#045 - How do you build an energy-efficient tiny home? What are the important aspects to consider?
Everett Norris is a Certified Passive House Tradesperson, qualified licensed Builder & Director of EverHomes Ltd.

- The importance of air quality in a tiny home
- Everett's Tiny House Building Workshops
- Hedonic adaptation, finding intrinsic happiness and knowing your "why" for building / living in a tiny house... and more!
