This weeks episode is something a bit different! This beautifully designed shipping container home is a bit larger than the ones we normally feature on the channel, but we thought the design was definitely something you’d want to see! Be sure to let us know in the comments if you’d like to see more homes like this one. Thanks for watching, and if you do enjoy the video please support us by liking, commenting and sharing this video with your friends. Cheers!
I’ll take a moment to appreciate Bryce anytime-his positivity and enthusiasm make every video fun. Sometimes I learn more than others, sometimes I simply appreciate the subjects efforts. I agree he’s an exceptional interviewer and I love, love, his final comments...I’m always smiling at the end. (Often find I’m seriously thinking🤔😳)
Yes I love his energy normally, but for this video it seemed a bit fake and overdone. Bryce, it's okay if you don't love the house, don't feel the need to fake it. I didn't love this one either but it's worth seeing still.
I don't mind seeing more container homes. I love how everything in this home is designed to connect the family, and also connects the family to nature. The luxury of this home is in its simplicity. Stunning!
The feature I appreciated the most internally and externally is how the change in floor levels provide extra seating without the need for extra furniture.
I agree that the bench seating along floor levels is the most interesting part of the house. For comfort I think a cushion would be very much appreciated. Sitting on a flat timber floor wouldn't be comfortable for a dinner party. I almost wonder whether this is part of the design, to make the dining table deliberately uncomfortable in order to encourage people to get up and move to the lounge area. The change in floor levels is quite extreme, it almost appears as if it could create safety issues for walking in the dark, or people with less mobility. At 4:59 there is a vertical drop which looks like at least 30-45cm, immediately outside a sliding door to the living room. I would hate to have a guest fall down there by accident and injure themselves! Elderly people may have trouble with those stairs up to the granny flat, aka "guest pod." Ar 12:59 you can see six stairs with a 90 degree turn and no hand rail. It would be very simple to have extended the deck to meet up with the driveway, or perhaps put a ramp in.
One should consider whether or not to use the multi-level strongly, as it has more potential of tripping and falling, especially if one has crutches for awhile, is elderly, or a wheelchair.
Even though it's not exactly a tiny home, I really love how you find such interesting places to showcase. So would definitely love to see more stuff like this on the channel!
Yes! Tiny homes are interesting, but not always practical. I like watching videos about them for space saving ideas, and seeing how little people need to be happy. But small home design is more realistic for me - and I'm glad these alternative homes are being included! Love it!
I agree, this is pushing on the "tiny home" spectrum to the limit, but it is still definitely up there and I am very interested in finding more similar quality content from this channel. Great video.
Given they are ready to house ten people it still is a tiny footprint per person, ain't it? Could also be a nice way to cheat oneself into more space than exactly tiny would "allow", footprintwise. But still, very cozy architecture and a lot of room out of a small footprint.
You guys deserve a Netflix deal or something 😂 this channel is AMAZING. Keep up the great work finding these awesome people and sharing such lovely, intelligently designed homes. You guys have really helped me form concrete ideas for my own family’s future by sharing what others are doing in the tiny house movement. Thank you!
I love it! Too minimalist for me as it is but I could turn that space into a warm gorgeous home. It needs a fire place! It's probably the best container home I have ever seen.
This is a very educated man who has invested his life in making a huge impact on his family of 10. A lot of sacrifices he had to make to provide this family home and he has a studio sweet. Whoever has something to say turn your mom’s TV off from her basement and don’t watch it. Uplift our men!!!!
When YT recommends other tiny house channels, and I try to get into them, I can't. Not because they're bad, but this particular channel has such a friendly, relaxed and welcoming style. 😄
I'm a young Pre-Trade Carpentry Student in NZ, and I often get into discussions about tiny/small homes, and alternative building techniques (including shipping containers) with one of my tutors. Just last week, I asked him if a shipping container being insulated from the outside, in order to save precious interior space, was a viable option. He had never even thought or heard of the idea, but was intrigued none the less. Almost as if by magic, this video comes along and mentions that this is EXACTLY what had been done during this build. This channel has time and again proven to be both inspirational and educational; and I'm proud to say that I've been a long time subscriber. Absolutely love the content you guys produce, and seeing the diversity on those whom you visit.
