Introduction We hope that this book can be used to inspire useful designs for the University Tiny House Village and beyond. We have crafted it as a choose-your-own-adventure cookbook. Readily available and affordable design typologies have been listed to present a set of "ingredients". The Recipe Generator is meant as an inspiring, game-like formula for designing useful spaces that are joyful to occupy. A few example designs are provided towards the end. We sincerely hope that this book is empowering and helps meet the architectural needs of Tiny House Villages throughout the region.

Basic carports can be combined for linear expansion.
The basic Rigid Frame design has long been used for expandable spaces. Some proven variations are traditional longhouses (linear expansion) and barn structures (lateral expansion).
Shed roof additions increase sheltered space through lateral expansion.

Operable Rigid Panels
Operable Rigid Panels provide both enclosure and passage ways. They can be used to make spaces adaptive and multi-functional. The forms of Operable Rigid Panels can be mundane or highly expressive.

Pivot: Side
Pivot: Offset
Pivot: Center
Non-Pivot: Slide + Roll
The most basic Operable Rigid Panel is a standard door.
A Rigid Panel can be made more dynamic and serve various functions by offsetting the pivot point.
A central pivot point enables walls to become passageways and create different kinds of usable space.
Non-Pivoting Rigid Panels can create highly variable spaces, suitable for many different uses, with the added benefit of stowing away at the perimeter.
A basic doorway.
A more expressive door that can serve different sizes and functions. (e.g. pedestrians on one side, bicycles or carts on the other side, etc.).
A double doorway or an adaptive wall.
Roll up doorways effectively provide secure enclosure and opening with the added benefit of being very space efficient when in use.

Top-Pivot: Tilt Up
A tilt up panel can serve a large wall space while providing increased overhead shelter and creating indoor/outdoor space. Can require hydraulics or other substantial structural components.
Multi-Pivot: Horizontal
Provides many of the benefits of a standard tilt up panel with lower structural demands. Offers subsequently less covered outdoor space.
Multi-Pivot: Vertical
Vertically hinged Multi-Pivot panels can serve a large wall space combined with efficient usage of space.
Creative Innovations: Torggler's Kinetic Doors
Torggler's doors are very expressive and provide an efficient usage of space, however can be complicated to construct and install.
Torggler's 'Evolution' door. More space efficient, but also creates shearing hazards. https://www.businessinsider.com/klemens-torgglers-kinectic-door-2014-2

Moving Forward Conventional architecture serves as an assembly of raw materials based heavily on specialized design and trade skills. Our hope in creating this book has been to democratize the process, putting the tools for good design and construction directly into the hands of those that need it. With a starting list of "state-of-the-shelf" components the reader should be able to combine and adapt readily available resources to create usable spaces that are greater than the sum of their parts. Please use the Recipe Generator to craft custom solutions to the needs of your own community. Make photo copies and share with your friends or scribble right in the book. Above all... Happy Designing! Moving Forward
