Architecture student Hank Butitta converted old school bus into a 225 square foot mobile home with small kitchen, living room, and bedroom.
School bus was purchased for only $3000 and then completely renovated for another $6000. The project was completed in 15 weeks.
Tiny house on wheels is equipped with custom furniture, hidden storage compartments, LED lights, and wood flooring (reclaimed from old gym).

I think I’d pass. Clever idea but not my taste as things go.

I see expenses as fuel, traffic violations, bus repairs, parking fee, toll fee, etc.

It’s a pretty gorgeous renovation- I love the amount of wood on show. Would be great for researchers out in the field or for a close couple x

My dad and brothers turned an old school bus into a house which our family of nine proceeded to take on a five month trip. Hectic, and lots of fun.

Im going on an adventure by recycling a bus into a place. I love the bed design in the back of the bus. I wanted to do something like that for my kids in my bus i was wondering if you have plains for the design? or if you just did it your self. yah ether way. Really really nice job I like the bus a lot

As a small child in the 1970’s, we traveled from NY to Maine in a converted school bus. What an adventure! I only wish we had your talent and insight back then. Congratulations on your success and I truly believe the TH movement is going to help so many people have a decent shot at a home.
