Have you ever kept your sweaters in an oven? Or your books in the microwave? This week, San Francisco supervisors may say “yes” to developers who want to build apartments as small as 220 square feet. We discuss the prospect of these tiny units coming on the market, and talk to home design gurus about how to live well in a small space.
