Salut,
Alex - Zábava
gosh please make the studio renovation into a series on this channel i just love seeing the process of a new space!
Don't worry, he will!
Seeing time lapses in the built-up face would be nice as well.
I’m gonna start doing this soon and I never done it. I need to see other ppl mistakes
With the amount of series he records in tandem I wouldn’t be surprised if he hasn’t already finished the video.
I loved the fact that your studio was both a wood shop and a kitchen at the same time and everything was hand-built and a bit rickety. Together with you being an electrical engineer it gave it the feel of a mad scientist, the guy who always builds his own machines first before he can make the perfect recipe. And the small size made it relatable. You were making do with what you had, you were making the perfect dish by combining cheap things that everybody has access to. Now you are going to have a semi-professional kitchen. I guess this happens to many CZcams channels when they are successful: Now they have sponsors and enough money, they can go full-time, and they are taking it to the next level, but what falls behind is the ability to relate. I hope that much of your DIY-concept remains and you are still going to build your own croissant-rolling-machine instead of just getting one from a sponsor. I love your content and I am looking forward to more!
amen!
Well said. I am concerned, but we'll see where this goes.
Agreed. I think Alex is wise enough to understand all of this though. He will upgrade the experience for himself as well as the viewer, while maintaining his essence.
I want the blue fridge back.
You'll get there, Alex! And when you do, you'll find the journey has been more than worth it. Good luck!
He's already there. He's just not uploaded his videos. He's been a lazy A -lex- ss
/s
@@magno5157 that's not even funny and worth reporting for bullying
@@BurkenProductions bullying? xD I bullied Alex? 😂
@@magno5157 I think he is already way further down the road. But he hasn't finished yet...
Awesome! Just please don't go too crazy on the appliances. Big part of the appeal of your channel to me is the "hey I could make/cook that too tomorrow" feeling. Don't jeopardize that by bringing in equipment none of us have. I really liked the one simple stove you used all the time. Have fun creating your new space!
Cant wait to see how you make this space yours 😁
The way you described what you wanted out of your new studio...surprising actually makes sense. Gonna miss that pillar x3 (TBH, a portrait of it in a frame would be both hilarious and heartwarming reminder of where you came from).
Hung from the ceiling in the middle of a room.
Or a scaled model of it on a shelf.
Haha, great ideas :D I'll miss the pillar too!
Put it on a hanging banner so it can be walked through
I got to say I liked your "sub-optimal" kitchen/workshop. As a fellow engineer, your approach to a problem/challenge really resonate with me. I love how you break down a task to its bare minimum, which for me is perfectly visualized by the lone gas-burner on a home made kitchen island. You are really good at showing the viewers that all major tasks can be completed by a series of minor tasks. Some may require practice, time or both, but being relatable and giving viewers the confidence of thinking "I could do this" is a great quality in you and your channel. I am looking forward to what's next and hope we get to see a lot of diy-solutions in this new kitchen as well.
@GeirKirkeby "You are really good at showing the viewers that all major tasks can be completed by a series of minor tasks. Some may require practice, time or both, but being relatable and giving viewers the confidence of thinking "I could do this""
That is exactly what he is going to show us with this series!
I've watched you refine a single recipe over the course of five videos. I'd very happily watch you refine that awesome studio space over ten videos, or even more. Please keep us posted! Watching experts build their spaces is always fascinating.
What made me fall in love with your channel was when you were building 'Le Studio'. A maker in the food space was so refreshing. The engineer doing cookery (with the workshop and kitchen being one and the same) is the heart & soul of this channel. I'm glad to see some of that isn't lost with the floor-plans you teased in this video. I'm so excited to follow you on your journey with this new space.
4:28 Pauline and Ingrid seem amazing! Again the Best of luck and hope you all do a fantastic job! It will all be worth it Alex!
