Spectacular 20ft Off-The-Grid Tiny Shipping Container House 

I didn't expect the bed area to have enough space that you could sit up. That was a nice surprise!

What I like most is the bathroom. Very clever. Total off grid, no bills. That is the way to go. Great Job.

Ok so i came from watching kdramas on RU-vid and now im addicted to watching tiny homes for 3 days straight been streaming that. And bryce one thing i noticed are your positive comments to everytiny homes. That's really sweet

I'm sure i'm not the only one who found the owner very eloquent and smart which only added to the charm of her amazing space.

She really has done a brilliant job! Quite clever with the split level and utilizing a high cube. Crafty way to fit so much under the 10m2 for that pesky council...

This is the only 20 footer that I have thought "I could live there". She really did a great job on the design of the place. It is beautiful and functional. Excellent idea to put the bedroom under the living room; how cool is that. I would still like to have more room than that but goodness that place is really nice. Lots of great idea's. Janice

I love the interior choices. It's very easy on the eyes and cozy.

brenda hit it right out of the ballpark with her container home! hats off to her for a job well done.

Nice bidroom with plenty of hidroom

This one is awesome! Definitely a few things we haven't seen before in a tiny space, particularly the inverse-loft... very cool idea. It's also nice to see someone else who shares our opinion of the living room area being a place where you won't be standing and thus can design it accordingly.

Love that she made her childhood wish a reality for her and her lovely 🐈kitty! Well 👏🏻done young lady!!👍🏻😄🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦

It's a blue box that is bigger on the inside! Where's the doctor?

This place is BRILLIANT! The one thing I don't care for with 'tiny houses' in the US is the sleeping loft and ladder. Once you hit 60 and have to go NOW in the middle of the night and have an issue with Vertigo in the dark, it's not the best for safety. Far too small for us 2 guys and our 2 Greyhound kids BUT I've taken away some really good ideas! The main level sleeping area is stellar! BRAVOS to Ms Kelly and a BIG thanks to you for posting a fabulous tiny home!!!

She should sell these on the international market. love the design

Love that the bedroom is at the bottom first time seeing this in a tiny home brilliant

This was the first tiny house I have watched on youtube. I watched this video 5 years ago and searched for it now. I love this tiny house.

Absolutely fantastic!! One of my very faves ever. Brilliant

"It's my favourite seat in the house" - well to be fair there are like 2 seats in this house, one of the two had to be your favourite

Appearances are deceiving..This home looked nothing that I thought it would look like from the outside. This is a very lovely home. 👏👏😃🏠

I think she did really well considering she wasn't allowed to use the whole space for code reasons. Her budget roughly translates to $25,000 USD which is pretty good considering the container costs @4-5 grand plus 2 for shipping.

Looks can be deceiving... I admit I don't like the harshness of the blue, I'd paying it green or something else so it looks more harmonious with the environment. But inside, perfection! I'm 5'3 tall, I want a tiny house!

This is probably the best example of a converted container I've seen, and one that looks comfortable, clean and modern. Well done!

This is awesome. No rent, no electricity bill. The bathroom was cute. And the nature and serenity seems so blissful.

I love how the bed is. I want to live in a van until I save enough for a permanent home, either a "tiny home" on a trailer or a container. I thought a container would be better submerged for thermal advantages in the UK but having a living room higher brings a much better view. having the bed below means no climbing and I see you don't slouch etc so it's a good height, leaving the rest of the space open which feels less enclosed. I love it

Having watched so many of these videos, I am so impressed with the host. He has just the right amount of enthusiasm and asks all the right questions

Love the fact that this is off the grid. This is truly sustainable housing.

Omg i'd totally live in something like this as a single person, that's such a awesome living space!

Oh my God these old videos are Gold. Did anyone notice how Bryce was less excited in his compliments back then? More subtle. I’m not complaining about either. I love Bryce in any shape or form.

Bryce, I have noticed, videos that get the most views on your channel are the tours of small houses built by other people, the interest is clearly there. Your interviewing skills and on camera presence are very good, and Melissa's eye for camera detail is excellent. Have you considered going full time interviewing people from around the world building their own small houses, I believe you would have the audience to support such a bold venture. Here in the States we have a TV program called Tiny House Nation, that airs on the FYI network, and, it has had good reviews. Small house builds seem to be more than a fad, but rather a new way of living. By building small we can enjoy life more to its fullness. I have been following Troy over at The Do It Yourself World channel where he is building a small house and posting videos of his progress every day. I know everyones scheduled is different, so, I offer these comments as suggestions. It would be nice to see more videos of your own build.

small? This is bigger than my current apartment.Very nice

Brenda is really gifted at tiny house design. I have seen two of your videos of her tiny houses and both are pure genius. I really love that she managed to create 3 "rooms" that one would feel like they were entering a completely separated space with the unique loft design. I also love that she has an actual usable desk with ergonomics in consideration: raising the monitor up to your eye level by putting the monitor on top of the printer, sliding keyboard drawer (I rarely see a tiny house with a keyboard, which is needed for ergonomic reason), double decker desk for paper underneath and potted plant atop. Little ideas can create a big difference in productivity for those of us who work from (tiny) home.

