Senior in plant piology Allison Durham lives in a tiny apartment attached to the N.C. State greenhouses on Method Rd. Her apartment has one room and a bathroom. The main room is comprised of a lofted bed with a living space underneath, a desk and a small kitchen. Durham doesn't mind living in such a small space because it is adjacent to the 22 greenhouses she takes care of. Her only complaint is that her oven is so small she can't fit a pizza pan inside it.
