I like the one-floor designs. One thing that bugs me about many of the "tiny" house designs is the crammed in loft sleeping area. As I get older I cringe at nightly trips up and down some steep ladder, to say nothing of trying to change bed linens in such a tiny space.
Most Tiny houses are not for older folks, or families. Even a couple will have to be VERY compatible. As I get older I find I really don't like ANYBODY enough that I want to bump into them every time I turn around. :P
For a younger single person tiny homes are great - and an inexpensive way to get a place of your own.
Amen to both the above. :) Hence a one story, no loft cabin for us, and one that is larger than we started out thinking would work.
Our family of four use to spend summers in a small cabin with a loft sleeping area. Everyone in the family fell down the loft ladder at least once. After a few years we took to sleeping on the porch and never used the loft. I can recall how small that cabin got when it rained for a week!
I lived in a small 5th wheel for a long time. The ritual of changing the bed linens was something I would never have wanted anyone to witness. Even in private I dreaded it.
