In the first floor of my house, I have a basic kitchen setup as well as a bathroom and work desk. The kitchen is meant to have a single oven, a microwave, a dishwasher, a cooktop on the island, and a dish sink. A fridge would sit next to the stairs, near the bathroom wall. The table seats four somewhat well. The floor size is 14’x13′. The second floor is very simple – it contains a bed, a dresser, a washer, and a dryer. It has windows facing the sunrise, and it is roughly 6’6″x14′. The ‘needs’ of this house are lighting (both natural and artificial), running water, a cooking area, a bathroom, and a sleeping area. Aside from that, the ‘wants’ include a desk and some more kitchen appliances, as well as a washer and dryer (technically wants b/c you can wash clothes with a washboard etc.)

This description/walk through of  the house is based on the image shown above. To the right there is a paved driveway. Connecting to the driveway is a walkway that leads to the front door as well as to the back of the house. Past the front door the pathway leads to an outdoor bar. This bar contains a fire brick oven, a grill, a fridge, and of course a bar and 4 seats to sit at. To the right of the bar there is a full-size fireplace. Around this fireplace are chairs and a couch to sit on while enjoying the warmth of the fireplace. Now to the inside of the house. Through the front door to the right is the kitchen.

When you first walk up to my front door, you will notice a large covered porch on the right, followed by my electric sports car. In my backyard, you will find a trampoline, hammock, and my garden where I will grow all my own vegetables and herbs.

After walking in, my mud room is on the right. It connects to my covered garage/porch so I can access my storage easily. In the mud room, I have a washer, dryer, and a closet to hang up coats and store shoes.

As you continue to walk through the first floor, my kitchen is on the right. I have a small stool by the window to eat my meals when I’m alone. On the left, I have my family room with a tv and couch. Behind that is my dining room with 4 chairs so when I have guests over, I can accommodate them for dinner.

If you continue to the second floor, you come to my bedroom. I have a desk on the right with my laptop. On the left I have my armoire to keep my clothes in.  You will notice my two queen beds so I can have someone spend the night.

When entering through the front door of the house, to your left there is a kitchen with complete appliances to cook and store food.  To your right there is a bathroom with a sink and toilet.  As you enter towards the back of the home couch is set with television and a fireplace.  There is a staircase that will lead to the upstairs of the home.  Upstairs is the main bathroom, filled with another toilet and sink, as well as a shower and a washing machine to clean clothes.  There is also a closet for clothing and storage.  Upstairs there is bed to sleep in.  Outside is a backyard to spend time outdoors.

In my house I have various forms of wants and needs.  The needs that I have available are running water, a shower, a bed to sleep in, a toilet, and somewhere to cook food.  I also have some wants inside of the tiny homes such as a bathroom upstairs and downstairs, a washing machine and a television.

When you walk through the front door of my tiny house you see a little open space next to drawers and a bathroom. I left some open space right in the front of the house so that guests or the person living there has some room to walk in and kind of put stuff down if they want. These drawers are for really anything, but since they are relatively close to the bed, they are intended for things like clothes. Next to the drawers you have the bathroom. It is a small bathroom, but it has all the necessities. It has a shower that is curved to save space instead of having a standard square or rectangular shaped one. On either side of the shower are the sink and the toilet. There is plenty of space in the middle for someone to move around if they needed. The next room over is the “bed room.” this is in quotations because it really isn’t a room. It is a bed with two walls on either side as sort of privacy thing. It kind of keeps the bedroom cleaner by not having access to it from every angle of the house. Next is a small living room area with a TV and a coffee table used as a dining table because I personally think that you don’t need a dining room table. It is just a lot of wasted space. The kitchen area is next to that which as a large fridge and freezer, with an oven and stove. Next is a microwave and the faucet. Despite hours spent looking, I could not find a kitchen sink anywhere, but rather bathroom sinks which I guess could work better than nothing, so that’s why there’s a bathroom sink in my kitchen. I threw in spiral stairs to save space because it goes straight up rather than moving side to side. When you take the stairs upstairs you enter a spacious looking room. This is the office/hangout space. There is a desk an office chair for work and important things that need to get done. For stress relief or just hanging out there is a Foosball table and another TV and recliner couch. Next to the TV is a sliding door to a washer and dryer to save space and not have ugly washer and driers sitting out. There are also lots of windows to help with natural light that way you don’t need a lot of electrical lights.

Needs: Kitchen (appliances), bathroom, bed

I addressed these needs by putting in a refrigerator and freezer to store food which is a basic need. I addressed the need of a bathroom by putting in a place to bath wash and go to the bathroom. Although I could go outside it is much cleaner and more practical to have a bathroom inside. I also needed a bed to sleep on because in this day and age a place to sleep is a need and sleeping on the floor isn’t ideal.

Wants: TVs, reclining chairs, drawers, Foosball, washer and dryer, computer and desk

These are all things that I simply wanted in my tiny house to make my living space more ideal for me. I have TV’s because almost every person in America who owns a home owns a TV. I also wanted reclining chairs to relax. I have a Foosball table because it’s just something fun to do in the house. I realize I don’t need a washer, dryer, computer, and desk but I feel like it is very ideal and almost needed for a house now a days. I could use paper and pens, but almost every place to work requires you to have a computer. I could also wash clothes by hand and hang them on clothing lines, but that just isn’t something that happens anymore.
