If less is more, then smaller is better. if architecture could be reduced to a simple equation, then this one would sum up the thesis of this book. The new houses presented here, all no larger than 100 qm (1000 sf), show that limited space and budget generate especially creative living solutions. By exploring new directions, such as sustainable, green building methods and prefabricated construction technology, these houses show that there really is an alternative to the dreary suburban homes which dominate real estate markets worldwide.
