The Not So Big House books by Sarah Susanka, bring to light a new way of thinking about what makes a place feel like home—characteristics that many people desire of their homes and their lives, but haven't known how to verbalize.
The inspiration for The Not So Big House came
from a growing awareness that new houses were getting bigger and
bigger but with little redeeming design merit. The problem is
that comfort has almost nothing to do with how big a space is.
It is attained, rather, by tailoring our houses to fit the way
we really live, and to the scale and proportions of our human
form. Two must-read articles about this topic include Cultural
Creatives: The Rise of Integral Culture, by Dr. Paul Ray and a
recent interview with William McDonough in Newsweek magazine
entitled Designing The Future.