The fact that your tutor had never thought or heard of this concept is shocking! They're supposed to stay on top of new trends and techniques in their field. Container homes started a while ago... It's good that you were open-minded and forward-thinking.
Not in trades, but I'm absolutely fascinated by affordable green homes. (That concept is an oxymoron in SoCal where anything environmental friendly costs 10xs higher than our already outrageous construction costs.) Still, I like to learn about passive home design and smart insulation that protects structures from blistering heat and sun. Off the grid living is also a big interest. Excellent content!!!
This guy is really a responsible person. he is very much morally educated. He talked about human interactions, sustainability, carbon footprints and simple living and what not. He has a good vison for the future. We need more of such people. I like this show, but i like this particular video. 👍🙏.
I hate drones and their invasive nature BUT, I HAVE TO SAY that THIS is what they were meant for! The shots you two get add infinitely to the camerawork and the video clip quality and even the story. The pulling up into the sky and looking down on the area gives so much more visual depth and value. And, you do it so respectfully. I'm grateful to see all of these wonderful examples of building design and people's creative dreams come to life.
This is an absolutely incredible home. It might be my favourite one I've seen on this channel. It's exactly the sort of thing I want to build! I love the colour scheme, and the minimal aesthetic. That communal area is EVERYTHING. I know this channel is meant to be about tiny homes, but I love seeing some of these bigger homes that are still small and still take tiny house design elements. I'd love to see more of this! I don't know that I could do a tiny house, but I could definitely do something like this!
the people who own tiny houses are the simplest people and have the most beautiful minds. they appreciate nature and are fully aware of the bad influence of the materialistic world.
I am not lying, whenever I stress out because of any reason I think of This channel's videos, there's a strange relief watching these magical videos and kudos to the enthusiasm and positive vibes of Mr. Bryce, always cheerful :)
Love how Bryce remains enthusiastic and patient when listening to home owners over-explain something he has seen countless times...”and next we have the bathroom!”
All the negative comments here are absurd. Those who are critical about the homeowner, his mannerisms, the design, the price, the decor etc should just keep scrolling along. This was what the homeowner chose. Everyone has different tastes in what they want - that's what keeps life interesting. If we all built the same home, used the same decor, life would be truly boring. That said, I love the indoor/outdoor design & various levels of this gorgeous container home.
I was pretty confused when he talked about taking advantage of solar gain by having a glass wall on the North side. North side?! Then I remembered: Southern hemisphere. I didn’t know I was a northern hemisphere chauvanist.
They don’t call Australia the continent down under for no reason. 😊 Everything is upside down or back to front to the northern hemisphere. As a migrant, now an Australian it takes a bit of getting used to, but believe me once you’ve had a taste there is no going back.
Hasn't shipping container design come a long way ? To pass all the stringent regulatory processes/red tape inherent in modern builds shows a seachange in the typically conservative building bureaucracy especially with the strict protocols employed in developed countries like Australia. Finally the younger, greener generation has infiltrated such professional agencies. A decade ago this would have been impossible. This place is stunning and the choice of beautiful timber-framed doors and windows sustainably manufactured really warms up the wonderful industrial aesthetic. Once again you have both produced a brilliant vlog (more like a professional "show") highlighting cutting edge small, sustainable living options. It would have been the icing on the cake to see an off-grid solar array on this lovely home. Thank you for posting. Yes ... more content like this as long as you keep to your "tiny" roots occasionally.
O my gosh @JoshuaBenton! We felt the same way! Incredible design, vision & spirit just like you said! Well said! When we can visualize it... It often will turn out better then we imagined.
This is my fav channel. My country doesn’t allow this sort of houses. Otherwise will take a challenge to make it a reality. Thanks for all the encouragement and videos
Out of my reach but simply the most beautiful shipping container home I have seen yet. Even in a simpler setup, insulating the outside of the container instead of the inside has great merit.
