# Recycled Material Tiny Homes The 'Tiny Tetra House' is Made with Recycled Tetra Cartons By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2020-08-17 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-tetra-house References: [homecrux](https://www.homecrux.com/stilt-studios-builds-tiny-tetra-house/144292/) & [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tinytetrahouse/design-meets-recycling) The 'Tiny Tetra House' is a [prefabricated tiny home](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vettel-haus) designed by Stilt Studios as a new take on conventional architecture that aims to create a living space with recycled materials in the mix. The home designed by the Bali-based studio features corrugated sheets that are crafted with [Tetra Pak drink containers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetra-pak-and-keter) to form the walls and roof. The living space is achieved with wood and glass as well to further accentuate the natural design of the compact structure. The 'Tiny Tetra House' is well-appointed with all the modern amenities that inhabitants would require and puts a focus on an [open-concept design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atlas-home). The 64-square meter living space is 100% waterproof to prevent the elements from getting inside and features a sloping roof that allows rainwater to be channeled for harvesting to water surrounding gardens.
