Kirk and Deb were looking for a cabin in the Arizona mountains when they came across the Luxtiny tiny house community. The open house convinced them that one of their tiny homes would be the perfect fit for their needs, and as Kirk says, the home hardly seems tiny! They have a generous great room, a full bathroom, and a bedroom on the main floor with a washer/dryer and a large closet.
As a woodworker and artist, Kirk has added many of his own special details to the house, including a stunning resin/epoxy coffee table and his own Game-of-Thrones-Inspired log throne on their spacious porch. After living at the community for a couple years, Deb and Kirk purchased another tiny house, so they have a place for friends and family to stay when visiting. How fun!

Remember the Community First Village we told you about? Well now we want to tell you about The Field’s Edge, founded by a group of people who interned at Community First for four months so that they could replicate the awesome community-based system in Midland, Texas.
This group has been raising funding while finding RVs to house some of their homeless neighbors. They now have the property for their village and everything is coming together!
Construction began on Phase I in March 2021. Phase I includes the Mabee Foundation Community Center which houses The Field’s Edge offices, a behavioral and physical healthcare clinic space, a market, and a multipurpose great room. Also included in Phase I is the first “pod” of homes which includes 9 single-occupant tiny homes for the chronically homeless, one missional home, and a commercial bath, kitchen, and laundry facility that we lovingly call the Bathhouse. Construction of Phase I will be completed in June 2022.
The Village sits on 23.5 acres inside of the city limits of southwestern Midland and will eventually have 10 “pods” of homes, 90 homes for the chronically homeless, and 10 homes for missional residents who voluntarily live on site to help cultivate community.
This is so great! Could your community use a village like this?

Today we’re excited to introduce the beautiful Eclipse Cottages — low-maintenance small homes built with SIP panels and packed with sustainable features like rainwater catchment and filtration, greywater reuse, and more. Each cottage offers a handful of layout options plus plenty of room to customize colors and finishes.
For now, these cottages are placed in one of Eclipse’s three tiny house villages in South Carolina, with plans to eventually build and ship them to the general public.
Did we say tiny house village? Yes! You can learn more about two communities currently taking residents — Palmetto Grove and Creek Walk — plus a third, Mountain Grove, still in production. Tell us what you think in the comments!

M was one of the first 5 long-term tiny homes that rolled into Acony Bell Tiny Home Community in North Carolina. Her lot abuts two winding creeks on the 56 acres in the community and features not only her professionally-built THOW but her pottery studio as well.
She’s a professional artist and sells her pottery and teaches classes onsite. The walls of her THOW are covered in meaningful art she’s purchased, been given, or created herself. She chose a design without a loft and has no regrets on that front.

Brandy retired just before 2020, and the pandemic set her on a new path to tiny living. She now lives in a 399-square-foot park model in a tiny house community in Texas, where she turned the downstairs bedroom into a dedicated crafting room and sleeps in the loft. She grows food in the community gardens, cooks for her neighbors, and is refreshingly honest about the challenges of downsizing.

Homelessness is a problem in every city in the country, and many times when we see tiny homes we think, “We need more of these for the homeless!” Community First! Village in Austin, Texas took that idea and brought it to life, with 51 acres of property with more than 500 homes for the chronically homeless.
But they’ve gone beyond just building houses — they’ve built a community. Residents find family and friends at the village, as well as work on the premises. There’s an art house, automotive shop, forge, organic garden and so much more designed to give the neighbors at the community purpose. The FAQ page answers tons of questions about the village here.
One of the ways they get revenue for the park is through some tiny house rentals where anyone can stay during a visit to Austin! Check that out here.