I think it would be great to have both of these guys on a show describing everyday things that go past slowly on a conveyor belt. Bryce can be amazed at everything and point out how well it celebrates the space, and Simon can describe how - because he's a minimalist - the objects really help his family to reconnect with nature through good design. A vegetable peeler, a mismatched pair of school socks, a galvanized coathanger, a single turnip growing in a pot. Absurdist humour with heart. 😆
No books No art No personal items No privacy coverings for the windows For me this is such a sterile and cold looking environment and I can’t imagine feeling comfortable in a place like this. I watch, listen and enjoy reading comments from people who have opposite viewpoints.
Thanks for sharing, never heard of the chrome thing so lesson learned. Now, part of this simple lifestyle for me is more financial freedom (need less = need less financial resources = gain more free time to enjoy what matters) so I’m trying to do similar as this person so as beautiful as their home is it’s too expensive overall. Thank you so much for all your videos that have inspired me to start planning for a better, simpler future before my kids get much older.
The simplicity of the bathroom layout is fantastic. It also looks simple to make compared to long days of grout and tile. The kitchen layout is great. I really like how they incorporated the laundry machine in there. The dropped floor in front creating seating all around is a nice touch too.
Stunning design. Really, really beautifully designed and executed. It DOES make me sad to see such a perfect house for large (and small!) modern paintings... and yet ... ... ... crickets/visual silence/ n o t h i n g . . . I notice the lack of paintings in many, many houses. Do people not like Art anymore? My heart is breaking. Once again, Bryce and Rasa, you have outdone yourselves (and lovely camerawork!). I LOVE your videos, so much so that it always feels like it's longer than a week between them and I am so excited to see them when they arrive. I usually sit and have breakfast while watching, ritualistically and happily! Thank you!!!
Isn't that the truth @LizStohlman! We were like... YESSSSS when Bryce said that! It's sooo true! We have been travelling the past two years, and stayed in some beautifully designed places, and some real let downs. It matters BIG time. Especially when you work from "home"... Or in our case an Airbnb...
This looks like something hubby & I can AFFORD & achieve (we could cut costs of doing a lot of the work ourselves, which we will have to LEARN how to do), it is a STUNNING home but to make it slightly larger thinking maybe to 40's at the front & 2 at the back, now just to source & transport them. BEAUTIFUL job...
It's funny how with almost every home, with almost every video, I always think: -This has to be in my top 3 Tiny/small houses... AND then I see other and another, almost all of them are great. 😀🙂🤗 This one Is super beautiful. AND my mind was blown away by the amount of thought and consciousness put into this home You are a great, polite and enthusiast interviewer. The owner of the house was a very good talker and it was showed how much he is proud of this home.
I also love how Bryce interviews SO MANY different kinds of people on this channel!!! He really lets their personality shine and idk why but I love hearing people's stories on why they love their spaces and are passionate about design. This guy rocked it.
I have watched some other channel about tiny houses, but yours is still my favorite until now. You're very detailed on interviewing the owner, not only the interior (house tour), but also the exterior, and the lifestyle and the big ideas behind it. Your channel really has inspired me to have tiny house someday.
Achyut Arjun Me too. Reminded me of my in-laws. Lol. My father in law had a bad fall and needed hip surgery, which meant he couldn’t walk upstairs to his bedroom so he slept in the downstairs bedroom. They had a 3 story house, the third floor (the bottom one) was like a studio apartment. Because of him not able to get around most of the house they ended up selling it (they lived there for 25 years) and buying a one story home. And guess what ... he’s still sleeping in a different bedroom from his wife... 😆 .. Makes no sense to me.. 🤔🤷🏻♀️
That's because he's yet another privilege person who lives this lifestyle because he can not because it truly benefits him That's what this whole movement has seemed to turn into
I've seen many containers houses; many trying to hide that are containers houses. This is by far one's that trying to show that is a container house( and is not shy showing this proudly) in it's best beauty and clever/smart good use of design comes in mind as best applied here. Congratz for the lovely build u have.
I’m addicted to watching videos on your channel! Hats off to Bryce for being such a patient and great host. I’m inspired to build my own tiny house now!
