This DIY, year-round greenhouse was designed by Francis Gendron, and it’s ethos is to provide you with an indoor garden no matter what the season or weather outside. Called “The Greenhouse of the Future”, this walipini-style semi-underground structure can provide enough of a micro-climate inside to enable growth, especially in colder climates.
The greenhouses are easily made from salvaged materials, such as reclaimed metal sheeting also incorporating aspects of earthship construction by using discarded tyres. Indeed Francis himself graduated from architect Michael Reynolds’ Earthship Academy in 2012. As we become more socially conscious about how and where our food is derived, so too do we look to try and become more personally involved in its production. In achieving this, our location on the planet will greatly inform what can be grown. According to Gendron, “…the questions people should ask themselves…
Where do I live?
What’s the climate like?
How long do I want to produce food throughout the year (6 months, 8 months, or the full year)?
Do I have access to a sunny place where I can build?
Do I want more than just food production? For example, you may want a beautiful place to relax in the sun during the winter.”

The semi-underground structure of the greenhouse design protects it from strong winds, and heavy snows in addition to benefitting from the passive geothermal energy of the earth.
Gendron has produced a film, ebook and provides plans and designs for building your won greenhouse, which are available here for purchase and download. You can also watch the trailer for the film here.

He has led over 100 seminars on the philosophy and practical skills behind the Earthship concept. He started The Greenhouse of the Future project to create a resilient, organic and local food production solution for any climate. Source
This is Alder, a fully posable dragon commission I worked on in 2012! He was one of those really awesome commissions where I got to experiment a lot, he was great fun to work on. I got him back lately to work on a few touch-ups and I think I’ll make him a new pair of wings.
He's so fantastic I kinda want my own but I bet it'd be expensive xp
last night I was thinking about bees and how dumb it is that science hasn’t given us genetically modified pet bees yet
if you’re reading this, science, this is how big I want them to be
@beezeeart
This is a legitimate thing that should exist. Though @magweno‘s cat sized fuzzy bees come very close. They just need to be alive. Move over, science, we actually need magic side of tumblr and someone willing to throw away all their ethical obligations and bring a poseable toy to life.
I would pay a gazillion pounds for a real giant alive pet bee!!!!!!
But how would you feed a bee that big? Would they make synthetic pollen and stuff or just engineer giant flowers for them? Important questions

This is my standing design. A 9.5′x24′ beast (228sqft) with a shed style roof (high side with door). There is a loft over the bedroom and bathroom side of the house at 7′; which does not make for a very roomy loft but allows just enough room to have the water tank and a guest bed (Kyle has one friend who ends up spending a fair amount of time sleeping on the couch currently so I figured if I didn’t want to be stepping over him I should put in somewhere for him to sleep).
There is a double bed, apartment sized electric appliances (fridge, range, washer/dryer), fold out tables, air conditioning, in-floor heating, dual-flush toilet, average sized tub, small stairway up to the loft, a full sized entertainment unit, plenty of cupboards in the kitchen (the one wall has cupboards much higher to allow for the small kitchen window as well as an anchor point for the microwave), guns stored out of the main living space for better security, a proper closet in the bedroom with still 3 bed drawers to allow for two peoples clothing, a large main closet for boots and coats (We do live in Alberta, winter is a thing), a large fold out kitchen table (with double folding to allow for more or less room as required), bean bag chairs (got some super comfy ones from walmart), fairly large outside-access storage space, and lots of plug-ins (every circle with a 2 is a single plug-in, with a 4 is a double - also having a 4 in the loft for the extended guest).
There is also a 36″x16″ window in the loft for emergency escape (any space that is to be occupied for sleeping requires an escape route in case of emergencies such as a fire), smoke detector (as there is no longer propane appliances in our tiny house we do not need a CO detector), fire extinguisher (potentially three; one in the kitchen and a smaller sized one in each sleeping location - loft and bedroom), vent van in bathroom as well as vented microwave to control moisture and to circulate the air, plus we have a bird so if the air quality becomes bad he’ll probably show signs of illness to let us know (this is totally a joke I really don’t want to accidentally kill him).
This design will be built on a 8.6′x24′x30″ flatdeck custom made trailer. That is assuming that I don’t continue to modify my design (this is the seventh I think).
HOLY CRAP THAT’S A LOT OF WRITING; I have a few other designs for single or dual (non-couple) residence but i think I have spammed tumblr enough for now

