Karrie Jacobs, author of The Perfect $ 100,000 House, described in Metropolis, how zoning in Portland, Seattle and Vancouver are modified to promote the filling of smaller houses, and "say yes to less, rather than not to large. "

A small house which she was loved Dave Sarti 800 square feet small red box in Seattle. "It's a sweet fire-engine-red box planted in the garden of a house in Central District. I walked down the aisle past a grassy banal blue traditional houses and was surprised to see this Bauhaus cube where another firm may have a swing. Bold red siding panel to believe a lot right now, but the effectiveness of the design and small size reminded the workers' houses that Gropius and his contemporaries built in Europe between the wars. "

Seattle Times: The house is a single space ", more on volume than anything else," says Sarti. The 14-foot ceilings in the living room, furniture, rare, pale walls and honey-toned wood furniture and a staircase to emphasize the expansion. "I probably could have squeezed in a third floor room, but I have to do with a lot of small parts," says Sarti. "It was important for me to have a small house, but also to have rooms to such an extent that they felt merciful. I do not want him to feel like I was trying to do too much. "

Sarti has hired a builder, but has worked on it for seven months, and finish the job himself, and managed to keep the cost of the house for $ 180,000. The structure is wood frame construction with simple cement siding fiber HardiPanel, though I shudder to think that red will be in a few years, usually from sun exposure of limestone.

 Healthy House is a house located in a clean, green, with an ideal temperature climateand. However, population density and limited land in urban areas oftenmake hard to find a home that meets the health requirements of an ideal. The need is ever an emergency shelter, with more limited by the amount of land that many people are forced to build a house without considering the health aspect of it. While a healthy home is a very important role in maintaining the health of the department occupants.Although built on land that is limited, must remain a small house has good potential as big as houses built on land great a place to live. comfortable, healthy, therefore, thought has to go in the formation of a mature sound in a small house.

Small House Design By Pixel House Slade Architecture

Monday, September 19, 2011


It is home to 1200 SF house was designed by Slade pixels Architecture, located in Heyri, South Korea. This house is for a young family with two children. They are very interested in the community and plan on sharing their outdoor spaces with the community. They intend to create daycare for neighborhood children. The site is perfectly suited to the client's intentions, the last house in a row of houses. This is the breaking point between the front and backyard space clear, the point that the facade follows the line ends. Public and private lands are not as clear as in other places on the line.

While public and private spaces are ambiguous, the end condition is when the relationship between the building and the landscape is clearer. The entire row of houses can be read as an object relations / field between the building and landscape. This contrast between formal clarity and ambiguity of the territories requires a very different strategy from that of filling the suffering, particularly because the customer is interested in cutting down the public-private opposition.

The architect has moved away from the line in chunks, rather than a simple extension of the line of "wall" at the bottom of the page. Location of the main house at the west end of the site allows the passage between the front and back and make an open space on the street in the depth of the house. Separate the volume of the main house allows us to play with the relationship between landscape and building. Smooth and rounded to be somewhere between the rigid geometry of the orthogonal line and smooth contours of the landscape, the main volume is difficult to categorize.

In this micro-shaped natural state of conflict and the condition is still orthogonal to the master plan developed for the selection of materials. Using a simple orthogonal bricks, the smooth shape is digitized into separate units. This tension-shaped tectonic big and smooth power of the individual bricks in the house of the individual and the parallel line and between buildings, described by the master, and the hilly landscape.

The bricks also provide a very real sense of scale and manufacturing, the transformation from abstract to reality, manifested in the grain and the inability to "zoom in" beyond a certain scale. The number of pixels determines the sharpness of a digital image, the sweetness of the house is determined by the brick module, the result is a house of 9675 pixels (1 pixel = 1 brick).

The piece middle of the house, phase two, occupies the back yard, as defined in the plan. By placing it in the area of ​​this part of the building occupies the back yard semi-private, but is available directly from the front yard. It invites the Community to share this space by removing the house number. The owner intends to use this space as a community center during the day and within the private home at night and on weekends. Building on the opposite cycles between user space education and housing do double work.

Small Home Savings Plans


Those involved in small houses are covered with small beads. With rising energy costs, the review of more buyers in a small house with efficiency in mind. Opting for small housing schemes, store owners large sums in the early to save on construction costs and lower home energy costs. Choice plans small house, the easiest step in a larger economy is possible, the quality and the victim may be surprisingly low.

This is something great when it comes to your home can be to sacrifice a little space for decoration, but it is not necessary to sacrifice the quality of life. It is true that much better assimilate more, can occur only when they feel corridors echo with every step. Others, however, we find that the house small plans, all the basic elements necessary for a good life. small house plans is a great solution for those who are comfortable in a nice house.

