How to Convert a Shipping Container into a Tiny Home
Shipping Container Tiny Home |
Most of my life, I've dreamed of owning my own home. As I've grown older, I have yet to make that dream happen, and I have found myself really interested in tiny homes for the past several years.
These home are, well, TINY and that is a part of their charm. They are cheap to build and upkeep. You can build them out of most any kind of container. Did I mention cheap?
They are energy efficient. They don't have to look like storage containers as you can cover them in any housing material, if you desire. They can be small, or you can stack them and design storage 'mansions!
Unless you are an architect, or a carpenter, you might need help with the vision, the design, your DREAM of your own home. I ran across this website back some time ago when I was collecting information and compiling my file information on tiny and container type homes.The site offers 4 books that are COMPREHENSIVE about the designing, building, and budgeting. It's a wealth of information that can easily save you time AND money and get you in your home much sooner! Also there is an amazing 3d home design planner application!
I found so much value in these books as they really helped me narrow down a lot issues I was unsure about, as well and inspired me and made this whole journey much easier, less stressful and much more FUN!
I suggest watching the short 6 minute video that explains, inspires and Goes over a ton of information Click here for video.
Leave a comment if you live in a tiny home, know someone who does, or are interested in them at all - I'd love to hear from you!
