Well done! It is absolutely beautiful. I've seen so many poorly done, cheap looking or worse-chaotic looking Tiny Homes, but this is stunning. Your attention to detail is awesome. If only I hit the lottery tonight❤️. Are you going to build more of these homes to sell? I surely hope so. Mathieu, you're a master designer and builder!
You said exactly what I was going to say.
I concur! And have the same question 😂
One of the nicest tiny homes I’ve seen! Elegant in its simplicity and composed of complementing materials. Great stories of their fortunate finding too. Well done Mate 👍
Having that one windowframe a dark color really makes a big difference and adds a lot to the overall look of the space.
The man and the home are both beautiful! Well done! Thank you for sharing. I love the minimalist design. The cherry/cedar wood is stunning. The interior design is flawless and very functional. I love the windows because it lets you gaze at the beautiful woods outdoors. I mean what else could you ask for? All it needs is an adorable little cat to greet you at the entrance. This kind of minimalist home is why I fell in love with tiny homes. I personally would put it on a foundation and on a .5 acre lot for my cats to roam. I need my home on foundation in tornado alley. Lovely video! I currently own a normal 3 bd, 2ba, which I love, but I like tiny too.
He and his friends did a wonderful job. I would say to give yourself grace. I know he is the builder but he was a bit hard and proud of himself at the same time. I think he did wonderful and I hope someone is also happy with his creation!
Someone is getting a beautiful home.
One of the best I’ve ever seen!
The quality of the materials used in the build makes the house exceptionally beautiful. Well done Matthieu
Totally agree that the lack of skylight over the bed is just right and cosy, all the other beautiful windows are enough!
👍
A gorgeous, spacious, classy home!
The black frame around the window is gorgeous well done!
Your house is so beautiful, relaxing, healing.❤
Charmante petite maison. Bravo!
W🖤W!! Truly 🖤 this home!! The design accents & mix of dark & light is perfect! Be proud!!
Glad you like the tiny house, thanks for watching!
Hi your home is very awesome, lots of attention to detail hope you have enough space for your clothes,, Best Wishes from UK ❤❤❤
! ! ! REWARDING ! ! ! Congratulations Mathieu ! You Conquered Not Only This Beautiful Project, But The Broadest Sense of The Word “REWARDING” ! Congratulations and Best Wishes !
Gorgeous wood inside- the wood accent wall with black window trim is stunning.
Cabin on wheels looks good
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too... Great going Buddy... kudos. Congratulations on job well done.
That is so incredibly beautiful. I would buy it and you should do this for a living. You are so talented and your tradesmanship is much needed, appreciated and valuable!
Love the attention to details here. Gorgeous home. ✨
Happy you enjoyed the tour, thanks for watching :)
Your color and material choice on the exterior is perfect. The interior is perfect as well because it doesn’t lock the owner into a specific configuration. I like how you kept most of the design open, which will allow them to move things around if they want. You have a bright future ahead of you!
Solid, inspired, thoughtful work !
i love this tiny house ❤
You are very talented...What a masterpiece!
Love your feature wall, the beauty shows throughout but especially in the loft, it really pops.🎉 workmanship is dead on...fantastic job.
Very lovely house !
Hello nicole
Well done love both the exterior and well designed interior, The dark frame work around that interior window really makes the space pop love the black with the timber regardless. and how spaciouse it look's. Everything goes together smoothly. I love this Home .
Jist beautiful, amd so interesting to listen to your rationale for your decisions. Brilliant quality shines out everywhere. Good luck for a very rewarding future!
I love, love, love, this amazing build. ❤❤❤
A beautiful build.
Lovely home and excellent tour explaining the details and process.
Glad you enjoyed the tour, thanks for watching :)
We really like the design and the contrast between the wood and black.👍👍 Thank you so much Matt and Danielle.❤❤
Mathieu, you have done a magnificent job!!! Your home is truly a masterpiece!!! Not quite enough storage space for clothes, is my only negative thought. I am sure you will find a buyer quickly ~ you should be proud of your work!! Sending you light, love, peace, joy and abundance always. I love you.
VERY NICE 👍
Very nice ! Good things happen to good people. Thanks for all the back story ; )
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for your comment :)
Absolutely beautiful ❤️❤️
Thank you so much!! Happy you enjoyed the tour :)
Quelle jolie petite maison. Décoré avec goût et tellement d'attention porté sur les détails!
