The art of living in small spaces



After the miners were freed from the Chilean mine and after recently reading about how the Russians are studying people's reactions from being confined in tight spaces for a long period of time so they can better plan for a one way manned trip to Mars, I have been self-prodded to learning more about how people live and work in small spaces.

The miners in Chile would be a good resource because of their first hand experiences. We can also learn a lot from the space programs/tests conducted around the world.

To my delight, I found an interesting article written by a lady named Claire Wolfe who lives in a very small home. She says that living well in small spaces has four parts:

1. Coping
2. Building
3. Gadgeting
4. Decorating
