Robert and Samantha Sage have been exploring alternative living for decades.
In 2008 they packed up their Honda Civic to spend 30 days blazing trails coast to coast in the US, then did the vagabond thing in Europe just a few years later, hopping trains with their trusty hiking packs.
They’ve spent the last six years exploring just how much room you can find in a 200 sq ft space, converting their ‘Shed’ home into a gorgeous example of multi-use spaces.
Their fittings, fixtures, and furniture are attractive and always designed to maximize the space available.
They recently added a new member to the family and decided to upgrade to a ‘massive’ 665 sq ft apartment.

Shannon Soine has been living in a tiny home with her husband since 2016.
They’re no strangers to living in small spaces, having spent their honeymoon wandering the Pacific coast in their SUV to catch the next wave.
They’ve set up their life to allow travel without direction, whenever and wherever they want to go.
Their current home is a 210 sq ft tiny home that is set up to emphasize space and comfort.
It’s decked out with gorgeous little features in shades of white and gray that serve to maximize the natural light while still showing their personalities.
