I love architecture. Old, new, strange, fun, sleek or rustic you name it, I love it. So when the opportunity came up to build a tiny house on our deck I thought "why not?". Before I knew it my husband and I were finalizing plans for a 12' x12' all inclusive home we nick-named the "shed". This tiny home will have a kitchen, shower, toilet, closet for clothes, living room and upstairs bed/loft. And, once again, we are using mostly recycled materials we have sourced at the ReBuilding Center, the ReStore and Craigslist. Building this tiny, tiny house (as my daughter calls it) is quick and easy compared to the the whole house remodel we did on the floating home. We are going from zero to completed home with three to four months. More photos to follow as we get closer to the finish line.

Floating home conversion on a shoestring.
In April of 2010 we purchased a boat house for a song. The goal was to convert it to a 1,700 square foot home with a small budget and recycled products. So far, so good. The windows are all from architectural salvage centers along with a lot of the wood. It's not complete here but it's well on it's way. Talk about a BIG design project!
