The last few decades have seen a boom in the development of small houses in response to the reduced size of families, the density of cities, the demands of today's citizens and the rise in price per square meter of property. These small homes present the perfect solution for busy professionals, married couples without children and adults who want to live alone or with their partner. Far from the concept of the last century, where importance and power were reflected by the size of a home, small houses (also known as mini houses) have staked their claim in current architectural development. In response to the increase in this type of small property, numerous companies and brands have created and developed products specifically for these compact spaces, marking a trend based on economy of resources and minimalist ideas.
