David and Darian had to do a big cull of their belongings to make Airstream life work, but smart storage solutions mean they've adapted to small-space living well.

The elaborate pocket door was carved by David with a CNC machine.

Instead of polishing the exterior, they decided to embrace the old Airstream’s aged patina.

In the bedroom, built-in wall shelving provides smart storage solutions.

A metal wall divider helps delineate space between the living area and bedroom.

A neutral color scheme and wood elements give the trailer a cozy, rustic feel.

To hold up against wear and tear, the sofa cushions are upholstered in a pet- and kid-friendly performance fabric with FibreGuard.

The banquette, countertops, floating shelves, niches, and bedframe are made from reclaimed pine.

The interior features durable, lightweight vinyl plank flooring, and the walls are painted Benjamin Moore Cloud White.

The family found the old trailer on the side of the road, when vacationing on Cortes Island.

Dubbed Cortes, the 1972 Land Yacht is located on Vancouver Island.

The bedroom features a large picture window and built-in shelving and seating.

The structure of the covered terrace harnesses views of sky and land.

Beside a simple but spacious kitchen, the living area is meant to be warm and casual.

Built-in shelving in the ground-floor living area provides ample storage for books and records. “This is my favourite chair, where I like to sit and watch the fire or read a book,” says the owner.
