Elegant and spacious RAM ProMaster conversion: a stealthy van to live in a city

  • Percy knew exactly what he wanted and trusted us to build his RAM ProMaster to his taste. The aesthetic was extremely important to Percy since the van was going to be his new home to live in town. This was a very fun project where we used some elements that already featured in our previous vans (such as the bamboo, the birch, the marine hatches) but also added new things like vinyl tiles moss!
    This van does not have a shower because Percy can shower everyday at work but does feature a toilet and a heater.
    For more information and photos please visit our website www.bespoke-creations.net.
    Fridge: Dometic CDF18
    Toilet: Urine separator for composting toilet from the Free Range Designs
    Battery: AGM Lifeline 125Ah
    Skylight: Bomar marine hatch, low profile series
    Stove: Origo alcohol stove
    Solar panel: 2 x 100W Sunpower
    Heater: Eberspaecher Airtronic

    I absolutely LOVE the Crate idea. Something similar is going in my build. I love the Cedar. I heard it's lightweight and I love the look of unfinished bare wood. It's beautifully crafted! The table on the wall idea is another genius idea and the smaller bed than the usual build. I'm certainly keeping this idea in mind to give my van more functional counter space.

    Your work looks excellent, high quality. Really beautiful and seems very well thought out.
    I particularly liked the extra effort you took to hide all the wires and cables. Very professional.
    I liked the little hanging table, great feature!
    Especially liked the hidden solar panels. So often that spoils the look of these van conversions.
    Excellent work!

    I lived in a van some 20 years ago. It was for almost 18 months. I had a mattress on a simple frame, bedding, hygiene products in hanging storage bag, clothes in a duffle bag, with a few hooks for my coat and heavier items, a cooler and I used the local 24/7 gym to shower and use their restroom. I had 2 bins, 1 had medications, personal items and a few this or thats. The second had work related items. I did have a camping shower and a bucket (seat, with shavings in a plastic bag) for emergency situations. I ate my hot meals at work. Van conversion is great, if it's done simply. A headlamp and flashlight for lighting. Kept it simple. Many I see are overdone just to be overdone.

      @@k.pacificnw02134 personally I agree with you-although urban van dwelling can be a bit of a concrete overload so I understand when people insist on live plant passengers. Also moss walls like this one are typically dried and treated, so no mess or spores to worry over.

      @@emersauce Agreed. I would like 1 or 2 potted live plants inside my van. Not faux ones. Mainly the issue to me is it takes up precious square inches. Every inch of a van (that you're going to live in) has to be useful, not decorative. I mean the built in parts. You can bring in decor, but anything installed should have a purpose.
