Their Raised Roof School Bus Conversion


This post contains affiliate links.

Bryant is no stranger to living tiny! He had spent almost a year living in a van (and not a converted van, just a van he slept in) before deciding he wanted something homier and purchased a bus. He later met Arissa, traveled and worked with her, and then they got to building out this gorgeous skoolie!

Unlike many skoolie conversions, they chose to use residential windows in their build. They also wanted a TV without needing to look at it all the time, so they have it pop up out of their mantle! In the bathroom, you’ll find beautiful tile work set with flexible mortar, and the kitchen features live-edge countertops. Tell us your favorite part in the comment.

    I assume that the residential windows are much better insulated?

      They can be, it’s an option that can far exceed what’s available for mobile structures, but they typically just perform better and are easier to maintain and replace. Along with more design options and optional features available…

    Great job! Love all your tech and the way you incorporated the many residential features into a mobile build. BTW, Airstream also has a TV in a motorized enclosure. What do you use for the TV and media audio? Is it wired in or Bluetooth? Well designed shower. I would have used a flush toilet, but that’s my preference. When you drive, is there a set of gauges on a regular dashboard or do you use the screen? How did you combine all the monitoring on it, especially the engine and spedometer?? That ceiling is awesome. So is the kitchen. Nice dog, too. What breed?
