  1. This is really well pulled together. The stainless wall opposite the clerestory windows will provide a LOT of light bouncing around, which is countered by the darker color scheme.

    As an aside, since tiny homes are a more personal construction versus a standardized home, can we cut back on the ceiling heights for more headroom in the lofts? If you’re 5’10” you don’t need 8′ of headroom under the loft – I’d think 6″ more than the tallest resident should work well enough and provide better headroom in the overhead loft.

    Honestly, some of these lofts are more like a drawer…

    • I have thought the same thing about the headroom. I could not sleep in like that. I think that after people live in their houses for awhile they put in opening skylights there or if it permanently sited, the add a dormer for head room. there was an architect who did this in her build, the woman who added an extension to accommodate the 2 babies she had. Also a woman named June who did a spectacular red and black build complete with a roof deck. both lowered the ceilings over the kitchen and bath to make for a higher ceiling in the bedroom.

  2. Really nice but the ceiling is too low over the bed for my claustrophobia issues. I would feel crushed. I prefer normal height (no more than 8 inches) risers for the steps even if that lessens the storage area. I prefer the homes where you can actually step into the loft even if that lowers the headroom a bit on the main floor. I’m way past crawling at my age. For me the kitchen is excessive since I am not a cook. I’m sure I’d end up filling the counter areas with “stuff”.

  3. The problem here is that while this is truly a lovely home (with some modifications) it is not a “home” per se and still a mobile home/RV. Meaning that this likely costs about 50-70K and in ten years it will be worth next to nothing. Because it is on wheels it is a depreciating asset rather than a home on a foundation that is appreciating. I appreciate the desire to go smaller, but if people care at all about staying out of debt and building a little nest egg for themselves, this is not the way to go. I expect people to scream that this is their home and it is so much cheaper than buying a regular house. Or that they never plan to sell. But value wise you may as well go out and buy a used RV for a fraction of the cost.

    • You should check out http://www.tinymountainhouses.com. They have several floorplans that fit that description. Not the square footage per se. Their biggest is 355 sq ft, but several floor plans have two lofts and a flex room (bedroom/den/office) on main floor. Look at the Castle Peak model and I believe Mt. Hood. I believe the base is $47k-49k.

  4. Is my depth of field off, or would there be room for a washer next to the sink in the bathroom? I think this tiny house is beautiful. Yes, I would have less kitchen and more living room, and the bedroom ceiling is too low. But still, I love it.