Bryce I love your work and how you bring these people together. I have been watching tiny houses for 20 years and I keep coming back to your channel because you bring warmth in the presentations. Keep up the great work. Thanks for doing this for humanity.
Yup! Although, here in Florida, I've seen on the news that people have been visited by alligators. Where I'm at, the most I've seen is are snakes, yikes!
Yeah I was thrilled too when I saw them! O.O Imagine waking up, taking a cup of tea outside, getting into the hammock and just watching the kangaroos silently...
I'd love to live in Florida minus the hurricanes and alligators. Being afraid of my pets or kids being eaten by a giant reptile it too prehistoric for me lol. Yes to lounge in a hammock and watch the kangaroos in the sunset with a cup of tea would be amazing 😍😍
Kangaroos are fine at a distance but up close they will kick your butt in big way lol. They front feet have huge claws that are razor sharp and they can lean back on their tail and use their back legs to kick the crap out of you lol. So like most animals in the wild need to be avoided lol. Of course the babies are so darn cute though lol
Wow, Simon (the owner) seriously knows how to teach. I think he managed to answer questions and conversation stoppers that many of us viewers were thinking while watching this. Thank you for such detailed info! Even though everyone’s ‘style’ is different, we get to learn and take little pieces of what we personally ‘connect’ with and incorporate it into our future design with shipping containers. Bryce, I love your natural enthusiasm. Truly happy to have stumbled on your channel while searching for small space designs. 🤓🤙🏼
I could absolutely live here but I don’t like dust getting on everything so all those open wardrobes and kitchen units would be a no no for me. Beautifully presented as usual by the interviewer! Thank you 🙏💖
Impressive video. I started a bit late (graduated from my doctorate program at age 30 in 2016 with 170k in school loan debt). Managed to pay off my debt by 2019 and currently have a house and 250k total in investments (combo of profit share, 401k and a brokerage account). I'm not very knowledgeable in investing, so I just have my investing currently in index funds mainly voo, but have been putting a lot into schd the past few months. I dunno if that's the optimal strategy, but psychologically it is very set it and forget it, and prevents me from obsessing over individual stock performance.
Instead of using different brokerage accounts to purchase index funds or individual stock, compare your age(s) and how much time you have estimated till retirement, you can also opt to consulting/working with a fund manager/advisor for an “optimal strategy” to outperform the bear market.

I really like how the kids room just had beds, that they had a play room with their things closer to the family area. It really helps with kids nowadays who would rather just hang out in their room all day watching tv, playing video games, etc., it really keeps them out of the room to be out in their home doing things and outside. When my kids were younger the home we lived in had 2 living rooms, one was on their side of the house. I really wanted them to be out of their room more, hanging out with each other doing things, so I set up there living room with craft table and shelves, water paints, bracelet making, many things that they would enjoy doing that wasn’t revolved around a tv.
Very cool informative video! Super cool hearing the different techniques of insulating the container. This is GOLD for me right now as I really want to build a container home in the Caribbean.
Cheers Jake! Really glad you enjoyed this episode. Be sure to let me know how you get on with building your container home in the Caribbean! I would love to travel there to film some episodes. :)
Thank you soo much bryce...just because of your youtube channel now tiny house is not just the tiny house for me it becomes my dream house. I love all your videos and some of them i have watched twice or thrice. You are such h positive man and i found your channel very unique and good. Thank you once again for sharing your views n visits for such a beautiful houses with us.
This is definitely the most gorgeous shipping container home we have ever seem. Most people who build with shipping containers stay within the lines, and don't cut openings in walls or expand into other spaces. Very unique design. Gorgeous flow, and use of indoor & outdoor spaces. LOVE LOVE Love It! Thanks for sharing Bryce @LivingBigInATinyHouse! - Erin + Brian too
It's also very clever how the ends of some of the containers were used as doors to storage, like a storage unit. This guy, or whoever from his company is really a good engineer/designer. It appears like the house is mostly windows, structure and insulation enclosing the shipping containers that function as structural pieces to build out the interior. This is by far the nicest shipping container design I've ever seen, plus it looks very efficient and relatively inexpensive. Great video!
