Small House Floor Plan – 350 sq. ft.

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

This design by Joseph Sandy brings a lot of Wright’s work into it.

Beautiful design, flow and simplicity. I can’t wait to see the finished plan! This has really gotten me thinking!

At just under 350 sq. ft. this design is compact, yet still provides all of the necessary spaces. The kitchen is not small for a 350 sq. ft. house, and the table can easily be used for extra space when cooking. The half-booth dining table provides space for up to seven people. A queen size bed fits in the sleeping nook. There is a 25 sq. ft. closet for clothing and storage needs. The 5 ft. desk is a good place for studying and computer use. The living area has an L shaped couch that provides plenty of comfortable seating.

Latest (FUN!) Project

It was driving me nuts in some ways that we sold our teardrop to P&P so I was looking for something to do that wouldn’t take a lot of time, was easily built (and hence easy on my back) and unique.

While researching my dad’s side of the family a few weeks back I stumbled (once again) across the families original name on a site about Romnichels (gypsies). Hmm, serendipity?

The Gypsy Vardo is the project! Timothy Lemke (and crew) have put together a great book and plan set to build one.

More soon!
