Who would have thought that a shipping container can be easily transformed into a very modern-looking tiny house? This tiny home with a cool rooftop deck can be found in Long Beach, California and is 160 square feet. The 20’ shipping container made of wood was converted into a home and has an additional front deck beside the one on the rooftop. The small but welcoming interior was decorated in a simple way, using warm colors so the entire space looks bright and clean.

It has a kitchen and a bathroom with a shower, and a small living area. But thanks to its decks, the container looks more spacious as you have several places where you can relax and enjoy the sunlight on a Summer day. Investing into a container house might be a great idea for anyone who is looking to add a tiny guesthouse to their yard, but don’t want to invest a lot of money into building one from scratch.

Most of the time, tiny houses have some extra features that will make them even more attractive for adventurers and not only. Many tiny houses have excellent storage features, an upstairs loft space, a cozy deck or a cool rooftop. This last feature is also true for this next tiny home, called Basecamp, which has a waterproof roof deck that can be reached through a “hobbit door” from the bedroom. The house was built by two engineers, Tina and Luke, who are husband and wife and love to climb mountains in their spare time.

“Basecamp is named for its unique and ultimate storage solutions that can cater to almost every hobby. Boosting a beautiful rooftop deck, this design is built for tiny home owners with passions to spare that want a home base for all of their adventures. Have pets? No problem! Basecamp comes with pet-friendly options you can pick and choose from.”
