# House-Like Camps The Safari Tent Provides Enough Room for an Entire Family By Meghan Young | Published 2013-11-01 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/safari-tent References: [uncrate](http://uncrate.com/stuff/safari-tent/) & [barebonesliving](http://www.barebonesliving.com/store/our-products/safari-tent) Described as the 'mother of all tents' on the Barebones Living website, the Safari Tent is quite the creation. It is a house-like camp that looks like the domesticated version of a military headquarter in a war zone. Instead of issuing orders from this safe haven, however, people will be able to recline in the Safari Tent's lap of luxury while enjoying the great outdoors. Offering [120 square feet of floor space](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roofnest-condor-2-xxl-air), the Safari Tent is constructed out of [heavy-duty aluminum and nylon frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gazelle-tents-backcountry-series) and with a [weatherproof Cordura shell](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/expedition-tent) and floor. It is so impressive, the makers even suggest, "tak[ing] up permanent residency at the basecamp of Everest." For the less adventurist, the Safari Tent can be used for more low-key trips. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 93% | Activity: 82% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **House-like Camping:** Innovative camping solutions that provide luxurious accommodations and a sense of home for vacationers. - **Heavy-duty Outdoor Gear:** Durable and weatherproof outdoor equipment that enables people to tackle extreme adventures without worrying about equipment failure. - **Basecamp Residency:** Long-term outdoor living solutions for adventurers looking to establish a permanent or semi-permanent home in remote locations. ### Where This Applies - **Hospitality:** Hotels, lodges, and vacation rental companies can adopt house-like camping solutions to provide guests with unique outdoor experiences. - **Outdoor Gear:** Outdoor gear companies can create innovative, heavy-duty equipment that can withstand even the most extreme outdoor adventures. - **Real Estate:** Real estate companies can explore opportunities to develop basecamp residencies where adventurers can establish a long-term home in remote locations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Frontcountry Hammock Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frontcountry-hammock-tent.md) - [Oversized Family-Friendly Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snow-peak-land-nest-shelter.md) - [Oversized Cave-Like Camping Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heimplanet-cave-xl-tent.md) - [Posh Polyhedral Camping Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tokyo-crafts-grayhus.md) - [Inflatable Four-Season Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-station-pod01.md) - [Durable Outdoor Shelters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/t4-overland-exp-hub.md) - [Angular Multi-Level Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nokken-softshell-tent.md) - [Expansive Multipurpose Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multipurpose-tents.md) - [Four-Season Inflatable Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fourseason-inflatable-tent.md)
