A 400 Square Foot Design and Build by Joseph Chiarucci

[@kyte7204]

I like how he got to the point and showed the whole place while demonstrating where stuff was. Glad I didn't have to sit through 10 minutes of how he researched his toilet, in this one.

[@thedahakha]

I've been on a tiny house KZbin streak, and i gotta say this is one of the coolest

[@internationalmp3club886]

Yeah me too

[@m.luisam.5484]

Roy Wardenaar Sameeee!!!!

[@charlenedortch876]

You and me both that is the cutest little 400 ft apartment I've ever seen totally unique 💯

[@micahmitchell517]

ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS!! The presentation/demo is exceptional. Wow!! This is tightest design I've seen. The space is absolutely fantabulous!

[@cadillacglenn]

who gives this a thumbs down, this place is a great little home with very good use of space. Huge thumbs up

[@iahelcathartesaura3887]

Now this is my kind of comfy, opulent, half zen & half fancy dorm room, everyday style tiny house. Very well done! Love the half door, the bed area, all of it. Absolutely ingenious design!

[@vwade3381]

I live in a carriage house with a Dutch door (split) and I never want to live without one again. I appreciate this design, because it is thoughtful. I've often thought ladders to get in and out of bed were horrible ideas. His catwalk requires more confidence at heights than I have, but the clean design and the lighting plan is splendid. The wet room bath reminds me of hotel accommodations throughout Europe. Great job.

[@rosaespinal7698]

This is one of THE best tiny apt homes I've seen to date. Thank you so much for posting, now I have an idea of what I want in mine, when I build it, that is. Awesome layout!!!!

[@jeremycable7922]

Very nice. I like how you've addressed some issues that other "tiny" house builders haven't. For example, the vacuum idea is awesome. also, the bathroom affords a little more privacy than some I've seen. Finally, I like that you have 400 square feet. It seems like some build small for the novelty of it... "how tiny can we possibly make it?" More like, how uncomfortable? Keep innovating! I love it!

[@wck766]

Brilliant design, clever! And yes, most would be too uneasy with the catwalk and no it wouldn't pass code but he's designed what works for *him* - youthful, limber, good balance, clearly it meets his needs. I especially love the central vac, have no doubt it has an access panel on other side of the wall for maintenance. Blown away by how much living he's packed into this design, I've been researching for many months and this is one of the best designs I've seen! Seriously impressed. Great job!

[@capXstar]

I like this place a lot. I have no real complaints except he's just tracking more dirt with his outdoor shoes while he vacuums. THUMBS UP THOUGH :D

[@yvonnedrysdale6023]

Great little place. Love the bedroom. Wonderfully silent video instead of having really tinny, annoying background music that detracts from the beauty of the video and overloads and insults the senses! Great place. Bravo

[@marks3478]

Brendan,As soon as I saw the upstairs bathroom, I had to share this with my gf. She has been looking at quite a few. She kept sayingshe didn't want to walk downstairs in the middle of the night to pee. Now she won't have to. Thanks!!

[@psychobunny32]

I love how the stairs are hidden behind the wall. the upstairs area is beautiful. the catwalk looks a little nerve-wracking without some sort of plexiglass rail. I love the high ceilings and open space. very nice.

[@lovelygeorge1950]

Me too...

[@LeafySpreads]

I love the quiet, the smart design of vacuum-cleaner, and the beautifully tiled washroom.

[@gourleygirldebbie]

one if the best small living spaces ever!!! I totally love it. great job!

[@theresakim1747]

I just watched this video for the 4th time. It really inspires me to design and build something small and, yet, have all that I need. Nice design, although I would be too scared to walk on that beam on the loft. I see ample storage spaces and unique use of spaces. The door, lights, simple but functional bathroom, built-in vacuum cleaner... everything!

[@wu_v]

😍😍😍😍😍Love how big it feels & the access to so much natural lighting!

