Gorgeous Tiny House Countryside Puts a Stylish Spin on Sustainability

Tiny house tourism is becoming more and more popular. Those wanting to get away from the busy city life get the chance to reconnect with nature in a private, comfortable abode that was built in harmony with the natural environment. Tiny vacation rentals boast the great advantage of increased mobility and flexibility without sacrificing any of the typical resort amenities. Also, the lower costs associated with living in a tiny house are a plus for everyone.

The small team that founded Tiny Hygge just a few years ago also set up what would become the first tiny house camp resort in Scandinavia. Their beautifully-crafted homes are perfect for vacations that embody the hygge philosophy – enjoying the small pleasures of life, spending time with loved ones, and choosing a minimalistic, sustainable lifestyle.

The Countryside is one of those THOWs (tiny houses on wheels) that look just as beautiful on the outside as they do on the inside. It would instantly draw the attention on the road, and anywhere it goes. The classic-style cladding and the large windows with contrasting black frames are its most noticeable features. The Countryside looks polished and elegant without straying too far from the iconic Scandinavian style.

Beyond its beauty, the Countryside tiny home's exterior is a reflection of the brand's focus on sustainability. Tiny Hygge uses natural materials, including wood and recycled composites, to build its homes, pairing that with an efficient layer of natural insulation. Thanks to this, the Tiny Hygge homes use fewer materials and then require less energy to maintain an optimal temperature, resulting in a drastically reduced ecological footprint (compared to conventional housing).

Japanese cedar wood has become a classic choice for tiny house builders who are keen on sustainability as well as aesthetics. Homes with Japanese cedar wood siding are instantly recognizable due to the famous shou sugi ban technique of charring wood in order to preserve it. This ancient Japanese method makes the wood practically last a lifetime without the use of any chemicals, also giving modern tiny houses that beautiful traditional look.

The Tiny Hygge team adds an eco-friendly coating to the wood panels based on natural linseed oil. Each home is then insulated with sheep's wool. This natural material is not only a sustainable choice but a highly effective one. Natural wool keeps the temperature comfortable without restricting air circulation. Plus, it efficiently absorbs moisture, which makes it particularly suitable for tiny homes in high-humidity climates.

The Countryside tiny comes on a tri-axle galvanized trailer. It boasts a medium length of eight meters (26 feet) and a generous overall surface of 25 square meters (269 square feet). It's one of the larger models designed by Tiny Hygge, with accommodation for up to four people. The main bedroom is upstairs, in the loft area, while the ground-floor living room can double as an additional bedroom thanks to a custom-made convertible sofa.

This stylish tiny reveals a warm yet airy interior in perfect harmony with the elegant exterior. Although the classic bright white was replaced by a warmer color palette, the minimalistic design keeps things uncluttered and luminous. The black frames and furniture create visual interest, adding a contemporary touch.

The Countryside tiny seems to open up to the outside world. Its large glass doors create the illusion of an indoor-outdoor space. Multiple windows throughout flood the entire area with natural light, also surrounding the home with relaxing natural views.

The home's loft bedroom is particularly interesting because it's fitted with multiple windows and a large skylight. You have fresh air at all times, plenty of light, and a gorgeous view of the sky - what more could you wish for?

A second skylight creates a similar effect in the living room. You rarely see a tiny house living area with large windows on both sides, an oversized window at the rear, and an additional skylight. Again, this blurs the line between the inside and the outside, making the room feel much bigger. The large sofa can turn into a bed, also doubling as a storage solution.

The Countryside tiny is big on storage. It boasts skillfully-crafted shelves in the same living room area for generous storage that doesn't take up space. The staircase connecting the loft area with the main floor offers additional storage. Both the kitchen and the bathroom include several custom-made cabinets.

The traditional, minimalistic style blends seamlessly with modern amenities, including underfloor electric heating, an efficient ventilation system, and discrete lighting. The house comes with all the kitchen and bathroom basics neatly integrated in order to take as little space as possible.

With its head-turning exterior and the large windows and skylights, the Countryside tiny would make a great vacation rental.
