Completely Organic Tiny House

For those who are bored with the crowd of the city, the idea of ​​living in an environment far from the city, and being in touch with nature has now become attractive. To turn this idea into reality, you can take your tent and set it up wherever you want. However, for some of us, this solution may not be very realistic due to the tiny creatures found in the natural environment. But for those who want to escape the city life and live away from the tiny creatures, there are really tiny cottages and houses. The tiny house in this article is a very good example of this.

The pioneer of the “World Architecture” movement, Japanese architect Tono Mirai created his latest work, the tiny house in the middle of the forest- as if it were sprouting from the ground. At first glance, this tiny house looks like an organism that lives in harmony with the forest. Earth and wood were used in the construction of this tiny house, whose shape resembles a half egg.
