Tasmania is known for its beautiful landscapes and picturesque environment, and it's no wonder people are turning to the island to look for homes for their family. Grand Designs Australia recently visited to show one couple's journey on constructing a tiny home in the wilderness. On this episode of the show, it showed the viewers the construction and design of a small home but with modern amenities and stylish decor that will make anyone feel right at home. The homeowners wanted a home that was equipped with modern technology and features, but also wanted it to blend in and not look out of place with its surroundings. With this in mind, they incorporated elements of the Tasmanian landscape into their construction and design. By using locally sourced materials, such as wooden planks with timbercloaks for the walls, they were able to create a space that truly felt like it was a part of the Tasmanian environment. They also used design elements such as exposed beams and metal slats to give the home a modern edge, without making it appear out of place. The end result was a beautiful tiny home that was in perfect harmony with the natural environment of Tasmania. Grand Designs Australia showcased this stunning example of art deco house design at its best in Tasmanian Tiny Homes.Grand Designs Australia: Tiny Homes Tasmania
