David also uses red glass accents perfectly to tie in the rest of the room and comes up with an interesting space solution to compartmentalize the studio apartment. It would have been a potentially more functional choice to have separated the "bedroom" from the "living room" with a curtain instead of a half-wall to allow that space to be more open at times as well as making the television accessible to the bed but, overall, David does an exceptional job.