To@@sarahthewho5374 Hello Sarah. Jacob and ThatGuy.. are trolls. They must have made upwards of a dozen negative comments on this video alone - none of any constructive value They are pitiable and thus to be ignored here as, in all likelihood, they are by all who know them in real life.
I've seen a video where an expert basically dismantled the whole philosophy behind shipping containers - for many of the reasons stated here. She said, build with wood - it is more environmentally friendly and sustainable, and less wasteful in terms of materials, heating etc.
This weeks episode is something a bit different! This beautifully designed shipping container home is a bit larger than the ones we normally feature on the channel, but we thought the design was definitely something you’d want to see! Be sure to let us know in the comments if you’d like to see more homes like this one.

This is my fav channel. My country doesn’t allow this sort of houses. Otherwise will take a challenge to make it a reality. Thanks for all the encouragement and videos
From Tanzania with love. I usually watch a new episode every Sunday or Saturday evening.
I just can't get enough of what you're doing.
Out of my reach but simply the most beautiful shipping container home I have seen yet. Even in a simpler setup, insulating the outside of the container instead of the inside has great merit.
This home is quite possibly my favorite of all the other homes you've profiled on your channel. Keep up the excellent work, Bryce and Rasa!
Thanks Jay!
I think it would be great to have both of these guys on a show describing everyday things that go past slowly on a conveyor belt. Bryce can be amazed at everything and point out how well it celebrates the space, and Simon can describe how - because he's a minimalist - the objects really help his family to reconnect with nature through good design. A vegetable peeler, a mismatched pair of school socks, a galvanized coathanger, a single turnip growing in a pot. Absurdist humour with heart. 😆
No books
No art
No personal items
No privacy coverings for the windows
For me this is such a sterile and cold looking environment and I can’t imagine feeling comfortable in a place like this. I watch, listen and enjoy reading comments from people who have opposite viewpoints.
Thanks for sharing, never heard of the chrome thing so lesson learned. Now, part of this simple lifestyle for me is more financial freedom (need less = need less financial resources = gain more free time to enjoy what matters) so I’m trying to do similar as this person so as beautiful as their home is it’s too expensive overall. Thank you so much for all your videos that have inspired me to start planning for a better, simpler future before my kids get much older.
The simplicity of the bathroom layout is fantastic. It also looks simple to make compared to long days of grout and tile.
The kitchen layout is great. I really like how they incorporated the laundry machine in there. The dropped floor in front creating seating all around is a nice touch too.
Stunning design. Really, really beautifully designed and executed. It DOES make me sad to see such a perfect house for large (and small!) modern paintings... and yet ... ... ... crickets/visual silence/ n o t h i n g . . . I notice the lack of paintings in many, many houses. Do people not like Art anymore? My heart is breaking. Once again, Bryce and Rasa, you have outdone yourselves (and lovely camerawork!). I LOVE your videos, so much so that it always feels like it's longer than a week between them and I am so excited to see them when they arrive. I usually sit and have breakfast while watching, ritualistically and happily! Thank you!!!
Good point. I'd definitely have some beautiful photos framed or a great collection of books.
@@j.flaner8506 Books!!! Yes!!! ... (and p a i n t i n g s )
“Good design can change the way we live”
Isn't that the truth @LizStohlman! We were like... YESSSSS when Bryce said that! It's sooo true! We have been travelling the past two years, and stayed in some beautifully designed places, and some real let downs. It matters BIG time. Especially when you work from "home"... Or in our case an Airbnb...
Well if that's what your seeking, you won't find it in this video
This looks like something hubby & I can AFFORD & achieve (we could cut costs of doing a lot of the work ourselves, which we will have to LEARN how to do), it is a STUNNING home but to make it slightly larger thinking maybe to 40's at the front & 2 at the back, now just to source & transport them. BEAUTIFUL job...
So far this is the best container house for a family living
It's funny how with almost every home, with almost every video, I always think:
-This has to be in my top 3 Tiny/small houses...
