Tiny House in Trees in Maine

"…Step inside the 350 ft2 (32.5 m2) Tree House and you will find a cozy space brightly lit by many windows and skylights. A comfortable window seat invites you to curl up with a book, take a nap, or enjoy the ocean view. There is also a table hinged to the wall so it can be folded up out of the way when not needed. A ladder takes you up to the sleeping loft.
   Other than the built-in furniture, the interior is unfinished with no insulation or wall finish, leaving the rough-sawn Douglas fir framing on view. Both levels have their own balconies, with the lower one connected by a rope bridge to a zip-line.…"

Live Deliberately: Simplifying

When we decided to take the step to build and then live in our 120 square foot house we made a conscious choice to be off the grid. We chose a minimal solar power system that would run our lights, laptops, and other small appliances. We didn't plumb the house and instead we gather water from our spring and use our Berkey water filter as our primary water system. Our motivation for this was to prove to ourselves that we could do it. We decided simplifying our lives was the best way to live deliberately.

As it turned out, this simplification of our lives was the most important thing we did in this process. I found that reconnecting with more manual tasks helped me reconnect to my life in way that I didn't realize was a problem for me. In many ways this concept went hand in hand with the glorification of busy-ness in our culture. When you listen to your own language you may find yourself thinking - or even saying out loud - "wow, that person has too much time on their hands!" But, what does that mean? We have this expectation that we need to maintain a certain level of busy-ness in order to keep up with our own culture.

What I realized was that slowing down and doing things more deliberately was exactly what I needed to give myself more time. 

Here is what I mean by that. I work from home and I am a morning person. When I get up with the sunrise I am ready to hit the computer and start writing for my clients. Right around lunchtime I start to get a little restless so I will do my daily chores. In my case it is typically refilling the Berkey and emptying the gray water bucket into the artificial wetland. This burst of physical activity gives me a renewed energy to finish any other tasks for the day.When I was working in a more conventional way I would begin to lose energy after lunch and avoid productive work as much as possible until the clock read 5:30 and I could get the hell out.

Before moving into the tiny house washing dishes and doing laundry were the two things I hated the most. I always told myself I didn't have "enough time" to do them. When I got home from a 9 hour work day with a 45 minute commute each way I felt I "deserved" time to myself to not do any work. Dishes piled up in the sink until they had to be put in the dishwasher. Clean clothes would stay in the dryer until I needed to pull them out, de-wrinkle them as best as I could, and wear them for work. Now, with our simpler life, things have changed. Dishes are simply part of the cooking process. I changed my mindset and rather than hating the task I incorporated it into my daily routine. Laundry is now an absolute pleasure at Bar of Soap where we can wash our clothes and enjoy the company of others in our community.

Of course, you don't have to go primitive to enjoy a simpler life. Start by reconsidering the tasks that you hate the most. Think about ways you can incorporate them into your life differently so you change your entire approach to them. Rather than giving in to our culture of  busy-ness, take some time to step away from all of the outside stimulation and back into yourself.  Check out this post from Zen Habits to give you some ideas. As they say the short answer is to identify the things that are most important for you and to eliminate everything else. That is what I did and I wouldn't change a thing.

How do you live simply?

Reclaimed Space

by Kent Griswold on July 5th, 2011. 36 Comments

Guest Post by Tracen Gardner

I came up with the idea for Reclaimed Space when I needed a living space on my ranch outside Shiner, Texas. There was no electricity or running water on the site, which is located 15 minutes from the nearest hardware store. I did not want to use all that energy driving back and forth and was concerned with not only with time constraints but also the confusion involved in meeting sub contractors in a remote area. I was afraid of not completing the project in time and that it would take too long to "dry-in" if I worked only on weekends.

I decided to build my Reclaimed Space to fit a "shipping envelope." Not so tall that it would hit bridges, but wide enough to be usable. I also incorporated sustainable practices I learned at UT like cross wind ventilation, single pitch roof optimized for rain water catchment, solar compatibility (orienting the space long way east/west preventing too much sun), over insulation, and the use of piers. The piers eliminate the need for a lot of concrete and are able to relocate easily if needed.

