we just moved on from our last cabin that was 10x12. we now have a bush property of 7.5 acres. the regional laws only allow 108sqft without a permit.
Im thinking 9x12 as to keep it at 108, or 10x10. we want 2 story with the upper floor being just a little over 6ft at the center of a peeked roof.
im looking for some ideas what it will look like. if someone has something like that could you please post some pictures.

I would definitely go with a gambrel. More work, more materials but more room upstars.

Have a look at the "Tumbleweed Tiny House Company". Even though they build on trailers they are famous for well thought out designs in the size you are looking at building.

I would be careful about building anything that is really narrow and tall. Strong winds could tip it over.

we were thinking the barn type roof will give us the most room upstairs. I like the little stairs too , better than a ladder.
