Architect James Law from Hong Kong has turned water pipes into tiny apartments in a project called Opod Tube Housing System. /VCG Photo
The tiny tube apartments consist of two pieces of water pipes, each measuring a little more than 2.5 meters in diameter. The tubes can house one or two people and have approximately 91 square meters of living space. /VCG Photo
Despite their small size, the tubes are equipped with a living room containing a sofa that doubles as a bed, a bathroom and plenty of storage space for clothes and personal items. /VCG Photo
The limited land supply in Hong Kong, one of the most expensive places to live on the earth, has caused major housing problems. /VCG Photo
The architect was inspired to design the capsules to ease housing congestion and provide younger generation with affordable living alternatives. /VCG Photo
