The manipulation of light and space makes the "Penguin House" in Tokyo seem much larger than it actually is.

That's way cool.

I may try the same thing on my Toyota Yaris and see if it will turn into a Ford Expedition.

I'd totally live in this if it was cheaper than your typical place.

I lived in a former one-car garage, converted to a bachelor pad, for six years... not so good. Floorspace of about 200 sq.ft., eight foot ceiling, kitchenette in one corner. "Like living in a submarine", I said wryly. Cold in winter, bookoo spiders in summer. I didn't realize at the time but the place had a distinct depressive influence. Moral: low rent has its own costs.

Raskolnikov can confirm that one.

for anyone interested in stuff like this, i highly recommend this book:
http://www.amazon.com/Modern-Japanese-House-Naomi-Pollock/dp/071484554X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1206265563&sr=1-1

full of great design by japanese architects finding new solutions for working with odd spaces.

I love high ceilings My bedroom ceiling is vaulted and has a gigantic window with two smaller windows on top (which totally sucks when you are trying to sleep in, but is otherwise nice) and then some of the other main rooms have vaulted ceilings as well. Yay for having a 6 ft 7 in tall dad!

That would stink if they spilled something off the kitchen counter. It would take ages to clean up.

I don't think there's any reason to try that with the Yaris, it's quite big enough already. We managed to fit in 4 people, 4 guitars, 1 synthesizer and a stand for it, a drum set excluding the bass, a 12-pack of beer and still we're comfortable enough to drive around 62 miles to a gig. Couldn't fit the guitar cabs and amps though. =)

The Yaris holds at least 50 clowns.

Not necessarily. What if it's an infant you don't want?

Argh, i couldn't stand living in that house, i get the urge to punch the walls for some reason, probably because a man made design is manipulating my mind :3 aside from that, Is naice
