We started out with a Hale'20 with 274 sq.ft. Configured as a studio. We just finished a major addition, adding 720 more sq.ft., utiizing standard square corners. Turned the Hale into master suite. It works just fine as a bedroom, bath combination, but I would never, never want to live in that configuration as the entire dwelling again. Much too limiting as far as furniture placement, storage, layout for kitchen cabinets, etc.etc.etc.
The finished walls inside are about 7'2" long ea. side.
One of the features I do like, though, is the cedar & redwood construction. Much more bug resistant. But if it is finished natural, it tends to be too dark for me personally. So we painted (Gasp!) the ceiling white, & it lifted the whole ceiling up & was much less oppressive.
It isn't my intention to negate your interest in the structure, but simply to let you know our experience.
If you have any more questions, email me thru this site.
