Wood-Free Tiny House is Super Light! 

Couple things the architect said in the video "its about choices" , "its about what you leave out" People are choosing tiny homes mainly to leave out a lot of clutter. I "suffered" a flood not long ago. In fact it was a relief. All the "junk" I had in my life got flushed away with the flood. Living temporary in a small space with what I salvaged made we want to get rid of even that. It was clear I didn't need it. This is the focal point of tiny houses. Its natural to fill space. The larger space needs more stuff. And there is a cozy embrace and a joyful connection to the space of a home that fits you. While this is true for large homes as well, it seems more conscious of those who choose tiny homes as it is a clear and deliberate choice, and not just a cookie cutter acceptance of what has become "normal" for today's homes. A thing I like about this particular home is the significance of the wall design. Not sure if it is clear to everyone how important the design of these walls are. They are not dead weight adding to the load on the trailer. the entire channel of the house is a tubular rigid support.

$55,000 is so reasonable for a complete house, especially one with no maintenance exterior cladding and interior walls. Nicely done!

I love this house. The architectural design seems to make a difference. I like how structurally sound it is, super insulated, not have the challenges wood can bring, and how lightweight are such benefits. Even if it is a mind trick, the feeling of spaciousness is necessary for a tiny house. I am a fan of the modern, but I do prefer softer touches, something I could easily achieve with accessorizing the space. As a female, I love the larger bathroom. Thank you.

Oh I'm so glad you posted a tour of this tiny house... I saw a peak of it on another channel, but never a tour! I was so curious about how it was organized. THANK YOU!

Nope missing laundry 🧺 closet space for clothing hate the pitch of the roof too love the colours

I hope the designer doesn't mind if I call it the "IKEA" house! LOL!! It definitely reminds me of a modern Scandahoovian esthetic. And I take it the panels are structural foam sandwiched between two fiberglass panels. First time I've seen this used. Lots of panels with foam that use wood, either plywood or chipboard. This is different. There really needs to be a sample of the foam board onsite, maybe 1ft.×1ft. so folks can get an idea of the material used. Great video, much appreciated.

I am downsizing now, I see nothing wrong with having a few items that one can enjoy, in conclusion, this tiny house with the small kitchen and small refrigerator is not my style, however, for those who love it and buy it I applaud you and wish you the best.

For $55,000 I'd like to see more in the way of improvements. There's absolutely No storage whatsoever! Maybe they could make storage into the floor, with a door that lifts up. I would add a closet to the house itself, like an extra little space for coats boots etc. Also a Railing on the lofts, especially the smaller one, can roll right off. Didn't see any air conditioning or heating system either.

For those needing more space you could always add a slide out reclaimed from salvage. Easily available and cheap per square foot addition

Nice home for a senior.....State of Maryland prohibits tiny homes however.

Insulated structural panels don't loose any insulating property as all other insulation types do. It stays constant and it's strong and light. only thing is how would one add shelves if needed. food supply store areas, coat hanging places etc? Like the concept though. Really nice airy feel and the natural air flow is great too.

awesome and so many people fit in it

What I would look for in a small movable hose or a cottage is to have all beds at floor space, or on wall as murphy beds. Then I'd build lots of locking (so nothing falls out while traveling) storage spaces of varying size, some with "PullOutFloors" or even shallow drawers, with a library ladder for access, as these stroage spaces would be around all four walls at the top. Down the center on the ceiling, either one or two skylights, one of which should open to allow access to the roof for breakfast coffee or evening wine, provided the roof is sturdy and built to be walked/sat upon. milka The-Best-IS=BE/Coming AbundanceForAll

He really concentrated on making it feel big.

Hi Julie! These Tiny homes fascinate me! TFS.. 👍⚘❤

It looks much larger with the white paint. Looks like it was nicely laid out floor plan. Interesting discussion on not cramming everything under the sun into a small space. One of the better tiny homes I've seen. Nice video Julianne. -Robert

I built a 1270 sq ft house out of SIPs. It's a great material for heating/cooling efficiency.

I like the style of it.

I have a challenge for you....a place that works for my 6ft6in husband. He could not stand in this bathroom.

I love it!! It's so cheerful bright spacious bathroom which I'd have to have..

It looks like rain water would run off the roof, down the wall and across the windows, which would not be good if you wanted them open.

You are essentially living in a cooler... Needs more windows if you ask me.

Interesting! I never did catch where the ladders for the lofts are stored though.

