CARAVAN CONCEPT

 

Beyond is a universal caravan concept. It enables people of all ages to travel regardless of the limitations to their abilities. The growing number of elderly people in Germany and of those with age-unrelated limitations requires a new social and creative approach. Many products for this target groups tend to stigmatise. Here, accessibility becomes implicit. Design solutions and details of the concept reinterpret the holiday feeling and not only take into account basic human needs, anthropometry and relevant restrictions of the human body, but also question modern caravan designs.
