Eight Rooms in 420 Square Feet?

That’s the premise behind Graham Hill’s Life Edited apartment in NYC, a remarkable feat of engineering that could be a template for similar small-but-efficient living environments in our urban future. Michael Hession of Gizmodo reported recently on this unique space and there’s a video tour as well, demonstrating how everything pulls out, snaps on and comes together.Not everyone’s idea of the dream apartment, perhaps. But you have to admire the ingenuity.

Stunning Remodel in Echo Park with Bonus Rooms & Views!
Offered at: $849,000

Status: Sold
Type: Single Family / Bedrooms: 3 / Baths: 2
Living Area: 1,598 Square Ft. / Lot Size: 4,966 Square Ft.

The artist+builders of Re-Inhabit take their special blend of reclaimed design with sustainable elements to new heights in their latest offering, a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home that has a fascinating story to tell. Tucked into the hills of Echo Park, the residence features an open floor plan, expansive outdoor space and shimmering city-lights views. The large Master Bedroom has its own large deck, while a second deck off the kitchen will be your private sanctuary or al fresco dining spot when entertaining. The rooms are generously proportioned, and a bonus attic space can be used as an office, playroom or den. This year-long remodel and restoration uses the majority of the original structure by repurposing materials in useful and ingenious ways. Wood siding from the former broken-down garage has become the tread of an interior stairway. Lath from demolished plaster walls has been put back into use. All of this has been done with the care and craftsmanship that Re-Inhabit is known for. A rare and understated showpiece, it is a home with beauty, grace and a compelling narrative all its own.

Dramatic Drop in Local Housing Inventory

From KPCC’s morning radio show “Take Two”… “It was a buyer’s market: low prices, low interest rates, desperate sellers. But talk with just about anyone wandering around open houses each Sunday and you’ll hear a different refrain: What happened?! Prices here jumped more than 23 percent last month… and foreclosure filings dropped a stunning 77 percent… All of a sudden finding a house to buy isn’t so easy. Chris Thornberg, an economist and founding partner of Beacon Economics, is here to explain.” (Click link for story and 7 minute radio clip).
