Living smaller is not only a trend, but also a sustainable choice
The traditional construction sector is responsible for around 5 percent of annual CO2 emissions worldwide. This obviously has to change and the solution for sustainability is simple and obvious. Until two hundred years ago, the construction of homes was largely circular and biobased and we will have to use technologies that were used at that time again, of course in a modernized way.
Over the past 25 years we’ve created more than 5,000 new homes and 1.5 million sq ft of workspace in over 60 regeneration projects. Have a look at the short film below to learn more about how we’ve achieved this and what drives us.

Let's discover why a compact living space offers so many advantages
1. Sustainability and Energy Efficiency
A smaller home uses less energy . Less space means less heating, less cooling and less electricity consumption.
The Tiny Villa , a compact prefab home from Compact Housing , is an excellent example of this. With a surface area of 50 m² and a covered LED-lit outdoor area of approximately 10 m², it offers all the comfort you need.
2. Conscious Living and Decluttering
Living smaller forces you to consume more consciously . You simply have less space for unnecessary stuff.
Marie Kondo , the Japanese tidying guru, teaches us to ask, “Does it spark joy?” Before you keep something, think about whether it makes you happy. That way, you’ll create a home full of valuable items that you’ll cherish.
3. Affordability and Luxury
A compact home doesn’t have to compromise on comfort and luxury . For example, take a look at the MHL Wellness Lodge, which is built to last and equipped with all modern conveniences.
Think triple glazing, electric underfloor heating, a complete kitchen and a bathroom with sauna and walk-in shower. Everything you need, within reach.
4. Prefab Houses and Tiny Houses
Prefab houses, such as the Scandi 4 , are quick to build and fully equipped for comfortable living.
These compact homes are not only sustainable, but also affordable . They fit perfectly with a conscious lifestyle.
In short, living smaller is not only a space saver, but also a step towards a more sustainable and conscious life. Be inspired by Marie Kondo and create a harmonious, energy.
