Flexible and Adaptable Tiny House Inspired by Californian Coastal Goodness

ByMyProperty Life

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]

  • Auburn Addition and Remodel

    Built in the late 1970s, the Auburn house is reminiscent of the California Modern homes built in the mid-century. Located in an established neighborhood of mixed residential typologies, the house greets the neighborhood on the north street side and opens to a southern back yard perched above the North Fork of the American River canyon. The owners, who both work from home, asked us to develop a master plan for the property that included additional space for private offices, a guest bedroom, a workshop, and a future pool. Also desired was an extensive remodel of the existing house that update the home and improve energy efficiency. The two-story addition to the home is tucked into a narrow buildable slice of the parcel on the eastern end of the home. It optimizes the existing infrastructure and only hints at a bold modern form, from the street side. However, on the private south side, the addition opens dramatically to the inspiring southern canyon view from the second-floor office spaces. A second entrance is provided into the “creative” wing of the building – to allow work to occur with some separation from the activity of family life. The remodel of the existing home evokes the California Modernist moments of the building by creating smoother transitions between the interior and exterior spaces and updating the kitchen to create better functionality all while using sustainable materials that are expressed in an honest manner. The energy upgrades on this home focus on improving the envelope through meticulous air sealing, replacing all the existing insulation, replacing all the windows, and upgrading all the mechanical equipment. An oversized and outdated furnace was replaced with a high performing unit installed within a conditioned attic. Heating and cooling in the new addition will be provided by a ductless mini split. A roof mounted 6 kW photovoltaic system is expected to offset all the electrical usage for this mixed fuel home.
