Sophia and Forest began their tiny house build at a tiny house workshop they attended, where the other participants and two teachers helped them build the tiny house frame. While that process went quickly, it took the couple another year to complete the inside of the build on their own.

And wow! What a great job they did. They spent about $45,000 on the gooseneck tiny house, disclosing that they had help from parents and grandparents to fund the project. Toward the completion of the build they were concerned about finding a parking spot and asked on Facebook, and ended up with a lovely wooded spot where they trade some labor and $400/month for their amazing home base.

This Japanese-inspired tiny house on wheels was custom-built for a Baluchon client who needs a home to travel with him for work around the United Kingdom. He loves Japanese architecture and the Bonzai Tiny House reflects that with a curved roof, red and black accents, and a screen door.

The home is just under 15 feet long to make it lightweight and easy to tow for travel. Even with that short height, the home has no loft, but rather a pull-out bed mat that lies on top of the living room floor at night. The kitchen is elevated to allow for lots of drawer storage underneath, and the wet bathroom is open to the rest of the home to keep the space from feeling claustrophobic.
