This Charme model by Minimaliste was displayed this weekend at the Tiny Home Show in Ottawa! The 360 square foot home has three bedrooms — two lofts and one first-floor bedroom, private from the rest of the house.

The interior is a creamy white, with dark wood accents that make it feel modern yet inviting. The galley kitchen has all the necessary appliances (even a drawer dishwasher!), and there’s enough space in the living room for a proper couch. What I love most about this design is how much storage it includes! What do you like most about this home?

You might remember the tiny house community that Canadian millionaire Marcel LeBrun was building in Fredericton, New Brunswick. Well, he just placed house #96, meaning they’ve built a house every week since the project started two years ago! Impressive.

While there is still plenty to do, like landscaping and building some of the community structures, it’s a great start to helping the unhoused community in his area. He has been getting requests from folks across the globe on how they can replicate this kind of village! What do you think?

The least expensive way to go tiny is still building your own home — but if you’ve never used power tools, or have limited experience, the idea of creating an entire house is daunting! Tiny Home Builders offers frequent DIY workshops, and their next one is June 1 and 2 in Asheville, TN.

The two-day program runs from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and you’ll get experience using tools. The cost is $399.00, and you’ll need to factor in your own lodging for Saturday night.

Jono is a professional builder, but he said that building his tiny house for his wife Eva and their son was more complicated than traditional building! Even if it was a challenge, the result of his DIY project looks professional and works perfectly for this family of three.

Their house design is super cool, with a spacious wet bathroom, a loft bedroom with a specially designed crib attachment, and a hang-out loft. The U-shaped kitchen is particularly impressive, as it fits full-sized appliances and even a drawer dishwasher. Their living space extends outdoors on their large porch with a special covered corner. What do you love about this?
