One look at an Airstream and you know exactly what it is for. It’s meant to be lived in. It’s meant to move. It’s meant to help people reconnect with their world in a unique way that mtranscends its functionality.

Eight decades after its introduction, art historians and design experts are still extolling the purity and emotional appeal of this self-contained living accommodation. These stunning vehicles are the ultimate in luxury touring combining modern design and lifestyle aspiration in a way that no other leisure vehicle can match.

From the time they acquired their alluring aluminium shell, Airstreams have been a magnet for designers, architects and visionary owners eager to match interior spaces to their personal aspirations for colour, texture and utility.

“No one has yet to surpass them,” said architect Margaret McCurry in Architectural Digest.

Airstream’s Chairman, Larry Huttle, believes Airstream has become a design icon for reasons bordering on the transcendental. “I believe it has become a metaphor for freedom and many people aspire to that freedom,” Huttle said. “There is a wandering spirit to the people who buy this product. They don’t know what’s over the next horizon but they want to go see it…There’s a spiritual aspect to owning one.” And that is what adventure, and Airstream, is all about.
