Design Changes

So, I thought I was positive that I wanted my bedroom on the main floor of my tiny house. However, I recently had the opportunity to visit a tiny house that was 90% finished. Her tiny house had very do-able steps with a landing at the top instead of going straight to bed level. In addition, I realized that having the bedroom downstairs was limiting my everyday living space while having a loft area that I had planned to only use for guests (and I don't often have guests anyway) was really a wasted space. So I redesigned with the bathroom at one end and the kitchen underneath the loft.

My builder suggested that it would be easier to have all the plumbing closer together. And the location of the wheel wells would also impact the design. I have now done one with both the kitchen and a small bathroom under the loft and a bigger living room space. I am meeting the builder to see if this design is better and can be done in the available space. It may impact my barn door and "wall of whales" but we'll see.

Soon the build will begin and I won't be allowed to make any more changes :)
