Hi, I’m Ryan
When you live tiny or small, having the right design is everything. Choosing the right floor plan for your tiny house is one of the first big steps. Don’t forget that while there are many great tiny home floorplans out there, you can design your own tiny house layouts too! Consider what life you’re trying to build, then follow that with a design that will support it. The tiny house design post below is a great post to check out if you’re using an existing plan or making your own plan.

One Story Tiny House

A one story tiny house with a ground floor bedroom is the way to go if you’re thinking of retiring in your tiny home, have mobility concerns, or just would rather not have to climb down out of a loft in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. And lofts are still great for a guest bedrrom, storage or for other purposes.
