- In his talk, Graham Hill talk about how people can design their lives for more happiness with less stuff.
Graham Hill is the founder of LifeEdited, dedicated to helping people design their lives for more happiness with less stuff. When he started the company in 2010, it brought the ideas of his previous project, the eco-blog and vlog TreeHugger.com, into design and architecture. (The TreeHugger team joined the Discovery Communications network as a part of their Planet Green initiative, and Hill now makes appearances on the green-oriented cable channel.)
Before Treehugger, Hill studied architecture and design (his side business is making those cool ceramic Greek coffee cups). His other company, ExceptionLab, is devoted to creating sustainable prototypes - think lamps made from recycled blinds and ultra-mod planters that are also air filters.
Hill is the author of Weekday Vegetarian, available as a TED Book on Amazon and Apple’s iBooks.

100% on point. Be present, not just behind a screen, embrace the preciousness of being able to experience the blessed moments of life, even if far and few between.
You are so RIGHT!!!! I so agree!!! Wish more would consider your thinking!!
This is honestly really eye opening as someone who grew up with cell phones being regular since elemenrary. I was born 2001
Less is more. Couldn't agree more! Great talk!
So good, and unfortunately, things seem to be getting worse instead of better. Everyone needs this reminder.
I love that fact that we live in such a stupid crazy consumer focused society, which is so obsessed with fame & new gadgets, that common $%@#ing sense words like this suddenly come as a breath of fresh air to the majority us.
I'm extremely interested in buying one of these apartments.
Had to do away with Facebook and Twitter that was draining my life and now I can read a book a week
I like the movement towards less materialism. But how is cramming people into smaller and smaller boxes going to improve the life of the average human being? You're moving closer and closer towards something like a jail cell being the average home. I think we can find smarter ways to consume less without shoving ourselves in tiny boxes.
It is mainly because you and majority of us grew up with a personal preference of living in a big house. The apartment idea is only one part of the problem regarding over-population and especially in the cities.( and FYI he actually travels place to place and works online so it is pointless to purchase an asset that he rarely spends time within). I currently live in a small house and I had lived in a large dwelling before, and I truly believe that we have more things worth spending time with rather than the house.
I'm tired of these poor little rich videos....these people advise things and do not practice them....they are wealthy people giving advice on how to live....
Like in jail
This man is a total fraud as to his sincerity. He is just cashing in on the ludicrous price of property and dividing it up into tiny apartments which squeeze ever poorer people into ridiculously small spaces, out of which he makes lots of money and calls it a better lifestyle.
