Tiny Home Movement.. who's in?

I like this take on it even more.

I don't live in a tiny house but I do have a small home and garage. Aside from the usual expenses such as taxes, utilities and maintenance, it has saved me a bundle over the years.

I don't buy crap I don't need because I have no place to keep it.

Some nice design there Sid. After living in a metal structure for a while now, I'd suggest having a roof cover the total structure.
The temp transfer is an issue to manage.

Even a solar array on racks that create an air space and shade would do a lot for controlling inside temps. Perhaps a good solution for sunshine rich Az.

Yup Solar is on the agenda, as well as a fair deal of insulation! One reason for the high cube containers is they are a bit taller which allows you to insulate well and still have a decent ceiling height.

I think that most cities have a minimum square footage requirement for a permanent house, so to get around that code, they make them portable.
