American enthusiasts especially succeeded in this skill, among them was a creative designer Lina Menard. She who independently planned and created a pretty comfortable and pretty micro-dwelling "Lucky" with an area of 9.3 square meters. m.
The active followers of the Tiny House movement are so fascinated by the development of mini-houses, which reduced their residential apartments to the size of the tiny storeroom or cabins. And what is the most interesting, they managed to equip their micro-cottages so that the owners of full-size standard apartments / houses may envy comfort and comfort.
On the pages of Novate.ru you can see unique projects of tiny houses, but also a charming house designed and created by the creative designer Lina Menard (Lina Menard) deserves special attention, because the relationship-comfort ratio really admire.
Despite the fact that its micro-house "Lucky" is located on the territory of the parking lot of SIMPLY Home Community in Portland, it is clearly allocated on their background. And not only an extravagant appearance attracts attention, it causes great interest to its size, because many non-complaints, as on an area of 9.3 square meters. m. You can post everything you need for a full-fledged stay of a young girl.
As Lina is recognized, such a project and complete minimalism arose not on an empty place and not just like that. She has been fond of construction and arrangement of tiny houses for more than one year, and it makes it professionally in the staff of Niche Consulting LLC. It was then that was the desire to have similar apartments. At that moment, when an active girl was tired of paying a considerable rent for someone else's apartment, she decided to build their own housing, especially since she was familiar to the process of designing, calculations and construction.
Lina wanted to create a special home in the form of a Gypsy van, so its area corresponds to such a specific mobile home. She understood this after she calculated everything to a millimeter, because she did not need a larger space. In order to save maximize, the girl as a building material was trying to use recycling, this most applies to the wooden interior and exterior, elements of furniture and a small platform acting as a porch.
Old doors thrown on the garbage pad and old wooden window frames went to move. Initially, the garage shot the garage to assemble the frame and most of the details of the house of Lina, while he tried to save the most and on builders. And in order to quickly finish the project of his tiny house called "Lucky Penny" (in a simplified version of the "lucky"), the inventive master arranged working parties or picnics.
The only thing that on such days she had to be worn on coffee with sandwiches, and who remained to work until the evening - fed a full dinner. Due to the fact that her inspiration and excitement was transferred to friends and just familiar, construction and planting micro-apartments moved very quickly. Although such collective work Lina and voluntary assistants could only deal on weekends. For the entire construction process, several times had to suspend work due to the fact that there was a need to invite professionals, but with most operations a passionate young people coped herself.
When the frame was ready, Lina Menard decided to transport him to the location of the permanent deployment - to the parking lot allocated to the parking lot of the SIMPLY Home Community residential vehicles. Since this territory has long been used by lovers and admirers of tiny houses, it is already fully refined. There are general showers, toilets, kitchen, there is even an improvised parking for bicycles. Parking is equipped with electricity, water supply and sewage communications to which each residential object and common areas can be connected.
This location has much simplified construction work, because electricity and water were needed constantly. As the girl planned to live in his micro-apartments all year round, she tried them to warm them up and insulating them. To increase energy efficiency, the SIP panel and a special waterproof sealant used, which prevents air and water penetration into the room.
As already mentioned, the girl for the inner and outer cladding used the natural tree, which was originally carved and was laid in a special way. This made it possible to create a non-standard exterior, which was especially pleased with the girl, because she always liked round wooden elements that she calls "pennies". It was them that became the main decoration of the facade, organically connected with the form of the house, created in the style of classic Wardo (traditional wagon-blinding horses used by the gypsies as a house).
Peculous "pennies" turned into a binding decorative element between cedar tiles and a wooden trim. Such rounded shapes can be seen in the design of the front door and the windows, on the back wall. The rest of the windows both on the facade of the house and on the roof (this is its special pride) professional designer made a standard rectangular shape.
Due to the arched roof at the highest point, the height of the ceilings is 3.66 m., Which allows you to get a more voluminous space, so being inside there is no sensation of limitedness and tightness. Moreover, the Lofov zone girl did not do to visually not turn his house in Konur.
Only a portion of the side walls, it involved in the small depths with mounted cabinets, and the formed niche under the ceiling from the entrance of the house uses as a rather roomy open shelf for storing large and low-used things / items.
Lina's free from the windows and the doors did not climb the cabinets, she decided to replace them with a system of drawers of different height in the form of an improvised chest created in the form of a staircase. Several boxes serve as steps that allow you to get to the mounted cabinets located quite high. But the rest of the construction serves as an additional pleasure zone for its four-legged friend - the red pet cat Ruffy.
In order to share the floor area rationally, the bed was made on the podium, and the space under it is framed on the similarity of a large roomy sidewalk.
Of course, the girl did not forget about the kitchen, which decided to do in all the rules, so that no problems could be cooking homemade food. As a result, a kitchen set with outdoor couches, a working area, washing, a mini-fridge without a freezer, an induction cooking panel with one burner, a convection microwave, and was also able to attach a mini-freezer, but already on the table top.
In the cold season, it was possible to exist normally, it acquired an electrical heater, and an electric water heater was installed for a constant supply of hot water. So the girl can not only wash the dishes in warm water, but even take a shower, because in the hallway she managed to make a miniature shower with a deep pallet, which allows to take water procedures even sitting.
A creative girl who was often helped by the company of friends and like-minded people, it took more than a year so that she, together with her anyone, Rufffi, who had already remained unchanged her backwards, finally had a roof over her head. Despite the miniature dimensions of the tiny cottage "Lucky Penny", Lina Menard is incredibly happy that after a hard working day she returns to His own home.
Interesting information: Upon completion of the construction of Lina, the financial results, as it turned out, was 40.25 thousand dollars to all this event. It is including all building materials, rental of the garage, hiring specialists, delivery of materials and the house itself to parking space, lunches for friends, equipment and equipment.
If competently approach the layout and rationally use each centimeter of the available area, then and in the apartment of 14 square meters. m. You can live quite comfortable, The main thing is that it is in a good place.
