Perfect Tiny Home on an Island: Romantic Escape that Saves Space and Resources

The dream of every urbanite is to have that lovely holiday home that is far away from the constant rush and bright lights of big city. It is a dream that is often constrained by lack of resources. But this tiny vacation cabin on the Galiano Island brings the dream alive with its smart and eco-friendly design that is easy on the eyes and on the pocket. It is the perfect little escape that not only offers wonderful views of the landscape, but also allows its newly wed owners to rejuvenate and rest with ease! Designed by Trim Studio, the cabin occupies no more than just 100-square foot of space.

But that seems more than sufficient in here with a small living area, a functional kitchen in white and wood that has a black workstation and a bedroom that is illuminated by a brilliant skylight. Each space flows into the next and the cabin offers everything a couple could need on their vacation. Even more impressive is the gorgeous wooden deck just outside that also holds a hot tub and adds to the sense of luxury and romance the cabin exudes.

  • Lago Vista

    This project was a true evolution of design. The owners originally approached DC+A about 10 years ago to design an informal home on their narrow cliff-side lot in the resort community of Lago Vista outside of Austin, TX. The couple worked with our firm remotely, trusting us to design their dream home. The original designs were for the narrow lot, but when a piece of land became available next door, the owners bought it and decided to re-envision their dream home to stretch across both pieces of property and leave more “breathing room” for the neighboring properties. The ultimate design is a 4,000 square foot limestone-clad home that frames views of the Colorado River from every room. The home uses some classic hill country and contemporary features that lend themselves well to the Central Texas lakeside setting, incorporated in a beautifully laid-back way. Featuring clerestory windows, floor to ceiling retractable glass doors and multi-purpose rooms, the home has an incredible quality and depth of natural light. The furnishings complement the architecture while remaining both casual and durable. Concrete floors add to the easy-going personality of the home, while redwood finishes outside and white oak inside reflect the riverside setting. The landscaping echoes the home’s relaxed nature with indigenous plants, while the Texas-sourced Antique Lueders Limestone finishing the exterior walls roots the home firmly in its setting.
