Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:


Mini House Now showcases the newest tiny homes that ingeniously make the most out of a small amount of space. Varied locations range from a lake in Switzerland to a forest in Texas to an overpopulated Japanese neighborhood. With more than 300 photographs and plans, Mini House Now is the perfect resource for anyone living in or building a small-scale home.

Book News Annotation:

An editor of books on architecture showcases 22 tiny houses that make innovative use of space. These include a German micro-compact module that draws on aeronautical and automotive as well as Japanese teahouse design, a 275-square foot glass-walled cabin for sunset viewing in Canada, a two-person home in Austria for those on a small budget, and a relatively large 880-square foot weekend place in Texas. The volume (a square 9.4") includes color photos, floor plans, and a directory of the architectural firms whose designs are featured. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Synopsis:

As the success of MINI HOUSE proved, bigger is not necessarily better, certainly not where your home is concerned. MINI HOUSE NOW demonstrates this point, showcasing dozens of homes that ingeniously make the most out of a small amount of space. For anyone living in or building small–scale home, this is the perfect source of inspiration.
