What is Micro Housing?
A micro apartment ideally consists of a sleeping space, a common sit-out space, a kitchenette, a bathroom and storage that is designed to camouflage with the space. Space saving furniture such as beds that can be lifted back into the wall, multifunctional furniture or extremely small or hidden appliances are key elements that support a micro apartment. There are times when residents may have complete access to a full kitchen, living room, housekeeping facilities and a garden.

The concept of micro-homes is catching on in major cities that are facing a serious space crunch. The notion here is to accommodate more units on a lesser floor space and at an affordable price point. Clustered developments such as these are found in dense core neighbourhood or next to a major transit route.
