A DIY recipe for success: Build a Tiny Home with Avrame’s SOLO+

Tiny houses have become incredibly popular worldwide for a good reason – they offer a simpler, more affordable lifestyle that frees you from financial burdens and helps you downsize your life. For many, owning a tiny home means freedom. At Avrame, we are making it easier for you to make that dream a reality with our SOLO+ series, designed to address the challenges of the tiny home market.

Why SOLO+ stands out

If you’ve looked into tiny house options, you’ve probably noticed that your choices are often limited. Many companies offer great tiny homes, but they may only serve specific regions, or their models are too large, too expensive, or simply don’t meet tiny house regulations. This is where Avrame’s SOLO+ series comes in, designed to be the most functional, affordable, and versatile solution on the market. Developed in collaboration with an MIT professor and her team, the SOLO+ series is an upgrade from our original SOLO series A-frame cabins. The original SOLO series offered a minimalist aesthetic but lacked functionality. By changing the roof pitch by just 3 degrees, a functional loft space was created. This opened up various living and working scenarios. The ideal A-frame tiny house was born! The SOLO+ series combines three popular concepts: A-frame simplicity, DIY practicality, and the minimalistic lifestyle.

A house recipe for everyone

So, how does it work? We like to call our SOLO+ DIY instructions a “house recipe.” Much like cooking, if you have the right instructions, the right ingredients, and the right tools, you can make something amazing – even if you’re not a professional.

Detailed shopping lists, cut lists, and step-by-step instructions ensure a smooth building process. Whether you’re a seasoned DIYer or someone who has never built anything before, this is the easiest and most affordable way to build your tiny house.

Imagine this: You’re sitting on the porch of your newly built tiny home with your favorite coffee mug in hand. The scent of freshly cut wood lingers in the air. The stress of building is behind you, and all that remains is a bright future. It’s your home, your project, and your success. You’re no longer watching tiny house videos, dreaming of change – you’ve made it happen.

What's included in the SOLO+ plan set?

The complete package includes:

A PDF document with step-by-step instructions (over 100 pages) for building your SOLO+ tiny house.
Reference drawings (in PDF format), including views, plans, cross-sections, elevations, and construction details.
List of materials, including the cut list with drawings that show how to cut the parts.
Floor plans in DWG format (AutoCAD) for placing the house on your plot plan, obtaining a construction permit (if necessary), and planning the technical services.
3D model of the house in SKP format (SketchUp), used for designing the interior and exterior of the house.

By sourcing the materials locally, you’ll save on shipping costs, avoid customs duties, and help support your local economy as well.

The best part? You can start making immediate progress without having to wait for the house kit to be produced and delivered.

Build it your way

You have full creative freedom with the finishing touches. Do you want to use a specific type of wood for the interior? Would you prefer a custom finish for the exterior? It’s your home, and you can make it your own.

And if you’re feeling adventurous, you can modify the project to suit your specific needs or even, as we joke, burn it down if you like – it’s your house, after all!
