Small Homes now
Made Better
The application of technical
skill to the planning of small
homes means that the low-cost
house of today is built with far
greater economy in the use of
space, according to the Federal
Housing administration.
One construction economy
which at the same time has re-
suited in greatly improved ap-
pearance is simplicity of archi-
tectural design. Livability and
health are receiving more atten-
tion from builders. The resulting
privacy, light, ventilation, and
sanitation are among the out-
standing attractions to buyers.
