TINYPLOT
Tiny homes, small-space living, and clever compact design.
From square footage to room layout and vertical storage, TinyPlot pairs free hands-on calculators with practical tiny-living and small-space design guides and a richly illustrated museum of compact dwellings and space-saving design. Measure up, plan your space, and live well in less.
Small-Space Tools & Calculators
Free planners for every stage of a small-space project — square footage, room layout, vertical storage, and container soil.
Square Footage Calculator
Total the floor area of one or more rooms in square feet and metres, with a wastage allowance for ordering flooring
Room Layout Planner
Check how much floor your furniture covers and whether enough open floor remains to move comfortably in a small room
Vertical Storage Calculator
See how many shelves fit on a wall and how much linear storage you gain by turning empty wall into space
Container Soil Calculator
Work out the potting soil your pots and planters need, in quarts, litres, and bags, for small-space gardening
Tiny Houses & Small-Space Design
Wander an immersive museum of the dwellings and design that make small living work — compact dwellings like tiny houses, yurts, container homes, and houseboats, space-saving design and furniture like Murphy beds, lofts, and modular pieces, and small-space gardens like container and vertical plots, each with its own gallery so you can trace the ideas and craft that connect them.
