    If there are two concepts that perfectly sum up tiny house living for me, it’s freedom and resilience. The freedom to live a life of your choosing, liberating greater resources for life through choosing to live in a smaller, more manageable home with lower overheads. This in turn leads to resilience and greater ability to weather storms when they come our way, whatever form those storms may take.
    Nilamani’s tiny house is a perfect example of this, executed with a tremendous amount of style. This is her dream, forever tiny house and it shows. The design is exceptional, accentuated through the way she has beautifully decorated her home.
    We hope you enjoy the tour of this stunning tiny house. You can visit Nilamani's yoga CZcams channel here: @soulshineyogawithnilamani5508

    This tiny house felt like a HOUSE. It just kept going! I assumed she must sleep in one of the lounge type areas, but no! There was yet another room- the bedroom loft, which didn't feel like a loft at all since there was so much standing room.
    Her sense of decor is stunning. The house could be in a parade of homes to show what the best of the best looks like!

This is the first tiny home I've seen that I feel I could move right into and not change a thing. Gorgeous. I want this home! Plenty of head room in all rooms, a bed you can comfortably walk around, bathroom that gives privacy, laundry, plenty of windows, room for a big comfy couch, open space so you dont feel cramped, even plenty of closet space that you can use for clothing or other stuff. Absolutely LOVE this.

    This actually IS a home with decent 360sqft downstairs + 240sqft upstairs with separate rooms!! Just when your viewers have decided their most favourite one, you had to come up with this marvelous one!
    The thoughtful old-fashioned separation of rooms with normal headroom, separation of bathroom and toilet with bonus point - far away from the kitchen, safe stairs and variety of passages all of it makes a real house and not just a modern tiny house on wheels!
    This is THE BEST and BRILLIANT design of a tiny house. Not only it works for a single person or a couple, but it will also work for a young family with kids too! So many separate zones to the house, actual private rooms and a kitchen with extended patio in the front! what else could anyone want!

    New Zealand (and Australia) went through an awful time with those coercive 'No jab, No job' mandates a couple of years ago. So many people were adversely affected which was deeply saddening. I completely empathize with Nilamani as I also lost 3 separate jobs plus my tiny home in NZ due to those stupid mandates. I had to return to the UK as a result of it all. My dream is to return to beautiful New Zealand one day and live in my own tiny home as the rules for tiny homes are very different here in the UK and I miss NZ terribly. Nilamani has a really lovely tiny house which she made happen through her mandate adversity and her gratitude and joy really shines through! 😍 Do what lights you up folks and whatever curve balls life throws at you just remember to keep Calm and Sparkle On! ✨🤩✨🙏💖

    This layout is definitely one of my favorites. This is exactly why I like to see diverse backgrounds being presented - from empty nesters, to young couples with kids, to younger and older singles etc. This is also why I prefer to see "lived in" tiny homes vs homes that have been created for Airbnb. I like to hear what it's like to live in the space, and what the homeowner would have done differently, if anything. I also like to hear what made them make the choices they did - the method to the madness lol! This is going down as one of my favorites.

I think what brings it across more is her furniture doesn’t seem like the regular boxed sofas, it looks like a regular house side even though it’s a tiny. I really appreciate how everything is organized. Very easy to function the bathroom the forethought she put in to putting the bathroom away from the kitchen. Yeah I’m really impressed with the design.

    I want a really cosy lounge where she has hers & love the kitchen where it is. Also love the separated toilet.
    I would decorate the lounge very differently & have an office where her meditation room is, but that’s all I’d change. The bedroom with proper cupboards & standing is a must. This is by far the best layout I’ve seen, after viewing probably 100 tiny homes!

