I agree and am not joking when I say I bet there would be a huge interest in people building them all over the US for/by homeless people, people interested in trying something new, 20-somethings living with parents, etc. The better we get at building them, the better they become and the better we can help others build them.

What other groups can you add to this list, who would be interested in building one of these for themselves?

I doubt this would work out. Social pressure is too strong in the US, even for poor people. No one wants to live in what looks like a 3rd world mud hut.

I am sure the designer could make it look very appealing. Think about the Rocio Romero house or the Container house.
