After the ideas and planning, it all truly begins with the trailer!
Then, the framing begins.

Time to put up the roof!

Lightweight and easy to tow.

I really like the dual use of the bed as a desk/sofa and then using the desk to extend it at night. Will keep it in mind for my van conversion; really frees up valuable space.
Ya it was very clever! — Tiny House Talk Team
I agree! About freeing up valuable spaces. Two thumbs up!

I like the front porch. It would make it easy to go in and out–better than a set of tiny steps.
I totally agree!
DO U HAVE PLANS AVAILABLE??
How did you finish the inside of the roof?
Thank you for sharing your wonderful camper build. The table idea is fabulous. Have fun camping in your mini castle.
Looks Amazing. Do you have an overall weight on it? How well does it tow going down the highway? I would love to do some thing like this, but as it would be my first time, I have a lot of questions. Best of luck with yours and hope you find lots of great adventures. Thank you for sharing!
I love this! Handsome inside and out. Several people have already asked questions that I am curious about. I will monitor your responses to them. Thank you for the ideas and sharing!
Would you consider building another one for me to purchase?
