Domestic Transformer Designer: Gary Chang

What appears to be an open-plan studio actually contains many rooms, because of sliding wall units, fold-down tables and chairs, and the habitual kinesis of a resident in a small space. As Mr. Chang put it, “I glide around.” → nytimes.com Posted: 01/15/2009 digg | del.icio.us | stumble | email this
