    • just shows you don't have to sacrifice luxury because you have a smaller home. That place looks really nice. Yet if I was living with people I would not really appreciate it. But for a sort of college living space situation it would be neat.

    • I'm not so sure about this - it's a really clever and inventive use of space, but think that a design challenge like this should set out to address more than just space limitations.

      For one, if you're living in a cramped environment, I reckon that the ergonomic design of the environment you're living in is going to affect your health and well-being.

      The idea of having no space, leads to the inhabitant not moving around as much... and sitting for longer in the same positions. This set up doesn't look very comfortable.

      Off the top of my head, the main seat could make use of a bar to hook yr feet round to improve posture (like the stool in the photo).

      Good concept, but I wouldn't want to live in it.

    • cool images, reminds me of legos. Thanks!

      I saw this article from apartment therapy for even families with a new born baby with tiny tiny spaces that were uber organized and neat. I guess when in that scenerio, you become organized, even if that skill is lacking.

      Check out the link for spaces from 100sq - on(yikes) and the couple with the baby (Inside Out: Max and Sara Kate's Small Really is Cool (265 sq. ft.)
      - very cozy.

    • Too amazing! I'm live in a small studio and this would be way more cooler than how I have my stuff sprawled all around right now.

    • I think it would be cool to have if you lived in studio apartment, or maybe a club house. Be sure to check out our Pod, we love to hear your feedback
