Project 1: The Bus

The bus of approx. size of 18' by 7'6" was bought by our client and we had to redesign it.  This was my board.
     The primary thought process was to build a room that would be functionally solid as well as be a great partition which would stop heavy equipment.  The couch could be replaced with a full kitchen but I would have to look more closely into the miniaturization of kitchen equipment.  Or it could be left with the couch for a open living space.  The back is sleeping and bath all supported by the same steel poles.
     I was going for the theme of movement of shadows as the poles make as well as trying to keep the exterior of the school bus  the same.  Hopefully, the movement of shadows is seen enough that it really feels like a bus yet a livable space.
