Alan Reid has designed a 8×12 tiny house as part of our 2015 8×12 tiny house design contest. He calls this design The Lookout.

The total height of this tiny house without foundation is 13 ft. Alan said with some height modifications this could be built on a trailer but as pictured below it’s on a foundation.

He has spent some time creating these beautiful pictures below of the exterior and interior of his design.

In his design there is a desk area, kitchen and bathroom on the bottom level and a sleeping loft above.

Enjoy the pictures below of 8×12 The Lookout Tiny House Design.

Tiny-House-Expedition-007

Inspiring, empowering and uplifting are not even words that can describe Alexis and Christian’s Tiny House Expedition.

The awesome duo are building a tiny house on wheels. But they are not doing it on their own.

With local community roundtable discussions and group builds they are empowering those around them to get involved in the tiny house movement.

They hold community build days where people can come out and see the tiny house being built and contribute if they like.

The community roundtable discussions in their local area are geared to spread awareness about tiny houses and the innovative housing opportunity for everyone.

Once the tiny house is complete Alexis and Christian will be heading out on a journey around the U.S to show off their tiny house and let thousands of people see it and tour it. All while documenting other tiny houses and tiny house communities they encounter along the way.

“The purpose: document tiny house community building projects across the nation and tell the story of how each came into being, the people behind them & how they are making a difference in their communities.” – Tiny House Expedition

Heart-of-it-All-House-008

I’ve been finding many people who are living and building the tiny house dream.

And I’m excited to introduce you to Trevor and Mary of Heart of It All House. They are building a 28 ft tiny house on wheels.

Their journey began 4 months ago when they visited Joe of Tennessee Tiny Homes to pick up their 28 ft trailer and haul it back home to Dayton, Ohio.

They are using building plans from Tiny House Build to construct their hOMe.

“I’ve been waiting for this day for nearly 5 years. The day we would begin to build & frame our first Tiny House.” – Trevor, Heart of It All House

So does that mean there will be more tiny houses in their future?

The tiny house is not done yet but we can continue to follow the progress on their website and Instagram.
