A startup called Bumblebee Spaces is trying to make micro apartments more appealing by adding movable furniture. Beds, wardrobe and drawers are stored up on the ceiling, to be lowered quietly on white suspension cords at the touch of a tablet, like a scene change on a theatre stage. In theory this frees up floor space. — 1843 Magazine
The Economist's 1843 Magazine delves into Bumblebee, a new San Francisco startup that aims to imbue tiny apartments with movable architectural elements.

Sounds like added exterior wall height, which very quickly adds to building cost. And I wonder whether this would really be a lasting livable solution.
Shut up and get back in the ceiling. :)
isn't "new startup" redundant?
