Amazing FOLDING Tiny House Built with Reclaimed Materials - Full Tour
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 бер 2020
- Today we’re taking a tour of this really unique 15 foot long tiny house with wings! The wings are actually two swinging bump-outs that can be opened when the tiny house is parked, and they widen the home from 8.5 feet to 12 feet wide, so it becomes almost square. It’s built with nearly 100% recycled and reclaimed materials, and the beautiful woodwork - including custom doors and windows - was all lovingly handcrafted by Nick and his friend Jay on Salt Spring Island in BC.
You can get in touch with Nick on Instagram if you'd like to find out more about this DIY folding tiny house build (which is currently for sale) and future projects he's going to be working on: / k.knack

A man who plays the violin and builds his own tiny house with an innovative design, wonderful! Love the verdigris green patina roof and swing outs. So ingenious. You are a natural mechanical engineer and artist. Very nice tour, thank you!
Honestly, this is the first one i’ve seen where the owner looked like he would own a tiny home and I love it so much. He looks awesome.
Clever guy that is.
So this is what genius looks like ...inspiring.
@@ziggy33399 I wonder how I could get a mono eyebrow myself. :)
iwilltubeyouall that’s not what I meant. You misunderstood.
@@ziggy33399 or maybe you...;)
Anybody else think this guy looks like his tiny house? Kinda 1970's vibe, the curve of the walls and his eyebrows?!
Yep ;-)...
You mean brow...singular. 😄
He does have quite a unibrow. The Unibrowbomber? He is sweet natured and natutal, artsy vibe. So glad he/they shared this trailer. He is a bit cute and handsome all at the same time.
love it
Fs 🤣
Other than not having a bathroom in it, I LOVE IT.
-Matt
That and dude needs a sip of water.
you just need to stick your bottom out the window haha
Gary Grayson can use dried leafs
Super cute
Quite frankly it could have a bathroom where the deck space is ....and still have a fold down or an attached deck ....so what do people do if the have to use the the bathroom at night ??? Walk to the community bathroom???? pouring down rain ???? ...
Beautiful piece of architecture none the less..
Woah it looks like something out of alice in wonderland! So cool and arty
Or a Hobbit House
Or maybe Harry Potter
You are one smart and creative dude. Thank you for your originality and showing us your beautiful little house
TRUE tiny! I am building one in the spring. It's so nice to see a nod to the true tiny movement rather than the mcmansion tiny houses the past few years.
Amen to that....Such a good feeling.
as a builder , the attention to detail is fantastic, hes put part of his soul into this little gem.
Genius. I think the wedge tip out is one of the best Ideas I've seen. Thankfully we have people like you who not only sit around and think of this stuff, but also have the where-with-all to execute the plan.
Please make and sell plans for this design. You could be responsible for thousands of these being built and you could make some good money from the sale of the plans.
I like wedge tip too but wouldn't it be annoying having to pull it out and in every day and use heavy bolt to secure it, especially when you get older
@@Christoff070 I think he mentioned that the home isn't meant to be travelling all the time. Especially without a bathroom. So you only do it when you want to move, which should be infrequent.
Please do
LOVE this.. reminds me of a tiny, cozy cottage in the woods.. The owner fits the house perfectly..
I've always wondered why so few tiny houses take advantage of collapsibility, when they are so often size constrained by road portability.
Particularly the common low head clearance sleeping mezzanine design: collapse down to meet transportation requirements and expand for headroom when on site.
I agree. As dismally beige-and-silver (tinfoil?) as RVs all are, most have expandable bumpouts that are unnecessarily overengineered and mechanized to appeal to the aging hairspray-and-manicure set. This simple mechanism is brilliant.
do you have links of any available? i'd like to see them. i only know of the "boxabl" and some other company (i forget the name) in cali that is still troubleshooting theirs.
As an RV owner whose bump out frequently leaks... I would never build a tiny house with a bump out in it. Too much maintenance especially if you bring it on the road often
@@klew1354 true, gaskets here are all-important and take special engineering and material choice. Surmountable, however.
Best unibrow ever! Really creative fella...wow.
Nick, I so admire and value your genius, skills, talent and creativity
... and you are simply an all around lovely person!
Brilliant absolutely BRILLIANT. His "salvage" mentality is what I call truly CREATIVE! Thanks EA for bringing us this in responsed to the outpouring of dislike over the last off-grid millionaires pad. Appreciate your attitude toward your subs! :)
Thanks so much Jaim :)
I think 90% of that dislike came from you, didn’t it!? Most of us seem able to appreciate all the hard work, love and inspiration that both of these projects have.
@@empressah888 wow you give me so much credit...I saw at least half the comments were similar to mine so get bent.
@@empressah888 boys, chill out.
