Jay hails from my parts these days, even a stint for awhile in Sebastopol.He designs and builds (and lives in) tiny little homes. The essence of a cottage on a micro scale. I think the only way to live with less is by backpacking. These super-tiny domiciles are on wheels–truly mobile homes, not like those things that get stuck forever in "mobile-home" parks. Since they are on wheels, you can park them just about anywhere. A guest cottage in your driveway? A teen hangout in the backyard? A writer's retreat on that parcel of land by the lake?
You can buy his new book from his website. I recommend visiting and checking out what he does...it's unlike anything you've seen before! You can buy plans for one of these darling beauties or have it built.I've been inside one of them myself a couple of years ago...very cute, very livable and I'm thinking they will keep you from gaining too much weight...you just won't fit inside for too long if you do! And you won't be shopping at Costco anymore, either, unless you plan to use that giant can of tomatoes as a coffee table before you use it!
