A Little About Us…

We’re a small family team, proud to bring our passion to life through every build. I’m Ashley, and I do most of the construction myself. Inga, my partner, is a talented scenic artist who adds beautiful murals and creative touches, while my Grandmother brings her expertise in upholstery. We started our journey in 2023, and since then, we’ve designed and built 10 cozy homes — each made with love, care, and attention to detail.

We choose high-quality materials and focus on craftsmanship, ensuring your space is as durable as it is beautiful. Our customers tell us that their homes become beloved parts of their lives, and they love being involved in the process to make it truly personal.

Take a look at our Facebook page for photos of different styles and feedback from happy clients. We’d love to hear from you — whether you’re just beginning to dream or ready to start building your own perfect escape.

Our family’s tiny homes are full of love and warmth — and we want to share that with you.

Thank you for considering us!
