The landlord transformed his building into 55 separate living “capsules.” Each room functions as a bedroom, living room, bathroom and kitchen — all in one. That means a resident’s toilet is never too far away from his or her dining space.
The story of the capsule apartment has been spreading beyond China due to photos that were snapped on Wednesday — and published by HAP/Quirky China/Rex Feat.
The residents’ occupations vary considerably — from local retail workers to construction material salesmen.
Young workers in Wuhan — like young workers in New York — have encountered financial roadblocks on their paths to independent living. High rent and low wages have forced some young professionals to consider these multipurpose quarters the preferable option.
