Tiny Homes Review

In this project the team were trying to solve the issue of empty wasted space in cities whilst at the same time trying to combat the issue of expensive living. They wanted for people to buy these houses with the ability of taking them wherever they go. One of the main issues I found with this project is that these houses are so small that you can support up to 3 people max with one of them being a child. Any family beyond that capacity will not be able to live in one of these houses. The durability of these houses does not allow for anyone living in area with heavy weather or people who live in California on the San Andreas fault line are also out of the equation. With housing in California being so expensive i'm sure they would love something like this if it were more durable. Another issue I see is with the rubber roofing. Tires are so expensive to replace. The average tire for an 18-wheeler is $250 now just imagine how much it would cost to replace the roof for families of low income. Rubber can dry out and degrade very quickly when in constant sun exposure without moving around.
