    I absolutely love this tipe of content, sometimes it can be hard to deal with smaller spaces and decor in our homes, maybe we have the general idea of what we want but at the end struggling with the overall look and feeling of the space. So thank you, I enjoy it very much. Greetings from Mexico city.

    • @HuyenBabyy

      Agreed, I’m renting studio apartment too and struggling to make the place look bigger than it actually is. Always feel stuffy even though I’m minimalist (I think)😅

    @shao-yuwang1440 Před 10 měsíci +1

    Hey Reynard, since you’re also sort of into minimalism as well, I would love to hear your thoughts on some unconventional designs, such as floor desk, sofa-less living area/floor seating, and layout ideas for using the same screen for work and entertainment.

  • @samantham4351
    @samantham4351 Před 4 měsíci

    IMO, the following you’ll gain doing this dilemma series will be huge as it’s an untapped genre on CZcams, you’ve chosen to do the thing other interior designers refuse which is normal small space homes & solutions. An untapped market as a good portion of the world live in small spaces these days. Go forth and prosper, fellow Aussie. ☮️

    For the dining nook would you consider curtains or blinds for the window coverings?

    • @reynardlowell
      @reynardlowell  Před 10 měsíci +2

      Both can work well depending on light requirement and how the space is used. Great news is there's an indent to install blinds so they can be relatively hidden, and also extra wall space left and right of window to draw out curtains. Maybe even do both :D

    Awesome episode, do you have got some videos about heights of decorations. At the last project you said something about setting up a lamp to create different heights. I understand the concept but at the same time I feel that this is something with what I'm struggling in my own appartment, I have got feeling that your eyes are always drown torwords ground. (I'm into modern minimalism with scandi/japandi elements) Can you explain more? ❤️

    Reynard, how and where do you choose the plants you like to use in your work?

    • @reynardlowell
      @reynardlowell  Před 10 měsíci

      Usually I'll determine the placement and amount of light first to narrow down the options (a tall snake plant would look a bit silly on a dining table when you want to have conversation for example). Then source them from local nurseries or garden centers.
