REDUKT Tiny Houses

REDUKT houses models overview

October 16, 2024 in REDUKT houses

REDUKT mobile houses are our interpretation of a modern small living space that encourages a minimalist lifestyle and simplicity. A house reduced to what is essential.

Discover our models of tiny houses on wheels. These are six types of houses, with different shapes, spatial layouts and functional solutions that can meet a variety of user needs, for both rest and daily work.

1. REDUKT Country

The largest of the mobile houses in our offer, the REDUKT Country, is the ideal choice for lovers of a simple slow lifestyle. The 7.2 meters long house on a trailer with a sloping roof on one side is characterised by its open layout of a spacious living and sleeping area combined with a kitchen and separate bathroom. This layout guarantees easy access to each zone. The wide, open kitchen invites you to cook, while the mobile dining table gives you the possibility to arrange the interior to suit your current needs. The large amount of glazing enables an almost complete immersion in the surrounding nature. In addition, a practically designed chill-out area with a large bed provides both comfortable sleeping conditions and ample storage space.

The REDUKT Country is the most popular choice of our clients in the function of a micro hotel, for short-term rentals.

2. REDUKT PURA with stairs

REDUKT PURA with stairs is a model addressed to those who appreciate practicality and elegance. It is a 6.6 m long trailer house with a mezzanine (bedroom) with access by stairs, a corner sofa bed, a kitchenette and a bathroom. It has a well-organised space with a clearly defined relaxation and sleeping area for up to 4 people. This makes it ideal for couples and families. An additional advantage is the technical room located under the mezzanine with an access from the outside, which plays a key role when the house is equipped with a full off-grid package.

3. REDUKT PURA with ladder

The sister model of the REDUKT PURA house with stairs is the REDUKT PURA house with a ladder. Thanks to the specially designed mezzanine construction, this model offers additional work space.The ladder leading to the mezzanine adds a modern touch to the interior. It is the perfect choice for remote workers who need a cosy office in their tiny house.

Like each of our REDUKT houses, this one is characterised by the high quality of the certified materials used for construction, which ensures long-lasting usage.

4. REDUKT PURA_1Level

REDUKT PURA_1Level is a 6,6 meters long house model that focuses on simplicity and comfort. The characteristic large window right next to the bed and the one-level layout make the interior of this house perfect for the role of a micro hotel. Like the REDUKT Country, it is popular among hotel business owners who want to create a unique mobile retreat immersed in nature, offering guests the comfort of a rental space. Without sacrificing the luxury of a king-size bed, a fully equipped kitchen or a full-sized shower ;)

5. REDUKT ECHO

The REDUKT ECHO model is the essence of creative design and clever solutions. A characteristic feature of this house is an interior divided into four "rooms":

a bright and spacious living room combined with a kitchenette,
a second separate room under the mezzanine,
a bathroom with shower, washbasin and a toilet,
a mezzanine for sleeping but also with a desk as a quiet workspace.

Thanks to the possibility of adapting the space to the users' preferences, the ECHO model meets the needs of both singles and families. The layout of the rooms and the flexibility of their adaptation make it an ideal choice for those looking for a functional mobile home that will give them the freedom of decision when life changes. Without compromising on issues of privacy and personal space.

6. REDUKT ONE

The REDUKT ONE mobile home refers to a traditional shape of a house with a gable roof, which gives it a cosy character. This model of house is slightly smaller than the others – its length is just 6 meters – despite its small size it can accommodate up to 4 people. The biggest highlight of this cabin is the large amount of glazing, allowing you to experience being part of nature all around. Huge corner windows flanked by bi-fold doors ensure the best views and good lighting throughout the interior. The functional layout with a mezzanine has been arranged to emphasise the openness of the living space. Specially designed modular, multifunctional furniture is mobile to make even better use of the available space.

Whether you are looking for a mobile home for yourself or planning to start a hospitality business based on tiny houses, REDUKT has something for you. With a variety of models, as well as the ability to personalise the design and customise it to your individual needs, with us you can fulfil the dream of your own perfect house on wheels.

Discover our houses. REDUKT ONE

October 02, 2024

Our adventure with REDUKT mobile houses began in 2017 with a prototype trailer house with the iconic gabled roof and large window. The first house model named REDUKT-01, went through several stages of optimisation and modification. To this day, it remains in our offer as the REDUKT ONE model because of its unique character. What makes it so special?

REDUKT ONE tiny house on wheels, interior design, off-grid living — Mobile tiny house REDUKT ONE. Photo: REDUKT

The REDUKT ONE house refers to the traditional form of a house with a gable roof, which makes it cosy. The greatest feature of this house is the large amount of glazing, allowing you to experience nature. Huge double windows adjacent to double doors provide the best views and plenty of light throughout the interior. Here, on the sofa placed under these windows, you can sit with a cup of aromatic coffee in your hand to relax and immerse yourself in the beauty of the surrounding nature.

