Changing the paradigm requires creating examples but also a public desire for it to succeed!

If they do not follow good ideas, think for themselves, can sheep leave the flock?

2008 was a transformative time for me... the creation of Tiny Texas Houses and the beginning of a path that would eventually lead to creating Salvage, Texas from the ethos based on the best of our past resources being saved and used once more to create the best housing in America.

Tiny was my best way to show in the smallest package, the value of the Jewelry Box Home that could be portable and habitable, taxable in an advantageous way that would allow you to hand it off like an heirloom to your children or grandchildren much as many of the houses had gone through before we finally salvaged them after 150 years of life.
