Vagabond Vans: Luxury Mobile Architecture by Andreas Stricker

Founded in 2021 by Andreas Stricker in Bad Tölz, Germany, Vagabond Vans transforms the concept of vanlife into an experience of luxurious mobile architecture. The company specializes in creating custom vehicles based on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis and collaborates with brands like Louis Poulsen, Neolith, Rohi, and Bolon. In 2023, it was awarded Van Builder of the Year. Each year, a city-inspired concept van is unveiled; for 2024, the VABO Vision Milano was launched at Milan Design Week, highlighting Italian traditions. Stricker focuses on architectural design, tactile elements, and working closely with clients. Over 55 vehicles have been crafted, and owners convene yearly at the VABO Home for the VABO Circle. Stricker envisions a vehicle in pure monochrome, appealing to clients who desire consistent luxury rather than conventional vanlife.
