The 32-foot tiny gooseneck home located in the hills of Northern California allows Nicole to live comfortably with her dog. Having moved from a room to the tiny house, her stuff all fit in the uniquely built home that offers optimal storage space.

Within the last decade, tiny homes have been a coveted alternative living option. They offer just enough space and allow one to dramatically cut down on their energy and utility bills. At the same time, they promote a more mindful existence, where homeowners don't over-consume items that deplete resources and fill up space.

As the blog Avrame wrote, "The green impact of such a radical change in lifestyle goes way beyond a checklist of benefits. As you scale back your buying habits and experience a simpler way of life, you're likely to notice major shifts in your way of thinking."

One study published in the Journal of Architecture, shared by Taylor & Francis, found that the energy consumption of tiny homes is significantly less than those of traditional houses. The growing popularity of the homes can majorly dismantle the negative impacts of McMansions that, in turn, require copious amounts of energy. 

In recent years, the popularity of tiny homes has meant higher building and purchase costs. Nevertheless, the substantial decrease in energy usage could outweigh the cost over a number of years. 

More practically, tiny homes indicate a shift in attitudes toward individual efforts to support the environment. Where some can't go off to buy a tiny home at the drop of a hat, they can appreciate the minimalist practices and adopt some of the tips that tiny home-owners are using.

TikTok users were astounded by the home.
