Re: permanent sites. Would using concrete sonotubes or slab-on-grade be much more solid against high winds than say, a conventional prefab or mobile home? Nobody is going to withstand a direct tornado hit, but would a storm system passing through with high winds pull one of these houses off its foundation? E.Q., have you done wind tunnel tests? Just curious. These miniHomes are intriguing. Re: permanent sites.

I understand some people are not okay with copyright infringement. Is saving the images copyright infringement when it is for study only? I am also interested in the smallest plan, but I don't know the US pricing. I will look further for answers. Also, the sleeping loft is great for a beanbag that converts to kingsize bed. I wouldn't make modifications to the plan, but if we need to later work with an architect for mods to the kitchen to enclose and enlarge the counterspace, that's one thing I would want to do. For the enclosed outdoor space, I'd also prefer glass unless there's significant savings comparing with a screen porch. Is it okay to save interior images?

Now to convince the family.... One note - the website is not quite iPad friendly. The news page in particular - one can't see the past items on the iPad browser. Also the section links along the top titlebar on the main page are a little staggered. (thought you might like to know). Thanks, Jamie Thomson Hi,

One note – the website is not quite iPad friendly. The news page in particular – one can’t see the past items on the iPad browser. Also the section links along the top titlebar on the main page are a little staggered. (thought you might like to know).
