This tiny house documentary was created by Kirsten Dirksen, it’s called We the Tiny House People. In the last few years, we’ve gotten to see a lot of tiny house and simple living videos, and most of them are thanks to her.

Nobody has been more dedicated to bringing you closer and closer to these homes and their inhabitants than Kirsten Dirksen of Faircompanies.com. Her first interview was with Jay Shafer was approximately five years ago and it has now reached more than 1 million views.

Since then she has gone on to cover so much more, including Jenine Alexander’s self-designed and built $3,5000 tiny house made from recycled materials. After filming hundreds of hours worth of simple living footage- from people living in converted shipping containers, garages, houseboats, sheds, tree houses, and Airstream trailers- she has now released her first documentary (see below).

So here’s a tiny house you might have a dream about tonight. It’s from a builder called Molecule Tiny Homes. The most notable feature is the porch which flips up and down.

I like this feature because wherever you might land, you can easily extend your outdoor space without having to actually build a deck or anything. In addition, you get to maximize the interior space as much as possible since the porch flips out. This is something I’ve always wanted to see incorporated into a little house on wheels, so I was thrilled to see it.

A few days ago I got an e-mail from a guy named Johnny about a tiny house he built on a trailer. After a few exchanges, he said he’d be glad if I shared the information and pictures with you. Some of you might be excited to know that it’s for sale.

The house weighs about 9,000 pounds. Johnny built the trailer from 6″ channel steel which was reclaimed from a tractor plant in Kansas City that was torn down. He said, “It’s good old American made steel from the 1940’s”. The trailer is 8′ 6″ wide and 20′ long.
