Your cardboard models are a game-changer. You can walk in and feel the space. Even in sketch up, you would miss the claustrophobic feel of the dinette, but moving the dresser down and losing the hanging space made a HUGE difference in the ambiance and enjoyability of the dining area. I like learning about all the thought, care, and ingenuity behind your designs.
Your videos are second to none! Your emphasis on serviceability and recognition that things do break are confidence inducing if I were having you make a van for me. Lastly, your ability to communicate in an entertaining and educating way makes me think that you could take this show to PBS or HGTV. Well done, I will not miss a video.
Loving all the design challenges this van build has. The solutions are innovative. You've inspired me to make cardboard mockups for my 2001 PleasureWay upgrades.
Rearranging the fridge / wet bath cabinets and the armoire is a genius move. Looks fantastic. Like you said, you can mount a short hanging bar at the top of the fridge cabinet with enough length / strength to hang a few items, say maybe a couple of coats or something. Really nice. It would also be super-easy to put a typical "stretchy string" hanger across the shower enclosure to dry towels, etc. between showers and visits to the bathroom.
Another great video.....moving that icebox and losing the clothes-hanging capability changes everything. It creates an entirely different vibe in that van. Although it’s ultimately up to the owner, I know what I’d do. I can roll my clothes all day long, and I don’t need them hung.
You may be the best custom van builder (I don't want to offend any other of the group of best builders). But you are definitely the best card board builder (and I'm willing to offend other builders with that claim).
I think I'd slam the fridge up against the bed, the bath and armoire up against the fridge, and have all the seating/tables/candelabras up front. But wft do I know? Nutn'! Love the vid, as usual.
A lot of effort for the cardboard build, but it pays off a hundred times. Great work! For the bed, if you just slide the folded part over the fixed part (on rails at the sides), you have only two pieces. And you get even more open room, you can lay your arm onto the fixed part of the bed.
You could regain your hanging closet with your "Swinging Shower Closet" setup. Loving the cardboard layout. Really gives you an idea of what it's going to be like to live in.
Looking great George! I would build the dining area on a platform. Less claustrophobic, more storage under the platform and no need for stairs to the bed 🤗
The second floor plan makes for a very livable space. Its less dark and depressing, no canyon effect, more open space, very cozy with a lamp on the nightstand. Superb idea, George! I would also go with a swingout hanging closet for bathroom for some clothes storage. Use an 80/20 carcass with frosted plexiglass inserts for walls and some colored LEDs inside for a night glow. LED colors can be changed at will for different lighting effects. This way you create a light box in the passage. Instead of a hard wall, why not a fold-in, fold-out curtain rod with a nice curtain. This is similar to Extend-A-Rod commercial ones but will be made to spec by you. Fairly simple construction. Swing out closet, fold out curtain for a spacious shower with more elbow room than the footprint. Alternately, maybe use a spring for a curtain rod that attaches to back of closet, so when closet is pulled out, shower curtain also pops out. With regard to medicine cabinet, I have a hare-brained idea. How about a sunken storage box built into the sink counter activated by linear actuators, like the old Airstream sunken coffee makers. Press on the cutout on counter, and out pops a small medicine cabinet. The other option is to attach it to the plexiglass closet back end.
Options, options, options. Love it! If it were me I would lose the upper cabinet and gain the elbow room. That leaves so many options for above the seat, a book case, an above head cabinet, tv, ... I love watching a movie from bed and that would be my personal choice. I’m always in awe of how much thought goes into your builds. Looking foreword to seeing more and what the owners choose for their design.
So many of your subs comment that your cardboard mock ups look better than fully built vans. I agree!!! Absolutely beautiful! Btw, I almost spit out my coffee in the very beginning of video with your sound effects. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I always wonder how claustrophobic people get in the vans with all the floor to ceiling built-ins and narrow aisles. It is great that you can design to the owners requests. After a few years in the van I think a lot of folks might trade their big refrigerator, closet, and permanent shower stall for an open airy space. With your ingenuity, I'd love to see a van with a shower in the aisle when needed and other tricks to maximize open space. My shower is just as you step in the slider but noone can see it when stowed. It takes one minute to set up. To each his own, I'm sure they will love your build. Your engineering is amazing.
George, An idea for more space. Position / use of the toilet. In the shower area, on the large hinged box, split the door at the lower edge if the existing box. Build a separately hinged 8020 box frame below to duplicate the upper frame, hinging on the same corner,, but leave the face nearest the rear of the van (closed position) open. Latch the two doors, frames, together. Place the toilet in the lower box frame, facing rear of van. Shower use: As before, but the toilet box swings out with the large box, latched together? (Upper frame helps support the toilet box) Toilet use: Open as for shower use, but unlatch, leaving the lower "toilet box" in the shower area, user sits facing the rear. Base of the toilet box frame rests on shower tray when in use. Advantages(?) Allows use of privacy/ shower curtain if required. No "momentum" issue. Allows shower unit to move forwards, or hanging space between box and driver seat. Use a lift up work table? Drivers seat can be swiveled, then slid towards front of the van for work use. Since toilet "shoulder width" isn't required, this could give maybe 12"+ of extra space? Hope this makes sense.
A great thing about the cardboard mock-ups is that you can build a design library. Once you've done a few vans and have those mock-ups folded away on a shelf, it would be easy and quick for future clients to put together a layout from components you have already done and walk thru it.
We all bring too much stuff & plan B definitely opens up the space & provides a nice end table. The cardboard build is a fantastic way to let the creative juices/critical thinking prosper in a physical form & will greatly enhance the end results. Sláinte
George as a finish carpenter I used to get paid a lot for cardboard mock ups, Once we did the tv at the end of the bed that comes up out the cabinet, Even made a remote for the client while we would lift it up and down, we forgot to lift it up when he asked us and he said is there something wrong, I told him maybe the battery's in the remote have gone, his answer was never mind just get some for next time LOL. great work keep it up,
Very well thought out. I like the version without the hanging space, if the space is factored in then it becomes usable only for that. If you really had to hang something like a suit eg. I’m sure it could be found even temporarily on a wall somewhere. All the best. rab
I enjoy your videos. I have a PleasureWay Ascent and "solved" the hanging clothes issue by putting an expanding clothes rod in the bathroom. That space is usually not use as much and clothes can be push toward wall or temporarily removed for bathroom or shower use. Works for me. You do great work.
I love this idea of using card board cut outs first! Genius! I would like to see a different kind if layout. Rather than the normal. Like, put the kitchen on the end, and the bed room/ living room, behind the seats. Leaving the middle for maybe a bathroom.
Noted! While doing contract builds, I build the floor plan most appropriate to the client objectives. I listen. And I listen some more. And even more! In spec builds, I can build whatever my peabrain comes up with! And I will! Stay tuned.
George, as always outstanding design ideas, agreed with you hanging clothes are a no-no in a van, they way to go is to rolled them in nice basket drawers...bring your marine skills and design the wet bath like a yacht
Fantabulous 3D presentation of the plan.. if ever thought about wanting to buy a motorhome i had immediaeltey made my decision to buy just by seeing such models
I’d like to see a unit built where the partial bed (those two moving sections for instance) fold up into a couch with steps up and removable tables then swing in. Then you don’t need both seats. This is still another very thought out build. I love your explanations and discussion for options. It’s like listening to you think. Cheers.
You might be interested in how Eamon and Bec vandwellers designed their transformable bed to couch mode by putting piano hinges at end of raised front-to-back bed to drop down and make side-to-side seating.
Some of those pull out coat hooks along the fridge wall would give the option to hang a few items when needed. That would solve the hanging clothes issue for me.
Love the cardboard mock up, its a must for quality build like yours I reckon. I'd vote for option 2. More space more light. If customer needs formal atire while travelling, would a very thin floating wardrobe fit above the armoire. Without spoiling feeling of space How about a floating and sliding lagun table, where the pivot is hidden under the bed somehow with a latch under the tabletop to allow it to slide on the mount work.
I love this floor plan! Great job. I’d love to see some of your ideas for a rear bath. I’m one of those weirdos that wants a huge bathroom, even in a van!
For those who must have hanging clothes, a bar in the shower works great. Or one of those plug looking things like hotels put on the back of doors (think pipe with a stopper on the unattached end and can hold 3 - 5 shirts) put on the fridge's side panel towards the dining 'room', would also work.
@@MrJFoster1984 Nope. You direct air into that space. If you have a diesel heater you also put air in there... Every van imho should have a wetroom with drying capability,.
New subscriber here and I am so fascinated with your constructions! You are truly a master builder. I would rather watch your channel than most on RUclips .