The functional, ground-floor layout with a mezzanine has been arranged to emphasise the openness of the living space. Specially designed modular, multifunctional furniture is mobile to make the best out of the available space. Walls and furniture made of natural plywood make the interior bright and luminous.

This house model is smaller than the others - it is 6 m long, 2.55 m wide and 3.95 m high. Despite its small size, it can accommodate up to four people. There is a full-size mattress on the mezzanine floor and an additional two sleeping places are gained by folding out the sofa bed. On level 0 there is also a fully equipped kitchenette and a bathroom with a shower.

The arrangement of the space is facilitated by multifunctional furniture - a staircase, integrated with a desk and bookcase, and a wardrobe with rod and shelves - in the form of two mobile modules, tucked under the mezzanine.

The house can be equipped with a full off-grid package, allowing it to function autonomously on the plot without access to utilities:

an internal water tank with pump,
photovoltaic installation with integrated battery and inverter,
a gas installation (water heating, cooking, heating),
and a wood burning stove with chimney installation and additional wall insulation.

With just a few square meters of space, you can live in complete comfort: without unnecessary distractions, in your own way, close to nature.

Wherever you want.

The technical room - the house control centre

September 17, 2024

All REDUKT off-grid mobile houses, despite their small footprint, have a specially separated functional space that accommodates key devices and systems for operation.

The technical room is the most important space in an off-grid house. It is where the control centre for all devices and systems is located, along with sensors. They ensure that the house is fully functional all year round.

It is accessible from the outside to look after the full efficiency of the house without having to go inside while guests are there, which is very important when using the houses as micro-hotels.

In our house models, the technical room is hidden under the mezzanine floor or next to the bathroom, thus ensuring efficient use of space on the trailer, as well as the expected easy access from the outside through the technical door.

In the same house models but in the on-grid version, the same space serves as a laundry room or utility storage, e.g. for supplies, tools or garden furniture.

REDUKT mobile homes provide their owners with year-round comfort on the plot thanks to an interior layout thought through in every detail.

Do I need to own the plot?

September 04, 2024

“Do I need to own the plot?” – this question often pops up in the considerations of our clients who want to start a hotel business based on tiny houses. The advantage of tiny houses among other creative hotel developments is that they can be set up in non-obvious locations, not previously considered for hotels or even on rented plots.

Microhotel business based on tiny houses

The new business model based on tiny houses on wheels relies on a three-way benefit. The parties benefiting are:

the owner of the rental cabin,
the owner of the land (landlord)
and the guests staying at the micro hotel.

Renting a plot of land speeds up the start of a hotel investment, plus allows flexibility of changing the location of the micro hotel.

Tiny bathrooms in mobile houses

August 21, 2024

We adapt the interiors of REDUKT tiny houses on wheels individually to the needs of our clients, even such tiny spaces as the bathroom. In the standard version, the tiny bathroom in our mobile house is equipped with a full-size shower, a waterless composting toilet and a washbasin with a small cabinet.

Here are some examples of bathroom designs in our REDUKT mobile houses:

In REDUKT houses we offer:

waterless composting toilet (Trobolo, Separett),
incineration electric or propane waterless toilet (Cinderella Comfort or Cinderella Freedom)
standard toilets, for on-grid houses only.

Wooden facades of REDUKT houses

August 07, 2024

The façade is the showpiece of any house. At REDUKT, we care not only about the appearance but also about the quality of the facades of mobile homes made of wood. They are what give our houses on wheels a modern, timeless and natural look.

Materials for the facades of REDUKT houses

The facades of REDUKT houses are usually made of spruce or pine wood. Our basic offer includes several colours of facade boards - from natural, light, through shades of grey and brown to black. In order to prolong their durability, we protect them with wood preservatives with the possibility of modifying the natural colour of the facade, e.g. REMMERS HK-Lazura 3in1.

Thermo-wood

Another material we use to cover the exterior of the cabins is thermo wood. Unprotected, it matures over time, taking on a noble dark silvery hue. It can be additionally oiled, so that it does not naturally turn grey when exposed to sunlight. Thermo wood is approximately 15% lighter - which is very important for the production of tiny houses on wheels with a weight limit of up to 3.5 tones.

Shou Sugi Ban wood siding

Recommended for its unique properties are the facade boards burnt using the Japanese Shou Sugi Ban technique. This is a quite time-consuming method that involves burning the boards with a torch, brushing off the carbonised layer and then rinsing with water. Once dry, the boards are covered with a layer of linseed oil and heated again. The boards prepared in this way are more resistant to weather, moisture, rot, as well as insects or fungi, maintaining an aesthetic appearance for many years.

