    No need to have a special lazer to check if window has low-e coating, simply lit a candle and bring it close to the glass. Ordinary glass has an ordinary yellow flame reflection, while low-e is pinky-purple.

    What a great small home. Well thought out and creative design using readily available and affordable materials. The layout of the pine ceiling makes it seem quite grand. Normally I'm not a fan of OSB but the wood creme makes it look fantastic. So much functionality and practicality packed into the small kitchen. The pressed enamel shower base was just out of frame, sadly, but sounds interesting. The extra thought put into the windows, the ventilation system, the cladding and low/0 VOC materials has resulted in what looks like a really comfortable and beautiful place to live.