[@jmatt4life]

Absolutely AWESOME! This is a totally masculine space with some surprising perks. Well done!!!

[@jmatt4life]

Almost forgot! Of course, my favorite part is the catwalk across entire length of house. Very handy and useful, unique extra!!!

[@achanwahn]

Lol. The vacuum is insanely cool. Did not see that coming. Awesome!

[@celiashen5490]

Thanks for showing and not telling. I get the space so much better this way, thank you.

[@Sheilamaizi]

Love, Love, Love it!!!! Your are amazing Joe!!!!

[@maxilove2learn782]

This is by far the nicest tiny house I've seen!

[@theresaast7049]

Fabulous design. Opens up so many possibilities for similar spaces. Love the split door. :)

[@cindygleason7700]

This is the coolest tiny house I've seen. Great layout!

[@gaillewis5472]

This is a phenomenal use of space. I'm really impressed with the stairs, since most tiny homes rely on ladders. The teensy studio is a great touch.

[@isaacduenas668]

This is inspirational, I love the layout and functionality. Great job!

[@toma9326]

first reaction: "YAY! no obnoxious song!" second: "this is getting kinda creepy..." that being said, i'm definitely glad that plant was moved.

[@ItsNotMeItsYou007]

lol

[@ange2662]

LMAO!

[@ravholly]

This is the best small house design I have seen!

[@NinjaFlipsTV]

agreed

[@DistantEarlyWarning611]

Absolutely the best one I've seen.

[@sandramay8208]

Yep the best

[@alicew8070]

it has a high ceiling. Assume the guy is 180cm and there is 15cm left, then the ceiling is 390cm high. That make it more space for the room.

[@julianroberts1596]

Thank god he moved the plant I hated where it was lol

[@bigred3096]

lol

[@Angela-Renae]

Julian Roberts lol

[@paulagremour8028]

lmbo

[@ethelzenahall3487]

+Julian Roberts I can't stop laughing at your comment.

[@wtf-px8en]

LOL thought I was the only one who noticed. Like what was that for??

[@Serene6703]

I love the way the space was used , I hate open lofts and the way he has it makes it feel like an entirely separate room..even if guests do have to go thru the bedroom to use the bathroom , it's still much better. He even has a small stage above the living room! lol. Loved it!

[@kobracom77]

This is one of the best Tiny Houses, I have seen on KZbin mang, awesome job.....

[@cminmd0041]

Really cool and I like how you found a way to include very specific storage to suit your needs like the snowboard drawer.

[@SmilesNPeace2U]

I love your design! You have made some excellent creations! Thanks for sharing your home with us! Blessings... :-)

[@klevy941]

You did an amazing job, I love the vacuum , you little neat freak.... love it

[@mrsshotze]

Might possibly be my favorite tiny house ever!

[@angelinam504]

This is such guy's place! Awesome! I wish my man lived in a home like this, rather than us living in the same house. Enigmatic. Besides it's an obviously no wife-no kids space too. Which makes me think the person there doesn't have issues with being abandoned or alone. A perfect friend or lover! Cool.

[@bay4west]

Very cool. I like the walkway above, different. The bathroom is great. Excellent design. Thanks for sharing.

[@Haroldjasonlentz]

This place is completely AWESOME!

[@richardcastellon8557]

One of the coolest I've seen but I think I would do a spiral staircase and a bigger bathroom

[@kellyjsaunders]

one of the best I've seen. Congratulations!

[@macfeist]

Very, very nice. Love the vacuum...great touch!

[@whatever1942]

Love this design...except for the walk of death to the music area

[@leeluv96]

whatever, it's highly unlikely that you would die from that height but you'd sure feel the pain!! 🤕

[@MegaKaitouKID1412]

It's possible though. It just takes landing at the wrong angle to break your neck or something, even if the fall is only one floor.

[@daveywaves5325]

More like walk of nasty pain!

[@cece354]

You would think they make the walkway wider with some railing for safety.

