Bizarre apartment goes viral on TikTok after its layout makes people feel ‘seasick’

An oddly designed apartment has gone viral because its layout is making people profoundly nauseous.

Posting on TikTok, a user named @rentnewyork showed the strange apartment in Washington Heights, New York.

At the start of the clip, he said: “Tell me you can’t make a good layout, without telling me...”

He then walked throughout the flat showing narrow hallways, rooms in triangle shapes and weird turnings at awkward angles. Very chic.

They claimed it is available to rent for $2,950 a month – which is around £2,128. Small change then.

The video was captioned: ‘My head is hurting.”

Reacting to architecture worse than the hotel from the Shining, people felt sick. One said: “I feel seasick after watching this.”

Another replied: “The layout of this apartment I will never live in makes me so mad...”

A third wrote: “Someone said they wanted ‘a cute apartment’ and the designer heard ‘acute apartment’.”

“Imagine coming home drunk and trying to find your room,” someone else said.

Others were confused by the prospect of furnishing the place.

“Sitting here trying to figure out how you get any large furniture down that hallway/around the corners,” wrote a different user.

A second added: “I was gonna say how the f**k do you get a couch in there but never mind, there’s nowhere to put one anyway because there’s a f***ing 45 angle wall every 3 feet.”

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of? We think not.
