This is how caravans should look

Over on Product Design forums, Rob Villa has produced a stunning concept of a brighter caravaning future, he says




"My design is inspired by airstreams and 50s style, highlighted by the whitewall
tyres and wheel covers, and the sleek airstream form and aluminium band and dark
windows"

The interior is modern and sophisticated with a bedroom located above the main living area created by an electrically operated pop up roof, access to this bedroom space is provided via the moveable ladder at the end of the kitchen area.


There is a comfortable sized bathroom and a clean kitchen with fold out breakfast bar area. In the main living area there is a sofa which also doubles as a bed with a second slide out mattress and stackable chairs provide more seating options. Additional space is provided via the fold down rear panel which gives a decking area which can be used as both an inside and outside space.


Having worked in the caravan industry myself I would conclude that the time is ripe for manufactureres to develop their model ranges using Rob's design as inspiration. For sure production models are bound to look somewhat different after concessions are made to manufacturing and market research but who wouldn't want to holiday in something so fantastic looking? I know I would!
