New!<\/strong><\/h1>\n

(october 2015)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We have added two new dates for the workshops: Saturday, December 12, 2015 and January 16, 2016<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In addition, you can now get the PowerPoint presentations of the workshop. Perfect if you live far from Bois-des-Filion, or if you simply do not have time. You can even book a consultation with Gabriel Parent-Leblanc, founder of Habitations Micro\u00c9volution, to answer your questions after reading.

Tiny houses interest you but you do not know where to start in your planning? This is normal, there is so much information available everywhere … It’s easy to get lost!<\/p>\n

What regulations must I obey? How to insulate my house to make it comfortable? How to organize my drinking water supply and how to handle my waste? Where do I park my future house? How can I be autonomous in my energy and water consumption?<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Since our foundation in 2014, we received an incredible amount of questions by email, telephone and during visits in our house model. Tiny houses attracts a lot of people, and for good reason! However, you probably realize this already, building a tiny house is complex and requires some investment (time, money, etc.), both for planning and construction. For your convenience, we now offer a complete workshop about tiny houses. After a day with us, we want you to have all the tools at hand for a successful dream house!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The workshop is aimed at both self-builders and neophytes who want to know more about the subject. You do not need to have any prior basic knowledge to take advantage of the training. Here are some of the topics to be discussed:<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image border_color=”green” img_link_target=”_self” image=”1277″ alignment=”center” img_size=”full” style=”vc_box_border_circle”][vc_column_text]\n

Workshop details<\/h1>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

Location\"TINY_HOUSE_JS_15\"<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The workshop will take place directly in our tiny house. This is actually the perfect place to learn how to build one! The house is located in Bois-des-Filion, on the North Shore of Montreal. By registering, you will receive the exact address and directions to get there.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Your instructor<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The workshop will be given by Gabriel Parent-Leblanc, founder of Habitations Micro\u00c9volution. He is a biologist and has a master’s degree in environmental management. His master’s thesis<\/a> focused on green building, more specifically on the analysis of the environmental impact of heating and insulation solutions available in Quebec. Without false modesty, he is one of the best people to teach you because he built with his own hands the tiny house in which the workshop will take place.<\/span><\/strong> He also lived in the house during the winter of 2014 – 2015, so he can advise you on things to do and not to do.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Price<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Attending the workshop costs 249,95 $<\/span><\/strong> *.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However, we have a promotion to celebrate the new workshops dates! From October 19, 2015 to November 2, 2015, you save $ 25 on the price of admission ($ 224.95).<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You also have the opportunity to purchase our Set of 3D and 2D drawings, list of materials and additional photos<\/a> at very low prices by participating in the training. Normally $ 174.95,we give you the set for only $ 100<\/span><\/strong>. We can also draw your personal plans, please ask us about it during the workshop! Finally, you can also register in groups of 2 people (couples, friends, etc.). This saves you $ 100 on the regular price (ie $ 150 by November 2) and you will have both access to all plans.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Date and time<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Our first workshop was held in October 2015 and we had a really interesting group! We wish to repeat the experience with two new dates:\u00a0Saturday, December 12, 2015 and January 16, 2016 from 9h to 17h<\/span><\/strong>. Plan to arrive 15 minutes in advance for the course to begin on time!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Other useful information<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u2022 A vegetarian dinner<\/span><\/strong> will be served at lunch hour by Sylvie Leblanc, naturopath and intervener in the field of healthy eating for over 30 years.<\/a> Please notify us in advance if you have food allergies.<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0There is only 6\u00a0places available<\/span><\/strong> per workshop. Indeed, a tiny house is by definition a small space; there is no space for a bigger group. We could give ourselves more space for the workshop, but learning directly into our tiny house is too interesting. Moreover, because the group is small, it leaves you more time to ask questions and discuss your project with the instructor and other participants.<\/p>\n

\u2022 All information will be presented with a Powerpoint on screen. All PowerPoint presentations are available (download) directly when you book the workshop.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”grey”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_column_text]\n
