THE INFLUENCE
The influence was simple, craftsman style homes have a character that I really like. Having never seen it done at a tiny house scale, the design became an opportunity to try it.
THE FORM
The house is two stories, kept compact to fit the tiny house scale. The Craftsman details , the covered front porch, the wood shingle cladding are what give it its character. Everything that makes a Craftsman feel like a home was kept, just pulled down to a smaller footprint.
FINAL ENVIRONMENT
The interior keeps the same character as the outside , open on the ground floor with the kitchen, living, and dining flowing together, and the bedroom up top. The porch wraps the front, giving the house an outdoor space that feels connected to the neighborhood around it.
Elevation / Section
Four elevations showing the front, back, east, and west faces of the building, followed by a section cut through the interior showing the two-story layout.
