The inspirational spaces showcased in Small Spaces are documented thoroughly with beautiful photographs and floor plans, to inspire you in the process of enlarging your own space. 
Starting with Making the Most of your Space, Rebecca shows how clever use of color, lighting or other elements makes for a coherent home with a feeling of space.
