Murphy beds are such an awesome way to save space in a tiny house and not need a loft bedroom! You don’t have to make a bed every day (just fold it away!) but there are no ladders or stairs needed. This Baja Surf Shack makes use of the Murphy bed, as well as a “Murphy deck” that unfolds when you arrive at your destination.

There’s also a kitchen and bathroom in the set-up, and a “flex loft” which you can use for storage (or guests) if you would like. It’s for sale over at Tiny House Marketplace for $90,000.

This is a 2020 Ram ProMaster City Van Conversion by Voyager Conversions. It’s the Weekender Camper model.

This conversion is like a cross between car camping and van life. The interior layout is different than their Outback Model. What do you think? Would you consider one of these?

Here’s another example of an awesome couple who found themselves trapped in the 9 to 5 grind and wanted something more — and so they jumped on the skoolie bandwagon, cultivated remote work opportunities, and have been bus living since September 2019.

Shelby says bus life has significantly improved her mental health, which is so important in general, and especially during the challenging times that have been the last year.

The bus interior is sleek and modern, which is just what they wanted to keep a minimalistic feel. We got to interview Shelby, so be sure to read the Q&A at the end of the post (and follow them on Instagram here).

The highest-paying jobs are typically in the city, but so is the highest rent. For these four friends who wanted to enjoy life in San Francisco, that meant getting creative with their house arrangement! They started by renovating a stealth shuttle bus, which they later upgraded, and then they added a box truck to the mix.

These homes-in-disguise allowed them to park around the city for nearly three years! Unfortunately COVID made it tricky to keep living in their bathroom-less houses, so they’ve been temporarily renting the vehicles out to adventurers while “house-living.” But hey, it’s a great way to make a little side cash!

The murals on the ceilings of both homes are breathtaking — be sure to check out all the details in the video with Tiny House Giant Journey below.

Meet Jude! This wonderful woman is living in her truck home and using her golden years to travel the gorgeous country of New Zealand (we’re all jealous!). She has a YouTube channel where she shares all the cool places she goes and what it’s like to live tiny.

Her home features a giant picture window where she can sit and read, but that transforms into a single guest bed with a pulley bed! She also has a double bed which she sleeps on that pulls out from the couch. She takes a couple of steps up to her kitchen area complete with an awesome pull-out pantry, and her 3/4 bathroom is at the back of the home.

Enjoy her video tour at the end of the post!

Pierre and Lea live with their young daughter in a stunning off-grid tiny house perched in the Swiss Alps. It features a giant family-sized bed (no loft!) with amazing under-bed clothing storage drawers, a Montessori-inspired children’s space, and a bathroom with a stunning stone shower.

The home is heated with a large wood-burning stove, and solar panels provide electricity. They have some really clever storage/tiny house hacks including a folding stool that comes out of the cabinets in the kitchen, and embroidery hoops to provide shade/privacy through the circular windows.

Enjoy the lovely tour with Alternative House posted below, and follow the family on Instagram here.

This has to be one of the most ornate van conversions I’ve ever seen, with lovely carved woodwork that gives it a mythical forest feel.

There’s a three-seater couch that folds into the main bed, an itty bitty kitchen with a propane cooktop, and even a stow-away toilet that doubles as a seat when not “in use.”

You’ll find plenty of built-in and under-bed storage in this campervan, which is for sale in the UK for 12,000 GBP (or ~ $15,800). You can contact the seller via QuirkyCamper here.

The Braxton tiny house by Modern Tiny Living is an upgraded version of their Koko2 model. This sleek tiny home features the signature “social area” in the front, where you’ll find a multi-purpose living room (with oodles of storage) that turns into a second bed to sleep two.

The main bedroom is in the loft, accessible via a storage staircase with an appropriate handrail. In the kitchen you’ll find a cooktop, convection oven, washer/dryer combo, fridge and lovely farmhouse sink.

There’s simply not much to dislike about this THOW! The gorgeous black and white finishes give it such an upscale look — pricing depends on final finishes, so you can contact Modern Tiny Living for a quote here.

Ryan lived in a 2,200 square foot home with some 20 years of piled-up possessions, when he decided that was silly and sold almost all he had to live in his renovated bus, now named Beverly.

He’s a carpenter and lives in a stationary spot in Northern California, in his breathtaking bus with the most amazing shower you’ve ever seen! It’s about the size of a standard shower stall, but it has a skylight, plexiglass window with outdoor views, and a rainfall shower head. Wow!

Ryan also prioritized a functional kitchen since he enjoys cooking, and between his propane cooktop and air fryer, he can cook or bake just about anything (for one). You can follow him on Instagram here, but be sure to watch Tiny Home Tours video tour of his rig at the end of the post.
