Larger homes are more costly in terms of building, taxes, heating, maintenance and repair. In addition to costing less, small houses may encourage a less cluttered and complicated life and reduced ecological impact for their residents. That’s the philosophy architect Macy Miller adopted few years ago: “Tiny works with me because I like simple. I don’t have a ton of ‘stuff’, I don’t want a ton of ‘stuff’. I don’t have extended family or kids to shelter. I am single and don’t plan on starting a family for a few years at least. I could afford to put visitors up in a hotel with the money I saved from not paying rent. My needs are simple. A simple house will be perfect for me.” Her house was built on the bed of a 24′ long (8 foot wide) flatbed trailer.  It was built on a trailer not as much to be mobile so much as to have a work around from building permits and codes. Macy designed the house and it was built with the help of her dad and her boyfriend, in their spare time.
