New form of mobility


To tell the truth I've never been on a camper. I've never liked the idea of living "on the move". But things change sometimes! Although I still prefer to sleep in a hotel and then drive a car and travel the day after, the other day I came across this idea. Wonderful!
It was announced at the Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf and apparently is already changing the concept of tourism. The idea comes from a thesis project developed by two architecture students of the Graz University.It is based on a cell-design (that's where the name comes from: Mehrzeller) that can be personalized by the client which is a brilliant idea since, like Freitag bags, there is not one same as another.I really love the architecture behind the idea but still I consider myself, in this specific case, a lazy tourist. I travel a lot, visit a lot of places, but on vacation I like doing absolutely nothing. No cooking, no laundry, no cleaning, no phone and no driving!!!
I guess I will have to go on vacation with someone who does because this camper is awesome!

I agree totally. I don't know how to even do laundry. my brother and I made up a story about how we should clone my driver in a couple different sizes.

take over my mom's new house. and turn it into whatever it wants to become!
