- This amazing small home has been built using two 40ft high cube shipping containers, slightly of-set from one another to create a stunning, off-the-grid family home.

Feeling inspired to downsize after watching tiny home and small house design videos online, this couple decided to take the plunge into designing and building a shipping container home for their family to reduce their expenses and be able to dedicate more time to the things that really matter.
You can find our more about this tiny home on our website: www.livingbiginatinyhouse.com/...
This off-grid container home is completely solar powered, with a huge solar array producing more than enough power for the small house. It's water is collected from a nearby bore.

Lol! Ikr I'm addicted also I just love this channel!!!👍💯💕💕😁
I love this couple! They seem SO in sync! They seem like they really are connected with each other and are respectful of each other's needs. There have been a few couples that have made me cringe, but these two seem like they still enjoy each other.
NEEDS 😂
It must be so rewarding for the host to meet all these families his channel has inspired!
The host does such a good job asking pertinent questions and directing the conversation. I've watched several and am impressed with the houses he finds and the interesting people he interviews!
Properly cause the host is a Kiwi too 😂😎🙏🙋👍
Hello Teresa
i am starting to fall in love with this host ! what a man with positive vibes all the time ! He and his videos just give me some hope for living, thank you buddy.
Love love love 💘 it
@heavysaxophonemusic you are a complete moron
@heavysaxophonemusic just come out already, dont self hate.
I fell hard when I started watching a couple of years ago. He's delicious!
He's adorable! Too bad I'm about twice his age.
I've read some of the comments below and all prove to be in-sink and provide valuable info... At the end of the day this amazing couple with three kids are doing what is best for them and not what society as a whole expects from them. Cheers to this family for being bold and choosing this amazing lifestyle.
Jeff Papin 'in sync'* - but completely agree with your points, it's nice to see people break free from lives that most people don't even think you need to break free from x
You're in a sink? What?
Absolutely!
Oh wow the aerial view is amazing!
She has the most beautiful blue eyes I have ever seen!
Yes
Bit Swedish Background...
*OMG, you are right.* The eyes are just startlingly, breathtakingly amazing.
A very beautiful pair both of them.
Her eyes matches the solar panels😊
@Thomas Barnhart ......You are referring to the look of love and adoration. I hope they always remain together and have lots of Grandchildren to enjoy.
Awww these two are sooo inspiring and the host. But this couple give me a warm feeling inside you can tell they still are in love 😍 almost 10 years later. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Married for 10* probably been together for 13+ years :)

Couples are usually pleasant while in front of a camera. What we see tells us nothing about the reality of their lives. Nothing! If it's accurate, then more power to them, but life has taught me that most things aren't what they seem to be on the surface.
@@segarza but this is almost unscripted thing, you also can their chemistry by seeing the way they act
It looks like a tiny house mansion! It's beautiful!!
This is one of the nicest homes I've seen. And it doesn't feel tiny at all.
i love how utterly passionate Bryce is about the architecture and varying styles of these homes, even more than the owners!
The design and layout of these two containers is very clever. Nice to see a family so happy in their tiny house. It's certainly got me thinking about doing the same for my family.
Love seeing more stationary small homes! The tiny house on wheels approach isn't for me, so it's great to see alternatives.
The great thing about container homes is that they are still easy to move, which makes them a good option for those who want to own their own home, but for whom land ownership is out of their immediate reach. We're always on the hunt for small homes of all kinds!
Okay, wow. I never say that on tiny houses because I'm so picky, but I'd move in there in a second. Beautiful, open, clean and cozy. Wow.
Glad you like this one!
This isn't a tiny house
Why not? Compared to the average house sizes in NZ and the US, and based on the size of the bedrooms, I'd say it is. It's not a Tiny House on Wheels, though, I'm aware of that.
Living Big In A Tiny House I wished they doubled decked it. Another floor so they would have more room for the kids and bigger bathroom. Maybe an exterior bathroom using a 20 ft. container. Love their design though. Love their surroundings too.
