It is very obvious that a lot of thought went into this model! Except for a few exceptions, it is really close to perfect! Feels spacious and homey even though it’s tiny! I do love how they used the eating bar to create additional counter space. For me personally, there are 4 changes I would want in thinking of this as a permanent residence even though this may be meant as a rental. One of my biggest complaints about some tiny homes is the size of the built-in sofa. They are rarely deep enough to really curl up on and get cozy on a cold day or use as an extra sleeping spot. I understand the desire to save space in a tiny space but if someone is meant to be comfortable, the sofa must be deeper and the cushion has to be thicker. I’m not a fan of the open shelves. They are attractive, for sure, but we all know that it takes a lot of effort to keep all our kitchen stuff organized enough for public viewing. Closed cupboards hide a multitude of organizational sins! As an older person, that first floor bed is a blessing but it is way too tall to get in and out of easily. Again, I understand the idea of adding storage. Perhaps the loft over the kitchen can be used as storage but not for every day stuff so another creative solution would have to be found. Please install a flush toilet. Enough said about that subject…;-). I like convection ovens but the one shown is way too small. I’d want one you can cook a bigger variety of things in…in other words, bigger. And I’d rather not have to look at the wiring under the counter for that oven. Maybe it could either be hidden more effectively or moved further toward the back. Sorry but I’m adding another. I can’t see a good place to put a TV. Can’t live without that! 😉 Most of these are minor tweaks and specifically from my own personal preferences so I acknowledge that someone out there will be completely and utterly in love with this tiny just as it is. I’d be very happy for them. Overall, this is a fabulous tiny home so congratulations to the designers.
I agree with Donna Rae on what she said. My complaint on nearly all tiny homes with main floor bedrooms is there is never any space to walk around them to make the up without crawling over the bed which isn’t very easy for elderly people. Builders need to take this into account when designing their homes especially with ground floor bedrooms.
Well,being that this is a custom builder, that actually would have to be something the client has to consider because custom builders just build what their client’s hire them to build. They may work within certain limitations like a specific size/model for the layout to fit in and may only give their clients a certain range of options but being a custom build means it’s the client/owner who ultimately decides on the layout and details of the build.
Problem is there is always trade offs, every design choice will effect something else, and that means dealing with compromises. So, depends on the client’s/owner’s preferences and priorities versus what trade offs and compromises they are willing to accept from those they won’t…
For example, the sleeping area may get less priority than say the kitchen and living area. So people may compromise on the bed because they won’t compromise on something else like ensuring there’s enough counter top space, etc.
Of course, you can just go bigger but that adds costs and complexities as examples of the many possible trade offs every choice may effect and why such design choices are made…
I’m sorry, but its a No from me, that cooktop is toooo small. Total fail for me… I gotta have at least 2 elements for it to work for me. And yes, I know, its for somebody else. James need not reply… 😉
Um, it is 2 elements…
Damn, I saw the first pic and the way the lighting was set up it looked like a single element. I stand corrected by no less than the inimitable James D. Off to the optician tomorrow to realign my eyes or summat. 🙄
