Reset A− A+ If you like the idea of tiny living but still want to live simply in a bit of a larger space you might like this modern 914 sq. ft. small home custom designed for a client by JRKVC, a Slovakian Architecture Firm.

It’s called the IST-Family House and has now been featured on ArchDaily and Humble Homes so I thought I’d also welcome the design to you too. Would you consider living simply in a slightly larger home like this one? I’m curious about your thoughts on ‘tiny vs small’ if you’d be willing to share in the comments below.

Tiny versus Small?

Would you consider living simply in a 914 sq. ft. small house design like this one instead of in a 100-250 sq. ft. tiny house? Just curious.. ‘Tiny’ or ‘small’ and why (if you want) in the comments below.
