Ep 36 — A Micro Apartment with counter bar 🏠🥃 - 17.05sqm / 183.5sqft

Frankly, without doubt one of the most beautiful apartments among those you have visited. Even with your desk, you still have space. Indeed, the rent took that into account.

okay, I took notes. So much to say about this apartment! I love the wooden paneling (warmth feel) with the marble which makes it look expensive. The washer is hidden in the bathroom next to the sink. I think it may be too small for you but I was pleased to see it. You got a check for the toilet paper holder and a shoe shelf. There is a mini fridge. I'm not sure how much cooking and leftovers you have when it's only one person, but I think that it is a plus for you. I like the larger kitchenette in like the same dark wood. The bed can go in the partitioned room with the window. Desk and chair at the other window. I was pleased to see that you thought it would look good there as well. Open closet to put your extra clothes in, hooks for your coats and umbrella, Price seems a little steep though. You've seen cheaper but this is my new favorite. The search continues.

Usui San, if you are ok with the rent then I think this apartment would suit your needs more than the other mini apartment we saw a couple of episodes ago. It’s close to the main district by train and you have a private sleeping space. However a few things crossed my mind. First off, the open wardrobe next to the kitchenette means if you decide to cook, your clothes will smell of food 😅. Secondly, if you plan on bringing your current washer dryer then there’s no space for it 😢. You’ll have to make do with the small washing machine provided in the toilet. However the flat in it self has a nice energy. Also I would arrange the desk and chair on the opposite wall as you would get more sunlight there 🙂☀️

Usui-san this is one of the nicest apartments yet. I could see myself living here! Plenty of toilet paper storage and there's even a refrigerator with a freezer! 🤗 The only thing I would change would be to add doors (opening or sliding) on to the closet. Other than that it's perfect ❤❤

One of the best so far. Put a tension blind to cover the closet. Put back of office chair to wall, desk in front of it, guest chair on other side. Put sofa-bed facing window, emergency ladder in front of window in a chest that doubles as a table. Lots of possibilities!

Hotel feeling. Masculine colours. Pricey because of the location and the appliances (washer, mini fridge-freezer, tv). Top quality shade, made to measure furniture. 7/10

Apartment is good! One room for bed, one living room for Work desk. At least you don't have to use a ladder to climb up and down which can be dangerous.

I really love this one, maybe because it is small and not "micro". I love the privacy of the bathroom facilities and that the fridge is there along with a washer. I really think being able to partition off the sleeping area is great. All around best choice!

Open closet 10 cm next to the cooking stove. GENIUS!

Yay! Finally, frosted glass on the bathroom door! 😁 The hidden washing machine and fridge are cool too.

Smart design👌👌👌 nice nook to keep keys, specs etc as soon as one enters . The kitchenette with storage, curved shelf, hidden washing machine in bathroom.... what's not to love? And a separate sleeping place !!!!! Absolutely awesome👌👌👌love the food and glimpses of camellia. Another beautiful video Usui-san❤❤❤

Usui, this the best apartment I’ve seen on your channel. I would live there if I could. That place has a lot of character with the wood. I think I would put a small Murphy bed in the bedroom, so I could put a chair in the room to enjoy the television. I would put a desk, recliner, and a folding dinner table with chairs in the living room. 😊

This apartment looks very nice. Space, Storage, good bathroom. The movable wall gives it a special touch. I really like it. But there is one thing, that looked even better... your lunch. 🤩

This is a well designed and pleasing apartment where you could relax and enjoy the extra space. Great to have a separate bedroom area and toilet paper storage! Sadly, the rent is higher than the smaller places. It is for you to decide on the budget. Good Luck in your quest Usui-san and Spider-Man 😊

My dear Usui, as each feature of the living space was introduced, I became more and more pleased with this layout. It is very well planned. Having the washing machine located in the bath area will reduce the noise and create a more comfortable environment. Having ample storage for shoes at the entrance, a refrigerator and additional shelves for food storage is a very nice feature and having a partitioned space for sleeping would allow for some entertaining opportunities with friends 😉

This one lived up to the preview! I like it quite a bit. My only 🤔 is the washing machine, which seems small and awkwardly placed. Re: furniture, I would maybe put a bed in the inner space, if there's room, and put the desk in the partitioned space that has more direct light. Just seems nicer for working!

It's okay. I'm a child of the 70's so I like wood, but prefer real wood to obvious laminate. I like the bath with washer, and the kitchenette with nice-sized fridge. It's the placement of some of the installations that boggles me. With that large entryway, I'd have included the closet there with the shoe box, so there'd be room in the kitchen area for more storage like shelving.Also, I'd have put the tv counter in the living room area so there'd be room in the bedroom area for a dresser/closet or desk so that living room could have an actual separate dining area. It's unfortunate so much is clearly mounted and unmovable. I'd also take out the sliding doors and hang a softer partition that allows for light to flow through.

Logical layout! I can see the benefit of separating shower and toilet, but in a small apartement it's better to just have one door to the whole "bathroom". Very nice window! I could wish for some trees or greenery in the view, but I guess it's very central location? and it's not that much trees usually in the very centre if big cities. But you could see the sky which gives an airy feeling🙂

8:16 I also would place the bed in the separated room. I would place a small bookshelf parallel to the sliding wall between the separate room and the living room/kitchen. I would a desk where you placed it and beside the desk or at the other wall I would place a small sofa or soft chair for relaxing. In the entrance I would place a small shelf for things and the emergency ladder I would place above the shoe rack or on top of the kitchen corner. It does not burn every day. 😂 I also would place a green plant somewhere. I want to move in there!

LOVE this! So much room, seperate areas, love how bedroom can be closed off. More storage room and more room for prepping food to cook. I would take this one! 👍
