A bewitching mix of fairy tale cottage, steamer trunk, and pirate ship, it is built by Chloe and Brandon almost entirely from their recycled film sets, thrift, flea market, and junkyard finds. Originally featured on HGTV’s\u003ci\u003e Tiny House, Big Livin\u003c\/i\u003eg, it went on to garner international attention in print and online, going viral multiple times.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book takes readers on a journey through Chloe and Brandon’s story of building and decorating their home, which they have completely redesigned in the last few years. Like the house, every inch of this richly ornate book is packed with innovative ideas for small space living, including foldable sections of the house used as “his and hers” wings with custom-built wardrobes, desks, chairs, and vanity; a bathroom with a composting toilet and folding sink; even a guest bed. Chloe and Brandon share the joys of day-to-day small-space living: creating storage in every nook and cranny, baking pies in the tiny kitchen from fruit they’ve gathered; climbing into the dramatically curtained bed loft by candlelight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSumptuously designed and illustrated, this book is a wildly original take on small-space living.\"Stuck in a Rut?