[@freddyrosenberg9288]

You can fix that by filling the first floor full of packing peanuts or bubble wrap.

[@klevy941]

I love it.. love the long drawers up stairs, I would have to put a railing at my age, but you did an amazing job, well done...

[@x5lyfui]

Amazing! I especially love the upstairs!

[@PassaFloraElle]

Very custom for his life it seems. I would have a slightly larger kitchen instead of such a large desk area. I would also like some more seating downstairs. The bed design is nice with the large storage drawers underneath. I would also prefer the toilet outside of the shower and sacrifice the seating/storage in the bedroom. This is a very cool design. :)

[@shilpipal3717]

Marvelous.... Extremely impressed.... I am inspired to make home like yours. Thank you for sharing such creative house.

[@WanieB]

really nice use of space and lighting. really like the can lights and the vacuum.

[@4everHolySpirit]

Beautiful! Can tell a lot of time & energy building your tiny house! Good job!

[@KerrieRedgate]

Great use of space here. I live in less than 400 sqr feet, but I like this layout with the loft. The high ceiling in the living area looks spacious and frees up the energy and light. Love the wood! Yes, I agree with many of you, the little plank walkway to the music hub is a bit "sterky"!

[@johnj1166]

most awesome tiny house I have ever seen!

[@bfinfinity]

He doesn't call it a "tiny house" and it is disqualified for WASTING all that space that could have been another room. He simply calls it a 'design' by someone. It's a very wasteful floor plan energy wise, and would have been significantly larger had the floor been added to the high ceiling area where the cat walk is.

[@jenniferwoods6766]

bfinfinity Or maybe the open space is to give the feeling of openness? That doesn't make it wasteful. It's a personal design choice. I like the idea, and it looks good, but I'd be a little too concerned about misstepping and falling off that narrow catwalk.

[@itzyabui]

bfinfinity i agree. Bathroom is tiny also because of that weird closet area where a snowboard pulls out of the drawer.

[@atsernov]

a bui That weird closet area where the snowboard pulls out of is the bed. It's under bed storage. Though the bathroom could have been made larger by utilizing the odd storage area at the end of the catwalk.

[@andrewwastney9228]

so nice not having some amateur munt on about there life story !!! best vid iv seen!

[@djpitr]

The best mini house i seen, thanks for sharing

[@Shadow2084]

That cat walk is an awesome part of the overall design.

[@gingin4471]

That catwalk 😍😍😍 My cat will be happy to live here with me

[@TheMusachioedBrony]

I love it!! Well, all except the wet bath. I once stayed in a small guest cottage in Italy that had one of these, and I don't know if it wasn't designed right, but the whole thing was an absolute mess! You couldn't have a towel or any clothing in there, because literally every square inch of the bathroom got soaking wet. That meant after your shower you were wiping down the entire bathroom, including all over the toilet, so it could be used as a toilet room again. Not exactly what I want to be doing after I just got clean taking a shower-cleaning the bathroom from ceiling to floor. Plus they only gave us one puny towel each for bathing-what were we supposed to use to dry off the bathroom? Additionally, when taking a shower the water poured out from under the door into the room!! I was stuffing the door bottom with my dirty clothes to prevent the nice wood floors from getting soaked!! What a God awful mess!!

[@gandalfgaming8592]

This house is LUXURY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@IBRAHIM701000]

That's like the best house I have ever seen... But single life....

[@fudge9262]

Love the design, It does not seem like it is a small home at all. it seems so spacious. I like that you have full head height in the bedroom, it is bigger than my bedroom and more storage.

[@hyobee9238]

Pretty cool and awesome to have the toilet and shower together instead of creating space!! I like it!! My question is… For the vacuum, where does all dirt goes to? Under the house/apartment? All in all, I love the design and layout, especially the bathroom!!

[@virginiaipazia6149]

Splendida , un equilibrio perfetto fra eleganza e praticità, un miracolo!

