My Tiny Abode: Designing a Life

South Whidbey Island teen builds tiny house.

“Since I was a kid I have been intrigued with fabricating a life I want to live. I have been working towards this on many levels. Mentally and emotionally, but also physically. For the past few years I have been obsessed with the dream of building not just a house but a home. I have immersed myself in this project and am creating my tiny home exactly how I imagine it. There is a story and connection behind everything in or on it. That is what life should be like.”

As If From Nowhere: Bookcase Conceals 2 Tables, 4 Chairs | Designs & Ideas on Dornob

This is a clever space saving solution that could be built into a tiny house.

“A spare table and chairs can always come in handy, and theoretically should not have to take up much space – but short of cheap folding varieties, there are few solid-structure alternatives for such situations.”

Restarting Tiny House Living

Hello. I’m restarting tiny house living with a slightly revised format which I think you’ll like. Instead of posting directly to social media platforms like Facebook & Twitter I’ll be posting all the tiny house news I find on Tiny House Living. You can still follow what I find in those places too if you prefer visiting those site to receiving tiny house news by email.

The other big change will be that the emails will arrive as often as I find new tiny house news instead of a weekly distribution of 10 stories. So you’ll get updated more frequently with recent news.

Keep an eye out for the new posts. Thanks!