    @tamielizabethallaway2413 Před 14 dny +2

    Holy Effing Moly!
    Just when I think I've seen the best of the best, this lil beauty rocks up! 😍
    Wow, this is pretty much perfection. The lil garden area around her home and that huge shed and driveway are stunning. I really appreciate the symmetry and precision that's gone into creating that garden. I think a big sturdy shed like that is essential to making going tiny more bearable and practical. You can gradually whittle through your remaining crap at your leisure, and store things like spare bedding, out of season clothing, craft supplies and leisure equipment, without having to give them up completely or factor them into your home.
    This is the same house as Shae's Mum and Dad's house right? The exact same floorplan, except her parents have added-on an additional ground floor bedroom, and enclosed the outdoor decking. But it's the same floorplan. It's a very clever floorplan allowing for proper stairs, full height connection walkway to both lofts, and even standing height in the dressing and storage areas of the bedroom.
    I love the separate lounge, LOVE the dividing hallway, with the washing machine and back door, and then the bathroom. I personally wouldn't opt for a separate toilet unless it had it's own sink. I don't think a door should come between wiping your nether regions, and being able to wash your hands - but each to their own, and she's styled it beautifully in there. Gorgeous wallpaper.
    I can't personally afford a front door let alone an entire house, but I'm totally on board with the idea of building a tiny that is luxurious. Some people claim going tiny SHOULD mean building a box on wheels out of free pallets and paying out very little financially, and of course for some people, that's what they need their home to provide. They just need a home that is cheap to build, is below certain sizes to avoid taxes or rules that apply to standard sized homes, and tinys were and still ARE a way to "cheat the legislation" regarding housing.
    But it's perfectly reasonable and natural that other people came to love the idea of going tiny for other benefits of the lifestyle that goes with it. For example, any part of a tiny on the INTERIOR that is FULL STANDING HEIGHT is counted legally as "square footage"...this is exactly WHY lofts are NOT full height. Turning the outdoor deck into another lounge area is also another way of adding another "room" to your home, without extending your total square footage of living space - because the deck is exempt from "living space" as it's outside.
    Tinys were designed to stay within the size limits of the cheapest housing bracket. Technically this home could not be legally classified as two bedrooms, because bedrooms by law must be full standing height. So of course the design of tinys is a challenge, how to create a proper sleeping space "feel" within a non legally defined "bedroom" area. And that's where the design, maximising storage space and increasing the practicality of tiny living really came into the journey. Older designs always had impractical ladders, sofas that you had to convert into a bed every night and put away every morning, and people just can't be doing with that day in day out.
    So I'm all for spending whatever budget you want to, despite it being a tiny house on wheels. Cost shouldn't reflect SIZE or SQUARE FOOTAGE only. Bigger doesn't mean better. The less housework and maintenance the better as far as I'm concerned, couldn't agree with her more on that! Smaller is cheaper, so why not spend those savings on pimping your small house at to it's MAX?
    No doubt someone on here will say the cost of this could buy them a five bedroom, two bathroom house somewhere else, and if more room is what you need, no one is stopping you! But that doesn't mean the money she's spent on a fraction of the square footage is money wasted! Most people live in a home and spend most of their life redecorating, improving, renovating and maxing out that house to be a comfortable haven... that's a helluva lotta year's working, never having the quality fixtures, fittings, furnishings and appliances you want, constantly aiming to achieve it. But when you reach her age, you don't WANT to spend your life doing housework, and every weekend landscaping or DIYing themselves to death! They just want to LIVE THEIR LIFE!!!
    A LUXURY tiny is the ultimate tiny imo. Paying out for ingenious design, quality of craftsmanship and ensuring a high end finished product is WORTH EVERY PENNY imo. Size really doesn't matter, it's what you do with it that counts, and what she's done with this is stunning. The landscape is entirely ridiculous it's so beautiful. I know she wants to live closer to family, but seriously, the surrounding area doesn't get anymore idyllic than THAT! The precision of her actual plot, garden, and shed is immaculate. The house flows like a dream and doesn't compromise on any practicality or ease of living despite it's small size. It really is perfection. It's beautiful. ❤

    Wow! Somehow in NOT having everything be fully open and putting distinct boundaries on each section of the home makes it seem much bigger than it is, more like a traditional sized home. But not at all cramped. This just speaks to how well designed and planned and styled everything is. Nilamani, your home really is a masterpiece and an excellent example of how tiny homes don't have to mean giving up on certain luxuries, privacy, etc.

    Lovely. This is the best sleeping-loft (I've yet seen. And finally we're seeing art on the walls; I'm shocked by how few people decorate their walls with art. Walking through the hallway to the washroom, you can appreciate how framed art on the walls contributes to it feeling like home.
    The upstairs yoga studio is lovely - though I'm stumped as to how one would do (much less teach!) yoga in a room where you can stand, but not raise your arms above your head? No more sun salutations in this place!
    In any case, wonderful to see someone demonstrating how being "mandated" out of one's job (which is criminal) ultimately led to more intentional choices - and a new & magical life. Bravo to her.
