Mehrzeller. The multicellular caravan.
Mehrzeller means “multi cell” and thus introduces a new generation of mobile living. The stunning Caravan Concept, which reminds me of Kurt Schwitters Merzbau, is a traditional hitched travel trailer that’s skinned inside and out with plenty of polygons.
It is the creation of Christian Freissling and Theresa Kalteis, two designers from Graz University of Technology in Austria.
Interior prototype:
"Using the online Configurator, every user sets up a design that is unique, their own layout that they can identify with. The configuration is generated by a computer using the customer’s inputs, and then the final design is done by parameters from the architects to yield an attractive and practicable result. The caravans are produced using the principles of “mass customization”: this allows both the individual wishes of the customer to be accommodated while producing the caravan with series methods."

Would you buy one for yourself?
The merzbau link doesn’t work.

I wouldn’t buy one.
I like the concept, I love the aesthetic,
but … I’am not a camper.
