We are exploring options to build small sustainable tiny homes in Sierra Leone. We have selected an Aframe house for our first experiment. These are the designs so far for a modern Aframe house. This experimental home will be build The Eco-Living Oasis at Kent, Sierra Leone sometime between December 2023 and April 2024 and the process will be documented here. The goal is to substitute modern materials with sustainable natural materials to reduce cost and increase our sustainability footprint.
