Carmen and Bill downsized from a 5,000-square-foot home to this 400-square-foot custom tiny house on wheels for retirement. The design includes two bathrooms, a mudroom, an expansive kitchen with a half dishwasher, and distinctive arched architectural features throughout. Underneath the standing-height loft bedroom is what they call the “basement”—a space configured as an indoor gym. [...]

The eOne is ESCAPE’s all-electric flagship, and this build showed the configuration that makes it feel less like a tiny house and more like a small two-story home: twin lofts connected by a catwalk. Most THOWs give you one loft you crawl into. Running a walkway between two of them turns the upper level into [...]

Alaska wanted to live a beautiful—and free—life. Tiny living eliminated her biggest expense—housing—allowing her to live debt-free and enjoy the things she really cared about.

This 2019 Ford Transit has a charming and cozy home-like feel. Honey-colored floors and upper cabinets contrast beautifully with the mint green lower cabinets. There’s a unique bathroom at the back of the van, with an indoor shower, sink, and toilet (you use a shower curtain to keep water off the bed). Under the queen-sized [...]

Here’s a great 20′ tiny home that puts a unique twist on a loft. It features a half loft — on the bottom half is the bedroom, and on the top is the living room with plenty of standing room. This means no climbing downstairs in the middle of the night to the bathroom (which [...]

This awesome Dutch family is exploring the world in a retired firetruck that they turned into an incredible off-grid, off-roading overlander!

The eVista is ESCAPE’s compact all-electric model, and its defining feature is what it leaves out: there is no loft. Everything happens on one floor, with a built-in bed area backed by generous upper storage, a compact kitchen, and a bathroom that’s larger than the footprint would suggest. This particular unit was loaded well past [...]

Jack and Jon were staring down more than $100,000 in student loan debt when they decided that a conventional mortgage wasn’t the answer — so they had a 30-foot gooseneck tiny house professionally built instead, nicknamed it the “Wee Hive,” and parked it at the Acony Bell Tiny Home Community in North Carolina. At roughly [...]

While I’m partial to wood-built “yurts,” the traditional Mongolian home was a tent that could be easily moved. The yurt below looks very similar to those original yurts, and the off-grid vacation spot will make you feel like you’re stepping back in time.
