Caravan Tokyo

View all 11 Photos

There’s no question that Japanese design is at the top of its class; but the nation may have outdone itself with Caravan Tokyo, a once-in-a-lifetime travel experience at the heart of the nation’s capital city. Custom-built by local craftspeople, the clean, elegant wooden interior is not exactly what one might expect from a trailer. Despite its isolation and compact layout, it provides heat, air conditioning, plumbing, Internet, and more for all the comforts of a hotel room minus the hustle and bustle; and with a prime location in the upscale neighborhood of Omotesando, you’re still just minutes away from some of the best food and fashion around town. Caravan Tokyo allows visitors to escape the busy city in a monument to good design; from incredible space efficiency to its smart minimal aesthetic, the camper gives non-natives a genuine look at what makes Japan unique.
