VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Joe and Lindsey had lived in apartments their entire relationship and were craving a way to incorporate their personalities and creative design abilities. This ProMaster is their second van, and the experience shows through the detail and attention paid to all elements of the build. The kitchen stands out with a custom Quartz countertop, a two-burner induction stove, and a window seal on the sliding door.
A Cedar shower is a beautiful eyepiece with an arched entry, wooden walls, and a Cedar standing platform for a spa feel. The couch has a comfortable appeal with small upper cabinets for extra storage and plenty of headroom. There's a full-size bed in the back with terrific triangle-shaped cubbies accentuating the wall when the doors are closed. Lindsey and Joe created a garage space with extreme tidiness with, closed-off cabinetry and separate compartments.

That secret toilet within the shower is awesome

Beautiful build! Light, clean and airy. That shower is gorgeous, the hidden toilet genius! The entire design, the arch; the slat wall; the countertop; the 2-burner induction cooker(with ample solar); the sliding windows as opposed to those awful awning windows; the separate bedroom; the rear 'garage', all such good choices. The only thing I question is that wall plug being so low and so close to the sofa cushion and the knees of anyone sitting there. Thanks for the tour. Safe travels!

Beautifully built very homey and aesthetically designed feeling clean, beautiful and not suffocating. Love it!
It's always refreshing to see different layouts.
I saw a woman who had her shower/bathroom behind the driver's seat. She had made a closet/clothes hanging area up top, and a slide alcove for the toilet, as you have. Yours is the first I've seen since hers, but I always thought that was so smart, and def what I would do. Really nice build.
Truly custom and well-designed, stylish, lovely ! So often, the feeling of spaciousness gets smaller with walls/partitions, but not here, and each space feels special.
Maybe I can finally convince my husband by showing him this amazing build! I’m hooked!

Stunning. The colors. The workmanship. I love it. The arched doorways are really attractive, but I'll bet the narrow opening makes changing the sheets on the bed even more difficult.

Hi!! Thank you so much! Surprisingly changing the sheets is super easy you just lift the edge up and pop them on- easy peasy. There's definitely weight in the build but it is completely un noticeable driving- this baby is a 3500 so lots of towing power. I think it grounds it nicely and feels really secure when driving. The ledge is intended for a spice rack just needs a magnetic strip- we didn't get that far yet :)

The kitchen counters and cabinets are beautiful! I would probably want a hideaway stove top vs built-in and I would want the bigger & deeper kitchen sink or a small sink with a dishwasher 😂🤞🏻🤷🏼♀️ Joe I have 1 suggestion for you to maybe invent. You said you watch movies on your laptop 💻 in bed which is a great idea! You put the laptop in the cabinet so what about building a tray with a lip and it drops down from the ceiling or under the cabinets and it's set at the perfect angle for the screen & then it hides away when you're done so you don't have to clear out the cabinet.? Just a thought! 😊😉 Not at all critiquing your designs or work, it was just a thought.

Hi Cyndy! Haha we allll want a dishwasher! But the sink is super deep and you're only ever cleaning like a couple of dishes or a single pot at a time so it works out nicely. Also, they do have a cover for these stovetops- its a wooden chop block but I didn't feel like we needed it because there's so much counter space. I hear you for the laptop- so one idea is to add a hanging table but to be totally honest we usually just throw the laptop on a pillow but there's a space back there for a pull down screen so if someone wanted to get a mini projector they could!
