Bahay Kubo


Bahay kubo is the traditional house in the Philippines that is made of bamboo, coconut lumber and other light materials. When it comes to tiny house living, the Filipinos have already been doing it even before the Spanish came.

As a typhoon prone archipelago, it is not surprising that these homes are the norm because it is easy to repair and there are abundant building materials that anyone can use to fix their bahay kubo. And in a tropical country where daytime temperature can soar high, the porous structure allows air to circulate easily so there is no need for tight insulation. It is natural for the tiny house movement to grow in this country.
