“They live in a 1977 bus — and it’s STUNNING inside” 😲🚌 Erika and Clint turned a rusty old school bus into a jaw-dropping tiny home full of charm, light, and clever design. You won’t believe what they did with the kitchen — or the vintage details they kept. See the incredible interior in the article below 👇
Erika and Clint, two adventurers at heart, decided to transform a vintage bus into their cozy tiny home. They found a 1977 California Crown bus, with its charming curves, and knew it was the perfect canvas for their dream.
They knew it wouldn’t be a walk in the park. The bus, with its rounded walls and roof, presented a unique set of challenges. The conversion process, a labor of love, stretched over 18 months.
“Triple, quadruple the time you think it’ll take,” Erika says, laughing a little at the memory. “That’s what nobody tells you about building a skoolie.”
But they weren’t alone. The skoolie community, with its online resources and especially those helpful YouTube videos, became their guides.
The 36-foot bus is now a cozy, colorful home, a testament to Erika’s interior design skills. She brought her professional eye to the project, creating a light, airy space within the confines of a tiny home. It’s a feat of clever design, a testament to her creativity.
They kept the front of the bus as-is, preserving its vintage charm. The kitchen, though small, is a marvel of functionality. A reclaimed wood counter with a U-shaped workspace, thanks to a clever flip-up leaf, is both beautiful and practical.
The living room is a warm and inviting space, with built-in bookshelves that hug two windows. A comfy couch with hidden storage and ottomans for extra seating make it the perfect place to relax and unwind.
The bathroom, tucked between the living room and the bedroom, is a testament to the couple’s love of detail. It’s chic, practical, and fully functional. The shower, tiled from floor to ceiling, even has a waterproof PVC vanity that cleverly hides an electrical outlet.
