Brian and Joni Buzarde built this inexpensive trailer home to fulfill the couple's love for travel. The twosome wanted to build a house, but like many people, not be tied down to a single location. To address this issue, they opted for a quaint trailer home that covered all the essentials. The couple has nicknamed the trailer home 'Woody' based on the structure's wood-covered exterior.
Luckily for the couple, the planning process began as soon as Brian finished architecture school and his design reflects his education. Much of the interior boasts birch-veneer plywood floors, walls and ceilings. The bed is lofted and sits slightly perched up, and the refrigerator is smaller to create more space. Additional storage compartments are also built in the floors. A clear glass sliding door gives the mobile abode the perception of open space.
