Issue 2 is all about finding ways to slow down in the city, but don’t go slow in getting your copy! Visit https://www.nevertoosmall.com/store In the heart of Madrid, designers Jorge Núñez and Eileen Ng of StudioMadera have transformed this compact apartment into a bright and highly functional home for their client, Eva, a translator who works from home. The design prioritises natural light and seamless flow between spaces, featuring a U-shaped kitchen with a multipurpose peninsula, a sliding glass partition for openness and privacy, and built-in storage solutions throughout. Inspired by Japanese shoji screens, the flexible layout allows each area to serve multiple functions, while custom cabinetry cleverly conceals everyday essentials—including a dedicated nook for Eva’s cat. Warm wood tones, soft neutral palettes, and thoughtfully placed textures create a serene yet practical retreat in the city. 00:00-01:03 Introduction 01:03-03:18 Location 03:18-03:50 Entrance 03:50-05:01 Living Area 05:01-06:32 Kitchen 06:32-07:34 Bedroom 07:34-08:10 Office 08:10-09:13 Bathroom 09:13-09:45- Conclusion #smallapartment #architecture #interiordesign Ep 209 Project Name: Piso Doctor Fourquet Architect: https://studiomadera.es/ Produced by New Mac Video Agency Creator: Colin Chee Director: Nam Tran Cinematographer: Andrew Davies Producer: Lindsay Barnard Editor: Sebastian Tibbs Music: Artlist.io Cute Fluffy Clouds by Less Gravity Sun Dream (Instrumental Version) by Elliott Green
