The mobile unit has a mirrored aesthetic and belongs to a tech entrepreneur who frequently changes location and enjoys spending time in the depths of nature. The Airstream office has been named 'Kugelschiff' — which from German translates to bullet ship, and provides a highly versatile and state-dependent environment for its owner. Moreover, the trailer also hints to adventurous attitudes with strong feelings of nostalgic comfort from the 1960s. The Airstream office boasts "an ultra-condensed environment with a heightened level of precision" that will allow the owner to work distraction-free and move in search of inspiration.
