The
Annual
Tiny
House
Workshop
Builder Everett Norris often brings together a group of tiny house enthusiasts for the annual Tiny House Workshop.
Each year, during the 8-day workshop, a bunch of keen beans who are not builders learn how to build their own tiny homes under the expert guidance of Everett and his team at Ever Homes.
The workshop is split into a couple of days of theory (covering design, energy efficiency, and airtightness, among other things) and the hands-on building part. According to Everett, there seems to be no shortage of young people who want to afford their own house and wish to live with fewer material possessions.
How was this project implemented?
We are excited that even at this tiny build level, the focus is placed on health, comfort and durability with INTELLO® Intelligent Air Barrier and SOLITEX EXTASANA® Wall Weather Resistive Barrier being used for the construction.
To our surprise and delight, it seems these products also had a far more entertaining purpose. Apparently, they are the latest in the world of clothing and accessories. You be the judge, top hat and all!
But joking aside, back in 2019, a couple of heavy hitters of the tiny house world flew in to do a lot of the training, including Ben Garrett, an Aussie/Canadian tiny house builder and Kiwi/American Bryce Langston. Bryce is the man behind Living Big in a Tiny House, a popular YouTube channel with more than 3.4 million followers!
I guess Everett was right…there is no shortage of interest. So, if you or someone you know would like to get involved, look out for the next Tiny House Workshop.
