Cool Houses in Small Spaces.

Do you remember that time when we met and I awkwardly hit on you and you told me that there was no way in hell and so then I was all like, “Well in that case, can we talk about quirky Japanese architecture for awhile?” and you were all like, “Sure, I have nothing better to do”?

Well I was thinking about that yesterday when I heard a story on NPR about some of the especially interesting work that Japanese designers have recently been doing with very small spaces.

Here is a link to the story.

Even if you don’t want to read/listen to it, at least check out the pictures. They look kind of like Ikea bomb shelters of the future.

I love that there are people out there in the world doing really good and interesting work, whatever that work might be.

The keys are mightier than the sword.

Apparently you can write a novel on your cell phone! And it will be read by Japanese teenage girls! On their cell phones!

Oh the circle of life.

Read it up! Like you’re a Japanese school girl!
