Architectural Designs

Does anyone know of a site where you can get information about cottage house plans and other small home plans?

I'm going to build my first home, and I need more information regarding small home designs.

2. You can also try your public library. There are many books available with house plans.
3. Try the links for The HousePlanShop below. We bought our house plans from this company after a friend recommended the site. You might see something you like or at least get some ideas. It can't hurt to look. There are several categories that might have something your are looking for. If you have certain requirements like the number of bedrooms or a particular width and depth, try the simple search or advanced search on the home page.

There are plenty of good articles and we learned quite a bit about building, etc. once we took the time to look at the info this site had to share. http://www.thehouseplanshop.com/resources.php Good luck!
4. You didn't mention what kind of house you're going to build - cottage house, log cabin, bungalow or other. Anyway, there are many sites with small home plans, as other people answered you. But you should check blogs as well, since they have some tips that the comercial site won't tell you. For example, check http://smallhomeplansexpert.wordpress.com/