Since I painted my way through college, I knew where most damage would occur from the sun and rain. To compensate for this, I placed galvanized tin on the bottom 1/3 of the north and south walls, and almost all of the east and west walls. The structure was built with eaves for the same reasons.

Next came style, for years I had collected 100 yrs old material with great appreciation for it's structural strength, historic value, rich colors and textures. I was happy to do my part to save landfill space.

Once the first Reclaimed Space was built, friends told me I should start a business of building and selling more. Three months after completing the first Space, I called Dwell magazine. To my surprise, I received a call back 3 hrs later from the President, Michela O'Connor Abrams. She asked if she could meet in two days for dinner. Michela changed her flight plans to stop by Austin on her way to San Francisco from New York. She asked her SW Branding representative Nualla Berrells to join us. Over dinner Michela invited Reclaimed Space to attend their Dwell on Design conference in LA. It was at the end of June, only 3 months away. This opportunity gave RS the perfect platform to represent it's model of effeccient, quick build, shippable, and "drop-ready" (able to plug in and use immediately) spaces.

We were received brilliantly. Over 14,000 attendees toured the Space. I can not remember how many people came by 2 or more times, brought their friends to show/tour, and commented that they felt our Home was the best attraction at the show. I was afraid we would be looked at as "The Beverly Hillbillies," what a great relief to get so many compliments, to see so many world renowned designers asking to take photos, and to meet so many intellectuals in the sustainable and architectural communities. The Space was featured on several LA news broadcasts, we were asked to be interviewed for 15+ videos, and professionally photographed by Dwell and many others.

Instead of paying to ship the unit back to Texas, I came up with the idea to sell it at the show. At first, Dwell was on board, but later recanted because they felt it would not be professionally correct to support one vendor and not the others. This did not slow Reclaimed, we came up with a new idea: to sell the Space using eBay and give half the profits from to Habitat for Humanity. The Space soared in price, by the closing, we were able to sell it for $75,000 and donate $10,000 to Habitat. The actor, TJ Thyne, from the TV show Bones was the lucky winning bidder. He located his Space in Southern California. Later, Dwell supported the sale of modular homes during their convention, they even invited us back, really, they demanded we come back, and deeply discounted our vendor fee. During the next year we received an award from the Environmental Protection Agency for their Life Cycle Building Challenge. We flew to San Francisco for the West Coast Green Conference to receive our award and to – Hide quoted text – give a speech. Wow, what an honor and experience, my degree in Environmental Resource Management was paying off.

We started to get more and more media attention, from solar, sustainable, building, small living, design, and re-use magazines and blogs. Two authors even included Reclaimed Space in their books. Our sales really took off once the Austin American Statesman wrote a lengthy article for their real estate section, front page, with some great photos.

Our next Space, built, shipped, set and electrified in 4 short weeks, was purchased by a couple in Marfa, TX. It is a sewing room/guest home on the grounds of what was once owned by Donald Judd, the famous artist. Next, we built a guest home that was shipped outside Austin for an expanding family. A few months later, we built and shipped the "Land Yacht" outside Bastrop, TX for a professional sailing couple.

They wanted their ranch home to reflect the clean lines of the 140 ft sailboat they use to tour the world. While we were building this Space, we were de-constructing the 1880′s Shiner Livery Stable for the Shiner Brewery. The "Land Yacht" was finished in all Shiner material, it even had the Spoetzl Brewery Shiner TEX brand on the plank we used for the bar top. As all this was going on, we were also building the 2nd Dwell Show Home. Another great show, more press, architects, designers, and videos.

Later, we delivered a Space to a remote ranch outside Navasota, TX for a weekend retreat that will eventually be used full time. We started building furniture for the Spaces, new clients, our own office, and for my personal bedroom. This summer, Dunton Springs Resort in Colorado, ranked 6th most exclusive in the world, flew me up to design a "Glam Tent," a canvas camping tent joined with a Reclaimed Space bathroom, front facade, decks, outdoor claw foot tub, and large pine poles to support the tent fly. This will be a prototype for what may become a whole new resort on a 520 acre fishing ranch on the Rio Dolores with 8 "Glam Tents" renting for as much as a $1,000/night.

