Why read it?

2 authors picked Small Space Style as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

She sheds are usually small spaces and everyone can relate to the challenges of creating beauty with limited resources. This smart book pays homage to living small and makes you see wonderful possibilities where none existed before. I love walking through Whitney’s charming “Tiny Canal Cottage” as she calls it, the 400-square-foot place she shares with her husband, young son, and two dogs in Venice, California. The table of contents isn’t satisfied with vague chapter titles – nope, you get numbered ideas (238!) that are specific and doable. I love #026, which shows you how to trade a coffee table…

I couldn’t agree more with the subtitle to Whitney’s book “Because You Don't Need to Live Large to Live Beautifully.” Small Space Style is jam-packed with ideas for how to maximize a small space with a focus on doable, do-it-yourself projects that work for renters. Plus, the book has tons of photographs of Whitney’s former home, a tiny one-bedroom cottage in Venice Beach. This book is for anyone with an itch to DIY or who loves the boho, Cali style.

From Laura's list on small space design.
