A revolution in the American dwelling aesthetic?

The financial crisis has caused the American real estate market to discover the advantages of European architecture, writes the Süddeutsche Zeitung. "Nothing embodies the American spirit of independence, individualism and love for the soil like the American house. ... The demand for personal living space has almost tripled since the 1950s. But this trend of excess now seems to be over thanks to rising fuel prices and the stagnation of the gigantic commuter suburbs. ... Instead America has discovered energy efficiency and European dimensions. That could be tantamount to a revolution in the American dwelling aesthetic. ... If US houses now have German solar roofs, Scandinavian simplicity and thick Swiss walls, if they forgo their sprawling Romanticism in favour of energy efficient, compact spaces it will mean a definitive end to the world of the Waltons."
