Kathryn Bechen, author of Small Space Organizing, answers the question “What does “rightsized” living mean?“
I think “rightsized” is a relative term, personalized to you and your family.
A home that seems small to one family might seem big to another. A home that seems small to you at one phase of your life might seem large at another time in your life. When I personally think of small space living, I think of about 400-1200 SF, but some people might think my 1200 SF apartment is big. I’ve heard people say they’re downsizing to a “small 2700 SF house.” To me, 2700 SF is big!
Again, I’d like to inspire people to make very conscious choices as to the size of home space they live in, so they’re happy, because I believe when you’re happy at home, it radiates out in a positive way to others in the world. Kind of like when you find the perfect jeans that fit just right! And likewise, I’ll be bold enough to declare here that when your home space doesn’t feel appropriate and supportive to you, you sadly radiate that crankiness out into the world too!
