  abstract: Forget the McMansions. Budgets aren't what they used to be, houses are smaller and lifestyles are changing rapidly. Clients today want to create a home that is easy to maintain, environmentally responsible and inexpensive to operate. Own less, live more. Ranging from glass cabins to copper-clad tree houses, Small Innovative Houses features an international collection of more than fifty residential homes in North and South America, Europe, Asia and Australia. How to use flexible space and make the most of a narrow lot, how to use every square foot of living space, while also responding to rising ecological concerns and skyrocketing energy bills. Examples include a mountain barn converted into a modern vacation home in Switzerland, a mobile home built on a flatbed trailer chassis that can be transported on U.S. highways, a Japanese sunken house with moveable partitions that create as many as nine rooms, a summer cabin in Norway that appears to float above the ground and a spectacular glass cabin in the wilds of Alberta, Canada. From world-famous architects (Steven Holl, Snøhetta and Tadao Ando) to the freshest new talent, this book reveals architectural invention on a whole new small scale.
