Circus Wagon

Circus Wagon

Design and conversion of a circus wagon into a weekend retreat for a family on an island in the River Havel outside of Berlin.

The wagon was stripped to its metal structure and then completely rebuilt.
Interior cladding and furniture made from Birch Plywood. Kitchen and shelves constructed in powder coated steel. Doors, windows and exterior paneling made of larch.

The wagon has running water all year round. There is a shower and a toilet, a wood burning oven and a simple, fully working kitchen installed. The wagon was built across 2012/13.
