The Dream Simple Life In A Handcrafted Tiny Home

[@livingbig]

It’s go good to be back with our very first episode of 2024. This year is shaping up to be a big one with lots of things to look forward to in tiny house world. We loved visiting Kate and Benoît. They are such a positive and capable couple who aren’t afraid to get stuck in and give something a go! The house they have built for themselves is absolutely stunning and a testament to their creativity and willpower. Enjoy the tour! With Love, Bryce & Rasa

[@anoch1651]

And their creation deserved to be the very first one to get featured in 2024. Welcome back, Bryce and Rasa🥰

[@hamey]

We've missed you. 😊

[@kennyjensen8213]

Good to have you back 😊

[@Drea-lt6xh]

Happy New Year ❤ Great video to opened up with

[@Houseds]

I am enjoying life through tours from you. Looking forward to this new year, you will take us to visit many beautiful houses and share life experiences from the owners of those houses.

[@l.b.603]

I love this talented couple and how they completed each other's thoughts. They seem very happy and in tune together. So lucky to have such a talented, generous family as well. One of my favorites!

[@garotadagavea]

Yeah, their interaction is very well balanced.

[@laraffinee]

More like Kate interrupting Benoit all the time.

[@orlymolina6885]

Estoy totalmente de acuerdo, Jehová Dios los Bendiga

[@kristik4789]

@@laraffinee exactly! Found it a bit difficult at times as I just wanted Benoit to be able to finish his storyline :D Lovely couple never the less!

[@Karamelk4]

​@@laraffinee Exactly.

[@sharonthompson6293]

I absolutely love tinys that are lower budget ,salvaged materials, Homes like these show that quality does not need to be sacrificed to build a beautiful , affordable dwelling. Well done guys! Fabulous work of art !

[@WinnieLuthienThye]

This couple's eye for aesthetics and color palette is incredible! From the home to the tiniest details - the drawers, the jewelry stand and even the mugs, cutting board, kettles ... All stunning and aesthetically pleasing choices. And the framed drawings on the wall are lovely and whimsical. What a charming space!

[@JanesDough855]

The woodwork in this home is absolutely gorgeous! Very meticulously done! And better still that family helped, which means so much more. I could see this couple adding a roof over that front deck and making that into an outdoor living room. One of your previous videos had a woman who did that and it was very beautiful. Hope you revisit Kate and Benoit in the future - I'd like to see how they've improved their garden.

[@mcdibbern9919]

Beautiful home for this talented young couple. Couldn’t live with the “ couch “ setup but hey, they’re young and fit and have a lovely outdoor space. Wishing them very many happy years together.

[@seedsoflove7684]

Yeah, i would barely fit as one person. A 2 person chair might have been more cozy. Well, it is for them not me. Pretty cool house.

[@juancarlosmontes]

What a beautiful couple, finishing each other's sentences the way they do...one mindedness is a beautiful thing.

[@francesgraham5411]

Kate and Benoit have done a beautiful job, the stairs to bedroom a work of art. I like the size of the kitchen and bathroom, the mosquito net in bedroom, and can see that they can make an outdoor loving room on their deck if they put a roof over it. One of the nicest I have ever seen.

[@OnomeOneyibo]

Liking before I watch because I missed this channel so much!!! Was just saying to my friend that you guys hadn't posted since last year only to open the app and see this. Thank you Bryce and Rasa, my night (it's night here) has been made.

[@livingbig]

Thanks so much! It's great to be back posting new videos. We've got some great tours lined up this year and can't wait to share them with you. Thanks for supporting our channel!

[@lizzieb6311]

What a beautiful couple living a natural and fulfilling life. The craftsmanship and woodworking In incredible..truly a work of art. I sometimes wonder if Bryce is aware how many lives HE has impacted in a positive manner by introducing people like myself to a way of life we never considered.

[@equilibria74]

Proof that salvaging and upcycling can be just as good quality or better than prefabricated or new. Definitely worth taking your time to select what you really want for your build. A house should be yours not a market game.

[@tamiweber9409]

Delightful couple with their amazing house. I agree a large bathroom is a must have.

[@M00Nature]

I loved watching this young couple striving to live sustainably. Bravo!

[@karijane210]

This home is perfect! I saw Floyd's van, which brought me here. I love this for plan so very much! I've scratched my own plans for yours! Amazing!

