Rolling Out: Airstream Sterling Debuts at RVIA

December 17, 2011 | News

This article is from Airstream’s December Newsletter. For more great Airstream news be sure to check it out.

Airstream announced its expanded product line-up at the 49th annual National RV Trade Show in Louisville, KY.

Airstream Sterling Concept
The Airstream Sterling Concept Trailer, designed by architect Christopher C. Deam, is latest statement from the brand that continues to push the limits of forward-looking design. The collaboration between Airstream and Deam continues the partnership that started more than a decade ago with the 2001 Airstream International CCD. The Sterling Concept captures what is essential about Airstream travel trailers and imparts to it a modern flair.

The most striking design feature of the Sterling Concept trailer is the use of anodized aluminum surfaces for the interior. Deam wanted to bring the unmistakable appearance of the Airstream’s exterior to the interior of the unit and use a premium, lustrous material that provided plenty of light and reflectivity. The aircraft-like aesthetic and modern monocoque design required high precision, resulting in a product that is both aggressively modern and timeless.
