Part tiny shelter. Part experiment. Part excuse to spend a Saturday building something unusual. The Stargazer is a simple 4 × 8-foot micro-shelter with a distinctive half-moon shape.
Small enough to keep the build approachable, but big enough to explore some interesting ideas about how little space we actually need. No construction experience required.
The Stone Soup Tradition
Somewhere between the sawdust and the afternoon, we eat. Our Saturday community meal is potluck. Bring something to share — homemade, store-bought, strange, familiar, or simply whatever sounded good that morning.
Everyone contributes a little. We put it all together. Stone Soup. Builders, friends, travelers, neighbors and curious strangers around one table. There’s always room for another chair.
It's to discover how many ways there might be.
There's probably a shelter being built. A table being set. An idea that sounded just strange enough to try.