Next week, we plan to re-locate the original Space form my ranch to a private horse ranch next to the soon to be completed F1 track. This will be it's 6th move. Because we do not use sheetrock there are no repairs, after each move we have been able to use it within minutes of delivery.

Three short years later, we have de-constructed over 10 homes, 8 small-medium sized barns, and the 8,000 sq. ft. Shiner Livery Stable. So far, we have saved over 3,120 cubic yards of landfill space, moved into an enclosed 7,000 sq. ft. warehouse where we can build up to three Spaces at a time, and finished out all 4 of our offices to demonstrate our material types. Just this week, we have been asked to be covered in a documentary movie about reclaiming and small home living.

Our rusty/patina style and sustainable designs continue to grow with our diverse client base. Thanks to the great wood artist Brian Welch, 3-D artist Hayden Lindley, and all the skilled sub-contactors, our future looks great, it will be dusty with more de-cons and remote gravel roads.

How to Make a Tiny Home More Efficient with Window Utilization and Design

by Kent Griswold on August 30th, 2013. 15 Comments

by John Tenuto

Tiny homes are already much more environmentally friendly than the common McMansions sprawling across America, but everything can always get more efficient in an age when human motives are being questioned and energy-yielding natural resources continue to dwindle. Any progress is positive.

The tiny home movement is significant, as the direct sidestepping of traditional American real estate beliefs challenged societal norms where housing is considered. People are starting to realize that bigger isn't always better, especially at home. Those in this movement are always making progress, and today I want to add one more thing for them to focus on: windows.

Just as they are within traditional properties, windows are a critical component when the entire efficiency of the tiny home dwelling is considered. Windows need to be positioned, designed and utilized in the correct way for energy performance to reach its potential. If you have a tiny home or are just curious about this form of real estate, these are some quick ways to mold the windows around green thinking:

1. Install and utilize curtains or blinds

While most people already have them, some don't. One way to make sure the window areas of your tiny home aren't taking away from your energy efficiency is to utilize blinds or curtains. This can make a legitimate difference in the way your tiny home loses or gains heat. Over time, this could end up saving you some serious money on any energy costs you have and also reduces the strain on the environment. Plus, blinds can add character without taking up
space (space is hard to come by!).

2. Apply fresh caulking around your windows

Windows are often sealed with caulking, and like most other substances, it wears down and dissipates as a working material over time. If you're a tiny home owner, consider applying fresh caulking as frequently as every 4-6 months. Any deficiency in insulation involving one of your very few windows can be really noticeable in such a small place. This is increasingly important to make a note of if you live in a location with extreme seasons. You don't have to be professional and it shouldn't take long to reapply caulking before and after the four major seasons.

3. Replace weather stripping

Whether stripping is a common component of home windows. One way to directly increase the efficiency of climate control in your tiny home is to replace the weather stripping. For one, it's easy to do. Secondly, it will be affordable because you won't have many windows to update. Regardless of how you produce and store energy within your tiny home, doing this can help your efforts.

4. Install window films

Not only do window films protect furniture and enhance privacy, but they also fall within the environmentally friendly argument. Window films can slow down the transfer of energy from inside to outside and vice versa, thus naturally decreasing the strain on your climate control system. Whether it's a wood fire or a minimized custom HVAC in your tiny home, its efforts will be aided with the addition of these films.

5. Use windows effectively

There's only so much you can do to make your windows more efficient, especially if you don't use them properly. For one, only open them when you see the decision aiding your comfort or energy efficiency in a meaningful way. If you need a breath of fresh air, so be it, but do your best to try and avoid situations like leaving them open when you head to work. This type of action can quickly become detrimental to your energy use.

Tiny homes are very sustainable relative to the other real estate options within our society. However, everything can get better. While there are plenty of ways to make progress within your tiny home, designing and utilizing you windows effectively is a nice place to start.

