A completely renovated first apartment
Fri, 13 Aug 2010We received an email from Ron and it started off like this: "I'm 27 years old and live in Tel Aviv Israel, currently an industrial design student. Me and my girlfriend just bought our first apartment and decided to design it completely by ourselves." Now before I continue I have got to show you a few of the before photos.
And some info on what went on after they had their way with their new apartment:
"In short we re-did the whole place:
Tore down the wall in the kitchen opening it up to the living room and dining area.
United the the bathroom making one long and spacious bathroom
Made the bedroom bigger by closing a indoor balcony.
A bar that comes out of the wall.
I personally designed and built most of the items seen in the pictures:
Large wall clock
Floating unit below the tv
round table and red chairs
table, pipe lamp and the cats playing area which is hung in the red room
faucet in the bathroom
wooden bar
lights in the living room (with red cords)
bed and side table in bedroom. "
I cannot even put into words how in awe I am of Ron's talent. Seriously. This apartment is FULL of creative and such well-executed items. See for yourselves. (I told him I may steal the cat play area idea). Check out his website HERE.
And SO MUCH MORE after the jump.

WOW - What talented hard working people - a great way to cement a relationship !
the first word that comes to mind for this reno is "WOW!" Such creativity and imagination went into the design of this apartment. But they sure did not lack true originality and style. I don't know which part I like most: the clock, the colors, or the clever use of space as a whole. I am truly inspired and intrigued!
My husband and I own a few properties and have done a lot of remodeling. We bought some condos and then flipped them to get a higher rent. I can really appreciate what you've done. It looks great and it is so creative! It makes me want to buy another condo to fix up!

Amazing what you can do with a bit of imagination, some time and a not considerable amount of money!
That is amazing! My husband and I redid our current house, but we just did cosmetic upgrades. Your total make over was awesome!
Cheers,
