I was recently invited by Ethan Waldman to be interviewed for his Vermont based Tiny House Lifestyle Podcast episode 86. We covered a wide range of topics from surviving LIFE in general to the philosophy and benefits of tiny house building! As usual I will ramble on about Tiny Houses and architecture ’til the cows come home…so I was very honoured to join some of the luminaries of the tiny house movement who have featured in Ethan’s excellent publication - a great resource for enthusiasts and tiny house DIYers.

Tiny House Scotland in a Nutshell:
-
Tiny House Scotland was founded in 2014 by Jonathan Avery. I design and build my unique NestPod™ and NestHouse™ tiny houses to commission.
-
As a master craftsman of over 35 years, I build everything from scratch myself, I only produce 2-3 projects a year; there is often a waiting list.
-
My tiny homes are typically £45k - £75k ex-works depending on specification etc.
-
Every NestPod™ and NestHouse™ is highly insulated; they are built as ‘Proper Houses’ - fully functional architecture for full-time living.
-
My houses bear no comparison to glamping cabins, mobile homes, sheds on wheels or shepherd huts or anything else you will find in the UK!
