TINY MODERN RETREAT
Project Type: Custom Residential (Concept)Location: Woodlands, TexasProject Size: 480 sq.ft.Tiny modern getaway home located on top of a small hill surrounded by trees, nature, animals, birds and plenty of sunlight. Sounds like a perfect place to spend a few days away from the city, close to nature while maintaining a comfort of having a home. Those several days might make one reconsider one's lifestyle, since less than 500 square feet are able to offer all the necessities one would need for a short-term stay. While a cabin in the woods may make someone feel very bushcrafty, this modern tiny retreat gives off a feeling of modern comfort for nature and peace lovers. Ship lap siding, expansive windows, wooden deck with comfortable furniture speaks of modern freedom and tranquility. Double-sloped roof breaks up the monotony of the "white box" home and minimal landscaping around it minimizes its presence on the hill, thus allowing the nature to take over.
Bright siding paired with bright furniture elevate one’s presence around the nature’s beauty. Sliding glass door always keeps the inside lit and offers especially magnificent view of the outdoors at night. Imagine waking up with the dawn, sipping a cup of coffee and enjoying the waking of life around you, the tweeting of birds, the sounds of insects, the waving of trees with the breeze as well as that magnificent scent of morning dew.
Bright and airy interior paired with simple modern artwork harmonize the space. Green accent furniture and wall in the back create a unique feeling of peace and modernity. Not much is needed in this retreat to offer comfort for several people. No-wall interior with countertop separating the kitchen from living/sleeping area offer a bright and unobstructed inside space. Restroom with a shower, as well as the laundry machine conveniently located in the back, thus maximizing the usability of the interior. 
Few interior decor items offer a pleasurable experience for the short-term residents. Wooden trim around windows create a homey feel and a space to set your long-awaited series of books. Modern tiny getaway is a place for many to enjoy being away from their mundane lives. Blissful landscape paired with being located on top of a hill offer an expansive view of the nature around. This home is meant to make you fall in love with nature and maybe build a tiny modern retreat home of your own some day.
