Gridbeam's pretty good for building just about anything human scale. I sure would like to see more gridbeam ideas spread around. DIYers also need way more help with practical methods and skills with electricity, attaching motors to things, using surplus industrial supplies and housing systems such as plumbing, roofing, foundations, fenestrations, etc.
Tools promote the idea of elderly, small or disabled people participating in custom designing their own lives too. Computerization promotes the organization and transfer of information between geographies, cultures, demographics. (Sometimes I wish people would study more so-called Third World ideas for application in developed countries.) Urbansteading is blossoming. People want methods to live more naturally even if they still must work in the Big City and live in the mainstream much of the time. I see Hexayurts as a bridging construct in an overall shift in sensibility toward a new type of self-reliance. If you can house yourself, it makes Home a formidable positive reinforcer for independence. Everywhere you look, you see proof that you can take care of yourself and your family.
