  • This zen-inspired tiny house is a spectacular blend of Japanese and Scandinavian design. Packed full of super clever ideas, creative storage solutions and beautifully built, this home is one you will definitely want to check out!
    Several years ago now, we visited the Zen tiny house in Byron Bay, Australia. There, Nadia and Kester had built a beautiful home for themselves, which later would inspire Leah to build a similar home for herself, this time in Queensland.
    You can find the original tour of the Zen Tiny House Here: • Spectacular Zen Inspir...
    Working together with the original Zen tiny house builder, she has modified the original design and updated it to work for her needs, including some impressive elements such as a cosy sleeping loft for her two children and a wonderful sanctuary bathroom space with bath tub.
    Enjoy the full video tour of this very beautiful and creative tiny house on wheels! To stay up to date with Leah and her tiny house journey, you can follow her on Instagram: / her.tiny.nest

      @@stuartsutherland7664 Hey, Stu! I'm glad you asked such a delicate question... Thanks, man.
      Well, I have not my personal Tiny home yet. The reason is here in Russia, the climate conditions are quite harsh... : )
      For example, my home-city Novosibirsk is located on the border of subarctic and temperate climate zones (i.e., on the border of 2b/3a climate zones with a lowest january temperatures of -40 by Celsius or even a bit lower).
      Also, the snow cover and quite hard frosts here keep, on average, for a half of year, man.
      So the "Tiny homes" movement in our country is not yet much developed as this requires a bit more advanced modern technologies of mobile housing construction, associated with the cost of high-tech production.
      But, man... I really believe that sooner or later the fashion for "Tiny house" movement will spread out to the whole World, because this is more cost-effective for each individual citizen, and in addition, it allows any person to be mobile and not tied to a specific metropolis.
      Cheers, and stay safe. : )

      So do I. I'd love to build a Tiny House, or have one built. These things could solve so many home/housing problems, but there are a couple of caveats. The first is either cost of having the house built by a professional, OR you need to be able to build it yourself. Second caveat is that you need to have a small parcel of land YOU own, or you need to basically "squat" with your house on someone else's land as this woman is doing. Third is there seems to be a stigma about Tiny Houses which is very sad: they're seen under LAW as little more than "glorified RV's"; as such it's difficult to find a place to "park" them?

      ​@@caledoniabeautifuleden8584 I don’t think it's a custody issue as she said she has the boys on weekends and all holidays. As she lives close to the beach (not usually a school location due to higher land costs closer to the beach) so I would guess she lives to far away from the boys school. It’s important when a marriage ends to keep things as close to normal for the children so makes since why they aren’t moved to a school closer to her. And she said it was hard to find a parking spot and she wishes it was more private so I’m sure when she can she will move closer to her boys.

      So, i've been living in a container home since the lockdown (2.30m wide, ~12m long, 2.2m high), and it's actually fine, probably the same as in any other home really. Where you will also want to just 'go out' every once a while, and that is luckily still possible ... Actually the thing i personally notice is that, while this container is about 12m long, i spend most my time on 1/4th of it (behind my computer in the 'working area' ~ also relaxing after work), then some time in 1/4th that is the kitchen with a small table (to cook and eat), and even less time in the bathroom (which divides the space in two). Obviously spend quite some time in bed (out of 24h) but that's mostly with my eyes closed ... it may sound weird but you get used to the space you are in pretty fast, main thing that sometimes bugs me is the low ceiling, but if you check tiny houses, they don't have that issue ... so yeah, it's more then doable :) ...
      And if anything the experience here has convinced me that going Tiny/Small is actually really viable, it's made me re-evaluate my future goal and dreams and for now it seems they are much more attainable then dreaming big, or even just a regular standard house. My current plans are 'roughly' 8.5m long 3.5m wide ~5m high (outside dimensions), inside 8.2x3.2 with two times 2.5m high floors (with a barn style roof, that's like this M shape with the V part bend upwards) (inside dimensions). Upstairs two 3.2x 2.7 rooms (bedroom and computer/workroom) and a small shower/toilet room in the middle , with stairs down. Stairs share the space with the kitchen and underneath the stairs would be the pantry. This then divides the space up into 3.2x3 relaxation space, and a 3.2x2.5 'utility space' (washing, freezer, toiletroom) ... still dabbling about building a shower/toilet downstairs and merely toilet basin upstairs, so those aren't entirely set.
      So, what i would recommend, is to get a tape-measure and just measuring spaces in your house and especially the spaces you find yourself living in most (also measure depths and sizes of the objects in those space). You will probably be amazed about how much 1m^2 (or 3ft) actually is, or 4m^2 (so 2x2).

All red wooden houses, traditional Swedish style. They were all fully equipped with bathroom and kitchen and stove (and mosquito nets haha) and yet pretty small.
