This is Sonja and Dag’s Norwegian Mikrohaus.

The sleek and modern tiny house is about 360 sq. ft. and includes a kitchen, living room, bathroom and both a loft and Murphy bed for sleeping. Around Easter they built a gorgeous outdoor deck along the length of the house which increases the living space dramatically. You can see more about the house on their blog, Modern Living.

Enjoy!

Pierre and Lea live with their young daughter in a stunning off-grid tiny house perched in the Swiss Alps. It features a giant family-sized bed (no loft!) with amazing under-bed clothing storage drawers, a Montessori-inspired children’s space, and a bathroom with a stunning stone shower.

The home is heated with a large wood-burning stove, and solar panels provide electricity. They have some really clever storage/tiny house hacks including a folding stool that comes out of the cabinets in the kitchen, and embroidery hoops to provide shade/privacy through the circular windows.

Enjoy the lovely tour with Alternative House posted below, and follow the family on Instagram here.

Meet Karin: After retiring she wanted to be closer to her son and grandkids. A tiny house ended up being the best option since they couldn’t find a property with a granny pad already built.

She found her home from a builder who had changed his mind about tiny house living. It has a nice living room, a bathroom, and a full kitchen. Her bedroom is in the loft up a storage staircase.

Read the Q&A we did with Karin below to learn more about some of the obstacles she had to overcome (and is overcoming) on her journey to live tiny.
