THE Pine series are our mid-level garages, for when you need a double car detached garage or a classy looking shop or storage space. The Pine will fit in comfortably with a footprint of 20 feet wide and 20 feet deep. A 16 foot garage door is specified. If space is at a premium and you would like more storage in one building, consider the Pine A. This brother to the Pine has been to the gym a few more times and eats his Wheaties. The 'A' is 24x24 feet and comes with double 8 foot wide garage doors plus a 336sf bonus room upstairs.

For maximum use of minimum space consider the Pine B.

All garages are framed with 2x4 walls for maximum floor space. If you preferred to stick frame the roof of the Pine you could gain extra storage in the rafters. You might also inquire of your truss company about using attic style trusses. You might have limited headroom, but you could get your Christmas decor out of sight and throw it up above. The roofs are 12:12 pitch, but of course you can change that to suit your needs.

This plan is sold with a slab style foundation included. If you need to modify to a suspended garage, please contact an engineer local to your area.  



All plans include four elevations, floor plans, foundation plans, at least two building sections, framing plans for the second floor and/or roof, and notes and construction details. This is everything you will need to build, but may not be everything you need to get a permit. Check with your local jurisdiction. Electrical layouts, cabinet elevations and engineering are not included.

THE Carver, like our other tiny house plans, is named for a small community.  Carver, Oregon was first settled in 1846 by the Horace Baker family.  The name was changed a few times from the original Baker's Quarry (due to a massive basaltic rock formation) to Stone to Carver.  Though the last two names were surnames, they fit the description of the history very well.


The Baker cabin was built ten years later on the site and this day remains as a museum.  A restoration kept the old homestead standing.  The construction is of mortise and tenoned douglas fir logs with horse-hair for chinking.  We think that some of our standard energy efficient construction details would be more appropriate.  Much like the old cabin, we have a sleeping loft designed in, though ours is accessible from the inside.  Can you imagine those cold pioneer nights, walking out of your hearth-warmed cabin and climbing exterior steps in the snow to go to bed?

Unlike the Carver and Carver A, the 'B' is formed around a little more open space. The bedrooms are less than code minimum for most of the country. Caveat Emptor. Some places may allow you to build this version, some may not have a code that would be restricting. The 'master' bedroom is smaller than the required 70sf though a queen bed would fit (sort of). We are pretty pleased with our little bunk room which can accomodate two twin mattresses, one over the other. We even got a tiny closet in there. On top of that, there is 70 more square feet over the main bedroom and closet. The peak measures 7'-4" inside allowing for both laying down and standing up. Furthermore, the area over the bunk can be used as storage space or a very cozy sleeping loft; railing optional.
Build the Carver and indulge the inner pioneer!

Rather than one open floor plan we locked ourselves in to creating a couple of code-minimum rooms and adding all else around that.  The pocket office off the parlor adds a kitschy little space that gives a little more privacy to the bath area.  If you'd like more floor area, you can reduce the closet to a 2x4 reach-in and cover with a curtain.  That's the beauty of small spaces; decor norms go out the window and creativity can shine.

If the low slung look does not appeal to you, we moved our Tetris blocks around to form the Carver with a gable end forward and different loft.  The Carver B is something entirely different.

Build the Carver and indulge the inner pioneer!

Since the mass of the porch is not right out of the front door, we moved our Tetris blocks around and formed the Carver A with a slightly larger porch and different loft.  The Carver B is something entirely different.

WILSADA Park is a beautiful former retreat just minutes from Carver, OR.  Family of friends now own the site privately.  We were lucky enough to attend a party there.  What remains are well maintained grounds with a dining pavilion, concession stand, main lodge, bathrooms and several outbuildings.  What struck us was the idyllic nature of the place and how peaceful it was to be there.  The world disappeared and time was irrelevant.

The name for our little plan was inspired by this paradise.  The inspiration came from the desire to design a 200sf retreat around a bed nook.  We've been inspired by several pictures of these and found them to be delightful.  Given that it's not technically a bedroom, these nooks can be as small as the mattress itself as ours is.  Minor variations in the bathroom exist.  The rest of the space is open with generous glazing through which to enjoy the outdoors.  The visual availability of the outdoors will make this tiny retreat feel not so tiny.  Enjoy the coziness!

THE Arleta was a fun design that was inspired from the pages of Radford's Artisitic Bungalows. We tried to stay true to the original design while making sure to adhere to a more modern formula.  We are still scratching our heads at how we fit so much into a space of less than 1400sf.  The design deities have smiled upon us!

At only 28 feet wide, the house will easily fit on a narrow infill lot.  The open porch and low roof give the house an immediate inviting and cozy feel.  We took some 1910's design liberties on the 'A' and dolled her up.  For a more craftsman look, see the original.

Inside, we have kept the classic vestibule and framed it with a couple of pillars.  On the other end of the house we took the classic icebox service entry and turned it into a true mudroom.
While we have been fairly anti-hallway in public circles, we found that we couldn't do without it here.  The original plan allowed the bedrooms and bathroom (singular) to open right out to the common rooms.  Modern design parlance requires a little more privacy.  Were you to want to bump privacy up to the realm of secrecy, you could completely hide the hallway.  The opening at the parlor could be covered completely or have a secret panel built into the woodwork.  The kitchen could have a sliding or swinging shelf at its opening.  This turns the entire right side of the house into a saferoom!

This plan is unique in that we have included space for a furnace should you choose to install one.  The ceiling in the hallway could be sheathed and then subframed to 8'.  This space then becomes perfect for running all your duct runs within conditioned space.  All rooms can be touched.  And if you built the house right your registers should have no need to reach to the windows.  What an archaic practice!  Similarly subframe the two immediate closets and put your return towards the parlor or dining room.
