SF Chronicles

Mobile dwelling designer Christopher Deam of Tumbleweed, the Tiny House Company, founded by Jay Shafer, who builds and sells -- you guessed it -- little dwellings ranging in size from 65 to 372 square feet.

Kids build forts with blankets and chairs, carving out their own space inside their parents' home. The space inside those walls are as sacred as the boundaries of their very real rooms. It's their safe spot and they can control everything that happens inside it. Not to trivialize these homes in any way, but they remind me of those forts I used to build with my friends -- except these are for grownups.

The Tiny Houses don't require building permits because they're on wheels, so they can literally be placed in a backyard (yes, albeit a very large backyard). The Small Houses are more like real dwellings with a separate room and an option for a 1st floor bedroom.

The XS-House measures 65 square feet.

The Weebee comes in at 102 square feet.

San Francisco's Modern Cabana offers its very own modern rendition. These range from 120 to 300 square feet.
