Sakura Tiny House. A Custom Built THOW That Will Impress .


Tiny homes as we know them have come a long way in the last several years, evolving from a more cutesy, handmade aesthetic into a growing diversity of styles, and constructed with a growing array of new building techniques.



   

These diminutive dwellings are also being made for colder climates, as we see in this impressive modern home built for a client by Minimaliste, a tiny house company from Quebec, Canada. It features a lot of smart small-space design ideas, from the seating area to the bedroom. Minimaliste’s founder Philippe Beaudoin gives a tour of the Sakura tiny house below .

Coming in at 380 square feet, the Sakura’s biggest draws include the convertible sitting/dining area, a large bedroom, a large-ish soaking tub, a three-level water filtration system, and the hydronic radiant heating in the floors.

Check out the main seating area, which can transform into a dining area when the modular sofa pieces are moved around, and the coffee table opened up into a 22″ x 60″ dining table that can seat up to four. And yes, there is storage space hidden in these sofas as well.



The kitchen is arranged on two facing walls, with part of the secondary upstairs loft coming down to form an alcove for the refrigerator and stove.



The stairs leading up to the bedroom can be enlisted for storage.


As the home was built on a gooseneck trailer, the bedroom is well-situated over the front end of the trailer here. Even the bed itself can be lifted up to store things.




The bathroom is pretty spacious for a tiny home: there is a composting toilet and a small tub.




The secondary loft looks like a space for reading, and is also the place where one can go up and access the cedar roof deck, via an openable skylight.




The Sakura comes with a Lunos air exchanger with a heat recovery system. There are quite a lot of features, all of them listed here, and in regards to the in-house water filtration system, the company says:

The water that can be supplied from two different source goes through the pressure regulator, a big sediments filter, fine sediments filter and finally through a water sanitizer. You can practically take water from the river!


It’s a high-end, customized build that cost an eyebrow-raising USD $102,000 — definitely on the pricier side (and considering the square footage you get) .

Take a peek at this seemingly standard teardrop – the front hatch is hiding a true dream

Image
Teardrops are all the rage right now because of their compact design, ease, and versatility. The Silver Tears Campers have caught our eyes though due to their incredibly detailed customized designs and the fact that two of their trailers are practically bars on wheels!       You can tell that each trailer has been hand-crafted and designed just for you - and we love that. All too often, trailers come off the factory line ready to be used by just about anyone. But teardrops feel special, and custom, and for that alone we love these little campers. So take the tour and see all the great amenities and details fitted into these little campers - you won't believe it. This camper is called the Tailgater - and you can probably see why. The hatch opens up and displays a beautiful bar that holds bottles, chills drinks, and essentially kicks off the party. We've never seen anything like this before, but we'd love to have one of these in the parking lot at t

And it only took them three weeks!     Just when we thought we'd seen every adorable tiny house there was to be seen, along comes what might just be the most adorable A-frame cabin to ever exist. Photographer Alla Ponomareva and her husband Garrett constructed this pint-size getaway as a guest house on the grounds of their home in Missoula, Montana. Tiny house builder Derek "Deek" Diedricksen , who designed the original plans, built his version for $1,200—but Alla was able to whittle the cost of her A-frame down to $700 by using repurposed materials, including window frames, logs, nails, and boards, they already had sitting around their property. With a few DIY projects already under their belts, Alla and Garrett were ready to tackle this "big" tiny house project, completing their cute cabin in just three weeks. On her blog , Alla says what she liked most about the design was how one wall lifts out, increasing the square footage of the sm
