A sprawling mansion may have been appealing in the past, but now cabins and cottages are in. Smaller spaces require less work and create a cozy feeling that 5,000 square feet never could. Take a look at this vast array of cabins and cottages, all made with style, convenience and simplicity in mind.
Implications - Smaller cabins and cottages appeal to today's average adult because society is full of decoration, excessiveness and an overwhelming amount of material things. Thus, the more simple, serene nature of cabin living is more attractive than ever, providing consumers with the chance to escape the chaos of adult life. Companies looking to capitalize on this urge for simplicity can use the qualities of a cabin to do so.
