Background House

To me, a "background" house or "background" build is a build that is too small to be considered "full-sized" and therefor is not fully functional. They are part of the background of a much larger scene.

Background houses typically have only one room per level and usually don't go over two stories high.

Due to their small size, background houses don't have separate, walled-off, dedicated-purpose rooms like a kitchen, a living room, a bathroom, a bedroom, a laundry room, a basement, an attic, and closets.

Like supporting cast in a film, these  background builds are the "supporting" structures in the landscape, farm, village, town or city scenes they are a part of.
