Think Small Live Luxuriously

Just yesterday, I spoke on a branding panel at MAGIC about the Small is the New Big movement. Conscious consumers are choosing quality over quantity, which represents a huge shift in the shopping paradigm.

Luxurious small dwellings are the next wave. Defined as less than 700 sq ft, these dwellings are increasingly more aesthetic and available thru prefab manufacturers. As consumers rethink their priorities, these abbreviated structures motivate occupants to edit precisely and define themselves against the open space of the land rather than the footprint of the shelter.

Bethany Lyttle’s Piece for the New York Time entitled “Think Small” adds insight to this growing trend. Read her full story and check out Small is the New Big, the book that started the dialogue.
