Help share this legacy piece of the original tiny house movement.

For those who don’t know me, I’m Michael Janzen. From 2008 to 2019, I designed tiny houses inspired by the historic coastal towns of my Northern California upbringing—places like Mendocino, Redwood Valley, and Westport.

I am a maker, not a marketer. I focus on innovative designs and storytelling, not sales. That is why I look for symbiotic relationships with partners who have a knack for marketing. It allows us to build a productive connection where we both get to focus on what we do best.

I am returning to the tiny house design studio in 2026 with a new focus on modern aesthetics and wider footprints. But before I move forward, I am opening the “Archive” one last time.

If you have an audience that loves small spaces, DIY building, or architectural design, I would value your help in getting the word out.

What You Will Be Promoting

You will be driving traffic to The Tiny House Archive Set. This is a comprehensive collection of my work from the first decade of the tiny house movement. It is being offered at a steep discount to close out this chapter of my work.

The Tiny House Plan Set Includes:

• 20 Tiny House on Wheels Plans: Ranging from the 12′ Philo to the 10×42′ Carrack.
• 4 Cabin Plans: Fixed-foundation designs including the popular Homesteader’s Cabin.
• 4 Design E-Books: Including Tiny House Floor Plans and the Tiny House Design System.

The Price: $47.00 (Total Value)

The Urgency: This is a limited-time release before I pivot to new designs in 2026.

The Affiliate Details

I value your time and expertise, and I want to make this partnership simple and rewarding.

• Commission: 30% on every sale generated through your unique link.

Why Promote This Plan Set?

1. High Value, Low Cost: At $47 for 28 plans and 4 books, this is an “impulse buy” price point for anyone interested in tiny living, leading to higher conversion rates for you.
2. Historical Significance: These designs represent the early history of the movement—perfect for audiences interested in the evolution of tiny homes.
3. Educational Focus: As I often say, even if someone never builds a micro-home, studying these plans teaches extreme space optimization—a valuable skill for any homeowner.

How to Join the Partner Program

If you are a tiny house advocate, blogger, or publisher, I’d love to have you on board.

What Comes Next?

The closing of the archive isn’t the end; it’s a reset. Once this sale concludes, I am returning to the design studio in 2026 with a fresh focus on Modern and Mid-Century aesthetics. By joining the program now, you are getting in on the ground floor of this new chapter.

Future releases will address a major evolution in the movement: the need for a bit more space. I plan to publish every new transportable design in simultaneous pairs—offering both a standard 8.5-foot road version and a spacious 10-foot wide iteration of the house design, like the Carrack (pictured below). I will be documenting this design process on a new YouTube channel, providing you with a steady stream of fresh, engaging content to share with your audience long after the archive closes.