I wouldn't call it a tiny house. this is a trailer size. they missed the point of the tiny house movement. however, I agree, it is a nice place, I would move in too.
I've been driving passed that area almost everyday and only now am i finding out just how amazing this tiny house is
this is one lucky and happy man,,
I think the three kids in one room probably isn't as big of a problem as some people think. I grew up in a big house (ten kids in my family), but my four youngest siblings (3 boys, 1 girl) ended up sharing a bedroom for a long time, because they all just wanted to be together. It's easy to forget sometimes that each kid having their own room is a relatively modern and western concept that a lot of the world still doesn't follow.
Indeed! Grew up sharing my room with my bro
Not every child has to have their room but at least to have two room one for boys and one for the girls. Problem start to rise when they are in teenager/early 20.
Agreed. I think the bigger picture some have missed here is that the parent's are freed from mindless consumption....and the flow on benefits of that lifestyle choice. Emotionally connected and available vs distracted and stressed comes to mind.
Grew up sharing a room with my two sisters, even though we each had our own room! We were just more happy and comfortable being together!
Remote Controlled i think the problem is when they grow to adult size humans. That room is extremely tiny.
Gorgeous home! Brilliant, lovely couple. This is one of your best finds, Bryce. Thanks - as always - for sharing the adventure with us.
Thanks so much Sherrill! So glad that you enjoyed the tour. 😃
This is an improvement over the previous bicycle home I just watched. The two brothers or what ever they were, welded a bird cage and added walls and floor and biked across some distance feeling proud.
What a great couple-you can tell how much family means to them! I wish the host would’ve asked about the property they’re on. It’s really amazing!
Wow, the house looks so clean and organized after 3 years of living. The wood and copper does make it more homey and warm.
Cynthia lots of shove and tuck before the filming lol!!
cause a youtuber was coming so it needed to be.
Cynthia L fv
These lovely quirky couple scored themselves a lovely home for the family
I am not a tiny house person but I could see joining several shipping containers for a house large enough for my needs. I love the innovations in this home.
Beautiful home, Most times it amaze me greatly the way I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years to doubt that opportunities are bound in the financial markets, The only thing is to know where to focus.
The decision to invest is an acknowledgment that it comes with certain risks. Not all investments will do well and some may lose money. However, without risk, there would be no opportunity to potentially earn the higher returns that can help you grow your wealth.
@Queen OF Love That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like Mr Tony Alin berker my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors......
Wow I can't believe you guys are discussing about *Mr Tony Alin berker* , I once met him at a conference in California 2019, just before the pandemic. I can testify that is very good in trading..Highly recommended.
@@nyreggie Well this not my first time of seeing this name on social platform. A CNBC news host spoke highly of this man and his trading strategies. Do you know him ? if yes , did you invest with him ?
@@roklin1 Yes i do, I've known him for couple of years , I'm still using his services , His management team is quite impressive so far.... with my $15,000 deposit, I made over $288,000 profit with just 10% charge.
Just Add another container when the kids are older and need their own space.
3 kids, 2 containers, a wife who likes to cook to get them big, a father who can't say " NO " .... new zealand chainsaw massacre at some point. guranteed !
Tell us all about your Masters in Early Childhood Development............completely bypassed the fact that they have parent's freed from the shackles of consumption.
rofl.....
rofl
no that's when you kick them out and tell them to get a job !!!
What a cute couple. They did such a nice job with the house.
Love the fact that the kids are in the one space, that's what creating a wonderful family unit is all about
I love this tiny home! The mud room is amazing the living room is beautiful the landscape is INCREDIBLE! I feel like the kids need a little bigger space but what they've done with this is fantastic!
It must have been wonderful for you to have them share their story and open their beautiful home for you to tour. Wow, to find out that your travels and tours you have spent countless hours editing to share with all of us is what inspired them to create such a well built lovely home 👍Safe and happy travels :)
They are such a lovely couple (and family)! We really enjoyed meeting with them and touring their beautiful home. It's an amazing feeling that our show is partially responsible for inspiring this project! ❤️
I like it when that happens.
greets from The Netherlands.
kids grow up fast, another shipping container may need to be installed when they become teenagers, lol.
