Foster Huntington | Home Is Where You Park It | (US) | By Lee Fleming

One of the most recent publications to be added to the IDMC° bookcase is Home Is Where You Park It, a photographic exploration from photographer and nomad Foster Huntington. After the first 2000 copies sold out immediately and proved immensely popular, Huntington released a much anticipated second edition of his photo series.

In 2011, Foster Huntington left his dream job designing for Ralph Lauren, packed up and drove out of New York City in a VW Vanagon in order to travel around North America. With eighty thousand miles on his camper, Huntington lives a self-contained and spontaneous life, covered in detail on his popular daily blog A Restless Transplant, a journal that documents fellow travellers and their campers of all shapes and sizes.

Under the #vanlife hashtag, Huntington uploads his shots to Instagram and gives a personal insight into the campers, people and stories that inspire him on a daily basis. Before long #vanlife grew into a photography project, funded through a successful Kickstarter campaign, that highlights his favourite camper vans, pickup trucks and the unpredictable delights of life. Designed by New York-based Doubleday & Cartwright, who are also responsible for the Victory Journal, Home Is Where You Park It is a 125-page photography book dedicated to life on the road, steeped in the ‘keep on Trucking’ nostalgia of the 1970s.