Bravo .. Franchement une très belle création .. ❤ du Québec
I'd be all over that. That, my motorcycle and a truck. Let's roll 😅
BEAUTIFULLY WELL DONE.
Nice build, Mathieu. Love the kitchen sink. 👍
Great kitchen, bathroom, and living room! I can’t personally do a loft for sleeping.
I love it, good job!!!
Wow. That was a really nice Tiny House ❤ You sure did fantastic job 👍👍
Hello paivi
What a beautiful home!!! So well done - in all respects!
Beautiful house and very handsome guy ❤❤
Beautiful! 😊❤
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed checking out Mathieu's tiny house :)
That’s amazing! I’m no plumber or construction worker but will the pex piping be ok outside? I know it expands etc. I’m still learning. lol
It looks really nice but I don't see any storage for clothes other than the rod above the W/D. If I had to guess, I don't think he ever lived in it.
Most of these on here are display/ prototype models as you rarely see any personally belongings. Also he raves about the 6ft 2" clearance downstairs but can barely sit up in the highest corner of the bedroom section! The layout just seems a bit off to me. His friends woodwork is great though.
@@AnyKeyLady yeah the 6'2" wouldn't be enough for me and I don't need a bathtub in my tiny, especially at 6'6". I couldn't use it anyway. With that space reclaimed, they could have stairs.
@@ryefry At 6'6", you would need a slide to get out of that bed space! Yes the spaces around the bath tub, sink and the angle of the toilet was odd, when space is premium. Those shirt's will never dry in the bathroom.
Just lovely!.
Beautiful home Mathieu. I also am concerned with all the big windows and none open you could have condensation in the winter and too hot in the summer. But it depends on your climate and location... like shade, in the open etc. Your work and materials are really nice. You should be proud and hope you have sold by now!
Hello laura
Very well done! Your choice of many big windows really makes the space brite . Lovely build🎉. JO JO IN VT 🇺🇲💞
So tasteful!!! The craftsmanship is incredible! If I were in the market for a tiny home, this would be it! You should be very proud!!!
Wonderful work! ❤
Beautiful ❤️ well done❤
Thank you, so happy you enjoyed the tour :)
Half way through this video and need to comment. Well done to the builder! This is excellent work, really impressive to see done pretty much solo. Is he still building tiny houses? 😅🙏🏼
Gorgeous Tiny Build 😍 ❤
Hello Tammy
This is one of the most well thought out builds. Simple but smart and very livable. I like having the propane tanks and water tank outside.
Beautiful tiny house design! And so well executed! If you wanted a shower, you could have used Muraluxe panels and then your shower would have been lighter than the bathtub. There are so many beautiful Muraluxe panels and I think they can even print your own design on them now. My grandfather’s surname was Ouellet. It was changed to Willet in the States, but family history is all Ouellet or Ouellette and other variations, plus LaPointe and Levesque. As far as I can tell, the Ouellets trace back to New Brunswick in the mid 1700s. I haven’t yet been able to go further back than that.
Gorgeous!
It’s always a joy to see the finished product of a passionate and talented carpenter! I fell in love instantly with the interior design using the timber choices and white walls. I would be happy to call this my home but as I’m very short, I would be able to comfortably drop the ceiling in the kitchen to gain 4 or 5 inches more in the loft. Overall, it’s a stunning design and clearly built with craftsmanship.❤
Well done!
The best tiny house that I've seen. Amazing work!
Sweet! The process of planning for the best use and most aesthetically pleasing arrangement is absolutely an intensive one! The attention to the fine details like the cabinet wood grain is often lacking even in an expensive large house! You've done an awsome job! Thanks for sharing.
beautiful
Excellent la maison 🎉❤❤❤
that is a great floor plan and I love that you put a pantry in the kitchen...I don't know if you are in the U S or not but to be legal here in the U S you have to have a window you can climb out incase of fire downstairs...so the upstairs has to have an Egress window yours looked to small for an adult to get out... I didn't see a fan in the bathroom to let out the steam...also is there an air exchanger ? to let the bad air out and the good air in ...Egress window, air Exchanger and fan in bathrooms are important in a tiny home so no mold forms ... A good thing to have is a mini split that has a built in dehumidifier that really keeps the mold out....the floor plan is one of the best I have seen great thinking .....I forgot to add I am 67 and have bad hips so I would have to have stairs instead of a ladder ..
