Introduction
Our world is changing at a pace unheard of ever before with events and phenomena unfolding across the globe and the human race witnessing advancements across all arenas of life. As our needs evolve, so are house designs evolving globally. Designing outside of the box has become increasingly important as the focus is shifting to increasing climatic responsibility, decreasing land availability, and economic feasibility. It is inevitable today to utilize space efficiently and effectively that not only fulfills our needs and anticipates our desires but also moves the world towards sustainability.
With the environmental and financial setbacks that we face today in the dawn of a new pandemic age, the desire to have more freedom has led people to follow simpler and more efficient ways of living.
Now with the effects of the pandemic and other factors in recent years the home environment is more critical than ever.
In addition to shelter, a home must serve as an office, a full-time kitchen, an entertainment area, and a place for peace. Having one home act in all these roles is a challenge that designers have to cater to for a variety of spatial experiences. It is time to put our creative and innovative devices to use and to craft a very intimate, providing, and nurturing experience- A Home!
The Tiny House Movement, once again, celebrates the concept of simple yet resourceful living. The homes can be designed to re-imagine sustainability through the concept of maximum usable space in a minimum footprint.
Living Small, Yet Living It All!
