Tour the 258-sq.-ft. Transformer Apartment

We've been writing a lot about super-small spaces lately. First there was Felice Cohen, who bunks in a 90-square-foot apartment. Then we discovered Luke, a dude who lives large in only 78 square feet.

Well, our new favorite in the can-you-top-this small-space sweepstakes is Christian Schallert. At 258 square feet, his apartment is practically palatial by comparison, but whereas those other folks make do with half-size fridges and hot plates, Schallert has all the amenities: a full kitchen, double bed, dining room, even a terrace.

Like a Transformer toy, his apartment swings out, flips up and unfolds to turn into a high-style living space. If you don't believe us, watch the video and let him show you.