Clothesline Tiny Homes

Clothesline Tiny Homes

by Christina Nellemann on April 1st, 2013. 34 Comments

When a custom home builder and an architectural designer decide to build a tiny house together, there is a guarantee that something special will be born. Shane and Carrie Caverly of Clothesline Tiny Homes are currently living in their new 144 square foot baby and are also available to design, consult and build custom homes for anyone looking for a simpler lifestyle. The married couple decided they were fed up with paying rent and mortgages and having nothing to show for it, so with their 30+ years of combined building skills they drew up their own design that is timeless, clean, and modern.

So why the funny name?

"Shane thought of it!" Carrie said. "I came up with about a hundred names, including Roadrunner Tiny Homes (which I still think is awesome) but none of them were sticking. We were out in the backyard at our former rental house, next to the clothesline, and Shane said 'What about Clothesline Tiny Homes, because it's so small you're going to need a clothesline.'"

Carrie feels their home design is unique not only because of the size, but because of the shape and design as well. The Clothesline tiny house is one level on a gooseneck (5th wheel) trailer, so there is no loft and tall ceilings throughout. The couple veered away from the typical tiny house use of pine paneling inside and went with white, painted drywall which is smooth, clean, bright and modern. They also modernized the exterior siding by combining a readily available siding product with galvanized metal flashing for a smooth surface. The home also has closed cell poly-iso foam for insulation, a steel roof, a gray water collection tank, an incinerating toilet and an on-demand hot water heater.

[View the Caverly's tiny house construction and moving videos]

"Our house is also unique because it is designed for two occupants," she said. "There is a large "great room" comprising the living room and kitchen. A galley bathroom separates the bedroom from the great room so we can occupy separate spaces in the house at different times with visual and acoustic separation."

Living in a tiny house has allowed the couple to accumulate less stuff and get outside and live life. They own the house outright and this has allowed them to live debt free and save up money to buy their own land. Currently they are parked on their family's 5-acre property outside of Santa Fe, New Mexico. The tiny house has a water and electrical line running from the main house.

"It's a beautiful rural area dotted with pinions and junipers about 15 minutes from town," Carrie said. "The trees afford both of our families privacy — we can't see each other's houses — but we have neighbors that we love and can share life with. It's wonderful having community."

Carrie and Shane were initially concerned with finding a place to park their home on wheels.

"We almost abandoned the whole idea of a tiny house when we started researching where to park it. They are almost illegal in most places and we envisioned ourselves wandering around, house in tow, searching for a place to park ourselves," Carrie said. "Thankfully, we have had nothing but wonderful luck finding places to park it. Our first spot in Prescott, AZ we found on Craigslist: a landlord had torn down a garage on one of their rental properties and was advertising an RV space for rent with full hookups."

While they love the lifestyle, there are a few things that the house does not have.

"It's tiny! I don't have an office or an art studio and Shane doesn't have a garage or shop, which are spaces that we both need. We make it work though," Carrie said. "The toilet has been a huge source of irritation and frustration. I understand the beauty of traditional flushing toilets and sewage systems! Living in the water starved Southwest, we didn't want a flushing toilet though. It also seems insane to defecate in pure, filtered water. The incinerating toilet is not a perfect solution and I'm not sure composting toilets are either."

Besides the imperfections, the Clothesline is allowing Carrie and Shane to move away from a past foreclosure and rental costs to a debt-free life. They are also working on a new project — the Beehive Mini Mart.

Little House in Spokane

by Kent Griswold on April 2nd, 2013. 48 Comments

Here is our little house story in Spokane, Washington.

In the spring of 2006 I was walking through my neighborhood, as I had done so many times over the years and for some reason I really noticed this small, tired and neglected building with its Mission Revival architecture, very unusual for Spokane. As an Albuquerque, New Mexico transplant, I was automatically drawn to its style. It turned out the owner was a local contractor preparing to demo the building and construct a duplex. My partner, Val, and I made an offer and were soon the new owners of the North Hill Substation, built in 1930 as the local utility power distribution site with a mere 374 square feet and 13ft ceilings. We started ever so slowly, huddled in a corner with an electric heater, pen and paper and tried to wrap our heads around our vision for this great piece of history. It has evolved to what it is today affectionately called "The Little House."

