This Tiny House Design Changes Everything!

of course our toilet dehydrated and yes we are very happy with the bathroom, really beautiful tiles here too, thank you. I wanted it to look like the sea, so the sea colors the rocks. I love the sea, that's why I have that huge sea. painting in the living room also that came from Ukraine, by the way, a great lovely artist in Ukraine, so I want to see a kind of feeling that we canSometimes I hear the waves at night and the winds blow in the right direction, so I feel a bit like Z. I'm in the sea when I'm in the bathroom, yeah that's really nice and it's great that you have the back entrance.

Also, because having another entrance to the

house

is very important, isn't it? Yes, also for security. When we

design

well, I've always thought it's good for the fire if you have more than one entrance and exit, but also because our washing machine is there and it's nice and easy for me to take the clothes to the clothesline in the back, so it works very good, unfortunately most people use that as our main entrance, which is not great because if I re

design

ed the

house

again we would make that passage a little wider, since being a small house design, you would know that it is all experimentation , No?

And it's so cool that working on a project like

this

you can try and test these ideas. and see what works and what doesn't, yes, there are some adjustments that I would make, but I don't think it will change much in

this

design, yes, I really like it and then we have the bedroom, yes, let's take a look, let's take a look, this It is such a lovely room and what immediately strikes me about this room is how wonderfully connected it is to the outside. I used to think that I would like to go and sit on the terrace and have my morning tea, but actually I sit on my bed and look out the window.

Sometimes I realize that I have been here for a long time, but it is so beautiful to look out the window, yes. and you're surrounded by your family in this room with all these wonderful photos. I'm family, it's very important to me, I have my three daughters, my grandchildren and my sons-in-law, and it's a lovely space for me to just sit and watch. Yes, that is very pretty and I love the way you have decorated this room. It's just a nice soft space. Yes, we had to find an idea between the girl and the boy and I couldn't have too many flowers, but.

No, I was very happy with what I did here, so yes, we are happy with that and you have a pretty special wardrobe in this room too, don't you? He wanted a locker room because no one, even at his age, really gets up. early to go to work, but he can change in the locker room, he can sneak up and go to work while I'm a lady of leisure and go to sleep, that's a nice feature, I like it, I like it and of course you. I have designed so many small houses for so many people.

It must have been a great pleasure to design something for you. This is actually a small house for us. Mark III, Sophie's design was the first one I thought we could live with. Sh and I sat down and designed that and then I thought no, maybe we could even do better than that, so yeah, there were about three designs that got us to this place. I think in the end we got it exactly how we wanted it, yeah. And when it came to designing your own home, what were the things that were most important to you?

Yes, and I would recommend that everyone do what I used to teach my students in school, a pmip more, less, interesting and possibilities, so things that you have to do. you have are your advantages and disadvantages things that you definitely don't want interesting things that you would like and your possibilities and how you would get those interesting things and um, I think we checked the boxes on

everything

we wanted and now you've been through this downsizing journey yourself. Personally, how bright is life in a small house to you? Honestly, I wouldn't change it for anything. In fact, I told Shay the other day that if she won the LOTTERY, she would still be living like this.

I could buy this little Paddock, so I wouldn't have to rent it, but I would still live. I love it, it's so peaceful, calm, stress-free, it really is the best decision we've ever made. One of the things that surprises me about life in the Tiny House is that I can fit all my furniture. As a family, we even watched the Rugby World Cup and we had all the kids, we were probably sitting on each other's heads or something, but we were all in this little room watching the Rugby World Cup with my grandkids and my kids and everyone. , we find space. to sit down you don't need a huge room to be together, that has made me feel very happy to be able to have my whole family in my small space and can we talk about the cost that went into building this house, probably around 300,000? and then solar, maybe on top of that, 350 people tend to think that being small is cheap, but it's a real house, it's built the same way houses are built, in fact the biggest cost in a house is the kitchen and the bathroom. and the whole little house, as you can see, is mainly kitchen and bathroom and it's actually just a real house, so you're well settled into your home.

You've been living here for a little over a year. What does the future hold for you? I'd like to think we'll be here for the next 10 years and this will come out in our boxes, but you know, you never know what life will bring, but if we had it the way we wanted, we'd live. here until we couldn't live here anymore, well, Sheila, this is such a beautiful home you've created here. I love this design and how well it looks on you. Thank you very much for sharing it with me. It's a pleasure, Bry and it's been lovely having you here.

This little house is exquisite. They have thought of

everything

in this place. Excellent indoor outdoor living. Amazing entertainment areas. Space for grandchildren. But what really surprises me about this place is how wonderfully family oriented it is. Sheila and N. a house that is perfect for them but can also be expanded beautifully when needed so the whole family can get together and that is just one of the things that really makes this place work
