Inspired by [AMC's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-scary-movie-6-popcorn) hit television show 'Mad Men,' the Draper RV is a new [tiny home on wheels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomad-tiny-house) meant to look like a shrunken-down version of Don Draper's swanky apartment. Complete with white-washed pine, 10-foot wall ceilings, recessed lighting, and clerestory windows, the Draper RV is clearly focused on luxury, while still catering to the tiny home crowd.

In terms of amenities, the Draper RV comes with a sleeping loft, [walk-in shower](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/felicity-10-wide), a washer and dryer, and even a mud room. The exterior takes on leek angular shapes, meant to evoke the image of mid-century-modern homes. A deck can be lowered on one side of the home, which then exposes a window and gorgeous wooden exterior.
