I had a mate living in a modern council apartment for a bit - the whole damned thing was literally the size of my loungeroom. That was not a n apartment, that was a human storage locker.

Shockingly, it was not good for his mental health

Yeah it's shit. Near my parents there is a bunch of old housing commission houses. 1 bedroom houses that are bigger than most 2 bedroom apartments. They need to build them with more space stacked up. Do that all around inner city train and tram stops and you get a lot of desirable supply.