Oh, I absolutely love this! I love the smart design but especially the aesthetic of it all !
And I noticed the Kate Bush, "The Dreaming" image/album... I have absolutely loved her for decades, since I saw her performing on Saturday Night Live, way back in the 1970's (I was 15). "The Dreaming" is one of my favorite albums of hers. And the album cover image is beautiful enough to have as wall/shelf art, too. Again, I absolutely love this !!!
YES! Almost the first thing I noticed was The Dreaming! What an amazing space to relax and listen to that album.
This is so cool! What a gem, Encore! Would love to see more of his work!
Who else saw the spark when he plugged the kitchen in 😮 1:25
Didn't catch that but it's not a big deal. Plugs usually do that.
@@Mikayla_Games24 what plugs are you used to?! I've never seen a properly wired plug do that, with or without a ground.
@@matildas3177 ever been in a older house or building? Happens more often than you think.
Guess you gotta consider its all reclaimed
It's because he touched the plug to the side of the sockets instead of straight horizontal and even.
Think like the game of operation.
What a genius architect! I love the style of this tiny home, it's got flair. This man is so free, tweezers are part of the system he left behind. Lead the way, brother.
Woow that house is genius! There’s something whimsical about it that makes it feel it comes from a fairy tale
Most unique and efficient design seen so far....
No bathroom tho
A Sunil I totally agree!
Carpentry and design genius. Bravo sir. 🙌
This is genius!!!! Love it.
These 2 guys are brilliant! The amount of work that went into designing and building this tiny house is insane!!
Nick Knack and Zyl Vardos, these 2 guys are my favorite tiny house artists/engineers. So inspiring. Thank you guys for making the world a better place.
For the low low price of reclaimed + labor, it moves, it swings - it even makes (vocal) fries too! ;)
Lack of bathroom notwithstanding, would love to spend a rainy day in there with a nice book. Incredibly cozy looking!
I haven't seen a waistcoat like that since 1969.
Where were you in 1969 that you saw that?
He looks like Jerry Garcia.
@@Kube_Dog he was at home. Watching TV
I like that casual-vest look and hope it comes back into common fashion for guys. Gives an extra accessory personalization factor aside from scarves/ties and socks.
aequoria ...more like Frank Zappa
Wow 😮 the wings are an amazing idea. It always amazes me how resourceful people can be.
Aww Nick I wanna hug you. You are such a special soul🌞🌻. Your house is so beautiful. Wishing you happiness always!!!
This might be one of my favorite tiny houses ever! And I go down the tiny rabbit hole often!
Lol.Wow! RV slide outs are nothing compared to this! We were thinking about building a tiny house but after weighing our options, we renovated a 21 year old class a motorhome; We saved up some money, quit our jobs and now we travel and resell full time for a living. Changed our lives!
Love it. It looks so cosy and comfortable, a real home that feels like a hug lol.
Genius . He made such an amazing house with those simple drawing and reclaimed materials.
Unique, quality craftsmanship, and no bank loan! Truly a throw-back to the origins of the tiny house movement!
C’est un système ingénieux.
Merci pour le partage.
Prenez bien soin de vous même.
Awe inspiring. Hope Nick has built Tiny Homes with bathrooms too.
A amazing tiny home. Much thought went into this
I get a real good feel about this man. His house is stunning and totally fits to the beautiful surroundings. Love it....I’ll be back to visit again. Thank you kindly Steph x
This is my favourite tiny home so far after years of looking at them. I'm not a wannabe I do have a tiny home on wheels which I have loved for the last twenty years. I do have a problem though, sooner or later she'll not pass the MOT and then what will I do. I would love to put her on blocks on a tiny piece of land and see my days out there because she is part of me and she has seen me through some bad times. As a home, she has never let me down once.
I absolutely adore this build! I’ve always loved the bump outs in fancy rvs, and have wanted to add some to my own plans. Thank you so much for bringing us more positivity, especially in this crazy time ❤️
This build makes me wonder why not many other builds have bump-outs. That's just great space efficiency!
Because it performs poorly against rain and is difficult to insulate correctly.
Need two men to operate
Salt Spring Island (B.C., Canada) is gorgeous. A perfect lil'home and location.🤩
Such a unique lil treasure
Oh I am so in love with this adorable build. How fabulous. He is too brilliant for words. It’s so beautiful. And so clever.💖
This is what it's all about. Building your own from pure imagination.
Such a clever design! Love the finish throughout, with recycled/refurbished materials. Fabulous!
Very smart concept! Salt Spring Island is beautiful, they are very lucky to be able to have tiny houses, Vancouver and around is a huge NO.
Do you know if real estate is very pricey here? What can a small 1/2 acre of land go for?
