Tiny homes offer an affordable housing solution, with prices from $30,000 to over $200,000. They are increasingly popular with the 45+ age group and for creating multi-generational living spaces on family properties.
Key design trends include two-storey layouts with innovative walkways and single-level homes with high-pitched roofs. Smart design is crucial, focusing on functionality and multi-purpose spaces.