One big obstacle to this adventure was learning to let go of all my stuff. As a dealer and collector of antiques I had a daunting task ahead of me! For 4 years with the help of eBay, Craig's List, thrift store donations and the dump I was able to whittle things down. Two years ago I was ready to vacate my 1500Sqft apt and see if I could really be happy in one fifth of the space. I made due with a woodstove for heat. I also had a propane cook top and refrigerator I used previously for camping. I found not only was it do-able, but soon realized that less is truly more. After 13 years, Val and I decided to move in together into her house. But with 2600 sqft, 3 bathrooms and kids grown and moved away plans have changed once again. Together we are diligently working towards the "small move" back to the Little House.

 

Over the past 6 years we have come to realize that all of our possessions and collections were nothing more than a burden. In the meantime, the Little House has evolved! Today there is a 6ft stucco wall surrounding an organic garden, fruit trees, and a chicken coop. Little House has a loft bedroom, a kitchen with real appliances, a bathroom with tub, hot water, and flushing toilet! It has turned into an oasis in an urban environment.

Due to the limited space we did have to make some compromises. For example, the bathroom sink was a great find, but only 8″ X 8″. What more do you need to brush your teeth? The hot water is provided by two 7 gallon electric Bosch tanks which have proven to be just right! And one of the best parts is the European washing machine/extractor.

If you ever find yourself in Spokane, WA we are currently renting the Little House on Airbnb https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/638847 so if you want to give our Little House a try before we move in, it is available as we rent it daily, weekly, or for special events.

P.S Val & I have spent the last 6 weeks in a 40 sq ft camper with our two dogs and are beginning to wonder if the Little House is indeed now too BIG?

Tiny House in a Landscape

Bob Hepburn sent me a neat picture of his cabin to use in the Tiny House in a Landscape feature. Here is a little information about it from Bob.

Called "My Father's Cabin" in Casco, Maine. It's a 12 x 16 x 15 foot affair with a nice spacious loft and is still a joyous work in progress. Almost done with the insulation — next up is doing the interior paneling and finishing the up the floor. An oil-filled electric radiator keeps the place surprisingly toasty!

Pammie's Tea House

by Christina Nellemann on August 26th, 2013. 15 Comments

The Tiny House Blog has profiled Dayton Taylor and his vintage trailer builds and restorations before, but Dayton also constructs small structures and introduced me to a tiny tea house he recently built for his decorator wife, Pam. After working on vintage trailers and "Man Caves" for himself, he promised his wife that her tea house would be a place just for the ladies.

The house, which sits in a tea garden in the couple's Temecula, Calif. backyard, took three months to build and Dayton made up the design as he went along. The house is five-sided and 14 feet by 14 feet. Dayton said he built it as a pentagon shape for good luck and Pam has decorated it with soft colors, chandeliers, vintage hardware, a Dutch door and bead board on the walls. The house has air conditioning and a small sink.

"The women love it," Dayton said. "Surprisingly, the men love it too. This was my first attempt at building anything "estrogen injected" so it was a challenge. For a while the pendulum swung WAY too far to the "girlie" side of the equation so then I had to reel myself back in and find that middle ground."

The next issue of the Tiny House Magazine will be featuring Dayton's Woodie Love Bug and you can view more of his trailer restorations at Vintage Trailer Crazy.

Living on the Lane

by Kent Griswold on March 7th, 2013. 38 Comments

By Alyse Nelson

Akua Schatz and Brendon Purdy's dream was to live near relatives, but they couldn't afford a home in Vancouver, BC's Dunbar neighborhood. Instead of moving to the suburbs, they decided to build a 500-square-foot laneway home in Brendon's parents' backyard.

A few years ago, this wouldn't have been an option for the young couple. Rules for laneway houses, as these backyard cottages are called in Vancouver, were adopted in 2009. Laneway homes are small backyard cottages that face alleys in traditional single-family neighborhoods. The density is hidden from the main neighborhood streets, leaving the appearance of Vancouver's single-family neighborhoods intact. But while you might not see this hidden density, it could have a huge effect on the number of people able to call Vancouver home – nearly 70,000 single-family lots are eligible for an additional dwelling unit.

