Insights and Ideas for the New American Home Please scroll down the page for the "Add to Order" button. Why are we drawn more to smaller, more personal spaces than to larger, more expansive ones? At parties, why do we spend more time in the kitchen and family rooms than we do in the formal living and dining rooms? What makes the sunny, intimate breakfast nook more inviting than the vaulted spaciousness of a cathedral-ceiling great room? The Not So Big House proposes clear, workable guidelines for creating homes that serve both our spiritual needs and our material requirements, whether for a couple with no children, a family, empty nesters, or one person alone. Architects and builders around the country report clients showing up with dog-eared copies of The Not So Big House, pages marked to a favorite section. And the people responsible for building our homes have also gotten the message. Since then, the book's simple message - that quality should come before quantity - has started a movement in home design. Nearly a quarter-million people bought this ground-breaking book when it was published in Fall 1998. Granny's Country Store > Home-Building Resources > Not So Big Houses | Search | View Cart
