"Last Word"-Closet Case

Wednesday, June 03, 2009

SUSIE GHARIB: And finally tonight, it's been said that good things come in small packages. That's certainly the case for a Florida architect. While Sergio Santos has an impressive portfolio that includes large buildings and college dorms, it's his smallest project that getting lots of attention. In order to save money, he's living in a small closet. The 77 square foot area is a very small space. The shelving unit doubles as a staircase for the bunk bed/television room. And Paul, the answer to the question on everyone's mind and I'm sure you're thinking it too -- Santos shares a bathroom with his neighbor. PAUL KANGAS: The guy likes spacious homes. I think the biggest room in that place is the room for improvement.

GHARIB: Yes, claustrophobic, right?

KANGAS: Yeah, right.
