I'll get the glass pyramid onto the roof
Tiny House with daylight guarantee
On my search for special places with the most beautiful daylight, I came across the Tiny House Village in Mehlmeisel. I was completely surprised, as I had thought before that this living trend is mainly lived in America so far. So, I visited this village.
On my way there I was accompanied by questions like: How small is a Tiny House? Are barely 20 square meters really enough to live in? Maybe even together with your partner? Isn't it very cramped? And how much daylight comes in? Even though I have seen some photos of Tiny Houses before, I was worried that it might be quite dark. And living in a dark house? That would not be something for me.
There arrived I took a deep breath. I think you have no other choice than to take a deep breath - that's how fresh the air is on this former campsite that Steffi and Philipp bought for their Tiny House Village. And the Tiny Houses? They are tiny cosy houses on wheels, with big windows. Not, as I had feared, with porthole-like peepholes through which hardly any daylight enters. That's how you often see it in caravans. And then my imagination went crazy. How nice would a small house be that combines the most important things - kitchen, sanitary, living and sleeping area - for a reduced budget? I imagine it would be wonderful!
A retreat, a refuge, a creative oasis. Financing your roof over your head sustainably and on a tight budget. At first, 20 square meters or less sounded like a pretty cramped dwelling. But with a little creativity you can create impressive loft or maisonette solutions. The residents of the Tiny House Village are proof of this at the latest. But since there can never be enough daylight for me, my imagination continued to play: how about a glass pyramid as a roof over the bed, for example? I imagine that would be terrific. Enjoying the sun during the day while cooking. If it should be too much or too warm, I could simply close the shade.
When I lie in bed at night and the starry sky stretches out above me in all its glory? Or during the day the whole house is flooded with sunlight? On a rainy day, I would cuddle up in my pillows and read my latest literary output in bed, accompanied by a pleasant crackling sound. Nothing feels cramped any more. At the latest when I think of opening one or more wings of the glass pyramid to let fresh air into my Tiny House, it sounds like a wonderful solution to my search for my own little oasis. I'm sure: I'll get the glass pyramid onto the roof! Daylight in the Tiny House guaranteed.
