At just 8 meters (26 feet) in length, the Kookaburra boasts an efficiently designed interior that comfortably accommodates two people. It features a spacious, light-filled living area, a complete kitchen, and even a home office. Named after a terrestrial kingfisher known for its unique call, the Kookaburra was created by the Australian company Unplgd Tiny Homes. It is built on a triple-axle trailer and finished with wood and metal accents. An optional large wooden deck enhances its appeal, accessible through double glass doors that seamlessly connect the interior with the outdoors.
