Caravans Are Hot!

I'm seeing lots of caravans lately... in print, online, in photography, on clothing, caravans are hot! And they're not used only as design motifs, real life caravans (well in Europe they're called that, here in the states we usually refer to them as travel trailers) are a hot new trend popping up all over - a bit of a home away from home with unlimited decorating possibilities. Here's a few caravans to inspire you today in case you haven't noticed them yet -- surely you will now.

a. Ken enjoyed the peace and quiet by Yellow Monday, b. the caravan exhibition by Seaspray Blue, c. image from No Chintz, d. caravan series by Leah Giberson, e. Remember Happiness by Vol. 25, f. fabric from Leanne Graeff and g. Metal caravan.

Or how about the Mehrzeller concept caravan? I prefer the vintage gypsy wagons myself, or the American classic Airstream but if you're a modernist this one will dazzle (and confuse) passerbys on the interstate for sure!

These caravans are so sweet... Imagine owning one and keeping it in the backyard as an traveling art studio that you could bring to fairs if you are a painter/crafter? So cute! Psst: Here's a great article in the London Telegraph today about Caravans of Love that you may enjoy.

Where are you seeing caravans lately? Would you like to own one? How would you use it - vacation, staycation in the backyard, for business???
