So here’s a tiny house you might have a dream about tonight. It’s from a builder called Molecule Tiny Homes. The most notable feature is the porch which flips up and down. I like this feature because wherever you might land, you can easily extend your outdoor space without having to actually build a deck [...]

This post is for you if you’re interested in how the construction of a tiny house on a trailer works. It’s a time lapse video based on pictures taken during the building process of Joanna’s tiny house on wheels.

You probably have never heard of the Mulfinger tiny house before. It’s one of Jay Shafer’s old Tumbleweed tiny house designs, but it’s no longer available. The design is simple and elegant, like all of Jay’s work. You are greeted with a porch and everything is perfectly symmetrical. Since this home is not on a [...]

I hope you’re looking for something unusual today because this tiny house isn’t normal. And with this unique shelter comes an interesting story.
