apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I wish they'd picture it full of stuff/in use.

Small kitchens make a lot of sense for a lot of people. The developers of America apparently have not figured that out yet.
I'm looking for a small 1-bedroom condo (because that's all I can afford) in DC and everything I look at that's been renovated has a HUGE kitchen, at the expense of living space in the other rooms. Oftentimes there is no room for any sort of dining table... are you supposed to be making elaborate multic-course meals for guests and eating them on the sofa? How many young single people who would be buying a 1-BR condo are spending a lot of time cooking? Most people I know use their kitchens to make coffee and store beer in the fridge.
How about smaller kitchens that would leave space for a mini office? (Computers, the internet, printers... have developers heard of these cutting-edge new developments?)

This is the grooviest thing I never knew about. Now I'm hungry.