Maintenance of a wood façade

A wood façade requires adequate protection and regular maintenance to stay in good condition over the long term. It is recommended that the maintenance of a wooden façade is carried out at regular intervals to effectively protect the wood from moisture, UV radiation and biodegradation. Depending on the location and intensity of external factors, as well as the chosen timber option, we will advise owners on how to take care of the long-term beauty of their wooden façades.

Sleeping in TH — on the mezzanine vs. on the ground floor

July 24, 2024

When deciding on a tiny house on wheels of about 15 sqm, our customers are faced with the choice of where to locate the sleeping area: on the mezzanine or on the ground floor. Creating a rest area on the mezzanine floor has its unique advantages, but also some disadvantages, which are worth considering at the stage of interior design. The basic pros and cons of placing a bed on the mezzanine and on the ground floor are presented in the following overview.

A bedroom on a mezzanine floor in TH

PROS

1. More space to use on the ground floor

The mezzanine allows you to use effectively the available living space in a tiny house. An additional few square meters of its floor creates a cozy bedroom. At the same time, it frees up ground floor space for kitchen and living room functions. In REDUKT houses, under the mezzanine level there are usually practical closets and bookcases, as well as a technical room, with access from the outside.

2. Privacy and coziness

A mezzanine can offer a greater sense of privacy, especially if the ground floor is a living space shared with the kitchen. Additionally, locating the bed in the higher part of the house creates a cozy atmosphere, conducive to relaxation and tranquility after a long day.

3. Views from the roof window

Sleeping on the mezzanine floor in REDUKT houses, you can look straight at the stars through the roof window. Waking up with a view of the rising sun or falling asleep under a starry sky is an extraordinary experience, adding to the charm of everyday tiny house life.

CONS

1. Limited mezzanine height

One of the main constraints of a mezzanine in a TH is the limited space from the bed level to the ceiling. In our REDUKT houses, the ceiling height from the mezzanine level ranges from about 90 to 140 cm, depending on the model and type of roof. The REDUKT PURA house has a lower mezzanine level which allows you to read or even work on it comfortably. The mezzanine above the bathroom - a typical solution in THOW - doesn't give such comfort. A variety of solutions in different house models allow us to choose the most convenient option.

2. Higher temperature on the mezzanine level

Warm air naturally rises upward, which means that on the mezzanine floor you may experience a slightly higher temperature than on the ground floor. During the warm months of the year, thermal comfort throughout the interior is maintained by air conditioning and proper placement of windows, including roof windows with blinds.

3. Accessibility

To get to the mezzanine in REDUKT houses, it is necessary to use a ladder or stairs, which in some situations can be less convenient than climbing onto a bed located on the ground floor. Although sometimes limiting easy access upstairs for uninvited guests can be a plus of sleeping on a mezzanine ;)

Bedroom on level 0 in ground floor TH

PROS

1. Easy access to every zone - including the sleeping area

Locating the bedroom on the ground floor eliminates the need to climb a ladder or stairs to the bedroom. The simple one-level interior layout also allows children or the elderly to move around the house without any problems.

2. Spaciousness and comfort of the sleeping place

A ground floor bedroom usually offers more overhead space and better air circulation than when the bed is located on a mezzanine. Lovers of comfortable sleeping conditions and long lazy mornings in the sheets will appreciate the bed on trouble-free level 0.

3. Outdoor views through large windows

The ability to enjoy the scenery outside directly from the bed is an added benefit of having the bed on the ground floor. Large windows adjacent to the bed guarantee beautiful views of the surrounding nature, adding to the charm of the interior and creating a sense of closeness to nature.

CONS

1. Less available free living space

A bedroom on the ground floor takes up space that could be used for other purposes. In tiny houses, any extra living space is valuable, so skipping mezzanine space can limit interior design possibilities.

2. Limited privacy in the sleeping area

A ground-floor bedroom can seem less comfortable in terms of privacy, especially when there are more people in the house. Then it is more challenging to create an intimate space, free from distractions, yet the openness of the interior can also be a kind of advantage.

3. Less flexibility in the space arrangement

When deciding on a ground floor bedroom, the interior layout becomes less flexible. It is more difficult to adjust the one-level space to meet changing needs, which can be important in the long-term use of a tiny house.

In conclusion, the choice between locating the sleeping area on a mezzanine or on the ground floor in a trailer house depends on individual needs and preferences. The mezzanine offers you more space on the ground floor and a cozy atmosphere, but comes with some difficulties. A ground-floor bedroom, on the other hand, provides easy access and greater comfort with beautiful views right from the pillow, at the cost of less privacy and limited living space. Each solution has its pros and cons, which are worth considering carefully before choosing solutions for your tiny house on wheels.

