it’s a tiny tuesday update! 😀
i have made a lot of changes to my adorable tiny home, but i wanted to share these fotos so you can see the progression 🙂
main entrance, with ladder leading to loft…
computer desk to the right… it’s kind of like having an “office” 😉
behind my “office” – an open space and area for coats, etc. Continue reading
sometimes when living and/or working in/with small spaces, practicality typically outweighs aesthetics…however, that is not the case in the amazing tiny home i live in.
🙂
this week, i wanted to focus on some of the features that make this home extra cool and special. the builder thought of everything to make it functional and practical while keeping the visual appeal as well as the modern-meets-mountain feel.
one of my favourite things in the kitchen is the sink! for one, i love a stainless steel sink. so easy to clean and just looks sharp, right?! this one is complete with garbage disposal and stretchy-faucet hose thing. i love those, too!
and i love this second little sink to the left… so practical that it doubles as a colander! can also use it to dry dishes or rinse veggies prior to cooking. genius. Continue reading
i have never been THE FIRST at anything… at least not to my knowledge…
i mean, i have lots of original photographs i’ve captured… many of which may be the “only” of their kind… but i’ve never really been the FIRST at anything i’ve done… until now.
i am the first and only person to live in this new mini home. now, i’m not fortunate enough to own this lovely home, but i am the first person to officially reside in it – on gorgeous private property with a river in my backyard and endless hills surrounding every corner. it feels pretty incredible to be the first person to live here. i’m grateful to have met the builder last year… we remained in contact and he updated me on the home this summer, when it was just about complete. everything sort of fell into place, guiding me to these hills and to this home. i’m taking it all one day at a time and just soaking up each gloriously relaxing moment in my new environment… and one thing i love about living here – I SLEEP SO GREAT!
when i wrote about my visit in september was when i fell in love and knew i had to follow my heart to the rocky mountains…
here are some detail shots of some of my favourite features inside this amazing home.

this is the main living space… upon entering, there is a small foyer. i have moved some things around, but wanted to give you all an idea of how this looks before and after 🙂 Continue reading
i love a minimalist lifestyle.
ever since i sold all my stuff and moved to NYC in 2008, the idea of a minimalist lifestyle started to appeal to me more and more. as years have progressed, i’ve found myself actually downsizing even more. it’s very liberating to be able to fit everything you own into a 5-piece suitcase set and the back of your subaru.

i’ll have a story to tell soon behind this little house… for now, i just want to share the fotos of where i stayed on vacation last weekend on the beautiful western slope of the rocky mountains. this home sits on private property with the roaring hills steps away, as its backyard. i am not certain of the square footage, but it i’m guessing it’s around 300, including the loft. the living space is maybe 200 square-feet? but it is so well-designed, one still feels open within the space. plus, all you have to do is open the door and you’re in the biggest open-space ever… 😀
i just fell in love with this place.
how could you not?!
complete with patio and furniture, outside heater… Continue reading