Oh my goodness, thanks for going back. Couldn't see anything. I really love the clean lines. The kitchen is completely functional and small. Absolutely adorable! Although I would choose a different way for the couch, it has a couch. Why other tiny home builders think people do not read books or watch tv while sitting leaves me at a loss. Most of the early tiny homes were just small rolling kitchens with loft beds. This is a great little home.

How do these types of homes hold up against bad weather?

Wow the way he did that loft is very interesting! Awesome idea with that standing platform on top of the fridge!

Very nice. It's design features has spawned many questions and some research. The weight and strength are pluses. One small thing I thought is that it would have been nice if he'd routed in some safety handle into the hand rail of the stairs, as in a lot of yachts.

Cool ! Thumbs up. ENJOY... THE SIMPLE LIFE

Love tiny homes and I have money to buy one. Unfortunately there is almost no legal place to park them for permanent living.

I love to cook and can and dehydrate my harvests. I couldn't do that or even store the equipment in a tiny house. I would need an outdoor kitchen for these chores. If you live in a cold climate I don't think this would be comfy long term.

CLEAN LOOKING. MY FAVORITE, NON TOXIC??! How much?

For what you’d pay for that, I can buy 3 acres, 7 40 foot high cubes, and have over 1900 square feet of living space, and a 24 x 40 square foot garage/carport in the bottom floor.

A friend has a place as big as that. If we got cold we would light a cigarette to get worm. Then we quit smoking she got a cat to heat it. Lol

Creepy face nearly gave me a heart attack at 9:28

Smart man I think I would like a back splash like the counter top, the stove should not b boxed n like that I would like it more open cause when u fry the oil might splatter on the wall but still I like it

That fold out bed would be a problem with the split mattress. It would slide apart. Your futon idea would solve that.

Hello from the UK. I absolutely adore the design and aesthetic of this tiny house. Its minimalist, elegant appearance internally and externally are very desirable. Had I not known from this video that an architect designed it, I would have suspected it. However, there are a few aspects that worry me from a practical living perspective. Despite the closet (its footprint looks to be about 11 square feet), I have the impression there could be insufficient storage space. Secondly, in my opinion there is insufficient table area overall. The 'bar table' above the two stools appears usable by two people at breakfast, but would not be particularly comfortable or satisfying for two (or more) people to use at dinner, nor for two people to use simultaneously for work purposes (not to mention that the surface near the kitchen sink -- even with the butcher block sink cover -- would not be an ideal surface to place laptops, papers and so on. Furthermore, where in the living room would it be possible and practical to locate a printer? I also cannot see how it would be feasible to include a combined washer/drier unit in this design. I would be interested to know how practical a couple of people actually living in this tiny house would find it.

Old Growth Pine, = But its a wood free house. Yup sure is, Ah huh!

There was no discussion of price. The lofts were very short in headroom. What was the overall exterior height?

I really like the set up of thisbuild

It would of been great if the guy would get up from where he was sitting to see the kitchen area where the people was trying to see but other wise it's very cute small but roomy

and no one opened that other door in the living space. I am guessing that was a closet?

Hey Dirt, why don't you try to get closer with camera?! Get a microscopic lens so we can see germs. Dagnabbedit, we want the BIG picture. Canno' tell what the thing looks like. Now, this is what I want in tiny house! Towable so it doesn't have to be set up like a mobile home in a trailer park. An RV tiny house, pull the thing wherever I want to go! But built better than RVs.

I love the layout, but would like the rustic look outside and a little more inside but the white walls do help enlarge the feel with great colors! 👍 😉 💕 😇 ☮ Kellie p-b 💕

who ever is controlling the camera just hold still please. its like watching that movie Cloverfield. Made me sick

VERY NICE.

Looks like a jail house 😲😲😲

great!

Only things I like about this is the convertible sofa & the bathroom. I cook almost everyday, that kitchen layout would be a nightmare for me!

Wood free house with 100 year old wood counter top and 55,000 $ for the size of a bath room no thank !

Light as in weight? What happen when the next storm arrives? People have asked a lot of practical questions on here that make me wonder if it is livable.

