Tight Spaces

By Lincoln Barbour

The Tiny House project I photographed for Jessica Helgerson Interior Design provided some interesting spaces to shoot. At only 540sq ft, it was one of the smallest houses I’ve ever photographed. This shot of the bathroom always makes me smile. There’s maybe a half an inch of clearence on either side of that tub and getting it in was quite a feat of engineering. The results there are fantastic and this photo makes me want to jump in, watch the sun go down over the farm, and relax with a nice glass of Pinot Noir.
