Downsize: Living Large in a Small House
<p><strong>Best-selling author Sheri Koones presents the hottest trend in the housing market. The 25 small houses presented in <em>Downsize</em> </strong>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. <strong>All are 2,000 sq. ft. or less.</strong> The featured houses show how to use space efficiently through such strategies as:</p> <ul> <li><strong>creative storage space</strong></li> <li><strong>multi-purpose rooms</strong></li> <li><strong>pocket and barn doors</strong></li> <li><strong>integrating smaller appliances</strong></li> </ul> <p><strong>These exceptional houses show how small can be comfortable, practical, energy efficient―and beautiful.</strong></p>
