C It's not much , but it' s home. Francis Chan, an engineer, lives in Hampstead, north London, in a flat that' s just 4ft wide by 2lft long. He loves it. Tiny though it is, it has got all the comforts. Peter Baynes, Chan ' s architect(建筑师) , has achieved a clever piece of design, according to architectural experts. The Chan mini-house was built on what was once a path down the side of a big Victorianhouse. Not an inch of space is wasted. When you step in through the front door, you ' re standing in the shower, on Britain ' s only self-cleansing doormatc自动清洁门垫) . A door opens on to an equally tiny toilet with washbasin. Two steps further in comes the kitc hen, complete with full-sized cooker and fridge, and washer/ drier. A worktop folds down from the wall. Another step and you' re into the dining/office area. Four people can sit here for. dinner, says Chan as he sets the table-top into place. He even has a fold-down drawing-board for when he' s working at home. The bed is hidden under a cover board right at the back. 'I don' t even have to make the bed, ' Chan says. 'I just put the cover down. ' Chan's business suits hang neatly on the wall over the bed. Daylight comes in through the skylight. The house feels like a very small boat and Chan admits he toyed with the idea of naming it the ' boat-house ' . 'It cost around￡ 4,700 to build last year. Now it' s been valued at￡ 30,000. It proves that good design doesn' t need to cost more. It just needs a lot of care,' says Chan. 64.
