    Nook that fits the Nalagen - wonderful! We use them and what a pain most of the time, nice to not having them rolling around. Great setup for four people, especially adults and a couple kids. Now from the perspective of someone who camps, hikes in, has done full time RV/Van time the storage setup is an issue. While a beautiful setup it is really just a weekender since there is such limited storage (can fit incredibly limited food, clothing, toys). It isn't one that could be lived in full time unless it was one person and they had a lot of baskets/boxes throughout the interior body. Now with the tow package you can pull a trailer for toys or have hitch storage, bike rack, a hitch storage would help compensate for the lack of interior storage.

    Beautiful design! I love the colour scheme, the lights and the little beautifully rounded nooks on the wall and on the side (fitting a Nalgene bottle - wow!). Why switches and readouts are placed within a cupboard always mystifies me. It is widespread, but you can't really use the cupboard as storage. At least, I wouldn't. It would drive me nuts if I always had to remove what I had stored there to get to the switches.

    What I like about it is it would be good for a family. Not much storage but you could have a small trailer for that. Small trips as a family and not cost as much money for a hotel an restaurants. Great ideas you have. Would have loved this when the kids were younger. One thing would be nice is outside lighting and maybe an awning for shade. Also you could do a tub to stand in for shower. So you could bathe the kids more easier. Kids get very dirty at times. Then you could wash clothes easier if you have to. Then you could hang them outside to dry. Good luck!

Are you guys mentally stable?! Using anything other than Bull Oak, Cherimoya, Ebony, Licaria, Breadnut and similar woods... Hell, even Red Oak and Osage are 10 times better than what you guys are using...

    That was the best van OR rv tour I've ever seen in the years I've been watching these things. Besides the awesome design & manifestation of it, your rolling commentary was always coherent, clear, calm and really fun & appealing. And never rushed. Some really great design choices too, like the stucco looking walls and those little arched niches, they give it a nice southwestern feel.
    I wish I could afford this because I would almost buy this van as is. The colors, the textures, all of it. But I would ditch the elevator bed because this van would just be for me & my husband (also more headroom). And I'd probably try for a more robust bathroom thing. But those are design choices, not a criticism. Awesome, awesome video guys!! ❤🌴🌺

    I love your van! My wife and I have decided to do the U-Lounge idea with the elevator bed for our set up as well, but have never seen it done by anyone! We love the versatility it provides! I also love the rooftop deck! You both did a wonderful job designing the layout and didn't forget to add decor niches and shelves. I love the versatility they offer as well, and how well you incorporated them into your design. We will be traveling with our kitties, so incorporating lookout points and hidey holes that also serve as shelves and storage nooks or other multifunctional pieces (not to mention exercise for them, and entertainment for us) will be a "must have" in our design build. I do like how clean your walls look. Ours will look more cluttered and smaller as our shelves will have to stick out for them to use as steps up to the lookout spaces, but your corner shelves have given me some inspirational ideas (worst case, I'm sure they wouldn't mind a planter of catnip, right?)😉🐾 Thank you for sharing this video and your talent in this thoughtful van design. Keep up the great work, but first, enjoy your time off!

    I've been watching a lot of van conversion videos lately and have been making a layout and design in my head. This is almost exactly what was in my head. The only thing I would add is a permanent shower, but that's obviously very much up to personal preference. Perfect video!

  • @280Zombie

    Randomly watching like 2 hours of high-end over the top van builds, and then I stumble upon you guys with some really nice innovations not seen in the high dollar builds. Your hinged table that converts perfectly into a secondary bed is brilliant. And I really like your bathroom solution as well. Naysayers can kick rocks. That really leaves things more open and adds a secondary utility when not in use. Bravo! One critique is that I would ditch the secondary van seats for something more homey.. maybe bench seating with underneath storage, but to each their own. Inspirational build!

    It's very nice! I think I would only add a couple of things. Pull down shades for the windows at night. Some type of screen and shade for the back window. For myself, I've never liked bunk beds. 'Always was afraid of the top bunk crashing onto the bottom. 'Love the shower and commode, and shelf for the water bottle. It's all very well designed and pretty!

    I actually like this shower. It does open the space and allows for more air flow to combat mold.
    Love the elevator bed over the seating area.
    The seating area that converts to a large bed is a plus.
    I personnal would add two things.
    A two burner cook top.
    And, another Lagoon table up front.
    Perfection. 😊
    Great job
