This Reinvented School Bus Is a Fairy Tale Home

We’ve seen people selling all their belongings and leaving their entire lives behind just to hop on a trailer and see the world. Some are youngsters, others are simply sick of their regular lives. This creation is the result of something else and rather inspires the feeling of a cosy atmosphere only the family’s chimney still offers.

Paul Stender’s famous spitting-fire School Time is powered by an extremely thirsty GE J-79 engine whose gas tank can guzzle up to 150 gallons (567 liters) of fuel in just one ride. But this School bus is far from being a speed monster. In a way, the house-school-bus is closer to what Hank Butitta, a student who finished his Masters in Architecture at the University of Minnesota, designed and built for his final project.

Like Butitta’s bus, this one also was conceived as a vehicle that should no longer look like an automobile once the transformation is ready. Unlike the master project, however, as we can observe by looking at the pictures not even the exterior remained untouched. In fact the married couple that designed the bus won’t even use it to travel, instead they are planning to live in it.

The pictures were all taken and later uploaded on Leah Thompson's blog. It turns out the bus-turned-into-home was completely custom-built and designed by her brother-in-law and her sister. As the pictures clearly show, they have created a house built on top of a working school bus. And that is because they’re planning to prepare the land where they want to park their new residence and then move in.

While the exterior is covered in wood tiles and comes with a real door and windows, the interior is even better. If you were to imagine a fairy tale the bus’ door would be the portal to another world. Finished with beautifully crafted wood accents, everything is perfectly balanced with the space such a vehicle is able to offer.
