I wanted to show you these modern micro shelters built out of Sydney, Australia.
They can be used in combination to create a community of micro homes.
Or they can be creatively used to create your own tiny housing compound.
In this situation you might have 1-3 structures total to make up your home.
For example you can use one for living and sleeping, another for working and a third for bathing.

I think you will absolutely love this small guest cottage.
Perfect size for out-of-town guests visiting for a while.
The bright white walls and windows make this small space seem huge!
Alisha and her husband, Graham of Fairfax, CA decided it was time to renovate their studio cottage.
This 320 sq ft guest cottage has a vintage California laid back charm to it. Their friends often ask when they can move in.
Alisha says her biggest challenge with the renovation was convincing her husband to let her paint everything white.
I think they made a great choice because this guest cottage is super cute!

I’ve pulled together the top 18 tiny house kitchens for you to enjoy.
It’s always a challenge to design the right kitchen, especially if you plan on using it a lot.

And I’m curious… which one is your favorite? (Let us know in the comments.)

To have a park model tiny house / log cabin on your own land somewhere does sound pretty awesome.
This particular model is only available in Idaho, Montana, Northern California, Oregon, Washington, Alberta, and British Columbia.
Check out the Pacific Lodge built and manufactured by Palm Harbor Homes.
It is a 386 square feet wooden cabin with one bedroom/one bath and a sleeping loft.
The dimensions are: 34 x 11’2. It’s classified as a park model home.
Maybe some of us should consider designing and building our tiny houses to park model specs if we want more space and a downstairs bedroom?
