Two American design icons converge with the new Airstream Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian Limited Edition Travel Trailer – from the instantly recognizable look of Airstream’s rounded, riveted travel trailers to Frank Lloyd Wright’s unparalleled approach to American architecture. 

After 20 years on the drawing board, the travel trailer has debuted, and it’s an Airstream unlike anything ever produced by this 94-year-old American brand. Featuring Airstream’s iconic, rounded, riveted aluminum shell exterior and a stunning interior inspired by the work of unparalleled architect Frank Lloyd Wright, this new 28-foot travel trailer is a testament to the best of American design. Airstream’s handmade craftsmanship and Wright’s distinct and intrinsic touchstones manifest in convertible features, narrow passageways that open to expansive interior spaces, and a beautiful blend of interior and exterior.

Blending Wright’s organic architecture with Airstream’s iconic form, the celebration of American design features a rear hatch that opens to nature; convertible living spaces; Taliesin red badging; and handcrafted details like the Gordon Leaf Pattern. 

The trailer is thoughtfully designed with dual-purpose elegance woven throughout. Twin beds glide into a king, the dinette and desk fold seamlessly into custom cabinetry, and the sofa converts into a serene secondary place to sleep - each adapting seamlessly from day to night, work to rest.

With 28 windows and a glass central skylight, natural light floods the interior, creating a bright, airy space that connects to the surrounding landscape. The abundance of natural light enhances the overall ambiance, making the interior feel more spacious and inviting. The windows and skylight also provide stunning views of the outdoors. Blending mid-century style with modern space-saving function. Wright-inspired chairs and a collapsible stool maximize space by tucking neatly into a wall cabinet. 

Only 200 units of this Limited Edition Airstream will be produced over the next two years, with orders now being taken by dealers. Pricing starts at $184,900.