AND then I see other and another, almost all of them are great. 😀🙂🤗
This one Is super beautiful. AND my mind was blown away by the amount of thought and consciousness put into this home
You are a great, polite and enthusiast interviewer. The owner of the house was a very good talker and it was showed how much he is proud of this home.
I also love how Bryce interviews SO MANY different kinds of people on this channel!!! He really lets their personality shine and idk why but I love hearing people's stories on why they love their spaces and are passionate about design. This guy rocked it.
I love how the kangaroos were staring at the drone in confusion. My favourite moment, for sure. They were all "What the heck is that?!"
Filming kangaroos with my drone is a new Australian hobby for me.
Which part was that? Haha I might have missed it!
Milla Suini 15:26 !
We love feeding them by hand at Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. If you haven't tried that, you should next time you're in Brisbane. :)
I was waiting for one to jump and try and catch it 😁.
This is the future of hospitality market
From all tiny house channels i love this one the most because of the music. (and the on the nose questions you ask - that need to be asked!)
I have watched some other channel about tiny houses, but yours is still my favorite until now. You're very detailed on interviewing the owner, not only the interior (house tour), but also the exterior, and the lifestyle and the big ideas behind it.
Your channel really has inspired me to have tiny house someday.
This channel is such an inspiration for sustainable living.
"I like to sleep in different bedrooms" got me!! 😂😂
Achyut Arjun Me too. Reminded me of my in-laws. Lol. My father in law had a bad fall and needed hip surgery, which meant he couldn’t walk upstairs to his bedroom so he slept in the downstairs bedroom. They had a 3 story house, the third floor (the bottom one) was like a studio apartment. Because of him not able to get around most of the house they ended up selling it (they lived there for 25 years) and buying a one story home. And guess what ... he’s still sleeping in a different bedroom from his wife... 😆 .. Makes no sense to me.. 🤔🤷🏻♀️
Same. I had to pause the vid and look down on comments after that.
I was like is he for real 😳 then i was like you got me lol 😂
That's because he's yet another privilege person who lives this lifestyle because he can not because it truly benefits him That's what this whole movement has seemed to turn into
@@ninewectawski1935 yeah sadly though that wasn't his reason for doing so
I've seen many containers houses; many trying to hide that are containers houses.
This is by far one's that trying to show that is a container house( and is not shy showing this proudly) in it's best beauty and clever/smart good use of design comes in mind as best applied here.
Congratz for the lovely build u have.
Beautiful tiny home. If I owned it I would add more comfy seating for reading nooks or just relaxing in a different conversation area.
Utilizing something that's already built for strength and durability is genius. I love this home.
Absolutely remarkable how warm and comforting plain "industrial" materials can be if assembled with love and skill.
I’m addicted to watching videos on your channel! Hats off to Bryce for being such a patient and great host. I’m inspired to build my own tiny house now!
The more I watched videos from this channel...the more craziest I'm on loving tiny house...
Bryce I love your work and how you bring these people together. I have been watching tiny houses for 20 years and I keep coming back to your channel because you bring warmth in the presentations. Keep up the great work. Thanks for doing this for humanity.
This is on Trending! Congrats! I've been following this channel forever it's about time it gets the love it deserves!
They have kangaroos just hanging out!!!! Mean while I'm over here in the U.S. getting excited over squirrels.
Yup! Although, here in Florida, I've seen on the news that people have been visited by alligators. Where I'm at, the most I've seen is are snakes, yikes!
Yeah I was thrilled too when I saw them! O.O Imagine waking up, taking a cup of tea outside, getting into the hammock and just watching the kangaroos silently...
I'd love to live in Florida minus the hurricanes and alligators. Being afraid of my pets or kids being eaten by a giant reptile it too prehistoric for me lol. Yes to lounge in a hammock and watch the kangaroos in the sunset with a cup of tea would be amazing 😍😍
Kangaroos are fine at a distance but up close they will kick your butt in big way lol. They front feet have huge claws that are razor sharp and they can lean back on their tail and use their back legs to kick the crap out of you lol. So like most animals in the wild need to be avoided lol. Of course the babies are so darn cute though lol
Hahahahahaha.....lmao!!!!!hahahahaha
Wow, Simon (the owner) seriously knows how to teach. I think he managed to answer questions and conversation stoppers that many of us viewers were thinking while watching this. Thank you for such detailed info! Even though everyone’s ‘style’ is different, we get to learn and take little pieces of what we personally ‘connect’ with and incorporate it into our future design with shipping containers.
