During retirement, Ken and Laurel downsized into a custom built tiny house in Escalante Tiny House Village to embrace community and enjoy the freedom of simple living. In this video they discuss working with the builder, and provide tips on how to re-design a tiny space to keep it feeling fresh.

the houses are SO CLOSE TOGETHER. yikes. no thanks! why cant they give them some space?
Cute place, love the kitchen and her colour palette.
Nice. I like 'Serendipity' from Adaluna on My Big Tiny House Life. Best floorplan yet. I would just add bump outs in her living room for a full couch and lazy boy.
Neighbors are way to close. How does she keep all her art dust free? Thats a lot of maintenance.
This is when you downsize and have difficulty letting go of items. She has way too many “things” in such a small place. It looks very cluttered. Hard to see the design flow when you’ve got something in every wall, shelf, nook and cranny. She needs to gift some of her glassware to her children.
What a great tiny house, my wife and I about the same age retired to a smaller home and love it.
Perfekt 😍 i like it absolute 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Great ideas… I applaud anyone who can make the minimalist transition. I have good friends who’ve done this and enjoyed a freedom many cannot fathom. Is this setup for me? Could I manage it? It all depends, I can see the neighbors being so close to be a possible problem… However, my friends who’ve made this transition to a minimalist lifestyle actually love it. They socialize and truly enjoy their community… It definitely is making me think…
IN This Particular Community the Home's are Way Too CLOSE !! Really L💜VE the TINY H🏡ME'S On a Private Lot. "Wonderful" and "Easy" Living.👍🏻Alot of them Have Plenty of Room Inside but just Have ALOT of CLUTTER. Then the Home Seem's Too Small. Don't Care for Color of Exterior Here. The Front Door is Great. Gotta' Have the Outdoor Space Where MOST of Our Time Would Really Be Spent.
I love how enthusiastic she is! I can tell she really loves her home
Congratulations and enjoy your lives 👏🏽
Nice house and she REALLY likes her choices…
One of the most beautiful tiny houses I've seen
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
nice
I love you tiny home and I love some of your ideas and our plan to borrow some of it building my tiny home thank you so much for sharing God bless you both Community healthy happy years and your tiny
You're beautiful great idea front door for one I hope to borrow. Ty
Nice. What is the brand name of the stove? TY.
Nicely thought out. Love all the special touches from your many travels; that does add more personality and warmth. With the homes so much closer together, it provides a more community feel.
It’s a tiny home, why do you need two big TVs? Also I think the air on is unnecessary, enough windows available to keep the air moving.
