AN INNOVATIVE couple have bought a tractor trailer and turned it into a stunning tiny home.<\/p>\n
A recent video showed how they transformed the old vehicle into a "slice of paradise" in France. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
P.H and Bea embarked in the challenging project after deciding to change their lives and become more "environmentally conscious".<\/p>\n
On the video posted on YouTube, the cottage appeared sitting on a spectacular 100 hectare of organic farm.<\/p>\n
The couple showed off their DIY home and claimed to be made of natural materials. <\/p>\n
Farmer P.H. said: "We had a lot of the materials and the place to build it, so we just went for it.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"We tried to have it as natural as possible with as many reclaimed local materials as we could. Just in line with our life values."<\/p>\n
The tiny house is only eight metres long and five metres wide.<\/p>\n
But despite its reduced size, it boasts tall walls and a wide living room with a huge piano.<\/p>\n
The creative duo took the ceilings from an old church, a 300-year-old floor from a tail factory.<\/p>\n
