When you ask people when tiny houses were invented you get all sorts of answers. And it’s true that they’ve been around for a long, long time. We all know it can be safe to say that humans started out with tiny homes as shelters. So what we’re really doing is going back to the basics. That being said, little homes come in all shapes and sizes. And their builders can get quite creative.
Before tiny houses were commonly built on utility trailers it was more common for them to be built right into trucks. As you know, we refer to them as housetrucks.
