Limit the size of a directory

Hello there! I would like to know if UNIX and/or Linux offers any chance to limit the size of a directory? If so, how can I perform it? I wouldn't like to use a software for this, it will be more interesting doing it by command line

i.e.: I would limit the size of /$HOME/example up to 10MB.

Any comments will be very welcome, thanks!
