I'm completely in favour of lack of censorship, one of the things I like about this blog even when people write things to which I strongly object. And yes, you're right that one thing derp and I (and many others here I believe) agree on is preposterously overpriced real estate and the deleterious effects of same. Thanks again for providing a forum where many of us who concur about this can share information, and, not least, vent! I actually have a friend that lives in one of these. Very efficient/minimalist design and layout, but the kitchen space leaves a lot to be desired. There are only two elements and I don't recall seeing an oven [could be wrong though]. The fridge was mini-bar size, but worked for him [the only thing in his fridge was vodka and mix]. Does the place work for him? Yes. Personally, I wouldn't want to be in that space for more than 1-2 years.
