Located in Amsterdam, this modern houseboat with a rooftop terrace has three levels. The private studio on the top level is available to rent through Airbnb. Here I’ll share with you a tour of the private studio.
Inside the one bedroom studio is a living area with a built-in desk, bathroom and small kitchenette. Including the large rooftop terrace the top floor is 753 sq ft.
The terrace provides additional living space when you open the glass sliding doors. I could imagine napping in the hammock on the deck.

Nestled in the woods of the Netherlands is this little yurt cabin. I think you’ll like it because it seems to be equipped for full time living with everything you need.
With a pond near by and the stillness of the woods this is a great spot for deep contemplation or tranquil place to live.
Invite the outdoors in with the large glass front doors. I love the exposed beams on the ceiling in this cabin and be sure to check out the bathroom and laundry room combo.
What do you think of this little cabin design? Could you live in something like this full time?

A cozy vacation cottage tucked away in the woods of Pender Island, British Columbia, Canada. This cottage was restored by the owners who are very crafty with woodworking, stain glass and plastering. They call it the Artwood Cottage.
The cottage has a sleeping loft, open living and dining room, a small kitchen and bathroom with composting toilet.
You can see their creative touches throughout the cottage including earthy textured plastering on the walls.
They’ve replaced the wooden stairs that lead up to the sleeping loft. And check out the custom railing upstairs. Plus the fireplace downstairs seems to be wrapped with natural stone.
Explore the Artwood Cottage below.

A desert paradise near Joshua Tree, California with two dome homes and a swimming pool. Experience peace and quiet at the Dragonfly Desert Retreat.
Here you can stay in either one of these dome homes. Both are completely off grid and solar powered.
The first dome is 20 ft around and is decorated with a unique artistry flare. Inside is a queen bed, full sofa bed, small kitchenette, table with 4 chairs, and plenty of windows.
The adjacent dome is 22 ft. with huge windows however it’s unfinished and has uninsulated walls. It still has 4 comfortable full size sofa beds with huge windows overlooking the views. This dome can be very cold in the winter since it’s not insulated.
The owner, Magdalen Boyd-Wilson says, “Dragonfly is an alternative solar powered, off-the-grid, artistic, architectural and sculptural project that has been and will evolve over the next few years to its completion. As an artist and a designer, with a passion for alternative architecture, Dragonfly Desert Retreat represents a vision perhaps ¾ finished. In 2006, I began designing, building and living here for 4 years full time, with much fewer conveniences than it now has. While I am still working to complete the vision and make it more and more comfortable, the setting allows one to experience the pioneering spirit, and feel a deep connection to the exquisite natural surroundings.”
Please enjoy this desert dome retreat below.
