Mini Casa made this casa to celebrate A Sustainably Simple Life. A Sustainably Simple Life didn't make it and isn't affiliated with Mini Casa.
A Sustainably Simple Life is a blog about living sustainably on a budget, with practical ideas for everyday life at home.
Sustainable simple living on a budget.
The post sets out how the two writers define sustainability: a smaller footprint that stays financially workable in a high cost-of-living area, balancing buying less against paying more for products from sustainable industries. The writers say their own area has a high cost of living, and the definition is built around that.

Visit linkTwo friends write the blog together. They say their lives differ in family, housing and work, but their values on sustainability, simplicity and budget are shared. Categories run from frugal living, money matters and DIY home renovation to gardening, upcycled furniture and a solar monthly update. Recipes and cookbook reviews sit beside zero waste coverage, such as Vancouver's zero waste ambassador program.
