MY NEW JAPANDI-INSPIRED OFFICE TOUR! Renovating my Condo into a Creative Workspace | Bea Alonzo
00:39.0
And I hope your January is going well so far
00:42.2
because as for me, I am very excited
00:44.6
because today, I am going to give you a tour of my workhub slash mini office.
01:07.8
Of course, none of this would be possible
01:10.0
without the help of my interior designer,
01:12.0
ever-loyal interior designer, Ms. Jacelle de los Reyes.
01:15.2
So, thank you so much, Ms. Jacelle.
01:17.2
So, shall we start?
01:19.0
So, upon entrance,
01:20.8
makikita niyo agad yung fluted panels that I have
01:24.4
in the French mirror wall.
01:27.0
So, gusto ko mag-create ng parang minimalist and fluid hallway.
01:32.6
So, meron din parang arch at the end of the hallway
01:35.6
kasi gusto ko na parang meron siyang grand entrance.
01:39.2
Just to give you an idea,
01:40.6
I opted to go for the Japandi style,
01:43.2
meaning the Japanese-Scandinavian style.
01:45.6
So, I wanted to achieve three different things.
01:48.0
I wanted to achieve simplicity.
01:50.2
Also, I wanted to have a calming space.
01:53.4
And also, I wanted a functional space.
01:56.4
So, on with the tour.
01:58.2
Shout-out sa Ibarretta Sia Space Edge Contractors.
02:01.4
They did these fluted panels that I love so much
02:05.0
and also these mirrors.
02:07.0
Functionality is key, guys.
02:08.8
It also serves as a wall.
02:10.8
So, it's aesthetically pleasing.
02:12.8
But it also hides the kitchenette.
02:15.6
So, we have a kitchenette here.
02:17.4
This is made of Carrara marble.
02:19.8
Just like what I have in Spain.
02:21.4
Soon, eventually,
02:22.6
bibigyan ko kayo ng tour of my Spain apartment.
02:27.2
Pero, saka na yun, guys.
02:29.0
Of course, we have coffee here.
02:31.0
We have the sink there.
02:32.6
We have microwave and the coffee maker.
02:36.6
So, we also have storage spaces here.
02:40.0
And you may be wondering
02:41.4
bakit wala kaming gas stove or hood dito.
02:45.4
It's because I really don't see myself cooking in here.
02:49.6
Shoot, hindi siya mga food.
02:52.6
Team bigatin kami.
02:53.6
Hindi mo maawala iyan.
02:56.6
See, all the glasses are here.
03:00.0
Gusto ko lang yung white lang.
03:01.8
Yung parang wabi-sabi style na imperfect.
03:05.2
And just parang very Japanese.
03:07.4
Yung no-nonsense.
03:09.0
Of course, my utensils are here also.
03:12.8
Let's open the other panel.
03:15.4
There's a brand new car!
03:19.4
So, now you will see the other side of the kitchenette.
03:22.8
Baka maitanong nyo,
03:23.8
bakit ko ba lilagyan ng enclosure?
03:26.0
Upon entrance kasi,
03:27.6
makikita mo agad yung kitchenette.
03:29.0
And it doesn't really look that professional.
03:31.2
As much as ayoko rin na sobrang stiff
03:33.8
nung mini office or co-working space ko.
03:37.2
Also, gusto ko rin siyang bigyan ng konting formality,
03:48.2
Also, I'll show you.
03:49.4
Baka kasi nagpapagawa kayo ng bahay.
03:51.2
And this is a hack or an idea that you can also use.
03:55.4
So, kung hindi mo siya tititigan,
03:56.8
hindi mo makikita
03:58.2
na nandito ang aming electrical panel board.
04:02.6
Parang in some other condos,
04:04.2
kasi medyo nagiging eyesore siya, diba?
04:06.2
You can find ways to actually hide them.
04:09.2
So, do you wanna see my bathroom?
04:18.2
So, it's just a decent-sized bathroom.
04:20.8
It's not that big.
04:21.8
It's not that small.
04:23.0
Again, I have Carrara marble here.
04:26.0
Nirequest ko ito kay Ms. Giselle
04:28.0
kasi gusto ko talaga yung mga lines niya.
04:30.8
I feel like it's not too much
04:32.4
also not too little.
04:34.0
I love that it's kind of gray.
04:36.0
It's not too white or it's not too dark.
04:38.0
And of course, the tiles.
04:39.8
Siyempre yung mga wall tiles.
04:41.8
It may look like marble
04:43.4
but it's actually not marble.
04:44.6
These are just tiles.
04:45.6
But it looks so good
04:47.4
na hindi mo siya mahahalata masyado
04:49.4
na parang very seamless din
04:52.4
from Carrara to the tiles.
04:54.4
I have to say, they're really good at doing it.
