A Maple Ridge builder鈥檚 tiny passion project might have some sizeable applications.

John Anjo is the founder/director of . He has worked in housing for 25 years, and his core business is granny flats and homes for First Nations people.

Typically, the buildings he constructs are in the 300 square foot range, but recently he built a 72 square foot office.

Anjo took a good look at the just completed portable work space and said to himself 鈥� 鈥業鈥檓 going to make a home out of this.鈥�

鈥淭hey all thought I was crazy to try to fit everything in,鈥� Anjo said of his colleagues when he presented the idea.

But fit it in, he did.

The Yocto, named after the smallest official metric system prefix (10 x 24), is a fully operative home.

Neatly tucked in a space which would hardly fit this sentence is a fridge, stove, microwave, sink, a full-size shower and toilet, a single bed, a clothes rack, a stool, a heater, a water heater, and lights both inside-and-out of the unit.

鈥淵ou can drop it anywhere, plug it in, hook it up to a septic line, and a garden hose, and you鈥檙e good to go,鈥� Anjoa said.

While it was only put together as a novelty, he believes there are numerous uses for the tiny residence.

He said it would work for students living in their parent鈥檚 house who want a little more space, remote vacation rentals, or writing cabins.

鈥淚t鈥檚 functional, so there might be a market for this,鈥� Anjo said.

The Yocto is expected to be sold for $24,900.
