My sister and I stayed the night in a miniature house at a campsite near Lake Manapouri in New Zealand and thought it was cooler than sliced bread. I'm not sure of the square footage, but I was reminded of it today when I read The Next Little Thing? in today's New York Times. We were completely enamoured with the house even though it didn't have it's own bathroom. The camp owner's son built it and the details in the woodwork were lovely. I'm not sure how I'd manage living in one as my sole residence, but I like the focus on smaller houses. Some people are out of control! A few houses down from my older sister is a house built for 2 people that is about 10,000 square feet. Is that really necessary? This is the house in New Zealand. Isn't it adorable?