I love it this place! I really do think that she's a Time Lord.

2:20 'I'm young enough to get on my knees...' Woah, gurl, hold your horses!

Favorite shipping container home.

What a brilliant use of space!! Love this. Tiny Home Community, let me ask you this--who are the 466 people (or anyone watching these videos) who are thumbing these down? What is there not to like about any of this? If you don't like the concept of tiny homes and it's not for you, why are you looking at this? These are for people who have a love and appreciation for innovative, clever, and awesome homes in a tiny package. Each home is different, all great, the host is engaging, and the people are friendly. One day, I hope to build a tiny home myself!

I have done a lot of research on container homes and small homes and for the space this looks like the most well planned containers Ive seen while still being comfortable for the long term! I really like this one!

Awesome. I live in two containers and you have inspired me. Cheers Paul

Resourceful lady.........sure beats the rent trap!

This is awesome..... Living off the grid doesn't mean u can't have a gorgeous place.... Love it !!!!

wow this is brilliant, and good to see Off grid home in New Zealand getting more popular, it's my favorite kind of living. Wow that lady is obviously so talented in designing her home, I like it a lot! :-) I love the idea of the shower room too!

I keep coming back to this container build. It's such a fresh original design made specifically for a modern living style. Laptop charging / phone. Easy meal prep facilities. Area for reading, studying, texting, playing the guitar etc. It wouldn't take much to add to this for a more permanent lifestyle person / people. ie more solar panels and bigger inverter. evac tubing hotwater.

This is one of my very favorite "tiny homes" so far! She was able to get all that she needed & desired in this space and I think that it's incredible.....Job well done young lady!!😀👍👍

I love her living room/bedroom setup. That looks amazingly comfortable.

I think this is a spectacular container home off grid. Very smart lady and of course her dad! Kudos.

Outside view is so simple but when you come inside very stunning and neat! I love the design

Inspirational to say the least!!!!! (Applause!!!!!).....This is exactly what I have been after as well.....and "off the grid" topped it in my books...well done! You deserve to enjoy it to the full.....amy you have many happy years there!

Looks amazing and very cozy. That woman has talent! :D

"so umm.. let's check out the sleeping area.." smooth, dude, smooth. ;)

Probably the nicest 20footer I have seen done.

I love how well he listens, he looks so zoned in. lol

Shipping Container is absolutely fantastic!

It looks tiny on the outside but definitely spacious in the inside. Love it!

what a great personality and positive attitude.

I like this even more, than the 2 container version where she lives now..... that bathroom, just adorable en chique PLUS; this is the greatest looking off grid container i've ever seen... and i've seen a lot ( because i want to make my own lol )

Tino pai e hine. Nothing like living amongst it all and claiming it your own. 👍🏽

This was brilliant &awesome. She's genius. The more I watch these vids, the more I am seriously thinking of getting my own tiny house. Fr fr

If you can make the living room and the bedroom to change their high then this would be perfect. What I mean is to use a platform lifted with hydraulics for example.

2:20 ... "luckily I'm young enough, getting on my kneed is not an issue." snicker

most tiny houses focus so much on wood (or wood-looking-plastic) and i find it very cabin-in-the-woods. maybe nice for a weekend, but lacks the interior design value. i fell in love with this container house! finally someone who doesn't give up on decoration because they have a smaller space to live in. i adored the bathroom -which is something most people somehow overlook. i could even see myself living there, it's that fantastic.

I have to say, this is my favorite tiny house I have seen yet. Love it, thanks for sharing!!

I really love this space! Brenda has done a wonderful job! Love it, Love it! Did I mention I love it!!!!! Wow

This woman is genius!!

Brilliant idea to put the bedroom down and the living room on the top. So far this is the best design in a small space like this.

Just when I thought I’ve seen it all...the living room was built on TOP! Awesome idea

For those asking about cooking facilities, this is from the web page. A portable gas burner sits below the bench and is only brought out when needed. For larger meals, a BBQ sits just outside the door of the container in the undercover area.

lovely, livable, unique and only the price of a car. wonderful. Now if govt would just let us live as we please

Incredibly well thought out with ingenious use of space and 2 level living/sleeping area's. I'm in ❤ with the bathroom...what was done with the ceiling is brilliant 👍. This young lady should freelance as a "tiny home" designer.

