Sometimes small changes can have a big impact. But
many homeowners looking for more living space still insist on building
expensive additions or completely rebuilding their home. In the latest
groundbreaking step in the "Not So Big" revolution, previously in
hardcover, Sarah Susanka and Marc Vassallo demonstrate how carefully
chosen tweaks and simple additions can make a home seem much larger and
more inviting. They avoid high-end architectural solutions, focusing
instead on how "Not So Big" ideas can dramatically improve even the most
modest home. The authors show readers how to think like an architect,
so they can accurately assess their home's shortcomings, apply "Not So
Big" principles to their remodeling plan, and phase in their project
incrementally over time. With the brilliant new book her fans have been
clamoring for, Sarah Susanka once again proves that a little remodeling
can go a long way.
