Tumbleweed Tiny House Company

Jay Shafer gives a tour of the 100 square foot Tiny House that he lives in. It’s one of several Tiny and Small Houses he has built since 1997 through his Tumbleweed Tiny House Company.

Jay on why he lives in tiny houses:

My name is Jay Shafer and since 1997 I have been living in a house smaller than some people’s closets. I call the first of my little hand built houses Tumbleweed. My decision to inhabit just 89 square feet arose from some concerns I had about the impact a larger house would have on the environment, and because I do not want to maintain a lot of unused or unusable space. My houses have met all of my domestic needs without demanding much in return. The simple, slower lifestyle my homes have afforded is a luxury for which I am continually grateful.
