Lego-style apartment transforms into infinite spaces
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
When Christian Schallert isn't cooking, dressing, sleeping or eating, his 24 square meter (258 square feet) apartment looks like an empty cube. To use a piece of furniture, he has to build it. Located in Barcelona's hip Born district, the tiny apartment is a remodeled pigeon loft. Designed by architect Barbara Appolloni, Christian says the space was inspired by the space-saving furniture aboard boats, as well as the clean lines of a small Japanese home. Christian sold his apartment and has reinvested his money and small space design ideas in opening a small hotel in Barcelona: www.hotelbrummell.com Christian Schallert, photographer: www.instagram.com/christianschallert Spanish-version tour with architect Barbara Appolloni: http://faircompanies.com/videos/view/un-mini-apartamento-que-se-transforma-en-infinitos-espacios/ Architect Barbara Appolloni: http://www.barbaraappolloni.com/works_christianHouse.html Original story here: http://faircompanies.com/videos/view/lego-style-apartment-transforms-into-infinite-spaces/

This is hel on earth for me. I normally forget the cupboards open and hurt my self on them now and then. But living in that apartment I would be doing it all the time... !!! ... Though I still love it. I mean you do not need more space than this if you know how to handle it. Functionalism = <3.

So, he invites a friend, and he tells him: -Come on in, I'll take a shower in the meantime.

I love this set up so much

small apartment or flat can saving money, like i am now. just average life living in 1room flat which is only 36sqm :)

'Hey dude, can I take a shower?'
''Yeah sure, go ahead''
'Uhm.. you're just gonna sit there..?'
Other then that, this is one of the most epic appartments I've ever seen! -
I am claustrophobic.
-
This is incredible.
I love it.
Doesn't that making those hidden spaces cost more? Nope?? -
All nice, but wrong door for shower. its see through. So, if he has visitors, they will see him take a shower naked. anyway.

You are a great creative guy! Love the look and I would love for my son to design something like this! Great work! No you are lucky you don't have the fat gene and in my family we hate skinny people like you! :) Fat is all genetics unless you abuse yourself! Again we love your place!

It's pretty awesome, the only problem i see is the lack of space for the PC Master race.
