    That's the true spirit of Mediterranean housing! As our brothers in Spain, here in Crete, we also started renovating our old barns and tool sheds, specially since the crisis stroke us.

    It was a spectacular interview And they hear him speak in Spanish and others in Colombia for a long time Who is Neat just to hear him speak.. I really had a great passion for us place..
    I think it’s a great gift that I have to speak Spanish and I can hear it so beautifully when he explains everything it’s just really nice not exactly what you did in Spanish translation to English.. but it was nice that you didn’t do that for everyone else but for me it was nice to get to hear him speak about the kinds of rock they used in the way it was done just amazing what you get out of there words it has more gravity…

    The reason they built to this size specifically was because it was the largest sized home they were allowed. As they mention, this land was zoned for agriculture so permitting allowed for just a 25m2 tool shed. Though it's a good point about the cellar. They also were allowed 50m2 (538 sq ft) underground so that is the next phase of the project. Though it's being created using all natural light (from skylights) since it's supposed to be a cistern.

    Excellent video as always! I love looking at all the places people store things. Some people have never understood the luxury of having everything so close at hand because they've never lived in a small place. To say nothing of the sense of purpose and clarity that small efficient designs can impart. Thanks for the inspiration!
