Visiting Graham Hill's Amazing LifeEdited Apartment

Where most people have to make lots of compromises in comfort and quality to live in New York, and give up a lot of the things that people have in bigger homes, Graham has demonstrated that you don't have to give up a damn thing.

Gizmodo Visits Graham Hill's Amazing LifeEdited Apartment

From Gizmodo:

It is the project of Graham Hill, entrepreneur and treehugger.com founder, to come up with an ideal New York apartment—one with a small footprint, both physically and environmentally, and one that offers just as much beauty and functionality as a pad multiple times its size..... When you walk in, you encounter what is, at first glance, a small studio apartment. Within that cube are actually 8 functional spaces. The living room and office become the bedroom with a tug of a bookshelf. Open one of the closets and you'll find 10 stackable chairs that go around a telescopic dining table for large dinner parties. An entire guest room with bunk-beds and a closet is revealed behind a wall that slides out on tracks. And of course, a well-equipped kitchen and bathroom await.

Nothing is the Next Big Thing

When I started TreeHugger in 2004, the stereotypical "environmentalist" wore torn bellbottoms, drank out of mason jars and smelled faintly of patchouli oil. Don’t get me wrong, this was not a fair description, nor would there be anything wrong if it were. But it was a stereotype lodged in the collective consciousness that kept environmentalism fringy.
