You are looking at the POD-iDladla micro house. It’s a prefab POD concept designed to be cheap to build, easy to ship, and easy to set up.
This tiny home is designed by South African architect Clara da Cruz Almeida while the interior is designed by Dokter and Misses. The home offers just 185 sq. ft. of space inside or 221 sq. ft. if you include the outdoor deck. When you go inside you’ll notice the kitchen and upstairs sleeping loft right away. The high ceilings help make the loft space more roomy than most other tiny homes featured here.
Since it’s a flat pack prefab design, you can easily ship it anywhere (kind of like IKEA furniture). The designer even included the possibility of moving in mind. So essentially you can flat pack it and take it with you to another plot of land if need be. Sounds crazy, doesn’t it? What are your thoughts? Crazy or cool? Please enjoy and re-share below. Thank you!

This is a modern prefab tiny home that can grow in design according to your needs.
The basic home (called the 2 PLUS Classic) is a one-bedroom, 465 square foot model, available in a choice of 2 floor plans and a number of options and finishes.
It’s great as a vacation getaway for a single person or couple. But if you wanted to it can even be your primary residence, if you enjoy the tiny house lifestyle!
There are many nooks and crannies allowing for built-in storage and more spaciousness. A feature that I find unique is that the deck can be closed to provide a secure closure for the patio doors, during times when the home is unoccupied.
This cute and cozy tiny house was designed by architect Marek Štěpán and built by Freedomky in the Czech Republic. You may choose other styles and sizes, using the same basic design. See their website for more information on these options.

This Prefab ZeroHouse is a guest post by Pamela Putnam
Introducing zeroHouse, a small, prefabricated building that can easily be shipped and quickly erected. It is completely self-sufficient and incredibly comfortable. Most notably you can live here without having any external utilities connected or even waste disposal connections! It’s fully self sufficient. Let’s go on a tour…
Enter zeroHouse through the front entry, which is a Kevlar reinforced door shell with vacuum-sealed aerogel insulating core. You will see the living room to your right, furnished with a modular wraparound couch, 42″ LCD TV, and ample built-in storage. To your left is the kitchen, equipped with a full array of high-efficiency appliances, including an induction cooktop, microwave oven, and full-size refrigerator. The dining area includes a restaurant-style booth, and comfortably seats four adults.
Climb the stairs located in the entry to the second floor, where you will find two bedrooms, each furnished with a king-size bed, window seat, and large closet. The full bathroom, which features a large shower, full vanity, and a porcelain low-flush toilet, opens onto its own private sun-deck with outdoor shower and lounge chairs. A covered deck off the upstairs entry provides the perfect rooftop area for outdoor living.

This prefab modern house called the M2. It has two bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms within 1240 sq. ft. of interior space that’s inside so it’s definitely not tiny and- to me- not even small.
But I still think it’s worth looking at and I think you might enjoy it too. And since it’s prefab you might be able to order just one wing which would be somewhere around 500 sq. ft. Later, if you needed or wanted to, you can add on. You can see what I mean in the video below where you can see it being set up. The living and dining areas are on one side and the bedrooms are on the other. The enclosed glass bridge connects them together. It’s an interesting layout isn’t it? How would you change this to make it maybe smaller and most importantly better for your own needs?

Garrison Architects created this prefabricated modular stackable tiny housing concept for the purpose of emergency/disaster housing. At a first glance, they look like shipping containers, but they’re not.
Inside each unit has a kitchen, living area, dining area, bathroom, plenty of storage, and 1-3 bedrooms depending on the design. They also offer ventilation to help reduce air conditioning costs.
As much recycled materials as possible are also used to create these units. In addition, no formaldehyde is contained in the wood used. And they’re also aiming to make the units self-sufficient.

This viVood prefab tiny house assembles in one day. And one great part about it is that you don’t need to lay a foundation prior to assembling on your site.
So if you were ever to move it, or remove it from your land, it would leave that area as it was before. Right now there are a handful of these units at Marjal Costa Blanca resort in Spain.
Since they are prefabricated they’re relatively easy to assemble and you can ship several units on one truck in case you wanted or needed to. You can see how they’re built and assembled in the photos and video down below.