And 'interesting to note that the savings plans small house can also contribute to the country. Times of environmental awareness, promote a "super-end housing may not be evil, anti-green". Footprint for families to consume more acres of land and a big house, you may end up losing a lot of energy drained. A small house can be built with respect for the environment in the long run, unless the owner of a number of energy saving measures in their entirety. Therefore, the symbiotic relationship between the floors of the house, and a relatively small planet is reached.

Those who really want to go "green" home can choose additional features to save energy, such as power windows, appliances and solar systems for heating and cooling added. Those who have the courage to go with their housing plans for global trends in green housing actually be the pioneers of the other.

The smaller house does not mean that the son of the house, but the smaller accounts, the better! Since less space in your home, it is less expensive and more pocketable share with others, to think of a small house plan for you and the world.

House Is A Small Fashion


If you look very closely at the photo, you'll see a house. Can you see? Good.

Today I write about the small house movement in the United States, which calls for the construction and live in small houses.

This new trend is a good thing. Small homes are ideal for example if you have a reduction, if you want to save money, or if you want to put less demand for the natural environment.

Small Houses


The greenhouse effect is a phenomenon all over the world these days. We can not escape the news of what is important for energy saving and energy-efficient home, which is well insulated, and is a good thing. But the easiest and most effective way to reduce energy consumption at home in the long term is to reduce the size from the beginning. Reduces the energy bill is just the beginning: the need to build fewer, less land, less maintenance and is an important by-product of building houses Littler.

More and more customers ask for a small house can work on their behalf. I am concerned that not enough space for family and friends in holiday visits or seems cramped. The fact is that a small house does not seem to look small. Using cutting-edge design and innovative, as well as a small house can be larger and more elegant than its actual size.

These pages are ten guidelines that can be used to expand the perceived size of a small house. They include a comprehensive approach that will provide a home that is very comfortable and excellent. To succeed, a small house also should be simple, simple, architectural forms and construction techniques, quality materials and careful detailing. Feel better quality than quantity, while the mind and personality to make a living house.





First Designing an outdoor space

Whether you are based outside of the house can greatly affect the way your home feels inside, especially if you make a room like space and connect properly at home. This open space must have a clear line like a stone wall, fence, shrubs, fences, or adjacent structures. It should be easily accessible from inside the house and be attached to the inside of compatible materials, models of soil, canopy, planting, and large doors and / or windows. An item as an outdoor fireplace or arrangement of tables and chairs can also give the room a connection inside.

Outdoor room should be a bit 'larger than the largest room. I usually want to use the facilities, which are about 4.11 2.11 times larger than the largest room. Ideally, an outdoor room should be an area that is hidden, it creates a little 'a mystery, and tempting the visitor to explore. Let your guests in mind, which is something to find.

2. Investing in space transitions

Use transitions, you can select different worlds in a house. Transitions range of parts of the floor plan, such as stairs, hallways and balconies, with details such as the thresholds thick pillars, beams and ceilings lowered. You can use these architectural elements to create a sense of mystery and a controlled process of discovery that reinforce the feeling that there is more at home than immediately meets the eye.

While it is tempting to remove the power input square feet and circulation, which is more important to be generous to these areas. This will create the feeling that you live in a bigger house.

Use the third contrasts of light and color

Natural light is a great way to add a sense of volume. Bringing light into the house by using large windows, skylights and lanterns. The interior walls of the outside air can be borrowed from other regions of the light through the transoms, French doors or interior windows. I'm trying to plan every living room of the house is enough natural light, so that artificial lighting is needed during the day.

The bright light in the foreground areas slightly darker than the background creates a perspective, which increases the depth perception of space. The light at the ends of the room or the house will attract the viewer's eye, increasing the perceived distance. Hall, at the end of the window or sunroof astatine top of the stairs to promote the sense that the state extends beyond its actual dimensions would suggest the opposite.

Artificial lighting can also be used to illuminate a room and illuminate the features and functions. Well-placed lighting provides a contrast and shadow, gives the definition and clarity of the elements and edges, and influences the perception of space is larger than it actually is.

Although the color scheme must be simple uninterrupted use of contrasting colors to create an expanded sense of space. Bright colors on the walls and ceilings dissolve the boundaries of a room, making it seem bigger, darker colors, on the other hand, turn the volume of a room, make him feel more intimate and Littler. Warm colors seem to go against us, while cool colors tend to fade. Using color in ways origin can really open up less space visually.

4. Create a contrast with the scale

Avoid all the trimmings in a small house, just because it makes little sense. Instead, vary the scale of objects and elements of more than normal to smaller than normal to evoke a feeling of grandeur. For example, a small window near a large piece of furniture made in the area seem larger.

