This tiny house on wheels in Japan is designed and built by Tree Heads & Co. to be used as a mobile shop that sells coffee, soft drinks, and snacks.
It’s situated near a bus stop so people getting off can enjoy coffee, drinks, and snacks while enjoying wonderful mountain views.
The shingle siding is made from cypress. And the little cabin on wheels has a living green roof which will soon have flowers. It’s called the Green Roof Tiny Shop.

Ethan has recently finished the long process of designing and building his own DIY tiny house on wheels in Vermont.
And it has a lot of unique features like a secret cat door, track door to bathroom, large useful kitchen with double sink, and lots more.
He’s really done an incredible job of creating a tiny home that fits his needs perfectly. And now he’s excited to share it with you and me along with how he did it.

Had to show you this amazing micro home called Tiny House Japan.
It’s obviously a Japanese inspired and designed little shelter on wheels.
This mobile micro cabin was designed and built by Tagami Haruhiko and is meant for use as a tiny camping trailer able to be towed by a small vehicle.
Another cool feature which you’ll get to see more of below is that the structure can be separated from the trailer chassis so you can leave it parked on camp, at the garden, etc. while getting to use the trailer for something else if you wanted.
And did I mention that it has a pop up roof feature? You’ll actually be able to watch a video of it in action below.
I encourage you to enjoy, comment about it below, and re-share if you want.

I think you will enjoy this custom built tiny house on wheels by Tiny Diamond Homes.
It’s built on an 18 foot double axle trailer so you can move it around just like a travel trailer.
The tiny home is equipped with a full kitchen, bathroom and sleeping loft for two.
And it’s nicely decorated too. Let’s take a look inside.

This tiny house on wheels construction demonstrates how quickly framing can progress with proper planning and experience. Starting from a bare trailer, the builder completed wall framing in just four days, incorporating design improvements from a previous build. The rapid progress shows what dedicated DIY builders can accomplish.

Dawn and Scott Hines of North Carolina were looking for a certain kind of tiny house: something portable, cozy, a temporary home away from home. They bought tiny house building plans, but needed to make some adjustments in order for them to work.
But with no construction or architectural experience between them, what was to be done? They started with Tumbleweed Tiny Houses Weebee plans and attended one of their building seminars. They found the rest of their answers in Chuck Peterson of C&E Construction. He helped them build their tiny house on wheels, using the building plans as a guide, changing parts of it and inserting certain things to make it their own.
In their finished house, there’s a main floor and a loft, a kitchen and a bathroom and a living room. With the help of their contractor, Chuck, they raised the ceiling a little, upgraded the shower, and chose a composting toilet. Since they use their house primarily in Illinois each year, they also made sure the house plans were adapted to keep them warm in below freezing weather.
Is it perfect? No, not quite. There are few parts of their design they would change if they were to do it again – adding a light switch in the loft, moving an electrical box around – but overall the tiny house is exactly what they wanted. It’s a hideaway on wheels, a retreat on the go, and a perfect spot to cozy up and get away from it all.
What makes the Hines story unique? They took building a tiny house a step further. When Chuck went to work sawing and nailing, they turned on their video camera and kept up with his progress. A year after their house’s completion, they have a finished DVD for sale detailing every step of the construction process. In the video, we follow Chuck around as he measures and plans, narrating to the camera what he is doing and how each step is unique to building a small scale house.
