    This is one of the most functional designs I've seen. None of the ridiculous furniture items you have to build any time you want to use it. Full size sinks, tub, bed, counter space. The kids have their own actual room instead of a weird curtained off area that will be outgrown within a year. This is all great. By the time you outgrow this thing, you'll already be on to the next adventure.

    I know you love that counter space and don't mind the landromats for now, but I would've gone with the full sized washer dryer and get that better dishwsher since you know it saves water, and upgrade to the 50 gal tank... You might see that laundromat visit as a vacation now, but having to hunt one down every area you go to might start wearing thin. You've got kids who are only going to grow larger and dirty more, larger clothes, meaning your W/D combo will be even less effective. With the small W/D gone you can have lower shelving where you have none and small storage bins. The trade off is worth it if you look at the long haul. If you're home schooling those boys, you are going to have far less freedom four or five days a week. With those two hours, you can go on an instructive nature hike, rather than have to devote time to finding and doing laundry elsewhere. You're an incredible planner with great foresight. You also did not say you had solar panels or batteries. Do you?

At least they're doing a real room with space for the kids to actually have stuff.

    My favorite is definitely the boys’ room. So many tiny houses owners didn’t think much about their kids - thinking that it’s totally okay having a curtain covering their sleeping areas and all. But kids grow up and eventually they want their own spaces where their parents won’t “see” them. And if families want to keep doing this for a long time, they should put a lot of thoughts into their kids rather than just the tiny houses themselves. I love your tiny house because it’s the real definition of tiny house. Still have that “home” feels but just smaller ❤️

It is wonderful that you are able to spend the time with your own boys rather than having someone else raise them while you are working. Your builder was probably very happy that you gave him input before the build rather than having him rework everything after it was done. I loved your idea of putting everything into bins and sending him the dimensions for the drawers and cabinets. I lived through building a sticks and bricks house and know what a nightmare it can be. Thank you. I hope you have a Wonderful Week also.

    one of the most efficient tiny mobile houses i have seen. the idea im sure is to pick one of the most important rooms a person wants in their house and work around it. everything fits and nothing is cramped, except maybe the herb bed, but still its just for gardening and even people who live in cramped apts, use containers ! this was really a professionally designed use of space. great science in the engineering of the design. I wish you all well.

I hate the idea of disassembling furniture to make another piece of furniture for something else, and that’s another reason I like this home.

    One of the few videos I can watch without increasing the speed to 1.5 or 2.0. Even though it's 35 minutes long, it contains information that would take other videos 1h to explain. I enjoyed it a lot, and think your home is amazing. Every single detail on the house looks like a ton of thought went into it. I definitely agree with you that it would be better to have more water though. You could possibly use some space in your car to keep another water-tank as a second supply.

    Krane people in video talk slower because it’s better to talk slower and be understood than talk faster and not be. It’s taught in film school. I usually increase the speed too, but it is necessary to have people talk slower. It also allows people reading captions to finish reading the caption and still be with the video.

    @@JacquelineUnderwood Incorrect. The people in video that talk slow do so because they are untrained and don't know any better. If the did, they'd know that slow take would put their audience to sleep. On the other hand, professionally trained broadcasters speak concisely, succinctly, and clearly. Broadcaster and newscaster are anything but slow speakers (although the evening disc jockey may be a bit more laid back than his morning counterpart) because they know that would bore audiences and they'd quickly lose interest in what they are saying. In America, the use general English, so as to avoid accents.

    I love that she was so open about what worked and what didn't. This was a great design. I have the same washer dryer combo and I have the same complaint. For a large family, it doesn't dry well. I ended up having to get a regular dryer. I also was so stoked that they made a lot of allowances because of their children. They are afraid of showers, so they have a tub. They may not be safe on the ladder so they get the gooseneck which has quite a bit of space. So many of these tiny houses seem like the kids were an afterthought. The parents have a nice bedroom and the kids are squeezed up into a loft they can't stand up in. So this was a refreshing change.

That way you can scroll through your closet catalog on your phone, pick out the number, and simply pick it out. What do you think? Btw, this video is amazing! You're a beautiful, intelligent, and lively mother...another that I now envy. You and your husband did an incredible job designing your tiny home! I was just curious if your sons have autism or adhd. I picked up you saying they have some sensory challenges and are very active. It sounds like my son. You seem to be able to keep up with them, though. That's something I'm still struggling with. Anyway, great job and happy adventures!

Over the last few years we have followed tiny house living & are really falling in love with the idea of less space for upkeep & being alot more financially free. We do have grandkids so of course that will need be considered for sleep overs. Like your place I want a full size frig or comparable, oven, burners, & dishwasher. Im not big on the composting toilet, but could deal with a RV style toilet. Definitely want a tub/shower combo. And unfortunately I can no longer do ladders (disability: knees & back)...so would need sturdy, stairs with handles. You were very informative thank you so so much!!!

Its perfect with kids, and they can grow into it. Thats always a question I have, can they grow with it, will they still be able to have it as the kids get older. And with this one, you totally can. If i was going to go with a design, that I was able to travel with, I would use this as a reference in my build. I love it. It would fit with myself, and my younger son. I love the outside of it too, the whole feel inside. Gorgeous!
