Normally, I don't like so much white; I'm a color person. But this home is beautiful and the decor is perfect. This couple should build and design tiny homes. Maybe a tiny for a disabled person who can't climb stairs?
You know how it is - you see the perfect idea - then you lose the darn video for the next year!! Yayyyy I found it! I want my stairs in my bathroom!! My favourite design of Tiny, although my style is a bit more eclectic. But I love it!
This home is just stunning! Congrats to Germaine for creating this wonderful abode and 'next level' of freedom and opportunity for herself in the years ahead. I found this all to be very inspiring. 🌟🙏✨
How sad that he had to work for a living. He shouldn’t have to do that if he can’t be bothered. Imagine if he actually had a real problem in life like leukaemia. So precious.
I’ve been searching for this floor plan on YT for days & finally found it! I’ve seen similar on FB shorts but it was too quick & could only find YT videos with the version where the kitchen is at the end & a sofa in the middle, which I really don’t like. I want a really cosy lounge where she has hers & love the kitchen where it is. Also love the separated toilet. I would decorate the lounge very differently & have an office where her meditation room is, but that’s all I’d change. The bedroom with proper cupboards & standing is a must. This is by far the best layout I’ve seen, after viewing probably 100 tiny homes! If I could ever find land to purchase near a town, I’m buying this!!!! 🥰😍🥰
Lovely place! I love your videos and the empathy and care with which you make them. If I could ask for one thing, it would be more diversity… the people are more often than not white, heternormative couples, and I think (hope?) the tiny house movement is more diverse… it would be so cool to see people with different backgrounds and lifestyles also shown. I loved for example that video you made of the two japanese-american women and their very unique house and lifestyle. It really stayed with me
Holy Effing Moly! Just when I think I've seen the best of the best, this lil beauty rocks up! 😍 Wow, this is pretty much perfection. The lil garden area around her home and that huge shed and driveway are stunning. I really appreciate the symmetry and precision that's gone into creating that garden. I think a big sturdy shed like that is essential to making going tiny more bearable and practical. You can gradually whittle through your remaining crap at your leisure, and store things like spare bedding, out of season clothing, craft supplies and leisure equipment, without having to give them up completely or factor them into your home. This is the same house as Shae's Mum and Dad's house right? The exact same floorplan, except her parents have added-on an additional ground floor bedroom, and enclosed the outdoor decking. But it's the same floorplan. It's a very clever floorplan allowing for proper stairs, full height connection walkway to both lofts, and even standing height in the dressing and storage areas of the bedroom. I love the separate lounge, LOVE the dividing hallway, with the washing machine and back door, and then the bathroom. I personally wouldn't opt for a separate toilet unless it had it's own sink. I don't think a door should come between wiping your nether regions, and being able to wash your hands - but each to their own, and she's styled it beautifully in there. Gorgeous wallpaper. I can't personally afford a front door let alone an entire house, but I'm totally on board with the idea of building a tiny that is luxurious. Some people claim going tiny SHOULD mean building a box on wheels out of free pallets and paying out very little financially, and of course for some people, that's what they need their home to provide. They just need a home that is cheap to build, is below certain sizes to avoid taxes or rules that apply to standard sized homes, and tinys were and still ARE a way to "cheat the legislation" regarding housing. But it's perfectly reasonable and natural that other people came to love the idea of going tiny for other benefits of the lifestyle that goes with it. For example, any part of a tiny on the INTERIOR that is FULL STANDING HEIGHT is counted legally as "square footage"...this is exactly WHY lofts are NOT full height. Turning the outdoor deck into another lounge area is also another way of adding another "room" to your home, without extending your total square footage of living space - because the deck is exempt from "living space" as it's outside. Tinys were designed to stay within the size limits of the cheapest housing bracket. Technically this home could not be legally classified as two bedrooms, because bedrooms by law must be full standing height. So of course the design of tinys is a challenge, how to create a proper sleeping space "feel" within a non legally defined "bedroom" area. And that's where the design, maximising storage space and increasing the practicality of tiny living really came into the journey. Older designs always had impractical ladders, sofas that you had to convert into a bed every night and put away every morning, and people just can't be doing with that day in day out. So I'm all for spending whatever budget you want to, despite it being a tiny house on wheels. Cost shouldn't reflect SIZE or SQUARE FOOTAGE only. Bigger doesn't mean better. The less housework and maintenance the better as far as I'm concerned, couldn't agree with her more on that! Smaller is cheaper, so why not spend those savings on pimping your small house at to it's MAX? No doubt someone on here will say the cost of this could buy them a five bedroom, two bathroom house somewhere else, and if more room is what you need, no one is stopping you! But that doesn't mean the money she's spent on a fraction of the square footage is money wasted! Most people live in a home and spend most of their life redecorating, improving, renovating and maxing out that house to be a comfortable haven... that's a helluva lotta year's working, never having the quality fixtures, fittings, furnishings and appliances you want, constantly aiming to achieve it. But when you reach her age, you don't WANT to spend your life doing housework, and every weekend landscaping or DIYing themselves to death! They just want to LIVE THEIR LIFE!!! A LUXURY tiny is the ultimate tiny imo. Paying out for ingenious design, quality of craftsmanship and ensuring a high end finished product is WORTH EVERY PENNY imo. Size really doesn't matter, it's what you do with it that counts, and what she's done with this is stunning. The landscape is entirely ridiculous it's so beautiful. I know she wants to live closer to family, but seriously, the surrounding area doesn't get anymore idyllic than THAT! The precision of her actual plot, garden, and shed is immaculate. The house flows like a dream and doesn't compromise on any practicality or ease of living despite it's small size. It really is perfection. It's beautiful. ❤
The result is so amazing. Imagine waking up with that view from your bedroom, banana tree and all that greens. So pretty. I love the bottle wall so much. Unique and so pretty when the sunlight gets through. And that ying yang hole is so cool too 😆😆😆 I hope we can see more earthship from this channel.
Now this is a tiny home at its finest. It's cozy, has get personal style oozing throughout. I am not a pink person, but this suits her and makes me just love this house.
I'll definitely be "borrowing" elements of this home when its time to design my own! I love the layout, and especially the separation in the bathroom ❤
What a wonderful and creative project. I didn't know this was real and not just a mini stage set. I enjoy the movie series and travellers are lucky to have this as a destination.
