Hank Bought A Bus. In architecture school I was tired of drawing buildings that would never exist, for clients that were imaginary, and with details I didn’t fully understand.

Hank Bought A Bus

I prefer to work with my hands, exploring details thoroughly, and enjoy working/prototyping at full scale. So for my Masters Final Project I decided to buy a school bus and convert it into a tiny living space. This was only possible because I was fortunate enough to have an instructor, Adam Marcus, who encourages working at full scale, and allowed me take on such an ambitious and unorthodox project.

Tiny House Design. Maintence, movement remain the key on cruise ships theatres. As cruise ships continue to grow in size and number, the theatres built for them do, too. Despite such changes, however, some basic rigging challenges remain. On larger ships, the theatre's fly tower is three or four decks (30' to 40') high, 20' to 30' deep, and 25' to 40' wide, typically with a mixture of scenery battens, lighting trusses (fixed or motorized), curtain tracks, and scenic roll drops.

Most stages have some limited backstage or wing space, although some do have wide wings or rear stage scene dock areas. Notably, the Princess Grand class ships have deep wings either side of the stage; the full width of the stage, including wings, is about 100', a surprise to many who see it for the first time. The stage will typically have a proscenium opening, possibly with a thrust stage or an orchestra pit with a lift, or it might be more open. A typical cruise ship costs around $400 million to $800 million to build. Maintenance is another important issue on cruise ships. Contemporary Japanese Home Design, M Mansion by BAKOKO.

This refurbishment project was completed on a modest budget, proving that refurbishing existing properties is still an affordable proposition here. The small 37m² (400ft²) unit was divided into two Japanese-style rooms with tatami (reed mat) flooring separated by paper (fusuma) sliding screens and a western kitchen. Whilst being perfectly quaint and cozy, this type of interior was simply made for a different generation. An open plan arrangement was sought, but with space in short supply retaining certain traditional Japanese features also made sense. Meridian Specialty VehiclesMeridian Specialty Vehicles.
