Tiny Living

If you're looking to tighten up your budget, makers of this tiny house promise they can give you a tinier price tag.

Homeowners can downsize their mortgages, and their living room, thanks to Jay Shafer and his Tumbleweed Tiny House Company. Shafer is creator and resident of one of the smallest houses in the world, after shacking up in San Francisco, California in 1997.

The artist and architect builds and sells plans for his miniature homes in size ranging from 50 feet (15.24 meters) to 500 feet (152.4 meters).

Looks interesting, but I don't know how I'd adjust. Especially with the shower! Plus it looks like it's supposed to be pulled around by a pickup.... so is this the new trailer homes? Or trailer homes for upper-middle class people who don't want the "shame" of living in a trailer home?
