Built on a fire truck chassis designed to save lives, it now creates memories.

Specifications: define the identity and artistic direction of the custom layout. My role: concept, visual research, 3D modeling, and preparation for production.
Method: user scenarios, aesthetic proposals, and budget estimation integrated into a faithful 3D model.

Project handcrafted in Okoumé plywood.

Materials/techniques: Okoumé plywood selected for its stability and durability in humid environments. Finishes: "ashen camel" stain combined with satin black lacquer. The hardware and technical details are integrated discreetly to preserve the visual unity.

Travel, live—comfortably.

Configuration: crosswise bed 1.50 × 1.90 m with a large storage compartment underneath, central technical block (electric, heating) and ergonomic living space. In the front: compact kitchen, integrated shower, and dry toilets. The circulation is optimized for daily family use.

Slate shower cabin.

Materials used: "flexistone" coating, a flexible and waterproof material ensuring durability and performance.

Marine Inspiration - Weight Optimization.

Weight Constraint: lightweight methods and materials chosen to limit mass while maintaining structural integrity. Approach borrowed from nautical techniques: minimal structure, targeted reinforcements, light finishing.