5 steps to your REDUKT house

July 10, 2024

Tiny house is not only a compact apartment, but also a way of life that combines functionality with mobility and sustainable development. A small trailer house saves space and costs, provides freedom and flexibility. As an experienced manufacturer of tiny houses on wheels in Poland, we present a short guide for those who want to start their adventure with REDUKT mobile houses.

5 steps to your REDUKT house — Mobile house REDUKT-01. Photo: VOX

Step 1: Planning

The first step is to determine your needs and preferences, as well as the purpose of the house. Will the tiny house serve as a permanent place of residence or as a mobile recreational space? Or maybe as a micro hotel located on a picturesque plot away from the hustle and bustle of the city? Choosing the right trailer and the size of the house will be crucial for further design decisions.

Step 2: Design

At this stage, we work with the client to select the most appropriate model from our basic offer or to create an individual tiny house project tailored to his needs. We consider the layout of rooms, the use of space, interior finishing elements and technical aspects such as electrical and plumbing installations. If the house is to be located on a plot without access to utilities, we also decide which off-grid systems will most effectively support the autonomous functioning of the house.

Step 3: Customization

Each customer can choose additional individual options, such as custom-made furniture or details and accessories, e.g. blinds and sofa cushions. We also offer the installation of systems for thermal comfort, security and remote control, which will make the tiny house perfectly suited to the needs of users.

Step 4: Construction

Once the design is approved, we begin building the tiny house. We use high-quality, certified building materials and pay attention to every detail to ensure the solidity of the structure and the aesthetics of the home's interior. Our tiny houses are designed to be energy efficient and have a low environmental impact.

Step 5: Operation and maintenance

After the construction is completed, we deliver to our clients a fully equipped, ready-to-move-in tiny house, along with instructions for the house and the systems and devices installed in it. We also provide after-sales support and maintenance advices so that customers can enjoy their mobile homes for years.

Begining of an adventure with tiny houses is not only an investment in a modern approach to housing, but also an expression of individuality or lifestyle. Thanks to our many years of experience in the industry and commitment to designing and building high-quality tiny houses on wheels, we provide our clients with functional and aesthetic houses, as well as support at every stage of turning their dreams of a mobile and sustainable lifestyle into a reality.

We invite you to contact us directly to begin your way to a REDUKT house :)

Discover our houses. REDUKT ECHO

June 26, 2024

We're excited to introduce another mobile home from our basic offer: REDUKT ECHO tiny house. This house has a simple, modern shape with a gable roof and it's designed to stay in constant interaction with the residents and the environment. We've created several zones in it, so everyone can find their own space and privacy. What makes this model unique?

The interior of the REDUKT ECHO house

One of the cool things about the REDUKT ECHO house is that it's divided into four "rooms" inside:

the luminous and spacious living room and kitchenette,
a second separate room under the mezzanine,
a bathroom with a shower, cabinet and sink, as well as a toilet,
a mezzanine with a desk - a great quiet place to work or relax.

Interior of REDUKT ECHO tiny house on wheels — Interior of REDUKT ECHO mobile home. Photo: REDUKT

REDUKT ECHO house has two rooms, a kitchen, bathroom, and mezzanine, all of which add up to 14 sqm.

The living room is the biggest space in the house. It's merged with a kitchenette opposite the front door. The kitchen is fully furnished with a fridge, a sink and a cooktop. The living space is designed for comfort and convenience: with a big sofa, storage and a bookcase. Behind the bookcase is another room for those who need their separate space exclusively.

This space can be arranged according to your needs, for an additional bedroom, work area or relaxation space. It has two bookcases with shelves and a closet in an alcove.

Once you've made it up the stairs, you'll find yourself on a mezzanine. If you place a full-size mattress there, you regain a few square meters of usable space at ground zero without sacrificing full sleeping comfort. And if you need your own corner with a work desk, it's there too :)

Tech side of the house

The house is heated with infrared floor foils and a wood-burning stove for a cozy interior climate and all-year use. You can also equip the house with an air conditioning with a heating function. The wooden structure of the house is responsible for proper thermal insulation. It has a mineral wool filling and a highly vapor-permeable membrane, which makes the walls of the house "breathe."

This house is 6.60 m long, 2.55 m wide, and 3.95 m high (including the trailer). You can make the REDUKT ECHO house function autonomously by installing the off-grid package that includes a water tank of up to 100 l with a pump and a solar system with a battery and an inverter.

The interior design of the REDUKT ECHO is a great example of how to make the most of every square meter of the space in a mobile home with a small footprint.

