Final Weekend

There are only a few days left of the 2023 Seattle Home & Garden Show!  If you haven’t made it over to Lumen Field Event Center or want to visit again, now is your chance.  This weekend’s features include Ciscoe Morris (Saturday only); Swim/Bike/Run for Habitat for Humanity, on onsite fundraiser for affordable housing; a tiny home village featuring the latest ideas for affordable housing; a human sized billiards game where players kick soccer balls into the table pockets; daily home improvement seminars, and more.

Tiny Homes are Big at the Seattle Home & Garden Show 2023

A tiny home village built by Carriage House Northwest highlighting the latest trends in affordable housing, includes tiny homes that can be used in a variety of ways - from creating additional living spaces, accommodating aging parents or simply as affordable primary residences to help alleviate the region’s affordable housing crisis.

Detached accessory dwelling units (DADUs) are increasing in popularity, especially as homeowners look at ways to do more with their current properties rather than moving, due to high housing costs and mortgage interest rates.  Modular DADUs, which can be built offsite in a factory and then delivered to a site and placed on permanent foundation, also are increasing in popularity and adoption.

All the homes in the exhibit focus on affordable housing, whether it is for use as primary residences (including expanding living space) or recreational housing.  Among the tiny homes on display are the Yucatan, a 26 foot tiny home on wheels with a loft and kitchen; and the Iliad, a 16 foot tiny house on wheels for under $50,000.
