These tiny homes go up quickly in a day, but even better they are built on “derelict sites”- empty lots.
The Dutch firm Heijmans needs to visit Detroit, where there are many vacant lots.
If you ever wondered if you would feel catastrophic in 200 square feet, spend the night at the Tiny Caravan Hotel in Portland Oregon, the only tiny house hotel. You can also tour six of them on Sundays and talk to the builders.
I just finished a class sponsored by the Energy Trust of Oregon that Kol Peterson teaches to the public and brokers like myself. His next class is March 21 you can register here.
After you take the class be sure to go on the Build Small Live Large Tour this spring, where you can tour 20 small homes for more ideas before you break ground on your own ADU!
Mine own ADU – Sellwood Studio will be on the tour- meet the architect Emily ReFi now with Waterleaf Architects.
When you get past the dreaming stage- I am always here to offer any advice you need.
