“LEGO home” is the term favorited to describe the Barcelona home of photographer Christian Schallerton<\/strong>. Inspired by the stowaway furniture he saw\u00a0in boats in his childhood, Japanese design and a desire “to nest,” Schallerton retrofitted a 258 square-foot apartment stories above the hip Born district to accommodate\u00a0one man and lots of living.<\/p>\n

\"Barcelona<\/a><\/p>\n

Before Schallerton inherited the property, it was dodgy. But Schallerton saw potential in the walkup.<\/p>\n

\"Lego-Apartment-1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This was\u00a0where the innovative LEGO strategy came\u00a0in\u2014to use the facets of\u00a0the apartment, the occupant must build them.\u00a0When the apartment is not assembled, it remains\u00a0an empty space. When engaged, the apartment comes to life.<\/p>\n

\"Lego-Apartment-10-702x414\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Clickable cabinets line one side of the space. These spring-loaded compartments open to reveal a kitchen, refrigerator, closet space and room for sports equipment. To cook or have lunch, a table folds down from the opposite wall and to rest on a pillar-shaped support.<\/p>\n

\"Lego-Apartment-8\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The bed is stored underground, but slides trundle-like from beneath the patio.\u00a0Halfway revealed, the mattress functions as a daybed from\u00a0which a full-motion mounted television can be seen.<\/p>\n

\"Lego-Apartment-9\"<\/a><\/p>\n

While hiding seems the design’s\u00a0chief philosophy, the bathroom is all about show-and-tell.\u00a0A glass box stands on one end of the apartment, containing a sink and shower head. Luckily, the toilet is tucked away.<\/p>\n

\"Lego-Apartment-61\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In a video<\/a>, Schallerton credited his trim physique to his “active apartment.” He has since moved out \u2014 after entering a relationship, Schallerton found the pad\u00a0unsuitable for two.<\/p>\n

\"Lego-Apartment-7\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Architect Barbara Appolloni<\/a> designed the\u00a0space.<\/p>\n
