With all the concerns and fears about national security you may think this is a trivial topic to even bring up. But anyway I've been watching some tv shows about tiny houses. And I noticed the two story ones seem kind of big for a tiny house. So wondering if anyone thinks they should be limited to one floor (story) to be classified as a tiny house.
This would also mean banning lofts. And possibly even banning attics as space for heating, cooling and ventilation. Because those attics can make the tiny house look so huge. Put those utilities lower.
Now I realize that even a one story tiny house can look big because of design features to make it look bigger on the inside and maybe even from the outside too. And you get a maximum of 250 square feet or so to work with as a tiny house. Btw those shows tend to have cute women in shorts helping to construct or remodel tiny houses. Which is fine with me and sorry no pics of those women just a general reference article -

Oh, edit: You could make the argument that the 250 or so square feet all put on one floor could make the single story tiny house look too big. Well that would be around 15.8 by 15.8 feet. That too big for a single story tiny house? Well I may need to look at some pics of those myself to judge. I'll get on it. And some conventions allow for up to 300 sq ft for a tiny house?
