Bio
I’m Kristina Munroe. I’m a structural engineer, author, and consultant. My passion is guiding you step-by-step through designing and building a sustainable home you’ll love without the typical frustration, overwhelm, and costly mistakes.
In 2010 I moved my two young sons back to my hometown of Durango, Colorado to build an off-grid home and to start a new life. Along with a talented carpenter, and a couple of helpers, we built a small solar-powered home we lovingly named Twisted Oak. This magical home is not only beautiful, whimsical, and fun, but it heats and cools itself, generates its power, collects and heats its household water, and manages its waste in an environmentally responsible way.
I believe we can all live more abundant lives by lessening our impact on this precious planet and living more connected to cycles of nature. This is not about living in lack, but rather embracing the abundance we have by consuming and throwing away less.
I raised my two young sons in Twisted Oak. And in all those years, I've never regretted creating a small, simple, and affordable home.
We love living closer to nature and reducing (not eliminating) electrical devices or modern conveniences.