04:56.6
Of course, may continuity yung panels natin.
05:00.8
The fluted panels.
05:01.8
I still have them here.
05:03.4
I also love the style of the mirror
05:06.4
that we put here.
05:07.8
Parang it's imperfect.
05:09.0
Again, I wanted to like
05:11.0
use the Wabi Sabi philosophy here
05:15.0
na parang it looks imperfect
05:16.6
but it's perfect for this space.
05:19.0
And I love this bulb here.
05:21.6
Of course, we have real orchids here
05:23.2
to bring the outside in.
05:25.6
Of course, the toilet is here.
05:27.8
This may come as a surprise
05:29.4
but actually, we have a decent size
05:32.4
shower area here.
05:34.4
Also, the glass enclosure.
05:37.4
Gustong-gusto ko yung glass enclosure.
05:39.0
Ayoko nang maraming tulo
05:42.2
sa labas ng shower area.
05:44.2
Ayoko nang parang bumabaha
05:46.0
sa labas ng bathroom.
05:48.4
Actually, I would like to also thank
05:50.4
Kingsue Aluminum and Glass
05:52.6
because they've been my suppliers
05:54.6
sa lahat-lahat ng mga properties ko.
05:57.4
And I have to say, talagang very matibay
06:00.0
tsaka maaasahan sila.
06:07.8
After the hallway,
06:09.0
you will be greeted by
06:11.0
the very minimalist living room.
06:13.8
So we have here, again,
06:15.6
with a marble top coffee table
06:19.0
Also, we have like a very simple couch.
06:22.4
We have the Solijia armchair.
06:26.4
Again, sasabihin ko may continuity ulit, no?
06:29.2
It looks super subdued.
06:31.0
Lahat ng colors ko are just like neutrals.
06:34.0
Wala ako yung parang overpowering.
06:36.0
You may probably recognize this.
06:38.6
This is a sculpture by Michael Cagno.
06:41.8
This came from my house
06:43.0
and I just thought, you know,
06:44.8
parang maganda siya dito sa center table ko
06:47.2
so I just brought it here.
06:48.8
All the furniture in this area,
06:51.8
actually in the whole place,
06:53.4
is made by Francisco Furniture.
06:55.6
So thank you, shoutout!
06:57.0
Syempre, meron kaming TV.
06:58.6
Syempre, kapag panood na oran naman
07:00.6
yung mga content that we are about to upload
07:02.8
or we have already uploaded
07:04.8
or if meron kaming pag-aaralan ng content
07:06.8
that we want to use eventually
07:09.2
or gusto namin i-explore.
07:11.4
Also, parang inisip ko,
07:13.0
I would come here to like read my scripts
07:15.2
or study a specific movie that I wanna do
07:18.8
or like even write.
07:20.8
Baka meron na akong matapos ng script.
07:22.8
Finally, if I come here often, you know.
07:25.4
Kung yung bahay ko is my sanctuary
07:27.8
and kung napanood niyo yung house tour ko,
07:29.2
yes, I have a little office there as well.
07:31.2
But during the pandemic,
07:32.8
parang naging yung sanctuary ko
07:34.8
parang napupuntahan na rin siya ng trabaho
07:37.6
at nai-invade na siya ng trabaho ko.
07:39.6
So parang ito yung naging idea ko
07:41.2
to bring my work outside the house.
07:42.8
Although, it's really, really not that far from my house.
07:45.4
But still, at least, it's not in my home
07:48.4
which is like my relaxation area.
07:50.4
So yun yung reason behind this.
07:53.4
And again, with the fluted panels.
07:56.2
Siguro kung magpapinteres kayo,
07:57.6
makikita niyo kung Japandi yung style
07:59.8
that you would want to like use
08:02.0
for your future house.
08:03.2
Ito yung parang staple for like Japanese style
08:07.0
or Japanese Scandinavian style.
08:09.2
So when you close all the panels here,
08:11.8
it's made out of like three panels.
08:13.8
You will see that there are like shelves here.
08:17.0
So gusto ko yung mga ganito,
08:18.8
yung mga natural materials.
08:20.6
Time, because time is food.
08:24.6
Parang you will see like
08:26.4
different things here and there
08:28.2
na may not make sense to you
08:30.4
but it makes sense to me.
08:31.8
You know, it's all about, you know,
08:33.0
putting your personal touch in the play.
08:36.0
Actually, ito niregalo sa'kin.
08:37.2
Ito ni Ms. Jeisel.
08:38.2
Ito, I don't know, driftwood.
08:40.4
Kasi gusto namin ni Ms. Jeisel
08:42.0
para sa lahat ng places that we would do
08:44.2
or we would develop.
08:46.0
Gusto namin yung merong parang vintage piece.
08:49.4
Kahit na mukha siyang modern.
08:51.6
Gusto ko merong parang vintage piece.
