  • We converted our Fiat Ducato into a Tiny House on wheels! It includes a full bathroom (with recirculating shower), a murphy bed, a motorcycle carrier and more!
    I had a lot of fun designing this van conversion! It turned out that for our specific needs, this unique layout was the best fit. Let me know what you think!

      *Newly Updated Safety Suggestions;
      I just happened to see your channel, and others similar channels recently, and I think that you, and others sharing their actual reality, and some have expressed some of the up, and down sides to van, RV, or vehicle living.
      Although, I just noticed your RUclips channel, and other similar channels, displaying van living.
      I just wanted to remind everyone to Aware Be of your surroundings and Alert, I just posted this anyway to help anyone who may benefit from these suggestions
      I believe that it is very helpful, and beneficial to others who may be thinking about this type of living without actually thinking through, about the some of the realistic problems that could occur with vehicle or van living etc...
      People need to know what up sides there are, as well as some of the down sides of vehicle living.
      I believe this channel, and other channels have been informative to others, including myself.
      Although, I am NOT living in a vehicle or anything like this.
      I feel that you , and others RUclipsrs sharing this with your viewers will be very helpful.
      I wish you ALL the Best with your traveling endeavors.
      I shared this with several other travelers, as I watched their RUclips channel for the first time, as yours, and I shared with them this information that may be helpful to you as well to others.
      Therefore, I would also like to suggest a few Safety tips, and items that may help you, or others in your viewing audience.
      Although, you may have knowledge of this already,
      I am not sure, so I hope this will be helpful to you, others or someone.
      *Keep a Extra working cellphone with you or in your vehicle.
      You can purchase inexpensive phone with a very low monthly price between 25, 35, 45, dollars a month with unlimited data and text, and some have Nationwide coverage
      Do your research for the best fit for you
      Carry Several Extra portable phone chargers, and cables.
      Consider theses items:
      *Mini portable power charging station.
      I have also seen outdoor portable solar powered power stations, that can be recharged from sunlight this may be very useful to have, to power your devices.
      *Invest in a Cellular signal booster for outdoor use, and camping situations to boost or amplify your cell signal and reception.
      Consider also the purchase of a WiFi signal booster to also boost your WiFi signal.
      Research to see what you prefer.
      *Very Inportant:
      Invest in a SOS distress electronic signal device, this a kind of device can send out a distress signal with your exact location.
      There are various types of these devices, and including devices that can be used when boating, or camping situations.
      *Some have emergency Strobe lights SOS signaling with location alerts, and location updates that can be sent to your family, and emergency first responders.
      Some can be synchronized with your smart watch or phone.
      There are some satellite SOS texting messaging, locator devices that will send messages with your phone even if there isn’t any cellular signal, or WiFi. With this device your can still text, and communicate with others in a emergency satellite transmission.
      Check online, for various emergency SOS products, some are small to fit in the palm of your hand.
      You can check online, and on Amazon, research what SOS devices will be a good fit for you.
      *Mini portable vehicle battery jumper charger
      *vehicle battery jumper cables
      *Vehicle Jumper cables
      *Keep a Fire extinguisher handy
      Smoke detectors and Carbon monoxide detectors can be helpful
      *Mounted Dashboard camera front and rear possibly.
      Exterior vehicle cameras
      Interior vehicle cameras
      *Flashlights or pluggin spotlights
      *Portable spotlights, and lanterns
      Keep a few whistles around with you, and in your vehicle possibly in your vehicle’s center console
      *A set of long range 2 way radios, walkie talkies, to communicate with others during trips, some have 100 mile radius keep for emergencies.
      Use your own discretion regarding the use of any weapons.
      Don’t forget to bring
      Bear Spray
      Pepper spray
      Where is allowed
      If you own a drone you can use it to survey your area for animals etc.
      However, Please Be Safe and Beware of your Surroundings.
      Stay Alert, and Be Safe even when stopping at Rest stops, Truck Stops, and conducting your various tasks.
      Keep in often contact with your family, friends etc.
      Keep up with the latest Weather Updates, beware and prepare for unexpected Weather events and conditions.
      Keep your vehicle gas filled
      Don’t chance your Safety by running your vehicle fuel or gas too close to Empty.
      Fill it up anyway, it will save you alot of time, and headache later on.
      Remember to keep up on routine maintenance, check your tires for wear, keep up with your fluids for your vehicle, like oil levels, washer fluid, brake fluid, antifreeze.
      Remember Because you are on the road riding for sometimes very long distances, and long periods of time, I would suggest investing in 2 sets of tires, and a spare, the extra set to rotate.
      Check the mileage ratings on your tires they all very.
      Conduct visual inspections of your tires often, check for damage, wearing, air pressure, etc
      Keep a pressure gauge to check your tires pressure and a tire pump.
      Keep towing, road assistance, hazard insurance to Be Safe if you ever need it for a vehicle break down.
      It Doesn’t cost much try to get National coverage if available, or where you will be traveling.
      Keep Extra financing, and savings for any unexpected issues, vehicle repairs, and overnight stays, in a emergency or if you need to rest indoors.
      Keep Enjoying Yourself,
      Keep Enjoying the outdoors, and Nature
      Just..Please continue to
      Be Positive, Safe, and Alert..
      Wishing Success, Well-being and Happiness You All.
      God Bless You, and everyone
      Traveling, or living in their vehicles, Vans, RVs, etc.
      Please Be Safe.....
      God Be With You...

