Light-filled tiny house hides a drop-down bed
March 7, 2018
There’s no shortage of cleverly designed, modern tiny homes, but the new Sturgis model from Cubist Engineering still manages to keep a few impressive tricks up its sleeve. The 21.5-foot by 8.5-foot structure is clad in charred cypress siding with an oversized picture window and a hydraulic door opening into a 4-foot by 8-foot configurable “obsession space”, which is shown in the model as a child’s bedroom but could also be a workshop or motorcycle garage.

Designing small yet sophisticated spaces is quite a challenge – but Cubist Engineering proves it can be done with the Sturgis tiny home. The compact 21.5′ x 8.5′ space packs a big punch when it comes to beautiful design.

Cubist Engineering is offering this 170-square-foot modern gem of a tiny house that's built with one of our favourite materials: cross-laminated timber.

Sturgis tiny house saves space with novel motorized bed

Greenwich, New York-based Cubist Engineering has designed a really interesting towable tiny house. Named the Sturgis, it measures just 21 ft (6.4 m)-long, but seems more spacious inside thanks to not having a standard bedroom – instead, when it's time to hit the sack, a bed is lowered down from the ceiling at the flick of a switch.

Tiny Homes You’ll Want to Take on the Road — And Actually Can
September 29, 2017
“Cubist Engineering, a startup in upstate New York, has a different vision forsmall modular structures. Think lakeside retreats, backyard offices, private studios, pool houses. Or the most fantastic digs at the RV park in Yosemite, complete with enormous glass windows, a wraparound deck and a sleek minimalist design ...”
Dwell featured homes
“How do you make a 160-square-foot retreat feel like a splurge rather than a sacrifice? Don’t skimp on the comforts. In Cubist Engineering’s The Sturgis, a pre-fab guest suite built entirely out of 3-inch thick cross-laminated-timber panels, that means none of the typical ‘tiny space’ corner cutting.”

“We combined the idea of looking for new and innovative materials and technologies, and clean lines of modern designs warmed up with an organic feel.”
Brick & wonder
“The Sturgis gets its name from the bonus space that can be configured for whatever you need with you when you get away. The home includes a spa-like bathroom with outdoor shower, full kitchen with induction cook top, fridge and deep sink.”
