In this episode of Living Big In A Tiny House, we delve into the world of resourceful off-grid living with Grant, a man who has crafted an extraordinary off-grid shipping container home. Grant's intentional lifestyle is a testament to taking charge of one's existence, living on one's terms amidst stunning natural surroundings. The home, constructed from two shipping containers, stands as a beacon of sustainable living, surrounded by lush greenery and a unique outdoor cooking area featuring a pizza oven.
Grant's journey to this off-grid paradise began on a former rubbish dump, where he unearthed treasures that now form an integral part of his home's design. The use of stone work and clever layout choices create a harmonious blend of industrial aesthetics and natural elements. From rainwater tanks to a bathtub fed by a natural spring, Grant's setup is 95% off-grid, showcasing a commitment to self-sufficiency and environmental stewardship.
The interior of the container home is a masterclass in maximizing space and functionality. With a cozy lounge area, a well-equipped kitchen, and even a unique heating system utilizing free energy, every detail reflects Grant's ingenuity and practicality. The bedroom and bathroom areas exude warmth and comfort, with rustic touches and thoughtful design elements that make everyday living a joy. Grant's four-year project is a testament to the beauty of off-grid living done right, where simplicity meets sustainability in perfect harmony.