Glamping in a tiny house

June 19, 2024

Tent vacations in the woods or at a campground are usually seen as roughing it. But you don't have to give up the comforts of a hotel to enjoy the great outdoors. A new trend called glamping or exclusive camping is catching on in Poland and Europe.

Luxury camping

Glamping lets you enjoy the outdoors while still having all the comforts of home. It includes luxury tents with extra gear, yurts and cabins on wheels.

Wooden mobile houses are a great acommodation for glamping because they can be placed in locations that are hard to get to and that aren't obvious.

REDUKT houses as micro hotels in the forest

REDUKT offers micro hotels in the wilderness. REDUKT tiny houses on trailers can be parked on beautiful plots of land and don't require a building permit. They're small but have everything you need for comfortable stays: a living area with a fully equipped kitchen, a rest zone with sleeping place for 2-6 people and a bathroom with shower, as well as air conditioning or a wood stove. They can also be equipped with off-grid systems and appliances that let you run them on plots without access to utilities, like solar panels and a water tank. Our REDUKT houses are great for both private and business use. We build them from natural, certified materials, so they’re environment- and resident-friendly homes.

Glamping in houses on wheels

Companies like Raus, Bento Houses and Unyoked are gaining a lot of followers for stays in micro apartments that are away from the hustle and bustle of cities. Getaway Houses and Raus are developing a true network of cabin rentals that are immersed in green surroundings. They are attracting more and more guests who want to reconnect with nature and at the same time relax in comfort and ease.

We need to spend more time close to nature, with limited access to the outside world. We spend our days in crowded cities, dividing our attention between social media and reality. It's only when we taste the tranquility that reconnecting with nature brings that we realize this very need.

Glamping is one way to solve this problem.

If you're looking for a way to relax and escape the city, you might want to check out our cabins at @bento_houses or @raus.life.

Tiny Houses on wheels - a simple retreat

June 12, 2024

We all know that spending time in nature is good for our health and well-being. But in a city with few green spaces, it's easy to feel disconnected from nature, both physically and mentally.

Studies show that being close to nature has a positive effect on memory, cognitive flexibility, and the ability to focus. Just 15 minutes in the green space raises creativity levels, lowers stress levels, and improves mood.

If you’re interested in learning more about the science behind this, we suggest checking out the article:

Our customers have found a way to take care of themselves. The mobile homes let them spend more time outside and get closer to nature while still being able to relax at home. They fell in love with the beautiful plots of land where they put up their houses on wheels. By equipping the houses with a partial or complete off-grid package, they could choose almost any place they wanted, even in hard-to-reach areas and plots without utility connections.

Ski slope in the Austrian Alps, a green hill overlooking a mountain range near Vienna, or the charming Polish Masuria. These are just a few of the incredible places where our customers have found their perfect retreat. Our mobile homes are a turning point in their lives, helping them to return to a natural rhythm and harmony of body and mind.

REDUKT tiny houses on wheels are designed to blend in with nature, fitting quietly into their surroundings.

Where would you like to park your home on wheels?

House on the road – a few words about the formalities

May 29, 2024

The mobility of a house on a trailer is undoubtedly one of the advantages of a micro house, thanks to which people who value freedom of choice and change of plans decide to buy it. Traveling with a house on wheels – how does it actually look? What requirements must a house meet in order to be able to move around with it?

To legally drive a mobile home on roads, we must meet several important conditions.

Traveling with mobile REDUKT tiny house on wheels — Traveling with the prototype of a mobile house REDUKT-01. Photo: REDUKT

Requirements, documents, vehicle registration

Our REDUKT houses are built on trailers that meet the requirements and have European approval up to 3.5 tons. This means that the trailer has its own approval, and the house is formally a load. To be allowed to travel on public roads, a trailer must have appropriate documents. The CoC document, i.e. the certificate of conformity from the registration office, declares that the vehicle is of an approved type. Refers to a specific chassis number and contains all technical features and vehicle data such as weight and dimensions. These data must meet certain standards for approval in the EU: the weight of the load with the trailer cannot exceed 3.5 tons, and the maximum permissible dimensions of the load are 2.55 m in width and 4 m in height (including the trailer). To move on public roads, it is of course necessary to register the trailer.

“Cargo package”

REDUKT houses can be detached from the trailer. We call this functionality the "cargo package" and it consists of steel reinforcements in the floor enabling the house to be lifted, an approved connection of the cargo (house) to the trailer during transport, and special elements securing the house to the trailer when parked.

