Being movile and multiple, m³ is a space that adapts to the different needs and customs of the individuals who use them. The proposal, part of three types of heterogeneous people, of profession, and different lifestyle, requiring different ways to occupy the space: an executive, a student and a graphic designer.

On one side, the executive, which will only inhabit the apartment at night and, eventually weekends, will be located in the cube close to the living area. On the other side, the student, that will inhabit the space part time, will be located in the intermediate area of the house.
