A few of the comments on the design website blog also mention that.

The design includes a donut shaped accordion tent that covers the walls and framing.  It's just as private as a tent, or a PopUp!

I believe that it could be done using some very lightweight aerospace materials.  Carbon fiber honeycomb walls and floors, sunbrella tenting with window panels, integrated Thetford potty, simple LED lighting, some folding support poles under the bed, desk,.......etc.

It would probably not be currently affordable using aerospace building techniques and materials.  And, with the axle located on the rear bumper, the tongue weight would probably be about 400 to 500 pounds, (a little more than a mini could handle). :D
