In Brief

Two compact living projects on wheels: a 43 sq m trailer renovation in Malibu and the new 6-meter Ynez model from Timbercraft Tiny Homes

Two notable projects have emerged in the compact living-on-wheels market. In Malibu, a 43 sq m trailer renovation has been completed for a couple and two dogs. The project was carried out by designer Alana Marie and contractor Jeff Spiegel.

Features of the Malibu trailer

  • Layout changed: partitions removed, attic opened for natural light
  • Built-in storage systems added
  • Finishes include wood (cedar, walnut) and Moroccan zellige tile
  • Key feature: a kitchen island around which the entire space is organized

Meanwhile, Timbercraft Tiny Homes has introduced the Ynez mobile mini-living cabin on a trailer. The model is about 6 meters long and includes a kitchen, bathroom with shower, and a bunk bed sleeping area. Its compact size is positioned as an advantage for mobility compared to larger RVs.
