For our very own tiny home, the Hügge House, here’s a list of partners we included in our build:
For the Hügge House we used INTELLO X, which is a robust exterior grade vapor variable air barrier. It offers the highest level of protection for insulated assemblies against moisture induced damages in enclosures – even for challenging constructions such as vapor closed flat roofs or highly insulated walls. It can act as a temporary WRB/roof and is ideal for commercial construction (metal studs, high rises, prefab panels) and for roof renovations from the exterior. It can be applied on the interior or, when temporarily exposed, applied on the exterior of buildings.
Sustainable Northwest Woods was used for live edge slabs throughout the house. These slabs come from city trees that are removed due to disease, hazard situations, and development as the city’s urban density increases. Each slab features the rough, natural edge of the tree, with all its unique characteristics.
PureBond hardwood plywood from Columbia Forest Products gives you all of that. PureBond panels made from the best quality hardwood plywood are used in making cabinetry, closet systems, fine furniture, architectural millwork and more.

NuLeaf’s nutrient-recycling treatment removes over 99% of contaminants. In some places a NuTree can have an ROI of less than a year and are cheap and easy to expand! Recycled resources cut down on overhead, and expandable systems turn wastewater challenges into an opportunity for growth.