Fantastic! ❤
very nice work
Thanks for the visit :)
This is a beautiful tiny. I lived in a 30' for 4 yrs after we were burned out in Paradise, Calif. We have since moved but I will live in another tiny house. Like i said, this is a beautiful home.
Beautiful
well done Mathieu! :)
I love the style and the openness, especially with all the windows. However, there is too little storage space, especially for clothes and shoes, books, etc. The double cabinets in the kitchen/living room are brilliant though - fantastic woodwork!
Beautifully, thoughtfully done. This handsome, kindly, resourceful craftsman/ carpenter has a dynamite future. LOving the black framed, large, back window in the livingroom area, loving his instinct for bigger windows, loving the dynamics and feel in kitchen, etc. Mathieu, given what is probably an open, more interesting and magnanimous-in-feel career path, might also want to consider stationary "guest spaces/*shacks." He could really come in, applying all that efficiency and rich craftsmanship into autonomous spaces for grandparents, teens. Something marvelous and creative could be built on smaller or larger properties. In the meanwhile, bravo, and much joy to him however he aims his love of material.
Beautifully designed
¡Qué preciosa y justa casita!!!
Very impressive.
Wow! What a beautiful home!
Really beautiful congrats Mathieu👍👏 I love all the wood work and the beautiful windows😘 I would like to have the bedroom downstairs with cabinets for clothes because I feel claustrophobic in lofts😟 I would keep the loft for storages.🙏 What I like about your bathroom is that it fits everything functional but most of all the flushing toilet cause I am not a fan of composting toilet.😂 As I will not be travelling I will build it on foundation with a deck and a little garden. ❤ What you have done for a first build by yourself and your friend helping is just fabulous👏👍 Hope to watch more of your designs tiny homes soon.👍😘
I really love your home, and I love your thought process in the way you designed it ,very practical,, functional and beautiful! 😊
Imagine having a Lagun table mount in the living room!
Congratulations Mathieu on your first tiny home build. Keeping the colour palette neutral will certainly help attract more buyer so they can easily customize to their own desires. I do have a concern about the amount of closet space for clothing -- is there any beyond atop of the washer/dryer? Aside from addressing the storage it is close to perfect and a well thought out design. Best wishes on your future success in carpentry.
clever guy,
Love this design🎉🎉🎉
Very nice, build one for me.
👍 gefällt mir sehr gut, was soll ich sagen als schreiner kollege hätte ich auch nichts anderes erwartet.... in meinem nächsten leben werde ich auch solche schönen tinyhouses bauen.... 🤩 grüße aus deutschland
Great job! A woman would want more clothing storage, but great for a guy!
😊
Matthieu, votre maison est tres belle!
i have a crush. lovely home too :)
The way I understand it that you didn't leave too much room for anything to be put into the trailer according to the weight capacity. I believe a person would have at least 2000 pounds of weight including water and food plus other needs.
Very nice 😅👋🏻🇩🇰🇩🇰
Thank you so much 😀
I really like your home. I would need 12 feet wide instead of 8 feet. I would want a woodburning stove, steps to go upstairs, a bedroom downstairs, a loft upstairs, I would want 32 or 36 feet. and a outside deck with screened in porch. Very nice though! Thanks for sharing.
very nice home if you'd placed the toilet on the same wall as the sink you could have had a larger cabinet and knees wouldn't hit it it looks nice, but where are all your clothes, blankets, etc? I love the feature wall, ceiling, and all the windows. The floors are gorgeous.
What about moisture in the wood? As the washroom is right below the loft? Please advise
Beautiful home! Can you tell me what finish you used on your counter top? Thank you.
We actually went for just a mineral oil finish, it won't provide much protection for the wood, but it is food safe, and easy to reapply, you can also top the mineral oil with a butcher block conditioner which has waxes that will offer some mild protection. The other option we had was a polyurethane spray finish, which would've been more durable, but once it starts to look rough, you would need to completely strip and refinish which would be very labor intensive.
A perfect house. How is the house heated? Or did I miss that...
Small black forced air unit on the wall near the entrance.
@@B.D.F. Thanks!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Nice space! I love all the wood, but I have this peeve with bathtubs that are not flushed to three of the walls (back and sides) because how will someone get into that space to clean it? As a cleanfreak, this would drive me NUTS!
