Live tiny without sacrificing the comforts of home with Derek “Deek” Diedricksen’s lively exploration of 40 small dwellings outfitted with features essential to full-time, year-round living — complete with floor plans, real experiences, and expert tips from tiny house residents.
For everyone who has ever dreamed of simplifying their life and downsizing their home, Micro Living offers an insider's look at what tiny house living is really like.
Best-selling author and tiny house enthusiast Derek "Deek" Diedricksen profiles 40 tiny—yet practical—houses that are equipped for full-time living, all in 400 square feet or less. Detailed photography and a floor plan for each structure highlight inventive space-saving design features along with the nuts-and-bolts details of heating, cooling, electric, and plumbing systems.
The real-life stories of residents impart the pleasures, as well as the challenges, of day-to-day living. With tips on what to consider before you build, along with framing plans for a prototype small cabin, Micro Living is the perfect starter handbook for both dreamers and doers.
