Could you live in an 8'X18' home?

Shelves in the Weebee cabin

Tim Guiles was inspired by Tumbleweed, a tiny house company (as they call themselves).  They make a 102 square foot cabin for people to live in called the Weebee.  Guiles founded Yes Wee Cabins in 2009 to continue to educate people about living in small spaces and to present that as a possibility to people.  His house looks like a lot of fun, and both his little and the Tumbleweed cabins look beautiful on the inside, all wood and spacious ceiling with craftily designed shelves to use all the space not needed for walking around.

Tumbleweed sells their plans, the disassembled houses, or assembled houses on their website (the plans are in the $800 range) so Guiles followed that same model, selling a shell, an assembled cabin, or the plans (his plans are only $100 though).  

Guiles also paints his cabin pink, making it uniquely his, and adding to the cabin's charm.  He did an interview to discuss small home living (see video) where you can see how tall the cabin is and how easy it is to move around and live in suc a small space...remember they also had to fit all of the cameras in there to film the interview.

  

Guiles has property in Vermont where he has his little house, so I'm sure he spends most of his time outdoors, but even if you had to spend more time inside (for some reason) you could see that it would be just as good as where you live now, maybe even prettier.  Maybe one day I'll try living in a tiny space, probably right after college would be a good time, after moving so much I have been able to keep my possessions to a minimum.  Just don't tell my mom that I should bring any of the stuff that I left at her house (we'll figure that out later).
