Converted School Bus Kitchen

  • Karmen Richardson

For this project, I really wanted to design a kitchen for a converted school bus. I have always wanted to do this project and I still hope I can at some point in life. I did not do it to any proper scale or proportions as it was meant to be a rough sketch but I did end up tidying it up a lot. My main focus was including enough cupboard space as living in a school bus would mean compromising on storage space. I also really wanted to make it as traditional kitchen style as possible with as little change as possible so adding in a small but useful island was a must. Having big openable windows means you can enjoy cooking with as much natural light as possible while being able to use them functionally especially when you park up. Using as much space as possible, I designed a herb and spice rack for one of the walls and for the other a plant holder for fresh herbs or flowers. I do know the scale is very much off, but I did well and I'm still learning and growing.
