Budd the Bus is the home-on-wheels for Ethan, a nomad who wanted to have his own place, without spending so much money on Colorado rent. He had already downsized to a studio apartment, so the bus gave him much more freedom without sacrificing much space.
His bus features an adorable wood-burning stove, a super-compact bathroom, a fold-down desk, and more! Enjoy the pictures and Ethan’s story below.

Nikki’s bus is proof that maximalists can live tiny! An artist and web designer, Nikki knew what she wanted in a home, and she made it happen. There’s a desk for her web design, a large counter-top studio for her art, and most incredibly, a full-sized soaking tub in the middle of the bus with a 200-gallon water tank and on-demand hot water tank.
She also snuck in a side-by-side fridge & freezer, a massive farmhouse sink, and a washer/dryer unit. On the back of the bus, she has a spacious deck that houses her generator and more exterior storage. What more could you want?

Carmen and Bill downsized from a 5,000-square-foot home to this 400-square-foot custom tiny house on wheels for retirement. The design includes two bathrooms, a mudroom, an expansive kitchen with a half dishwasher, and distinctive arched architectural features throughout. Underneath the standing-height loft bedroom is what they call the “basement”—a space configured as an indoor gym. An office area in the bedroom overlooks the arched details that define the home’s character. The tiny house is parked at one of the Incredible Properties communities in Tennessee.

The eOne is ESCAPE’s all-electric flagship, and this build showed the configuration that makes it feel less like a tiny house and more like a small two-story home: twin lofts connected by a catwalk. Most THOWs give you one loft you crawl into. Running a walkway between two of them turns the upper level into an actual floor you move around on, and it is the single biggest reason this layout lives larger than its footprint suggests.
Downstairs, the all-wood interior does a lot of work. Large windows on the main level bring in light from two directions, and the living area is deliberately unassigned: it can be a lounge, a work-from-home setup, or a ground-floor bedroom for anyone who would rather not climb at all. The kitchen carries an induction cooktop, electric oven, and a tall refrigerator with freezer, plus a combo washer/dryer tucked in nearby. Being all-electric means no propane lines, no tank swaps, and a straightforward path to running the whole house off solar later.
Editor’s note: this was Unit #626, offered new at $84,630 in early 2023, and it sold long ago. The eOne remains in production, so we’ve kept the tour up as a reference on the two-loft catwalk layout. Current listings are linked below.

Soren and his parents purchased this beautiful tiny house from Baluchon which they’re taking to a home in the Alps. He loves foxes, and chose to name their tiny house “Fox” in Danish. He has a spot on the couch-to-bed in the living room, while his parents have a queen bed in the ladder-accessible loft.
Additionally, there’s the Baluchon-signature net lounge area where Soren can read and play. Their kitchen has all the appliances, including a drawer dishwasher! In the back of the home you’ll find a little bathroom with a composting toilet and a shower stall. What do you think?

What happens when you build a tiny house on wheels that skips the loft entirely? The Kangaroo THOW answers that question with an ingenious hydraulic Murphy bed that folds down over the couch, giving you a full queen-sized sleeping area without ever climbing a ladder. Built on a triple-axle trailer at 8.5 by 28 feet, this no-loft design offers something increasingly rare in the tiny house world: high ceilings throughout and easy accessibility for everyone.
This particular Kangaroo build packs a remarkable amount of functionality into its compact footprint. From a full kitchen with apartment-sized appliances to a complete bathroom with washer-dryer combo, it demonstrates that choosing a single-level layout doesn’t mean sacrificing the amenities that make a tiny house feel like a true home.
