Tiny Texas Houses


Much has been written about McMansions and their generally detrimental effects upon the residential landscape, aestheticism, and most importantly the environment. With this in mind, it was most refreshing to stumble across Brad Kittel’s work at Tiny Texas Houses.

Kittel designs and build tiny houses – the largest so far being about 4 x 9 metres – through ‘Salvage Building’. Owners can choose from an enormous supply of salvaged doors, beams, and other fittings, to create a perfect tiny dwelling. They are then trucked from Texas to the owner’s property.

Often the tiny houses go over several storeys and incorporate lofts, higher levels and porches. While they are seriously tiny (although no worse than many student apartments in Melbourne!) they look gloriously cosy and seem to have everything you’d need.

There’s an interesting article in the New York Times about the trend away from larger-than-life living.

  1. My wife and i ended up being absolutely cheerful that Emmanuel managed to conclude his preliminary research by way of the precious recommendations he came across out of the
    web page. It’s not at all simplistic to just find yourself handing out tips and hints which usually men and women may
    have been making money from. Therefore we grasp we need the
    blog owner to BE Firm Solution Reviews grateful to for this.

    Those illustrations you have made, the easy web site navigation, the friendships your site make it
    possible to foster – it is mostly superb, and it’s helping our
    son and the family consider that the article is cool, and that’s especially important.
    Thanks for all the pieces!

  4. I want to show my appreciation to you for rescuing me from this issue.
    After surfing around throughout the internet and coming across strategies which are not
    pleasant, I thought my life was well over. Being alive devoid of the solutions to the issues you have
    solved all through your entire guide is a crucial case, and those
    that would have in a negative way affected my entire career if I
    had not noticed your website. Your own natural talent and kindness in playing with a lot
    of stuff was excellent. I’m not sure what I
    would have done if I hadn’t discovered such a thing like
    this. I’m able to at this time look ahead to my future.

Captain Feline employs anthropomorphism to blend pop culture with cats. The results are a collection of fun t-shirts and limited edition art prints – purr-fect for displaying a combined love of cats and cult movie characters! Whilst the debut t-shirt illustrations by Dave are inspired by cult and classic movie characters, the team plan to increase the range to feature other pop culture icons as they grow and expand.
