About this item
The revolutionary, bestselling classic that redefined American home design―discover why "Not So Big" is the inspiring, money-saving blueprint for the way we live today, making this the perfect gift for every homeowner and homeowner-to-be.
For over two decades, Sarah Susanka's groundbreaking work has been the definitive call for a new kind of architecture: one built around quality, not quantity.
The Not So Big House offers a powerful, inspiring argument against oversized, inefficient homes and provides the practical plan for creating spaces that are beautifully designed, deeply comfortable, and truly reflect your lifestyle.
This book is theone book to buy if you are planning to build, remodel, or simply rethink your living space because it shows you how to prioritize elements that genuinely matter: Inspiring Design: Move beyond wasted square footage and discover how to design rooms with meaningful detail, integrated storage, and tailored comfort. See how to create "settle-down places" and versatile spaces that genuinely accommodate modern, flexible living. Money-Saving Wisdom: Learn how scaling back the footprint allows you to redirect funds toward higher-quality materials, better craftsmanship, and energy efficiency, resulting in a home that costs less to maintain and brings greater satisfaction. Timeless Philosophy: This isn't about tiny houses; it's about smarter houses. The principles of "Not So Big" design―such as open planning, specialized spaces, and purposeful connections―have become the sustainable foundation of modern residential architecture.
Beautifully photographed and filled with actionable concepts, this volume is an ideal great gift for newlyweds, first-time homeowners, or anyone approaching retirement. It’s the essential guide for building a home―or transforming an existing one―that is as beautiful as it is responsible, proving that less house can mean more life.
