Step into the golden age of travel and design.
For the true Mid-Century Modern devotee, the 1959 Spartan Carousel stands as the crown jewel of luxury trailers — a vision of sleek sophistication and space-age glamour. With only about 250 ever produced, it’s often hailed as the “Eames in a Box” — a rolling icon of innovation and style. Its signature circular kitchen, complete with a curved snack bar and sparkling Sputnik chandelier, made it a marvel of form and function. Sunlight danced across its blond birch paneling, while panoramic windows framed the world beyond like living art.
Now, you can capture that timeless magic in miniature. In this workshop, students will craft their own ¼” scale Spartan Carousel, complete with the iconic round kitchen, Sputnik chandelier, one bedroom, one bath, and graceful floor-to-ceiling windows. Each kit includes vintage-inspired kitchen appliances, and you’ll even learn basic wiring to bring your chandelier to life — just as it would have glowed in 1959.
Immerse yourself in the charm of mid-century modern design — where elegance met adventure, and the open road sparkled with possibility.
Teacher Supplies: Kit, kitchen appliances and wiring.
Students should bring: Basic tool kit. Detailed supply list will be sent by teacher closer to class.
