A Katikati family have started a small business which has big aspirations for tiny homes.
Gina Stevens has been the creative force behind Build Tiny Ltd, collaborating with brother-in-law Jason Airey and friend Steve Cave to bring her ideas to fruition.
The extended family have all pitched in to support the growing business, having designed and built two models, with a third on the way soon.
Stevens said with Tauranga found to be the most unaffordable region in the country, perhaps it was time to consider tiny house living as an alternative to traditional housing.
Tiny houses were unique because they were on large double axle trailers, she said.
