The Elusive Small House Utopia

The Elusive Small House Utopia is a fascinating recent article from the NYT Magazine, both for what it says about what we want from shelter these days, as well as what we might desire at some point in the imagined future. What sort of future will it be? How might we create a home ground that actually might work to enable our utopian vision of the future? Local boy Thoreau gets a mention (of course), but the Home for a New Economy is not gunning for anything quite so radical as his 10 x 15 foot hermitage. Think 1,700 - 2,000 square feet.

What does your ideal home look like, and what does that say about you?
