Flexible and Adaptable Tiny House Inspired by Californian Coastal Goodness

Tiny homes offer the perfect living solution for those who cannot afford to spend a fortune on a lavish, brand new house. It not brings alive the dream of owning a house on a budget, but also saves space and conserves resources. This tiny backyard house designed by Abodu in collaboration with Koto is one such amazing delight that takes no more than just 2 weeks to build and can be installed pretty much on any site with ease. The house does not burn a hole in your pocket, leaves the landscape it sits on largely untouched and ensures that you have an efficient house or even a beautiful second home, backyard guest space or even holiday home that is modern and functional.

Backyard tiny house in wood offers smart living solutions in limited space

The cabin has been built suing very high environmental standards and everything from permissions to building and installation is taken care of with ease. On the outside, it is naturally-stained cedar that shapes the cabins with standing seam metal roof providing visual contrast. Inside the cabin it is a world of white and wood that takes over everywhere. A living room that is much more spacious than it really is welcomes you thanks to the vaulted ceiling even as the kitchen and small corner dining area sit next to it. Black and white in the kitchen and ample natural light complete these tiny homes where you can customize details to suit your specific needs. [Photography: Joe Fletcher]

  • Olympia Prairie Home

    The designer’s task was to build a modern, budget-minded home that was livable and respected its rural environment. The Yelm residence is a contemporary take on a country home: using a combination of simple, cost-effective methods to create a warm, comfortable space through clean lines and precise design. A minimal exterior material palette of wood and stucco siding with metal panel accents helps to highlight the beauty of the 10 acres of land on which the house rests. Concrete masonry unit (CMU) walls frame the entry and a flat roof plane hovers overhead to ground the project into the prairie style landscape. The home reflects the clients’ informal lifestyle and relationship to the environment. He is a graphic designer who works from home; her hobbies include sewing, craft projects, and gardening.
    The home is 2,200 square feet and L-shaped in plan, which allows for the master suite and office to be separated from the guest rooms, craft room and garage. Centrally placed are the open plan living room, kitchen, and dining room. These rooms create a core space with expansive glass walls that connect the owners visually and physically to the landscape. Private views of foothills and tree-covered wetlands are offered through the transparent core, along with sightings of deer and elk near the back patio. Designed with radiant floor heating, heat-recovery technology, and natural ventilation, the simplicity of the floor plan’s organization creates an intimate and warm interior environment. A concrete masonry fireplace paired with the copper-toned, stained birch ceiling also adds material warmth. Circulation through the space is enlivened by built-in storage benches, acting as visual breaks and adding pops of color. Efficient planning and the repetition of elements throughout the house helped to keep costs down, resulting in an economically priced, modern home that compliments its natural environment.
