It can also sleep up to four people in a snug environment. Notably, most [tiny homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-birdy) are not designed for hosting guests but the Buttercup has enough space to host a small dinner party. It is meant to be a [vacation home](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chipper-bnb) rather than something for full-time. It rests on top of a double-axle trailer and is made with engineered wood cladding complete with a metallic roof on top. The home is fuelled by a standard RV-style addition. When entering the home, guests are met with the [living room filled with light](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/long-black) and vinyl flooring.
