Description:

    The foldable tiny house movement, also known as the “small-house movement” is an architectural and social movement that advocates living simply in small homes. As of 2018 there is no set definition as to what constitutes a tiny house. However, a residential structure under 400 square feet (37m2) is generally considered a tiny home. The tiny-house movement promotes financial prudence, economically safe, shared community experiences, and a shift in consumerism-driven mindsets.

They design and built such type tiny houses on fixed brackets with wheels, so as long as they go outdoors, travelings, on vacations, then take them wherever they go, which is also very convenient for their life. This lifestyle has formed a trend in the Australian and New Zealand markets, and more and more young people are beginning to accept it and gradually prefer to this house.
