Welcome! Here you can view the updates that chronicled the progress of our tiny house’s design and construction. Each entry was posted on the day a report from our builder was received, is dated according to when the work was actually done, and is a combination of our contractor’s words and the occasional comment from yours truly. To see the process in pictures, visit the Tiny House: Gallery.
