Tiny houses are taking over the country, and even the world. They are stylish, flexible and eco-friendly. There is more to building tiny houses than just good craftsmanship. Many have innovative ideas and solutions for living small, and all have a great deal of artistic flair. Some are mobile, others are stationary, some are basic and simple while others are luxurious and stylish. And with the number of talented builders joining the movement, there is sure to be just the right tiny house for sale for you.

Matt Impola created his 250-square-foot tiny house on wheels as part of the Handcrafted Movement he founded in order to ‘play a part in the rebirth of American ingenuity and quality in manufacturing’. He is a builder, making regular houses during his working hours, and in his free time he built, almost completely from scratch, the house he calls the 'Artisan Retreat'.

The house is the result of him combining his experience of learning about different cultures and design principles with his passion for the arts, craftsmanship, sustainability, and stewardship. The house, rustic but full of stylish and innovative details, is now for sale and hopefully Matt will be encouraged to make more of them.

Are you sure you want a tiny home? Do you know what is involved? How much stuff you will have to get rid of? These and so many questions need to be answered before you can even think of building your own unique tiny home that is adapted to your style. At Modern Tiny Living they offer that first step for free. About 15 minutes consultation with their engineer will tell you, and them, whether you should go ahead.

At Modern Tiny Living, they do not have models or pre-fabricated tiny homes. They do have basic concepts to help you decide which is the best setup for you. It could be the rough, value-conscious Base concept, the mobile Wonderer, for those who want to live off the grid, the Weekender, as an extra bedroom or studio in your backyard, or the Explorer, a truly mobile tiny home for those who want to sleep in a different location every month.

Randy Jones produces his Incredible Tiny Homes, in his not-so-tiny warehouse in Morristown, Tennessee. Nothing is given; everything from the size (16 to 40 feet) and materials to every last little detail are driven by the client’s instructions. Only one thing is sure – the client will receive superb craftsmanship and a high quality, wonderfully livable home.

The process starts with the clients reviewing the standards that come with every tiny house and adding their wishes regarding the flooring, wall and siding material, number of lofts, type of bathroom, and so many other little details. The result is every client’s dream home, ready to hit the road or get parked in grandpa’s field.

Mike Bedsole spent his life remodeling and repairing houses big and small, but the tiny house trend triggered his inner creativity and his wish to build something exciting and fun, something out of the box. The result is his Tiny House Chattanooga, the company that creates tiny, innovative houses on wheels, converting their clients’ dreams of living a simpler life in a tiny house into a real, livable reality.

The client specifies what they have in mind, what style, size, or material as well as all the other details, and he does the rest. While they normally complete the house, making it move-in ready, they can also create just a ‘shell’ if the client wants to engage their own creativity and DIY skills and do the interior work themselves. Their partner company produces custom trailers for each tiny house they make.

Artist Craig Pleasants was way ahead of the tiny housing trend. He designed and built his first tiny house, called the Octagonal Living Unit, in 1981 using salvaged and found materials and lived in it for three years. The house, which is as much a piece of art as it is a home, stirred great interest, so Craig developed an affordable kit for a 450-square-foot highly energy-efficient house that four people can put together in a day.

The Sculptor House kit consists of the pre-finished high tech insulated panels for the roof as well as the walls, roof beams, siding material, low-energy doors and windows, roofing material, and the fasteners necessary to put the house together. There is no waste – everything is pre-cut and fits together perfectly. As it has been designed by an artist, the house is beautiful both inside and out, full of light, and appears much larger due to both the lack of 90-degree corners and the cathedral ceiling in one half of the house.

After 20 years of designing and building their widely acclaimed cottages, these builders decided to make them for everyone and came up with ESCAPE; as beautiful as the famous cottages, but affordable and portable. Designed by award-winning architects from SALA and hand-crafted in America in their factory in Rice Lake, Wisconsin, each ESCAPE is incredibly comfortable and built to last with a focus on eco-conscious building and energy efficiency.

ESCAPE is about making small spaces feel spacious and beautiful. They deliver almost anywhere in the States using their own trucking company. Each ESCAPE comes with an established floorplan and layout, but customers can decide what goes into the tiny home.