Bryce, I love your natural enthusiasm. Truly happy to have stumbled on your channel while searching for small space designs. 🤓🤙🏼
Glad i found this channel, very interesting. The owner is very good with words. He was very articulate and well spoken in his presentation.
Love the contrast of dark red wood against the blue-grey cladding. Lots of beautiful big windows and big shady deck are great.
LOL
"The sharks are innocent, the surfers are innocent, the guilty party is ignorance."
You just *had* to linger on that T-shirt, right? 🤣
100% haha. Went back 2x to make sure I'd read correctly.
But it's true, people think of sharks as evil, but they're an important part of the ecosystem, and some shark species are overfished for their fins 😢
@@lalakuma9 sobs
I could absolutely live here but I don’t like dust getting on everything so all those open wardrobes and kitchen units would be a no no for me. Beautifully presented as usual by the interviewer! Thank you 🙏💖
Impressive video. I started a bit late (graduated from my doctorate program at age 30 in 2016 with 170k in school loan debt). Managed to pay off my debt by 2019 and currently have a house and 250k total in investments (combo of profit share, 401k and a brokerage account). I'm not very knowledgeable in investing, so I just have my investing currently in index funds mainly voo, but have been putting a lot into schd the past few months. I dunno if that's the optimal strategy, but psychologically it is very set it and forget it, and prevents me from obsessing over individual stock performance.
I’m thinking of doing the same but not sure if I should use different brokerage accounts? Just Curious. Pros and cons ?
Instead of using different brokerage accounts to purchase index funds or individual stock, compare your age(s) and how much time you have estimated till retirement, you can also opt to consulting/working with a fund manager/advisor for an “optimal strategy” to outperform the bear market.
@@marcelrobert9569 Please tell me how I can think I have such skills. My funds are being murdered by inflation, therefore I'm looking for a more profitable investing strategy to put

Great video and beautiful home!! What was the U.S. cost for building this home? $350,000?
I really like how the kids room just had beds, that they had a play room with their things closer to the family area. It really helps with kids nowadays who would rather just hang out in their room all day watching tv, playing video games, etc., it really keeps them out of the room to be out in their home doing things and outside.
When my kids were younger the home we lived in had 2 living rooms, one was on their side of the house. I really wanted them to be out of their room more, hanging out with each other doing things, so I set up there living room with craft table and shelves, water paints, bracelet making, many things that they would enjoy doing that wasn’t revolved around a tv.
It's hard to believe he wasn't the architect. Amazing house.
Absolutely phenomenal job with the filming, editing, interaction & information.
He knocks it out of the box EVERY TIME. Love this channel.
Thank you!
Living Big In A Tiny House Thank you, friends! Can’t wait to show my own tiny home on here when it’s finished.
J. Flaner Absolutely agreed. It’s one of the only channels I have the bells on for.
Very cool informative video! Super cool hearing the different techniques of insulating the container. This is GOLD for me right now as I really want to build a container home in the Caribbean.
Cheers Jake! Really glad you enjoyed this episode. Be sure to let me know how you get on with building your container home in the Caribbean! I would love to travel there to film some episodes. :)
@@livingbig haha we would LOVE to have ya! Maybe even get you out for a Kiteboarding session! 😉🤙🏻
@@JakeKelsick Now you're talking! Lets make it happen!
I agree. Insulation on the outside to maximize indoor space is genius.
Just commenting so I can stay notified on this comment. Love from the Caribbean as well
Great to see something a little different. Can't wait for this one. Cheers Bryce!! Thanks as always.
Thanks Andy! :)
I can sum it up in one word, Dynamic, clarity of vision, key, thank you for sharing, well done.
