Are tiny houses really sustainable?
That depends on the owner, materials, and basic construction of the tiny house. Many tiny houses are constructed with a lifecycle of no more than a few years. No more than a shed. Not necessarily because of their design or construction, but simply because they were not designed to be maintenance free. No house is. With time, wear and tear and the accumulation of mold, mildew, insects, and dust-bunnies make even the greatest spaces difficult to sustain. Because a tiny house is so small, it is subject to greater human contact and environmental impact. Many can easily blow away.
