Review: It's a nice book - I have some experience handling power tools to make wooden furnitures and electrical installations, and I can say this book is amazing. It gives you all the important info you need to start building your own tiny Home. It doesn't have plans but you can easily make them yourself by drawing them if you already know the distribution you want to have for your tiny Home. And if you don't know where to start, take a look on the internet to give you some good ideas. There are also websites with plans for people to quickly download. The only negative thing I can say about this book is that it didn't arrive with protection. The book was unwrapped in the bottom of the box, risking further damage in transit. It has some damages on the corners though and for being someone who really take care of her books, that was a little disappointed, but in the end the info that is in it is what really matters to me.
Review: A very informative read!! - Dan Louche's Tiny House Design and Construction Guide is definitely a keeper and I will be referencing it throughout my building process. Great for a newbie (me!). It covers every aspect of building a tiny, with good images and clear instructions. I only wish I had purchased it earlier during my research phase. I have also purchased Dan's online eWorkshop series at Tiny Home Builders...another "can't do without it" in my reference library. Thank you Dan for your many contributions to the Tiny House community!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thorough on construction, zero on dimensions and hauling
*by W***R on December 28, 2016*

This is a great book for learning the basics of constructing the shell of a tiny house (interior rooms aren't included). This new version thoroughly discusses electrical and plumbing, although, oddly, nothing about heating. The word "design" in the subtitle doesn't refer to any specific floor plan, other than a comparison of two possible layouts of the kitchen and bathroom in relation to each other, and a caveat to avoid wasting space with hallways. And, although construction itself is well illustrated and detailed, I was very disappointed at the lack of two important aspects: 1) I was anxious to learn what the maximum dimensions would be for a tiny house to go down the road. But, other than mentioning 13'6" as the maximum height, there's zero discussion on maximum outside width, typical inside width, inside height and therefore a typical loft height, the pros and cons of a peaked roof versus a single pitch roof, etc. Even for the beautiful house that's on the cover, which is the one being constructed throughout the book, the reader has no idea how wide or tall it is. 2) There's zero discussion on what to expect when hauling one of these down the road. I'm sure legalities vary per state, but there must be *some* universal rules, facts and figures. And how top heavy are these? Is there a considerable stability/safety factor in staying below a certain height, or avoiding a single pitch roof (wind resistance on the high side?), or not building (or at least not weighing down) a loft? Also, I would've loved to have seen a chart showing several tiny house lengths and their corresponding typical weights and the size trucks necessary to haul each one. That said, however, I enjoyed reading this easy-to-follow book, and I think it's probably all that an experienced amateur would need as a reliable reference for building a tiny house ... once he's determined from other sources what his dimensions could be, and therefore, his possible floor plans.
