The Not So Big House

Sarah Susanka

Sarah Susanka contends that people are naturally drawn to intimate spaces. Large structures inspired by outdated patterns tend to result in houses that just don't work. In The Not So Big House, she proposes clear guidelines for creating homes that serve spiritual needs as well as material requirements. Topics covered include designing for specific lifestyles, budgeting, building a home from scratch, and using energy–efficient construction. With more than 200 color photographs as well as floor plans, the book is perfect for homeowners ready to rethink their space. Susanka says to evaluate what makes you feel at home and let your activities define your rooms.