This design is 9.5′x20′ and was made because I decided having a bedroom when you live with someone who can end up on night shift is a really good idea. It is also useful to have separate spaces when you don’t want to do the same thing or need to be alone for a while. I also made this as a 24′ design to allow more living room space and an extra foot in the bathroom which allows for a small normal sized tub.
This design features apartment sized appliances (range, fridge, washer/dryer combo), single sink, flush toilet, shower (or bathtub with shower), coat closet, 5 bedroom drawers and hanging space for clothing, double bed, fold up tables, gun storage, LOFT (with 36″x16″ window as an escape route in case of emergency) for guest sleeping space (or for children), water tank storage and hookups, and storage space. There is also a small storage space under the bed which is accessible from outside. And yes those are bean bag chairs for seating.

This is a 9.5′x20′ design; I had made a design for just myself where the kitchen ended up being on one wall and the bathroom on the other and I liked it so much more that I had to redesign my two person home to have the wall kitchen. That single design also had a component where I put the water tank up on a loft above the bathroom (Instead of in a utility closet on the end of the trailer) which gave me more floor space so I incorporated it in as well.
This design features electric appliances making this an on-grid design, as well as removing the need to have propane tanks. There is also a window on every wall to allow for cross-breezes from any direction. This design has been posted before with sketchup images.
In this house; full size range, over-range microwave, apartment size fridge, combo washer/dryer, shower, flush toilet, double bed with three drawers along one side, and one drawer on the end. extra clothes storage with the hanging closet, coat closet, entertainment center, gun cabinet (ended up moved to the wall at the foot of the bed beside the coat closet as a hand built unit).
TH Design Spam
This design is 9′x20′ without a sleeping loft; there is a small ‘loft’ above the bathroom and kitchen for either storage purposes or as a guest or child sleeping space if preferred.
I came to the conclusion that there was no way I was ever going to actually want to climb up into bed every night (I used to have a loft bed and a lot of the time I just slept on the floor - especially when I had to climb up a ladder) so I had to find a way to have the bed on the main floor. So since Kyle and I tend to be hermits I went with making the entire place basically a bachelor suite, just with a real kitchen because I like to make food but mostly because cookies.
So then this design includes a small bathroom, coat closet, gun cabinet, combo washer/dryer, microwave (which was moved to above the W/D to allow for a proper vent hood - a full propane stove required better ventilation), 20″ propane range, propane fridge, 600cu vent hood, 1.5 size sink, double bed with 6 drawers for clothes storage (as well as a small hanging section beside the gun cabinet), wall mounted TV with shelving for gaming systems, and bedside shelves.
This design would also have had a small deck which would be easily taken apart and fit in the back of a pickup truck for ease of moving and for entry into the home as well as for having a BBQ because BBQ food is so fantastic

This is an 8′x20′ design with an 11′ loft. I finally looked up information on trailers and had decided that an insulated ‘cabinet’ at the end of the trailer would solve my problem of were exactly I should be putting the water tank and all of that important utility stuff that most houses have a little room for (Water tank, pump, heater, solar control, propane, electrical panel).
I spent a lot of time planning this design up to choosing appliances, windows, and the location of lights, plug-ins, and switches. This design includes an entertainment area, full bathroom (minus the sink - that’s in the kitchen), small gun safe, long kitchen (with a 9cuft fridge, range with three burners and oven, double sink, and microwave with built in vent), combo washer/dryer, coat closet, full size mattress, dresser, tiny potted garden, and bbq.

Second Tiny House design is an 8′x12′ design with a 3′ porch extension that I made up without looking at an actual trailer dimensions. I am pretty sure a 15′ trailer would have to be custom built.
Anyways this design features a whole lot of loft space and almost no lower floor space over 7′ in height which is fine if you’re shorter and not around 6′ in height and have a tendency to wave your arms above your head (yeah I get excited easily and have hit my hands on all sorts of low hanging things).
This design was basically my attempt to convert my 10′x12′ shed design to a more trailer friendly design since I had heard most tiny houses built on trailers were around 8′ wide and didn’t want to deal with wide load permits, and yet I somehow added in a stacking washer dryer and a gun cabinet (super impractical for getting into the bathroom however).
This might be a good design for people who don’t have a requirement for gun storage. I apologize for the fuzziness of some of the writing in the corner its mostly just optimizations to the entertainment cabinet for slide out tables and pet friendly hiding spots.