[@sshum00]

How practical is having the vacuum embedded in the wall? Any maintenance issues? How do you change the filter?

[@anacee]

Go outside, take it out of the vacuum cleaner and so on. I don't think it's locked in ghe wall.

[@knit1purl1]

It's not my aesthetic but it's still cool. My cats would love the cat walk but I wouldn't dare walk on it myself.

[@blackplague614]

Amazing great use of space. I really like the catwalk.

[@patriciaking7892]

By far the neatest!

[@porygonL]

This is amazing! I'd like to leave here!

[@barbaraarmann4829]

totally AWESOME!!!...I just LOVE this!!!....WOW!!!

[@Lucuskane]

The future of housing, I love it.

[@ti994apc]

I would need a washer/dryer of some kind. I might trip upstairs. Although not an issue for most people, a toilet in the shower freaks me out. I think its very cool when people make the house the way they want it. Good job Joseph.

[@patriceroysdon4153]

Wow, this is beautiful. Thanks for sharing

[@nenitawillkom1913]

wow! this is much more u can say a house, more space, love it.

[@onolennonsf]

Love that the bathroom is by the bedroom. :)

[@tommcinerney8721]

Love it Brendan !

[@theangrypenguino]

Thanks Tom!

[@lizard1971]

I can see myself falling right into the living room!

[@YvoDLuke]

I love the design idea, instead of a desk for just computers I would have my sewing machines set up there so that I could quilt, sew or just do crafts. Plus I would have had quite a few more plants all over. I also would have had a regular bathroom, because I like nice size bathrooms. Id like the plans so that one day I too can have this house design!!!

[@Chattty11]

Great design! The only thing I would change is adding a support to the beam you walk on, it already is sloping when he walks on it :-o

[@ange2662]

Agreed. I noticed it bouncing a bit myself!

[@MegaKaitouKID1412]

The board having spring in it doesn't mean it's going to collapse. It is nerve-wrecking to watch, though.

[@tamaraweber3296]

This is so unique so spacious I love it.

[@ShipCreek]

beautifully designed. A very liveable space.

[@wowwee0]

Finally, a small space my cat and I could comfortably live in.

[@shanikapinder2880]

Looks amazing . Although it's small it looks big and roomy

[@rfield3100]

what a beautiful well planned house

[@richardgrzela1381]

Very cool - Well done! The bathroom must be Public pool inspired- Very cool. The rest is very Well planned out space usage.

[@KaraTowner]

Wow great home! Well done!

[@penelopecruise4793]

Space seems so much bigger. I like the levels.

[@markarciaga2498]

This is the coolest house ever

[@deniselynn7944]

This is the best tiny home every so cool!

[@discourius26]

Very cool layout. My only turnoff about it was that everything was very clean cut until the vacuum, I would have expected to see a grommet of some sort around the hole to give it a finished look.

[@SacTownbeatz916]

This home or apts remind me of some of the homes in Brazil ( micro aptos) . This one is one of the most unique and cool tiny but still not cramped up space I have seen so far, the catwalk is actually the solid wood spot light beam he was walking on, pretty cool. If I could ever afford to buy land I would definitely hire this guy.

[@bentewarenburg5866]

madly in love with the sleeping/bathroom area

[@rosebrandenburg7]

The vacuum built into the wall is sexy as hell. I want to build something like this! Wonderful design!

[@bigred3096]

love the way you utilized the shower with toilet and sink in one... very smart....

[@1943maryellen]

Very different, interesting I don't like loft beds, but love the way they did this!

[@JJoeisCooking]

When I started watching this, I didn't think I would like it because I don't really like the loft idea. This design gave a separate sleeping space upstairs that was safe to access (no ladder) where you could actually stand, and had a full bathroom. Very nice design.

[@jasonahbh4880]

Best design. I really like your design;) Keep it up always. All the best.

[@deborahhopper1070]

This is so cool, so creative.

[@yizhang5330]

great design and really personalized, like it
