"The humble shipping container continues to prove its versatility in architecture, and Backcountry Containers' latest project showcases just how much function can be packed into 20 feet of steel. The Teeny Tiny Haus, nestled in Stonewall, Texas, reimagines vacation living by squeezing a complete home for two into a single standard shipping container. This cleverly designed retreat demonstrates that thoughtful planning can transform industrial materials into comfortable living spaces."
"Measuring just 20 feet in length and 8 feet in width, the structure occupies roughly the same footprint as smaller European tiny houses. The compact dimensions forced Backcountry Containers to get creative with every square inch of available space. The result is an optimized 130 square feet that includes a bedroom, kitchen, and full bathroom, proving that essential amenities don't require sprawling square footage."
Backcountry Containers converted a standard 20-foot, 8-foot-wide shipping container into the Teeny Tiny Haus, a 130-square-foot vacation retreat for two in Stonewall, Texas. The layout includes a bedroom, kitchen, and full bathroom within the compact footprint. Large windows and a covered porch introduce natural light and extend living space outdoors, creating an indoor–outdoor connection that enhances perceived openness. The family-run company specializes in transforming industrial containers into durable, low-maintenance homes and has expanded from single-unit builds to multi-container custom projects. The portfolio ranges from container pools and saunas to multi-bedroom residences and includes a 40-foot Kennedy Model featured on HGTV.
