After years of dreaming about tiny house living, Katie has created a home that is so much more than just a beautiful tiny house. This is a sanctuary, a space designed around who she is, how she lives, and what she needs to feel calm, grounded and at home.
Built from a shell and lovingly fitted out over several years, Katie’s tiny house is full of thoughtful DIY details, salvaged timber, soft textures, clever storage and beautiful open spaces. From her wellness deck and kitchen garden to the bright interior, curved bathroom wall and cozy movie loft, every part of the home reflects her creativity and personality.
For Katie, this tiny home has also been a place of healing. Through life changes, injuries, surgeries and the everyday challenges of ADHD, the home has become a space where she can recover, create and reconnect with herself. As she beautifully puts it, this house is a love letter to herself.
