The DEJESSI is a tiny house built by French builder Tiny House Tarentaise. The standout feature is a “living wall” bathroom—the entire space is lined with green plants, creating the sensation of showering outdoors in a jungle setting.
Beyond the botanical bathroom, this layout features a ground-floor bedroom with two skylights and a large closet for storage. A deck off the front extends the living space outdoors, while inside a well-equipped kitchen with backlit backsplash showcases the home’s sleek, modern aesthetic.

Very nice kitchen. Where is the inside sitting area ( for bad weather ) ????
There isn’t one for this design, interior is not big enough with all the space dedicated to the other areas and no loft to help reduce the footprint size to fit it all. But the owner probably intended it only as a vacation or weekend getaway home…
A few too many plants for me, though it would be a great vacation spot. And a roof over the deck would help make it accessible in foul weather — but if it were me, I’d simply enclose the deck, too, and have an all-weather home! Fabulous kitchen!
Hmmm. . .pretty home for sure, and the backlit backsplash in the nice kitchen is cool. I like the bathroom, too, with all its plants, but I’m with Nancy. . .not sure about having the living space out under the skys. Maybe this is a cold area so you don’t have to worry about the sun being too hot (or insects biting), or maybe it’s in a dessert place so you don’t have to worry about rain. A screened in porch for sitting would be nice. Otherwise, it’s really lovely.
I do agree on that point, Marsha. Where I am in New England, the living space outdoors would be useless for most of the year!
Love it!!!
I’ve never seen a bathroom wall completely covered in plants like this one before. It is like a jungle. I’m not sure if I would want that in my bathroom simply because it makes the bathroom seem smaller. But I love all the plants & love the tiny house.
There doesn’t seem to be a big enough living space in this tiny though. That would keep me from wanting to own one like this one. I do love the outdoor living space but there needs to be a living space inside too. I did see a small place where you enter but its really not big enough for much at all.
But overall this is a pretty tiny & very unusual bathroom. Pretty cool
Nice, but you can keep the plant wall.
