Professionally prepared, fully detailed construction drawings, including materials order lists and cost estimates, of a range of very affordable small home and cabin designs which are comprehensive and complete enough to not only be submitted to your local Council for approval as is (in most Australian states), but also given to local builders, tradesmen, and materials suppliers for competitive quotes.
These tiny homes are designed to be as economical, durable, and energy efficient as possible, while also being stylish, functional, and no bigger than necessary. A simple floor plan and standard construction details ensure they are easily buildable just about anywhere in Australia using readily available off-the-shelf materials and conventional construction techniques. They are also dimensioned to accommodate standard-sized wall, floor, and roof sheets in easily handled sizes to minimise waste and labour and are structurally designed in compliance with the (Australian) SAA Light Timber Framing Code. If required, they can easily be modified to comply with local bushfire (BAL) regulations and cyclonic conditions.
The design philosophy embraces simple modern minimalism, combined with the belief that houses built onsite, by local tradesmen, using locally purchased (and sourced, if possible) materials, can be more socially responsible, more attractive, more robust, and more affordable than factory-built prefabricated houses. Detailed drawings, complete materials order lists, and up-to-date cost estimates will be available for purchase on this website before the end of 2026.