I was wondering about that, where do they store the kids toys ore did they downsize on this as well?
And what will they do when the kids grow up, and maybe need more of there own space?
Alien_Industries l reckon a small tiny house next door for teenagers is the perfect solution. Close to parents but still their own space. They sure have enough power there. Lovely design.
He never enters the house until invited in. He's a vampire.
Sookie is mine!
Exactly
LOL facts thoo
Holy shit ur right...lol
you made my day
What a beautiful couple!!! They both seem so sweet and a great sense of humor
What a lovely couple, they are changing the paradigm of what homeownership looks like. How freeing.
Hello beautiful
Amazing what people can do when they put they’re mind to it. Beautiful home and totally off grid that’s awesome
They are such a cute couple, and you can see how much love they have for each other and there kids. Now the house is amazing and would love to do. Shipping containers are becoming more and more the way to start. Great job guys!
That's keyword.... "Happiness." Your happiness. Now that's how ya'' do it. "Great job!"
Do you have more information on where and quality built container homes for sale
Dude sounds like the rock thing from Thor Ragnarock
😂😂
hey mane!
Hello. I am Korg. This is Meik.
GAH CAN'T UNHEAR
thats because both people are from newzeland and we all have the same accent, babahaha
Bryce - what are you doing to me guy?!? You keep OUTDOING yourself by always topping the last video with the most current. THIS was super - I loved the idea of two containers buttressed together and they did an outstanding job of design and workmanship! I think this is fantastic - a wonderful home for such a great young family. Thanks Bryce, take care my friend ;)
Hey Charles! Thank's so much mate. Really glad you're continuing to enjoy watching our videos!!! You're a legend! Cheers and have a great week!
Hi Bryce - TRUST ME - I never miss a video of yours - you do such outstanding work and bring us the best of the best and really interesting people too! You're a good man Bryce - take care and thanks a lot for hitting me back. Be safe ;)
that is one amazing comfortable home. self powered too. No Electricity bill. how nice is that
Such a beautiful couple with a beautiful home very proud of them wish some ppl in America could be this positive and this beautiful hearted
I bet this two shipping containers combination has stolen my heart. I just have to these 2 lovely couple to help me link with their designer architect so I can be in touch please I’ll be very pleased to hear from you🥰🙏
I just love the house it has everything anyone would need to live comfortably and I love the aerial shot it shows a snug protected and safe place for the family. Once again a great post thank you so much.
For 150k plus no telling how much else you would have to spend to get it to look like that....Another 100 grand I am sure, it`s just unrealistic, and a mobile home would be much more suitable of a family of 5.
Wonderful home. Now we need a pre-made home that can fit into the shipping container, and delivered on the budget.
Have been watching these regularly, -don’t know how I missed this amazingly beautiful and thought out home! Well done !
the advantages of using container ship as house
1. you can add another one easily
2. you can even move your house to another place
3. it's safe from earthquake
4. it's fast to build
5. ...........
Low electric costs and easy to power
Just a human
Self sustainable. Mostly.
Cheap, comapring other mode of houses
Narrow as fuck
77Avadon77 like ur dick
great home with shipping containers, congratulations to the owners ,beauty home with tiny spaces
Yes!!! Finally we have found another family that have the same ideas as us about life ✨🦋
I'm sure there are a lot out there!
Living Big In A Tiny House What are they going to do when the kids get bigger?
add more containers....
We have trouble finding large families that are doing it.
Our Happy Tribe Maybe "earthships" would be a better choice. Check them out if you don't know what they are.
One of the best I’ve seen yet!! My husband is designing ours right now. I am sold it after seeing this one. ❤️❤️❤️
This is the first tiny house I've seen yet that I wouldn't want. I'm glad it is working for this family though.