Wow! I remember when you moved in to your last studio. You've come a long way my brother. Congratulations 🎉❤ Blessings 🌠
20 plus stages sounds like a 20 part video series i would love to watch ❤
I love what’s coming, why? Because it’s Alex and a new challenge? The next reach towards perfection where he can make all things food perfect.
I've been checking CZcams every Saturday at 7pm for months for a new video from you. FINALLY IT'S HERE! Welcome back, Alex!
I love that you have separate rooms, so you can have a kitchen area and a workshop area separate for building, and organise both these spaces efficiently because you're not having to cater to a room being both a kitchen AND a workshop.
I can't wait to see how this series progresses :D What a great start to a new season!
Welcome back! Excited to follow the journey in the new studio!
I absolutely love the idea of you doing a full series on the creation of your new studio. So many channels when they upgrade studios just skip over it so quickly. Going in to depth is amazing.
Sometimes popular channels just do something a bit out of their normal scope and it is truly captivating. Example is JerryRigEverything's Electric Hummer conversion.
Excited to see how this comes along and will be following closely. Keep it up Alex!
The whole thrill behind your channel is creativity and perseverance through problems. This, though tough, is going to be an amazing process so see, especiall when you have that last day with the final product and you can actually just sit and look at the fruits of your labor.
Well well well....looks like I came crawling back.
Thank you Alex for returning with quality milk after 2 months
I'm really looking forward with this build out/remodel. Congratulations on taking this step in your journey.
Most importantly, thank you for taking your fans on this journey with you. We all appreciate it.
I follow many cooking channels, and your channel was always one of my favorites.
But when you stop releaseing your new videos I understand that it was my FAVORITE channel.
Hope you get new studio up and running as quick as possible and we got more videos of you cooking.
Congrats on new studio
Alex, we love the DIY parts of your channel too, and we get a good season of this. We're gonna love the concealed chaos, because that's you, bud!
the improvisation and down to earth equipment made your videos so relatable.
Fantastic progress Alex! So excited for the new space ❤
No doubt this will be the most beautiful kitchen and workplace ever seen on a cooking show
Interior designer here: Every client hits that moment at demolition where it’s hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. To us, it’s one of the most exciting phases because it’s the first tangible step towards completion. Stay positive, because as soon as framing, electrical, plumbing, and drywall are done, you are going to be so excited again. That’s when it’s going to feel like all that needs to be done is to fill in the spaces. It’s like having a blank canvas, whereas before, you didn’t even have an easel on which to paint. Congrats on breaking ground and I can’t wait to see how the studio looks!
I'd be more than happy to watch videos about studio renovations ☺☺
Even just with the demo it looks so beautiful with the exposed rafters, the brick work and of course the arch.
The part about the mental challenges and *not* making your office too pleasant is soo recognizable. I love cooking, but I'm an engineer during the day and I need the change of scenery, a clean space, a minimal space, headphones on and most important, away from my bed. Sometimes I crave more nice stuff/chaos or whatever, but that is not the important part. Getting stuff done is. Great video about your progress, but some even bigger lessons can be learned.
All in all, an amazing video
Speaking as someone who has gone through this demolition phase with no experience and little budget, you will make this work. It is going to be beautiful. If I could do it, you certainly can!
honestly, destruction phase and the clean up after that are for me some of the most fun things to do, the first few layers building up, take me the longest every time.
This is looking great. Please make this journey into a series. We're dying to see everything !!
I see the Studio renovation as the natural extension of videos where you make your own pasta dryer, wok burner, secret cupboard etc. It's part of what I really enjoy about the channel, you're a maker. It's just that sometimes it's Food, and other times it's something else.
Looking forward to seeing the studio take shape!
Can't wait to see your vision for the new space. Thank you for sharing.
The first thing that caught my eye was the ARC... it can't go wrong when you start the day by entering thru an arc. 🤩 Good luck with your new space Alex! 🤘🏻
We've missed you Alex! Can't wait to see what's next :)
Alex, you did not go too far, there is no place holier than a kitchen where meals are prepared for others!
