There’s something pretty special about working with someone you love to create a big project—especially when the “big” project needs to fit into a very small space. Today’s story features a mom and daughter who did just that. Together, they dreamed and designed the cutest little rustic-chic tiny home, and it’s only 406 square feet.
Arkansas residents Lauren Sivewright and her mom wanted to create a light and bright design to maximize the feel of their little cottage retreat. The charming cottage in the woods features a galley-style kitchen, a living room space, a little office nook, a canopy bed separated from the main space by privacy curtains, and even a washroom with a double vanity.
Lauren and her mom got creative when it came to storage solutions and furniture layout, which resulted in their cottage appearing far bigger than it actually is. They even managed to squeeze in a small dining set, electric fireplace, and laundry. There’s also a pullout bed underneath the main bed to provide extra sleeping space for guests.
What’s most impressive is how Lauren and her mom managed to fit full-size appliances (including a dishwasher!) into the kitchen design. The floor-to-ceiling shelves offer lots of storage space, and the beadboard details give the room a country-chic vibe. All in all, this cozy cabin turned out wonderfully. Props to Lauren and her mom for their ingenuity in this lovely little retreat!
