Nordic & Spruce has crafted something special with the Weekender, a tiny home that embraces its transient nature rather than fighting it. This isn’t a house trying to be everything to everyone – it’s a thoughtfully designed escape pod that knows exactly what it wants to be. At 24 feet long and 241 square feet, the Weekender sits comfortably in the middle of Nordic & Spruce’s lineup, larger than their compact Overnighter but more nimble than the full-featured Homesteader. The double-axle trailer foundation provides stability while maintaining roadworthiness for those who crave mobility over permanence.
The exterior makes an immediate impression with its clean metal cladding available in sophisticated black or crisp white, complemented by warm wooden accents that soften the industrial edge. Generous glazing floods the interior with natural light, while optional skylights can transform the space into a sun-drenched retreat. The contrast between the sleek exterior and the organic interior materials creates visual interest without overwhelming the compact footprint. The interior finishes reflect Nordic & Spruce’s attention to material selection, offering bleached pine for those seeking Scandinavian minimalism or plywood for a more industrial aesthetic that complements the abundant natural light.
Designer: Nordic & Spruce
Step through the single-glazed door and the kitchen greets you immediately, featuring a practical half-kitchen setup with sink and induction cooktop. For those who take their culinary adventures seriously, upgrading to the full-size kitchen opens up possibilities for proper meal preparation and additional storage. The adjacent dining area adapts to your lifestyle – choose traditional table and chairs for formal meals or opt for the bench seating with integrated storage for a more casual, space-efficient approach. This flexible arrangement ensures the space works whether you’re hosting intimate dinners or simply need somewhere comfortable to work remotely.
The bedroom occupies one side of the layout with a comfortable double bed. However, the optional mezzanine bunk bed configuration shown in Nordic & Spruce’s photos demonstrates the design’s flexibility for families or groups. This elevated sleeping solution maximizes floor space while maintaining the cozy atmosphere essential to tiny home living. The bathroom, positioned opposite the bedroom, covers all the essentials with a shower, sink, and your choice of composting, flushing, or incinerating toilet systems. The small storage loft above provides additional space for linens and personal items without cluttering the main living areas.
What makes the Weekender particularly appealing is its honest pricing and customization options. Starting at $55,000, it offers an accessible entry point into tiny home ownership while providing room to grow through upgrades like appliances, a fireplace, or mini-split air conditioning. The ability to extend the length up to 34 feet means the design can evolve with changing needs, allowing owners to start small and expand as their requirements or budget permits. This scalability sets it apart from many tiny homes that offer limited modification potential.
The Weekender succeeds because it doesn’t pretend to be a permanent residence – it’s designed for the life you want to live on weekends and vacations, making every getaway feel intentional and well-designed. Both material choices create spaces that feel larger than their square footage suggests, while the single-floor layout ensures accessibility and ease of movement. This tiny home represents Nordic & Spruce’s understanding that sometimes the best homes are those that encourage you to explore beyond their walls.
