Sarah Susanka's book, "The Not So Big House," might be of interest. Amazon.com has a number of professional and reader reviews of the book. Her ideas are interesting in the abstract, but it is stretching it a bit to call some of her houses "not so big." Alas, Susanka houses do not qualify as "not so expensive." Each year, LIFE magazine invites a noted architect to design a home within parameters established by the average size and construction costs of the time. Robert A.M. Stern, Michael Graves, the Taliesen group and others all managed to come in "under budget" when given the opportunity in years past. Susanka fluffed her opportunity to shine this year: her "cheap" home cost about $100/square foot above the average.
