4.0 out of 5 stars Good ideas, but needs updating., 2 April 2008
By T. Watson "DRB" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is an excellent book with some unique ideas. The sections on how to zone open plan living spaces and clever ideas to locate storage are useful to everyone, no matter the size of your home. Some of the ideas, especially in the kitchen section, are now making there way in to mainstream kitchen design so are not as revolutionary as they would have been when the book was written.

My main criticism of the book, and the reason it gets four starts, is it desperately needs updating. Although the ideas are just as relevant today the photographs of dingy 80's interiors and references to storing 'walkmans' and 'cassette tapes' make the book feel dated.

Azby's other book 'The very small home' looks at interiors more than actual storage ideas but is much more up to date and features the kind of interiors we would expect in a modern book and makes an excellent companion to this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Modern Japanese design solutions, 24 Mar 2002
By Neil Lewis (London) - See all my reviews
  
This book highlights solutions for making better use of living space, drawing on modern design and classical Japanese interior design. Highlights include some interesting storage solutions, ideas about low-level living and some great examples of apartments and houses which have interesting design features.

A refreshing and idea-provoking look at how we live.
