In Beautifully Small, Sara Emslie embraces the positive aspects of living in small spaces and offers design and style solutions to the practical problems associated with limited living space. In Chapter 1: Inspiration, Sara draws inspiration from truly tiny spaces such as boats and caravans as well as her own home—a diminutive workman’s cottage in a London suburb. In Chapter 2: Elements of Design, she discusses how even the most straightforward planning decisions can be complicated by the constraints of small spaces and suggests clever design solutions. The third chapter, Elements of Style, explores ideas for making compact interiors work through the use of creative styling and decoration. In Chapter 4, a series of case studies takes a closer look at imaginative treatments for pocket-size interiors, showcasing a variety of tiny spaces including a terraced ‘two-up, two-down’ worker’s cottage, a tiny studio apartment with a clever mezzanine that incorporates a bathroom, and a pint-sized coastal hideaway.

Delightful and Delicious!
A lovely book with good advice to follow through for smaller houses and apartments. Beautiful images on virtually every page and some of the collections in the interiors are absolutely gorgeous. I could probably have bought the book for the front cover alone!

Small Space Book
Beautifully Small and Small Space Style are the same book with different titles so that's the only caveat. That aside, the book offers many ideas with excellent photographs to illustrate the concepts.

OK, but nothing I couldn't have found on google in 10 minutes.
It's a nice enough looking book for a coffee table or shelf, but the contents are already dated and not very unique. I bought it as part of a housewarming gift for a friend; she glanced at it for about 30 seconds and then set it down and I doubt she picked it up again. It can't compete with a quick internet search for finding interesting ideas on small space design.

Beautiful solutions in a single book
I live in a small Victorian two-up two-down house and found this book packed with tips for making a compact home beautiful while maximising space. After reading the book, I promptly planned to create a storage wall to lighten our living room, replace my bedroom door with a sliding door to reduce the floor space taken up by the door, strip out our old upstairs carpets to freshen up the upstairs, and remove the low ceiling in our living room to create storage on the exposed beams. It's rare I find so many solutions in so few pages.The book is beautifully illustrated. A small coffee-table-style book with many lovely photographs and design examples taken from all over Europe.

A beautiful book, suitable for anyone's coffee table but also packed full of wonderful ideas for small spaces but which equally can be used in larger houses/spaces too! Fantastic floor plans and photographs supporting the very relaxed, easy to read informative text. A highly recommended purchase and read!