Love the way you block these out. If I might suggest you are missing an opportunity with your bed bulkhead. When folded up it is lost living space. Rather than hide the mattress you could have it fold back and convert to an elevated couch/lounging area. Having A place to really kick back and relax during the day in a van is a luxury we'd all like to have.
@@HumbleRoad possibly.... with a good memory foam mattress I am not sure it would matter, and the trade off would be 1000% worth it. We use our elevated couch a ton as a place to relax. I have my bed motorized, which admittedly might not work quite as well in a van, and just ran a small cinch strap over the mattress to help it bend. Even with the strap we dont even notice it - though in our case it runs between the two of us. It's all out of 8020. here are some links. I hope it's ok. not trying to hijack your page. I cover the bed in a couple different spots in my admittedly less professional tour than yours.:D ruclips.net/video/YaqGEqUjkBo/видео.html ruclips.net/video/YaqGEqUjkBo/видео.html love your design process.
I would take the van build with cardboard already. That’s how good you are. Lol. Have you thought about putting a Lagun table at the end of the bed as a dining table between the two seats. It can swivel out of the way as needed.
George A "normal" slide out table, but with a detent 6"-12" from full extension to allow egress without losing all the crockery. Dropping the galley would help as well.
i like the last layout yet being a technical guy ? /// you can put vacuum bags to use as a space saver to compress there close suctioned cuped to one of the restroom walls . when thay wont to get close thay just have to brake suction . zip the bag back up and vacuum .. just a thought .. to help.
Hi George, I have been thinking alot since I started watching your videos ... my design concept would make use of the two chairs in the front, put them on a swivel and make a nice big desk/table (like in the last build) between those seats. In combination with a curtain (light and heat insulation) which goes from the sidewindows to the frontwindow you gain a lot more room. On top I´d opt for a bathroom solution (the one with the open bathroom and curtains) like you already build once. This opens everything up. Let me know what you think about it ;-) Stay save / healthy! Btw the Advanced RV solution with the expendable shower curtain might also be an option for your clients

