She says "sail away in your own boat" and I get a cruise ad. lol
I can see one small problem with an area rug that too closely matches the floor color. As one gets older, and one's vision gets worse, it gets harder to distinguish between the rug and the floor. And the rug can become a trip hazard.
Thank you very much. Greetings from germany. My last problem is solved. Friends always ask who furnished your apartment? I answer: "Lisa Holt". The world is a village. All the best to you from my heart!
You are so welcome, Gabriela!
Thank you! I painted my bedroom (envelope) in one color and it looks and feels fine. Besides having to use smaller nighstands. I believe the declutterings of things seen and unseen certainly affects the aesthetics. Still working on decluttering books, magazines, etc. I like your humor, and it makes seeing your videos a pleasure.
Wow! Thanks Millie! There's lots more of things like this in my new design site as well….you should shake it out DEZIGNSPACE.COM
Thank you for showing even dark small spaces and how they can look so much larger when the entire "envelope" is the same color. Great examples. It helps us visualize. Saw something I actually may consider getting. Back in the day, before furniture makers got serious about people living in small homes (even old city rowhouses), I know folks who went to boat supply places that sold furniture and other household items for houseboats (and later motor homes), so they'd have smaller things at home, leaving space for people. NOW YOU MUST ADDRESS why folks in suburbia often have small dogs and city dwellers, big ones!
The dogs, lol, so true. Massive dogs in tiny homes…I don’t get it.
That’s a brilliant idea about looking for houseboat/ RV furniture. Thanks for the suggestion!
@@squalloogal Big dogs make sense when there is a security aspect. City dwellers with big dogs like big dogs, and also like feeling safe. Small dogs - often less "play" time, or more restricted areas inside the house; little or no security concerns except barking. Many suburban folks like their labradors and Retrievers/setters as they are good family dogs and good with kids when properly socialized. Women with purse dogs? Sigh. I guess a replacement for kids.
ah ah ah...dear Ms Lisa,
you are such one and unique of a kind !!
Fastforwarding your voice for info matters....is SO funny (and not bothering us with the details), thank you so much! (for your lovely humour!!! ;)
We just moved in a studio...after living in a 4-bedroom house!! (OMG! we did! and we love it...) Therefore, your video and advice are
SO PRECIOUS!
(mirror! huge art work! shelf above a door, same colour palet for a rug.....so guuuuud! :)
I took good notes....a million times: thank you Ms Lisa!!!
helene :))
Yay Helen! I'm so glad you found this helpful, I have four more additional small space videos on my channel. You could check out as well. Thanks so much for being a subscriber!
@@LisaHoltDesign 💖
Liking this format better than the long drawn out videos
We hear ya! There's going to be tons more, so keep your notifications bell on! :-)
Looking forward to it. Small spaces can be awkward to decorate properly.
That’s some really cool ideas to even use for like my house I have 7-8 rooms that make up my home none of them are large. It’s an older home so they weren’t made to have big bedrooms, so I have problems with the scale of what furniture is today and the size of my rooms they begin to feel crowded and cluttered, so these were some really good ideas that I could implement! The fact that you just solidified the fact of my one color walls floors ceilings well I’m already doing that because for me it made my room look bigger so I’m glad I’m doing something right lol! Thanks Lisa for always giving us tips and tricks!
That was a super fun video if I don't say myself!
Thanks again!
Great ideas! Thank you.
You are so welcome!
Moving into a studio size tiny home on wheels.. thank you for your hacks!
Great! Don't miss the other videos. I've got on small spaces in my channel, and there's lots more to come!
Gosh this girl is so pretty and smart too...
Wow! Thanks so much for joining my channel!
@@LisaHoltDesign your advice is brilliant. I made the error of using metro tiles in small bathroom with grey grout but corrected this to the 24"x24" for both en-suites and wetroom and it looks much better.
The issue with the smaller tiles is you're guaranteed to get slither cuts somewhere!
I'll send some pics to you?
Keep up the good work, I'm a fan in every sense.

