“The high ceilings and natural light are what first caught my attention about this home,” begins Rachael Harvey, Assistant Membership Director for a synagogue in Manhattan. “I grew up on a busy road, so I especially love being connected to the city through my street view. I feel like I can be a part of the action, but within my own space. I want my apartment to not only share my story, but invite anyone who walks in to become a part of it,” she describes of the 275-square-foot Upper East Side studio apartment she’s been renting.

She is a real joy! Love the extra shelves and other tricks she used to maximize her space. It looks MUCH larger than 275 square feet!
What a great way to be in the centre of things, but have your own space to come home to. Things like this take a while, to collect right items & get the ideas. I am in envy with anybody with a design-eye..
I always have a lot of respect for people who make studio apartments work. Having my bed in the same room as my kitchen I would hate. Anyways this is a wonderful and cozy space ❤
I placed my bed in the dining nook of my one bedroom apartment. It's really not so bad. Leaves living room and bedroom available for other uses. The bed makes up to look like a daybed during the day.
She can change the fridge door swing to open the right way 'a la Cash Jordan'. She has at least 8 friends. Cool
Same. I think I could live in a place this size but would need to have my bed/bedroom area somehow bordered off from the rest either with a curtain or folding wall.
@@serenakoleno9338It’s just that I wouldn’t want my bed in the same room as the kitchen.. For my rest it’s better to have a separate for sleeping and the rest is for living
@@lolah3838Yes some sort of separation would make it better although you’d still sleep in your kitchen 😅 anyways I just feel like I have an adorable two bedroom apartment to live in.
My parents always said it’s not the size of the home it’s what you do with it 💚 congratulations to her she did a amazing job 😄
So true. I had smallish homes and longed for a big house. I thought that would help with the clutter. No! In a large house, I've discovered, if you are not careful you will just have a big clutter.
I prefer smaller spaces. Her place is perfect!
@@Doriesep6622 👊🏾
Wonderful space. I thought that was a real dog until she picked up the pillow, wow.
I started crying when she mentioned that the dog pillow of her now deceased dog is the same size as he was when he was alive. She seems so joyful and kind!
Decorated beautifully, great use of space, very cozy with lots of natural light. Terrific job of creating separate living space😊 love, love, Apartment Therapy
She did an excellent job designing her apartment. It’s pretty and usable. I love it.
I would never, ever, live in NY but I do enjoy seeing how NYers deco their little space. Very inspiring and practical. Bravo NYers!
Beautiful! I can’t believe the space is only 275 ft.². You have done an outstanding job at creating separation and curating your possessions!
I immediately went to find that peel and stick towel holder. Love her ingenuity in making the storage more usable.
Some day when this young lady has her own much larger home, this studio apartment will remain etched in her heart. Kudos! Best wishes❤
For a place that is so tiny, it feels so big and warm. Very nice job creating your home :)
Such a warm inviting place. Clever choices make it seem much larger. The bedroom area really does fade into the background with the way the furniture is set up and gives the feel of it's own little room. The kitchen nook is just darling and nicely separated from the living space. Some really smart and efficient ways to maximize the space.
I love it! I never cease to be impressed by the creativity and initiative shown by people who live in small apartments. And that couch - what a find!
Oh, I love this studio!!!!! Your furniture layout is brilliant, but the kitchen enhancements are the real star of your practical personalization. Such a cozy, lovely, bright home you've created for yourself. Mazel Tov! How is this only 275ft^2?!?
I love this studio. It looks like she has everything she needs.
Rachel is a very charming young lady. She has done wonders with the small space she occupies. I only wish that her landlord would have been graceful enough to give her studio a fresh coat of paint and make her kitchen cabinets a bit nicer.
Very nice! You might want to add a simple tailored bed skirt to add elegance and hide the clutter. 🏠
That was such a relaxing and welcoming apartment. I couldn’t stop watching.
You have made this small space into a lovely home. Thank you for sharing.♥
What an awesome little space! She did such a great job with the design & decoration.
Clever zoning and storage throughout. Love the "citrus" theme in the kitchen and the artwork in the entire space. Very fresh. Inspired by the extra shelving under the sink and the motion activated light, too.
Those 2chairs I bought at Walmart 4my 1st apartment just like that .I only used two and paired it with a free table!!The most comfortable chairs ever!!
It's really a blessing to have your own space that you can call home. 😍😍
This is such a beautiful and calming home.
She did a lovely job with her apartment and it’s very sweet holding on her memories of her family beloved dog.
It’s not too bland but definitely cozy. I really like how she laid things out too 😊
Wow! She maximized the space and made it homey without looking messy. Love it.