Wow. From 5 yrs ago! This channel has come so far and has grown beautifully . Watching this in lockdown 😁😉

this is most smartly done tiny house I've come across from the many others.

Very cosy, brilliant use of the space. However I would add washing machine (in the bathroom maybe) and stove (just a little one in the kitchen bench. It is perfect!!

It’s basically like a camper that does not move, but I would rather see a bed that comes down from the ceiling than a bed under the couch 😊

Yeah Brenda! It took a woman to show how it's done. You go girl!

so beautiful. well done. my husband and I just had a 25 foot travel trailer given to us and we want to take it down to the medal frame and build from there. bravo!!! gave us some great ideas! thanks so much for sharing.

" young enough that getting on my knees is not an issue." I love you baby girl!

This home has a very modern feel. Like others have stated, splitting up the living space and bed in such a way was a great way to maximize the space.

Best 20ft container home I've seen so far

Thank you Brenda for sharing your home with us. I am not yet a tiny home owner but it is on my radar, the container idea might be the ticket. Your sleeping area/living area is a great idea. Also I love how much you have done in a VERY small space, I was worried about the bathroom/shower area until I saw it, it looks like it is disconnected from the rest of the home, is smell/moisture the reason for that? This is a TEENY home! Well done! Converted NZD to US and you spent under $25k (US) do to it, which is very good for how much and how nice it is.

The 20-footers are EXTREMELY limiting so unless you have a specific zoning regulation you are trying to beat by having minimal square footage, consider a 40-foot standard or even better a 40-foot or longer High Cube container. Keep in mind an ISO container is just a steel box so insulation (if needed), plumbing, wiring etc remain to be done. ISOs are nice to work with if you weld. The 20s are considered "cute" so they tend to sell for as much as a forty-foot standard. I prefer the High Cubes so I use two joined as shop space. I'd live in an ISO house if I didn't already have houses, but they are really best suited to people who are used to metalworking. I am and my welders are inside my shop hence instantly handy. The least expensive space for most Americans is still the typical mobile home or a repurposed mobile office trailer, but ISOs are highly storm-resistant. Do your homework, and there is a lot of homework, before committing to build. Also consider ISOs in conjunction with other steel building products designed to integrate them. I suggest getting a container to use as a shop which will support building a more advanced structure as a home. I had a power pole with panel and outlets placed so I'd have site power before working on my containers. Inexpensive and very convenient.

Great use of space! Love the idea of having the bedroom underneath

I wouldn’t mind living in that it looks really cute and comfortable

luckily shes young and getting on her knees is not a problem

Is she sitting in her bowl of apples?

Two years and i am looking for something out of the box,,, this is definitely out of the BOX.. well done

This is actually a well-thought out space. Love the little details like strip lighting, see through roof in the bathroom, shelving units hidden at the bed ends not to mention power-regulating measures👍👏

The concrete in the tire is a great idea -- might make "earthship" building go faster. I see the economic advantage to these tiny homes, but for two or more people, I just can't imagine it being comfortable. Maybe at a rate of one tiny home per person, but then I'd rather build a modestly sized house.

Amazing! A great clean design! I loved the living area above the sleeping area. I will build four units here in Brazil, for rent to university studants, and im searching for some brilliant ideas like that. (sorry my bad english)

I never thought about elevating the living space to make a bedroom beneath. Gonna vet that idea with my GF.

My favorite video so far!!! I love the colors she used inside and out! Would love to see how the landscaping turned out.

OMG THIS HOME IS AMAZING! IT LOOKS SO SMALL FROM THE OUTSIDE BUT IT IS NOT BAD AT ALL

Wonderful. One of the best I've seen

I think this one is the smartest, well balanced, budget efficient and ideal tiny house.

This is one of my favorites. She has everything she truly needs. Beautiful home!

that was most excellent planning.

Does anybody see the stove in the kitchen area ? I don't feel like i see one

This is a great idea and there are tons of people that agree with downsizing and living simple. I try to do the same in my CamperVan when traveling and I love it!

What's especially nice is that she has a comfortable guest area.

I want this house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love that layout! Blessings to you in your new home! :-)

Great house, tiny but cosy place to stay. She got everything she needs in her tiny house, you can really tell that this woman proud with this house🏠 . Great job, good to see when people creates happy living for themselves. I Really like the show and community members who watches this show, nice place to gather new ideas✍👍

This is the best budget interior design I've seen yet! It's a shame this has only popped up in my feed now, but I love this! I like sleeping on the floor anyway, and I hate stumbling off a high platform when you go to the bathroom or let out the dog in the middle of the night, so this is the best design yet!
