The World’s Smallest Apartments: 16 ft² Coffin Homes in Hong Kong

We visit Hong Kong’s subdivided coffin homes, where residents live in spaces as small as 16 square feet without proper ventilation, sunlight, or room to stand. We meet several residents, hear about their difficult living conditions, and compare these homes with the city’s expensive apartments and overcrowded housing system. We also spend a day with Wang, visiting a temple and market, eating meals from vouchers, and seeing how he manages daily life in his tiny home.