08:57.4
you will see still the fluted panels
08:59.8
with the LED light,
09:01.0
which I think is brilliant.
09:02.4
Parang may drama at night.
09:05.0
If you see this at night,
09:06.0
it's really beautiful.
09:07.2
Kasi you can like host drinking sessions here
09:10.4
with your friends or with my team
09:12.0
or, you know, parang kung nag-brainstorm kami,
09:14.6
we can, you know, do that over some drinks.
09:17.8
It's a good creative space.
09:19.8
So we also have the dining area slash boardroom.
09:35.2
Guys, it's just really a small space.
09:37.4
Sometimes, I get ready here for work.
09:39.8
Kasi nga, ayoko nang ginagawa yun sa bahay.
09:42.2
So sometimes, dito kami kumakain
09:44.2
before you would get ready for work
09:46.2
or they would bring their laptops here
09:48.8
and talk about the future projects
09:50.6
or future content that we would do.
09:52.6
So this is a marble top dining table.
09:56.6
Again, and hindi ko napapakita sa inyo
09:58.6
just like dun sa center table.
10:00.4
Parang syang fluted panels din.
10:02.6
So again, meron syang fluidity and continuity.
10:07.2
etong dining chair,
10:09.4
parang syang canvas
10:11.0
na hindi sya super smooth,
10:13.8
which I really like so much.
10:15.6
And we have scented candles here.
10:18.2
I like this very much also.
10:21.2
it looks very modern and very simple.
10:24.2
It gives out like a very dramatic type of lighting.
10:28.0
All the lights, lahat ng lamps,
10:29.6
lahat ng lighting fixtures namin
10:32.0
nanggaling sa Acervio.
10:33.2
So thank you, Acervio.
10:34.8
Of course, we have some beautiful curtains here.
10:37.8
It's not so white.
10:38.8
It's parang cream-ish, which I love.
10:41.6
Thank you, MCG and House of Curtains.
10:44.6
Parang meron kami ditong cushion type na...
10:47.8
I don't know, guys.
10:48.8
Hindi ko alam kung ano yung tawag
10:49.8
because I'm not an interior designer.
10:51.2
But ito yung nag-hide dun sa rod ng curtains.
10:55.0
This is made of cushion,
10:57.2
which is very nice.
10:58.4
Parang kapareho ng dining chairs ko.
11:01.0
So when you open it up,
11:03.6
you will see the beautiful sunset
11:07.6
And you can even open this up.
11:11.0
Kahit at night, makakita mo...
11:13.2
Parang overlooking yung Quezon City.
11:16.4
Makakita mo siya.
11:17.2
So it's really, really nice.
11:19.0
So we have here a console table
11:22.0
with this pretty and cute light
11:25.8
Meron kaming branch na nilagay dito.
11:29.0
Of course, with the Solijia material here.
11:32.6
Ito na yung mga office supplies namin.
11:35.6
Kaka-tore over lang sa'kin
11:37.6
Parang hindi ko pa siya masyadong gamit.
11:39.0
Parang twice pa lang ako nagpundi dito
11:41.2
But I would say, like,
11:42.4
this is perfect for me.
11:43.6
Even though it's really small.
11:45.4
It's not like the other offices.
11:47.0
But I would reiterate,
11:48.2
it's really not an office space.
11:50.4
It's more like a creative hub
11:53.0
for me and my team.
11:54.4
So dito sa area na to,
11:55.8
we have like a coffee table.
11:57.8
Actually, pang ano lang to eh.
11:59.4
Parang extra chairs and coffee table.
12:03.0
We can take it out.
12:04.2
Kung napanood niyo yung office tour ko,
12:07.4
yung pre-construction,
12:09.4
yung bala ko dito dapat.
12:11.6
Ito yung office ko talaga.
12:13.2
Dito dapat yung personal space ko.
12:15.2
Tapos lalagyan ko dapat dito ng French door.
12:17.8
Parang naisip ko,
12:19.0
parang it doesn't really make sense.
12:21.0
Kasi whenever my team,
12:22.6
maybe my glam team,
12:24.2
or my digital team,
12:25.4
or my manager ko,
12:27.2
di mo na ko talaga lalayo sa kanila.
12:29.8
Of course, I don't want to talk to them.
12:31.2
So it doesn't make sense,
12:32.4
like, putting like a division.
12:34.4
So parang mas naisip ko
12:36.4
na lang na maglagay ng backdrops here.
12:39.0
Kasi whenever I would get ready here,
12:41.6
gusto namin kumuha ng mga portraits,
12:46.0
Parang it just makes more sense
12:48.2
kung maglalagay na lang kami
12:49.6
ng different backdrops.
12:51.0
For you and for my team.
12:54.8
So this is just like an open space.
12:58.8
we can do whatever here.
