designer’s Small Barcelona Apartment - 44sqm/484sqf

Показать описание

One of 6 small houses located inside a 19th Century villa in a peaceful neighborhood of Barcelona, owners Max and Diana removed several dividing walls of the apartment, keeping only one between the bedroom and living room, creating an open and functional space divided by custom built-in multifunctional furniture in muted yellow and gray. A unique bookshelf divides the entrance from the rest of the house, whilst a low joinery unit spanning the length of the left wall provides plenty of hidden storage and displays their collection of eclectic objects. This flows into the living room where a seamless furniture unit combines a sofa and dining table with a collapsible counter. On the opposite wall a desk is cleverly integrated into the kitchen joinery which also extends under the stairs to house the fridge, oven and laundry. The addition of an enclosed glass outdoor area, leading to a rooftop terrace, extends the living area and brings the outside into the villa all year round.

This is one is one of my favorites. The color palette, the rooftop terrace, THE AMOUNT OF PERSONALITY IN ALL THEIR AMAZING THINGS THAT THEY'VE COLLECTED. This is proof that you can still live small and don't have to be a minimalist.

Love seeing a NON-minimalist version on Never Too Small. A home without art, collections and a little clutter would feel like living in a hospital. Very well done!

Absolutely love this home. The colors, design layout, furniture, storage, & the rooftop terrace. Perfect.

This is one of my favourite designs. It feels like a lived in home, cosy and practical, while at the same time it's also very creative, colourful and stylish. I love how they've opened up the living space to make it feel so roomy. I live in a similar sized rented apartment and the space is lost to lots of narrow corridors and small rooms. I'd love to live in an apartment like this one. It feels rejuvenating. And I absolutely love their dog!

I would have put the office by the stairs, and kept everything to do with the kitchen on that one wall. The area by the stairs had much better lighting than where the office was placed. The small wall also provides a bit of privacy to whom ever is working, and allows other people to use the kitchen and living room without disturbing "työrauha". Apparently there is no translation for työrauha (it's Finnish), but työ=work rauha=peace, and I don't know how else to put it..

"We share our home with our dog" is such a cute way of saying it. I love this one, I like that it feels lived in, and like they really do make use of the space, it doesn't feel like certain features are really a nuisance to them. I just wish they would've explained the chair on the wall😂

I will be watching this a few more times. The couple are creative not just in their home's design but also in their interior decorating. In a small space instead of eliminating things, it's like a gallery of their personality. I was surprised how many beautiful chairs they could fit in there but also their collection of scissors! I love a good pair of scissors.

This is fabulous. One of the better ones. That skylight over the shower. That sofa/counter unit. ALL THAT STORAGE. The outdoor space. THE ROOFTOP GARDEN.

I love the colors! The scissors collection was kind of unexpected, it made me laugh. Amazing space!

Love this, but I wouldn’t like my bathroom so open in my bedroom.

Loved how it showed cupboards really conceal things, makes the room cleaner looking. I’m going to have wall to wall cupboards everywhere in my next build.

I also agree with some others that the oven area and the study could have been swapped.

Honestly, I'm not too sure about this being "small", but wow, this home has so much personality 😍 I especially like how the palette looks muted but still colorful. Definitely will be using this as an inspiration for my dream home XD

I cannot believe how well-designed this apartment is. The fact that it doesn't have a bunch of contraptions that you have to fold out and then unfold throughout the day gives the space a feeling of permanence and comfort. The interior design is also gorgeous and compliments the architecture perfectly.

Dog is so cute most of all.
This place is quite bigger than before, but I really like this video. It has many windows so that they can feel sunlight. And bright wall colors make room larger. Sky blue and butter colors are such nice choices.

The homeowners are quite sophisticated in their knowledge of the history of design. They have an impressive collection of designed objects, including icons from Bauhaus to Memphis.

Stunning interior space, but that terrace and the glassed in patio are chef’s kiss perfection.

Beautiful use of space. I could never imagine living in 44sqm until I watched this video. The house lacked for nothing and that rooftop terrace was magnificent (especially for Barcelona).

definitely one of my favourite tiny home ever. it managed to display a lot of personality without being overcluttered, but also doesn't have to resort to minimalism. loove it 🖤
