Tiny House Movement

TTiny House Movement. Moving towards a more sustainable and economical future. What is small in size and proportion but huge in terms of environmental impact, affordability, and countless other benefits? This is no riddle; this is a massive movement in smaller scale residential living.

Although frequently less than 400 square feet in size, tiny houses are becoming the next big thing on the Australian housing market.

Movement Tiny House

Tiny houses leave behind a barely discernible carbon footprint. For while the average home produces 28,000 pounds of CO2 on an annual basis, the typical tiny home generates only 2,000 pounds of CO2 a year. Tiny homes are veritable storehouses of sustainable energy, including fully sustainable heat, power and ventilation sources such as solar panels.

Many people crave the freedom to live where and how they choose; and, for that matter, to move about freely as they enjoy the ultimate in independent living. Due to their size, small homes can be placed onto trucks and transported anywhere. Naturally, one can only ‘live free’ if they are free of debt and mortgage restraints; a goal that can be attained with the purchase of a tiny home.

Tiny Homes are relatively lower in costs than a traditional home and can be custom built to meet individual needs. A Tiny house can provide a low-cost living option in places where the housing market is too great.

Limited need for council approvals. Whenever one ventures to build a home, they of course must consult the related codes and council regulations, along with national and state laws, regarding their project. On a general basis, however, the building of tiny homes is not heavily regulated through local councils, and even might be considered comparable to caravans in many regions.

Tiny homes may very well be the homes of the future; leaving a big, beautiful and sustainable imprint on Australia’s built environment.
