Sounds cool, but the fire concern is very real and not so much flames as it is being unable to escape the smoke.

- beat 8y agoTrue. But like I said, there's not a lot to burn... just furniture and the kitchen cabinets. Everything else is concrete and metal. Of course, if there's a forest fire, you don't want to be on the mountain regardless.
- saltcured 8y agoPeople die in places like what you have described, and that's why there are codes against it. A bed or sofa on fire is enough to turn that place into a combination gas chamber and oven. Rooms need more than one egress for redundancy, since fire and smoke in another room may block your normal transit.
- i80and 8y agoModern furniture creates extremely toxic and hot fires. That's a pretty serious risk.
