Report Copyright Violation | 21.5 Square Foot Pods In Bee-Hive Community For People In Spain To Live In For $232 a Month; Potential Plans 21.5 Square Foot Pods In Bee-Hive Community For People In Spain To Live In For $232 a Month; Potential Plans "A Barcelona company sparked outrage in Spain on Thursday with a plan to rent tiny pods where low income workers would live side-by-side like bees in a hive for as little as 200 euros ($232) a month
"The company argues the project called Haibu -- which means beehive in Japanese -- is a solution to a shortage of affordable housing in the Mediterranean city but Barcelona city hall has refused to issue a licence for it, saying such tiny accommodation is unfit for humans.
"Fortunately piling up people is prohibited. The law does not allow this type of dwelling," Barcelona mayor Ada Colau, a former housing and anti-eviction activist, told reporters on Thursday.
"Despite the lack of a licence, the company, Haibu 4.0. has already started building the first eight pods which it expects will be finished by the end of the month at an empty business premise.
"Each 2.4 square metres (21.5 square feet) pod will be equipped with a bed, TV, storage space and power plugs, following the module of capsule accommodation geared for tourists which are popular in Japan.
"The project will include a communal area with a kitchen with several microwaves, lounge and bathrooms, and the monthly rent would include utility bills and Wi-Fi." [ link to www.yahoo.com (secure)] |
