A model called the Bambi, designed in 1960 with Airstream’s distinctive streamlined riveted skin, has been acquired for the museum’s design collection." New York Times >

    75 ANNIVERSARY EDITION COMES TO AIRSTREAM.COM

    Buzz

    Designer David Winick took the lead in creating an interior space that is both ultra modern and retrospective. Natural linoleum in warm tones brings out the highlights of genuine wood veneers. Upholstery inspired by 1940’s tailoring heightens textural contrasts, reflecting in an array of aluminum surfaces. Porthole windows, round vents and yacht-inspired details further integrate the past and future in this very special travel trailer.

    NEW AIRSTREAM BASECAMP

    BuzzAirstream Inc has partnered with Nissan Design America (NDA) and Kelty, producing a lightweight multi-purpose tent-trailer hybrid.

    This stylish trailer, designed to be both low cost and flexible, was the brainchild of NDA aces Bryan Thompson and Steve Moneypenny, who envisioned a travel vehicle that was a springboard for outdoor adventures rather than a living room on wheels.

    The BaseCamp pays homage to Airstream’s past, taking styling and content cues from the original “Torpedo” concept developed by company founder Wally Byam in the 1930’s. The attached tent extension, engineered by outdoor products giant Kelty, provides a lightweight way to double the available living space.

    Ultra-light: most conventional vehicles, with a 2,000 lb gross weight, when fully loaded, can tow Airstream’s BaseCamp.

    Aggressive styling: 20” wheels, wrap-around windows, low profile stance, and Airstream’s trademark aluminum skin give BaseCamp a look like nothing else on the street.

    Just the basics: keeping the weight and price tag down, the BaseCamp is minimally outfitted and the MSRP is expected to remain under $20,000.

    WANDERLUST - AIRSTREAM AT 75 SPECIAL EDITION NOW AVAILABLE!

    Buzz Just in time to celebrate Airstream’s 75th Anniversary, this book covers the history and development of one of America’s distinctive companies.

    Author Russ Banham, with the help of Airstream Historians and founder Wally Byam's family, has set the record straight and debunked many of the inaccuracies perpetuated over the years.

    Ever since Airstream trailers came on the market, these shiny aluminum-skinned bullets have been turning heads. This book includes many historical photos from the Airstream archives, as well as important product details and discussion of the development process from a historical viewpoint as well as the design path used today at Airstream’s headquarters in Jackson Center, Ohio.

    An attractive silver, hardbound coffee table book, Wanderlust makes interesting reading for anyone who owns or dreams of owning an Airstream. Airstream’s evolution is discussed, providing compelling insight into the growth track of this iconic company.

    Get a limited edition Wanderlust book with a specially designed aluminum cover manufactured at the Airstream factory. This version comes with a 75th anniversary DVD and an engraved limited edition number plate. Available only from Airstream.com!

    Original Edition still available.
