Video Description

Name: Meher Goel Location: East Village/Gramercy — New York, New York Size: 750 square feet/69 square meters Type of Home: Apartment Years Lived In: 2 years, renting “I’ve been in New York for 10 years, and this is my first time living alone — a milestone that I wouldn’t have believed had you told me about it 10 years ago as an immigrant in America,” begins product designer Meher Goel, who also tackles and shares home DIYs on her Instagram and TikTok. “The inspiration and courage to live alone after years of shared apartments was born out of the healing process after a few rough years. From forcefully leaving the country and moving then living in an unknown country for almost a year, the biggest heartbreak of my adult life, to a really bad injury that led to two months in a wheelchair, my core priority and need had quickly become wanting a safe place at the end of each day, somewhere that felt like my home. Building my capacity to want to live alone was both liberating and scary. Ahead of my apartment search, I created a vision board of what I wanted it to feel like, look like, stand for, and leave behind. It needed to feel like a fortress of well being, it needed to look like an extension of my creativity, and lastly, stand for a space to nurture community.” CHECK OUT THE FULL TOUR AT APARTMENT THERAPY https://bit.ly/44zW79l CHAPTERS 0:00 - Floor Plan & Mood Board 0:47 - Living Room & DIYs 2:53 - Entertaining Guests 4:03 - Dining Area & DIYs 5:44 - Work From Home Area 7:25 - Entryway & DIYs 9:17 - Coffee Bar Area 11:13 - Bedroom & DIYs 14:20 - Bathroom & Kitchen 15:14 - Design Influence & Meaning of Home About Meher IG: https://www.instagram.com/mehermakes/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mehermakes ABOUT APARTMENT THERAPY Inspiring and helping everyone to live happy, healthy lives at home. https://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ MORE FROM APARTMENT THERAPY Subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/apartmenttherapy?sub_confirmation=1 Join us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@apartmenttherapy?lang=en Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/apartmenttherapy/ Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/apartmenttherapy/
