00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:02.780 align:middle line:84%
DYLAN: Our goal is to
just enjoy the countryside

00:00:02.780 --> 00:00:03.700 align:middle line:90%
while we're young.

00:00:03.700 --> 00:00:05.770 align:middle line:84%
We can travel with
the jobs we have.

00:00:05.770 --> 00:00:07.460 align:middle line:84%
We don't miss this
opportunity to do this.

00:00:07.460 --> 00:00:15.650 align:middle line:90%


00:00:15.650 --> 00:00:16.580 align:middle line:90%
AMY: Hi, I'm Amy.

00:00:16.580 --> 00:00:17.550 align:middle line:90%
DYLAN: And I'm Dylan.

00:00:17.550 --> 00:00:19.070 align:middle line:90%
AMY: And this is our tiny house.

00:00:19.070 --> 00:00:22.880 align:middle line:84%
DYLAN: Our house is 24 foot
by eight and a half by 13 foot

00:00:22.880 --> 00:00:24.210 align:middle line:90%
tall.

00:00:24.210 --> 00:00:26.270 align:middle line:84%
AMY: We started off with
what's called a shell.

00:00:26.270 --> 00:00:30.350 align:middle line:84%
So it was just a basic structure
set on top of a trailer.

00:00:30.350 --> 00:00:33.200 align:middle line:84%
And we did everything else--
the siding, we did the roofing,

00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:34.820 align:middle line:84%
we did the insulation,
the electric,

00:00:34.820 --> 00:00:38.700 align:middle line:84%
the plumbing, all the cabinetry,
the walls, the floors.

00:00:38.700 --> 00:00:41.390 align:middle line:90%
It's definitely a labor of love.

00:00:41.390 --> 00:00:44.190 align:middle line:84%
So let us show you
around a little bit.

00:00:44.190 --> 00:00:46.400 align:middle line:84%
The outside of our
house kind of has

00:00:46.400 --> 00:00:48.630 align:middle line:84%
a unique design, where
it's split in between two

00:00:48.630 --> 00:00:49.430 align:middle line:90%
different material.

00:00:49.430 --> 00:00:51.510 align:middle line:84%
It doesn't really serve
a certain purpose.

00:00:51.510 --> 00:00:53.210 align:middle line:84%
We just like the
way that it looked.

00:00:53.210 --> 00:00:55.610 align:middle line:84%
DYLAN: Our roof is a special
material called [INAUDIBLE],,

00:00:55.610 --> 00:00:57.440 align:middle line:84%
which is actually an
asphalt byproduct.

00:00:57.440 --> 00:00:59.000 align:middle line:90%
It's very DIY friendly.

00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:00.972 align:middle line:84%
And it's hurricane rated,
which is very important to us.

00:01:00.972 --> 00:01:02.405 align:middle line:84%
Because our house is
going down the highway

00:01:02.405 --> 00:01:05.450 align:middle line:90%
at 70 miles an hour sometimes.

00:01:05.450 --> 00:01:07.550 align:middle line:84%
For me, I absolutely
needed this living room

00:01:07.550 --> 00:01:10.460 align:middle line:84%
to have a media center that I
could come home to and relax

00:01:10.460 --> 00:01:11.900 align:middle line:90%
on the couch and watch TV.

00:01:11.900 --> 00:01:16.020 align:middle line:84%
So part of that was having
a projector to save space.

00:01:16.020 --> 00:01:18.605 align:middle line:84%
The other thing was actually
storing a lot of my electronics

00:01:18.605 --> 00:01:20.274 align:middle line:90%
up in that loft area.

00:01:20.274 --> 00:01:21.940 align:middle line:84%
As you can tell, we have
this really high ceiling.

00:01:21.940 --> 00:01:24.690 align:middle line:84%
And it's great to hide all
these different devices.

00:01:24.690 --> 00:01:29.420 align:middle line:84%
So to hide this away and keep
Amy happy was a big deal.

00:01:29.420 --> 00:01:31.370 align:middle line:84%
And then over on this
side, this is what you'd

00:01:31.370 --> 00:01:33.590 align:middle line:90%
call our dining room area.

00:01:33.590 --> 00:01:34.610 align:middle line:90%
This looks like a chalkboard.

00:01:34.610 --> 00:01:37.250 align:middle line:84%
But Amy built this so
that it folds down.

00:01:37.250 --> 00:01:38.990 align:middle line:84%
And it's held up
by two magnets that

00:01:38.990 --> 00:01:42.530 align:middle line:84%
keep the table up against
the wall when we're moving.

00:01:42.530 --> 00:01:43.940 align:middle line:84%
In order to actually
sit at the table,

00:01:43.940 --> 00:01:46.330 align:middle line:90%
we have to pull out chairs.

