11 Beautiful Tiny House Interior Design Ideas

There are so many possibilities for approaching Tiny House interior design that knowing where to start can be overwhelming. 

Begin with one of our Architect designed models and make adjustments from there to align to your work in the space, multiple occupancy and so you can comfortably have visitors. 

Once you’ve visioned the big picture layout, add the design aspects suggested below. Then reach out and let us guide you every step of the way. 

With 35 years experience in building and design, we’ve noticed how budget and stress levels can blow out when clients try to squeeze in all their ideas onto a blank canvas.

Start with a standard model and personalise your space.

Here’s how some of our clients have designed their spaces to successfully accommodate their individual needs, within budget and keeping within project completion dates. 

The Living Room – streamlined shelves, contrasting wood finishes and the best couch  for your space

Filmmaker Ty Van Haren and partner Cynana Ferreira added shelving that flowed from the kitchen to the living area of their Mooloolaba home. They chose two wood finishes to differentiate the living and kitchen areas from the bedroom and bathroom.

The Mooloolaba is a light filled home with high ceilings and a loft bedroom which lends itself wonderfully to personalised touches.

To compare another wood finish colour combination, watch the video tour of the Mooloolaba 7.2m.

To create a comfortable yet spacious room, consider the couch options below from a built-in, spare bed, kid-friendly couch to a light cane movable two-seater. When deciding where the windows, door and couch will go, begin with a standard Tiny House model from our range, let us know which type of couch you prefer and we’ll lay out the options for you to choose from more easily. 

The Kitchen – off-set benchtops, light-filled doorways and the impact of white

Full of small space design ideas, this Hampton style house was one of the first homes we built.

Megan and Colin’s bespoke 12m design is big as far as Tiny Houses go and every corner is used to create storage and functionality in this beautiful permanent home. Aussie Tiny Houses built the shell and ex-cabinet maker Colin finished the interior of the house with his daughter who’s an interior designer. 

The kitchen bench is off-set to the breakfast bar at the window, which is a feature in many of our standard Tiny Houses and we love how it breaks up the tight feeling that can happen in a galley kitchen. 

The windowed door allows light to flood the kitchen and gives a sense of space while the white colour scheme maintains uninterrupted flow. If you’re considering a single level home with fantastic storage ideas, watch the video tour of this design featured on Living Big in a Tiny House.

The Bathroom – stylish shelving and a clean colour palette

Wooden ceilings in a Tiny House bathroom add a touch of the spa holiday feeling and a great contrasting feature which surprisingly makes the bathroom feel more spacious.

Amy and Greg @life_done_simple complemented the wooden ceiling and benchtop of their Teewah 7.2m family home with wooden shelves above the bench and toilet. The contrasting black fittings and mirror frame tie the palette together for a fresh finish.

The Bedroom – lofts, clutter-free comfort and skylights

Amy and Greg’s Teewah 7.2m has a second loft for their two kids plus a large comfortable couch that doubles as a spare bed. The shelves in the living area are similar to those in the bathroom, bringing consistency to the overall theme of the home. 

When decorating a small space it’s important to avoid clutter yet create a sense of comfort. See inside Amy and Greg’s beautifully designed and decorated family Teewah featured on Living Big in a Tiny House.

Amanda Lee created a smart solution with us and built two Tiny’s!

One of her Casuarina models is the children’s bedrooms. This allows for ample storage and everyone to have their own room. 

The children’s rooms look the same as they did in their old place but now in an Aussie Tiny House they feel more special.

A sky light, with optional blind, adds something special to your tiny lifestyle. Not every house owner can look at the stars or wake with the sun!

The Deck – wrap around, covered and spacious

A 2m to 3m deep covered deck transforms a Tiny House into a spacious retreat. Aaron and Rahel from Slide Coffee added a wraparound deck to their Mooloolaba 7.2m after parking it on family land. 

Most of our clients build their own decks. We can help you with the design and recommend the cost-effective option for you to use local materials and a handy-man to get it built.

Amanda Lee built a house for herself and her two kids with two Tiny Houses parked on family land. The covered deck brings the two buildings together and creates more space to play, eat and relax. 

Covering all or part of your deck is what brings luxury to practicality. Choose from Colorbond or temperature reducing Laserlite to keep the heat of the sun from hitting the outside walls of your home. Create space to sit outside and watch the rain.
