Self Built Micro Tiny House for $4,600

Building a micro house as an answer to high and unaffordable rents.
A family of three + a dog in Belarus, found that they were spending most of their hard earnt pay check on rent.  They saw building a tiny house, as a way of stopping this excessive expense.  The house measures 16 m2 (about 170 sq ft).  This space comprises a bathroom, kitchen, a living space and sleeping area.  Because the space is so precious, everything that the little home contains, has to be essential to the family, there is no room for items you have no use for and store in a cup board just in case...  Many people feel very strongly against these micro habitations, because they see them as a race to the bottom when it comes to affordability.  I can see their point, but at the same time it's a good exercise in assessment of what we really need and how many things we amass in our homes, we have no need for.  Back to the main story, the home cost $4,600 which included all of the fixtures & fittings + thy did the building work themselves.  When you compare that with the $500 (it does not specify, but I am guessing a month) they paid in rent in Minsk, repayment did not take long.  A lot of pictures to see the interior of this compact home with a balcony.  via englishrussia
