New Zealand seems to have its own unique ideas of what constitutes a proper camping trailer, from otherworldly pods to eco-friendly little boxes. Bubble Caravans presented yet another vision, combining his psychedelic ’60s-inspired throwback design cues, bubbly shapes and comfortable queen interiors with his signature fiberglass teardrop . Throw in a galley that flips up like a multi-tool and slides open to offer three different cooking options, and you’ve got a micro-he camper like no other.
The 13-foot (4 m) long Bubble Caravan gets its distinctive look from a fiberglass monocoque that provides joint-free weather protection. Touches like molded taillight fixtures and steep fenders add to the trailer’s vintage feel, while marine-grade foam insulation keeps the cabin cozy.
Inside, the curvilinear, foam-inspired shape of the sidewalls is said to offer a wider feel than your average flat-walled teardrop, giving way to a proper queen-sized mattress. A headboard and fabric-trimmed surfaces enhance soft-touch comfort, while USB ports and overhead cabinets add even more space. Buyers can also choose from options that include a TV and sound system.

The true highlight of the Bubble Caravan design is its expansive fastpack rear galley. In addition to the usual tailgate countertop, there are multiple slide-out and hinged lid compartments to accommodate more equipment. Most notably, the side slide-outs around the corner are sized to hold the optional built-in gas grill. The grill can be complemented with a slide-out dual-burner gas stove and microwave, but buyers can also rely on portable camping gear to keep it simple. There is a 100L refrigerator under the counter, which can be upgraded to a 12V refrigerator/freezer. Center sink with running tap is standard equipment.
