In today’s video, we’ll be taking a look at a clever cabin that takes
after a large marine mammal. Stay tuned to the end for our honorable mentions. Let’s get to it!

If we took a look at a time some 50 million years ago,
we would possibly find the large hook tracks of a mammalian land-dweller roaming the coastlines.
It’s this same creature that would eventually develop fins over the
course of several million years, becoming the creatures we know today as whales!
Not precisely the same whales we know today, some of them would still need to
adapt the ability to filter-feed. Then, as early as only 4.5 million years ago,
they started to get really big with the rise of the blue whale.
Since then, they have evolved from the land to the sea
and back to the land with the Whale Trailer Cabin from Chinese designer Hu Wong.
The Whale Trailer Cabin is a unique camper concept that takes after the
prodigious animal it’s named after in both size and shape.
The white and blue composite shell is also reminiscent of an ocean scene.
The trailer itself is not too large a beast to burden most trucks,
but it does sprawl out to match that unique whale shape and increases its surface area tremendously.
This is how the Whale Trailer Cabin tackles the compactness to usable space ratio
that many struggle to maintain.
The interior of the Whale Trailer Cabin appears to have a fair-sized living room for the family.
A kitchen kitted out from top to toe, a full bathroom,
and a bedroom that sits on a slide-out in the rear.
Several large windows throughout the making of this model invite sunny radiance
and a nice view of whatever scenery you choose.
Whether you want to enjoy the nice weather outside while cooking
or bundle inside for your meal when it’s cool, it’s as simple as sliding the kitchen in or out.
However, what separates the Whale Trailer Cabin is how it explodes into an expansive
full-residence camp space with a rear slide-out and a handful of tents. From
the renders from Wong and his team, it looks as though it could support a family of four.
The rear slide-out nearly doubles the interior living space.
The pop-up roof allows almost anyone to stand upright inside.
The side opens up similar to an airplane enabling easy access to the interior. You
can also open up the rear slide-out for some air or another entrance or exit.
Specs are limited for the Whale Trailer Cabin, as it seems to be a concept right now.
We’ve heard that it has started the early stages of production,
so we could be seeing much more of this one.
If you would like us to keep an eye on this marine mimic and keep you updated in the future,

Modular designs are nothing new, with many camper companies adopting the mindset.
Just take a look at the Vision Venture from Hymer that we previously covered.
Using modularity, it offers a small backdoor terrace, rooftop loft area with staircase,
mini grill, and a transforming bathroom.
And expert use of long wrapping windows opens the living space of this camper quite nicely.

Speaking of campers opening up,
the Skydancer Apero Motorhome is the world’s first convertible motorhome.
This 23-footer has the driver situated on a
small dais where the roof can fully convert while driving.
The driver hub terrace can even convert into a bed for even more sleeping space.

If you’re thirsty for a full sweep of a camper interior,
then having a look at the Touring 820 from Eriba isn’t a bad idea.
The large crystal-silver exterior houses a streamlined and appealing
meal for the eyes with dark wood tones. A kitchen, dinette, and two full-sized beds,
along with the amenities to satisfy your needs.