Hi Alex, for your concealed chaos have a look at LCD private glass, would make a nice solution to go from minimalist design to “every tool accessible” (at least visually) with a simple switch, if you use it for all the cabinets doors 😉
I am so excited for you!!! You are so honest with yourself and with your audience, I hope you know that we appreciate your ambition and the highest standards that you set for your creative endeavors.
Thank you for the previous many years and the many more years to come!
I'll check back in a few months when you have some videos up about cooking. Thanks for sharing your HERO'S JOURNEY with all of us!
I am SO looking forward to this series. Your build focused series' are always super interesting to me, and building your work space is the ultimate "build" you can do. Lets see what creativity this work space can unlock! Cant wait, stay positive, and keep rolling up your sleeves!
Congratulations!!! I’m glad you are back and am excited for you!
Love the next phase in your life to be able to scale up and get the efficiency of semi pro kitchens! Still, never forget it's not about the tools but about the knowledge, the experience and skill.
Watching your videos has become a type of therapy and it's made me feel good. Thank you so much. I've started cooking again because of you.
Je crois que tu l'as si bien dit dans la vidéo, tu aimes les challenges et tu vas le relever avec brio et passion. Je me réjouis de voir le résultat qui sera sûrement exceptionnel et à ton image 😃
I've been missing your content. Glad you’re back. Looking forward to watching you build out the new studio/kitchen. Hope you show all the renovation. And am especially looking forward to all the new and interesting dishes you’re going to be creating!
I love the round arches in this new studio, they are beautiful and already give character to this place :) (haha, I've typed this comment while watching, just before you started talking about the arches!) But I also loved the striped pillar in the old studio, it was like a signature ;)
And I must stay that your old DIY portable kitchen and sort of mess always inspired me more, as a home cook, than pretty kitchens of some chefs. It's like the mentality that you can work with what you got, there are no excuses. I hope this feeling won't go away (and what you said about kitchen isle hints to me that you keep that in mind!)
Anyway, I hope you'll do fine with the renovation and I'm glad you're growing :) All the best, Alex!
(please, plan some secret compartments - for a golden chef knife or something like that ;))
So happy for you. Can't wait to see how it turns out!
Alex, I wish you all the best and I'm sure all that hard work you're putting to create the new studio, all the obstacles you come across along the journey will pay off at the end. You're such an inspiration! Good luck and thanks for sharing the renovation process with us!
Congrats Alex! The work is hard at the beginning, never seemingly to end. But it does, and the space truly becomes yours. I built out my first 2 offices this way, and I''ve never regretted the effort and expense. One last comment - it became two projects. Once the first was built, I immediately had ideas for the second(!). My business partner hated this, but in the end it worked.
Was about to sleep BUT YOU POSTEEEDDD FINALLLYYYY🎉🎉🎉
I did the same thing /Lmao
Absolutely amazing video. Could have watched for an hour. I'm excited for you, you already made me love the space and the idea, and I love the little insights into your reflective working brain. So recognisable. Looking forward to more!
There are 2 guaranteed good days on a project. The day it starts and the day it finishes.😊
Glad to see you back, Alex. Excited for the new journey!
Amazing process Alex! And dont worry! You'll get there like you always do! Cant wait to see the final product! Im sure it will be as epic as you! Sending you my prayers that this goes smoothly! God bless you! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is exciting. Congratulations on the new place. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
So excited to see the new office!! I can only imagine how much of a challenge it is to leave your old place and build a new one. So much strength, Alex, you are a true inspiration for me
I'm so glad you're back! Estava com muita saudade!
I love the boldness of a bespoke studio! Please consider at some point sharing some costs involved for the accounting nerds.
Your passion is contagious ❤
watching you for years , really proud to see you actually getting all the tools you deserve , i feel this will propegate you even further , you were a master before , you're about to become legendary
let's go Alex!
Alex I am so excited for you! Wonderful to see you and anticipation for the new adventure!
