Tacoma Tiny Home Inspiration: 10 Modern Tiny House Designs We Love - Tacoma, WA

We are pretty excited about the passing of the new rules allowing every single family home in Tacoma to be able to build an attached (ADU) or detached (DADU) additional dwelling unit without any special zoning permitting. If you haven’t read about the changes yet you can read our full blog post about the new ADU & DADU rules here. What does that mean in real life though? Well, that means Wilder can build you a tiny home, tiny house or cottage house without needing to go through the endless hoops that used to be required to build one just a few months ago.

Tacoma's New Juice Shop: Gather Juice Co - Tacoma, WA

Gather Juice Co just opened a few blocks from our shop, and we wanted to take a minute and welcome them to the neighborhood. They’re currently serving cold pressed juices and smoothies made right here in Tacoma, and plan to expand the menu in coming weeks with Acai bowls, salads and lots more healthy options. If you haven’t already popped in and checked out the beautiful space, we highly recommend it!

The Dunn's Deck Project in Ruston - Ruston, WA

We first met the Dunn’s in the summer of 2018 when we built them a new modern cedar fence to enclose their property and give some privacy to the wide open back yard. The horizontal fence project turned out great and they said they would be calling us again in the future.

The Sabado's Deck Project in Tacoma - Tacoma, WA

The Sabado’s project was a custom deck build we completed in the spring of 2018 in Tacoma’s Proctor District. We originally met with the Sabado’s in 2017 for our first consultation. They explained what they wanted out of the space and they provided us with a drawing that a family member had drafted up for them (see photo below).

Modern Outdoor Design in Tacoma - Tacoma, WA

I worked in the landscape construction business in Seattle for many years. Towards the end of my time up there, it seemed like I was working on a seemingly endless stream of new modern homes building a variety modern decks, patios, walls and fences to match. Now I get it some people hate it, some people love it, but for me I've always really enjoyed modern design. It has clean lines that create gorgeous symmetry, it maximizes space making things more sustainable, and it incorporates utility beautifully in a way that others styles fail.
