Tiny Homes. I want one. Better yet, I would like to design my own from a single 40x8 foot shipping container. The house would require an activity & people centered, not stuff centered life.
The New York Times wrote about this phenomenon back in 2007. Their multimedia presentation gives a nice overview of the topic.
Recycled shipping container. Luxury. Simplicity. Tiny. These are not words that easily combine, but I believe that requires a different perspective on life. The movies below are some of the basis's of my inspiration. A shipping container would be highly mobile as well and find its home comfortablly in a narrow city lot or a great expanse of wilderness.

Hey love the tumbleweed houses video! Here's their website in case anyone is interested http://www.tumbleweedhouses.com/
I learned about this because of the environmental impact. Sprawling "McMansions" as we call the new construction in NoVA, are not pretty or beautiful or wonderful at all. They aren't unique or special, they're space hogs!! These little houses are such a great idea and would really allow you to live almost anywhere. It's a great idea and a great post!!
