Tend Building’s Tiny Drop is a Teardrop Trailer and a Tiny House on Wheels

Tend Building is a small local business in New York

Tend Building, a quaint New York-based business, crafts artistic structures with a firm commitment to eco-friendly materials. Their ethos? Design with a purpose to inspire.

Architend isn't just an architecture firm; it's a melting pot of community design, and research and development, all dedicated to the forefront of regenerative design.

In a collaborative effort, they've woven their expertise into a charming concept that's bound to evoke strong feelings – you'll either fall in love or be left craving more.

Enter The Tiny Drop: a fusion of a teardrop trailer and a tiny house.

It raises the question – has science pushed the boundaries too far, focusing more on the possibility rather than the prudence? The outcome is a 150-square-foot, 8,000-pound hybrid that challenges conventional design norms.

The Tiny Drop is a prime example of creativity

For those who appreciate innovation, the Tiny Drop is a testament to how advanced home sealing technology, a state-of-the-art fresh air system, and an efficient water heater can compensate for the compact space.

The interior is where the Tiny Drop truly shines. Utilizing recycled materials from Tend Building and Architend, the space exudes a warm, homely vibe that's instantly welcoming.

The kitchen, while modest, is fully functional with a sink and a two-burner stove, complemented by ample countertop space and a convenient desk area.

The bathroom is the home's other main room, equipped with an eco-friendly composting toilet and a practical water basin.

Ascending the ladder reveals the cozy bedroom loft, bathed in natural light from the dual skylights above.

The Tiny Drop stands as a bold statement in design, proving that creativity can flourish within the smallest of footprints. It may not cater to all, but its audacious approach to tiny living is undeniably admirable.
