Extreme transformer home in Hong Kong: Gary Chang's 24 rooms in 1
Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated cities in the world and its severe shortage of land made living there relatively difficult. Most of the apartments there are really small and cramped up , families usually live in houses that are around 600 square foot. The YouTube video above which was shared by my group's leader , Krishna , showed an Architect named Gary Chang , turning his small little apartment ,which is just over 340 square foot in area , into a home full of hidden rooms. His method of movable walls using tracks installed on the ceilings is simple ,low-tech but yet very effective and the design is also very contemporary. This can be the future of maximizing space in micro-apartments and will be especially useful in other places such as Tokyo , London.