Traveling on public roads

Traveling with a house on wheels also requires specific permissions, skills and security measures. The driver must have a driving license B+E category, skills enabling him to drive a combination of vehicles (car and trailer with load) with a GVW exceeding 3.5 tons, and appropriate liability insurance. The car must also be able to tow a trailer weighing 3.5 tons (which is indicated in the registration certificate). In practice, this possibility is available to selected off-road vehicles, pick-ups and delivery vans.

Traveling with a mobile home in practice

Before setting off on a trip, it is necessary to secure moving elements inside the house that could cause damage to furniture and equipment, e.g. shower doors or pull-out drawers and cabinet fronts.

If you plan to travel with your home, it is necessary to design and equip it appropriately. The safety of the structure during movement is influenced by, among others: window surface protection and optimal balance. It is worth considering installing elements of an off-grid package in a house intended for location changes. Using a separating toilet or water tank will significantly facilitate the functioning of your home when you want to change your place of living.

With a properly prepared mobile home, you can make your dreams come true and enjoy an unprecedented sense of freedom :)

6 advantages of tiny houses on wheels

May 22, 2024

Here are six reasons why REDUKT tiny houses on wheels are a great option for anyone looking for flexibility and the ability to make quick changes. They can be used in a variety of ways, including as a year-round home or a cabin for weekend trips out of town, a mobile office or studio for working in the garden, a micro-hotel or house for rent. There are many possibilities, as are the advantages of choosing a tiny house on wheels.

6 advantages of REDUKT tiny houses on wheels

We’ve listed a few examples below:

REDUCTION OF DECISION-MAKING STRESS / Mobility = freedom of choice

Houses on wheels are mobile - built on an approved trailer. If you need to, you can decide where they'll stand. You can try different locations and different ways to meet your needs. Without the stress of making some irrevocable decision for life. This gives you an unprecedented sense of lightness and speeds up the decision-realization process, which is difficult when buying a traditional property, whether to live on your own or for investment.

REDUCTION OF CONSTRUCTION COSTS / Smaller house = lower construction costs

A smaller area of the house means lower costs of materials for its construction. We design every m2 thoughtfully, and you can really live in it permanently too! And often with the most beautiful view :-) There's no risk of additional costs associated with protracted construction, increases in the price of materials or the cost of contractors – you already know the price when you order! REDUKT houses are built in our workshop from start to finish. Once they're ready, we deliver them to you. You don't even need to have your own plot of land to put up a small trailer house - you can put it up on a rented plot!

REDUCTION OF MAINTENANCE COSTS / Smaller home space = lower maintenance costs

Limiting living space to a dozen square meters also means lowering maintenance costs. Such a house is much less energy-intensive and easier to heat in winter. Our houses for year-round living comfort can be equipped with air conditioning with heating function or wood- or pellet-fired stoves. A small house generates smaller bills and expenses for additional equipment.

REDUCTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT / Nature-friendly houses = less environmental impact

REDUCT tiny houses are eco-friendly houses that are friendly to nature. We use natural and certified materials for construction. The structure and facade of REDUKT houses are made of wood, the roof is usually made of trapezoidal sheet metal, aluminum window and door frames and the insulation is made of wood fiber, sheep's wool, or mineral wool. Custom furniture is made from poplar plywood. Diffusion-open walls create a healthy microclimate inside for its occupants (more about "breathing" walls of REDUKT houses here). They can also be equipped with autonomous off-grid systems when there is no access to utilities on the plot: water, electricity, sewerage. Our integrated photovoltaic systems with batteries will provide the cleanest renewable electricity for the householders. Separation toilets and water tanks will enable comfortable use of the bathroom and kitchen but at the same time keeping you conscious about the water usage :)

REDUCTION OF NEEDS / Minimalist home = simpler life

REDUKT tiny houses are our interpretation of modern small living spaces that encourage minimalist living and simplicity. The essence for living, relaxing, and working. The fewer stimuli around you, the easier it is to prioritize what’s really important and to make decisions consciously. And the comfort of REDUKT houses is really easy to appreciate. Despite their compact size, our houses are fully functional and ready for year-round use in a simple way. They come with a comfortable living area, sleeping space for 2-4 people, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

REDUCTION OF WASTED TIME / Ordering prefabricated house = saving time

When you order a house from REDUKT, you're buying a complete solution. You get a house that's ready to move in. You don't have to do any construction on the plot, and you don't have to worry about all the paperwork that comes with traditional houses. But you also don't have to furnish and equip. The refrigerator, taps, sinks, sofa cushions, and blinds are all included in the house. And cleaning such a small house is a true time saver!

Which of the advantages of tiny houses on wheels do you find most appealing?

Kitchen - the heart of a tiny house

May 15, 2024

The living space in our REDUKT mobile houses is made up of two main areas: the living area and the kitchen.