Great hacks. The studio hack was really clever.
Very informative and enjoyable as always❤
Lived in small spaces for a long time. Carry a tape measure when shopping.
Excited to see this!
Enjoyed your video, thank you! 😊 Watched your video again; want to remember for my studio apt.
You are so welcome!
I love not only your design ideas, but your energy and passion for what you do!
Wow, thank you! 🥰
Had a ground level open studio apt in 70s used a king sheet as divider for a bedroom space. Look at RV storage options also
Great idea! Keep your notifications bell on, I've got some really interesting van life and tiny home videos planned!
Honey! I need to send you pics of my old studio rental any little house I currently own. You'd love them!!!!! Your advice is spot on, always!
Please do! ☺️
Yes! Thanks for validating the area rug / floor idea. I avoid area rugs if at all possible, or use a color that closely matches the floor. Family keeps trying to push rugs on me 🤮
Love it Lisa - makes me feel like I’d be great in a studio - with your tips it would be huge ❤👏🏽👏🏽🇬🇧
Your content is always so great. I have learned so much from you and have been able to decorate my son’s apartment so that it is functional and attractive. He loves it. He purchased a few high quality furniture pieces, large art, nice lamps. Colorful and cozy. Couldn’t have done it without listening to Lisa! Thank you.
How exciting. That’s excellent to hear. 😊 Lisa is amazingly helpful and flexible.
That's so fantastic to hear! I am here to help you guys answer all your questions…
Love your ideas. So true about focal point
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing this information!
Glad it was helpful!
Area rugs that match the floor? Brilliant! I had never thought of that before seeing your video. I have two fairly small guest rooms that will be remodeled soon, and I really wanted rugs in there for comfort and warmth. I have already bought the flooring, so now I can shop for the right rugs! Thank you!
That is awesome! IF you'e doing that kind of remodeling, are you already part of the Dezignclub? It's packed with great insider info to help you save money and get your questions answered and ultimately, get spaces that you love! Check it out…www.dezignclub.com
Lisa, I love all the perfect examples you and your team come up with!
I like how I’m seeing this AFTER doing box trim green and the upper half white In my small twin house 😂
Isn’t it always the way ☺️
I have used the extremely large art to expand my 8' x 9' dining room. It really works!
I LOVE you!! Thank you for your inspiration!!!
I live in a small space - your tips are excellent.
Oooh can't wait Lisa!🙏🏻🫶👌🏻
Lisa is the G.O.A.T.!!
Once again you never fail in your wonderful way of teaching people how to represent their home or apartment and sometimes one doesn’t even need to spend a lot of money ❤❤thank you for your service 👏
SO, SO, SO TRUE! Thank you, Theresa!
Vertical space and maximizing the flooring space. Good tips!
Glad you liked it!
Wow! Just WoW!
You are right about monochromatic making space seem larger. I just moved into a 2 bed, 1 bath 964 sq. ft. condo. I love color and have antiques. I have dark laminate floors and popcorn ceiling. I'm not painting the walls to match dark laminate or popcorn. I chose an off white blue in eggshell that picks up blue greys in my rose and green antique couch and chairs. I did paint doors and trim same color in semi-gloss. Love it! I will live with my living room looking smaller, with too much furniture and maximalist decor. You have to go with what you love. Also the sliding glass door in the living room facing the green space beyond opens it somewhat. Everyone who has come in seems genuinely wowed. Follow your passion, folks.
Yep! You've got it!
I totally agree with you I live in a 500 ft² apartment and I have big antiques and a big couch the thing is you can put big furniture in a place the thing is don't put too much of it so smaller furniture can make small spaces look even smaller and I do not choose to live in a white Box either
Nice video and nice alphorns😂. Greetings from switzerland 👋🏻
Glad you like them!
You are spot on.
A great big thank you. You confirmed some of the decisions that I have made. I am working with a long very narrow living space. Will be painting everything white, and will use a 120 inch sofa, and an accent chair. I will skip the rug. Creating a 4 x 5 textured art canvas. Before purchasing the furniture I will map it out with painters tape on the floor.This channel is very helpful, and you are a design genius!
YAY! SUPER HAPPY this video helped you, Belinda! - G
I feel like my pet peeve with small spaces is when people try to make them look bigger. *Bigger. Is. Not. Always. Better.* Small spaces offer opportunities that larger ones don't. You can do super luxe things that would be crazy crazy stupid expensive on a larger scale. Think De Gournay-esque wallpaper for an accent wall. Think a super exquisite designer light fixture. You get a TON of bang for your buck, since you can buy something smaller and have it read as more dramatic. You can use super, super strong colors that might read as monolithic in a larger space. You can play with proportions in really interesting ways that just look silly in larger spaces. There are so many gorgeous things you can do with tiny spaces, and people waste them by painting them white and throwing in tiny furniture.
I hate when people have small spaces and want them to look light and airy. That's like decorating a farmhouse to look like a Georgian manor. If your space is small, lean hard into the coziness. Paint it a strong color. Introduce really tactile elements like velvets. Go luxe as hell on the finishing. Splurge on a really beautiful rug that's the right scale. Layer your lighting. Those beautiful pools of light and shadow on the walls will blur out the corners, and make the space look bigger without taking away from the coziness. You can do large scale furniture in a small space. You just have to make it a focal point. You can do an enormous dramatic sofa. You just have to keep everything else delicate, and the sofa has to be worth the visual weight. (It needs to be damn interesting.)
The cardinal rule of good taste is "nothing that pretends to be something else." (Meaning, if you can't afford marble, don't do vinyl that looks like marble. Pick an interesting vinyl that embraces the qualities of vinyl.) I feel like that rule goes for the size of spaces too. Embrace the size of your space. If you have a palatial dining room, don't try to chop it up into lots of cozy little nooks. If you have a small space, embrace the fuck out of it.
I disagree, my small space looks and feels light an airy, and that’s exactly how I want it!
I always say to respect your architecture!
Love your energy
The BEST examples for every point!!
By God !! You're a superman !! Love the energy.
Love, Love Love the Louise Nevelson inspired room divider at 8:07!
I love your glasses frames! Also, your humor, or is it the editor 's humor?, anyway, I always get a giggle from your videos. Thanks!
Both! Thanks so much!
Got carried away..bolted the tulip table to the floor! Enjoyed this one, cheers
You are sooo good, and intelligent, and versatile and fun : DDD. Blessings!
Image comparisons really help understand concepts conveyed. Great content!
Hi Lisa - much appreciated ❤️🙋♀️
Love her!
Where have you been all of my life 😮. This was awesome! Subbing now.
YAY!!! Thanks Evette! It's so fun in here, so make sure you'r bell is on!
I’m so exited to see your new video. Thank you. Lisa, I miss you so much. I’ve been watching your old videos repeatedly. I also like your Q&A and special guest appearance content.
Thank you so much!! It means the world to me to hear something like that. I am so appreciative, and you'll be seeing more!
Great ideas, all! Have a super weekend, Lisa😃
Thank you! You too!
Great tip: paint on walls, trim and ceiling all same color. What about sheen?
Always keep the sheen as low as you can for the performance you'll need. I like flat or eggshell at the most.
So many great ideas here!! 😊😊🎉🎉
Yay! Thank you!
When I hit the Lotto, I'm hiring you, Lisa, to design my NEW space
Great content as always, Lisa! Thanks very much !

