Though it only has a modest length of 7.8 m (25.7 ft), the Gerês tiny house manages to squeeze in sleeping space for up to six people. The tiny house also has several optional upgrades available, including running fully off-grid.
Designed by Portugal's Casagaea, the Gerês is based on a double-axle trailer and is clad in engineered wood, with a small storage box located near the tow hitch.
The interior of the home measures 30 sq m (322 sq ft) and is arranged around a central open living area. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, an induction cooktop, a sink, a fridge/freezer, and a breakfast bar seating area. Like the firm's Algarve model, there are some nice little touches in here, such as indirect lighting and a pop-up power outlet integrated into the cabinetry.
Situated next to the kitchen is the living room, which has a sofa bed that sleeps two, plus space for an entertainment center. Additionally, a wood-burning stove can be installed.
The bathroom is reached from the kitchen, via an unusual sliding door that has integrated shelving. It looks pretty snug in there but includes a vanity sink, a glass-enclosed shower, and a flushing toilet.
There are two bedrooms in the Gerês. The main bedroom is positioned above the kitchen/bathroom and reached by a storage-integrated staircase. It has a low ceiling and contains a double bed, plus a little storage. The secondary bedroom, meanwhile, is accessed by a removable ladder and also has a low ceiling and enough space for a double bed.
While six adults under one roof (and sharing one bathroom) would make for a very cozy living arrangement, it should be doable for vacations and short stays. For full-time living, it would likely be better suited to a smaller family or a couple.
Alongside the off-grid setup mentioned, the Gerês has several other optional upgrades available, including customized materials, furniture, and layout. We've no word on the price or delivery options, so those interested are best getting in touch with the firm directly.