00:01:46.330 --> 00:01:49.680 align:middle line:84%
And then Amy can sit at the
table to eat her dinner.

00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:51.720 align:middle line:84%
AMY: We do sometimes
actually eat dinner together.

00:01:51.720 --> 00:01:53.767 align:middle line:84%
He was just saying that
it's just me eating dinner.

00:01:53.767 --> 00:01:55.200 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHS]

00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:58.090 align:middle line:84%
DYLAN: So off of our dining
room is the kitchen area,

00:01:58.090 --> 00:01:59.730 align:middle line:90%
with this long countertop.

00:01:59.730 --> 00:02:01.830 align:middle line:84%
Most of our appliances
are full-sized,

00:02:01.830 --> 00:02:03.030 align:middle line:90%
including the sink here.

00:02:03.030 --> 00:02:05.990 align:middle line:84%
The cabinet itself that this
countertop is on top of,

00:02:05.990 --> 00:02:07.110 align:middle line:90%
Amy built herself.

00:02:07.110 --> 00:02:11.190 align:middle line:84%
Every single drawer slide,
the painting, the handles--

00:02:11.190 --> 00:02:13.380 align:middle line:90%
everything was done by Amy.

00:02:13.380 --> 00:02:15.280 align:middle line:90%
So welcome to our bedroom.

00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:16.530 align:middle line:84%
Well, actually,
it's Mama's bedroom.

00:02:16.530 --> 00:02:17.910 align:middle line:90%
We just sleep up here.

00:02:17.910 --> 00:02:20.250 align:middle line:84%
AMY: We have a full-sized
bed up here, which

00:02:20.250 --> 00:02:22.200 align:middle line:90%
works fine for the three of us.

00:02:22.200 --> 00:02:24.540 align:middle line:84%
We took advantage of some
of the wall space up here.

00:02:24.540 --> 00:02:25.450 align:middle line:90%
We've got my uke.

00:02:25.450 --> 00:02:29.160 align:middle line:84%
I have a little side table
that I keep glasses and random

00:02:29.160 --> 00:02:30.450 align:middle line:90%
stuff at the end of the night.

00:02:30.450 --> 00:02:32.520 align:middle line:84%
We have outlets up here
to charge our phones.

00:02:32.520 --> 00:02:35.710 align:middle line:84%
So it's everything we
need in a space up here.

00:02:35.710 --> 00:02:36.960 align:middle line:84%
Also up here in
the loft, we have

00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:38.430 align:middle line:90%
some more clothing storage.

00:02:38.430 --> 00:02:40.240 align:middle line:84%
So we have one
basket up here that

00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:41.930 align:middle line:90%
kind of keeps my PJs and stuff.

00:02:41.930 --> 00:02:44.400 align:middle line:84%
But this serves a
nice dual purpose.

00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:46.510 align:middle line:84%
It's a little half wall, so
that we're not just going

00:02:46.510 --> 00:02:48.210 align:middle line:90%
to fall out of the loft here.

00:02:48.210 --> 00:02:53.150 align:middle line:84%
But then it also opens up, and
we've got five cubbies in here

00:02:53.150 --> 00:02:55.820 align:middle line:90%
for more folded clothing.

00:02:55.820 --> 00:02:57.720 align:middle line:84%
DYLAN: This is the most private
room in the entire house.

00:02:57.720 --> 00:02:58.980 align:middle line:90%
This is the bathroom.

00:02:58.980 --> 00:03:02.020 align:middle line:84%
There's plenty of space for
a shower, for our toilet,

00:03:02.020 --> 00:03:05.080 align:middle line:84%
and, also, a sink with
countertop space for Amy

00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:06.880 align:middle line:84%
to do her makeup and
store toothbrushes

00:03:06.880 --> 00:03:08.200 align:middle line:90%
and things like that.

00:03:08.200 --> 00:03:10.480 align:middle line:84%
So the really, really unique
thing about our tiny house

00:03:10.480 --> 00:03:13.330 align:middle line:84%
is that it's the only tiny
house featuring a smart mirror.

00:03:13.330 --> 00:03:16.660 align:middle line:84%
And that is basically an Android
tablet with a touch screen,

00:03:16.660 --> 00:03:20.050 align:middle line:84%
which allows you to look at
the internet, see the weather,

00:03:20.050 --> 00:03:21.007 align:middle line:90%
check the traffic.

00:03:21.007 --> 00:03:22.840 align:middle line:84%
Everything that you can do
with your phone or a tablet,

00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:25.190 align:middle line:84%
you can do with your
own bathroom mirror.

00:03:25.190 --> 00:03:28.210 align:middle line:90%


00:03:28.210 --> 00:03:30.840 align:middle line:84%
AMY: Thanks for checking
out our tiny home.

00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:32.117 align:middle line:90%
