NEVER TOO SMALL Hong Kong City Escape Small Apartment -52sqm/559sqft

Set on the 31st floor of a modern high rise, Desmond Wong meticulously designed his apartment to feel like a sanctuary amidst the bustling sounds of Hong Kong. A neutral palette, sheer curtains and raised furniture create a sense of lightness; along with arched doorways that soften the edges and bring a harmonious feeling to the space. The clever use of textured wallpaper in a similar colour to the walls introduces a sense of earthiness in the space and full length patina mirrors on the wardrobe doors soften the reflective light from the buildings outside.

"home is a manifestation of ones habits and needs" was a great quote!

[Gabby-ukix]

The fact that this guy isn’t a designer is what gets me. This is absolutely stunning!

[Marysehd]

Am I the only one obsessed with the arched doorways 😍😍😍

[ReglasdeOro]

I love how this guy isn’t a designer but he gives really logical and straightforward tips that actually make sense.

Anyone else follow this channel to get a sense of calm? Relaxes the eyes and soothes the ears.

The arched doors are genius. They make an otherwise boring box into a classic space.

It's so interesting what colour pallets evoke in us. How neautral tones don't overwhelm us, how the colour red we apparently associate with food. I feel calm in this apartment.

"home - is a manifestation of one's habits and needs.

It is important, to examine how you live, what works & doesn't work for you, prior to the design process.

It's only after this examination, that you can really incorporate meaningful solutions & design ideas into your space."

so true! loved it!

[Steinchen]

I was already convinced when half the apartment wasn't covered in plywood but damn that arch is beautiful

[bearnosaur]

He says he's not a "designer" but this, to me, is a pretty masterful design. I hope he can design more spaces that we can enjoy in the future!

This is NOT SMALL in HK, it's humongous!

[marybethmorrison]

I feel like I just took an entire design/decor course in 7.5 minutes... 🤯🤯🤯

him: "i'm not a designer"
apartment: fully snatched

[oddanneout]

“I’m not a designer” Oh honey, YES YOU ARE!

[angelamozmendoza]

The colors were calming. Perfect for a busy city

[kuba-xpmq]

Strangely the interior gave me a sense of nostalgia, it has this 50 60s feeling of old Hong Kong.

[nixxipixxi]

That is the best way to hide an air conditioner! Genius

I love the way this guy is talking and explaining. I felt like I took a short class :)

[tallulahbeaverhausen]

By many international standards, 52 m² are not small.
And when you keep in mind a part of Hong Kong's population lives in closets and cages (do your research if you don't believe me), you can call this apartment a mansion.
That said, it is a nice interior.

this is THE PRETTIEST apartment i've ever seen! i'm in love! i would absolutely adore living in a place like this.
