Kenchikukagu Folds Whole Rooms Into Rolling Boxes

In today’s market of over-priced real estate, the average apartment is basically a man-sized shoebox. Now you can make the most out of the space thanks to Japanese company Atelier OPA and designer Toshihiko Suzuki, who have introduced a series of folding “rooms” called Kenchikukagu.
The innovative line features a kitchen, bedroom and office that all fold up into compact cabinets that can be wheeled away for easy storage. For about $7,500 each, you can buy one now on Amazon Japan. See how it all unfolds in the video below…

my guess is if you can afford one of these things, lack of living space is not really a pressing problem.
that said, the foldaway guest room is great. they should’ve donated 50,000 of them to the superdome after katrina. or put them in jail.

In fact lack of living space is a “great problem” in Japan, not in America obviously.
