3. The Pego
Named Pego, this compact little home will accompany you on your adventures into the wild, supported by a solar panel setup. The home is pretty compact, but you shouldn’t judge it by its size, as it is packed with functionality and utility, making for an excellent micro-living option.

4. Crest Guesthouse
Designed by Mork-Ulnes Architects, the Crest Guesthouse is a lovely abode on a steep hillside plot in California. The home has a simple yet intriguing layout, one which resembles a Swiss Army knife. This maximizes the features of an otherwise compact, and not too spacious home. It represents how smart downsizing ideas can build a comfy home for a small family.
Why is it noteworthy?
The house measures around 400 square feet and is located in a forest. Since wildfires are common, the exterior is built using a fire-resistant cement board, which is pretty easy to maintain. A small deck was also incorporated to form a more usable outdoor space.
What we like
- Since the bed is essentially a Murphy bed installed into a wall, this forms a lot of free floor space
What we dislike

Why is it noteworthy?
Fujitsubo translates to “the barnacle”, and it occupies a space of only 538 square feet. This is pretty small in comparison to an average American home, which is five times bigger. The 3D-printed home includes one bedroom, and bathroom, as well as an open living room that is connected to the kitchen.
