Baluchon created the Mogote, a loft-style tiny home on wheels that can sleep up to four people.

Baluchon is a France-based company that specializes in custom environmentally friendly tiny home production, which has recently become a trend in real estate. And because most of its homes sit at around 7,716 pounds, the builds can be towed by pickup trucks, four-by-fours, and vans, according to the company.

The frame of the Mogote trailer home is almost 20 feet long, firmly securing its "tiny home" status. But like most homes of all sizes, the interior is insulated, specifically with cotton, linen, and hemp along the floors and walls. This accomodates the wood fiber insulation in the ceiling and the ventilation system that Mogote included with the build.

The Mogote — and all of the company's builds — is also made of the same materials as any wood-frame non-mobile home, creating both sound and heat insulation for the tiny home, according to Baluchon. While there's no designated heater included in Mogote, a 1-kilowatt electric heater or a gas or wood burning stove can be used to warm the interior during a cold winter night.
