Tiny House Student Housing: University Dorm Concept for Architecture Programs

on September 29, 2010

Universities with architecture and woodworking programs could integrate tiny house construction into their curriculum while creating student housing. Architecture students design while woodworking classes build, with some students who participate in the project earning the opportunity to live in the completed structures.

Concept Overview

  • Programs: Architecture and woodworking departments
  • Process: Students design and build tiny houses
  • Outcome: Campus housing units and hands-on experience
  • Benefits: Affordable housing, rental income for universities, practical education
