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.

omg I absolutely LOVE his clock - makes me wish i could do something like that, which i obviously can't!
Incredible! I adore the clock idea!
wow.. wish I had this type of talent!
Youuuuu need to design for IKEA!!!! And then give me discounts! :D
I LOVE THE WATCH IN THE LIVING ROOM! THE IDEA IS SO AWESOME!
I am in awe! I love the faucet/towel rack in bath. I love the clean straight lines simple and elegant feel of the space. I love how some people can see the beauty in a not so beautiful surrounding.
That wass clock is amazing!
looks neat but its far from practicle in fact ill go as far and say its useless
Your cat must love you. I'd love to build something like that if I were more crafty!

Thank is so awesome!! I love how they turned it from being a place that looked like it had no hope, to amazing!!! They made it very modern & industrial....what a great job!!

That is a significant change, a great improvement and beautiful where ugliness had dominated. Of course, the land still belongs to Palestinians, and they want it back.
Love the look..love the kitchen, the storage for electronics, Love the bathroom...only question I have is where are their clothes??? at the dry cleaners? :-)
What a stunning result! How they managed to go from the before to the after blows my mind.
While the cat play area is adorable, I love the alarm clock, clock the best. What an ingenious idea!
Thank you for sharing :)

Tasteless. Good effort, though :)
Wow, I had to look at all the pictures twice I was so blown away. Fantastic job - you have a long and successful career ahead of yourselves, that's for sure!
I LOVE the clock, so smart!
The built in wall shelving alcove is a true piece of art. I also love the bathroom sink, I like how it combines functionality with style, very creative. Some of the areas do seem to be lacking and seem kind of bare, but some simple art piece or pictures will easily fix that. Great job!
I love everything, There are some real talented people out there. I am a very poor decorator...
That is so cooll you should do my room awesome!!:)
I really liked the faucet towel rack and the clock made out of clocks!!! Very creative :)
Absolutely stunning transformation!
I absolutely LOVE your, well, EVERYTHING!!! Wow!! Sheer Genius!!! My favorite, if I were forced to choose in order, would be the clock! The towel rack/faucet---Heavenly!!! Just fabulous!!!
Creative genius! Do you work and study at the same time? I wish I could make my home like that while I work and study. I think you both should be very proud of your efforts :-) Well done and greetings from Kiwiland :-)
Just fabulous! Job will done & very creative.