      The lack of a window on the wall by the bed is a bit claustrophobic. Two vent-windows in the ceiling and a window on the door, there seems to be too little daylight. But that's just my opinion or impression of the film. In fact, it may be different. Anyway, beautiful, minimalist interior. Way to go.

    Honestly one of the best, if not THE BEST van builds I've seen so far. And I've seen A LOT.
    As an architect myself, I really enjoy how every design-choice in this van has a purpose. It's a great inspiration for my own build.

    • @deborahcurtis1385
      @deborahcurtis1385 5 месяцев назад

      It is excellent but clearly they are using this for weekends rather than full time living which requires different functionalities. So the storage space has been sacrificed along with depth in bench tops. Also the very straight angles and lack of depth in the couch space would be an issue for me it's too much like being in a waiting room or a change room. Where do you put your clothes and shoes? You could solve some of it with slide-out-and-up bench extensions. For their purpose it's so creative and I love the adoption of hight tech and sensible solutions like the water recycling UV treatment and the use of pool paint. It meets their brief visually and functionally including to keep it simple and unrestricted but it's definitely not for full time living.

    The designer has such a high level of skill that she should definitely set up a business designing, and possibly building, similar vans, as the build quality was superb too.

    over many years of watching van builds and videos, it is hard to be impressed by a layout and design choises, but this is easily the best, most clever and most beautiful conversion i have ever seen. the 5° angle is genious, its incredible how spacious you make it feel.
    Im currently also converting a van, and will also have a murphy bed, its a shame we don't see them more often! I can only dream to have it become close to as beautiful as yours :) good travels!

    I also watched your time lapse video and I'm glad to see that you are receiving overwhelmingly positive comments because I think your design is groundbreaking and beautiful in its simplicity. I hope you are ignoring the ones that say "you should have put in more windows" or "I hate the Murphy bed" or "why is the kitchen in the back?" Simple answer to any of these questions is that this design works for the two of you and that is ALL that matters. Personally, if you ever offered scale drawings of this design, along with a materials list, and a diagram or two for electrical and plumbing, I'd buy them in a heartbeat. Congrats and kudos to you both for this incredible DIY build. I only wish I was half so brilliant and capable! I hope you have amazing travels in this beautiful design that is all that it needs to be and nothing more for YOU, regardless of what anyone else thinks..

    @thekarmicbrat Год назад +1

    This is by far the best van design I've ever seen. The fact that there's open space near the entrance instead of a big kitchen cabinet sells the place. The kitchen itself is a bit tiny, namely the prep space, but the fact that you've managed to squeeze a shower and toilet, a small wardrobe all that in the back of the van is incredible. For some people it's a sacrifice of the back doors which is essential for views, but to me the smart use of the space replaces that. You could use more windows, but overall, what a great van conversion.

  • @exploringlife738

    Your van design is so advanced and desirable that I would think we'd soon hear that you are considering making this a full-time career and starting a company to either customize or generate specific models of it. The only things I'd hope to change in basic terms are converting to solar/electric, a small microwave instead of burners, and a little bigger fridge - heaven!

      How does it help with security? Don't people usually break into the back anyway since that's where the valuables are? I'd think a curtain would do the same job but give you extra space + allow you to use the chairs if you put them on swivels. I'm still in the very early planning phase though, so would love to hear your thoughts :)

I drive a Fiat 500 pop and it gets fantastic gas mileage. Safe travels.

    I can't count how many times I've been absorbed watching this. There are dozens of van videos out there, but I keep coming back to yours... no doubt that is because your solutions to fitting all of your required features for van life are done - not just practically - but with flair and style. You have 'ticked my boxes' - including a murphy bed, a decent closet, comfortable seating, and a pass-through to the cab. Your attention to detail is remarkable, right from inception. Adding that angle changed the whole concept from utilitarian to elan. Everything is clean - spotlessly so - and finished carefully. It does look to me, though, that this isn't the van to live in full-time... probably not enough storage for everyday living. I hope I'm wrong!
    If there were one thing I would do, were I to emulate your concept, it would be to have an electric water heater, as it is smaller... that would free up more storage at the rear. And, I'd go one step further, because I'd also want to keep that bathroom... although, while I'd have the toilet where you have it located I'd store it in its own 'nook', sitting on a slide-out so that the 'wasted' area above it could be made into storage space accessible from the rear. The bathroom would still function with a decent shower stall, just a little more compact.
    I do hope you have many lovely years of enjoyment in it after all your hard work! Make us some videos of your adventures....

