Editorial note

The story of this plan

This tiny house is a compact, single-level residential design that efficiently accommodates all essential living functions within a carefully organized footprint. With a total interior area of 35.78 m² (approximately 385 sq ft), the plan demonstrates how thoughtful spatial planning can deliver comfort, privacy, and usability in a minimal structure. The interior layout is arranged to clearly separate day and night functions. The living room, measuring 13.28 m² (approximately 143 sq ft), serves as the central shared space of the house. Its proportions allow for seating, circulation, and everyday activities without congestion, making it suitable for both daily living and occasional hosting within the scale of a tiny home. Adjacent to the living area, the kitchen occupies 4.04 m² (approximately 43.5 sq ft). Despite its compact size, it is efficiently positioned to support practical food preparation while maintaining a direct relationship with the main living space. The kitchen’s configuration emphasizes functionality and proximity rather than excess storage or separation. The bedroom is notably generous relative to the overall size of the house, with an area of 14.38 m² (approximately 155 sq ft). This space provides a clear sense of privacy and comfort, allowing for sleeping, storage, and movement without feeling constrained. Its size enhances the long-term livability of the tiny house, distinguishing it from more compressed micro-housing layouts. The bathroom, measuring 4.08 m² (approximately 44 sq ft), is efficiently planned to accommodate standard sanitary functions. Its compact footprint reflects the overall philosophy of spatial efficiency while still maintaining functional clarity. An exterior terrace of 7.03 m² (approximately 75.7 sq ft) extends the usable living space beyond the interior envelope. This outdoor area enhances the quality of life by providing space for relaxation, dining, or transition between indoor and outdoor environments. The terrace also contributes to natural light access and reinforces the connection between the house and its surroundings. The plan is strictly single-story, ensuring ease of access and straightforward circulation throughout. Elevation drawings indicate a simple, compact volume with balanced openings, reinforcing the practical and modest character of the design. Structural systems, construction materials, insulation methods, and building services are not specified in the provided plan, allowing adaptability to different climates, construction techniques, and local building regulations. Overall, this tiny house design is well suited for minimalist living, a guest house, an accessory dwelling unit, or a small primary residence. Its clear organization, efficient room sizes, and inclusion of an outdoor terrace make it a practical and realistic solution for compact residential use without unnecessary complexity.

What lifestyle it supports
Ideal for individuals or couples seeking minimalist living, a secondary dwelling, or a compact primary residence. The inclusion of a terrace extends the usable living area and supports indoor-outdoor lifestyle patterns despite the modest interior size.
How it adapts to your needs
The simple rectangular layout allows for internal reconfiguration, such as adjusting room proportions or modifying the terrace connection. Structural systems, materials, and technical installations are not specified in the provided plan, allowing flexibility depending on local building practices.
