Small is beautiful. I would rather live in a small apartment than a giant house.

I like his use of bamboo. I’ve heard that because it’s such a fast-growing plant, it’s extremely renewable and sustainable. Good to also hear in this video that it is also durable enough for flooring even in high-traffic areas.

That recycled carpet thing is so cool!!! I wasn’t so sure what it would like considering it’s made of scraps of all different colored carpet, but the one in his home looks really great!

I agree with Justice, that carpet is really amazing. Plus you can have the satisfaction of having designed your own carpet! His looks really cool.

I don’t know if the “”P-House” is really the best name for your home. Otherwise, I really like the house and the tips in the video! Thanks SCGH

Miss Schwab isn’t a fan of the color green?! That’s funny.

It took me a long time to catch on to bamboo, but now just about everything I can buy in bamboo I do. I have bamboo furniture, bamboo kitchen utensils, bamboo everything.

This house is really cool. I really like his use of windows to make the home look bigger.
