Even though it was designed for them, I think it can meet the needs of many. The spa is definitely an extravagence. But for me - I would need a different sleeping arrangement - climbing stairs at my age (and the physical condition of many others) seems to be the biggest drawback in a lot of tiny homes. I would love to see these two tackle that problem. I bet they could come up with a solution. For any tiny house, I think windows are one of the most important necessities. That this closet came with one was their biggest bonus.

People who can't climb a ladder could put a bedroom in the Spa place (unless your very long, because it is the dept of the cabinets shorter than the bedroom above).

How do they easily flip the mattress every few months? Do they ever fall off the ladder when going up and down in the middle of the night to the bathroom? As someone who isn't a fan of heights or ladders, that solution then would be scary for me.

The space reminds me of an apartment in Spain where it was slightly bigger but had that wall of storage that opened and transformed the space into different useful rooms. The cool thing they had was a large balcony or deck and the bed slid under it opening the space to be big enough to have an intimate party. I was very taken by that one. This one is similar but the spa is such an intentional space that it's really just Wow that you made that intentional decision. The only thing I'd want more of is comfort. The living room would not be a room I liked to be in with just 2 chair cushions for comfort. I would have liked to see the window bench developed a bit more to have more functionality and comfort. Storage in the bench and cushions and other comfy items inside. Or perhaps it could have had a step to set something on or that could slide under the bench when not needed. Otherwise very livable.
