Hi, I’m Dan Lester,
A construction and engineering academic with a penchant for the hands-on approach.
I am now diving headfirst into the monumental task of building my own tiny house from scratch. This is my diary, blueprint, and open workshop rolled into one.
To every tiny house dreamer, future builder, or curious soul, welcome! Armed with my construction and engineering background, I’ll steer us through the confusing maze of tiny house construction. From the early sketches to the joy of delivery day and every saw cut and screw from thereon in. You can expect an unfiltered glimpse into both the challenges and the wins I encountered.
More than just building a small dwelling, I aimed to strike a chord with those who seek inspiration. I wanted to connect with those craving a minimalist lifestyle. Watch a mere vision evolve into a home brimming with life and intuitive design.
Join me in this thrilling venture as I track progress, pivot through obstacles, and craft not just a house, but a home.
Let’s explore what it truly means to scale down in size yet dream big in ambition.
"Your dream home isn’t about size—it’s about freedom, creativity, and living life on your own terms."
