Humble Homes, Simple Shacks, Cozy Cottages, Ramshackle Retreats, Funky Forts

Humble Homes, Simple Shacks, Cozy Cottages, Ramshackle Retreats, Funky Forts PDF Author: Derek Diedricksen
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 0762776315
Category : House & Home
Languages : en
Pages : 121

Book Description
This Old House meets Wayne’s World in this zany guide to designing and building tiny homes Derek Diedricksen has always had a love for small, modest houses ever since his father gave him the book Tiny Tiny Houses by Lester Walker for his tenth birthday. Combining his artistic abilities, wild imagination, and his passion for small houses, he self-published Humble Homes, Simple Shacks, Cozy Cottages, Ramshackle Retreats, Funky Forts, and Whatever the Heck Else we could Squeeze in Here in 2009. This book is a collection of Diedricksen’s creative/imaginative sketches for building small houses, shacks, cottages, and forts. The sketches are accompanied with hand-written commentary, both instructive and comical. Derek’s main purpose is to get your creative juices flowing and encourage you to get off the couch and use your hands. Believing that specific building plans squash creativity, he avoids too many detailed instructions, giving you the chance to put your own creative spin on your very own small abode (even if it is just in your imagination).
