All over the world there
is an increasing
tendency to live in a
smaller space, a lot of
this of course is due to
the hike in house prices
in recent times but also
because many people want
to live a life that's
less cluttered.
In Blueprint Small -
Creative Ways to Live
With Less by Michele
Kodis looks at a number
of house or living
spaces where people have
chosen to live in 1500
square feet or less,
from the modern loft
space to the suburban
home in fact all manner
of houses are looked at.
Each home gets several
pages devoted to it,
from a fine blueprint
plan of each home to
several gorgeous colour
photographs and Kodis
also discusses the
benefits of each one.
There are some truly
stunning homes on
display in this book
from a beautiful block
of closely situated
cottages to your typical
New York loftspace.
Anyone interested in
design will find much to
enjoy in this book and
of course for anyone who
already lives in a
smaller spaced home or
plans to downsize then
this book is one
complete how to
manual.
Blueprint
Small is a very
attractive addition to
the shelf on the
bookcase.