@KennethStevenson It's as important to know what you don't like as what you do. I run out to my driveway with the tape measure and start considering the dimensions and the space. Watch a lot of videos and evaluate the elements. The 5 scale: much below average, below average, average, above-average, well above average. You are designing, imagining, and realizing your own plan. There is a threshold of I don't care(this is not a deal-breaker). You get to answer the question how good is good enough? Rest with the questions, don't try to answer them instantaneously. With good sleep the subconscious produces inventive Solutions(don't rush). I watch the clips at Double speed 2X. Think backwards, with the end in mind. I know this element or subset is complete when. . . . . Assemble and integrate the design objectives. Budget the elements with least cost in mind. First costs, versus lifetime or ongoing costs. Imagine your project or its elements at 1/3 or 1/2 of your early budget estimates. Record or journalize your thinking everyday. You are going to implement or improve on every idea you have seen or had. Explain your thinking and ideas to others(significant or co-conspirators) , make a timeline and use a calendar. Start yesterday and keep going. P.I.O.S.E.E.

Simplemente Adorable.
I loved it,
Actually an impressive amount of practical solutions for everyday tiny house problems:
the piece de resistance is no doubt the pull up drying rack
but also the huge solar, water and mud room are ingenious...
Bryce, what have you done? I'm addicted to these videos! 😭
Beautiful tiny house and beautiful family,i hope who reads this will bless,Amen🙏🙏🙏
Fantastic home! Just the right size and what a lovely couple they are.
This video has struck a nerve it seems! Good on them for questioning the status quo and taking the path less trod.
Stunning home!! OMG. I love the layout of house and I'm so impressed with the mud room and rack above the fireplace. Seriously cool and well thought project. And to top it all off completely off the grid 🤩🤩🤩🤩 Definitely inspiring. Thanks for sharing 😃
the most special thing about it was the sign...Not Lucky but Blessed ! amen...and the couple and their home is fabulous and very special...Thanks for the tour...from Texas...and Im blessed too !
I could definitely live there & she is beautiful!
crf671 they both are I think. Nice home too
Im from India , Working as civil engineer , i am really profound & amazed to see a sweet home container , though i have in companies at site in container offices , earlier 3- 4 years back i ve had an idea that if i cannot purchase a good Flat or apartment due to high loans interest , volatile market , i had made up in my mind that i'll buy 2000 sqft land , on which i 'll place containers depending upon the services required & nos of family members , as im civil engineer , this thought of mine , today im seeing on this wonderful utube platform by the residents who actually build it , im really very happy to watch the videos & for fraction of minutes i dream;t that it was some what the house which was im looking for , but architecturally, these couples have designed & framed it in very wonderful way , at par to LARGE HOMES built with costly materials , fees , land cost , paying all taxes 7 waiting for months to get your dream homes keys into your hand , is really very hard to think , as if theses things have to be achieved you need to work in india at very high position on very large salary , i conclude that its amazing innovation , style , thoughts utilized in a proactive way , which is really an example setup by the residents for others , that if people are determined & i think theres no need to live in side concrete walls , i hope that 1 fine day i will also do some thing extra ordinary by using salvage material into construction to build my dream home , hats off to theses couples & my sincere regards & best wishes to all their kids , family members & friends , Deepak Soni -9819652992 / 8208725754 , great !!!!!!!!
That drone coverage omg the landscape around the house is beautiful
I love the elegant sectional. I also love the outdoor space with the sail shades. Lovely home.
This was a great video. I loved the nice overhead shots of the house. I discovered your channel nearly 3 years ago with one of your videos on shipping container homes. Ever since I have fallen in love with them and once I am an adult and on my own I hope to buy a small pieces of land and build one myself. Thanks for all your great videos!
Thanks Daniel! All the best with your future container home! :)
I'm going to need the details on that gorgeous couch asap.
What a beautiful couple. They feel so warm and lovely.
I am in love with the concept of Tiny homes, and this house has the space I want. Just the idea of tossing stuff to down size is a reward of simplicity at its best and so purposeful. I get so excited at the idea of my new place soon to come. Searching for land or friends who will share an acre or two :). Everyone on Tiny houses echos that it changes your life you don't need stuff to hide behind or identify with. Beautiful couple and great vibes reflected throughout your home.
whenever you upload a vedio i just sit and watch it .its my dream to live in tiny house i donot know when it will be possible here but may be one day
Thanks so much! In every country the tiny house movement started with a small number of early adopters who built their homes, and then helped advocate to make them legal.
