I could live in a small beach bungalow in Hawaii or condo/apartment in the middle of a city like NYC, Nola or San Fran as long as I was by plenty of restaurants and bars and had good A/C/heat, running water and internet.

No. I am already miserable in my apartment.

Hell, Jones' house has 3 bedrooms and I still have the urge to get rid of half the crap in it.

If you don't mind my asking, what did you design your floor plans in?

Also I know you said you were concerned about moisture from having an attached green house, what if you put a hall/walk way in between the kitchen and greenhouse. You could put two sets of doors in that way plus have 5-8 feet of separation that might alleviate moisture concerns while still having an attached green house.

If someone wanted a more permanent, safer, low cost solution, shipping container houses are the answer. 

I had some cool plans drawn up to do something like this on my empty lot where my house used to be pre-Katrina. It would've been elevated and multistory, and I could've done most of the work for cheap, minus the crane work needed to lift them in place. I also had the building codes figured out, but the city code people and planning commission would've fought me the whole way. The end result would've been about 1300 sq. feet.

Like paying for a space someone else owns, assuming you're renting.

I don't remember what it was called, but it was one of the main free apps on my iPad. You can even toy with the wall thickness.

There's no way I could do it. You should see the way I maneuver myself in my apartment bathroom as is.

The smaller the space, the more of a neat freak you have to be.. which is okay to some extent, but when my house looks gross because I left 1-2 things out before bed, it is a problem.

You need a vanity table. Life changing thing girl.



You can just sit and do your hair and makeup comfortably and not leaning over a mirror in a tiny bathroom trying to balance your hair dryer and flat iron on your tiny bathroom counter. Mine has a drawer like a desk that I have all my makeup and jewelry in as well. It was the one thing I insisted on having space for when we moved

I have a friend who's about to be on that Tiny House Builders show on HGTV. I couldn't live in one of those things, but her and her boyfriend are pretty excited to. They're perfectly capable of affording a decent house in the area too and have great jobs, so it's not a money thing for them, it's a lifestyle thing. She doesn't feel like she needs all of the room of a regular house and wants to live a minimalist life.

One bedroom/studio apt in a dense populated zip at around 6-700 sq ft is what it takes to make me happy
