A teeny tiny apartment in Pohořelec in the Castle area of Prague by A1 Architects. A mere 57 square meters in a 19th century building. Designed as a long term rental (and hence I’m assuming its somewhat spartan decoration) it offers clever ideas for small space living. By incorporating the kitchen into the hallway and opening it through to the combined dining living area the space seems larger than it is. Love the splash of lime green adding life to an otherwise white canvas.

It must be kitchen renovation season. We’re gotten a few reader submissions of their kitchens in the past week so I thought I’d blog them all today. It’s kitchen Tuesday folks!

Welcome to Paul’s teeny tiny New York kitchen! He worked some magic on the space, transforming it from REALLY awful to funky and modern for just $285!! (He’s got the breakdown of costs on his blog). I had to poke fun in my response to his email, saying no one cooks in NY anyway (doesn’t everyone use their stoves to stash off season clothes?), but he claims he cooks in his kitchen often. And I bet he’ll be cooking even more now that it’s not such an eye sore. Great job Paul!!

… with a massive price tag. Ouch Australian house prices are crazy. Pinch its cheeks so cute Clifton Hill cottage for auction. Link here while it lasts.

Elizabeth lives in a 350 square-foot apartment in the lower east side of Manhattan. YES, it’s that small! However she and her boyfriend have managed to make it look cute, inviting and cozy! And best of all they are very happy in their small home. To find out more about why they live in such a tiny space you can head to her blog In Between Seams. Could you do it? Even with the pay off of living in Manhattan?

I have a thing for modular housing. Pavilions, kits, pods. Love ’em. Small spaces that alone or in combination allow you to configure your dream layout in confined spaces or the big wide yonder. Small footprints. Small impact. Small spaces just right for big ideas. This cutie is from kitHAUS and if you click over to their site you can enter their competition to hatch your next big idea staying in this kitHAUS at Arroyo Grande, CA. Look at that view!
