Treehugger: After Two Months in the Micro-Compact Home

I’m not so sure that I could live in 2.6m^3, but it’d be an interesting experiment.

Germany’s science and party-trivia show, Galileo, this week reported on the experience of the few Munich students lucky enough to have gotten a place in the micro-compact home village experiment. Seven micro-compact homes were set up to test one possible solution to the over-crowded student housing market in Munich, more importantly to test the big question: can a person live comfortably in 2.6 by 2.6 meter? The results are in: Galileo filmed and interviewed one student’s experience.
