Book: Micro Green - Tiny Houses in Nature

By Jonathan Bell

Mimi Zeiger's Micro Green is succinct but high on style. This mini monograph, subtitled 'Tiny Houses in Nature', is designed to appeal to everyone who has ever fantasised about a rural retreat, a weekend bolthole or even going the full Thoreau and ditching their urban existence for a cabin in the woods.

And what cabins. Featuring work by Olson Kundig Architects, Gianni Botsford, Tham & Videgård Arkitekter and many others (and with plenty of structures that'll be familiar to Wallpaper* readers), Micro Green serves up realistic doses of architectural aspiration that are very hard to resist.
