I started with a number of guidelines in terms of what to consider and came up with probably a similar list to what I imagine many of you are already aiming for.
Criteria[edit | edit source]
Summarized in the following are loose goals and hard limits (among others):
Cost[edit | edit source]
As cheap as possible or free, which includes
- Can't require extremely technical/ unavailable skills
- Can't require more time/ intense labor than a typical small family can supply
- Prefer using scrap/ waste, or reuseables
Limitations[edit | edit source]
Fastidiously avoid
- Adding to pollution, or continuing to use polluting materials in a way where they are still seeping, offgassing, or otherwise not being contained or remediated
- Minimizing the impact of harvesting any natural materials
Please check out my sketches/ notes, below. i'd love to hear your thoughts. I'll be providing cleaner illustrations, typed notes, etc, soon, so sorry about the current sloppiness! (thanks for stopping by!)