You are so welcome! And welcome to the fun family!
I love your Small Spaces videos! You have such great ideas and recommendations!!!

Love the rug advice! Thank you Lisa for this video, I live in London UK and what are tiny rooms in US here are just normal size so always struggle to visualise on the examples given...but this one is just perfect!
You are so welcome!
LOVE THIS! More on small space (esp small condo) living....maybe small, one-bedroom, north facing, only a slider for light, open kitchen living ;)
Great idea!
Lisa- I enjoy you so much!! Your creativity, energy, and warmth all all conveyed in such a wonderful professional way… truly to be admired and yes thank you! Truly appreciated!
Thank you so much!
New Here...Love so many things about your channel but especially that you wear black, gray and white...just like me!
Thank you. I was trying to figure why my space felt wrong somehow and you pinpointed my issue. Very, very helpful.
Glad it helped!
Hilarious and tasteful❤️
Great ideas, Lisa! Thank you very much!

Thank you 💞
Oh thank you! So glad you're part of the fam!
Very useful tips!! Thanks Lisa ❤❤
You are so welcome!
We live in a 1939 small house of 1000sqft with 8 ft ceilings. I have paint d all the walls, ceiling, trim and kitchen & bath cabinets the same color- it has really opened it up. Our old dark oak and walnut furniture pops against the SW Alabaster- I also added natural color linen curtains with matchstick blinds (due to cost of curtains I have “dummy” panels that don’t close all the way so the blinds help with light control) but I fail with the area rugs on our medium pecan stained wood floors- they have color and movement more on the new “vintage” style. I don’t have a lot of art or pictures on our walls or lots of tchotchkes but more curated things through our 40 years of marriage- we are not collectors, maximalists or even minimalists- we just keep everything simple with a few things we love not what’s trendy- except for plants- we love live greenery so several plants in each room and our outside garden is coming along very well. What Lisa is recommending is perfect for small spaces because it works for us and people are surprised how large our rooms look though the largest is our 15x16 entry/living room (the 2 bedrooms are 11x13 and 11x14, the bath is 5x7, the eat in kitchen is 11x14).
Wow! Sounds like you totally rocked all of the suggestions, and it works!Yay!
@@LisaHoltDesign I have been following you forever and you had mentioned this a few years ago and I repainted every where in our house back then! You rock!

