Beauty surrounds us all, it’s in nature, it’s in our relationships and it’s within ourselves. Seldom though, do we truly strive to make our living environment as artful as it could be, a true extension of the beauty we are capable of creating. When constructing their tiny house on wheels, this couple ensured they lived up to their vows and they built a home that is as beautiful and artful as it is clever.
This tiny home was owned by Gauri Ma and Nirvana. They promised each other that they would walk in the way of the beauty of art. Everywhere you look, there are beautiful decorative touches.
The tiny house itself was designed using sacred geometry to work out the proportions.
The first thing you notice when approaching the house is an ornate archway, which Nirvana actually crafted for the pair’s wedding.
This serves as a gateway between the home and the garden, and Nirvana says it serves as a nice reminder that the garden and the home are not only connected, but the garden is really just an extension of the home itself.
Stepping through the gateway and entering the home is equally enchanting. Immediately you’re greeted by a northern sunroom, with recycled windows framing a stunning view of the surrounding landscape.
The entire design of the home is open, allowing for easy flow and contributing to a wonderful sense of spaciousness. It has a large kitchen, comfortable bedroom and a room to the west which will eventually become a shower room and access to the rear deck. There is plenty of storage throughout the home, and the home’s different levels create some interesting zones.
Behind the beauty of this home, is some true genius when it comes to its construction though.
The house is designed with some modular components to allow it to easily be transported on the roads, but extend out with additional wings once the home is in place.
In order to do this, some clever engineering elements have been added into the home, from gas struts to expand the roof and the creation of a special winching system to lift the floor. The home’s design was somewhat influenced by the incredible transforming castle truck.
Be sure to watch the full video tour of this stunning home on wheels in the video above to get a true sense of just how magical this space is. Enjoy the tour!
The most beautiful house in the world is the one that you build for yourself.
