Architecture
What’s the difference between the Tiny, Living and Resort collections?
The Tiny Collection brings together 6 compact habitats from 21 to 32 sqm (Glass, Mono, Open, Fold, Span, Pod). The Living Collection brings together 8 models from 40 to 160 sqm built to last (Line, Level, Court, Block, Vista, Scope, Form, Axis). The Resort Collection selects, from these models, those best suited to outdoor hospitality, plus the exclusive Frame model, each keeps its original architecture.
View all collections →How many models does Nöma offer?
14 distinct models in the catalogue, split between the Tiny Collection (6 models) and the Living Collection (8 models), plus Nöma Frame, exclusive to the Resort Collection, 15 architectures in total.
Can I customise an existing model?
Yes, within the options available for each model. Every model has a fixed base specification (structure, insulation, joinery) and a list of real options specific to that model (deck, pergola, solar panels, furniture, appliances...). Our configurator lets you select the options available for your chosen model.

Can you live year-round in a Nöma tiny house?
Yes, our tiny houses feature high-performance thermal insulation and full amenities (kitchen, bathroom, heating). Some models are better suited to occasional or rental use; our team helps you find the model that fits your actual use.
What floor area for a Nöma tiny house?
From 21 sqm (Nöma Fold) to 32 sqm (Nöma Mono). Each floor area corresponds to a different configuration, 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom across the whole collection, with varied layouts depending on the model.

A Nöma tiny house is built on a fixed galvanised steel structure, with materials and insulation comparable to traditional construction. A mobile home retains means of mobility and meets different, generally lighter, construction standards.
Projects
What are the stages of a Nöma project?
Seven stages: first conversation (listening to your project), site assessment, design (plans and modelling), workshop manufacturing, delivery, installation on your site, then handover. Utility connections (water, electricity) are arranged separately with a local professional. Every stage is followed by our team.
How do I get a quote?
Configure your habitat (model and options) in our configurator, then request your quote from the summaryor contact us directly via the form or by phone. Every quote is prepared individually, based on the model, options and your site.
Contact us →Can I visit a Nöma model before ordering?
Contact us to find out about visiting options based on your region and the models available at the time of your request.
Land
Do I need planning permission?
This depends on floor area and how long the habitat will be installed. Below certain thresholds, a simple prior declaration is enough; beyond that, planning permission is required. Your local town hall’s planning department confirms which rule applies, Service-Public.fr (the French government portal) details the surface thresholds.
View the Regulations & installation page →What orientation should I choose for my land?
A broadly south-facing orientation maximises winter light; east-west offers differentiated morning/evening light. The right choice depends on the plot, local climate, topography and intended room use, our team carries out a personalised siting study for every project.
Read our article on orientation →Can a Nöma habitat be installed anywhere in France?
Feasibility depends on the local urban planning document (PLU), the plot’s accessibility for transport and installation, and the regulation applicable to your project’s size. Our site assessment checks these elements before manufacturing begins.
View the Regulations & installation page →Construction
What is the average manufacturing time?
Lead times vary by model and chosen options. They are communicated precisely when your quote is prepared, once your configuration is finalised.
How are Nöma habitats manufactured?
We use an integrated methodology (VDC/BIM) and a light steel structure prefabricated in our workshop, standardised to guarantee consistent geometry from one module to the next. This industrialised process reduces both lead times and construction waste compared to traditional building.
See our manufacturing method →How do delivery and installation work?
Once manufactured in our workshop, your habitat is transported and installed on your site by our teams. Utility connections (water, electricity) are not carried out by Nömathey need to be arranged with a local professional, coordinated with our team for timing.
View the Regulations & installation page →Materials
What materials are used for the structure?
Main structure in high-strength galvanised steel, treated against corrosion. Insulation uses rock wool or an equivalent high-performance material, for excellent thermal and acoustic comfort.
See all our materials →Does timber cladding require special maintenance?
Class 3 or 4 treated cladding is designed for minimal upkeep. It naturally evolves over time (greying patina if not deeply treated), which is part of its character rather than a flaw.
What type of glazing equips Nöma habitats?
Low-emissivity (low-e) double glazing, which limits heat loss in winter while filtering some solar radiation in summer, an important balance on models with large glazed bays.
Investment
Can a Nöma habitat be profitable as a rental?
Profitability depends on location, demand seasonality, operating costs and local rental regulation, not just the property itself. Our Invest page offers an indicative yield simulation to help you assess a rental project.

Our experts can point you toward financing solutions suited to your project when preparing your quote.
View the Pricing & financing page →Is the Resort Collection suited to a hospitality project?
Yes, that’s its purpose. These models are selected for their balance of guest experience, operating performance and profitability, with signature architecture that’s immediately identifiable for your estate.
