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.

Very impressive. You have a real talent for design, it shows.
You are amazing at design. Congratulations on a job well done.

Try the sentence with out the girlfriend.
Would you ever say me brought my first apartment?
Brilliant transformation!!!
Gorgeous, amazing, beautiful - how many adjectives can I use? Can you please come to Canada and redesign my boring house??? Pretty please??
I came across this post on StumbleUpon. What an incredible renovation, I can't imagine the amount of time and effort it took. Congratulations on the beautiful place, it looks amazing!
wau, great renovation, I like it!
Wow! this is absolutely genius work!! I loved the idea of the clock... Great :)
This is downright amazing! Looking through the "before" pictures, I was thinking to myself that there was no way anybody could fix up a place like that! But it was done in an extremely gorgeous way! Wow! :)
Major props to the renovation outcome!
Simply awestruck!! You guys are geniuses!!!!!
Wow! Great transformation. Although modern is not necessarily my style I do have to say that wall clock with all the smaller clocks is absolutely awesome!
love that clock such a good idea!!!!
A - MAZ - ING!!!!! I do not have any design talent , so this is beyond my wildest dreams of the coolest of cool!!!
I am in awe!!!!!!
What an AMAZING transformation. This is designer's gorilla warfare at it's best, if I should say so. Great creativity throughout this entire task. I really like everything you've done to this place. All of the colors are soothing and not clashing. I'm especially fond of the nook area with the recessed bookshelf and lite. Cool!!!!!
Keep up the good work!
I really love your ideas! Are awesome! I love the clock made from other old clocks, the bathroom...especially the faucet! and the table with those 2 red chairs. I love how you renovated your apartment.
Can I just say WOW!!!! Amazing! I loved the big clock made out of smaller clocks! And the bathroom? Genius!! I loved it!
Nice remodel! Clever way to add the "cat play area".
AMAZING I love the ideas and the colours look so great. Some fantastic space making techniques too! I love those dinning room tables that can be folded to become smaller, perfect for a couple who has the occasional dinner parties but mostly dinning for two. Love it. great post.
I like the house. It's so beautiful. My small apartment is being decorated now. What a fantastic thing if my apartment is decorated so nice.
I LOVE the green in the bedroom. When and if I ever get around to freshening up my walls around here, I am going to use that color.
Can't wait to see his next project. He should have his own TV Show.
WOW... I love what you have done in the living area, opening up the kitchen and the whole room. everything was just terrifically amazing!! I wish we could wrap you up and bring you home!!! Have you do what you want with our place and my mother's and my sister's and my boyfriend's parent's place. lol. Bravo!
that clearly cost a lottt of money
Perfect, right down to the plants! Love the clock and how each little clock face is set for it's own strategic time location!
A lot of modern re do 's look cold and uninviting, this is cool and invitingly warm at the same time! Well done.
That's awesome! You're great!
I liked this work and now remembered that my house also need some changes.
