Please send me a note telling me about the floor in this home. It is gorgeous!!
It doesn’t matter if I like, or if anyone else likes it. It only matters if the owners like it. It’s very well made, very pretty. I do worry about it being too heavy to move around a lot, but hey…it’s not my house. I like it. If it were stationary and had some more storage for supplies and food, I’d take two of them. Nice job.
While (to me) it’s not steam punk. There is the factor that the only persons opinion that matters in this story is the person who owns it. If you don’t like it then do what your momma taught you… Say nothing if you can’t say something nice. So many people just don’t care and get righteously rude for no good cause. What they are popping off about has nothing to do with them and yet heaven forbid if they can’t give their non necessary point of view.
Beautifully done. Love the details and that floor is absolutely gorgeous.
I like it and love the modern rustic look that is put into it, but show how unique and personal it is
It’s like there was no one at the helm when designing was being done. It’s not steam punk and it’s not modern. It needs help but it would be a great fixer upper.
How funny you said this. I was just about to comment on how coherent the thought process was in the design of this tiny house. Steam punk is an abstraction of how we now imagine the early industrial-age must have looked. Gas-lit, cog-driven, mechanical — as such the sheer practicality of it represents a relief from our present data-driven digital age. One need only make a few references – the pipes, the grills, the fans, the exposed skeleton of the mechanics, to evoke an atmosphere and I think that’s been accomplished with an amount of charm here.
But to each his or her own. I much enjoyed this imaginative rendition and think I could live there a long time.
Agree, and well-put. Also: what a rockin’ place for an 7-yr-old boy to call home for a while! Imaginatively conceived and precisely executed. Plumbing should be nominated for a MacArthur Foundation award.
If I’m not mistaken this tiny house was designed, built and featured on FYI’s Tiny House Nation. Fixer-upper? I don’t think so Joe!
…AND now I read that at the bottom of the post. Facepalm
What a GREAT mom!
As to the design, Steampunk is is a mechanical/high-tech take on Victorian, emphasis on Victorian. So…this leans deeply into industrial, a different thing altogether, but it is still an extremely awesome place for a 7 year old or anyone young at heart! What are the floors? They look a bit like either reclaimed wood or luminous agate tiles!
“It’s not steam punk and it’s not modern…”
Snobby, dismissive posts like yours are annoying. HOW is it NOT steampunk? whats wrong with the details? Are you saying none of the decor is steampunk? What would you have fixed? How about linking some examples? All I see is a put down and nothing to back it up.
I think its gorgeous. I dont pretend to be an expert on steampunk but that bathroom plumbing especially says “steampunk” to me.
Maybe the kitchen cabinets and the floor dont scream “steampunk” but that wood is soooo beautiful frankly I dont care.