7:53 hats 🎩 👒 I really like the house. Point I dress in 1940s and 1950s and my husband and I like to do swing dancing and he wears a lot of fun hats. We made a artistic piece that holds hats with clothes pins. You can’t really see him once the hats are on there, so he has vintage hats bolos boleros 1950s top hats from Wayback in the day and a leather top hat and a Chinese wicker race picking hat we should put it somewhere where it’s gonna be seen.
So glad I saw this before building our very small house later this year. Great ideas that I haven't heard anyone else mention. 👍 Will be subscribing for sure!😄
Yay! and if yore building you may be interested in the Club, wo do direct Q&A's there to help ppl with big projects like that! thedezignclub.com
@@LisaHoltDesign Sounds good, thanks! Was just watching your coffee table video. 👍
One way to achieve that "giant art wall" feeling without spending thousands is to create either a triptych (three tall, vertical pieces of identical-height art set closely side by side) or even nine smaller pieces of art hung close together (three by three.) The secret is that the art either needs to be unframed canvas or else all pieces framed/matted in the exact same material (preferably something that will visually "disappear" into the art) in order to make the collection appear to be ONE visual unit. This can also be achieved with mirrors framed in silver chrome. Hang nine 2 x 2 foot mirrors framed in silver chrome nearly touching each other, and you'll have a 6 x 6 mirror effect.
Love all these suggestions, Jeanne!
I feel like people get hung up on their "art" being "art." If it's fairly flat, you can frame it. Fabric, wallpaper, maps, pictures from books, clothing, etc. etc. etc. All of the above will look better than "paintings" from stores like HomeGoods. I feel like people also wildly underestimate the importance of mats. A dramatic mat always looks better. I won't do mats that are less than 2.5 inches wide, unless I'm hanging a grouping. If a 2.5+ inch mat would look silly, the article in question is too small to put on a wall, and belongs on a shelf, unless it's part of a grouping. Same goes for framing. You can pick up a passable oil painting at a street fair, and boldly framed it can look really interesting. Go nuts.
Great energy and tips :)
Thanks so much! All the LOVE!
2:26 This studio is Elena Fateeva’s ucranian designer work. And it would be honest to mention her name in this video. Hope she’s doing well and praying for her 🙏🙏🙏

I will try! And don't miss the wonderful video about IKEA. I released today!
Thank you🫶

Love, love this video. I have a bungalow in Florida a block from the water and this content was excellent! Btw~ you are missing an E in envelope. Great channel!
Great catch, Lia! So glad you enjoyed this vid!
Perfect timing. About to move into a 1480 sq. ft., 3 bdrm. custom home, having downsized from one three times as big. Totally new dimensions and style. Thanks for the tips, especially about the rug.

My "Envelope" is a small log cabin. I have lines and knotty pine everywhere.
Think lines and polka dots everywhere. The logs also crack called "checking". I want to create a Cabin Chic vibe, but I am not sure how to pull it off. All of the wood is the same stain, but visually it is tons of horizontal lines where the logs are stacked, and the knotty pine are all shapes of dots all over. Painting over the logs is not an option. Please do something for small space log cabin home.
How does Ralph Lauren do it so well in his teepees?
Q- cluster of hats vs. gallery wall: Do the hats work, because they are all the same or is it the spacing? I have several paintings that are like 16*20/ 11*14, could it work if they are all super close together? They are gallery wrapped, but distinct pieces (not abstract or triptych).
Not only are they super close together, but they are the same value chromatically… Lay it out first on the floor and see if it will work
@@LisaHoltDesign - Thank you, Lisa. I used to work in a frame shop, and learned a lot from the various designers using our business to help them design/decorate their customers' homes. One thing I learned is that framing & matting a number of pieces with the same color values & materials (e.g. black & white family photos from the 40's all matted with white and framed with thin pale gray frames) could create a cohesive visual unit if hung closely & precisely, e.g. three by three to create a single visual unit out of nine antique photos. This also works with smaller canvases created for the purpose (e.g. all painted the same general shades of layered blues with various cloud formations on them.) This works while you're saving up for that enormous artwork by your favorite artist that is six feet tall and framed in a gilt frame from the late 1800's -- available at auction for thousands. Ulp.
Thanks scale & walls/ceilings same color!
Thanks for watching!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
At 8:10, if that's an authentic Louise Nevelson, it's not a room divider acting as a major piece of artwork, it's exactly the other way around! 😄
