Since the beginning of the housing boom of the 1950s, the size of the average North American house has steadily grown while the size of the average family has decreased. Today, a growing number of homebuyers seeking smaller, more efficient residential designs are rediscovering a centuries old housing prototype: the narrow house. Measuring twenty-five-feet wide or less, these "infill" or "skinny" houses, as they are often called, are on the rise in cities and suburbs around the world. The benefits of building small and narrow are numerous: greater land-use efficiency, less building material, fewer infrastructure costs, lower utility bills, and flexible layouts. This building type creates environmentally sensible houses that allow homeowners to live within their means. Narrow Houses presents a thorough overview of the practical considerations of designing a narrow-front home, including siting, floor arrangements, footprint, and interior and exterior finishing. The book documents twenty-eight innovative examples of narrow houses from around the world designed by today's foremost architects. Project data including floor plans and extensive interior and exterior photography demonstrate the inherent flexibility of this housing model and the many possibilities for adapting these homes to the constraints of site, climate, budget, family size, and other needs.

The narrow or shallow house is a secret world in which normal sized people confront or relish the inevitable tight squeeze within. At its best, smallness enforces simplicity and efficiency. At its worst, it may make the resident or visitor feel cramped, suffocated or squashed. Narrowness broadens the creative touch but restricts the choice of furniture, and of friends. Shallowness streamlines acquisitiveness but limits personal depth. Persons of Meagre Mansions (PMMs) may take heart: there is always some other PMM in a worse hole somewhere. The world's smallest houses are humorously examined. Enjoy! Anyone suffering from claustrophobia, however, should avert their eyes and put this book down now. Failure to do so may result in anxiety, panic attacks, hot flushes, increased blood pressure, tension, sweating, hyperventilating, nausea and fainting. If in doubt, consult a doctor before buying your copy of this miniature masterpiece.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
