designing a towable nomadic vessel in which the interior is as mobile as its exterior. the walls move, the floor opens up, and 6 rooms are formed. transformable and comfortable, the mobile home for two.
9 the transdreamer is known for its mobile interior. the kitchen space becomes a sleeping space, and a living space. the dining room disappears, and so does a lot of the furniture within the mobile home. this is a plan of the option where the kitchen is open, along with the dining room. the walk-in closet and the bathroom are always accessible.
when the bed is opened up, there is access to all the clothes, washroom facilities and television- the three most useful activities when starting the day. also, if coffee is needed, the counter is still accesible from one side.
the living room is located beneath the floor, so it is in a cozy boxed-in space to sit back, read a book or watch television.

in my rare-spare time i enjoy to get artistic. there are a lot of things in this world that should be captured at that single moment, or they are forever lost.
