My Tiny House

This blog started as I did the research to build my own non-toxic tiny house.

For a quick overview and tour of my house here is a Q&A and sneak peak.

Here are a few pictures of the house and some posts where you can find out more about it:

The exterior siding is cedar, sealed with a non-toxic finish. The insulation is XPS.

I used low odor poplar wood throughout the interior of the house. The floors are stained with natural pigments and finished with hemp oil.

The windows are custom-sized aluminum frames.

The countertops are quartz. The walls made of magnesium oxide board are finished with a natural clay plaster. In the kitchen they are sealed with a non-toxic finish.

I use a 100% wool mattress with chemical-free blankets.

The bathroom has a custom made aluminum shower and the floors are concrete tiles. I use a composting toilet to be semi-off the grid.

More about my electrical, heating and water systems can be found here.
