A lot of tiny houses nowadays are designed to offer large and luxurious full-time homes for families, but Quadrapol’s Nid focuses on the basics. It provides a simple home for one or two people that’s best suited to short stays.
The Nid is based on a double-axle trailer and has a length of just 5.5 m (18 ft), making it small even for a tiny house. It comes in three versions, with this one, the Luxe, having the most features.
It’s finished in treated pine and topped with a steel roof, with lots of windows and a single entrance that opens into the kitchen. This is simple and small, with an induction cooktop, a hidden fridge, a sink, and some custom cabinets. Nearby lies a dining table that seats two, while there’s a small netted storage loft directly above.
Most of the remaining floorspace in this single-story house is taken up by its open living room. Though pictured with some seating, it can also double as a bedroom by installing an optional daybed that sleeps two and includes some storage space. A picture window helps fill the interior with natural light.
On the opposite side of the kitchen to the living room, lies the bathroom. This is as small as you’d expect. Accessed via sliding door it includes a shower, sink, and toilet.
The Nid Luxe model shown starts at US$44,000 though it can also be upgraded to run fully off-the-grid with a solar panel setup and water tanks at extra cost.
