Looks like an interesting project. Is there an "Overview" page that gives someone the quick tour without having to read all about each dryer vent and cabinet drawer design and installation?

OK, so I spent some time on that blog last night, and I have to say "Uh... what-ever".

Aside from some personal aesthetic choices (an aluminum ceiling? On purpose? Unistrut running up the walls everywhere?), I can see that these folks are building some preventable problems for themselves, such as using plywood under the sleeping mattress, which will result in some very bad mold and mildew problems in a very short time. Seems like the project is long on idealism and a bit short on practical application of very necessary and time-proven construction techniques and habitation design.

Ah well, we all have to make our own mistakes, and there's no accounting for taste.
