Thousand Crow is an innovative tiny house in Vancouver, a city known for its ridiculous rental and housing market. This 18.5 square meter home was constructed by Camera Buildings for Vancouver resident Isabella Mori.
The house sits on a trailer and a set of wheels, and can be towed to different locations without an additional permit. It consists of one primary space plus a door that leads to a small bathroom with a shower and composting toilet. The layout of the home is simple but intelligent, and leave a surprising amount of room.
