Mr. Jay Shafer is a responsible genius who came up with the idea of Tiny House! His company Tumbleweed is part of a small house movement. In 2002, we co-founded a small mansion association in Iowa City, Iowa. In 2003, commissioned by Gregory Paul Johnson (Gregory Paul Johnson), Mobile Hermitage (The Mobile Hermitage) was built. Mobile Hermitage has become one of the first commercial sale of tumbleweed.
When was a small house beginning to bloom?
During the 2005 Katrina Hurricane disaster, Marianne Cousat developed a 308 sq. Ft. Cottage construction for homeless victims, and the small house movements still remained blooming.
Do you want one? What to do next?
Identify the square foot you need. Please visit the local pre-building building to feel the minimum requirement, or borrow Tiny House on the weekend and evaluate real life in Tiny House. Then start brainstorming and plan the setup and storage needs. Slowly but surely we will begin to form an image of the inside of your little house.
A 320 square foot prefab building is enough to make it comfortable and make the transition from big to small very easy. Some equipment also includes all equipment and HVAC systems. What you need to do is the cost of the building (approximately $ 35,000), taxes and transportation costs. Another option is to contact the builders you choose.
You also need to investigate state laws and requirements for these small houses. A good source of information is The American Tiny House Association.
There are several different resources and websites that sell plans, workshops, existing real estate for sale, or rental. So these small houses have kept a solid solution that they have not paid mortgages for 30 or 40 years for a long time.
Become creative within a small house
I draw myself in a small house and expect exactly what you feel and comfortable. Now please entertain our thoughts. Enough kitchen cabinet, perhaps a slide out pantry, a small range with oven, enough counter space to prepare food, small sink, your bedroom closet, and where you will squeeze in the washer / dryer combo Well ... do not forget the items of your bathroom. Do you want a loft or the same floor bedroom? If you have a loft, how would you like your stairs? Do you have a warehouse under or in the stairs? In the area of your living room, we have a creative tool to save space with a small sofa with drawers and storage space. We have a drop leaf table for working with table and laptop. Then prepare the layout diagram of all your ideas and include the measurements.
Small furniture that saves floor area, there are many ideas out there. Storage drawer, corner desk, floating desk, fallen leaf folding table, storage trunk, murphy bed, sofa with bed sliding up and down from the ceiling. The truth is that it is a wonderful space-saving idea for small apartments, small apartments, small rooms, sun rooms, dormitories, guesthouses, living rooms and studios, whether in a small house or not. Many innovative and creative ideas live in everyday life from various sources, due to their necessity. Plato said quite well that "necessity is the mother of invention".
Last, but at least - Reality check
I recently read the article "Love in a Small House - Medium" by Lauren Modery, where she wrote this article in a small house, nurtured the reality of crude oil to live in a small house not so great But the truth is that depending on how much you purchased your Tiny House, these can be very comfortable and efficient custom. You will be able to take off at any time for the trip, enjoy the freedom of the mortgage, pay a very low public utility fee, collect the real estate tax and enjoy many good experiences. No doubt, one big blessing!
But eventually you will stay within your budget and plan wisely assuming your expectations are met.
