I love the idea an Oakland Artist came up with. Gregory Kloehn can turn just about anything into a home. He'd also like to start doing weekend workshops to teach others how to make them. "A lot of people who hear about what I'm doing want to get involved," he said. "Maybe we meet someplace and put a couple homes together."