I am looking for family that thinks like me. Traveling with a tiny home and big truck sounds cool. Lettuce and chard and kale can be grown on the walls. I would also like to live near a river for clean drinking water, or travel along side rivers. Or living on a houseboat would be really cool. A garden on a houseboat with a turbine and solar panels moving along the rivers of America, finally making it to the ocean for some reefs and snorkling. I had a NDE as a child. I knew then there is no such thing as death. So these are the types of books I read. I have felt many instances of energy enter and leave my body. I have felt energy beings fly through me, walk in to me and up to me, and lie next to me. I know that we are holograms because we spin, vibrate, pulsate and rotate too fast to be solid. In the book "Hands of Light" written by the NASA physicist Barbara Brennan, I found these words "People are eternal holograms, multidimensional, electromagnetic, energy/light/love. I have just been evicted because the electrical outlets in this apartment are not up to code. Loose outlets are fire hazards. These apartments should be fired/evicted from the system because, I have been told, they hire only 1 electrician for 24 properties. Their cut off date to fix this electrical issue is August 10th 2017 , then I have to move out. So isn't there a code that says these apartments have to be forcibly caused to hire an electrician? Immediately. Well, this is why I am moving. I pushed the issue when everyone else doesn't know it exists. Look it up. Loose, not tight, not twisted down wires around electrical outlets and blades and their wires are/have big chance of arching. These should be first priority.

I like it,but as a chef,a stove in the kitchen with no counter space on either side is very difficult to work at.

Ever climb a ladder straight up? I have. Very difficult. Maybe impossible without hand rails.

$55,000.00 sounds kind of high priced. So only higher income groups can afford them. But then they are nice and built better than the Travel Trailers. I think they are right now a fad and not such a good investment unless one could afford to loose $$ later when selling them. Toys for the rich are well made. I would feel more at home in a $160.00 bunk house. A lot of mobile living units out there on the hiways these days.

What the heck is "structural insulation'? Who makes it?

Kk I have a ? , what was the other door in the front for ? . SKK .

Sorry to be a nuisance, but I'm not seeing a link where this house can be bought, priced, etc.

I want a MOBILE tiny home, that I can drive if need be.

What are the walls exactly made of?

Really nice and how much?

65 thousand I just buy a house

Washer and dryer?

How much does it weigh? How light is Super Light?

Why didn't they look in the closet by the door?

Two things: 1. Cooking would be a nightmare with the stove in a corner with not even a slender counter to put a cooking spoon. 2. Why was she not even curious as to what wa behind the door next to the front door?

Question what was in the space to the left of the entrance door. It seemed to have a door into this space but was not explained

I'm 6'4". This would NEVER work for me, not with a 6'5" ceiling...😕

Cost again? Don't remember. Like the towing load lightness. Thanks ! Is there a way to get listings of the different TINY zhouse showings around the country?

why it no one asks how much does this house costs ?, I like tiny house's however, I cannot deal with the tiny bedrooms, the roof needs to be taller, take this house for instance, where am I going to put my turntables, speakers, receivers, my albums, momentous ?

Maybe its supposed to be full of free wood verses wood free.

ok I saw lots of interior wood,lots

Thank you for the tour. I see lots of wood grain in there, is it all made from material other than wood? Did I miss that part?

Yasssssssssss!!!👍👏

how do you anchor to overcome high winds

probably 90% of people are farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr toooooooooooooooooooooooooo spoiled to live in a T-house.

elton John?

I love it and the bathroom isn't right beside the kitchen! I just hate it when they build the bathroom right beside the cook stove! stinky and nasty!! I mean when the home is a micro I understand but when the home is a little larger they can put the bathroom like they did this one or even put the washer or closet just something to seperate the kitchen from the bathroom!!!

was he saying $85k at the beginning of the video?

Where does the computer stuff go?

9:27 no regrets.

the presenter seems to sneer at the house. It's too small for her. She doesn't like the look. Okay, fine- others do. Using SIPS panels is a fantastic idea- makes the whole thing go together quicker and is better insulated while at the same time being lighter. It's made to live in, not bounce down the road every weekend. I love this little house.

i see wood everywhere, so how is this wood free?

"Choices"

Is that Ron Whites brother? Tater

Where can I get more info about this house?

How's it wood free?

how light ?

how do you find all these tiny houses? I'm interested in buying one and idk where to start looking

How many doll hairs for this ?

0:44 what about that table top?! :O

How much does it actually weigh? Did I miss it?? Thanks

I like the panel construction, but it's not built around accessibility.♿️

The link doesn't work.

Como se sube a la parte de arriba, la que nó tiene escaleras.

I wish you guys could show it better.

There web link doesn't work .

Wood-free??? I see loads of wood trim every where

not for me

YES !!!! This is the much looked-forward-to "next step". milka - The-Best-IS=BE/Coming AbundanceForAll