This layout makes it easy for residents to enjoy the simple pleasures of daily life. Wake up to the smell of your favorite freshly brewed coffee, cook dinner in the kitchen, and dine with a view of nature. Simple and unhurried.

Functional kitchen designs

With thoughtful kitchen designs, all the essentials are always within easy reach. We also customize interior designs and equipment to individual customer preferences to make sure you're completely comfortable.

Kitchen equipment

We build the small houses on wheels in our workshop and deliver them to customers in a state ready for living with full equipment.

The kitchen elements in REDUKT houses are:

an induction hob or a gas stove (you can choose between them depending on the version of the house: on-grid or off-grid),
single compartment built-in refrigerator,
a big sink with a tap,
a laminate countertop and an anti-splash protective panel,
LED line countertop lighting under the upper cabinets,
a drawer under the sink for segregation bins,
shelves and drawers in the lower and upper cabinets.

Our kitchens are ventilated, and in on-grid houses, we also install mechanical kitchen exhausts.

Here are some examples of kitchens in our tiny houses on trailers:

Ideas for storing things in TH

May 08, 2024

A small living space is a challenge for architects, designers, and homebuyers alike. Every square meter counts, especially when it comes to the amount of space to store things. We design our minimalist trailer houses for a simpler life, proving that you don't need much to live comfortably. Check out what kind of special furniture and interior design solutions we applied to the personalized REDUKT PURA model from our basic offer.

Mobile multifunctional furniture

The heart of this house is the living room, which is shared with the fully equipped kitchen. This is where you can enjoy the smell of freshly brewed coffee in the morning and the beautiful views outside the wide window. In the afternoons, you can spend time together with your loved ones cooking, sharing food or playing board games at the fold-out table. Mobile multifunctional furniture works perfect in this space.

The sofa bed is a great piece of furniture that serves not only as additional sleeping space, but also as a capacious pull-out drawer for clothes, shoes, towels, and linens. The steps leading to the mezzanine are also storage compartments: a drawer in the lower step and three boxes opening from the front, in which you can store a suitcase and a hiking backpack.

There's another cabinet hidden above the sofa in an alcove under the mezzanine. It's a great place to store board games, books, electronic devices and even a blanket.

In the rest area, on the mezzanine, you will find a full-size mattress, as well as shelves for books, candles and small personal items. Everything you need for a good night's rest is within your reach – even the stars at the night sky, which you can admire through the roof window.

Customized furnishing and interior designs

We customize the interiors of our mobile homes to meet the needs of our clients.

In the tiny, custom-designed bathroom, we placed shelves for essential toiletries behind a rimless, hanging toilet.

A large table is a waste of usable space in the home? For this house model we designed a foldable table that you can adjust to fit your needs. And after dinner... stuck it between the sofa and the kitchen.

Office on wheels in the middle of the forest

April 10, 2024

Leisure and work are becoming increasingly intertwined. Our customers have the freedom to work remotely from their tiny houses on wheels, wherever they choose. The living space in our houses on wheels invites you to live, relax, and work with ease. You can focus on tasks away from the hustle and bustle of the city, be inspired by nature, and gain a new perspective. And in the meantime, enjoy the proximity of the forest or learn to do nothing :)

Workcation - to work from anywhere

Mobile houses for rent are an increasingly popular option for workcations in the middle of the forest. Workcation is a new trend in Europe that allows remote work from anywhere, combining travel, sightseeing, or being in nature with work. Enjoy active days without taking a vacation. Performing work duties in a tiny house located in the woods, by a lake, or right by the beach is becoming increasingly popular for those seeking to regain their balance.

Office with a sea view

Feeling like a week-long vacation in the middle of the year is out of reach? Imagine being on the beach or exploring forest trails by bicycle just minutes after finishing work.

Houses on wheels function as a mobile office for both rental and personal use, allowing you to choose and change your workspace. And when you tire of the view outside your window, you can easily swap it for a new one :)

Work space at REDUKT tiny houses

The tiny houses’ interiors are divided into three zones: a living area, a lounge area, and a creative work area.

The REDUKT COUNTRY house model includes a mobile long table that can be arranged in various configurations, allowing for flexibility in the workspace. The family of REDUKT PURA houses features a folding table and a folding work desk located below the window. The standard version of the REDUKT ONE model includes a mobile furniture module with a desk that can be stored under the mezzanine when not in use.

Additionally, REDUKT has completed projects that involve custom furniture solutions tailored to the specific needs of clients, such as a wall-folding top or a desk combined with a small closet. This custom furniture adds a unique character to the interiors of REDUKT houses, providing mobile spaces that allow for focus on what is important.

