Independent Living Without a Mortgage

The brief was to design a micro dwelling for one person. The starting point being the humble garden shed. The issue I decided to address was new graduates having to return home  to  live with parents due to the economic downturn.

My inspiration for compact living came from yacht interiors. The solution was to live independently from your parents in an ILWAM in the garden. The name was a play on the word Wigwam.
