Most grown children have heard this question from their parents at some point in their lives: “If all your friends jumped off a bridge, would you jump too?”
A 31 Year Old Was Sick Of Expensive Rent And High Costs. What He Did Took Guts… But Look Inside
It’s a question that pushes us to think for ourselves. That question doesn’t inspire me, but this man in California does. Alek Lisefski is a web designer who decided to take everything we know about building a house and flip it on its head. Instead of going in debt for hundreds of thousands of dollars, he built his own home for the low, low price of $30,000. It’s only 8x20ft, but that’s what makes it awesome. It’s a tiny house, it’s mobile and it looks so cool I would give anything to live in it for a day.

Alek wanted to change his focus in life, so he built this small house. “Inhabiting such a small space will force me to live in a simpler, more organized and efficient way.”

Tiny houses may not be right for everyone, but the tiny house movement is growing more popular. More people are realizing that you cannot measure your happiness by the square footage of your house. Instead of going deep into debt to afford a huge house, the people who build tiny houses are freeing up their money and building their dream homes at the same time.

Even if this isn’t right for you, we think you should share Alek’s cool house. It’s tiny, but we love it.
