A 236 Sq Ft Tea House with a Beutiful, Minimal Design


Here is a little house design that epitomizes everything that tiny house living is about. This beautifully designed backyard guest house is called the Teahouse, and it has a lovely story behind it. This little house design was designed and built by the famous architect, Pietro Belluschi. In the 1940’s, Pietro Belluschi was hired by a doctor based in Portland and his wife to construct and build a northwestern mid-century modern home.


   

In the backyard of the property there was an old garden shed that the couple wanted to keep, and so the little house was remodeled into a beautiful guesthouse that was inspired by Japanese and Scandinavian minimalism. THen in 1973, Belluschi, who had always considered the property to be one of his favorites, purchased the house for himself and then lived in the house until his death in 1994. The Teahouse over the years fell into disrepair but was eventually saved by the architect's son, Antony (Tony) Belluschi. The younger Belluschi won an award for the restoration of the tiny house in 2011. Today the 236 square foot Teahouse and the main house design are both still owned and lived in by Anthony and his wife. The little house is still used as a guest house and is at times is offered as tours to the public. You are sure to love this simple and modern design.


This unique small house plan is beautiful in its simple design that uses light colored wood and simple lines for a look that is seamless and calming. The little house design fits in perfectly with its natural surroundings, and the covered outdoor patio is the perfect spot to sit back and enjoy the fresh air. The kitchen cabinets match the light wood that is used throughout the design and has an uncluttered overall feel to the place. This little house design is a good example of how less is more, and how the use of color or the type of wood used in a design can help to make a tiny space feel larger. It also goes to show the variety of uses that a tiny house design can be used for. In this little house design, the home is used for a guest house, a beautiful place to stay when family or friends come over to visit. Little house designs can be used for all sorts of things from artist studios, writers cabins, playhouses, full-time living, backyard offices, extra space for the kids, vacation homes and so much more.
