Now in its second edition, updated and lengthened to reflect what it has been like living in the tiny house for two years, what we have learned, what we would do differently and what it has been like transitioning into first time parents in this space.

“A comprehensive and candid look at one couples journey through the design and construction of their 24’ modern tiny house. Having minimal construction experience, a desire to learn and a passion for adventure, the nurse and architect team of Samantha and Robert share the successes and failures experienced during their 18 month do-it-yourself endeavor aptly referred to as, SHED.

Using meticulous photographic documentation and authentic musings the reader is privy to every step of the design+build process and are introduced to the whys and how’s of their more unique decisions, including the implementation of continuous exterior insulation on a 2×3 structure and giving up 24 square feet of living space for a ‘gear room.’

Robert and Samantha will walk you through the intricate process and shed light on their own inspirations and motivations that have led to a vibrant existence living full time in their 204 square foot tiny house on wheels in Washington state. They continue to share their version of the ‘tiny life’ through an adventurous perspective on SHEDsistence.com.”
