As Joshua and I have talked and dreamed of smaller living spaces, one of the nonnegotiable areas has been a space for our hobbies. Joshua plays the electric bass, chapman stick and a touch of violin and keyboard. I have a sewing studio for upcycled fashion design.
After many scribbles and scratched designs for the floor plan, we found one that will house our hobbies, a full kitchen and bath as well as a queen size bed and plenty of storage.
For orientation, the front door is in the bottom left of the drawing. Climb two steps, and you are facing Joshua's music studio (a table placed over the driver's seat while the bus is stationary.) To the left, is my sewing studio with a storage cabinet and drop down table. On the right, is our leather sofa (6ft) which will have storage underneath. Continue through the kitchen, with the sink on the left, dorm size refrigerator on the right and under counter storage on both sides. We are planning on using portable propane burners and a wall mounted convection oven for cooking. Step through the pocket door and into the bathroom with a composting toilet on your left and a round shower stall on your right. Walk around the outside of the shower, down the short hallway and into our "love nest." We will have storage under the bed accessible from inside and outside the bus.
Sure, there's only 200 square feet, but we're excited to try it out! We don't mind sharing each other's space and on those rough days - there's always the park, a bookstore or the local coffee shop.
