Marie is a biologist and animal therapist. She has spent most of her life moving from one place to another with her son, working, renovating houses, and harnessing her skills. Finally, she settled in an idyllic French countryside and built a simple but practical tiny house out of a fairground trailer with an extension. Marie’s tiny house is the epitome of having less in more. It is a low-tech, sufficient, and very thoughtful dwelling.
The land she lives on with her horses and dogs is a quiet escape that fuels her creativity and imagination. Along with a tiny house, she has a semi-buried greenhouse, shed, and semi-buried cabins for herself and her son. There are solar panels and a huge water tank for rainwater harvesting. She also built a boiler that heats the water during winter. She has a laundry bike that she uses to wash her clothes simultaneously.
Marie’s tiny house is nothing short of spectacular. Inside, nothing is fancy but has a very simple and practical layout. There is a big living room, a kitchen, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. She has a living room with minimal furniture, only a striking red cabinet, some wooden cabinets, two rocking chairs, and a self-built foldable chair that is lightweight and space-saving.
Instead of a dining table, she has a simple table with wheels for mobility. Little details such as oracle cards, flower of life, a guitar from her parents, and furniture from her grandmother add emotional value to her house.
Across the living area is her kitchen. It has an L-shaped countertop, a sink, red drawers and cabinets, and hooks for hanging pots, pans, and mugs. There is a cooktop, a range hood, and a fireplace to keep the house warm during cold days. Next to the kitchen is her working desk with additional storage.

Adjacent is Marie’s bedroom. There is no door, just a curtain for privacy. The room is bright and comfy, full of storage. On the other side is a bathroom in the hallway. It has a bathtub and shower, a second-hand vanity sink, and a composting toilet.
At the end of the hall is her son’s bedroom. It accommodates a twin-size bed, and a cabinet painted by his grandmother. Marie has been living in this tiny house for three years, the build of which cost her €10,000 ($10,830). This journey of self-sufficiency and freedom truly makes Marie’s tiny house full of inspiration.
