Big Tiny
Founded in March 2017, Big Tiny is the first company in Singapore to integrate the concept of “tiny houses” with eco-tourism. “Tiny houses” are part of an international trend of simplifying lives by reducing the size, and therefore the resource consumption, of homes without sacrificing quality of life. Currently there are no definite measurements that qualifies a tiny house – however any residential structure under 46sqm is generally accepted to be a “tiny house”.
Big Tiny takes this one step further by placing its beautifully designed compact homes on wheels in spectacular rural settings – amplifying the benefits of the “tiny house” movement by pairing the advantages of a thoughtfully efficient abode with the recharging potential of an intimate connection with Mother Nature.
The brainchild of three Singaporean entrepreneurs, Big Tiny stems from a desire to 1) offer the city dweller a chance to experience the perfect escape from a hectic, digitally-laden lifestyle; and 2) enable anyone to have a part in this new way of living.
