Fred Schultz is an American designer and entrepreneur notable in the Australian tiny-house movement. Schultz, an artist and former chemist, moved to Australia in 2001 and designs his houses using the 3D modeling computer program SketchUp.[1]
Schultz designs portable tiny-houses specifically for the Australian climate.[2] They include a composting toilet, solar panels, a bath that doubles as a sink, and a kitchen and lounge area.[3]
Schultz's houses appear in the Melbourne-made feature film documentary Small is Beautiful. At screenings of the film in Melbourne in 2015, a tiny house built by Schultz was on display for ticket holders to view.[4]
