'Trades don't take my tiny house seriously' | Australian Story

?Lauren De Groot says one of the hardest parts about building a tiny home was the assumptions of some tradespeople.
The Eden Tiny House Project provided 15 women $55,000 towards the cost of their own tiny home.
In return they had to put in around $40,000, rent or buy land for the house and organise its construction.
Over three years, Australian Story followed three of those women as they transformed their lives.
