The Nugget
One hundred square feet isn’t a lot, but Modern Tiny Living manages to make every inch count in this livable—and stylish—home that has all the home essentials: full bathroom, kitchenette, and comfy bed. On top of the necessities, the exterior and interior embrace minimalism design with an all-over coat of white paint that lends an airiness to the small space.
Teal on Wheels
Bold color can easily overwhelm a room, making a tiny space feel even tinier. This design from Tumbleweed Tiny House Company, however, proves you don’t need to stick to a neutral color palette when living small. The designers looked to the home exterior for color inspiration, bringing in blue kitchen cabinets for a burst of personality next to the natural pine wood walls.
Rustic Lodge

Sneaky Storage
Many people would never adopt a tiny lifestyle for fear they’d either have to downsize or move most of their stuff into storage. Wishbone Construction’s design addresses these concerns by hiding smart storage in every nook and cranny, meaning residents may live with more of their possessions than they probably imagined.
Bright and Open
Tiny living doesn’t have to feel cramped. Take a look at this bright and airy space from New Frontier Tiny Homes. The window-covered walls let in light and hide special features, including a drop-down deck and awning that add livable square footage.
Simple and Sustainable

Beach Shack
When you’d rather be at the beach, who cares about the square footage of your vacation rental anyway? This beach cottage on wheels has more than enough space and amenities to keep you entertained after a day by the water. Turquoise and white accents add to the beachy vibe and the distressed wood floors disguise any sand that gets tracked in.
Beautiful Bamboo
From the outside, this home resembles many other modern minimalist tiny homes, but a step inside provides an entirely different perspective. The Asian-inspired decor inspires serenity, which jibes with the tiny home movement’s mantra of simplicity.
Quaint Contemporary
This tiny house represents just the right mix of cozy and contemporary, resulting in an inviting and relaxing environment. The sharp lines exude modernity, but playful string lights and colorful accents bring light and life to the space.
