Tragically, Derek lost his mother when he was 18 years old. He got around $40,000 from her life insurance and was able to use that money to purchase his $26,000 home on wheels. Now he feels like his home is an extension of her. Derek immediately painted his home a variety of bold, wonderful colors and changes the paint and styles up frequently.

Just recently, he invited two roommates to move in with him and his dog and cat. Compared to the high cost of living in his former Portland apartment, spending just around $200 per month for his home ad utilities is pretty amazing! What do you think?

The 34′ Casa Mia shines with its two-bedroom loft that allows for full walking headroom, making it much more like a second floor. You climb the staircase from the kitchen and first enter the smaller bedroom, which has a full wall of separation from the following room that can fit a king bed.

Another great feature is the mudroom hallway, which offers a spot to kick off your shoes and hang up coats that are separate from the living room and kitchen. Plus, there’s a spacious bathroom with a large walk-in shower, leaving very little to be desired! What’s your favorite part of this design?

In 2018, Nicole and Jamie began building their DIY tiny house to own a home in the high-cost-of-living state of Massachusetts. It took them about 2 years and $30,000 to complete the build, and they have been loving living there ever since.

The home features shou sugi ban siding and an adorable arched doorway that steps down into the house. Inside, there is a cozy living space and an incredible pull-out staircase up to their bedroom. The entire loft bedroom is actually an inset mattress, so they crawl right into bed. What do you think of this design?

This is one of the latest custom builds by Tiny Heirloom. It didn’t have a name so I dubbed it “Green Bean” based on the lovely green board and batten on the exterior. Combined with a pop of cedar in the middle, it looks like it’d be perfectly at home on a woodland lot.

The interior boasts the ever-popular white shiplap walls coupled with honey-toned wood floors and countertops. The bedrooms are both lofts with built-in storage, and a galley kitchen with a flip-up counter extension looks like the perfect spot to prepare a meal. What do you think?

Pretty sure we’ve never seen this many coffee-making apparatuses in a tiny home before, but for this coffee-loving couple and their two kids, it’s a must! They run a family-owned coffee distribution/pop-up cart so of course, they need a spot to try out all the varieties.

Below, we have a video tour of the family’s DIY tiny house on wheels, but that’s not their only compact home! They also have a van conversion and sailboat that they rotate in and out of depending on the season and where their coffee business leads them. What a cool life!

Modern Tiny Living’s latest client didn’t want anything “normal” about her home design. She asked for bold colors and she got it! The exterior is a bright blue with lime green trim, and inside a blend of rocket red with black accents gives it a little rock ‘n’ roll feel.

But it’s not just snazzy, it’s super practical! There’s a ground-floor bedroom, closets, lots of overhead storage, two lofts (one micro, one for guests), and a compact bathroom. The galley kitchen has lots of counter space and a convection oven and cook top. Nothing boring over here! What do you like the most?
