The Origin of My Social Enterprise We have just recently launched our official website (australiantinyhomepods.com.au), which has been 6 months in the making. We will be incorporating the company as a Pending BCorp Social Enterprise. The original idea of Australian Tiny Home Pods (hereafter ATHP) was conceived during my trip to Central America, where I observed that the demise of the very successful ancient Maya civilisation, was brought about by their own practices that led to substantial changes in their environment and eventually the local climate. I saw the parallels with our own current environmental/climate situation and concluded that we need fast solutions to the galloping crisis of our time. The Purposes of ATHP The environmental footprint is at the heart of our mission. The big picture is also factored in, in terms of sustainable land use, low impact living, minimum household energy consumption and accessibility. In summary, ATHP is predicated on the needs to:  minimise our footprint on Earth  provide solutions to housing affordability  create sustainable and inclusive living situations to combat homelessness, poverty, expansion of urban and rural areas, natural disaster impacts, displacement and every kind of housing challenge that faces our communities at present. How We Achieve the Above: Our Flagship Product We have created Australia’s very first Tiny Home Pod Code Assessable, Class 1a Removable Residential Dwelling. What that means is, unlike other tiny houses that are on wheels (i.e they are vehicles), Home Loans with low interest rates are available. As well, First Home Owner Grants can be claimed if eligible. On the environmental side, it is Category 4 Cyclone Proof and BAL-40 Bushfire proof. It’s White Ant and Termite proof and has a NatHERS 8+ Star energy rating. Moreover, there are several living green walls inside the home. A complete self-sufficient off-grid home is available too.
