Simple Living in a Tiny Cabin in the Woods

Now here’s a tiny cabin I think will resonate with you if you’re also into simple living. Sure, this may be too extreme for most of us, including myself because I really am a big people and family person. But it’s something I’d still like to do as an experience once or twice a year. [...]

Tiny Yurt Cabin: Little House in the Round

I love all sorts of small house designs and this one really caught my attention because it’s a mixture of a cabin and a yurt.