The Vancouver regulations allow a one-bedroom 500 square-foot laneway house on 33-foot by 122-foot single-family lots. The larger 50-foot wide lots can have a two-bedroom 750 square-foot cottage.

As homeowners build small dwellings, they provide lower-cost housing within the existing fabric of their neighborhood, with no government support necessary. Vancouver's planning director, Brent Toderian, sees this as the essential value of the trend towards small homes: "[It's] about ordinary people. Thousands of individual homeowners can do it, one by one by one. It's publicly propelled, not corporate-propelled densification. It's gradual. It's discrete. It's green."

Small homes combat neighborhood decline brought on by shrinking household sizes. Adding people can revitalize a neighborhood, allowing schools to stay open, giving neighborhood businesses more customers, making transit service cost-effective, and saving on infrastructure costs. Infilling neighborhoods with backyard cottages helps add more people to a neighborhood, without altering its character.

In a city where the average home price is $725,086, laneway homes can cost between $185,000 for an average home and $340,000 for an up-scale laneway dwelling.

Schatz and Purdy spent about $280,000 to build their one-bedroom laneway home. Their home may be small, but it is only a 10-minute bicycle ride to Schatz's office. When choosing between their backyard cottage and a larger house in the suburbs, it was a no-brainer: "You're looking at three-hour commutes, and I just don't want to spend my life doing that," she told the National Post.

Upstairs view of Brendon and Akua's laneway house.

There's another plus to their backyard home: Schatz and Purdy recently gave birth to their first child and have babysitters just feet away from their front door. Their eventual plan is to switch places with Purdy's parents and live in the larger home as their family grows.

Schatz suggests redefining success: "It's really a North American concept to have success tied to moving away or distancing yourself, so maybe we're reinventing what it means to be successful, and that means keeping family close."

Tiny Re(E)volitions Kitchen

So much time is spent thinking about the exterior build of tiny houses – the trailer, the framework, the weight, the roof, etc – that the interior is often overlooked. But is that wise? Isn't the interior what transforms an otherwise stark and impersonal trailer or foundation into a home? It is if you ask Stacey Pridgen of Rooms and Spaces and tiny places.

"The interior is what turns a trailer into a home. It is where a person lays their head at night and you want that person to feel like they are in a palace and not an outhouse," says Pridgen.

A contractor, creator, builder, craftsman, artist, and innovator for over 25 years Pridgen has been putting hammer to nail since he was just 16 years old. "I started when I was 16 years old or so. I got a job with a construction outfit as a framing assistant. I spent a lot of time helping, lugging material, and trying to learn the trade."

Stacey never remembers wanting to be a doctor or a lawyer or any sort of corporate tycoon. He craved the dirt and the outdoors. College never even appeared on his radar as he went directly from high school onto the job site.

"I've been more with companies although I have been an independent contractor a couple of times. In 1998 I got my contractors license and struck out on my own. But after about two years I settled back down a bit and joined up with a big construction outfit out of Goldsboro, NC. We handled a lot of state and commercial contracts. We did some pretty big homes too. I mean huge."

In 2003 or 2004 Pridgen got an offer to work with a trailer company. They hired him to do almost everything regarding trailer interiors. Oddly enough they specifically told him they did NOT hire him to do cabinetry; the one thing he is best known for now! "They wanted me to do electrical, plumbing, etc. I had to learn a lot just to make it there. I stayed there for about 8 years. In about 2008 when the economy started suffering I kind of fell into living quarters. I knew how to do so much with the trailers that I was able to fill several spots. I worked hard to earn my place there."

Having gotten his introduction to tiny houses about three or four years ago when his sister showed him the Tumbleweed website, Pridgen has been instrumental in several builds including most recently his custom kitchen cabinetry and finish work in the Tiny r(E)volution tiny house kitchen. With over 4,000 views of the photo album on Google and nearly 200 comments left around the Internet it seems Pridgens work is appreciated around the globe.
