For thousands of people this is the size of their home

Great campaign from the French Fondation Abbé Pierre (Wikipedia) which was launched last november.
The campaign is meant to raise awareness among the general public and the government of the bad housing crisis in France.

To bluntly show that thousands of people in France have as little space to live as a car in the street, posters of real-size 7 m² (the size of a parking space) apartment were stuck near symbolic sites in Paris (The National Assembly, The Senate, The Court Hall, The City Hall and The Paris Stock Exchange).
The billboards shows the space of a real-size 12 m² apartment.

12 m² pour une affiche, c’est normal, mais pour une famille? Agissons.
12 m² is right for a billboard, But for a family? Let’s take action.
