A compact kitchen that takes up 2'x2' area when not in use.

The tower can be placed against a wall as it expands in three directions.

This may be of some interest to those thinking of going micro or just downsizing.

Since I would rather have a kitchen than just about any other room in the house, I have no interest in packing it up.

But I can definitely see good use for this, particularly if you live in a small space and don't really use your kitchen much.

this is pretty cool, but I could never live as compact as I have seen some are doing. I guess that if you are not home often, it is a great idea to reduce the size of your home to teeny-tiny, but I love being around the house.

I always wonder who these people are who can live in micro homes.
