That's the aesthetic I'm aiming for when I build my interior  -  light, bright and airy, with lots of white plus some pale wood trim.   I also hope to use IKEA for at least some of my cabinets, but I'm thinking of reinforcing them before I install them to make them more busable.   I'll definitely bookmark this page for inspiration.

     Yeah, I have found a lot of things I like at IKEA; little things like dish racks and curtain hooks.  I'm pretty much done with cabinets, etc. but there is still good stuff at IKEA for what I need.

Its refreshing from the mirrors, busy patterns, and shag carpet.. I like clean and semi contemporary..

Most everything in my kitchen is Ikea.

Ikea. Hmmm, I once thought about ditching the bus and just moving into Ikea. Then I thought the Swedish Meatballs will get a old real fast so I decided to stick with the bus and just take a little Ikea with me.

That is the nicest school bus conversion I've seen. Top quality design and construction. I wonder what those folks could accomplish in a coach bus conversion?

Thanks for sharing that link, Sam

The uncovered windows let in the light which is nice but you have to be careful what the neighbors can see. I frosted my windows so they let the light in but not prying eyes.

That's a very nice looking bus.  If school buses transistioned to 102" wide bodies and stopped producing the low roof models, they'd be a real contender for a great low cost conversion.  It'd be a medium duty truck conversion instead of a heavy duty class 8, but that would suit many folks just fine.  The cost of upkeep would be hard to beat.

     Yeah, esp. since it doesn't have a 15 gallon bucket for a toilet, it's easy to forget it's a schoolie, isn't it?

that would be  palatial accouterments, many are only 5 gallon with a pool noodle rim..

     As that venerable sage Clifford would say "do it your way"!!

I am a recent composting toilette convert...

I saw a composting toilet that looked like what the Wynns use.  The 15 gallon bucket looked like a shower basin to me.

They still don't ride quite as smooth as a hwy coach. You guys using ikea presswood cabinets...how do you keep them from breaking and coming off the wall?
