Lately, I’ve been seeing
a lot of media coverage for what is known as the Tiny House Movement. This fad has been picking up steam for the
past couple of years. Where in years
past, Americans have been hog wild about moving into ever larger houses, the
trend lately has turned this concept on its head. In fact, some people are now taking tiny
houses to an extreme, by moving into dwellings that would have been considered
backyard sheds in years past. We’re
talking houses with less than 500 square feet of living space. Sometimes significantly less. I’ve seen tiny homes as small as 300 square
feet. I have owned garages with more
space than that.
