    First of all I love how simple and inviting this house is. I think they have done an amazing job turning such a confined space into something truly beautiful and open. I understand a tiny home needs to be built around the person who is going to live in it, so no design is wrong design. Personally for me though, the biggest challenge I saw with this if I had to live in a place like this is the open toilet and shower. All that smell and humidity is directly entering the bedroom and I don’t know how that works but it certainly doesn’t look appealing to sleep in. The downstairs though were absolutely stunning, specially the heavy duty stairs with so much character.

      I was thinking the same thing about the bathroom. I love this home but I would need more bathroom privacy personally. Well said about tiny homes being very individual to the people who build/live in them.

    You're design sense is amazing. It shows that it would be as perfect to live in as it is to look at. The drawers under the stairs is brilliant. LOVE the black and white 'check'. Not sure how something so bold can look so calm...but it's just beautiful. The chunky stairs...awesome. The real genius is the bathroom floor. I'm in awe.
    And the stacks of toilet paper as art !!??!!...inspired.
    I could live happily in this space. You've done an amazing job showing that you don't have to sacrifice style and comfort for size.

      @@ExploringAlternatives Thanks for replying, people usually do that ofcourse it could be different with them but I hardly doubt this because people are not so eager to build and build all the time once they've completed a project or two. But ofcourse it could be otherwise with these guys but honestly it's bad for the housing market aswell to constantly move on to other projects and never stay to build the community. It creates unstable market since most of these building end up as rent investments and or short-term housing
