Building a Tiny House – clever planning and versatile use
As the translation suggests, a tiny House is a particularly small prefabricated houses. There is no fixed definition of this type of house in Germany. The mini houses are usually planned in such a way that one to two people can live in them comfortably - albeit in a minimalist way. A Tiny House can be used as a main residence, but also as a holiday home, student flat, guest house or for au pairs or carers. Those who need extra space in addition to their home can also opt for a Tiny House as a garden shed, office, studio or atelier. Given the small size, sensible planning of the mini house is particularly important. Let yourself be inspired by the lovingly designed Tiny House designs of our Hanse Haus architects.

Whether a Tiny House can be lived in all year round depends on the design and equipment of the house.
In order to be able to live in a Tiny House without freezing in winter, appropriate insulation and a heating system are crucial.
A Tiny House from Hanse Haus is ideally suited as a comfortable home for all seasons and can thus be used as a main residence without any problems. It is built on a floor slab and has a technical room that accommodates a modern heating system. To keep heat loss via the building envelope as low as possible, the all-round thermal insulation encloses all exterior walls, the roof and, if necessary, the floor slab.
