A new article on Tiny Texas Houses and the tiny house movement hit the presses yesterday. Tiny Texas Houses are built from salvaged and renewable materials. These beautiful little homes show how old items can be reused and made into something new.

The article shows how people who have bought these homes use them for different purposes, from homes to art studios. Read the original article at statesman.com.

Not Everything is Bigger in Texas

More publicity for the “Tiny House Movement.”

A new tiny house article written by: Amy R. Hughes of This Old House Magazine.

In 2006 Brad Kittel expanded his salvage business, Discovery Architectural Antiques, in Gonzales, Texas, to include diminutive, one-of-a-kind houses built almost exclusively out of the vintage materials he stockpiles; typically only the plumbing, electrical systems, and insulation are new. Each one of his Tiny Texas Houses evokes a period style, whether it’s a Queen Anne dripping with gingerbread trim or a gambrel-roofed Dutch Colonial.
