7. School Bus Converted RV by United States Architect, Hank Butitta
Hank Butitta converted a school bus he bought on craigslist into a mobile home for his Master’s final project at the University of Minnesota. Usually we imagine a school bus’s interior tightly lined with brown vinyl lined seats, but Hank has created a much different vision. Enter Hank’s school bus and you will be impressed by the open living space covered in smooth plywood. Windows line both sides of the bus letting natural light flood inside creating a heavenly vibe. The bus has an open kitchen as well as a sleeping area that includes two beds. The seating space occupies the largest part of the bus. The long couches of the living area fold out to create a queen size bed, but can also be transformed into desks or tables for working and eating.
