Interview with Micro House Scotland 

Are you thinking about self building in the UK? If so, you need to check out Micro House Scotland. ‪@micro-house‬
This guy has taken three years to self build a super insulated mini-house in the back garden of his Edinburgh home. @micro-house
This is the second video I’ve made with Micro House Scotland and in this interview we discuss a range of things that affected the self build project. From Plumbing, to gender ratios on social media, to construction costs and what Micro House Scotland would do differently if he started again.
The video has timestamps, so feel free to skip ahead.

Micro House Scotland also has a website - www.gre.scot/
One of the cameras we used (my one!) keeps moving in and out of focus, I think the shiny vapour barrier in the background affected it.
