India has seen a gradual increase in nuclear families over the past decade, making compact homes an exceeding trend in the realty market of the country. In metropolitan cities such as Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, where more than half of the population is working all day, compact homes represent a very significant part as they are closer to business districts, and above all an affordable investment. Additionally, the rising demand for housing spaces due to rapid urbanization and the struggle to sell expensive homes in a sluggish market is influencing developers to adopt a strategy of 'housing units with smaller sizes.' In fact, the concept of compact homes is taking shape worldwide.  A compact home is composed of a hall, bedroom, study, and a kitchen with washrooms and a balcony. These houses differ in size from 500 sq. ft. to 800 sq. ft. which is well-suited for a tiny family. Compact Living is conclusively smart living, where build space is inadequate, yet the quality of facilities and design remains high. In cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, and Kolkata, the land is minimal and prices are steep, making the concept of compact homes scale up a lot.
