Michael Talley is a graphic designer living in Texas. He paid a lot of money every month for rent, but he finally got enough of this and started to work on something that would change his life forever. He came up with the idea of transforming an old school bus into his permanent home. He never built anything like this before, so it sure wasn’t easy, but the result speaks for itself. Look at how the bus looks like after the transformation!
Why did he come up with this idea in the first place?
Michael was paying $1,200 for rent in a month. That’s a lot of money that could have been spent on more important things. He got fed up with his situation and started to think about the solution.
Building a tiny home
He decided that he’ll try to build a tiny home for himself. That’s when the idea of the school bus popped into his mind. It already has four walls and a roof, so it couldn’t be hard to transform it to a liveable place. At that time he didn’t know how big this project was, especially because he was a graphic designer and didn’t know how to use power tools.
