The Harper tiny house provides a welcome change from the popular shed-like tiny home aesthetic that dominates the small living scene. Measuring 8 m (26 ft) in length, the stylish towable dwelling sleeps two and comes with optional off-grid functionality.
Designed by Australia’s Black Clay, the Harper tiny house is based on a triple-axle trailer and clad in an aluminum and steel exterior, which is curved on one side. Its interior is finished in birch ply lining, with oak flooring. And its size places it around midway between the smaller European tiny homes and larger North American models.
The interior looks furnished to a high standard and is arranged on one floor. Large bifold glass doors really help open up the home to the outside and connect to the kitchen, which is quite spacious for a tiny house. It has an induction cooktop, a mini-fridge, and cabinetry. More appliances, including an oven and dishwasher, can optionally be installed too.
Additionally, a storage-integrated sofa is connected to the main kitchen unit.

A divider separates the Harper tiny house’s living/kitchen area from its bedroom. This is a small and simple space that’s enlivened by the curving wall and also has ample headroom to stand upright thanks to the home’s single-floor layout, which is always a nice benefit in a tiny house. The room contains a double bed.
The bathroom is situated on the opposite side of the home to the bedroom and is accessed by sliding door. It has a shower, concrete sink, and a flushing toilet.