[@DagmaraD1]

Watching this channel and seeing people happy in their homes always makes me smile, thank you ❤

[@lynnecahill2859]

Well Bryce you certainly did not disappoint ❤ with your first 2024 Living Big! This one is going to be hard to beat. First an adorable couple, great property with sheep 🐑. The woodwork they accomplished as novices is amazing! Have a great weekend everyone! 🥰🥰🥰

[@teddysdadcory]

What a sweet couple, and their house is beautiful and cleverly designed. I hope they get to enjoy it for many years.

[@hamey]

This is such a great design. I love it! Family included in the build, how wonderful for the memories. ❤

[@tinac1111]

Hello- what a way to begin 2024! Such a truly beautiful and unique home, all of the incredible hand-crafted artistic designs! This creative and sweetly loving couple (and family) were able to build one-of-a-kind home, surrounding themselves with everything perfectly suited to their lifestyle! So impressed and even teared up with joy for them! Great video Bryce and Rasa!🥰Congratulations Kate and Benoit 👏💝

[@Slayseray]

Perfect timing I just wanted to lean back and watch KZbin and you just posted 💕

[@ann-mariejensen2623]

The cost of their home would be the most impressive thing if it weren't for how truly beautiful the home is! Well done.

[@SustainerNYC]

Right?!! Just wow. :D

[@LizzyAngell]

I love the “sentimental” front steps Kate! I’d be just like that too. Congratulations to you and Benoît on creating a truly beautifully crafted home.

[@dudeman5812]

Great couple. Very beautiful, loving and intelligent people. They did a great job. It’s possible to build something this size for much less but it looks great. It’s a whole vibe. Good episode. 🖖🏼

[@serenakoleno9338]

Hard to believe it was under $35 K US ! Well done! 😊

[@ksk881]

This home is one of the most beautiful tiny homes that I have ever seen. The counter in the kitchen is stunning and unique. It looks like everything in the build was done with love, and it really shows. I would love to live here!

[@sarahhayes3820]

Every time I rewatch this channel I fall in love with it all over again

[@kellygreen8255]

The house is fabulous, but THOSE STAIRS! Wow!

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Thanks, Bryce! Thanks, Rasa! Thanks, Kate! Thanks, Benoît! 🏡

[@sueyates3555]

Such a beautiful, tiny home, and so spacious. The couple that built this with their brother got such great memories of all the architect and special designs that they have put in the home.. Well done.❤️

[@papabear2515]

Beautiful home, beautiful setting. So great to have you back posting, Bryce!

[@philiq18]

It's such a personalized space. So many intricate details, especially the stairs. The labour of love shines through to the result. Also admired how much Benoit adores Kate. Lovely couple. Thanks for sharing another gem, Bryce.

[@bonniepwtf]

Welcome back Bryce & Rasa❤ What a great place to start with. They certainly made a beautiful home, lacking in nothing (except a comfy couch). The bedroom was so nice with all the windows, made it feel spacious.

[@jelenamarinkovic4765]

I love their honesty and sence of humor

[@sandrasandoval8111]

SIMPLY GORGEOUS ! You two and your family and friends hit a HOMERUN with your designs inside and out . I love it 👍😊❤✌

[@TinyhouseLatvia]

This one is a stunner! If anyone who wants a tiny house has time and a bit of luck finding materials - this is definitely the way to do it! Such an amazing wood work - the kitchen countertop is just such a centerpeace and catches the eye instantly! Super! 👏👏

[@marlooostmeyer2778]

I just love this home! So many beautiful details. You were so correct in saying that their home is a piece of art because it truly is. Kate and Benoit, you two did an amazing job with your build. Thanks so much for sharing it with us. Inspiring!!!

[@eceerdat7348]

Ve watching young people building their own houses. The whole process must empower them in so many ways I can't even imagine I guess, being 46 years old. I come from another generation, mindset... We were brought up to be a part of the grinder but I have hope for future generations changing the way we live 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@rochelgrundman9936]

This house is so gorgeous! What an inspiring couple! And the support they got while building. I am so inspired!

[@karengossett1475]

Late to the party but grateful I found this! Adorable couple and lovely home 🙏💞. That bathroom 👍🥰

[@katherineleboeuf722]

Omg, such creativity! Absolutely gorgeous, love all the details. Well done, congrats on your perfect tiny home. Sweet couple 😊

[@taramama6658]

Love this!! We have a big property with my in laws and we are moving into a fifth wheel to live in for a year why we start our tiny home build.

