Rotating Wall

Wow, talk about unique! This rotating wall truly sets us apart from the competition in both style and functionality. We designed the rotating wall to maximize space and enhance comfort. Its purpose is simple yet brilliant: you can have your TV in both the lounge and the bedroom. Host family and guests for a movie night in the lounge, and when it’s time to unwind, simply spin the wall to bring the TV into the bedroom for a relaxing retreat.

At Uprising Homes, we believe that maximizing living space is key to making tiny homes truly livable, offering comfort and room to breathe without sacrificing the cozy charm.
