Thought I'd post an update on the mobile office. My husband has been steadily working on the interior on boring, but necessary, updates. He removed, resealed and replaced one of the upper windows and the awning due to leakage issues. The above- the-cab cabinet has been rebuilt with a shelf added. Face frame and doors to come.
We've been doing more research online: how to install the ceiling liner, how to build a custom shower pan for an RV, which solar panels would be the best option, etc. We've also received a $3500 order of parts: fridge, sink & stove, toilet, faucets, water heater, furnace, LED lights, etc.
But, most importantly, I found my inspiration in this wall mural from Black Crow Studios. I intend to hang it on the wall behind the sofa, across from the sliding door. It will be the first thing one sees upon entering, and it sets the tone for the remainder of the space.

We chose a sleek sink/stove combo, an Italian model from Smev. It will fit in our narrow kitchen cabinetry - the compact size is a plus. Trying to decide between stainless steel penny tiles or subway tiles for the backsplash. It will depend on which has the most 'give' since the walls are slightly curved. We may have to use stainless sheets for flexibility. I'd like a stainless counter, too.
In keeping with the atypical decor, I'm exploring the possibility of using translucent, corrugated plastic as the walls to the bathroom. I want to keep the interior as light as possible and hate the thought of a 6' high wall blocking the light from the rear door window. The material we're looking at is used for greenhouse walls. I'd like to use this material as the cabinet door fronts as well.

It's all coming along. Patience is a virtue!
