A tiny house built from bio-based materials<\/h5>\n

A study visit to Norway opened the eyes of Elvira, a true city dweller, to a less complicated way of living; a way of living closer to nature. For the third time, Elvira is now building a home together with her husband Kasper. And this time the home is on a slightly larger scale. For the family has grown to four people. But the basic approach is still inspired by the tiny house concept and its solid focus on sustainability: to use bio-based and climate-friendly materials rather than conventional materials as much as possible.<\/p>\n

Many of the materials she uses were actually recycled from various demolition projects, including the beautiful slate roof Elvira has laid herself. Sustainability and climate considerations are not the only issues that concern her. The health of her little family is also a consideration. For, as Elvira says in the film, \u2018when you live in a small space the indoor climate becomes very noticeable. For it becomes a kind of condensed version of a big house\u2019.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>
