The 'Ruru' tiny home is a compact house designed with efficiency, comfort and airiness in mind to help its inhabitants never feel too crowded despite its small footprint. The home measures in at 33-feet in length and features two lofts with one on either end that function as the bedroom and the living room, respectively. Each of these lofted areas feature ample headroom to increase the overall feeling of spaciousness, while the main floor has a full kitchen, dining room, bathroom and French doors that open up to the deck in the front and mudroom in the rear.
The 'Ruru' tiny home packs storage throughout the space and prides itself on not feeling too small despite the modest amount of floor space it offers.
