Short description of the idea (140 character tweet):

TinyHackerHouse is a community development effort to build affordable sustainable housing.

What is your project concept or idea? What challenge or opportunity will it solve?

There are many challenges in this space which is exciting, from finding property to building codes, permits and regulations.

Who will benefit from your project? Describe the humans at the center of the problem - who are they? This initial solution will be targeting singles, couples or small families, that value freedom more than luxury.

How would they benefit? Can you tell their story?

There are so many benefits, beyond the physical, but owning your own place instead of renting is just the beginning.

Do you have photos of them? Or quotes?

Yes
