Making the best usage of the available space at homes is not everyone?s cup-of-tea. Primarily designed for a loft lacking a place for a proper bedroom, the architect Dan Hisel’s Z-Box is a 12 foot squared, steel-framed and freestanding 10-feet tall box made especially to fit small places. Lined with douglas fir wood, the Z-Box features a sleeping area, night tables, clothes closet, lamps, and shelves backlit with windows. The translucent polycarbonate exterior wall holds a bookshelf, and a small dog bed.

The Z-Box gives answer to the two of the main questions of the owners of newly renovated wide-open loft; where are we going to sleep? Where are we going to put all this stuff? The basics idea is to create another room inside a room thereby dividing the area in two. I know you loved the idea but remember, the Z-Box costs $18K.
