Tiny Houses

Here we go..  Tiny houses.. Some people love the idea and some don't..  Personally I do like the idea of being in a small house like that..    I had that in the Netflix that had people looking for tiny houses to live in, some are just summer getaways and others are more for living in permanently..  Some seem like they wouldn't be that great.. There are some that really do hit my sense of a place to live..

This is a nice introduction to the tiny house movement...

This house seems perfect.. Two lofts, one a bed room the other a living room type of thing..  The only real setback would be.. She is like 5 foot six inches tall.. And the house is designed for her height.. The office and bathroom are just tall enough for her to walk in without bending over.. I would have to have it just a little taller.. But the design would be what I would like to have.. Really cool..  And there are more videos to watch on the YouTube so give it a look see...  See look..  Either or neither..

(P.S.   Ok, I've thought about this and while living in a tiny home (house) seems like something I would love to do there are certain things that I think about.. The logistics of doing such a thing.. There are certain houses that are really small (I had to go outside just to change my mind)...  There is a certain amount of romance to the idea of living in a tiny house.. Just as having a tent or a camper, this is to me the house I would want to live in.. So what specific do I think of??  The bathroom.. Seriously this is fairly important, I mean it doesn't have to be a big room, when I was looking at some of the smaller campers the toilet is doubled as the place to sit while taking a shower.. That isn't a bad  thing, but you would have to remember that.. Also the toilet paper, would it get wet when you take a shower or.. Take it out of the bathroom when you take a shower.. the bedroom.. I slept in a bunkbed in a hotel in Silverton one time when we were there, it seemed like not that big of a deal.. The thing is it was right up next to the wall and was very limited in space..  It was the top bunk there was no bottom bunk..  I wasn't stuck with this, I actually wanted to sleep there having seen my brother sleep there the year before..  The bed in a tiny house would be the mattress pretty much only.. The bed in the lilly pad from the video above looked small but it likely was perfect for her.. Now other things about the steps to get down, to go to the bathroom late at night.. Might need a dim light to make sure you get down the stairs safely..  The stairs are narrow.. Could be a recipe for trouble that way..  The Lilly pad house has the second loft as a living room idea rather than have it down on the main floor.. Really  a good idea.. The main floor should be more the kitchen and the bathroom she also had an office there which was great.. Heating in the winter might be a problem.. Small house = small furnace or no furnace..  and rather a wood furnace or alternate therein.. How warm would this house be in twenty miles per hour wind and twenty below zero temperature..   Really interesting house though.. I really like the idea don't get me wrong, tiny houses have a serious appeal but there are things that I think about with the idea of living in a house like this.. )
