Though the idea of camping has existed for centuries, the idea of having a mobile travel trailer goes back to early 1910, as more people sought out mobility. From simply eyeing the portfolio of work for Flyte Camp, one can see the long history of campers and how the industry has slowly evolved over the past century.

Restoration vs Renovation

Vintage Restorations of campers centers around taking an old travel trailer, in relatively mint condition and restoring it to the factory original. Similar to the way you might restore a classic car, the Flyte team uses their vast network to source materials and parts to bring travel trailers back from the dead.

Nevertheless, the more commonly requested thing to do in the camper industry is to complete a vintage renovation of a trailer: the process of taking an original vintage coach and customizing both the interiors and exteriors to a customer's specific needs.

Flyte Camp uses their extensive knowledge to create travel trailers that not only still maintains that beloved vintage appeal but that also provides a modern twist.

Mobile Living Room

As stated above campers have a wide range of amenities and is usually only limited to one’s own imagination. Some campers are simple mobile living rooms with a small seating area and living space to entertain guests on the road.

Some of the more luxurious travel trailers can host a series of amenities like leather couches, a bedroom, a mini kitchen or even a fully functioning bathroom.

Flyte Camp does this and more at their studio, taking advantage of the host of the modern materials available to their team. In one prime example of this, Flyte combined old with new in the Spartan Royal Mansion, a mid-sized 1950 travel home.

While preserving its old charm, the team added luxurious amenities like surround sound, a wine fridge, and a new Lp system.
