Focus on the Minimalist Airstream

by arc airstreams on May 18, 2012

Today we’re taking another look at one of our recently finished projects which we like to call, ‘The Minimalist Airstream’.

This Airstream belongs to Doug Hamilton of the Wham Agency in London, a branding company who create, re-invent and deliver new brands worldwide.

The Airstream design brief was that it was to be very low key, simple and definitely ‘not blingy’ – so basically the opposite end of the spectrum in terms of what we have achieved with the Lava Lamp Airstream! If you compare these two trailers that we worked on side-by-side it just goes to show how versatile we are here at American Retro Caravans and how Kathy and Darren are able to work with our clients to develop their vision into reality, rather than recreating the same ‘house style’. You name it – we can build it!

This design maximises the natural light and space in the Airstream. As the Airstream is going to be situated in the South of France it needed to be well insulated against extreme temperatures. ARC will be towing the Airstream down to the South of France for Doug where it will be used as an office and guest accommodation.

Retro Restoration

20 October 2011

Here are a few more pics of our recently completed Retro restoration for a famous author and comedian. He needed a home-from-home when appearing at events and festivals – and nothing says style and comfort more than an Airstream that has been lovingly restored by American Retro Caravans. You might remember us blogging about this [...]

A well travelled Airstream

6 September 2011

These photos show one of our finished Airstreams taken outside our client’s Scottish residence. They have just returned from taking the Airstream to Cannes – we hope to bring you some pics of that soon. We always like to see our Airstreams being used and having adventures once they have been restored.
