Small House Society and what the Small House Movement is about So what is the small house society and the small house movement all about? Let’s start with downsizing to a smaller house. If you want to simplify your life one of the smartest things you can do is move into a smaller space. And that’s what the small house movement is all about, isn’t it? Normal houses have become… Too expensive A pain to maintain Toxic to the environment Completely wasteful Basically these houses keep us strapped to what we all know as the rat race. And once we’re in, and have kids, we’re just stuck and it’s hard to get out. But that’s where a lot of people miss the point. The small house society is about… Simplicity and enjoying the beautiful things in life like nature, bicycling, walking, parks, books and other activities Technology. There’s an official small house society website that you can visit, the link will open up in a new window.

Call them tiny houses, wee homes, mini dwellings, "sensibly sized" or microhomes, there's a new movement afoot in the United States, that the Small House Society explains includes "movie stars who have downsized into 3000 square feet, families of five happy in an arts and crafts bungalow, multifamily housing in a variety of forms, and more extreme examples, such as people on houseboats and in trailers with just a few hundred square feet around them."
