Redecorating a motorhome is tricky because the market as a whole is focused on practicality rather than style. However, a specialist vinyl wrap can transform the look of your mobile home extremely quickly.
Despite so many people pursuing the van life, a lot of motorhome and caravan furniture and accessories are designed with utilitarian purposes in mind.
They are designed to fit in the caravan, minimise how much space you need and adhere to strict weight limits on British roads, which does not leave a lot of room left for style.
As a result, a lot of motorhomes have styling that is stuck in the 1970s, with an emphasis on woodgrain, brown polyester textiles and an aesthetic that is not exactly amenable to long-term living.
It is possible to find small enough pieces of furniture and appliances that are more stylish, particularly in the wake of the tiny house movement, but a much easier option is to use a vinyl wrap to provide an affordable, long-lasting, rapid camper van transformation.
The beauty of a caravan is that many of them are small enough that little changes can make a huge difference. Adding marble-effect countertops, matte panels in more modern, stylish colours and changing the tired textiles for something more modern.
The reason why caravan makers are reluctant to update their styles is that the market for caravans prizes original components in a similar way to cars rather than homes.
Vinyl wraps are completely reversible, so if you change your mind or need to sell it, it is a simple job to remove all of the wrap and restore your caravan back to normal if you need to.
Finally, vinyl wrapping is very versatile; a lot of cabinets and panels are custom-made to add as much space as possible, which can make it tricky to source stylish replacements.
Vinyl can be used almost anywhere if installed by a professional, and it is far more affordable than refitting your caravan completely.
