Blog #14- How tiny is too tiny?

 
           This week we watched a really cool and motivating film called Tiny.  It is on Netflix but it was sure a movie I had not heard about before taking this class.  It is about people that build their own little house on a trailer pretty much.  Their house is only 100-200 square feet and some are even smaller then that.  They do this because they want to live in a smaller place and enjoy the environment more then the inside of their own home.  It forces them to go outside more and spend more time outdoors since inside is much smaller then a normal house.  There are probably more then just that reason too.  I think that whoever came up with this idea is really cool because although you are living in a box pretty much it makes you think about all the things you buy the things you bring home and how to use things that you would use everyday.  Also the layout of these houses are pretty coll.  I’m one of those people that goes house hunting for fun and goes and looks at model houses because they are bored.  You get so many ideas from these and after watching this movie I got so many ideas on how to use things and how to store them so that they are not in the way and they are hidden. 

The other thing that was pretty cool is how they build it.  They have to get a trailer and then build a house on top of it.  Oh, and they have to make sure that it won’t move in the middle of the night, or during a thunderstorm.  Also they have to make sure that it is sturdy enough to hold everything and that they outside won’t get ruined if there’s a huge snow storm or earthquake even.  It will probably be hard but if you are up for it then I support you no matter what!  It is a great thing and a pretty cool one at that.


This is at rue story about living small but exploring big.  It is a whole new world when you watch it and it kind of makes you wonder how they do it and how they make it work.  It can amaze you to just think about how people are okay with it; I know it amazed me when I watched this.
