I recently attended the first meeting in a ten part series that will ultimately result in a tiny house prototype for homeless people. It was facilitated by Rochester Greenovation in Rochester, NY rochestergreen.org. The idea is to build a tiny home from salvaged materials such as pallets and old windows. The first meeting involved brainstorming with members of the group and sharing ideas about the design. In ten weeks, we should have a prototype. This installment of my blog is intended as a resource for group members, but it could be useful to any other individuals or groups contemplating similar projects with similar goals.
I will try to update this post as I find additional helpful material. I'll start with a video about pallet types and how to break them down.
Nine people attended the meeting, including me. I enjoyed meeting everyone, and I thought there was a good discussion. Some of the talk caused me to think of some work by the tiny home designer, Michael Janzen. What follows is from his website http://www.ninetinyfeet.com
