Stephen Marshall built his first tiny home as a way to afford his own home in the pricey San Francisco Bay Area. A few decades later, he designs and builds custom tiny homes for people who need extra space, live-in caregivers, home offices and even those breaking county laws and living in his tiny trailers.

In this video, Marshall of the Little House on the Trailer talks about building codes, DIY and tiny homes, the Tiny House Movement as a media event and how McMansions are the fad, but tiny houses are here to stay.
