The tiny house movement has been trending in the past couple of years. Tiny house owners live in houses of about 300 square feet, that they either build themselves or commission from professional tiny house construction companies. Tiny houses can be immobile, or they can have wheels; They can be made with traditional materials such as wood or bricks, or they can be made from recycled materials such as old shipping containers, boats, and cars. Basically, if it has four walls and a roof- it can be a tiny house.

Tiny house owners live their lives free. They don’t have a mortgage to pay, they can travel the country if their house is on wheels, and they can sometimes even generate their own electricity with solar panels and gather rainwaters in a tank, thus avoiding bills – and unnecessary emissions.

Tiny houses may not be for everyone, but they sure are an interesting answer to our world’s problems. And who knows, maybe in the future we’ll all downsize to small, mobile, self-sufficient spaces.
