Most tiny houses ask you to give something up. A ladder instead of stairs. A camp-stove instead of a kitchen. A mattress wedged under a sloped ceiling instead of a real bedroom. The NOOSA, built by Australia’s two-time Tiny House Builder of the Year, LJM Tiny Homes, was designed around the opposite idea: that you should be able to live small without living like you’re camping.

Lofts have long been the default trick for squeezing a bedroom into a tiny house, but they come with a real cost: a ladder to climb every night, a low ceiling overhead, and a sleeping space that can feel more like a crawl space than a bedroom. The Eire, a striking new model from Australia’s Häuslein Tiny House Co, takes the opposite approach — and proves you can live comfortably on a single level without giving up an inch of style.

Nixie’s off-grid tiny house sits in a magical woodland setting overlooking a pond filled with lily pads and little creatures. Incredibly, her “remote” parking spot in rural Queensland is only 15 minutes from town, allowing her all the joys of nature while still having access to the conveniences of 2024. After a stint of skoolie life with a friend, Nixie realized she didn’t need all her stuff! So she decided to downsize.
She knew exactly what she wanted from a home, and that was a white, minimalist space with plenty of room for all her plants! Working with a builder, she was able to make her dreams come to life! Enjoy the tour of her sleek space below.

Cat and her daughter lived in an apartment in Brisbane, when they were told they had to leave within 8 weeks because the landlord sold the apartment. That and the rising cost of rent was the final straw that convinced Cat to get back to her roots and back out to the countryside!
After designing the perfect tiny house for the two of them, they moved the Eucalyptus-green THOW onto a friend’s gorgeous property in Queensland, Australia. It has everything the two of them need, including space for all her daughter’s toys (her daughter didn’t want to downsize them). What do you think of this lovely tiny house?

This is Germaine’s double shipping container home in Tasmania that she had built after her divorce. Her sons live in the “big house” next door, and she has this private space built over an existing carport. It’s built out of two containers set at a 90-degree angle, with a spacious covered porch in the middle where she loves to entertain.
Speaking of entertaining, Germaine requested a large kitchen with full-sized appliances and plenty of bench space so she can prepare delicious meals. Her bathroom has a walk-in shower and flushing toilet, and she has a cozy bedroom with a walk-in closet! What a fun space to live.
