Project Shorty - Airstream design mock up

We are restoring an airstream which is having the interior designed by industrial designer adrian weidmann , a very gifted young designer from switzerland. In fact, this is the second airstream we have worked with Adrian's company on -

We scheduled in a weekend for modelling the interior to check how the design worked inside the trailer -

Trailer body had just landed back on the chassis the day before -
