April Hanson’s Tiny House

120 square foot home

PhD Student at University of Oregon and she decided to live in a tiny house after talking to a friend about living simple.

She added her own touch with a gambled roof for her house.

"There is nothing like figuring out how to use a little space in a new way, or how to use what you have to get something new out of it. I love that feeling,” she said.
