When merging households, one plus one needs to equal . . . one. With the same warm tone that made Downsizing the Family Home such a success, Marni Jameson goes through the turf wars and transitions new couples encounter, helping them figure out what to keep, discard, and create together. She interviews psychologists, designers, and those who have made it through the process, passing along tips, tricks, and marriage-bolstering advice.
