Larger homes are more costly in terms of building, taxes, heating, maintenance and repair. In addition to costing less, small houses may encourage a less cluttered and complicated life and reduced ecological impact for their residents. That’s the philosophy architect Macy Miller adopted few years ago: “Tiny works with me because I like simple. I don’t have a ton of “stuff”, I don’t want a ton of “stuff”. I don’t have extended family or kids to shelter. I am single and don’t plan on starting a family for a few years at least. I could afford to put visitors up in a hotel with the money I saved from not paying rent. My needs are simple. A simple house will be perfect for me.”
