Maggie and John Randolph
Maggie and John Randolph.
  • Maggie and John Randolph are building affordable housing in their Southern New Hampshire community.
  • It began as a way to provide housing and childcare to employees at their long-term care facility.
  • Now, they are going beyond that and building affordable housing for the community. 

This story is based on a conversation with architect Maggie Randolph and her husband, contractor John Randolph, who are building a tiny home village in Dover, New Hampshire. The two met in 2015 while working on a project together. The conversation has been edited for length and clarity. 

John: In addition to being a contractor and a designer, we run two assisted-living facilities in southern New Hampshire. We've been doing assisted living and memory care for about 12 years and we have about 80 to 90 employees right now.
