Best-selling author Sheri Koones presents the hottest trend in the
housing market. The 25 small houses presented in Downsize are owned
by people who have made a conscious decision to downsize from a larger
home to a smaller home--or who just decided to build small in the first
place. Some of the houses are new (site-built or prefab), others are
remodels. All are 2,000 sq. ft. or less. The featured houses show
how to use space efficiently through such strategies as:
- creative storage space
- multi-purpose rooms
- pocket and barn doors
- integrating smaller appliances
These exceptional houses show how small can be comfortable, practical,
energy efficient--and beautiful.
