Nils Holger Moormann is an incredibly [space-conscious designer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minuet). His 'Walden' home is three feet wide and two stories tall.

This house is definitely not built for people over six feet tall. Nils Holger Moormann 'Walden' was inspired by the nature-loving author Henry David Thoreau. This house is [small and mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mo5-450), which makes it perfect for nature lovers like Thoreau.
