Bettye Aoki — Japan’s Coffin Houses

I have been holding on to this one for a while, but check out these houses that are being dubbed “coffin houses” because of their small size. At just over 8 feet long and 4-5 five feet tall these “micro apartments” rent for as much as the equivalent of $600 US dollars a month! None of them have windows in them and they all share a bathroom.
With rising population level and increased urban density we are beginning to see more and more of these type of housing solutions in places like Japan.
