At EXOBOX, we design and build custom tiny houses. Whether it’s for permanent residence, a vacation home, or a guesthouse, we make your tiny house smart, stylish, and fully functional.
Everything you need to live well in a small space. That’s EXOBOX. A tiny house that fits perfectly and, most importantly, a place to live that perfectly matches the way you live.
From a modern kitchen to a cozy bedroom and a comfy sitting area, everything you need is there. Stably anchored when in use, and easily movable when necessary.
Your EXOBOX rests very firmly on its foundation thanks to its steel frame. But that doesn’t mean it should stay in the same place forever. We can simply lift your EXOBOX and move it to its new spot. Handy when you want to redesign your garden or when you move. The EXOBOX moves along. What’s more, the fact that it is movable makes it a more permit-friendly option than a permanent structure. A nice bonus, don’t you think?
Each component is carefully manufactured in accordance with the specifications and design drawings. High-quality materials are used to ensure durability and insulation. The walls and roof panels are insulated and fully equipped with electric wiring. Windows and doors are installed, and any additional features needed – such as lighting or heating – are added.
The insulation that we provide depends on what you will use your EXOBOX for and we will adjust it accordingly. Clearly, an EXOBOX that is meant to be used as a garden office has other insulation requirements than a storage space. Our standard insulations levels are 10 cm of glass wool insulation in the floor, ceiling and walls. Also, the the windows and doors that we install are always in compliance with the applicable standards. An EXOBOX is perfectly water-resistant thanks to the water-repellent membrane.
An EXOBOX stands out thanks to its neat and aesthetically clean finish both on the inside and on the outside. It is designed to suit any style of interior. Looking to create a warm and cosy reading corner? Or a comfortable and inspiring work environment? Or rather an eye-catching showroom? The EXOBOX’s interior has it all. Walls can be done in any finishing material of your choice – do you prefer plywood or panels? The possibilities are never-ending. Have you thought about interior equipment, ventilation or air conditioning for your garden room? We have!
When it comes to the exterior material of your EXOBOX, you can choose from a variety of sustainable materials. Timber, lacquered steel sheets, Trespa® panels or glass panels are all possible.
The EXOBOX garden room is installed on a screw pile foundation, making it quick and easy to install. It can also be built on an existing foundation if there is any. The screw pile foundation minimises the disruption of soil life and offers the flexibility to move the garden room to another location if needed.
An EXOBOX garden room is easy to install and fits your garden perfectly. The crane lifts the garden room and carefully places it in the desired location – easy and efficient.
The EXOBOX’s metal structure already comes with all the necessary wiring and piping, which facilitates installation and shortens the time between the installation and the use considerably. This means that the EXOBOX can be easily connected to the existing water and power supply infrastructure and other utilities.
After the installation, we can take care of any finishing touches around your EXOBOX. A carefully landscaped lawn, planting of bushes and trees, or even the integration of a swimming pool are part of our expertise. We aim for your EXOBOX to seamlessly blend into its surroundings and become an integral part of your garden.
In Belgium, you can place a tiny house in areas that comply with the land’s zoning and the municipality’s regulations. In residential areas, it is usually allowed, provided the tiny house meets the applicable building codes. On agricultural land, placing a tiny house is generally only possible if you have an agricultural function and obtain specific permission. Recreational land offers opportunities for temporary stays, but permanent residency is often not permitted. It is essential to always consult the local regulations and zoning plans before placing a tiny house.
The cost of a tiny house varies depending on the size, finish, and technology used. A basic tiny house typically costs between €30,000 and €50,000. For a custom tiny house with luxury features and high-quality materials, the price usually ranges from €60,000 to €100,000. If you want a fully off-grid tiny house with solar panels and rainwater collection, you can expect to pay an additional €10,000 to €20,000.
In Belgium, you can live in a tiny house if it is placed in an area designated for residential use and meets local building regulations. Permanent residency is possible in residential zones or in specific tiny house projects, provided the municipality grants permission. For temporary living, a tiny house can be placed on recreational land or private property, as long as a temporary permit has been issued. Some municipalities in Belgium offer space for experimental living forms where tiny houses are explicitly allowed. For clear guidance, it is always advisable to contact the municipality where you wish to live.
In Belgium, the size of a tiny house that can be placed without a permit depends on the region. In Flanders, outbuildings and tiny houses up to 40 m² are often permit-free, provided they are not used for permanent residence and are located in the backyard. In Wallonia, this limit is usually set at 20 m², depending on the use and location. In the Brussels-Capital Region, a permit is almost always required, regardless of size. For permanent residence in a tiny house, a permit is generally needed, regardless of the size. Therefore, it is crucial to check the regulations of the local authorities before placing a tiny house.

Een fantastisch en hip product als 'tuinhuis' Jean-louis Van malder5 Februari 2021 Tout en se présentant comme une construction solide, défiant les intempéries et le temps, l'EXOBOX n'impose aucune contrainte à l'environnement. Parfaitement autonome, l'EXOBOX s'adapte à tous les sites par sa construction sur plots. Ce faisant, il respecte parfaitement la microbiologie des sols et permet de surcroit l'établissement d'endroits de nidification, voire de petits biotopes.