Your attention to detail, patience and cardboard creation is genius.
Thank you so much 😀
Your videos are second to none! Your emphasis on serviceability and recognition that things do break are confidence inducing if I were having you make a van for me.

Loving all the design challenges this van build has. The solutions are innovative. You've inspired me to make cardboard mockups for my 2001 PleasureWay upgrades.
Probably one of the best prestations ever
I love that you’re aware of how a space makes you feel. Not everyone has those sensibilities.

@@HumbleRoad
Where is the best place to get 80/20?
I would just keep the cardboard
First time I’ve seen someone on RUclips do a mock up with cardboard. Glad to see it! You’re a real professional and I love your channel and your work.
Thanks so much 😊
Crockpots and blenders, yes! There are so many considerations that building a van myself makes me laugh. Love the G RV.
I feel I am privileged to watch your highly educational videos. Maestro!
So nice of you
Kino Flows and Grips Apple boxes... Love it!
Option B for sure, no hanging clothes. LOVE THAT! I have that same side table/open area and put my Berkey on it and still have elbow and drinks room.
i love the cardboard cause it does give u the real feel of how everything would be...i cant get enough of these series...
Wow I’m a fan. The cardboard stage. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You may be the best custom van builder (I don't want to offend any other of the group of best builders).
But you are definitely the best card board builder (and I'm willing to offend other builders with that claim).
🤩
Awesome videos you come up with some very great ideas I like how you break everything down in your videos and explain it👍🏻
Van Master, I am but a grasshopper; teach me your ways- so that I too may build with wisdom and forethought. Gr8 stuff, per usual.
I think I'd slam the fridge up against the bed, the bath and armoire up against the fridge, and have all the seating/tables/candelabras up front. But wft do I know? Nutn'! Love the vid, as usual.
Watching your two van builds together has helped me decide which I prefer. Thank you! Great teaching and advice.
Great to hear!
Love the open layout - You might even sacrifice a drawer and get a little loveseat ;-)
Love it when you moved the fridge! Much more comfortable feeling.
It's always amazing watching your videos.
That's what I look for a pro vision of the things.
Well done
You are an effin GENIOUS, I swear.
I believe you! You don't have to swear! 😁

I like the second layout, less claustrophobic for the diner on the driver's side plus you gain a window. Oh and a spot for chachkies! 8-)

Sort of. They are all built with 2x2 framing, which matches the 15 series 8020 that I use in the real build. So storage is going to be tricky.

interesting

A "normal" slide out table, but with a detent 6"-12" from full extension to allow egress without losing all the crockery.
Dropping the galley would help as well.
I know George is going to come up with a winner :-))

Hi George, I have been thinking alot since I started watching your videos ... my design concept would make use of the two chairs in the front, put them on a swivel and make a nice big desk/table (like in the last build) between those seats. In combination with a curtain (light and heat insulation) which goes from the sidewindows to the frontwindow you gain a lot more room. On top I´d opt for a bathroom solution (the one with the open bathroom and curtains) like you already build once. This opens everything up. Let me know what you think about it ;-)
Stay save / healthy!
Btw the Advanced RV solution with the expendable shower curtain might also be an option for your clients
