adAPT NYC is a pilot program that was launched in July 2012 to develop a new model of housing—micro-units. tiNY is a proposal for 236 square foot homes in a single-loaded corridor tower. The approach affords a unique building identity and an opportunity to make small homes desirable.

These Adult-Sized Loft Beds are Designed for Tiny Homes and Micro Units

Roberto Gil's collection of loft beds combine several pieces of furniture into one, offering an ideal solution for spaces pressed on square-footage.

The tl;dr is that the lofted bed/sofa unit you see here will set you back about $6000.  

But it or another piece from the versatile collection may be just the solution for some spaces which would make it an investment worth considering.
