In a world where everything seems to be getting bigger and more complicated, these top tiny home accounts serve as a reminder that there is always another way to live. Tiny houses are all about the art of living minimally. However, it should be noted that minimalism doesn’t always mean sacrifice. It just means making room for what matters most to you.

While you may not ever find yourself in a tiny house yourself, these Instagram pages definitely will inspire you to live more intentionally or at least a little smaller.