Pratibha Meena u know this is not considered a tiny house
tonia castro i donot knw wats a tiny house i have not seen one i just see videos thats it
Toni Castro why not?
Rdeez this is a home. A tiny home has bear minimums not a full sectional and room to run in. A tiny house is tiny this is way to big they make mobile homes this size
"Not lucky. Blessed." - You must be the most awesome neighbors!
Wow! This is one of the most ideal tiny houses for a family. It’s beautiful and functional enough... Basic yet modern and cozy... 👼❤️👼🥰💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I know I should be commenting on their home but they are a cute couple and she has the nicest blue eyes .
Amazing house and amazing people! Thank you for this great tour. You two are amazing too!
Thank-you Gloria! So glad you enjoyed this episode. 😃
Nicely done. Wise young people.
What a beautiful couple! And an amazing space they have created. That is what family is all about. Also loved that the couch was pointed to the most important part, the outdoors. The TV is there, but it is not the focal point.
I have to say this is one of the nicest container house setups I've seen. I'm not a fan of these types of tiny homes, but can appreciate how they can be made to work as well as the creativity that goes into them.
Beautiful home & area in general, fantastic job! 👍
That woman's eyes though 😍
This is stunning! Perfect space, beautiful layout!
You are people of the future. You make us happy.
You are change, you are energy.
You are with us for ever.
🌟 This is the ONLY tiny/crate house I'd want to be in. Fantastic.
The kids' room lol we had shared rooms long ago: it's all good.
The copper = divine. Sofa, too. Perfect space. Chill couple deciding wise things in tandem. ❤
So beautiful. Simple and functional. Thank you again.
You're welcome! Thank-you for watching.
This is still one of my favourites. Brilliant job.
Your very good at making the hosts feel comfortable, I think that's why I feel this is so good to watch. Also I love the small home designs.
What beautiful eyes the young lady has! Their house is awesome! I have a problem.... can't stop watching the tiny home videos! They are addictive! Lol! Bring on more!
I love every inch of your house. Its so elegant especially the kitchen. And the outdoor picnic table is a bonus.
It’s fantastic! What a great place and seems like a great family! Love how they recycled so much and off the grid. 👍🏽
Don't care for tiny homes but the wife is so beautiful...lucky man.
I'm just being addicted to tiny houses😵😵😵this is the my dream ... I am 18 and I have firm faith that I will have such a tiny home at about 26 😤
Absolutely love this build! Gorgeous layout, gorgeous couple! Inspiring :-)
Thanks Melody! Glad you enjoyed it. 😃
How in the world can I buy those shipping containers??? This is pure genius! I would love to have a place like this so that I could have more money to enjoy life with... and actually have savings!!! Right now I live to pay bills... So proud of this couple for stepping outside of the box and taking FULL ownership of their lives!
Well technically they stepped IN the box 😀
@@SuperLuke9999 I love it!
If you live by a port city you can get them cheap
@@tjude1922 there only a grand or so. There easy to get
What a lovely home in a lovely setting! The home hugs the family that lives in it.
Wow what a cutie couple!! There kids must be gorgeous. Happy they have a nice comfy home for their family.
Really cool setup. I've always said I'd rather have 100 acres and a shed over 1/3 of an acre and a 3000 square foot house...
Well said.
I have both
+Bruce Frisby Cool story bro
Daniel Morgen You're not kidding.
Bruce Frisby I bet you think everything is about you. Ha
I love their good concept & awareness about kids than their tiny house. But I liked most this tiny house even than other tiny houses. I loved this lovely couple.
I am watching this video over and over again!
IT IS GREAT
Aren’t they just so lovely! A great practical functional family home, for a lovely family!
Lovely Container home, they did an amazing job ! Nothing like having peace of mind 🙂
