If you’ve been dreaming of building your very own tiny house but you don’t have a clue where to begin, Pin-Up Houses is an awesome starting point.

Pin-Up Houses is a company founded by Joshua Woodsman, graduate from Czech Technical University, Department of Architecture, in Prague. The Czech Republic is a country where cottage living has a rich tradition. Joshua’s dream was to bring that tradition into the modern era and develop plans for tiny houses that anyone could afford and build.

On Pin-Up Houses, you can purchase plans for tiny houses, cabins, cottages, playhouses, and sheds. These plans are designed to be affordable; you can purchase a complete step-by-step DIY guide, materials list, tools list, and set of construction progress diagrams for around $300 or less for most of them. You should also be able to actually complete the project for around $10,000 in most cases—some of these can even be built for a couple thousand dollars or less.

So many people are deterred from trying to build their own tiny house either because they don’t have a clue what they need to get started, or because they think a tiny house is outside their budget. Pin-Up Houses makes tiny house living available for all.

Now I want to show you some of the amazing little cottages and cabins you can build using Pin-Up Houses’ plans. Whether you decide to purchase a set of plans or you just use these for inspiration for your own ideas, I hope you will love these designs as much as I do!

Tiny Houses

This quirky house has a delightful design where the walls push outward. These unexpected angles give it a playful sense of lighthearted fun. They also provide the interior space with a sense of openness. As with all of Pin-Up Houses’ designs, you can customize this one to fit the dimensions that you like. You can also modify the colors, though I love the zany bright blue and the grey in the picture!
