Today you are in for a huge treat: This Open Concept Modern Tiny House with an Elevator Bed. The home, designed and built in Alaska by Ana White, would be amazing simply because of the $500 DIY elevator bed she created which solves the “loft problem” — but it gets better! The house is packed full of DIY, multi-purpose furniture pieces that often do two, three — even four — different things. There’s even a hidden washer/dryer combo unit!
If you are building your own tiny house it’s well worth the time to watch the video below to learn from Anna’s brilliance. Because of her rural Alaskan location, most things were built from items you can find at the hardware store. This might be the most creative tiny house we’ve shown you to date! Plus, you can get the free plans for the storage/chair cubes shown in the video, links are at the bottom of this article.

Phil Ross, with the help of the Local Lake County Seasoned Freelancers, designed and built this one-of-a-kind “functional art” tiny house on wheels that offers 360-degree views of the outside with the clever placement of windows all around the tiny home.
But what really makes this unique is there’s an electric bed lift and an elevator to the loft bedroom! While we’ve seen elevator beds before, I don’t think we’ve ever seen an elevator *to* a loft. Would that feature make you rethink a tiny house with a loft bedroom?

Tru Form Tiny just completed this incredible three-bedroom tiny house for a family of four, and it’s a gorgeous blend of eclectic and modern that makes it truly one of a kind. And the luxury finishes throughout — from the basin sink to the accent wall to the custom cabinetry throughout — make it feel like a piece of artwork.
The house has three entirely separate bathrooms — two loft bedrooms with doors, and a first-floor bedroom that houses the elevator bed. It lifts up during the daytime, so the couple can work from home in the space. And to make it eco-friendly, the walls have wool insulation, the floors are sustainably sourced, and the appliances are extra efficient.

Kyle and Stephanie first got into vanlife to escape the city. It was more of a weekend van that they built out on the fly. But that experience equipped them to create this amazing second rig, which they worked on tirelessly for 8 months. Kyle’s previous work in sculpture prepared him to make some of the most gorgeous DIY cabinets we’ve seen!
They store all their gear on the back of the van with lockers and racks because they chose to use the “garage” space as a dinette. Their DIY elevator bed system makes getting ready for bedtime easy. In the bathroom, you’ll find a shower and composting toilet, and they have more counterspace than nearly any van we’ve featured. Enjoy the tour!

This beautiful 28-foot tiny house was built in 2018 and is for sale by the owner! It includes a super cool elevator bed over the living room area, so you don’t have to climb a ladder if you aren’t up for it. That said, there is an 8-foot loft if you need it for more sleeping or storage.
A bump out on the side of the trailer has a large desk/table, so you can set up a permanent office space. There’s a 3/4 bathroom at the end of the THOW, as well as a galley kitchen with everything but an oven. You can purchase it for $75K in Eatonville, Washington.

Apollo created this incredible Overlander in just 36 days! He worked on it in the two-car garage of the 3000+ square foot home he was renting and now has the freedom to move around since he’s never been one to stay in one place for long. He put about $105K into the build and actually just purchased a larger Overlander which he plans to convert soon.
In order to give him the most space during the day, he decided to build in an elevator bed. Underneath the bed, he has a tool chest “dresser” and a desk with two monitors to allow him to work from home. He has a great solar system and one burner in his kitchen to cook meals. Enjoy the tour!

A sleek wet bath with a funky, specially designed sink sits underneath the loft bedroom that enjoys skylight views of the stars.