This looks amazing! Can’t wait to follow you on this journey, best of luck
Man, I have to say it again. I appreciate you and your channel so much. I just absolutely adore your content in a way I can't do much often on this platform. I'm so excited to see your ne studio and what content you can create in it :) Best of luck on your new chapter and much love from Bavaria, Germany! :D
Congrats!! I love your philosophy of a kitchen studio combined with an office. Thank you for walking us through your thought process! It was truly inspiring for my design studio. Appreciate you!
Congratulations! I can't wait to see what comes next!
I think the translucency they pitched in their presentations are you can see from some of the renders makes more sense for the “organized chaos look”. Imagine a canvas or colorful items creating ever-changing designs behind these beautiful doors. Like the transparency in windows aero or ios7 when it first launched. 4:48
This is it - make all your cupboards this finish - and itl be beautifully neutral yet alive.
Can’t wait for the progress videos Alex!! I’ve been waiting patiently. Looks like you have got yourself an awesome space to work from😊
I love going on these journeys with you Alex. We are currently buying our first house, so I feel everything you're feeling.
Alex, it would be incredible when you go through this new studio build you showcase/focus on environmentally friendly and efficient appliances and tools.
So stoked for whats to come!! Missed this channel ❤
I just realised how much bigger and open you made that old studio appear to be in the videos. Well done
I've always thought of either doors that slid away, back into the shelving on their pivot, or slatted-roll slide doors/panels... though both take up storage space (and more so the more segmented), just to avoid having doors hanging open and more so being able to visually switch.
Though, usually imagining library/office/bedroom, and maybe sometimes work space; but for most Maker spaces that lost space is probably greatly wanted besides just more commonly connected with the chaos.
Yours is by far my absolute favorite food channel. Congratulations on your new studio. Can’t wait to see full episodes in the new setting.
It is a joy to watch you on your journey. I know you can do it.
When you were listing makers I was half-hoping we'd hear you say "This Old Tony", and say you were installing a metal-topped welding table and a lathe, with spotlights on each.
I can't wait to see what you do and where you go from here. Love the channel.
I'm looking forwards to seeing the space you create!
So exciting! Congratulations on the new space, cannot wait how amazing it will turn out
Happy you’re back. Have every faith you will make it work 👍🏼
Can't wait! Good Luck!
Good Luck Alex! You will get it done and it will be magnificent!
My father owns his own small construction business. Because you are the customer, you set the pace. My dad has remodeled whole American homes in the span of a couple months. You're in control. I can see you knocking it out in just a few short months. Here's to hoping you don't run into any problems. Good luck Alex.
Excited to see the new studio come together! Excited the follow along as you explore and construct this new world!
🤘😎👍
Sooo excited for you!!!! 💯
9.28 . . . "some hot tea" . . . Alex, you have become - a Brit ! Welcome, and thank you for joining us. You are a valuable addition to our family, we love you already. Bonjour !
Well done amigo Alex, congratulations. I'm pleased to see how people who persevere and make an effort for years go a long way.
So glad to see you back Alex! I/we missed you!! Cant wait for the results and the future content!!
I am SO excited for this!
Love your pronunciation the word "plumbing"!😊
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
Tellement hâte de découvrir le résultat! Bravo Alex, ça va être super.
You will have an awesome space when all is said and done! Can't wait to see what you come up with!
good luck! can't wait for the next update!
"The Ideeee".... I've been watching since the day you were in your super tiny kitchen making beef with peppercorn sauce with a chinese twist, and look at you now! Excited about the great content you'll create in this new space Alex!
Can't wait to be along for the ride! This is going to be awesome!
Exciting.... Can't wait to see how it all comes together...
Welcome back Alex. I'm looking forward to seeing this transformation and finding out what the new studio has in store. Bonne Chance!🤞
“Two things that don’t match” - Sounds like me trying to figure projects out as well!
Alex, I can see the vision you’re going for. This space will be incredible!
