small living spaces

take a look at these 2 tiny but very innovative living spaces...
could these indicate the future of our living conditions?


1) roll it
"Roll It, a cool experimental house, resulted from the collaboration among different institutes within the University of Karlsruhe. This cyclindrical design is a modular protype that provides flexible space within a minimum housing unit. Three different sections are dedicated to different functional needs: there’s a bed and table in section, an exercise cylinder, and a kitchen with a sink." (read more on www.archdaily.com)

hmm.. does this remind anyone of the hamster rings in a cage? :P

2) cool transformations in a tiny apartment

(JellyWoo1014 on youtube)

the second idea is very cool, it's like 'transformers for houses'!
but it made me wonder... the amount of money that went into the renovations of that apartment, could it have been enough to buy another unit next door? :P
