How tiny is a tiny?

To get a real sense of what fits (and what doesn't) inside miniscule square feet, the AJC's Adam Carlson and Ashley Twist Cole recently took a tour of a tiny house in Cumming, built by Dan Louche.

Louche runs Tiny Home Builders; and he regularly runs workshops for prospective tiny house-ers in a large field near his mom's home. (He built the tiny house the AJC toured by himself.)

The good news, Louche said? Building a tiny house, and living in one, is easier than almost everyone thinks.
