Project 1: Tiny House
For my first project I was tasked with designing a tiny house. I made the house relatively small with a length of 16 feet and a width of 8 feet. The house itself has a sloped metal roof with 4 full sized solar panels, and wood sliding. The house has both a front and back porch with doors going with them. Inside the house accommodates a bedroom on the second floor, A full sized bath, kitchen, and living room.
Concept Drawing
For my concept drawing I put many different designs in a forest like location to see how they look in place.

Models
When making my models I elaborated from my concept sketches to make bigger and more developed designs, But was not fully satisfied with my designs till I hit my final product.
Making my first models they were very crude and made out of cheap materials, chipboard. Their purpose was more to just get my designs out of my head and see what they looking like in practice. |

When I started to design my first model I was unsatisfied with the very basic design and relative small size.
After rearranging my ideas of what I wanted my house to look like I started to make my second model. From the second model I got the base idea of my final product, with just a few more additions. |

Final Product
For my final product the house was made out of 18 twenty foot long shipping containers. The house accommodates a full sized kitchen, One and a half bath, two bedrooms, Living and Dining rooms, and Finally a garage and separate rooms with storage and systems. The material of being shipping containers really brings out the feel of being a house out on the rocky, stormy coast.
