In the town where I was đđšđ«đ§,Lived a man who sailed to sea,And he told us of his life,In the land of submarines,So we sailed on to the sun,âTil we found a sea of ââgreen,And we lived beneath the waves,In our yellow submarine,We all live in a yellow submarine,Yellow submarine, yellow submarine.
Dreamer Keith Lovelock, a former radio technician, planned to do something fun for himself and his wife.

His wife also loved the idea and was looking for something suitable for it. While browsing Trademe (an online auction site) one day, he found a fiberglass silo for $1.
After purchasing this strange item, they had to pay $320 to have it delivered to their farm.

Since the structure of the silo resembles a submarine, Keith Lovelock had the idea that he could turn it into a submarine. So when you look at the books and find out that it will take many years to build a submarine, âOh my God, what have I done?â he thought. However, he started working with his đ€đ©đȘđđ„hood dream and realized his dream in 1 year.

After washing the silo, Keith saw that it was gray and decided to paint it yellow, finding it cold. The reason he chose the color yellow was the submarine in the lyrics of the Beatlesâ hit song âYellow Submarineâ. For this reason, the green sea mentioned in the lyrics of the song was also the sequoia trees in his property.

Keith started to build his tiny house, starting with the façade of the silo he placed among the green sequoia trees.

For example, he created a submarine deck by turning a spare jacuzzi into a sweat. He used an extractor fan for the submarine propeller. He added pieces from old solar panels, television satellite dishes, and airplane floors to create an authentic look.
This yellow tiny house was planned as two floors and recycled materials were used in the decoration.

At the entrance, a kitchen counter made of an old dresser and a Chesterfield leather sofa greet you. In the radar room next to it, there is a table converted from an oak headboard.
