At first, moving into a tiny house may look very exciting. People may be drawn to live in small places by wanting to live a minimalist, eco-conscious life. The concept itself is not a bad one but you need to be mentally prepared to do that.

If you are the kind of person that loves spending time outdoors, lives life at its simplest, it might be the best choice for you! One gets a positive charge if one can communicate through his way of life, through his home, the values that are important to him. It will also require creativity and thoughtful planning and that will hold up the excitement even longer.

As this is exciting but not easy, this article will give you an insight of how to be creative when furnishing a tiny house.

If you want to create the feeling of space in a small home, you have to create open spaces and have to be very innovative when finding the best storage opportunities.

First we recommend getting rid of stuff that you don’t really need, making an inventory of the things that are crucial to you in your daily living, going from room to room. Let’s not forget that you not only need to cleverly think up your space but you are also an eco-conscious person so you have to think of solutions that make your concept come to life. So, if you were to take it step by step this would be a second step to take when going tiny.

In this matter take into consideration the glazing of the windows of the house. This means having big glass (window) surfaces for it is important not just to let the light in but also to let the solar radiation heat your house in the winter. For the glazing of the windows you must calculate the solar angles, taking into consideration the fact that the same sunlight that comes through and lightens your house in the summer will heat your house in winter.

In this way you will save a lot of energy and your carbon footprint will be way smaller. To complete this, you may also consider putting on some solar panels to heat the water.

After all this you may begin with creating the inside. Think about clever places to hide your stuff. Look for furniture that can double as storage such as ottomans with hidden cavities or bunk beds with under-bed storage areas or under the staircase.

Decoration can also create the feeling of space. That is painting the walls in lighter colors and using light colored furniture. Although you need to use light colors because of the feeling of space, don’t miss the opportunity to show off your personal style. You can also combine it with great lightning opportunities.

Well placed mirrors can help increase light and the feeling of space. To separate spaces, you can cleverly use furniture to do that: such would be corner lounge suites, or bookcases.
