NEVER TOO SMALL 40sqm/430sqft Tiny Cabin - The Pod 

Do you guys have any numbers on the price tag for building this gem of a building?

Dope👊👊

@@damysticalone87 - Do you have any proof that this tiny house design is yours? Cuz there's nothing shown about any houses on your channel.

@@damysticalone87 - I can see some links to other channels in your about page. But I can't click on them on my phone. Your "rules" aren't proof that this is your design and it isn't original, man.

Absolutely love it....what was the approx project cost?

And at the same time, it is an advertisement of AirBnB, which is destroying the sustainability of local people in big cities. Sorry, but I cant buy the "I support local businesses" while you are part of an extremely harmful business for those people you say you support.

@@rever6612 how is it destructive? Please explain

@@aayotechnology Investors purchasing homes in cities only to rent them out via Airbnb and violating regulations (e.g. max number of days you're allowed to rent out your home) which Airbnb also does nothing about to prevent and ignoring legislation, resulting in neighbourhoods dying out because locals no longer have "neighbours", no fixed communities, and fewer social contacts because it's only people coming in for brief holidays. At the same time, it drives up housing prices, which makes it impossible for people who are looking for a home to actually live in to buy property. Airbnb is less of a "local host offering a local experience to visitors" experience, and more of "corporate investors hollowing out cities and basically renting out properties at far higher prices than allowed for actual rental properties by pretending they're holiday homes" thing. You can find a bunch of articles about it.

@OJD PUBLISHING Dude, it has everything to do with the owner of such property. Making money at the expense of social cohesion et al. Re-read @max comment a bit more closely

Promo for Airbnb, destructive to local communities

looks dead af. no colors this is not the future. disgusting people really and 40qm is not small

Love that fireplace so much

FINALLY !!! Similar style I prefer. & Fantastic Artisans !

Do you really like it? I would die in such a dark kitchen!

I feel exactly the same way as you. This whole house is just beyond.

i love it too! but the "color pattern" is absolutly basic. Brown and black lol I like it but why do you even mention that haha

Well, Tasmania isn’t what you might call “densely populated”.

Amsterdam is 5 vierkante meter voor 3k per maand nu

When someone describes a place as "cozy" is when I know they are trying to sell it to me. Cozy in the context of rooms descriptions is always an euphemist for "extremely small".

@@rever6612 or with a vibe that draws you to be comfortable or even warm but a dark, metallic and pointy fire place does not do that.

I think it's cozy

Mordor was the first word that came into my mind too. 😂

Congrats ! i made a lot during covid from my passive income .

Congrats and wishing you the best .

Wow what an achievement! Best of luck for the rest of your future.

@@voxelemur well it’s not really airBnB that’s the problem. If it’s just someone renting out their place when they travel like her it’s totally fine. The issue is landlords choosing it over long term rentals which is a policy issue

@Spartan Hegemony What's wrong with it is that it turns city centers into tourist accommodation at the expense of actual local inhabitants, like in Amsterdam.

@@SanjarTheKingOfKings tourism isn’t important also for cities?

@@aayotechnology Of course it is, and projects such as showcased in this video are great. But the problem is thousands upon thousands of existing properties being permanently hired out to tourists and therefore completely out of the regular housing market, when there already is a massive housing shortage.

@@SanjarTheKingOfKings it’s a complex situation. You can’t just point your finger at Airbnb and not blame lack of new development. You’re trying to hold back the tide and what the market bears. I don’t, but many people in my city live off tourism. You want to limit their success?

being rich also accomplishes similar goals

…and it low-key reminds me of the drones in "Oblivion!”😬😬😬

same. it ruins the entire living area and why on earth would you block the view with it?

I’ve seem this place featured a few times before and couldn’t agree more with you. It is stunning though and would look fantastic in the garden

Should've opted for a low table with a fire pit in the middle

If you look at the inside, there's really no place to put it w/o ruining the symmetry of the interior. Also, it's not only a fire place but a piece of art. To relegate it to some other part of the house would be an injustice to the piece as well as the artist. To me, the house was built with function over form but I believe it met both criteria equally. If one wants to see an adulterated view of the water, one only has to get up off their butt. But to solve your concern, I would probably add a small deck that is surrounded by 3 foot glass (not flexiglass as they turn yellow after a while) walls to not obstruct the view and to prevent people from falling below and deep enough to accommodate two small tables and four chairs so one can seat, drink one's favorite beverage and enjoy the scenery. I'm aware that they will have to change the fixed windows to sliding doors. FTR, there are door manufacturers that make sliding doors unobtrusive. Some are even frameless.

