From the home front: Shelter on wheels, from the BikeRV to the Mehrzeller ...

While some of our readers may prefer a more rustic touch, many modern greenies don't want to sacrifice style and comfort for their environmental sensibilities. In which case, the Mehrzeller is right up their alley. Resembling a network of cells on wheels, this contemporary caravan by NONSTANDARD has a clean and angular interior. And best of all, digital software allows buyers to tweak the design in accordance with their own needs.

Gypsy wagon: This attractive home on wheels, all of 160 square feet small and tucked in a cedar forest in British Columbia, takes the form of a traditional gypsy wagon, or vardo, with artsy details such as skylights and a round window. It cost about $8,000 to build and sits atop a 5-ton truck chassis bought for $100 from a wrecking yard. The little home is made partly of recycled and salvaged materials, such as the 1970s picnic table used for a round window and the shingles that are made from guitar-top seconds.
