A walk-in wardrobe and a wine cellar aren't the obvious priorities when you're building tiny. Peter and Marie found room for both, with the latter tucked beneath the floor of their Danish home, in a compartment big enough for two people.
Their tour with Bryce Langston has drawn about 69,000 views since yesterday. But the storage surprises are only part of what makes this visit worth a look: outside the house, the couple have been turning a pine monoculture into a garden of edible plants, with ducks among its inhabitants.
Inside, two rather different preferences had to meet. As Marie puts it: "Peter wanted to live in a greenhouse... I wanted to live in a den."
The result combines expansive windows and hanging plants with timber, clay-rendered walls and a sleeping loft. A stained-glass window made by Peter's father adds something personal above the practicalities. In colder months, a compact woodstove handles heating and cooking, complementing the warmth gained through the windows.
Peter began building on a repurposed boat trailer in 2019. He says they came within a few hundred euros of their €20,000 budget, largely by salvaging surplus construction materials. Marie's window-shopping story is particularly useful: buying leftovers from large building projects meant they acquired all their windows for the price of one.
The garden gets substantial time before Bryce even steps indoors. The couple share the property with tenants in the main house and use a shared conservatory for workshops on permaculture and medicinal plants. Later, Marie demonstrates drying herbs and fruit, connecting the growing space to everyday meals rather than treating it simply as scenery.
After nearly seven years in the house, Peter says this isn't a temporary arrangement. With the forest garden's establishment phase winding down, their plans include weekend courses and garden tours: more ways to share the place they've built.
