If you’re in the market to become a homeowner, but the prices are too high, you might be interested in getting yourself a tiny house. And, remember, just because it is small doesn’t mean it can’t be luxurious. Designer Chris Heininge has turned 280 square feet into a beautiful haven with everything from a kitchen and bathroom to a second-story bedroom.
Chris Heininge – this 280-square-foot “Tiny House” creator – comes from a family of gifted craftsmen, artists, and designers.
At 17 years old, Chris spent many years living in Japan as a Christian Missionary. The Japanese are masters at living “tiny,” and they do it beautifully and simplistically – a significant influence in the design of Chris’ Tiny House.
