Small Home, Tiny Home?

What would you like to see?

Dave Mason / Canada: A simple high-ceilinged rectangular design with nice, durable materials that could be "dropped" anywhere and pass most regulations, with good insulation, where one half is a studio style space with big windows and a simple modern kitchen/bathroom and a place for a wood or pellet stove, and the other half is storage that has a large garage door. Price, $20k or so...

This type of aesthetic:

The Big Tiny: A Built-It-Myself Memoir (Hardcover) - April 22, 2014 by Dee Williams (Author)

Dee Williams’s life changed in an instant, with a near-death experience in the aisle of her local grocery store. Diagnosed with a heart condition at age forty-one, she was all too suddenly reminded that life is short, time is precious, and she wanted to be spending hers with the people and things she truly loved. That included the beautiful sprawling house in the Pacific Northwest she had painstakingly restored—but, increasingly, it did not include the mortgage payments, constant repairs, and general time-suck of home ownership. A new sense of clarity began to take hold: Just what was all this stuff for? Multiple extra rooms, a kitchen stocked with rarely used appliances, were things that couldn’t compare with the financial freedom and the ultimate luxury—time—that would come with downsizing.
