Short description
The Tiny House 2025 Architecture Competition has been recently organized by magazine ’Volume Zero’ inviting everyone worldwide to participate.
Participants are to design a Tiny House for 2 people that would provide a comfortable living space.
The design of the Tiny House should be innovative and creative with a sustainable edge. The area of the proposed Tiny House should not exceed 300 sq. ft..
Mobility being a vital factor, the house need not be self-mobile, but should be treated as an extension that can be towed easily by a car or pickup truck. However, the participants can avoid the issue of mobility altogether by providing a strong justification for the same.
A Home is a space that is intimate to all of us. It goes beyond an everyday function of being a physical shelter for people and their activities; a home connects with its users at a personal and emotional level.
Our humble abodes are being redefined with every passing day. The world is changing constantly, and along with it, our homes are seeing us spend more time within them. The built form of a home is evolving rapidly, its design adapting to various other needs that were not limited to this space before. Homes today are versatile entities – doubling up as offices, play areas, work-out zones, spaces for interaction and recreation, as alsobeing an abode for our furry friends and providing for their needs.
A space that is transformative, multi-functional, and ever evolving to adapt to us and our loved ones. A Home is no longer just a place you live in but is a place that lives with you.

➜ Living Area
➜ Sleeping Area for 2

➜ Toilet space

➜ Any other function that the participant wishes to add to the Tiny House
