3 Interior Designers Transform The Same Outdated 90's Kitchen | Space Savers | Architectural Digest

We gave interior designers Noz Nozawa, Darren Jett, and Joy Moyler a photo of the same kitchen - then asked each of them to create a design for it in their particular style, however they pleased. Three artists, one canvas, each bringing something different to the space. Watch and see which designer checks the most boxes on your dream kitchen wish list.

Darren's design kind of looks like a classical painting, really theatrical and romantic. Noz one reminds me of a colourful toy house and Joy's design looks really functional, universal and modern

[alittleblawg]

Darren’s design breaks boundaries and is so eye opening in just how malleable rooms can be

[killiangreen]

Arch Digest you've hit a gold mine with this series. Please continue

[ML-fnwo]

Darren's concepts are next level. Always excited to see what he comes up with. He's a bit of a trailblazer for sure.

[spiritualcosmeticss]

Joy’s is the most relatable, useable, down to earth kitchen. Darren’s is giving multi million dollar mansion vibes. And Noz’s whimsical design style seems like it would great in a video game.

[Haru_ExquisiteBoxer]

I would hire Darren personally. I think he has got more eyes into 3 dimensional spacial Architectural design.

[totallytourist]

Darren is a clear winner for me. I like to imagine that after 20yrs in this house you would be sick of the boring kitchen and his gives the feeling that you are finally living your best life and you suddenly want to invite friends over for the 1st time since the kids moved out.

[valxria]

I would love Darren's kitchen design in my own space, it has this "fancy restaurant" feeling where it's very intimate and elevated

[LM_]

I am loving this series. All 3 of them are incredibly talented and it's so fun seeing the different perspectives and design approaches to the same space. Good job!

[JaahnaviS]

omg I loveee Noz's vibe, she's so sweet. Style-wise, Darren was making me gasp in each segment, like all my kitchen fantasies I didn't even know I had are check-marked. I'm taking inspiration from his design for my own home.

[-shreetdave]

Noz has a cool all out approach which works for this "no client" format really well, I'm sure it'd tone down to some level of maturity once a client is introduced in her process. I already wrote in one of the other videos that the only way you get good and actually usable spaces out of Noz and Darren is stopping them midway in their process when the room looks complete cuz it screams "Overworked"

[Katsyay]

I LOVE this series. I love the completely different approaches each designer takes. It is so fascinating.

[GWang]

Darren’s design is on another level! I die after seeing those windows! Designer can really work like magician 😍

[abominablyawsm]

You can always see how inspired Darren is by earlier eras. His work always has a 60s/70s super luxe rich bachelor feel.

I always love at least 75% of Noz's designs. This time I was into everything but the island, table and chairs, as the swirly paint on the walls. I absolutely love that backsplash and the lighting fixtures are so fun!

[itsluarcos]

you can tell darren is an architect because his designs are just incredible! the way he envisions the atmosphere he wants and is able to transmit it to the space is outstanding

[missdrey]

Darren's kitchen absolutely won this one. The windows and the ceiling, that stunning island/dinner table. Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I'm stunned❤

[AmandaMcCarterWrites]

I love Noz's design. It's funky, it's bright, it's colorful. This is a kitchen I would feel at home in.
Joy's is very traditional and cozy.
Darren's feels like a loft apartment in a downtown warehouse. Elegant.

[LalaRu-AmbisDyosa]

Darren’s Design is something that we all want but we can’t afford.
Noz’s Designed is fun and colorful with just a perfect contrast. It’s it’s something a girly girl would love.
Joy’s meanwhile Design is just the perfect homie, cozy and realistic design. It’s something that reminds you of a family’s gathering space.

Above all. I still would really love to have Darrens’s design. It’s a dream!!

[Sesameseedss]

the idea of a sofa in a kitchen is insane, i love it

[ulliquarahyuga]

I don’t think I’d want any of these, but if Joy worked with one of the other to (to reel them in a little😅) i think they’d make something perfect for me
