Project Idea: The Path to a Wandering Home

An unexpected hero once stated: 'You must be imaginative, strong-hearted. You must try things that may not work, and you must not let anyone define your limits because of where you come from.' Inspired by the words that empowered a rat to cook, so shall Domovago be built.

From Idea to Blueprint

The Domovago is a conceptual mobile living solution designed to redefine personal space and freedom. It’s envisioned as a self-sufficient, versatile structure that allows a new kind of nomadic lifestyle, blending the comforts of a permanent home with the flexibility of a mobile one. The Domovago is not just a dwelling; it is a platform where every aspect of living is considered to be in harmony with the environment and personal needs. 

Affordability is a core pillar of the project, aiming to make the freedom of a mobile lifestyle accessible to a wider audience. The design process emphasizes adaptability and extensive customization, allowing the solution to be precisely tailored to specific needs. A timeless design, not tied to fleeting trends, instead focuses on long-lasting functionality and aesthetic harmony. More about the spirit behind the vision can be found in The Journey Begins.

The Process: From Research to Design

The research phase for the Domovago project is a multidisciplinary journey, employing a holistic approach that draws from a wide array of fields. This process involves a deep dive into the history of mobile living, nomadic cultures, and the principles of sustainable architecture, alongside exploring the latest advancements in technology and materials. 

The research is centered on how a mobile living solution can be designed to support and enhance human life on Earth, considering our relationship with the natural world and our impact on it.

Facing the Unknown

The ambition to create something truly new, like the Domovago, inevitably leads to the unknown. In this process, the careful sourcing and verification of information is paramount, as is the understanding that mistakes are not failures but essential opportunities for learning and growth. The project itself is treated as a “sandbox,” a safe space where diverse ideas can be tested, pushed to their limits, and refined. This approach allows for the exploration of unconventional paths and the challenging of established norms, ensuring that the final solution is not only innovative but also robust and well-considered.
