My Work Story
Maria has 15 years of experience with space optimization. She draws on experience from her studies at Aarhus School of Architecture and hands-on interior design projects with many customers.
She quickly found her passion for tiny spaces and space optimization while studying architecture.
She started documenting the tiny house community back in 2014 and today she has interviewed hundreds of people who live in small spaces in everything from tiny houses on wheels to boats and RVs. She started our YouTube channel to document it all.
Her videos have been viewed more than 20 million times and today she’s a full-time YouTuber and Blogger. Maria also started the travel channel OneGirlOneSuitcase but I have paused it to focus on GoDownsize.
As a child, she spent countless hours in her dad’s woodworking workshop and that’s where she found her passion for furniture and interior design.
Maria often travels with her family in their RV which they’ve rebuilt completely together in order to make it the optimal home on wheels for our little family.
