Compact Space-Saving Homes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Ridgeline Tiny Homes Designs the Hartley Tiny House

— September 4, 2024 — Art & Design
Ridgeline Tiny Homes designs the Hartley tiny house, which is larger than the brand's Sun Valley tiny home comprised of a length of 27.6 feet. It is compact in general with the extra space added to form a layout that would perfectly accommodate a family of four.

It rests on top of a double-axle trailer base and is finished with black metal cladding at the exterior for a stealthy look. The home is designed with generous glazing which brings in plenty of sunlight to stream in throughout the day. It is powered by a classic RV-style hookup when it is on the go. To enter the home, there is a double glass door set that welcomes visitors into a 290-square-foot floor plan.

Trend Themes
1. Stealthy Exterior Cladding - Homes featuring black metal cladding offer a modern and discreet aesthetic that enhances privacy and blends into diverse environments.
2. Generous Glazing - Abundant use of glazing in compact homes ensures that natural light can maximize interior brightness and reduce reliance on artificial lighting.
3. Mobile Living Spaces - The integration of homes with double-axle trailer bases empowers mobility, offering adaptable living solutions that can traverse varied locations.
Industry Implications
1. Real Estate - The real estate industry can explore the development of compact, mobile living solutions to cater to a growing market of homeowners seeking flexibility and affordability.
2. Construction - A shift towards modular construction methods can support rapid development and customization of compact, yet highly functional living spaces like the Hartley tiny house.
3. Renewable Energy - Incorporating renewable energy solutions into mobile homes can create self-sustaining living environments that reduce dependency on traditional RV-style hookups.
