Hello ,
I live in the Ottawa region and currently building myself a tiny house. My plan for the exterior walls are as follows, from inside out:
Ship lap wood, plastic vapor barrier,
I see no mention of insulation for you Tiny House, but there is a comma after vapor barrier so I’m wondering if you accidentally posted before you were done writing. We have several pages on Tiny houses where you can get design ideas and inspiration, but also learn the possible draw backs on this page –
Are Tiny Houses Good for the Environment?
Here is a Tiny house designed by an Ottawa University architecture student, it is the best tiny house we’ve seen so far -
How to Build Tiny Houses on Wheels for Cold Climates
We say its the best mostly because it is sufficiently insulated, which isn’t usually the case with tiny houses. Have a read over those pages and let us know if you have more questions.
