Fed up with renting but can’t afford to buy a home? Julian Morgans from Melbourne found himself in this predicament. Instead of whinging about it over craft beers and $16 glasses of wine with friends, like most of us do, he came up with the idea of building a home made entirely out of free materials.

Morgans hit up the local rubbish dump for recycled wood and then got straight to it. You know you’ve got a good friend when they help you move house, but Julian’s friend Jim took mateship to the next level and helped build the house.

Morgans describes the aesthetic as Scandinavian, but the finished dwelling could be best described as modest with a minimalist style when it comes to the interiors. There’s a small bed, small table, a vase with some natives and a 1970s artwork on the wall.

Now that Julian Morgans is a proud home owner living the suburban dream, he’s decided to make a little money from his success and has listed his ‘Micro-lux Outdoor Rejuvenation Hut on Airbnb. Should you have any desire to stay there, it’s available.
