"My family likes to brag about their grandma who lives in a tiny house."

We recently caught up with one of our clients to hear about her experience living in the tiny house we built for her and how she's made the space her own over the past year.

There's nothing more rewarding than seeing our clients settle into a home that's designed around their lifestyle and needs.

Stay tuned for a look inside and hear firsthand what life in a Nelson Tiny House is really like.

If you've been considering a tiny house, garden cabin or secondary dwelling on your property, give us a call or shoot us an email. We'd be happy to chat about your project.

Did you catch the guest cabin build in our previous post? One thing you might not realize is just how flexible these spaces can be.

This cabin was designed to do more than just look good. The layout can be configured in multiple ways to maximize every square foot and adapt to different lifestyles and needs. Whether it’s being used as a guest suite for visiting family, a short term rental, a home office, an art studio or even a private retreat space, the possibilities are endless.

With smart storage, multi-use spaces and thoughtful design, these smaller footprints can often do far more than people expect. That’s one of our favourite parts of designing custom spaces like this. Every build is tailored to how people actually want to live.

Could you see yourself using a space like this?

Here’s a walkthrough of a little guest cabin we recently finished. We built this on the same property as one of our tiny houses from a few years back.

Designed to feel warm, practical and connected to the landscape, this guest cabin adds extra room without losing the cozy feel.

If you’ve been thinking about a guest house, tiny home or a unique renovation, we’d love to hear your ideas. Shoot us an email, give us a call or book a consultation to chat through the possibilities.

Finished up this custom woodshed build last week!

The shed can comfortably fit a couple of chords of wood as well as spare garden equipment, helping to keep the yard organized and ready for the colder months. This project came together great with a clean design that fits naturally into the property.

Tiny house living doesn’t mean giving up a bathtub 🛁

We’ve designed layouts where a relaxing soak is still part of the routine, using full-size tubs!

It’s all about balancing space and comfort so you don’t have to compromise on the things you love.

Happy Earth Day! 🌎🏠 If you’ve been thinking about a tiny home, there’s never been a better reason to make the move.

Choosing to go tiny isn’t just a lifestyle shift, it’s one of the most practical ways to reduce your environmental impact without giving up comfort or quality of life.

Smaller homes require significantly fewer materials to build, less energy to heat/cool and naturally encourage more efficient use of water and power.

But the benefits go beyond the build. Living in a tiny home changes how you interact with your space. This leads to less waste, more intentional consumption and a closer connection to the world outside your door.

At Nelson Tiny Houses, we design homes that make sustainable living feel effortless. Thoughtful layouts, durable materials and efficient systems all work together to help you live comfortably while using less.

A tiny home isn’t just a smaller footprint, it’s a smarter one!

Throwing it back to a time we stepped outside the usual and took on something a little different! 🔨

This one was a fun challenge from start to finish.

Stay tuned for Part 2, where we’ll give you a glimpse inside… 👀

At Nelson Tiny Houses, every home we build is a collaboration. When our client, Kelci, showed us her driftwood collection, we knew we had to incorporate it into the design. The goal? Making each piece feel both intentional and functional. This is what we love most about what we do.

Many of our tiny houses wear shingles, not just for looks (though we love that timeless texture), but because they breathe, flex and age beautifully with the house. FUN FACT: Cedar shingles have been used for centuries because they naturally resist decay!
