Michael Janzen is a legend in the tiny house world, having started his website, TinyHouseDesign.com in 2007 and just continuing to work as a prolific designer pretty much since then. Michael has put a lot of plans out into the world and I have no doubt that there are many, many tiny houses that are built either directly from his designs or were inspired by them. On today's show, Michael stopped by to talk about the second edition of his book, Tiny House Floor Plans. It now contains over 350 tiny house floor plans and it's just a really cool book to look through. The houses are arranged from small to large and if you are in the design or planning process it's a really cool resource to just get some ideas about how you can lay out a tiny house. Our conversation is wide-ranging from things in the tiny house design world that Michael thinks are maybe not serving tiny houses, things that Michael is looking forward to, and more.Full show notes and images at thetinyhouse.net/171In This Episode:Tackling burnout and re-energizing afterwardEvolution of the tiny house through the yearsUnusual, innovative, and fun: Michael's designs and processWhat are we questioning in regards to tiny houses?Is it possible to build a tiny house for free?This Week's Sponsor: Tiny House EngageThe summer can be a little bit too much fun, full of family, friends, distractions, holidays...