Custom-made furniture in REDUKT houses

March 20, 2024

Before beginning the interior design process for a mobile home, we discuss our clients' furniture and furnishing preferences and storage needs. We create custom designs and offer unique interior solutions that include multifunctional mobile furniture and multi-purpose use of space depending on the time of day.

Each REDUKT tiny house has a unique feature that sets it apart from the rest. In our houses, customers can find a variety of special furniture options, including a closet, a mobile table, a folding table on the wall, a coat rack combined with a work surface, a closet hidden under a mezzanine, and a folding table on wheels, among others.

Storage furniture

Living in a small space presents the challenge of limiting possessions, but clever management can maximize storage. Our homes utilize solutions such as drawers hidden under steps, a closet located under the mezzanine, or a capacious closet with shelves next to the front door.

Work desks

In certain models of the PURA collection, the workspace is a foldable top with an easy-to-use wall-mounting system. With just two movements, you can create a peaceful corner to work in front of a window with a stunning view. As a repeatable solution, another PURA house showcased a small desk located next to the front door, combined with a dressing table – an all-in-one piece: on one side, a special shoe compartment and a practical coat rack, and on the other, a countertop with a shelf for work.

Tables, coffee tables, countertops

In tiny houses, a common element of the living and kitchen area is often a table. By utilizing the option to vertically fold the table against the wall, valuable space can be saved without sacrificing the ability to comfortably seat four people for breakfast with hot coffee.

Mobile furniture on wheels

For added comfort and convenience in daily use, we also provide mobile furniture options, such as tables or cabinets on wheels. These solutions are particularly effective when dealing with larger pieces of furniture, as adding casters or wheels makes them much easier to move.

Foldable furniture

When hosting guests overnight or entertaining a larger group, it's important to have clever interior solutions such as additional tables or sleeping arrangements. Folding sofas and split-top tables are great options for occasional use and can help maximize space in smaller living areas.

< Can the REDUKT house be located on a plot without utilities?

Yes, the REDUKT house can be completely autonomous, allowing it to be used on a plot without access to utilities.It is important to determine the extent to which you intend to use utilities and resources, as well as what utilities are available on the plot, so that we can choose the optimal equipment for the house. We offer a full off-grid home package.

< What is an off-grid house and what is it equipped with?

An off-grid house enables you to operate independently of standard utilities such as electricity, water, and sewage. The self-sufficient package comprises a photovoltaic panel system that generates and stores electricity, a dry separation toilet, a water management system consisting of a tank, water pump, and heater, and a heating system that includes a wood-burning stove, gas-powered radiators, and infrared floor films.

< Can I travel with a tiny house on wheels?

Our houses are built on trailers that comply with the traffic laws of EU countries. To move freely on the roads, you must register the trailer, the maximum weight of the house up to 3.5 tons, and its width up to 2.5m. Additionally, a B+E driving license is required.

< How to transport a prefabricated house to the target location?

We offer transportation services for your house to your desired destination. In some cases, the final stretch of the transportation process may require the use of a tractor. However it is important to address any concerns regarding accessibility beforehand, especially in cases where the house is located in a remote or difficult-to-reach area.
Larger and heavier houses can be transported on a special low-deck truck.

< What is the standard process of ordering a house at REDUKT?

At the beginning, we discuss your needs, budget, and inspiration. At this stage, we decide whether to use our ready-made designs or design a house specifically for you as an individual project. The design stage takes an additional two months and incurs an additional fee. For ready-made projects, such as PURA or COUNTRY house, we provide cost estimates based on the selected equipment, production, and payment schedules. Our team, along with external specialists, will build your tiny house over the next few weeks. You are welcome to visit us during the construction process to review the established stages of the work. Once the house is completed, it will undergo all necessary inspections. Then you will make a final acceptance (in a workshop or remotely/on-line) and decide whether you would like to pick it up yourself or have it delivered by a trusted transportation company. Your house will be ready for delivery to your address after a period of 12 weeks.

< Is it possible to design the house on individual request?

Yes. Our house designs can be customized to meet the specific needs and preferences of our clients. Additionally, we offer custom houses upon request. Please contact us for further details.

The cost of the house is determined by several factors, including the selected model and design personalization, the materials and equipment used, and transportation and delivery expenses. Each case is evaluated individually.

< How long after the decision can I move into my own house on wheels?

Typically, it takes around three months to construct a REDUKT tiny house. Designing a house from scratch to the client's individual preferences adds an additional ca. two months. Once construction is complete, the house arrives on your plot fully equipped and ready to move in.

< Are REDUKT houses suitable for use all year round?

Yes. REDUKT houses are equipped with a heat source selected based on the availability of utilities on the plot, such as a wood-burning stove, wall-mounted gas or electric radiators, or air conditioning. Additionally, the water system is equipped with anti-freeze heating cables.
