Smallest House

Optimum space utilization and simultaneously satisfying all the domestic needs to be learnt from Jay Shafer  the brain behind Tumbleweed's small houses.they go by the concept to dream big and build small.Initially the idea of small houses did arose concerns but easy maintenance and  less of unused and unusable  space made it a welcome decision.The houses have been composed with  meticulously attention to light,warmth and energy efficiency.The houses have cozy interiors by minimizing transitional areas like hallways,stairwells which are otherwise used  for storage.
The smallest house ever measured an area of 96 square ft  was set at  Sebastopol ,California,United States of America.The small house concept result  out of the small house movement .The movement is the outcome of what we are doing to the environment  and in return what the environment is doing to us in the form of Hurricane,wildfire and floods.
Jay Shafer himself sets an example to others by living in his tiny creations  for past a decade.When the concept came up it was a boost to environmentalist  about the prospect of micro house living as it means leaving smaller imprint on the earth.The lifestyle in smaller houses is simple slower yet luxurious demanding very less in return.Jay Shafer's smallest house concept got recognized on June 23,2012.
