These are the plans for Macy’s very popularMiniMotives house. Like the other plans shown here, her house features a more modern design style. Macy’s is somewhat unique in that it does not include a loft and makes room for a bed on the main level (with storage underneath), accessible with just a few small steps.

Macy’sBasic-Planspackage is a 13 page set of drawings withgeneral information (including links to products that may be less familiar and her exact fixtures), a material list for basic costing purposes, some floor and ceiling plans, elevations and framing plans, that’s it. Simple easy general info without the bells and whistles. There are no details of specific wall assemblies included in this package.

For those that want it all detailed out down to the millwork, Macy’sFull Plansset has just that. It’s a 33 page set of drawings that includes everything in the Basic Plan package as well as the electrical plan, plumbing plan, millwork and all the details of assemblies I used in my actual house. This, I imaging would be the package that I would purchase if I as starting it over again from scratch, in fact I WISH I had had this prior to going at it.

The third package isEverything, the full plans plus the Sketchup model which is fully editable. This is for those people who want to build something similar to Macy’s house but maybe with a few tweaks. They canstart with the base sketchup model and tweak things from there. I am only offering the Sketchup Model with the purchase of the full set of plans, not independently.

By incorporating green technologies such as solar, this tiny house is a perfect for off-grid applications. It uses an innovative solar battery storage bySimpliPhi Power.

Perhaps the best part of this unit is the ease and speed of construction withSIPs panels (structural insulated panels). The walls and roof went up in literally one day!
