The smallest residential private houses

This is without a doubt the smallest house on the planet. There is simply nowhere less. The area of ​​the house, created by the German architect Van Bo Le-Menzel, is only one “square”. To get enough sleep, you have to flip it horizontally. Conveniently, the house has wheels and fits into the lift and trunk of a car. Of course, this structure cannot be called a full-fledged house, but as an example of minimalism, the structure serves well.

The smallest house in the United Kingdom. This is a “fishing house” with dimensions of 1.8 by 3.05 m. The ground floor was occupied by a place for cooking, a water tank and a bunker with coal. The second floor is reserved for a living room. It’s amazing that in the 19th century, a family of eight was placed in the house! Already in 1900, a museum was created in the building.

Tokyo again. The house is unusual in that it is built on a triangular plot and follows its shape. On an area of ​​29 “squares” it was possible to place not only a kitchen and a living room, but also two bedrooms, a nursery and even a garage. The house is residential, it is occupied by a family of three.

A vivid example of how an unusual house can be built in an unusual place for a construction site. A very picturesque coast in Canada has become the site of the construction of a small but very interesting house, which has very modern forms.

House container in Portugal. The use of rail and sea containers for the transport of goods as a residential building is not new. Remember the trailers familiar to many Russians at their dachas. Conveniently, you don’t actually need to build anything – just provide a site for the container, which is converted into a cozy private house.

And here you can clearly see what the layout of a container house can be. The warm climate made it possible to make separate exits from each room – shower room, kitchen, bedroom, dressing room. And it was decided to move the living room to fresh air..

Germany. The house looks like a dollhouse, but there is also a sleeping place, a dining area, and where to work with a laptop.

However, adults will also want to retire to such a picturesque and unexpectedly comfortable home..