Using ar monumental elements that can achieve the same effect. A huge fireplace, a large fireplace, large windows, a door monolithic giant columns, an upholstered chair and a garden all appear as if they belong to a "big" house. The combination of large pieces of furniture comfortable with large carpets is another good idea, just use less parts. Increasing the height of the CAP standard 8 feet to 9 feet in the main living room can also have a big impact.

5. Organize the house separate areas

If a clear distinction between different domains in a small house, you look taller, giving the impression that it contains several rooms and space. Establish at least two kingdoms astatine, avoid a house with one room, unless your intention. Creating public and private spaces, separating the functions of competition, and to distinguish between noise and silence zones ar all good ways to increase the perceived size of a small house. Use well-structured transitions such as changes in soil variables and a high ceiling to define and separate the different areas.

Law enforcement agencies from some of the intimate and welcoming, and the other open and airy. Sheltered from the open living room with inglenook is a good example of this tactic.

Room "Getaway" somewhere in your home is important. A small house feel larger and more balanced, if you know that it contains a rather lonely, and focusing inward.

6. Develop more guidance

By creating multiple views with openings of different sizes, you can add a cottage feel of the spatial variation. Use Windows to frame a view, and vary the focus of similar characteristics to withdraw as soon as possible horizons. You can also use a mirror to reflect a view outside.

Try to give each room with natural light for at least two sides. Thinking of using a volume, not only regionally. For example, high or lunette window can open a small space inside and turn it into a bright airy kingdom.

Avoid large glass in small rooms and large windows to a wall. This imbalance can create a restless, absorbing the feeling of the fence outside the room, making him feel small and isolated from the rest of the house.

7. Focus on the dimension

Start with the visibility to its full potential. Long corridors strategically located one and a half or two-story spaces and diagonal views ar all means to get a sense of space. Instead of a solid wall, which limits the potential for a long, use interior windows, skylights and clerestory windows for maximum visibility and space to expand beyond its borders is felt.

Maintain clear visibility is important. Limit the number of pieces of furniture and remove clutter in these areas to allow the eye to travel further, extending the dimensions of spatial perception.

8th Place the illusion of working

You can connect the tapered walls and ceilings, and can manipulate objects, such as fireplaces, sculptures, gardens to create the illusion of space expanded. For example, an outdoor dining area, with walls that taper towards each other creates a point of view of the tension that the channels with an eye toward the center that seems far away. Located in the center of the object, like a small sculpture contributes to a better understanding of this enlarged area.

Another technique is to create an attractive curve antics of a space that invites visitors to an area partially hidden from view. A curved wall or corner, a loft, or climbing stairs can help create a sense of mystery.

Large mirrors are placed or closet doors and bathroom in small spaces can enlarge the space observed. Be careful to avoid placing mirrors facing each other, however. This arrangement creates a fun house effect disorientation images continuously reproduced. When deciding what size of a mirror must be and where to go, think it is a

Window, a work of art, or framed photos. Paintings and photographs can also create the illusion of more space when they are strategically placed at the bottom of the room or hallway or stairs.

9. Use thick edges and recessed

Counters thick, deep window frames, door sills and wide rear all examples of thick edges. They give the impression of strength and long life, and expresses a sense of grandeur.

When you extend a window beyond the level of an exterior wall, creating thick around the inside of the window. Inside jambs range reflects light, brightening the room. Apart from the shadow of the glass add interest to the façade of the house. The incorporation of an electronic gate on the other hand, you can create the illusion of a thick wall.

By incorporating built-in furniture edges and thick at the perimeter of a room in the center of the space is freed for life. Fixtures, such as window seats, wall beds, folding bunk beds, folding tables and benches can be used to keep areas clear of furniture.

Nothing creates a sense of claustrophobia in a small house faster than clutter. Use shelves, cabinets, closets, drawers and storage boxes to keep clutter out of sight. Frequently Asked folds arise during renovation or construction. Think like a designer of boats and look for these opportunities to provide a space to store things away.

10th include function rooms

Houses to integrate a wide range of features not need their own space of all time. If you can combine as opposed to activities that occur at different times in the same place, you can eliminate the need for more rooms. But do not force it. Work through the functional requirements for disparate activities before you start combining them. Here are some typical applications that can double or triple up:

Entrance hall with storage and laundry

Bathroom / laundry

Entrance hall with desk, storage and dust

locker room with work bench, sink, and clothes-dryers

Bedroom with a comfortable area for reading or meditation

stair landing expanded to include an office

Dining room serving dinner formal and informal
