Employees: two cafe workers
Two partners

TINY HOME DREAM part 2
What it means to own a shelter, a roof, a home.
A home is your room. A room you take full ownership of and full responsibility for. In exchange you get your own independence and a space to confine in and share an experience with whom and when you chose.
No matter how big or small, it serves that purpose alone. Independence and ownership. Ownership doesn’t have to be singular. Ownership can be in the form of a partnership or a percentage of equity, however, a shared owner will mean
deciding on what a fair shared responsibility will look like.
A meaningful home isn’t determined by space but the experience and therefore the aesthetic of your home is important.
A tiny home can serve that purpose for most people. A minimalistic approach to living is a realistic way in todays climate.
Home library, Garden and a Dining table
“If you want space, go outside”
Picture this: you invite everyone over to have a small bbq. Enjoying the sun with chairs in the garden. You serve the food at the dining table. You get the children to make a healthy juice with a juice maker and all ingredients that make up a refreshing detox drink.
Uno cards, jigsaw puzzles and 🫖☕️
