A comprehensive guide to small-space secrets and real-life solutions for living in 1,200 square feet or less.
The Little Book of Living Small offers practical, everyday advice for managing a tight footprint. It features twelve case study homes in which style-savvy, small-space dwellers (from singles to families of four) open their doors and share their design secrets. Stylistically these homes range from urban to rural, minimalist to bohemian, with the unifying thread that they are all real homes of 1,200 square feet or less and offer clever solutions for you to use in your own home.
Highly engaging with lists, tips, and actionable advice, The Little Book of Living Small shows readers how to make the most of limited square footage―with grace and style―and serves as the cheerleader readers need to help themselves feel satisfied and proud of their choice to live with less.
Review
“A triumphant celebration of small spaces that frames living small as a prospect that's both exciting and eminently practical. Much more than an opportunity to gawk at the tiny places folks call home, this book gives readers an honest look at how to thrive―with confidence and conviction―no matter the constraints of square footage. Ultimately we see how a choice to live small is less about what we might lose and more about we can gain―for ourselves and for our planet.” -- Erin Boyle, Author ― Reading My Tea Leaves Blog and Author of Simple Matters: Living with Less and Ending Up with More Published On: 2020-04-07
“Most of us have heard the phrase "less is more," popularized by minimalist architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. In her new book, The Little Book of Living Small, author Laura Fenton not only makes a case for that but also shares practical advice for how to pare down in a way that still allows for a personalized, aesthetically pleasing and comfortable environment. Whether you are contemplating downsizing, looking to simplify your lifestyle, or find the environmental and financial benefits of small-space living appealing, this book has a wealth of inspiration to help you find your way.” ― Country Sampler Published On: 2020-04-01

“[Laura Fenton has] been living small―690-square feet to be exact―for years (with a four-and-a-half-year-old no less!) and just released a book yesterday, The Little Book of Living Small, which feels like an anthology of all things small―and is full of some serious tiny house eye candy. Even if you aren’t limited by your square footage, you can still use these strategies for a less clutter, more stylish space.” -- Danielle Blundell ― Apartment Therapy Published On: 2020-04-08
