Barn shaped small homes on a trailer or not are the way to go in my opinion. I've been watching the small house movement for years. I think living in one full time makes sense for many people. The inside should be finished in pine because it is the lightest, cheapest and most readily available wood in America. It will hold up to travel if the house is on a trailer, and is attractive. I'm undecided on the siding. Wood siding is easy on the eyes, but even with todays finishes you will still have many years of refinishing. Vynal siding is maintenence free, but many could argue it is not echo friendly. I think steel is the least attractive and has the most heat transfer. We are moving in the right direction no matter what style of small home you choose. Mine has a barn shaped roof. The walls are going to be pine plywood. Pine carsiding on the ceiling. I'm thinking log siding. I'm not sure if it will be wood or vynal. The web site will be up by July 2009. Barn shaped small homes on a trailer or not are the way to go in my opinion.
