The Dwelle.ing Brings Charm to Residential Downsizing

— August 23, 2010 — Art & Design
The 'Dwelle.ing' line of miniature residences combines architecture, interior and furniture design into a charming livable bundle. The UK firm known as 'Dwelle' has launched a set of four prefabricated spaces between 7.5 and 24 square meters in plan.

'Big Dwelle.ing', 'Little Dwelle.ing', 'Office' and 'Beach Dwelle.ing' make up a delightful collection of compact and functional living spaces. The three smaller modules can be purchased at the cost of car, and occupy virtually the same area as a parking space.
