Can You Live In 27 Cubic Feet?

This video from http://treehugger.com raises some interesting questions. I know when I do seasonal work, we use less than 100 square feet per person in our dorm. But then, we are fed in the employee dinning room, do laundry in the laundry room, have a central lounge, and share a bathroom. Just goes to show there are many acceptable ways to downsize our living space. As mentioned in the page dedicated to this experiement, the psychology is being studied. Claustrophobia is a real issue. Personal areas combined with communal areas are possibilities. Independent facilities, downsized and multi purposed are others.
