Tiny Houses appeal to a wide range of people! They promise simplicity, freedom and adventure. However TV series and social media can gloss over or exaggerate aspects of the time and emotions involved in the process of simplifying your lifestyle and safely building and parking a Tiny House.
You want to watch a Tiny House TV series that is relevant to Australian regulations and climate. Shows that give you a helpful idea of what’s really possible for your dream home. We’ve curated a shortlist of shows we recommend to discover what tiny homeowners wish they’d done differently and what they love.
Tiny House Australia
In 2015 Foxtel’s LifeStyle Home channel aired an 8 part series Tiny House Australia.
The show is hosted by Andrew Winter from Selling Houses Australia and in each 30 minute episode follows prospective homebuyers in search of their dream Tiny House. It’s slightly dated yet worth watching if you have Foxtel or AppleTV.

Although US based, Australian viewers can benefit from the experiences and design ideas to get closer to knowing what they want in a home. Tiny House Nation shows the steps it takes to design and construct a Tiny Home and the final results.

Living Big in a Tiny House is a YouTube series started in 2013 by our friend Bryce Langston from New Zealand. It documents the lives of people around the world who live in unique and interesting small homes.
The show explores all kinds of downsized living, including Tiny Houses on wheels, micro-apartments, cabins, treehouses, earth homes, shipping container homes, busses, vans, and everything in between.
With weekly episodes, it delves into the lives of people who are choosing to live an alternative lifestyle in unconventional architecture. It’s a great series with regular, relevant content that will really help you discover your Tiny House vision.

While researching Tiny House TV series we came across shows like Tiny House Builders, Tiny House Hunters and Tiny House Luxury, some of which are franchises of Tiny House Nation. These shows didn’t make our curated list because they’re not helpful when it comes to building a Tiny House in Australia and could just add to the overwhelm of too much information!
