5 Mistakes to Avoid in a Small Living Room — And What to Try Instead to Flatter a Compact Space

Architects and builders are developing smaller home designs to cut costs. Home prices keep going up, yet new homes keep shrinking—and architects say they’ll just keep getting smaller, according to a July report by John Burns Research & Consulting (JBREC). Last year, about a quarter of new homes were downsized to cut costs, JBREC says, yet new-construction home prices increased by 2.5% in 2023, peaking at nearly $441,000 in August, U.S. Census Bureau data shows. In turn, that’s led economists and other housing experts to warn of the death of the starter home.

My artwork hangs in many new and old homes alike, including barndominiums. "Barndominiums" have taken the real estate world by storm.

However, I was quickly disheartened when I was invited to hang my artwork in barndominiums that weren't actually barns but instead were built using sleek, modern materials like metal.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

The contract goes to Housing Connector, which has experience in such matters, according to a memo from city staff to the City Council. Extra money is included in the contract for things such as unexpected repairs, said Midori Higa of the Department of Housing Stability. She said if someone has a bad day and breaks a window, a replacement will be covered.
