This 33 square foot wooden hut is a concept built by Swedish firm Tengbom Architects. It's meant to be an affordable student housing solution called a smart student unit. It packs five different types of space into one small house.

Developed for students at Sweden's University of Lund, each hut is made from cross-laminated wood. It fits a sleeping loft, bathroom, kitchen, garden and patio into the layout. There's a fold down kitchen table, built in shelving and storage and the smart design really reduces rent by a whole lot.
