This is an amazing video, which goes into depth about the difference between your home (or garden) as your personal place, and your home as defined by the home fashion industry.

Today, I get into what makes home renovation shows work and how they make us feel. I get into my own experience with the channel and then dive into a makeove...

THIS. This is what I keep trying to encourage people to think about. There ARE still some issues with tiny houses,and this video covers all of them.
I love tiny houses, I love what they represent - I think we as humans could definitely be a bit more thoughtful about our footprint on the land. I love that tiny houses force us to think creatively about our home and space.
I do think the Australian Building Codes Board (and equivalent in other countries) need to come up with some standards. I believe the ABCB is already working on it) and that these standards need to be encouraging "fit for purpose", which is somewhat flexible.
But please, if you're thinking about a tiny house, please, please, please 🙏 watch this video.

Absolutely great decorating idea: Go to your local art group and see if they have a gallery... or are having a show. This is some of the wonderful art that is in my art group (none of mine are on show in these pics, so no bias there, 🤣)

You'll be supporting local artists, buying locally and bringing money back into your own area, AND, best of all, if you like the style, but want something personal for you or your client, you can commission exactly what you want!

These are all from the Marburg Art Group, let me know in the comments if a piece is what you want, and I'll put you in touch with the artist.

So, you'll have noticed that I've changed the look and the focus for this page. I'm still able to assist with building biology topics or consultations... but I'm also doing building design, to try and get the built environment to be healthier... from the start.
