Mini Domy's new A-frame squeezes home comforts into a very compact triangle
Mini Domy's new A-frame lands in that sweet spot between the company's tiny mini version and its roomier Brda model. It's still compact, no one's mistaking this triangle for a sprawling cabin, but it adds the kind of home comforts that make you wonder why you'd settle for less. A proper kitchen. A bathroom that doesn't require contortion. The geometry is familiar, but the proportions are new. Mini Domy knows A-frames, and this one feels like the result of asking: what if we kept the footprint small but stopped treating the interior like a weekend camping trip? It's a razor-clam detail in a category full of compromises. For more clever ways tiny homes dodge the squeeze, check out our earlier piece on ten strategies that make small spaces work.
The eVista XL proves a tiny house can dodge the usual compromises
The eVista XL Limited Edition doesn't ask you to apologize for your stuff. It just quietly makes room for it. This single-story tiny house dodges the usual compromises by being ruthlessly smart about its footprint, which is exactly the kind of thinking we like to see. Compact usually means a ladder to a loft and a shower you have to step sideways into. Not here. The floor plan works like a real home, not a weekend dare. If you are already wondering how they fit three bedrooms into 24 feet, our piece on that sharpened-pencil model will scratch the itch. The eVista XL proves that "tiny" does not have to mean "squeezed." It just means you have to be clever. And this one clearly is.
That lamp from 1969 is back and yes it still works
A lamp from 1969 is back, and it still works. That's the kind of detail that makes me stop scrolling. Most statement lighting presents a familiar dilemma: a lamp can give a room personality, but the more attention it demands, the harder it can be to live with. This one sidesteps that entirely. It was designed decades ago, and someone decided it deserved another shot. I love that. No reinvention, no "smart" nonsense, just a working lamp that already knew what it was doing before most of us were born. The question isn't whether it looks good. It's whether we're ready for a design that doesn't need a hype video to prove itself.