My Sister in law lived in Queens, NYC and her apartment looked very similar, it was so cozy. She had a coffee table that was a fish tank .
One of the most comfortable and lovely studio apartments I’ve ever seen.
Such a cute and functional place she's created!
Rachel did a great job of making her home look cute and cozy, while still being very functional. So, often the small spaces shown doesn’t have a a TV watching area. He’s has a TV complete with a very comfy couch. This is definitely one of my favorites from Apartment Therapy.
She did a great job.!❤
Unbelievably creative. It is so so pretty and practical.
A great little apartment, love the way you have made it work. I especially love your dog pillow, how wonderful that your mom made those for the family.
Great job maximizing storage in such small space! Love couch. Love dog pillow. So sweet.
Beautiful & so cozy! Such great decor and a beautiful use of space! 💖
Rachel you have worked magic on your apartment!
She’s adorable and has done a great job of maximizing her space.
Very cute space, and great ideas for extra storage.
this girl did a good job with this apartment, I like how its not cluttered.
I would never hav guessed it was only 275sq. ft!!!! I absolutely luv ur home!!!
Very nice, Rachel. Very homey. Very you. Cheers.
Great thoughtful details & functional choices! Great couch - what a gift!
Charming home! She really shows the care and attention she uses to make her home functional and welcoming!
It’s a beautiful place and you are really clever with all the different ways you maximized the storage spaces! Lovely apartment!
Your home is lovely. It’s hard to believe that it is only 275 square feet. Your furniture choices and the way you’ve arranged everything does make it seem larger, but also very cozy.
You did a great job on decorating but I love the shelves you built next to the cabinets. NY Street Shopping: great sofa!!! Very cozy and the illusion of space makes it look larger than a studio. Your landlord is lucky to have such a creative tenant.
One of my favorites! She did a great job! Does not feel like 275 sq. feet.
My first apartment was a studio. I just love a well organized studio space.
Wow ! This is gorgeous ! So welcoming and cozy. How you made it look spacious is so impressive. Functional AND artistic
Your apartment is amazing . Your use of space a d functionality is superb. Congratulations. I too, am a huge wizard of oz fan, my husband bought me the same large framed poster. Enjoy you life to the fullest!
Ok as a native i actually think this is a pretty good deal for a studio? Nowadays it’s hard to find something under 2k (sadly.) I do like how much she DIY’ed and added to the kitchen for example and overall while still small I think she did get to make it seem more~~ And i love her dinette area!
I'm little like she is, and with those high ceilings, I might think about a loftlike bed, with space underneath for... a desk, a dining table, a cozy chair... whatever. But I like the way she's done it too.
Nice job maximizing the space. My heart goes out to these folks living in high rent apartments.
The kitchen shelves are just so lovely. Well executed
Love her and her apartment! Great ideas , especially in the kitchen .
You’ve done a great job of maximizing your square footage. Your home is charming and inviting!
So beautifully decorated, especially working with 275 square feet. I wish I had the autonomy to do the kind of work she did in her place. And I would get a partition screen for the bed.
This is absolutely adorable, you did a beautiful job!! ❤🏠✨️
What an amazing space... good use of the space. Looks spacious. Stealing some of the ideas from this beautiful home...
Love this apartment! I could happily live in that space. Lots of storage for a small apartment and she’s added plenty more. I actually love those little corner kitchens for some reason 😊
Wow it definitely doesn't look small. Credit to your decorating skills and talents. How cozy and homey!
Her little apartment is so cute
Lovely, really lovely. I would love to live in that apartment.
The dog pillow...so sad but sweet. Id cry too much to have my own.
Super cute and cozy apartment. Great use of space!
For storage under the bed, a great way to hide it is with cute little bed skirt. You can fit so much underneath without a trace lol! :)
She is brilliant; this apartment is FABULOUS❣️❣️❣️
Just lovely. She has a lot of clever hacks but also great design and décor.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I love this apartment! The story you tell Rachel is evident in your belongings! Honest and authentic! Just perfection! And that stooped couch! Omg 😳! Magic! And your subway poster over your bed! What a poetic touch!
Your home is so beautiful and you are so happy so warm comfortable 💕
You did a great job decorating your small space. You have lots of good ideas. The couch looks great in your space. LUCKY!
For NYC in 2023, this price is a pretty good deal. Her design and upgrades make it feel nice & homey.
This is the best apartment I've seen on one of these episodes. Great job!
This is very good design for such a tiny space.Iv’e seen dozens of these NY tiny apt videos and this one is by far the best 👍
