Windows and Tiny Homes

joRN1414

Almost every tiny home I have tried I have a problem with the windows being HUGE. The doors, at least, aren't bad with one tile or two tiles. But even the smaller windows are huge on the tiny homes. I don't know if it's because I used the tiny lot residence choice or what? When I made tiny homes before I was able to use a lot of the 4 pane windows and the smaller windows without issue.

Anyone else noticing this? Or am I just possibly doing something wrong?

Windows did not change sizes for me on the tiny home residential lot. Perhaps changing the wall height would help?

Windows did not change sizes for me either but it took longer than usual to find matching windows while trying to build a tiny home yesterday. I think the small room size combined with a lot of furniture makes 'larger' windows feel out of place. Nearly every window was next to a piece of furniture like a counter or a table so only the smallest windows seem to look good so close to the furniture, depending on the style of the house of course.
In other words their actual window size didn't change but the visual effect does. That's my personal impression at least. But perhaps changing the wall height as suggested by @Netzspannung might help.

I've been fiddling around with my tiny home, and so far I really love the way the windows from the Strangerville pack look.

The front door is from the University pack.




The back door is from the Tiny home pack.


This room can comfortably hold a full-size bed and a dresser.

Thanks for the window suggestion! That is such a cute home. I really need to use OS more.

I did try that. It ended up happening the first time by accident because I added a greenhouse with tall walls. It does make a little difference and lets more light into the home.

That may be it. I originally thought it was because I used the residence for the home. So, now we need tiny windows!!

The one thing that irks me is not being able to place windows and doors in the center of the wall, but I can probably see why. I guess that's the perfectionist side of me wanting things to look good.
