The idea of living in a scaled-down space like an attic might have some people feeling a little bit closed in, but the Harbour Attic by Gosplan design is expertly modelled to deliver all the necessary amenities to accommodate one or two people perfectly.
Described as an exercise in making use of every inch, the designers explain, "That led to a custom-cut apartment, where each room is a furniture: after you have used it, you can close it.” What's created is a small, but cozy and functional space that rivals some of the most expansive homes I've come across.
The Harbour Attic by Gosplan is located in a small fishing village in Camogil, which is located in the larger region of Genoa in Italy.
