Tiny Houses

I love seeing something a bit different, and the roofline on this 20′ tiny house on wheels out of Chattanooga, Tennessee fits the bill! It allows for some decent headspace in the loft, while also giving you a conversation starter. Inside it features what I think are cork floors, and they look lovely! The bookshelf [...]

Could this Ford E-350 Hightop conversion be your next home? This van was outfitted by a professional van conversion business, and designed to be lightweight and efficient. It was originally a 2006 handicap transport vehicle, but got a new life as a campervan in 2018. It has 159,000 miles on it, with new tires, a [...]

Today I want to share a review for a really neat product: the ROBA Laundry Hamper. It was designed by Nathan Housberg during his senior year at Brown University to address the needs of students using shared laundry rooms. Prototypes were so successful that he launched a Kickstarter campaign and is now selling his brilliant [...]

Jay built his THOW on a 17′ Uhaul and added some cool bump outs to maximize the space. Kenny, on the other hand, [...]

Scott & Ashley have done it again! They found an amazing tiny home, this time in Durham, NC, that you can rent on Airbnb. The amazing part of this little cottage is that it started out as a dilapidated shed! Now, the 451 square foot farmhouse is a lovely one-bedroom, one-bathroom vacation property that shows [...]

This is a slightly-used ESCAPE ONE model that came back to the ESCAPE warehouse and got a little bit of a facelift! The team replaced the exterior with metal siding that has a 30-year warranty, and also put in all new flooring throughout the home. The THOW is selling at a $9,400 discount, making it [...]

Natalie and Lucas have lived in tents as wilderness guides, rented small spaces and cabins, and even lived in a 29-foot sailboat while building their tiny house! Now they’re proud owners of their off-grid THOW, which they’ve lived in for 4 years. First they parked in Northern Wisconsin on a friend’s land, and now they [...]

There are so many options out there for living with a smaller footprint, and park models like this one give you just under 400 square feet, and the newer ones look the part! This one is set up in Broken Bow, Oklahoma as a vacation rental (what most park models were originally designed for), but [...]

Conventional design wisdom claims you can’t use dark colors in small spaces, but this tiny house built in Germany by Tiny House Manufaktur shows there’s an exception to every rule. Paired with a light, natural wood, the black cabinets, steps, and accent walls in this THOW not only work but provide a modern, luxurious aesthetic. [...]

This has to be one of the most ornate van conversions I’ve ever seen, with lovely carved woodwork that gives it a mythical forest feel. There’s a three-seater couch that folds into the main bed, an itty bitty kitchen with a propane cooktop, and even a stow-away toilet that doubles as a seat when not [...]

“I had a quiver of cuss words I hadn’t used in awhile, so I got myself a Westy.” Simon had travelled around Europe surfing with his buddies in a VW van when he was younger, and that nostalgia got him into a Vanagon restoration project for weekend travels and camping getaways. This vintage update of [...]

Crystal is a self-proclaimed introvert who prefers living on her own, so she jumped at the opportunity to put down roots in the “middle-of-nowhere” Alaska in her own dry tiny cabin. She purchased her basic shell about four years ago, and has used reclaimed, thrifted, and gifted materials to transform the place into her happy [...]

Society has a lot of opinions on what you should or shouldn’t be doing at 37, but Brynn has tossed all that aside and chased her dream of a nomadic and free lifestyle in her 2005 Sprinter van conversion. She made the unique choice in her van to close off the garage, allowing her to [...]

Check out this NOAH-certified THOW that’s for sale in Texas! The Lovey home features a loft bedroom with standing room for changing for anyone under 6 ft. 4 and not one, but 1.5 baths, which is definitely a rare feature in any tiny house.
