Attracted to the Tiny House movement but not finding what you need in a house that you can pull with a truck? Building small and efficiently, while living comfortably in a space that fits your needs is the best choice you can make.
EkoBuilt’s original group of tiny house designs were originally conceptualized to work as secondary dwelling units, known variously as coach homes (our own local market in Ottawa, Canada), garden and laneway suites (Toronto, Kingston, etc.), and ADUs or Accessory Dwelling Units (in the United States).
When we first developed the designs it was also with a strong awareness of the new found passion and interest that many folks have for simply building and living small.
We continue to add more models, with a total of 13 tiny or coach house plans currently.
Our plans and kits are available to ship across North America, and if you’re keen to go off-grid or Net Zero, this is the best way to do it!

Our tiny house plans offer tremendous variety and flexibility for building your tiny house where it makes sense for you. Our homes are so cheap to run, it will be easy to run your tiny house off-grid or on a net metering system. Read about our mechanical systems.

Tiny House over a Garage

Tiny Home with a Basement

Sometimes a tiny home is best achieved with a little more space, and a basement is the way to go. We have a video tour of our Dandelion tiny floor plan modified to include a basement.
