WOULD YOU LIVE IN THIS TINY HOUSE??
Squeezed next to a centuries-old shrine in this historical city stands a slight, two-story abode that looks modern, but is meant to embody the spirit of Kyoto's homes of the past.
The all-white structure with a dramatic glass façade is long and thin, curving slightly to the right, and is comprised of a main living area just over 6½ feet wide, with two wings on each side. In one wing is a little alcove that serves as the children's play area; in the other is the bathroom. The back of the home holds the kitchen, while a spiral staircase leads to a second room and a loft, measuring about 6½ feet by 7½ feet at its narrowest, that serves as the shared sleeping room for the family of four.
