We received this submission from Andrew Scherr which includes concept drawings for a camper or travel trailer. The project is called “Eco Caravan”. In Andrew's words, “the ECO Traveler concept is a shed office on wheels, specially designed to be towed by a car, van or pickup by means of a bumper or frame hitch. The ECO traveler provides all the comforts and necessities of a home while on the road.” More and more people are looking at more mobile lifestyles. Coupled with the desire to live more eco-friendly, there likely is a future market for living spaces such as these. Via – Andrew Scherr.
