NIght MArket Hot Tub TRuck

For the Lost Horizon Night Market I created the infamous Hot Tub Truck; an entire moving truck converted into a hot tub. I created the truck to bring the social bathing experience I had in Kinosaki Japan to New York City. I made the truck 4 times; learning and developing the idea with each iteration. The last time I made the truck it was built out of a 26 foot Penske moving truck with over 3,000 gallons of water and a max capacity of 50 people. I successfully kickstarted the project. In addition to designing the easiest way to make a truck into a tub I also engineered the mobile water heating solution (including tapping fire hydrants for a water source anywhere we went) and designed the user flow for the changing room (in a separate truck).
