I can appreciate the Nicole Curtis personal touch on this design, well done! I’m a bit antiquated and like the sound of boot hills on a distressed wood floor. I would have went with a light gray wall paint and rustic electrical conduit, for that industrial look. I run a stack for my appliances. . .a below storage cabinet for the crockpot, the air fryer on top, a Coleman stove flush with the counter and a mounted mini microwave above that . . .thus saving space and eliminating the bulky oven and full size microwave.
I also run a mini fridge/freezer, which would stack on top of the washer/dryer combo, saving more space and eliminating the full size fridge.
I would also remove the container end doors and install an aluminum grated draw bridge-type air shock lift, that doubles as a door ramp patio and/or roof lift.
The saved space of the full size appliances, gives me closet space on the backside of the shower.
I keep the living room/office area opened up for configuration, with a wet/food bar overlooking an open bar shutter (planning ahead for deck docking), with the office area at my back.
This open area allows for sun roof storage of patio furniture when in transportation mode.
I would also run a carpeted truck vault below the bed for safe storage, thus lowering the bed level.
Matching window above the desk.