    Just a 5deg angle really changes things! So smart! I didn’t notice in the time lapse build video. Really beautiful. I would live to see some details on the murphy bed hinge, latch and support. Thanks for making this video.

    A well thought out layout.
    This isn't the only area of brilliance, the design choice from colour, lighting and multi-purpose items clearly shows how you are a innovative top designer.

    I frequently see claims of a unique layout but this is the first time I’ve seen a van tour that really is something I have never seen before! I love it! About the only change I’d want is an incinerator toilet so I wouldn’t have to deal with cassettes or a black tank. If I had any other suggestion it would be to attach a cushion that matches the cushion on the bench to the lid of the hamper since you use it for additional seating when you have extra guests.

    This is it! I've been looking van design alternatives on youtube for 6 months and tons of different videos and that's it.
    That's the one i've been looking for and only one that place kitchen backside of the van for maximum space and minimum plumbing. Less plumbing, less wiring minimal design and lot's of emtpy space for other stuff. Thank's for insprations for van build.

    Fantastic design and layout. This is one of the most clever layouts I've seen on a Van, if not the best. You get multi use function build in without sacrificing necessities like kitchen, bathroom, storage, etc. Very nice. And your magnetic key hanger was cool. If you wanna take this design and layout to the absolute max, swap your lagoon table for a no stow away folding table as seen in the Hymer Visionventure Prototype.No lifting and carrying table around anymore.

  • @blairstonehouse

    Wow...simply, WOW!
    By far the most brilliant van design I have ever seen. So many clever ideas and well planned use of space. You created an open feel, without compromising functionality. And the finish is next level! You have changed the game....many builders will be taking ideas from your innovation for years to come.
    Well done. I look forward to seeing your next creation.

    This is such a clever design. My list of requirements is exactly the same as yours so I am very impressed to see you have incorporated all of those features whilst retaining a light and spacious interior. I’m surprised we don’t see more roller shutter back doors as it is a great idea when you have a motorcycle carrier on the back. I hope you enjoy many adventures in your lovely van.

    • @alanhat5252
      @alanhat5252 8 месяцев назад

      Roller doors are draughty & incredibly noisy (moving or stationary), plus the roll & often the frame take up more than a fair amount of valuable space.

    Some people think that the van has to be long, but long is heavy and difficult to park and less agility.
    Love your work.
    Clever design
    Good appliances and fuel, fossil fuels are high density energy. And cheap.
    Wonderful feeling.
    The great outdoors is just out doors, Hahaha.
    You don't have to bring them indoors into your sheltered retreat.
    Great feelings. 😊😊😊😊😊

      I agree with you. Even in houses I never understood tons of huge windows. I'd place the few windows I would have strategically where it counts. My eyes can see the views out of small windows for light and air. I can always go outside. And fewer windows save on heating and cooling and the expense of building.

    I've been fulltiming in Sprinter vans the last 11 years and you're incorporated several features I've used or planned for my next conversion. The most important takeaway for me was the linearity concept. I may be able to use that. Congratulations on incredible attention to detail.

    I spend a lot of time searching for layout with bed in advanced position, cause my project have this solution and i like it very much. But i tought: "If no one build van with this layout maybe something is wrong with me and my project..." Never be so happy to see your van realization, cause confirm my ideas are quite good (my father was an architect, maybe it is somenthing in the DNA). Saying that, your style, the choice of the colour, the minimalism and streamlined ideas of your van are really really gorgeous, i appreciate a lot! Applause :)

  • @psychedelicpegasus7587
    @psychedelicpegasus7587 11 месяцев назад +1

    Brava! This is a wonderfully functional design. You have created a calming, stylish space, and it's most impressive that you didn't have to make compromises. In the timelapse video, I noted that you did say adding the side window would have an impact on stealthing, but with what looks like a tinted window and the inner curtains it is perfect. Even if someone was to get a glimpse just from the door, I don't think they would imagine a full size bed could appear! The drop down table with shoe storage is a master stroke, and I love that the removable table top is on a swivel. Wonderful work, well done.

    This is by far one of the nicest van conversions I've ever seen. If you only filmed the inside, and didn't mention it was a van, I would have thought it was a nicely done up, small Japanese apartment. (I actually lived in an apartment in Japan not much bigger, and nowhere near as nice). The design and functionality of this van is just great. I'd love to have one like this to take on a road trip.

    This is absolutely incredible, I'm a stubborn guy and wanted to make everything to come from my own thoughts of design which I modelled already.
