The appeal of living a more nomadic lifestyle represents a new take on the American Dream, especially among students in this millennial generation. Lots of writing on the millennials suggests that our suburban growth model perpetuated over the last 50-60 years is starting to come to and end.
It’s got its own solar system to power itself, and a bath and kitchen are independently supplied by rainwater. At the end of the day, you just need the environment to sustain yourself. You’re not tied down to a piece of land and be stuck somewhere. You can really go anywhere and do anything.
A 70 square feet “living system” with a composting toilet, rainwater collection system and solar power that is super lightweight and can be towed by almost any car. Built by REED students at Green Mountain College in Vermont. Shared by Kevin Coburn.

How much did it cost
That build is ingenious. Now to make the plans available (or a kit) so we can all benefit. Looks so light weight. Love it.
BRAVO!! Way to go! I look forward to purchasing one of these in not too far off future.
I agree with Mike, its an amazing design and I’d love plans to build one! Well done guys.
Where’s the shower?

Reminds me of the nanobots they send in to heal damaged tissue and internal organs. An army of green berets amassing to battle corporate America and global warming. I’m in!
And a whole lot of plaid!

How can I get a set of plans for OTIS?
What fuel are you burning in the pet stove?
Please keep me posted when plans/kits are available or even more information available.I am 62 years old,wife is 67.I love this project
Very impressive design guys! I love the shape compared to the average stick and panel tiny house on a trailer. Should pull well. I’m curious how you made out with the toilet. I’ve looked into that design myself and disposal of waste is always the tough part, especially in a colder climate where you can’t just bury the compost in winter.
Like everyone above, I would love to have a better idea of the materials involved and any possible plans for this.
Thanks guys and gals!
Does the girl come with it?
I’m a little worried about the warmth. Doesn’t look insulated at all.
Very interested in the plans for the Otis!
While tiny home living all sounds like a good idea but if you stop and think about it you will leave a far greater environmental impact because people will be shitting everywhere cutting down trees to stay warm and cook while cutting each other‘s throat‘s to live close enough to water because they can’t drill well and tie in.. Man made global warming and climate change is a hoax as the climate on this earthly plane has cycled warmer and cooler since the beginning of time.. When the good Lord said go forth and be fruitful he meant do you want to you to raise lots of children and not live a selfish life… Try raising five children having a full-time job banging a drum telling everybody your holier than thou for saving the environment that was never in danger in the first place. when the good Lord said go forth and be fruitful he meant he wanted you to raise lots of children and not live a selfish life… Try raising five children having a full-time job banging a drum telling everybody your holier than thou perceiving the environment that was never in danger in the first place..!! Good ice fishing shack though.!!
