Design Concept Designing a 19 X 8 space to ensure someone can live in, can be very tough. The diagrams presented are mostly utilizing architectural design to make the tiny house livable with plenty of storage. Creating storage creates sleek and cleanliness to keep all of your items away as well as keeping your life organized. The two desk areas, as well as the couch, makes it a very desirable place to live in while you relax.

Inspiration For Tiny House I loved the layout of the top picture. It had the bathroom in the back of the home with the kitchen on both sides of the home. I thought that it felt more like home with this layout because it leaves the living room space to be more open for guest. The bottom picture reminded me of my childhood because we had a bathtub just like this which will also be very relaxing. This tub also helps make it feel a bit more relaxing and clean with an actual tub in your bathroom.
Lighting The top picture to the right, will be above the front door as you walk into the entry. Here, it will light up this space and make it feel brighter, cleaner and a little bit more open. The bottom picture, is going to be used in the bathroom above the sink. I picked this style of lights because it will pull in the urban style throughout the whole home.
Kitchen For the kitchen, since white represents cleanliness I picked white cabinetry. For the countertops, to bring the urban style into the kitchen, I picked stainless steel countertops. This style countertops will also make the tiny home look very modern. The countertops will also match all of the appliances in the home. For the handles, I picked a stainless steel handle to match throughout the kitchen.
Living Area Furniture In the tiny home, I planned enough space for the clients to put a couch in. I also left enough room for a coffee table for them to put in there if they would like. This space will be great for entertaining!
Flooring For the entry, living and kitchen, I plan to place hardwood flooring here. The style I chose was a dark wood that looks a little distressed. In the bathroom, I picked a white marble tile that will make the bathroom look clean and chic. For the bedroom in the loft, since you will be mostly on your hands and knees, I wanted to pick a carpet that is very soft and absorbent. I also picked a color that is neutral so it goes with any paint color.
