We come from the future.

Imagine coming home super drunk and trying to get around this place and into bed...

[JacoxNovak]

I love it! However many people live in a small space, because they dont have money... this seems expensive :/ but a very nice inspiration nevertheless!

[newyorkdiscoveries]

Sure small apartment = low rent, but to buy and install of these gadgets would cost me a fortune!

[ivanahanaivana]

That Goliath table is a brilliant idea. Simple&efficient. Love that.

[ballwizz]

For the amount of money you spend for all that extra custom-made stuff you could have just gotten a bigger place.

[bigthis]

I love how the shiiter becomes a 'private room'!

[etamlous]

All of this looks cute and functional but when you start living you'll get tired of constantly shuffling walls, and cabinets, beds and tables. The kitchen is functional only for a yuppie who will be eating out and not cooking in the apartment. Anyone who has even done light cooking will know how the heat and smells of fried oils can overwhelm a room. And that flip down bed will fall apart if you try to hook up on it.

[eternapesadilla]

Even though im 100% onboard with this. Truth is its way more confortable living in a large space where everything is at hand and all you have to do is walk there, not make it.

[LordMatria]

The point of living in a tiny apartment is to live cheap, the way to make that work is by applying minimalism to the way you use the space, not by tucking everything away. This apartment cancels out both of those means/ends, since it isn't a tiny apartment compared to others in NYC and it isn't minimal

[rokhamler]

You just have to waste at least 30 minutes - cleaning, putting things away, unprepping and then prepping each room "mode" any time you need to do anything you weren't doing previously. This looks great on camera but you would burn out on it within a year. Just because you can squeeze a lot of functions into a small living space doesn't make it automatically more functional if you constantly have to do more busy work besides regular chores. It ceases to function as a LIVING space and you will pay throught the nose for this.

Anyone else think this is actually a huge apartment? Like come on America

[JPBXL]

This is probably the best tiny apartment Ive seen so far. There is no detail missing. Just love it.

[ezekielpeppers]

1:18 he has a book called how to be black

[jeankee]

I like it but the bathroom makes me claustrophobic :(

[hipatiadealejandria]

It is a prototype. If it were produced in mass certainly the cost of all the ingenius but expensive gadgets may become more affordable.

[JustGotHeated]

“I love the stand up desk.”

*immediately grabs a chair next scene

[ladydusk]

Lol this is probably for when millionaire hipsters decide to go slumming. I'll bet the cost would be prohibitive for anyone who is actually on a budget.

[adamaylikeamonth]

I love the apartment but this music is so annoying

[icey]

Saw that book! " how to be black"

[timmason]

"You can see behind closed doors I'm a bit of a mess"
*opens a cabinet door to reveal a cabinet more organized than than anything I've owned in my life*
