This is a double-decker V House by Nelson Tiny Houses. And I think it’s my favorite tiny house project yet so I’m extremely excited to be sharing it with you.
Normally the V House offers about 240 sq. ft. of space inside. But this time Nelson has built a double V House for one of their customers making it a total of about 480 sq. ft. of space with this double-decker design/build. And it gets even better because there’s an extra 400 sq. ft. of outdoor deck space too. When you go inside the Double-Decker V House from downstairs you’ll find a kitchen, living area, washer/dryer closet, a half bathroom, and loads of windows! I think you’ll be really impressed with the rest of it too.

One of our readers, Karen Rogers, submitted photos of her 400 sq. ft. garden cottage. Karen and her husband are collectors and grandparents who love displaying antiques and their grandson’s artwork around their home.
Let’s take a look inside this cozy little garden cottage. As you walk up the steps you enter a covered porch, which is perfect for afternoon tea time. Once inside, you are in the living room that has all kinds of collectibles around.
As you make your way through the living room you enter the spacious kitchen which features full size appliances. I bet there’s some great home cooking that goes on in here! The bathroom looks to be just beyond the kitchen.
Going back out of the kitchen you’ll see there is a small tucked away staircase off to the right side that looks to go up to a sleeping loft. Please enjoy and re-share below. Thank you!

Here is a guest post by Ricardo Villanueva on building tips for a vargo wagon.
For me, a vardo is a Romani inspired tiny house that’s built to travel. This means a vardo has more limitations in space, weight, and balance than a tiny house that will only be moved on occasion. If you are thinking about building your own vardo, here are a few suggestions that might help.
1. Before you build anything. Build the whole thing (in detail) in your head or on paper. This will save grief over routes for wiring, plumbing, and gas lines. Yes, the plan will change, but you will know how changes in one place will affect your design elsewhere.
2. Make guides for your circular saw. For example, you can cut up to 8 foot lengths of mdf (medium density fiber board) say a foot wide. Cut this strip using the straight (manufactured) edge as a guide. Then glue these strips together so that your saw tracks along the upper edge. This will produce a straight edge on the strip you have glued. This makes cutting large sheets of plywood or paneling fairly easy.

Students at a Pflugerville, TX high school built this 144 square feet tiny home during the 2014/15 school year in a class combining both traditional Geometry and a construction class.
The home includes an open living room with a sleeping loft over the kitchen and bathroom area. There is also a small loft located over the covered porch. The kitchen includes a stainless steel sink, a match light 2 burner propane cook top, a mini-refrigerator, two GFCI outlets and a dedicated 20 amp circuit for a microwave. The bathroom includes a full size shower and toilet. Hot water is provided by a Rinnai instant heater. Interior trim is knotty pine sealed with clear “Deft” which brings out the grain in the wood. The exterior is cedar lap siding stained on both sides. Exterior trim is cedar as well.
The roof is a 26 gauge steel standing seam roof–leftover materials from a commercial office building which were donated to the school. The home was built using modified Tiny Tumbleweed Homes “Elm” plans. The students in the class used terms and formulas from the Geometry class almost every day during the school year and they built a truly outstanding tiny home.
