The Chimni Home Typology breaks down the UK's 26 million homes into useful groups that help us explore the amazing variation in building type, style, and architectural period as we learn more about our own homes. The family formation of the population has also influenced accommodation requirements. The number of households tripled in Great Britain during the 20th century, partly a result of increasing population together with decreasing average household size. In the latter part of the century the change in household size
was influenced by the increase in the numbers of people living on their own.