13:00.4
What I like about this whole condo
13:02.6
is because nasabi ko na ito
13:04.2
dun sa huling tour ko,
13:05.6
pre-construction.
13:06.8
I like the ceilings.
13:08.2
They're really high.
13:09.2
I love that it's, you know,
13:10.6
enveloped with a lot of glass windows.
13:13.4
So lahat ng light talaga pumapasok.
13:16.2
Diba yung sunlight biyaya yan?
13:18.2
So dahil workspace namin to,
13:21.2
you know, ang ganda na parang
13:22.8
you're basking on blessings
13:24.8
after blessings, after blessings.
13:26.6
So for me, it's really a good space to work in.
13:29.0
And just like what I've mentioned
13:31.0
during the empty office tour,
13:33.0
of course, this is one of
13:35.2
Santa Lucia's properties.
13:37.2
And namension ko na ito before
13:39.0
na I started investing in Santa Lucia
13:41.6
when I was 15 years old.
13:43.2
I bought my first house from Santa Lucia
13:46.0
and ever since then,
13:47.4
nag-start na talaga ako mag-invest
13:49.0
in real estate with Santa Lucia.
13:51.0
And I've never regretted a day
13:53.2
na ginawa ko yun.
13:54.4
So if you are looking to invest
13:56.2
in properties or if you wanna,
13:58.4
you know, buy your dream house,
14:00.0
it is good to actually check their socials
14:02.8
at Santa Lucia Properties
14:04.8
or at Santa Lucia Land.
14:06.2
I will put the link down below
14:08.6
on the comment box
14:09.8
para mag-start na kayo.
14:10.8
A wise woman once told me
14:12.8
the best time to invest is always now.
14:15.8
Let's go to the balcony.
14:23.8
So this is the last part of the tour.
14:26.8
So we have a small balcony here.
14:29.6
Ito yung gusto kong like
14:31.6
area where they could breathe
14:33.2
or halimbawa kung talagang you're stressed out.
14:35.2
It's just so nice to come out here
14:37.4
and, you know, look out
14:39.4
and parang sa laki ng space na ito
14:43.0
makakagita mo, you're just really a speck of dust.
14:45.0
Parang you can just have coffee here
14:47.0
or have wine here.
14:48.4
Kaya na ngayon, medyo rush hour
14:50.0
kaya medyo maingay
14:51.0
pero at night, promise, hindi ito maingay.
14:52.8
So we have here like a wall
14:54.8
kasi behind this,
14:56.8
may mga air conditioning.
14:58.4
Yung likod ng air conditioning.
15:00.4
Ayokong silang nakikita.
15:02.2
So kung meron kayong mga eyesore
15:04.2
sa areas ng bahay ninyo,
15:06.6
this is a good idea.
15:08.2
So we also put some green turf here
15:11.2
kasi gusto ko parang paglabas mo
15:13.0
parang natural pa rin yung isuron ng place.
15:16.0
Tapos naglagay si Ms. Jaisal
15:17.4
ng parang cute na
15:19.4
I don't know kung parang wire siya
15:21.4
with like, I don't know,
15:23.0
cacti na nandiyan.
15:24.6
Parang cute lang niya na, you know,
15:27.4
So there, this concludes
15:29.2
my work hub tour.
15:31.4
I hope you enjoyed it.
15:33.0
For me kasi ako parang
15:34.4
I know this won't be my last
15:36.4
office or work hub.
15:37.8
It's just for me and my team.
15:39.6
It's not for a big group of people.
15:43.2
Mas gusto ko kasi
15:44.2
i-compartmentalize yung buhay ko.
15:46.2
Like, when I'm at home,
15:47.4
that's my place of relaxation.
15:48.8
When I come here,
15:50.0
gusto ko na, you know,
15:51.4
I can be creative, you know,
15:53.2
I can explore different things.
15:55.2
Lahat ng nasa utak ko
15:56.8
na gusto ko ma-achieve,
15:58.0
I can just write it down and,
15:59.8
you know, bounce it off with people
16:01.8
that could help me as well.
16:04.0
And when I'm at GMA
16:06.2
or when I'm working doing TV ads,
16:08.8
yun naman yung artista
16:10.6
or celebrity hat ko.
16:12.6
So I like wearing different hats.
16:15.8
meron akong place
16:17.6
para i-perform yung tasks ko
16:19.6
whenever I would, you know,
16:21.4
wear different hats.
16:22.4
Siguro ang laking purpose
16:24.0
nitong work hub nito para sa akin.
16:28.0
kung meron kayong mga suggestions
16:29.8
on how I can improve this space
16:33.4
please comment down below.
16:34.6
And again, I thank you so much
16:36.6
for subscribing and liking all my videos.
16:39.0
I wish you a happy, happy new year.
16:41.4
