Mini studios were designed and explored by people in east coast. Initially it was by Arcade in Providence, R.I., in a old building . Condos as small as the 225 square-foot dwellings she began hawking in 2014. The size of 225 square-feet is about the size of a hotel room and is what most single millennials want. These rooms have built in furniture. A microwave, refrigerator and a dishwasher are included.
