Description
The trend towards the Tiny House—and also the Micro Flat—is more than just a short-term hype. It is an attitude towards life, a contemplation on the essentials to which more and more people are attracted. The past months have shown us what we really need—and that is often not so much.
All over the world, houses and housing units in mini format are en vogue. For many, they are the only way to fulfil the dream of owning one's own home.
The carefully selected projects from all over the world show how space can be gained by concentrating on the substantial, intelligent floor plans, well thought-out storage solutions, and nesting of functions. They highlight in very different ways that great living quality can be wonderfully made possible in a small space through clever design.
