I am a big fan of Jay Schafer and his Tubleweed Tiny House Company. Jay founded the company in 2000, after having made the decision to inhabit only 89 square feet 3 years before. His philosophy is that one should “not maintain a lot of unused or unusable space.” I could agree more, though I think my personal “ideal sized” home is somewhere in the 800 suare-foot range. Thankfully, Tumbleweek makes and sells plans for homes anywhere from 40 – 950 square feet. Below are a few of my favorites. Learn more by visiting http://www.tumbleweedhouses.com/.

One of my favorite cottage stories comes courtesy of Coastal Living Magazine. The Cabot Cove Cottages in Kennebunkport, ME, epitomize the term “cozy coastal cottage.” This group of cottages was built in the 1950s, and had fallen into disrepair over the past few decades. 16 designers took it upon themselves to make over each cottage, creating “a magical village, on a modest budget.”
