We cover a lot of topics from living off-grid to micro-apartments in the city, from homesteading to self-built tiny houses, sustainable living, and everything in between. We also feature a wide variety of spaces with interesting and innovative designs as well as alternative building techniques and materials. You can dive right into our playlists with hundreds of videos you might be interested in, and we’re always posting new videos so subscribe to the channel and click the bell to find out about new uploads!
