Designed by architect Adele McNab, this 3-metre-wide terrace seamlessly blends private and shared living, hosting everything from communal meals and workshops to reading sessions and street parties. Thoughtfully designed storage, modular furniture, and adaptable layouts allow the home to shift between personal retreat and community hub. A curated in-house library invites guests to explore, while the courtyard and DJ booth reflect their love for hospitality, creativity, and social connection. 00:00-01:44 Introduction 01:44-03:00 Location 03:00-05:11 Library 05:11-06:47 Stairway 06:47-09:08 Bedroom 09:08-10:46 Bathroom 10:46-13:05 Kitchen 13:05-14:46 Courtyard 14:46-17:43 Shop 17:43-18:46 Back Alley 18:46-19:14 Conclusion #smallapartment #architecture #interiordesign How I Live Small Ep.6 Project Name: Magenta House Owner: https://magentahouse.com.au/ Architect: https://adelemcnab.com/ Produced by New Mac Video Agency Creator: Colin Chee Director & Cinematographer: Nam Tran Producer: Lindsay Barnard Editor: Jessica Ruasol Music: Artlist.io Lets Dream by Vladislav Kurnikov Sensual Hold Muzakby Lance Conrad Itabashi by Magiksolo Too Old to Fly by Skipp Whitman Mack the Knife by Amos Ever Hadani As Much as I Love You by shu By Your Side by Yestalgia Villa Cannoli by Jamie Bathgate Around Everywhere by Vladislav Kurnikov Mulholland Drive by NOOMA Your Glow by Vladislav Kurnikov Direction by Barrell Saturday Morning by Vladislav Kurnikov Mist by Dor Ben Lulu Magenta House image credits listed by order of appearance: Library Visitor Photo: Mariam Ella Arcilla Filipino Pot-Luck at Magenta House: Justin Cueno Setting up at Magenta House Shop: Anna Hay Bin Alley Biennale: Anna Hay KANTINE Supperclub by Zosia Cooks & Leonie Bouchet: Justine Hornoy Magenta House Drawing by Library Visitor Hyo: Hyo BEST BEFORE Lunch-Table Gathering: Mariam Ella Arcilla Magenta House Programs Montage: Mariam Ella Arcilla Setting Up the Library: Mariam Ella Arcilla Library Visitors: Mariam Ella Arcilla Exploring Food Recipes at Magenta House Library: Mariam Ella Arcilla Library Visitors: Mariam Ella Arcilla BEST BEFORE Lunch-Table Gathering: Aphrodite Delaguiado KANTINE Supperclub by Zosia Cooks & Leonie Bouchet: Justine Hornoy Fine Print Magazine Networking Day: Mariam Ella Arcilla Filipino Pot-Luck at Magenta House: Justin Cueno Filipino Cook-Up: Mariam Ella Arcilla Oyster Shucking Workshop: Mason Kimber Chef Aheda Cooking Class: Mariam Ella Arcilla Magenta House Programs Montage: Mariam Ella Arcilla Five-Spice Girls Supperclub: Mariam Ella Arcilla BEST BEFORE Lunch-Table Gathering: Aphrodite Delaguiado KANTINE Supperclub by Zosia Cooks & Leonie Bouchet: Mariam Ella Arcilla Mariam Setting Up Magenta House Shop: Anna Hay Magenta House Shop Visitors: Isabelle Melody Moore Bin Alley Biennale: Isabelle Melody Moore Bin Alley Biennale Montage: Mariam Ella Arcilla Bin Alley Biennale: Anna Hay Bin Alley Biennale: Isabelle Melody Moore