The design world lost a great talent when she decided to write travel books instead of doing design full time!

the fireplace ruined the view imho

Try making that bed every morning or changing the sheets. I was hoping she'd show how it is done.

fair enough. i'd add in the description: bring your own flashlight, because it is a dark space. and don't sue me if you trip and fall off the porch or the stairs, or inside the dark space

The other renovations weren't cheap either. Your point still stands if you prefer renovations because they have preexisting constraints that have to be considered and worked around.

There are still plenty of those available.

You can't actually "live" in these pods. Could a single person do it? sure. No washer/dryer, place for vacuums, dryfood, etc. It's literally half of an apartment.

I would disagree on the affordable part. The main expense would be the land, not the home. There are many home building shows out there you can watch (impossible builds on hulu) that are stunning and extremely cheap that follow this exact style of building. 2 "boxes" built separately and then "push" together, probably round 30-60k. The real expense was probably going local and the fine luxury/high end items inside the house

@@2_Bike_is_Life I disagree. There is space for a washer dryer (it was in the video), a vacuum could easily be laid up against a wall or I'm sure you could find a creative solution in the storage space, 'dryfood', same thing. Keeping the place aesthetically clean would be the challenge. Regardless, you said you can't live in 'these pods' which I assume you're referring to pods like this? I mean, the only thing this thing is missing is maybe a large closet for storage, that's about it, but you could easily live without it if you had to. I think maybe 500SQFT would be the sweet spot with a storage space.

Hello Bonnie

Yeah, I don’t think she fully knows what the words “float” or “literally” actually mean.

Underrated comment

This is all a small mind would get from the entire video...smh.

It's a beautiful property and spot, seriously big props to the entire space, but I do agree; the floating "feel" is a bit ruined with the structural support as it's almost flush with the picture window that overlooks, maybe it's just the angle of the shot. Of course you have to consider the structural integrity of the building, but it is a bit jarring.

@@markprice1617 we got a big brain over here everyone... learn to have a laugh

40m for single person housing is massive, house this size is not a tiny home and would never solve the housing crisis

how expensive was it?

Ahhh that's where I'd seen it!!

@@EriktionEBW 320K AUD plus 140k for the land. Grand Designs Australia Series 8 Ep 5

@@thomashartleyxyz 140k for the land with that view???? Very surprised.

@@thejohnson9204 Think land is quite cheap in Tassie

Lots of mention of air bnb.....

It is an Airbnb advert. I’ve noticed some tiny space/house channels pushing this Airbnb thing lately.

Stop these Airbnb adverts on this channel

No

@@casperfransz4926 lol they have to get paid somehow. do you think they just put hundreds of hours of driving, filming, editing, etc to get no money haha? You can watch this video for free, so don't complain about the ads in the videos.

XD

there are so many of those tiny houses who have something like that smack in the middle of the view - maybe some "design trend" but I am with you - stupid.

it’s about having a small footprint and not being in debt your whole life. it’s not for everyone.

@@lilpsack7194 Funny to talk about dept, when this "tiny' space must have cost a fortune, altough it's just her place to rent, so yeah, no dept if you are filthy rich.

@@lilpsack7194 You've got go be joking. The sofa costs a fortune, the fireplace costs a fortune, those huge glasses replacing walls cost a fortune, the wood used in the interior costs a fortune. And it's not even the main house of anyone. By the way, it's a small house, but not tiny, and certainly larger than the one I live in.

@@tiagojordao4105 👌🏼

Yes, agreed. Maybe ‘visually’ or ‘almost’ might’ve worked better!

agreed lol. cantilevered? maybe. floating? no

Yep. 'Literally' gets abused too often as an emphasis

People literally don't know what it means.
