With my current build getting towards the end, I'm looking for inspiration for my next build.
This will be a tiny garden office.

Currently excited by the prospect of using pallets!

I'll throw a few in from my bookmarks to get started. Try and include links if possible.

Yes, seen that one. Though the locations are as much of it as anything.

I like seeing the processes/thoughts behind the build and especially photos of the build process.

get yourself a copy of Lloyd Kahns book, Tiny Homes. Splendid stuff.

The Tiny house websites are good as well.

From that Tiny Homes publisher there's also Shelter (first published 1973) which looks to have a really nice feel about it.
Here's a couple of pages:

I thought this was the neatest use of pallets, until I realised that there really weren't many options for cladding. Their reliance on transparent PVC is somehow unsatisfactory for me personally.

I will be buying that book, I guess that's what my thoughts, would look like if you could see them.

I've added all these books to my Amazon wishlist in the hope that my wife spots them 😉
