Beautiful Swedish Tiny With a Built-In Porch Turns Minimalism Into Perfection

Rosita boasts less than 30 square meters (323 square feet): 20 (215 square feet) downstairs and seven (75.3 square feet) for the loft area with one bedroom. Still, from the outside, it looks very much like a traditional wooden cabin with ample room for a family. Rosita reveals one of its top-selling points straight away – a lovely built-in, covered porch that expands its living spaces without compromising its overall compact and lightweight qualities.

This small but cozy porch connects directly with the lounge through a glass door, so this entire area literally becomes an indoor/outdoor space. A built-in porch is one of the most popular additions a tiny house could have – it brings all the benefits of a dedicated outdoor area in perfect harmony with a dwelling that's meant to be easy to transport and maintain. The porch is big enough to house comfortable seating, and since it's covered, guests can enjoy it in any weather, making it doubly advantageous.

Inside, the open-concept lounge offers additional room for relaxation and socializing with friends and family. The gorgeous balance between the dark wood furniture and white shiplap walls creates an instant peaceful ambiance. Tiny LED lights scattered everywhere add a whimsical touch that makes Rosita seem magical. Smaller horizontal windows on top of big, vertical ones ingeniously increase luminosity and create the illusion of taller spaces. Combined with the overall minimalism and lack of clutter, this design hack literally maximizes Rosita's spaciousness.

The furnishings with oak décor and matte white fronts beautifully complement the home's neutral color palette. Rosita's furniture is not just about showing off exquisite craftsmanship but also about versatility through multi-functionality. The TV bench, for instance, can double as extra seating for the lounge when needed. The room was designed to fit a classic sofa or two armchairs, and the custom-made furniture also provides generous storage.

Rosita is defined by a refined mix of rustic simplicity and modern, premium appliances. In the lounge, there's a TV mounted on the wall in order to save space. In the kitchen, all the appliances are integrated to perfection into the custom-made furniture, which gives the kitchen a surprisingly modern, even luxurious look. The countertop surface is remarkably generous for a house this size, which also translates to ample, well-organized storage.

To save more space and add functionality, one section was designed to double as a snack bar with enough room for three bar stools. Once again, it's all about smart versatility. This way, even a compact home like this 33-footer can offer a cozy, practical dining area without taking up any lounge space. This is all part of a bigger open-concept design that opens up Rosita's ground floor as much as possible.

Even the gorgeous floating staircase was skillfully designed to enhance spaciousness further. It's much more efficient this way than a classic bulky version, which typically takes up a lot of space, yet it's also more comfortable and elegant than a basic ladder. There's also considerable room for storage left under this floating staircase, even though there are no integrated cabinets.

The steps lead to this home's only bedroom, a beautiful room built with large windows for plenty of sunshine and high-quality floors. An inviting double bed sits on a custom-built frame with matching bedside tables. Discrete LED lights complete this minimalistic yet high-quality setup that truly feels like a magical oasis away from the urban jungle.

Despite its minimalist décor, the Rosita Tiny is packed when it comes to appliances for long-term accommodation. The tiny bathroom comes with a full-size shower cabin, a vacuum toilet, and a Japanese-style mini washing machine mounted on the wall. Underneath the Moroccan tile floor, this bathroom boasts an advanced heating system, and the walls were specifically built to withstand humidity. The mirror with built-in lighting, the towel dryer, and the recessed paper holder are all tiny luxuries meant to enhance long-term comfort.

Apart from the ingenious design and premium appliances (including electric floor heating throughout), the beautiful Rosita is a smart home in the true sense of the word, boasting several functions (switch, timer, and others) that the owner can control via a dedicated panel. Rosita embodies what could be considered the Swedish take on tiny living – a unique blend of rustic charm, modern, clean aesthetics, advanced features, and sustainability.

Rosita is one of the inspiring custom builds created by Treesign -Tiny Homes of Sweden and was priced at SEK 930,000 ($85,600). Fabian and his team manufacture these beautiful homes in an indoor facility in Madangsholm, powered by locally produced energy.