@Cal 20 Sailor I'm curious too, I don't even live in the North America. Lol it's not about the money lol
jaim haas so sorry somehow I didn’t see your question. I moved around here recently, I am not on salt spring island but I think 1/2 an acre on an island close to Vancouver would go for minimum 500k, depending on ocean view, etc. But totally unaffordable.
Absolutely beautiful. Awesome. Genius design.
So creative and so much hard work! I saw a comment below about his voice. Turns out he’s an amazing singer! Check out Superfeather! Had my foot tapping and I loved their 70’s vibe 💜👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Brilliant design! Wow I’m impressed 😮👍👍
This is just clever. The no bathroom thing is the only drawback, although I appreciate your reasons for not having one.
If he goes to a RV site or camping grounds most of those has public showers and toilets.
Very Cool, love the woodwork and the colors!! The only thing it’s missing is a bathroom!!! Very Ingenious....
Amazing!
Brilliant!
Creative!
Dynamic!
♥️🎞👍🏻🌿🏚
Super nice little home. I appreciate you showing it to us.🌸💐🌸
Absolutely Gorgeous.
What a lovely design.
What a brilliant design! It looks SO cozy, and I love that it's pretty much all salvaged materials! Wish you were in Ontario, Nick! 😊 Beautiful jo . And lovely curved bench.
Lovely spacious home n such a gentleman he is
Such a cute house....the painting above the stove is beautiful...van gogh vibes
What a clever guy with his designs.
Gorgeous , simple, classic and practical , 10/10 !
Nick is an architect as much as a builder. Brilliant. Excellent design.
What a lovely home!
One word I can say is. . . .AMAZING!!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
I loved the swing bump out. Very good idea.
The kate bush dreaming poster on the wall i love this guy
Omg, I‘m in love with this, great idea, and it looks so beautiful!
Well done!
Thanks for sharing
That guy's unibrow should have it's own Instagram! It's fantastic!!!
So ingenuous and thoughtful. And welcoming too! Reminds me of my uncle Ralph, in looks and mannerisms. And, BTW, my uncle was an architect too, with similar architectural sensibilities. All the best!
This is the 2nd of your tiny house videos I've watched Nick. I think your designs are truly wonderful. 💕
This is the best little shed! Almost like a gypsy van with a real rugged man's touch. Very nice!
Amazing home. I feel relaxed just viewing it. Don't miss the bathroom at.
I love this little house so much! It would be great to have this cozy little place in a large backyard as a place to escape to, or as a guess house, then go inside the main house whenever to the restroom. Perfect!
Breathtaking. What an amazing idea and what a cool guy!
One of the coolest things I've ever seen... Super sweet.
Love it. All it needs is a collapsible table at the end seat. Very cute and comfortable for one person.
I'd love to see a slightly bigger one built on this idea, but including a bathroom...I like my creature comforts! 😊 Thank you for insulating!! Some houses aren't insulated...as someone who has lived in the mountains all my life, insulation is mandatory! Also love the woodstoves in each house!
This is beyond cool, really impressive design.
He is a vey creative and intelligent man his tiny home is truly unique🤗
that's really cool design - a bump out verses a modern rv slide out.
You did an excellent job making that
Sooo cool. Love it. Very clever how it pulls out, and then you have more space. I really think everyone deserves the right to build their own home, wherever that can be.
This is absolute gorgeous ....very well laid out too ....I could see myself living in this ❤️
The most unique tiny house I've ever seen
Good heavens! This is just too fantastically, clever. Mary he has just come over from the 70s to demonstrate.
Very original design
The kitchen area is mad genius!
I love what the stuff this man builds, it's so amazing and unique! I also love how he salvaged all the material.
I never learned how to build things traditionally; like from scratch going to the hardware and lumber stores to get the materials and build; but I've always felt I had a little knack for reusing things that are already built; like turning a coffee table into a bed w/ storage underneath, or ripping apart bunk beds and turning them into something else, etc.
I admire this guy's vision and ability to look at things and see something else.
WOW, STUNNING!!!!
You did an amazing job, offered wondered why we didn't see bumpouts on tiny homes. It has got to be one of my favorite design ideas I've seen in a long time. The internal water gutters are ingenious.
Very Creative Mr. Nick. Nice sice for a retire person to travels. Congratulations sir!
Another Beautiful tiny house!!😊😊
A real work of art.
Wow, this thing is amazing! Great video work.
Saw this on Reddit and its SO COOL.
This tiny home is absolutely beautiful! I love the design and creativity!
It is a very clever design, even without a bathroom. He put a lot of thought in designing this tiny house! 💕
Your little folding house is Very Cool. Very ingenious! 💜
Looks like a gingerbread house
👍🤗😍
Very nice. I love the creativity seen here.