[@kckazcoll1]

what is a fifth wheel? I've not heard of that before

[@tammyjantzen9004]

Burnt my lunch watchin' this one. It's just beautiful! Great job. Kudos to you two, and your family!

[@puppycat58]

The craftsmanship is absolutely gorgeous....love the bathroom...surprised me when I saw the closet and washer... I would like a slightly bigger sofa....the drawers in the stairs were huge...the craftsmanship on the stairs amazing 👏.... awesome couple they are...❤..lots of luck

[@llorylloyd]

I absolutely love this spot and the home is so quaint and perfect. ❤ The colors and wood is so great.

[@mmsmits2868]

Wonderful kitchen, great bathroom, incredible budget, all paling in comparison to those stair risers. I mean...wow... Every time they go up the stairs they see their family. It's the most beautiful thing I've seen in a long time. Thank you for the tour!

[@cmsmith3010]

What an exciting first video for 2024! An awesome house, filled with so many unique and artistic touches!! Kate & Benoit should be very proud!!

[@brookesmith8223]

This is probably my favorite tiny house I’ve seen in your channel 😊. It feels/looks so spacious and large. I love their design. ❤

[@tinksdreamlife]

This home was absolutely beautiful and so smartly done...happy for this lovely couple.

[@AnneAlready]

I swear, the loveliest people live in tiny homes!! All the best to this couple. x

[@khandro5685]

magnifique! original! et tellement représentatif de leur maison! construite par eux, leur famille! dans un cadre, propriété, si grande et belle!

[@anaderol5408]

Brilliant start to 2024 - beautiful home, gorgeous setting and a talented and charismatic couple!

[@RaySingh87]

My favorite part was the hammock in the back!! 🥰😍❤️💕

[@tamielizabethallaway2413]

What a gorgeous young couple. I love their home. It's a very good layout, works well. I'd personally choose different colours and would have made a proper lounge, but I'm not young and slim and fit like her anymore! 😂 I'm guessing New Zealand weather is pretty gorgeous most of the year anyway right? So outdoor seating makes up for the lack of lounge. I love their home, but I especially love them! Lovely couple. I wish them a lifetime of happiness and love. ❤

[@judithgould4363]

This is absolutely fantastic family effort! Well done to this lovely family. ❤❤❤ If they wanted it, it could be even more amazing with an outdoor living room with a comfy couch.

[@DawnOldham]

The wood work in this home was some of the best I've seen on any tiny house. The kitchen, bath, bedroom and outside space are just incredible. I couldn't ask for more! The couch area would be the one that I'd change up a bit for more comfort. Small is fine, but I'd want a cushioned back to my lounge area! Between all of the other perfect areas, the craftsmanship, the high quality materials and the very affordable build price, this is one of my favorite tiny homes I've seen! ❤

[@miangelsai]

A beauty in every single detail . Lovely home and couple . A real treat to the eyes ... Missing you for a month, but happy to see you again ! Thank you ... !!!

[@IAMTHAT528]

Salvaged wood and materials show more beauty and character than the new match box homes put in in Wanaka & Hawea. Great work to them and their future together.

[@abcabc5630]

Those stairs are fantastic and I love their "have fewer spaces (even for a tiny) but generous ones" approach to the kitchen and bathroom.

[@angeladawn805]

Looking forward to the talented brother's van build. The guy's an artist, philosopher, all-round-top-bloke ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@mandyellis876]

This home is stunning. I absolutely love the bedroom and the kitchen, particularly. Fair play to them both and Kate’s brother!

[@MJLumacs]

Lots of green.💚

[@goatsahoy4449]

...and the right greens, perfect.

[@Suho1004]

The artistry of this house is outstanding. I love all the woodwork. The stairs in particular are just an amazing idea and turned out great.

[@shahneltuhou91]

Absolutely beautiful Manon women to women I am so proud of you. Many blessings to you sister🎉🎉🎉

[@SamraNaveed]

Beautiful home… Bryce always choose his best spot for final statements and I knew it before which spot that would be and certainly this time it has to be the beautiful piece of art , the stairs…love all the wood work …

[@SalsaNube]

Lovely couple and an amazing tiny house!Great start of the year! All the best for it! Cannot wait for all the new videos and ideas and your projects coming on! Cheers!

