Small, compact buildings offer an appealing way to live more sustainably, providing smart, energy-efficient housing at low cost; a route to escaping the financial shackles of long-term debt. Living Big in a Tiny House celebrates the diversity of tiny houses, and explores many of the innovative living solutions that tiny house-builders have developed in response to the challenges of smaller spaces. The author, Bryce Langston, has a significant international following through his YouTube channel, and devotes himself full-time to meeting tiny-house owners and discovering their stories. This book provides a fascinating look into the rapidly growing tiny-house movement, details the author's own tiny-house journey and showcases 40 innovative small-space dwellings from across the US, Canada, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. It is a must-have for anyone interested in living well with less, as well as an invaluable source of ideas for builders, designers, and aspiring tiny-house owners ER -
