Description

---

Architect Chang has lived in the same 32 square metre apartment since he was 14 years old. Living in a tiny rented space with a large family was not uncommon in 1960s and 70s Hong Kong. More than a simple interior design story, this book illustrates the transformation of a living space and how people respond to different spatial settings.