[@kyrataylor2035]

This is, without a doubt, a truly beautiful build. Very clever storage ideas and I love the beautiful woodwork and art pieces. Nothing looks crowded or out of place. Congratulations. Wishing you both a long and happy life.

[@sandralnwebster3204]

You said it-they know where the heart of the home is❤!!!!!!

[@beetodd4709]

Wonderfully crafted, and their authentic style is beautiful. Very talented and creative couple/family. Well done! Would love this house ❤

[@amychen2504]

I love how Benoit obviously loves Kate.

[@starfishgurl1984]

This is a couple after my own heart, as much as I love a lot of features in tiny houses I don’t love the price tags that come along with them and growing up in my parents 1880’s era home I’ve always dreamt of using as many old reclaimed/recycled materials as possible in my future THOW and doing as much as I can myself as possible in addition to making it off grid because I want to enjoy life and spend money on things that matter without being in debt to pay for them so DIY is a great way to achieve that!

[@Hislodin]

Brothers. Got to love them. Especially if they can help you build such an epic tiny house.

[@glendaanderson1119]

It's very beautiful! So taken with the step/drawers, how ingenious! That everyone got together on it is heart filled ❤😊

[@rafatkhan3973]

I was eagerly waiting for your videos thank you so much for uploading, bryce and raasaa, love you guys ❤😊😊

[@keithahughes4483]

Gorgeous. Simply beautiful. What a positive young couple & wonderful family support. Well done :)

[@beckyh8471]

One of the most beautiful and well laid out homes I have seen.

[@lizh1988]

So beautiful, the outside was so impressive and different, and the inside lived up to it. Thanks for such a lovely video.

[@susancbrodie8595]

They did a wonderful job. Love your tiny home and the little things that just make who you are!❤

[@susanbrown5878]

Such a beautiful home and couple... They're very in tune and you can tell they're very excited as they should be... I would have preferred to see a sitting space but it's theirs and they love it and that's all that matters. Welcome back Bryce and Rasa... What a great start to 2024. ❤🎉

[@jeroberts7228]

Wow... there is so much beautiful and creative timber work in this amazing tiny house - I'm in love with the entire aesthetic! And there are so many other lovely touches throughout that just accentuate the beauty and the feeling of a well-loved home. It is actually breathtaking!

[@rubysarma5022]

Hi Bryce!! What a lovely video! I absolutely love this couple and their amazing tiny house. And I love the way they bond and fit into the house. Plus I am fond of long haired people( Bryce plz grow yours some more😊)! Thanks Bryce n Rasa . I am always happier with the world after seeing one of your videos❤ love n blessings ❤

[@carolyndwight9812]

What a beauty!

[@Coin200]

Very enjoyable to watch the talented people making their home

[@marvanbee]

Carpenter here: beautiful.💚 I get a new little idea for my own build almost every time I watch your videos. :))

[@ariadne3756]

This home makes me feel so happy. What a beautiful couple ❤

[@pippas5808]

What a beautiful home - love the 'family stair risers' and all the reclaimed materials and the wood.

[@Lavonne9870]

Impressive! Love the woodworking and that lovely staircase/drawers. I also feel that sense of accomplishment waking up every day in my tinyhome. I too went with a larger bathroom with walk in shower, but regret not having a full sized fridge. I've lived in it 2+ yrs. Kinda got distracted by other projects, so I really need to finish the wall panels and ceiling... but my built in bed alcove is my respite from a long day. Your channel is an inspiration and eye candy. Thanks for bringing us into so many builds with character and heart ❤.

[@JessicaNiles]

There's so many ideas to take away from this one, I love it! Those stairs!!! 🤩 Bryce- your never-ending enthusiasm for tiny house tours gets me every time! ;)

[@louisedoolitttle6842]

Wow! What a beautiful home. They are very talented and should be so very proud and happy of their hard work. Under budget on top of it all! Well done!

[@LisaCurrie-Gurney-rj4yn]

FABULOUS! CREATIVE! FUNCTIONALITY! GORGEOUS!

[@kruttikahegde8284]

Ok this is seriously amazing!! I love how much design they have incorporated even on staircase!! that's some committment!

Great introduction to 2024. What a home and done with so much love. Thanks again for another wonderful video.
