Studio Apartment Thread! Pictures? Balla?

[LB.Motoring]

I am looking at a 2 story studio with a friend, I will get in there and take pictures, but it looks like it would be tons of fun, anyone live in one?


I am a fan of very open living spaces,

Anyone have some cool pictures of some?

I will update you guys as I go along, if you know me you know I am very handy and I will turn it in to something very functional and cool (random custom one off handmade space fitting furniture, etc). Parties will be in the future.

Robbie, a studio apt shouldn't be 2 story! hahaha. It is like, Dorm room status if it is a true studio! haha. :keke:

[touge monster]

YEah... 2 story makes it two studios on top of another. lol

[qt_240]

if it has a second story but its all open.. i believe its called a loft...

[RiversideS13]

+1

i think so too

[UfoZ8myCow]

Yeah... He's talking about a loft. Its like one giant room but you can section off different parts of it as living areas, work areas, etc.

The bathrooms are their own room though lol.

I live in one in Pasadena... Bottom floor is big and open, then upstairs on a slightly smaller platform is the "bedroom." I'll take pictures when there is less shit EVERYWHERE because I am in the middle of remodeling my bathroom.

[DOOK]

lofts are cool... they are really cool if they are in a rundown looking warehouse but are all modern and shit inside... make the bathroom with those glass brick things... that would be cool.

[PBucch]

Those words are not nor will ever be synonymous.

[HalveBlue]

Studios are shit.

Lofts are awesome.

Unfortunately, lofts are also expensive. Outrageously so in locations where it makes sense to have one.

I really would not mind living in something like that.

So the bottom floor is a studio and the top part is a loft? ..or is that different ?

[Matej]

All the trendy city boys live in lofts, congrats. I want one. I'd park my car on the upper floor.

[ZX88]

lofts are cool but if your living with a roommate theirs probably not much privacy.

Depends where you live. I had a studio in Cerritos, CA for $700/month.
I might be moving to one in Fresno for $450/month.

Holy shit that's cheap! You're lucky to get a rotty regular apartment for thta much WITH roomates in PA...shit

[MikeisNissan]

Damn that is cheap, an ok one here MD is 1000 for single bedroom ..

[ALTRNTV]

Also depends what neighborhood/city you live in. A 1br in the OC runs around $900-$1200.

[most_faded]

nice..i've been looking for a loft around pasadena/sgv area..anyone know of any? preferably an upstairs and downstairs loft/studio?

[MrBrightSide]

any of you living in a studio in San Jose?

[Firestorm]

car loft. ballin' outta control:

Car Loft – Lofts mit Garten und Garage auf jeder Etage in Berlin, Kreuzberg (http://www.carloft.de/v0/htdocs/index.php)

click on the bottom left for an english version.

[Om1kron]

Robbie, a studio apt shouldn't be 2 story! hahaha. It is like, Dorm room status if it is a true studio! haha. :keke:

lol a studio with a loft sounds more like a studio with vaulted ceilings and a random ass stair case thrown in.

[whiterps13]

I live in a loft, but Id be embarassed to post pictures after those 2.
I live in a college town and its $650/month. (with all utilities, h.s. internet, parking)
Nicest 1br. apartment on campus for sure.

Makes panties drop like whoa.

[kingkilburn]

What part of fresno would that be in? I've been looking for a place lol.

[ALTRNTV]

Not sure exactly where, but my cousin said there's apartments near Cal State Fresno
around that price range.

[kingkilburn]

Ya there are some near fresno state. We call that area Sin City. Maybe he knows of some of the nicer student housing.

BTW Sin City is like this little pocket of slums right next to the college. The rest of the surrounding area is actually pretty nice. I live close enough to Fresno State to hear the football/baseball games.

[LB.Motoring]

OH no, its separated, basically two separate studios/ with a stair case, sorry I didnt see that, Ive been studying finals.......

and here is the vid of a loft party we threw at a friend's loft

[GSXRJJordan]

My biggest problem with lofts is that they usually are in buildings with other lofts, and don't have any parking.

Show me a loft somewhere in Pasadena/Burbank/Glendale/etc that comes with a garage (or at least a carport off the street to work on my cars) and I'm there.

[playthe_part]

this is the place i used to live in SF, nothing really cool, but nice location. close to downtown, and with muni it was easy to go anywhere in the city. 6th street was questionable, but some decent liquor stores and a pizza place. hell even what i assume to be a "massage parlor" close by hahaha.

home : Soma Residences (http://www.somaresidences.com/html/v1/code/index.php)

i knew a guy that lived on seventh and howard that had a loft that was super nice, built in an old warehouse, 2 story, he had floor to ceiling windows with high ceilings. all the shades were automated to close at a certain time which was cool. wood floors, cement walls, dude even had a pretty good sized tree in his place which i have no idea how he got it in there.

[ALTRNTV]

Lofts remind me a lot of movies where the dude has one and it's in some run-down looking building, but when you get in, there's
like a shitload of cool stuff inside, like a damn artillery room and all these secret rooms. LOL

Its totally plain and old on the outside, is why I want to make it super pimp on the inside. Re-finish the hardwood floors, major update in lighting etc. De-LUX Pad. :bigok:

that's more than my house payment

[stiizy]

^^ But where do you live, i'm sure it's not a major metro city area

[kingkilburn]

He's got to live in the dirty south or far north.

[BustedS13]

^^ But where do you live, i'm sure it's not a major metro city area

i live a mile south of saint louis city limits
i don't live in california, that's where the savings comes in. i also don't have to pay for earthquake insurance

[kingkilburn]

No earthquakes in Fresno lol.

[drift freaq]

No earthquakes in Fresno lol.

LOL yet, hahahhaha. Seriously though most lofts in San Francisco or Los Angeles? Wind up in Neighborhoods that you either can't walk the streets at night, or its now become hip and prices have skyrocketed.
There are some really dope places in downtown LA MelloSOS used to live in one before he moved out to Vegas.

Though fact is if its a Loft in the LA area its going to be in a neighborhood that does not have much in walking distance or is a no mans land at nighttime.
A case of driving in and driving out.

Thats cool for awhile but gets old. In San Francisco the days of cool affordable lofts are gone. That was back in the 90's.

Now its all yuppified with a bunch of Yuppi's trying to act and look cool i.e. posing.

Oh and to busteds13 congrats on getting the house man but yeah its cheap because your in the middle of the plains. I.E. flat and boring.

[TRU_DAH-V]

picked up a town home as a wedding gift, its in a gated community parking is full of shit though they only give you 1 slot and for the other cars its first come first serve on the sidewalk. 2bed room 2 bath

...in all seriousness a beach would be nice, as would 70 degree winters

[kingkilburn]

You wont find that in Fresno either ;)

My mom was telling me that back in the day she bought a brand new house in GA for about $65,000.
