This is a home that the owners say looks “lived in, for sure!”
There's a sidebar to the tiny house movement, which writers might
tend to enjoy. That is the renewed habit of giving your tiny house a name.
This endearing home built by Stacey Pridgen of Rooms and Spaces and
Tiny Places is a terrific example of a house with a name that personifies its
purpose. It is known as the Family Tiny
Home or, more completely, Andrew Odom's Tiny r(E)volution Family
Tiny Home, given the owner's Tiny r(E)volution blog that informs the world of many things concerning the tiny house revolution, including family- and domicile-related news.

This lets you know that
there's a revolutionary/evolution taking place in the Odom family and
the cornerstone of that transmogrification (OK, change) concerns
joining the tiny house movement, hook, line and sinker – kitchen

This home, in fact, exudes family. From the kitchen stuffed with

And little baby makes three! (Plus the usual velveteen suspects.)
Mom and pop sleep within an arm's reach of the baby.
One of the highlights to this tiny home is the so-called "shower-shack," which is not attached to the house at all. Like many tiny houses -- this one is only 240 square feet -- space is in such high demand that choosing what kind of bathroom to build is a pivotal question. A tiny house demands many lifestyle adjustments and that means having a soul-searching discussion about priorities. In this case, a good, old-fashioned outhouse serves the family for the time being, except that this is not quite a primitive latrine from the dig-a-hole days. It's a bit more modern than that. And an attached privy, we are told, is in the planning stages.
Still, you could do worse than this:
A quick peek inside:
And, yes, there's a shower, too.
