A Blueprint for the Way We Really Live.
Sarah Susanka contends that people are naturally drawn to intimate spaces. Large structures inspired by outdated patterns tend to result in houses that just don't work. In this book, she proposes clear guidelines for creating homes that serve spiritual needs as well as material requirements.
Topics covered include designing for specific lifestyles, budgeting, building a home from scratch, and using energy-efficient construction. With more than 200 colour photographs as well as floor plans, the book is perfect for homeowners ready to rethink their space.
