The Kitsch-stream – A Retro Airstream Guesthouse 

Enter a delightful time capsule on a serene island in Washington, where Timeless Travel Trailers has debuted a remarkable creation – the Kitsch-stream. This custom 1950s Airstream guesthouse is a journey back in time, exuding the vibrant charm of the mid-20th century.

Exterior: The exterior of the Kitsch-Stream retains the iconic polished aluminum shell with its timeless aerodynamic design, small windows, and classic door. This exterior seamlessly blends the elegance of the 1950s with a touch of modernity, preserving the nostalgic American aesthetic. 

Interior: Step inside, and you’ll be instantly transported to the 1950s. The interior is a vivid tribute to the era, featuring a bold color palette, vintage-inspired details, and meticulously chosen accessories. 

Kitchen: The heart of the Kitsch-stream is its galley kitchen. It boasts terrazzo-style countertops with colorful specks that perfectly complement two-toned blue and white cabinetry. Retro appliances and accessories are thoughtfully selected to create an authentic and harmonious 1950s kitchen experience. The atomic-age Dishmaster faucet is the finishing touch to this charming space. 

Living Space: The lounge area offers a blend of comfort and style with its light-blue upholstery and scalloped tuck and roll backrest. It’s a true blast from the past. Tastefully integrated, a TV discreetly retains the timeless ambiance. The height-adjustable table, with its retro red iced laminate finish, can be lowered to create additional sleeping space, combining relaxation with practicality. 

Hallway: Wander down the hallway adorned with old-school travel maps, adding a touch of nostalgia to your journey. It’s a thoughtful and decorative element reminiscent of a time when the journey itself was as important as the destination. 

Bathroom: The bathroom is a standout feature of the Kitsch-stream. It showcases square blue 1950s-style tiles on the walls and in the shower, creating a bold and lively atmosphere. The teak duckboard shower floor adds a touch of luxury while maintaining the retro feel. 

Bedroom: The bedroom provides a cozy retreat for guests to relax and unwind. A comfortable queen-sized bed takes center stage, complemented by a charming bed skirt and curtains. Ample under-bed storage keeps belongings neatly organized. The two-toned color scheme and blue terrazzo-style counters continue the 1950s theme, ensuring a peaceful night’s sleep.