Thank you soo much bryce...just because of your youtube channel now tiny house is not just the tiny house for me it becomes my dream house. I love all your videos and some of them i have watched twice or thrice. You are such h positive man and i found your channel very unique and good. Thank you once again for sharing your views n visits for such a beautiful houses with us.
Can I tell you how much I love this show. woooooooow. Also that guy was well-spoken AF. so great. One day I'm gna be on this show
This is definitely the most gorgeous shipping container home we have ever seem. Most people who build with shipping containers stay within the lines, and don't cut openings in walls or expand into other spaces. Very unique design. Gorgeous flow, and use of indoor & outdoor spaces. LOVE LOVE Love It! Thanks for sharing Bryce @LivingBigInATinyHouse! - Erin + Brian too
Really like this HOME , not a cook cutter steel box. Lol
I'm a carpenter that lives to see original ideas put to projects. Thumbs up !!
One of my favourite container homes ever.
I don't care for container home but have to say lately my mind is kinda changing and I do love they lay out! Love the Granny Pod lol ❤
It's also very clever how the ends of some of the containers were used as doors to storage, like a storage unit. This guy, or whoever from his company is really a good engineer/designer. It appears like the house is mostly windows, structure and insulation enclosing the shipping containers that function as structural pieces to build out the interior. This is by far the nicest shipping container design I've ever seen, plus it looks very efficient and relatively inexpensive. Great video!
Thx for an example of a creatively designed minimalist tiny mansion. Using Shipping Containers as the building blocks...
The slippers/no outside shoes + "Because I like to sleep in different bedrooms" is all A++ for me xD
By far one of the best usages of shipping containers I've seen. Every aspect of the containers, design and land are being utilized effectively.
You can see the natural environment, you can see it change with the seasons *camera pans over non deciduous trees*
I had a chuckle.
I'm noticing a trend.... every tiny home dweller makes a fresh salad for their on screen meal 🤣🥗
Mmm... I love salad!
@Michael K Most people do when at home.
Lololol and as soon as Bryce leaves they call KFC
@@csf7773 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 🍗
@Michael K and yes... barefoot 🤣
The architect needs to win a Nobelprise or something
Get off the internet and read some books or something.
ThatGuyThatDoesStuff I liked the design and the "nobel prise or sth" is an exaggeration to show how much I liked it.
What's your problem?
This guy and the design are superficial.
Jacob I don't know about the guy but I like the design. I ain't no professional I just really like how it looks :)
To@@sarahthewho5374
Hello Sarah. Jacob and ThatGuy.. are trolls. They must have made upwards of a dozen negative comments on this video alone - none of any constructive value They are pitiable and thus to be ignored here as, in all likelihood, they are by all who know them in real life.
. Outstanding, I think this is my favorite shipping container home ever, what a wonderful job they did I'm so jealous
With population rise this will simply be the future. Smaller more affordable homes basically. Creativity above all people!
Best looking container home I’ve seen by far.
This container home is incredible. Having so much space yet such a flow about it is spectacular. I love the in law space too 😁
Watching the new upload is part of my Saturday routine. Beautiful and inspiring!
Love the thoughtfulness put into every aspect. Thank you for showing this Bryce.
Nice job, Simon and family. Good ethic/philosophy. You are very lucky (Simon) to have such a partner with whom to share. ☺
Thank you, Bryce, again.
I don't know about y'all but this HANDS DOWN my favorite shipping container home it's incredible. Congrats to Mr. Simon on owning such a nice home
Hands down one of the best houses ı have ever seen ! İ love this !
I very much enjoyed this episode. Simon was very eloquent in his words. I enjoying watching and listening to everything that was being said. :)
Beautiful. Personally I don't find camp ground bathrooms soothing or relaxing or....clean... but if it works for you it works for me lol
Yep, the lack of shower door with lots of family around would spook me. Too much risk of accidentally embarrassment.
I've seen a video where an expert basically dismantled the whole philosophy behind shipping containers - for many of the reasons stated here. She said, build with wood - it is more environmentally friendly and sustainable, and less wasteful in terms of materials, heating etc.
Great home, and the owner is the best salesman I have ever heard.
