It comes decked out with solar cells, a solar concentrator to generate hot water, and a telescopic wind turbine.

The fold-able caravan can rotate 360 degrees to follow the sun.

A parabolic mirror atop tracks the sun. A telescopic vertical axis wind turbine can generate 500 watts of clean power.

Solar cells supplement the renewable energy generation, providing another 500 watts.

It can then be towed as a standard caravan, folds up for easy travel, and one person can do the job in around half an hour.

There’s a 77.5 square foot master bedroom, with a 59 square foot children’s bedroom next door. Each of these opens to the outdoors with a full-size door. A bathroom area includes a toilet, sink, shower, and compact washing machine.

A rotating bubble window offers a fun way to look outside, and rose windows on the bedroom roofs let those beneath control the sunlight’s intensity inside.
