Rising housing costs, shrinking urban footprints, and a renewed focus on walkable neighborhoods are reshaping how—and where—we live. Little House in the City taps directly into this shift, offering a grounded, design-driven look at small homes that make urban living more attainable, flexible, and sustainable.

Across North America, a new generation of homeowners, builders, and city planners is rethinking the single-family house. Instead of expanding outward, they are building inward—through infill development, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), backyard cottages, and creative conversions that unlock underused space in existing neighborhoods.

This book captures that movement through 35 real-world homes ranging from approximately 500 to 1,600 square feet.

Each project demonstrates how smart architecture can address some of today’s biggest housing challenges: limited space, rising costs, and the need for more flexible living arrangements. From garage conversions and rooftop builds to compact new construction, these homes show how thoughtful design can increase density without sacrificing livability, comfort, or style.

Rich photography and clear, practical examples make this more than a design book—it’s a roadmap for anyone interested in small-space living, gentle density, and the future of urban housing.

Whether you’re exploring ADUs, downsizing, or looking for inspiration in the age of YIMBY-driven change, Little House in the City makes a compelling case: better cities aren’t built bigger—they’re built smarter.

Key Features:

  • Real-Life Case Studies: Showcases small homes in various urban settings, with insights into design choices that maximize space and comfort.
  • Creative Space-Saving Ideas: Offers clever storage solutions, multipurpose layouts, and design tricks that make small spaces feel open and inviting.
  • Sustainable Living Tips: Emphasizes eco-friendly practices and sustainable materials, perfect for the environmentally-conscious urban dweller.
  • Beautiful Photography: Features high-quality images that capture the charm and functionality of compact city living.
  • Expert Advice: Includes practical tips from architects and designers on optimizing small spaces without sacrificing style.

Good Fit Out of the Box
Size: 9, Color: Black
The shoes came with the correct size and is a good fit. They were originally pretty stiff, but are much better now after breaking them in. They look good. but as other's have said, they are made of synthetic leather and in my opinion have kind of a plastic look to them. The quality is good with ridged rubbber soles. I thought they were kind of expensive, but then again I haven't purchased these type of shoes in a while. A family member told me that if they were real leather, they would have been a lot more expensive. For what the shoes are I would recommend the purchase.

I wanted to love these
Size: 9, Color: Black Leather
These are very good looking in person, especially the buckles and the pop of red on black. Alas, I have another pair of Marc Joseph shoes to compare comfort and fit, and this pair simply hurts my feet.

very poor quality
Size: 14, Color: Black
they are a peice of garbage, within about a month since i started wearing them the outer material started pealing off within two months the upper separated from the soles so i had to go to a shoemaker to sew them back together, within some few months the insoles completely wore out rendering the shoes unwearable, now mind you that i do not abuse shoes but use them in a normal office oriented enviorment, i will for sure not be buying these shoes again
