100 Pictures from Hong Kong

If you are interested in viewing snapshots of life in Hong Kong's oldest public housing residence, check out German photographer Michael Wolf's newest collection on his website, here.

The project, titled 100 x 100, contains 100 pictures of the residents of the 100-square foot flats.

The collection is fascinating. Most of these tiny flat owners have a television. While some of the flats are amazingly stuffed with various possessions—magazines, clothes, fans, etc.—other flats are surprisingly minimalist. One resident even has a roommate! Apartments of this size are not necessarily typical for the majority of Hong Kong residents but this collection could be an eye-opener for most Westerners.
