A Hungarian couple turned an old van into an amazing mobile home – Photo Gallery

How could it feel to live in a 6 square metre rolling apartment, when your home is where you park your vehicle? Norbert Juhász, a young architect and his girlfriend, Dóri realised their dream and exchanged their rented apartment for a house built by themselves, which allows them to travel the world.

Nowadays we can read a lot about people following a “digital nomad” lifestyle, especially those who live in vehicles. This type of travelling called #vanlife is not new: most of us surely remember Volkswagen T1 with its huge wheel and hippy colours, however this lifestyle has went through some changes in the past couple of years. It’s not just the lifestyle of hipsters anymore, people with flexible jobs like programmers, translators, writers, photographers, graphic artists all have the chance to keep changing the location of their home while working without any trouble.

According to player.hu, it took the Hungarian couple almost five months of persistent and cost-effective work to turn the 16-year-old van into a magic car and 6.3 m² mobile home. Norbert shared their story on epiteszfrum.hu, where they wrote that the interior of the van is made up of three furniture elements: the bed, the kitchen and the storage chest.

The first element, behind which the electric system runs, is a sitting area that can be transformed into a bed. The kitchen element includes a gas bottle, a sink, a tap, a 70 litre tank and a storage area. The furniture is L-shaped: its lower part functions as a sitting area, which hides a refrigerator below. The remaining part of the furniture can be used to store anything.
