About the Author
Gabriella and Andrew Morrison designed and built hOMe, their tiny house, for $33,000 including all appliances and finishes. They have been living in it full time since 2013 and have saved tens of thousands of dollars already by simply not having any more housing payments. Gabriella and Andrew have over 20 years of experience in the field of construction with a specialized focus on eco construction practices. Tiny house living became appealing to them after they realized that living the "American Dream" was actually a nightmare and that the larger the house they moved into, the more their family dynamic suffered. Living tiny has brought the family closer together than ever (they have a 20 year old son and 17 year old daughter). The couple travels around the world presenting on tiny houses, minimalism, and how to create an outstanding life. They also offer workshops that teach people how to build and create a customized tiny house lifestyle. Gabriella and Andrew are passionate about empowering others to break away from the rat race so that they can reach their highest life goals.
